Coach Lingruen started using the program in 1991, and in the Spring of 1992 the school sponsored a BFS clinic which 200 kids attended.  The BFS staff did a great job, and they reinforced some of the things we had already been doing with BFS. It was a good motivator for us going into the 1993 season, and I believe it helped us win the league championships our first league championships in almost 30 years. What s more, we won outright something I don t think we ve done in almost 60 years. <br><br> Lingruen says that Liberty Center s football players have shown extreme dedication to the BFS program. As a result, Lingruen believes that his players are stronger and in better condition than their opponents, and this has boosted the team s confidence level. Lingruen says confidence and a positive mental attitude are especially important in Liberty Center s football program, because his teams are generally much smaller than their opponents .<br><br>Supervising the conditioning program is strength coach Tim Spiess, who also serves as the defensive coordinator.  In 1985 I picked up my first Bigger Faster Stronger Magazine and I read a feature on Delphos Jefferson High School in Ohio it was just so inspiring. In fact, it was the most inspirational magazine I ve ever read, and I said to myself,  I would love to incorporate these philosophies into my kR„'k}nmZ^[cozR  `ڣ 8FVwzUU6w.#;m[uZ-^[Ѷqe3)-w?2_3s #\}x @`7Xf2OoRIeʥ,&P [ 'B6ځsTjX&bhD?4aIa#xah̐2~U۷+>\rclwv ]p->rۅ[\֏i׷~oim ֶhYvf%t5mܧŠ-Xnt Z٫sbvY(l Um1_) *.Y)>(Z~^>@g'"1ʚzh ]:\ 9zvPӀ D'h/exb*cS9Ԃ>BчeL,N T^/p_!av̥}HӺ{-n]KiƯn +m?峱{[znn/K3 rhkkKu{?۽շn쮻-]IܱtMmm|tVD8D+Jlc IrPO{R{7K77wdo-YVS iԴ #Vt F<]`fyg]&qǤXKEnG=<(1p٬ZIAtc]#5 fs,¢I w#{hShv4QzhmK)*ҮepNlomwߏ/ޣZ kmqB>*GwIz=q]8\,3yz~O䷡ךmnwZ{VνP FC7ܭE<.'B*3ܿgK˷ VwfKOi j0`2$}1EXLBZʠ'\;";k&v}ss1)ϲ^t&{>ثqxzisyXj rf{k ǿ ?u՗SEeiuk(XrrƎ?ӖX>٫؎b;&lmhHr֝T.f'_^=U"̣z6Ij2K҂l%!kY}x(#O? שqn0@bw^`G'AZڛȧxI2eA%~*|!.g S/){6 ẇ Tl& =`銷@vwlC }"+qC[֛{fW,حͶ:eחnYO;e#畹*ױ4֙t H=@4^\zt嶡+߀zJo3ٺwUٹOӍ.y|GO Z3%~#"r  u[YA%8X zkSwnޢ G"X Z x^jT$~2aUq,!q0%CmQGg"GT7Os,SԉJ?Hڜ׊q2{3th kEo$q)#8w{ss3ERsiu,>vb7?Fe|us}!]Fgȓ1I)JWn7Ds?9_}_N85)n2)E+WsOq5i׾Vt1p€__զ,ء*kNeI=1B﹯m]JT/1a`#Q5ہma512۱}S :+kRaӈ4L{muhl-ownЊPqQ6#?@kĎrxkyYi(PtN]OoXy -n" - 0Fr 8AZc-](PJ1; J>OW&[VEKimۉ$!<-_3IE"A] qաX!]3?8`PiꍶpS $ׯt6eQQ?9|p4:퀴?%P$>?уc^0W8(X96@@aqv;!EOAM|BkN+QݫWzU'6(* hH~h:BPNðҾ?"ܶNr)-zxbW|Ƭ8Z~ BңGQU$JZU=G,Ÿ+һҵ n(GP+dM@>#þ-E;1|i)={SΟot9T0;צM&XSwr}^,7 (y O=}3r{Q))WqsƪE>?BM;YeEl>@5:z)y~)@0=G5_amg ۂ+ G]CP( mߺ5)FR~ 0ӥ>tQF=vٺcCHS@z]Ue;yZ͍+'\|pѹ5~8nl y>NTsr_G/3f9/W cỳW_Na9³buOǷo Oǵ^|[oDu{6pU٫TYL>6u&SkB6DG%"F6U/v$IhR{ gY_eWysd/RM>Ahxገ䌐bZݶA+Mg;8Ƽc~W1GǜQ>8SBzeњu9g0^ioCn798)%c?iks!ivi\-ƙm<"V Of?k#IC%zooCr DLcY."C?
