One USADA requirement is letting them know where I am at all times. If I m not where I m supposed to be when they come to drug test me, that s one notch against me, and three misses like that and it counts as a positive drug test. There s no way that a USADA athlete can hide from drug testing.<br><br>BFS: Do you think Olympic lifting will ever shake the common perception that all the good Olympic lifters are taking drugs?<br>Hamman: I don t know. It s really starting to clean up, and they have formed the World Anti-Doping Association, which is doing some international drug testing. It will never be totally clean no sport is ever going to be totally clean but as for the top lifters in the US, there s absolutely no way that we can take drugs because of how often we re drug tested. Most other countries don t have the random tests like us, so it would be possible for them to still take drugs although I m not saying that they are.<br><br>BFS: What s the training atmosphere like at the Olympic training center?<br>Hamman: Everybody is here to be better, so in the gym there s always kind of a psyched feeling. When I m home I train by myself, and I find I cannot lift as much weight.<br><br>BFS: Was it tough for you to leave your home to come to Colorado Springs?<br>Hamman: I had never been away from home until I moved here. I ve got two older brothers and they re married and have kids, so I have all these nieces and nephews and it was hard for me to move off and know that I wouldn t see them except maybe twice a year. But overall it s been good they re all really supportive of me.<br><br>BFS: What did your new coach Dragomir Ciorosian do for you when you moved to Colorado Springs?<br>Hamman: My lifting was going pretty well already, but Dragomir made some little changes, like keeping more upright on my pulls.<br><br>BFS: What parts of your lifting are you currently emphasizing?<br>Hamman: My biggest concern in the past was jumping under the bar, but I ve gotten over that now. My problem lately is that I haven t had the opportunity to lift anything big; for instance, at last year , our biggest rival, because J. T. continued to open those holes. Wall agrees,  That s pretty much my role here, to open up the holes for our tailbacks. But when I get a carry here and there, I try to take advantage of it by making them miss or running over them. <br><br>Dreaming On<br><br>Concerning Wall s goals for next season, Van Halanger says,  I know he really wants to get his 40 bettjS!(i1$Qp,L{s/Ňm,< i_ضBY4[rYF YGWpdy~Q$TW\XAgSn:UYV5v%sSP8; .t8@ͱvU *}NRf#"Z2(u[TKf[?NjqlwoW0 LK-0NͶn078~iZ&i6ڤ7b:rcVlx '|RHF7ilٲ֧̹|5i[7ZE| tP,)ed a_REzޔ>8r]/ wOo{j z%DFBQԫwV#Q-R8k֙qgBRM* tΣL[XcU{ P }fce?⛠V99 Sͨ~م͛@Qȷcis`MkyfF?\7r!SLАHwr +v#aPdGul%>{`S\3K8^ A9ȔV4i)BGѝMtmGy&,W#j-$1*~%#qF#`Թuec]@ Y2Dxi izZ0[I%eLzL3B7b?釄9[#G$Ptj*FQUC2kU(-r< yY Vx,+ӒҼZ}LT s-xZ݈SkN_ zs,ˋ%=/1vMKF&I M#(GoMh>,ZZ(:аqÈaU-ˎGit+(KEl;w#ch"2oz埗.tK4HZUxD 3'3N҅i kʵۓ|m_Vl7:j+sE[VlfĀ᯶C]y|B!IdR"ܦoPW~qF ==[ZX-"HQFTAȏtKdR\N@I4;.RMd<,(upC)AɼhDQVfi#cK 1]8.Aq׫j 258&q s[iFMZgck*!)P:&!j0aD:wv- u$^po+@#ŃU+ȝudS+wm|!}ܟ[H hM;jV $7zuh#dT!8(J,@qe6lUڄVo._t2'x'Io/dJQӄL#n -o`:]w$ <2$zS9_0e7s| MYxz\x_/ʏ"sD-幺gU'bEw
