No problem . . . 7.2 seconds. All team members complete the BFS Dot Drill in under 55 seconds with most in the mid 40-second range. The first time they did this drill, no player could do it under 55 seconds. <br>Coach Cecchini times his players quite frequently in the 60-yard dash. The times of the players reflect an average of ten trials taken on different days. So the times are very accurate. Position players improved, on average .30 seconds in the 60-yard dash in just four months. The Barbe players experienced a 43% increase on the Hex Bar Lift for an average lift of 426 pounds, a 26% increase on the Power Clean, a 36% improvement on the Parallel Squat, a 45% increase with the Box Squat, a 31% rise in their Bench Press
