We maxed out and the results are listed in Table 1. We asked our young men to give things a chance to happen. Give success a chance to happen. Believe you can, and you'll find that you can. TRY! You'll be surprised at ho many good things can happen. You must believe and commit yourself to it.<br>Our lower body lifts consist of the Squat (front, back, overhead, one-legged), Bench (flat, incline, dumbbell incline, towel, close-grip press), Clean (power, split, hang, clean pull), Hex (Trap) Bar (deadlift, shrugs). We did the following auxiliary lifts: Snatch (power, snatch pull), leg curl, leg extension, glute ham, straight-leg-deadlift, behind the neck press, push press, and lunges (front, side). We also did a lot of dot drills, flexibility work, plyometrics (primarily box jumps), and speed training. As you can see, we continually shocked the muscles through variety. We carefully monitored training loads, volume, order, tempo, and character of exercise. In short, we had a plan. Notice our test results for March 1998 (Table 2).<br>The 1998 season showed our young men what the BFS system - physical and mental - could produce. We finished third in a tough 3A region and made the state playoffs for the first time in 17 years. Two of our losses were by 1 point and 2 points. We were tied with the region champ with less than four minutes in the game before eventually losing. This year we will graduate 6 seniors. We have completed our second off-season and notice the results (Table 3).<br>Junior fullback and linebacker Brian Derrington says,  Before Coach Brown arrived, I never really lifted weights or wanted to. But since he put us through weight training, I have experienced and learned how important it is and how it can help me. <br>Junior tackle Brian Brasher states,  My attitude has changed a lot toward strength training. I now know what it takes to be successful. <br>Junior guard Jamey Fisher:  Strength training has become more important since Coach Brown arrived. It matters a whole my parents have always encouraged Brenda and me to pursue an academic career above all else, so when the opportunity to attend an Ivy League school presented itself, I couldn t even consider another alternative. During my visit to Brown I fell in love with the campus and the people I met. It was the most wonderful environment I had ever been in---I felt so at home there. On my recruiting trip a student said,  Brown is a microcosm of what the world could be like if we could all just get along. Harvard students may lead the world, but Brown students will change it. The profundity of that statement astonished me, it has been with me ever since. <br>To help defray the costs of attending college, both Brenda and Lindsay were able to receive academic scholarships---which was an economic necessity since neither Harvard nor Brown gives athletic scholarships. Says Brenda,  I think the explanation is they re trying to attract people with diverse qualities and talents, and it would go against their principles for them to say they re going to give an athletic scholarship as opposed to a scholarship to the best violinist in the United States, or whatever field that person stands out in. <br>Lindsay and Brenda excelled both academically and athletically at their respective campuses, which only goes to disprove the widespread notion that great athletes cannot perform equally well in academics. Brenda remembers,  Every year after spring break the Harvard track team would run in two meets in Houston. When inevitably we were asked what school we were from and we said Harvard, people would say,  Harvard has a track team? And of course whenever our Harvard athletes won their events, everyone was just shocked. <br>Although many superstar athletes would argue that academics interferes with their training, Lindsay says that the discipline that
