Equipment-wise we have exactly what we need, keeping in mind that I also had to address the student body s needs as well. That s because the philosophy of the college is that anything we have can be used by all, so we don t have an athlete s weightroom. <br><br>BFS: Can you give me some specifics?<br>Brooks: On the main floor we have eight platforms with cages and benches that allow an athlete to bench, squat, chin and perform Olympic lifting exercises. We also have machines on the upper deck, thick-handled dumbbells from 5 to 150 pounds in 2 -pound increments, four BFS mega-hex bars, and we have a couple of large crossover pieces.<br><brBFS: Do you usually have three athletes per platform?<br>Brooks: Yes, that works out pretty well with teams. We could probably go four on a platform if necessary.<br><br>BFS: How many student-athletes can be training in your facility at one time?<br>Brooks: We could probably fit 24 people on the platforms, so we can handle a lot of teams because you re not going to find many teams much bigger than that  certainly not a basketball team.<br><br>BFS: What s the approximate square footage?<br>Brooks: About 5,300 square feet.<br><br>BFS: Are there plans to build a bigger weightroom?<br>Brooks: The room needs to be bigger to allow for more machines, platforms and other equipment. The fitness center gets a tremendous amount of use from the Williams community. We ve talked about what needs to be done, but there are a lot of projects going on in the college and the administration tends to like to do one thing at a time.<br>BFS: Do you work with the regular faculty and the student body?<br>Brooks: Certainly, and I try to be as assessable as possible. I get a lot of requests for individual programs, but sometimes I just have to tell them I m just too busy and can only give them general guidelines. But, at the same time, we also have physical education classes for the student body, from beginning to advanced, to help these individuals. <br><br>BFS: Do you work will all the varsity sports?<br>Brooks: I try, and I ve even worked with JV and club sports. Also, I take a backup role with the football and lacrosse teams as they have tit opened up. That was a great place to work out because the Utah Jazz trained there, and Greg and his BFS staff made certain they took their lifting seriously. One day when I was working out Greg asked me if I wanted to work at the gym, and I accepted. That started my relationship with BFS. <br>If there s one major struggle Dan has had as an athlete, it s with his bodyweight. In college it was as high as 272, which Dan says was pretty solid because he was lifting hard. Dan was able to lean down after college; he quit training from 1981 to 1987 to concentrate on his caree. When he got back into training he allowed his bodyweight to go up again, and by 1995 he accepted the fact that he was fat and had to do something about it. <br>To ge lean, Dan went on a low-carb, high-protein diet. Dan s description of a good breakfast:  meat, eggs and other stuff. A bad breakfast:  not meat, eggs, and other stuff. In a few months he dropped 50 pounds.  It s funny, I got down to 206, and I found that I could throw the discus just as far as I did when I was heavier  and my injuries disappeared. <br><br>The State of the Sport<br><br>Although Dan says the US stilK&}Pqw>#039%||uWj}|z᝛w [Q&CB#V)O_/2_}KDBzCdjQ_Tqn&ZHrmdΚOm%D:R/$ƳWW=P_}OƋG[龘/ *|!Q HǏ^c XA#u'cfW'<[X#FvvHiJ$ ; O&Ve b|pU!Bl]i04Y"cF* Hl`P?Iq(1m#06 ˽OMN'ZqlR<~wk2JbcҎJ@F Oʟk;mp06z1aBS9D/<3^efV#cRQcrR HMljrGʞaky1y4j&aK}f5qdF@APiqo'ĆOZm AM78iW(Z-mOB}jh叧mąU; 0sH$;}֡E${xBZGXQpPӭ乹Cr2N_Suym;YndXF畨 ?䰣 %i}Z]N?n~z%7\yuljS$t*"6f/{||o' &Sv/)~(m bWCk46(neaJ-H%a_ Cx6yKGmn oA /\rc@JGr;MYGr@Z_i\mr-AN<]4rFޜn*N;)1=}#Zơe^"Sԩ'w$ol o;kCTg(ҴHԟwg:żH 84hp^^PGk9 g @Dk4y=.xsg1#7)CD3_c#x9%xW%4_qǦ&8hZHi'^n¤%p?
