We don t have the luxury of the numbers some of the schools have. Most of the best athletes have to play both ways, so our conditioning must be superior. As the 1998 JV team grew into the 2000 Varsity team, their lifting sessions became more intense and dedicated.<br>Our project has been successful. We have restored our self-esteem. Winning has also brought the community together to support our football program.  It is all worth the effort, to see our players faces after our division championship, said coach Bass. More students have expressed an interest in playing next year. Our next challenge is now on our doorstep. Can we sustain this energy level? I believe so, with the help of the Bigger Faster Stronger Program.<br><br>" <br>The BFS Program provides a plan the athletes love, because it is motivational. It promotes goal setting, record breaking and teamwork. Athletes can set PR s everyday! The athletes want to continue lifting. It is no longer just hard work, it is FUN!<br> --Howard Thomasne s story can be an inspiration to those who want to develop greater athletic speed as well as learning a lesson in real life.<br><br>DALE BASKETT AND BFS<br><br>I first met Coach Baskett at the NSCA Convention in Los Angeles last January of 2000. He was a featured speaker who really wowed all that heard him. We talked at length. It was like a light bulb being turned on for me.

In other words, I have always felt that straight ahead speed does not always get the job done. I had always just shrugged my shoulders and said of a great player,  Well, he s just got football speed. <br>Coach Baskett has narrowed down his athletic speed program into three easy-to-learn components with a variety of rills to develop the kinesthetic feel for his system. oversy. A book entitled Little Girls in Pretty Boxes discusses some of the apparent abuses in gymnastics, especially in regard to promoting eating disorders.  The book painted the entire sport with a very broad brush, says Ayars.  Some of those abuses may take place at the elite level, which is what you see at the Olympics, but the same can be said for other sports at the elite level. Truthfully, the sport that I hear receiving the most criticism for pressuring girls about their weight is cheer-leading. <br> If you look at the gymnasts who compete at the junior Olympic level,
