Whitney's knees came in on the Squat, remembered Coach Cross.  That was the first thing we fixed. <br> My knees are a lot better, said Whitney.  I have no problems in softball or any lift now. I have really improved. As a freshman, I was the slowest on the team and I didn't start. Last year (2nd year) I was one of the fastest and a starter. <br>Krystal Kennard, MNU softball coach, explained,  Whitney is now a lot more aggressive and confident player. <br>During the summer of 1998, Coach Cross wanted Whitney to start training a little, try some Olympic competitions and see how she liked it. Whitney said,  If I didn't like it, I didn't have to stick with it. But I love competition. I decided to go for it. <br>Whitney has won gold medals at every Olympic meet she's attended and she passed her Level One U.S.A. Weightlifting Club coaching course.  I never thought I'd be winning gold medals. I didn't think I'd do very well. You should have seen me when I started. It was pretty ugly, laughed Whitney.  But I've worked at it. It's not something that has come easy. <br>One of Whitney's major goals is to qualify for next year's collegiate national meet. She currently has a 67.5 Clean and Jerk and a 45 kg Snatch for a total for 112.5 kilos (247 pounds). Whitney needs only 7.5 more kilos to qualify.<br>Coach Cross says,  She'll get there if she wants it bad enough. Whitney competes regularly in St. Joseph, Missouri which is a national hot bed for Olympic lifting. Whitney praised,  Wes Barnett (national champion) and Dennis Snethen have helped greatly. I'd like to give them credit. <br>Whitney lifts twice per week during her softball season and states with conviction,  You are not going to get big muscles from the way I train. I've lost body fat and gained muscle. My clothes are not as tight and I'm faster and a lot stronger and more flexible. I believe I have improved my looks through lifting. I just want to hit them over the fence and I want to gun'em at home. That's the best feeling. <br>Whtney is majoring in athlee the knees-in problem from the bleachers or squatting.&nbsp; When squatting the knees-in problem will surface on the way up.&nbsp; The knees are usually alright on the way down when squatting.&nbsp; The knees-in problem is more difficult to correct and puts unwanted pressure on the medial collateral ligaments.&nbsp; The first step is to yell "knees" to the athlete while squatting.&nbsp; This is a signal to force the knees out over the toes.&nbsp; </DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left>This signal may or may not work the first time.&nbsp; If not, the second correction technique is to lightly slap the inside of the athlete's knee as shown in Figure 4.&nbsp; This gives the athlete a kinesthetic feel of the problem.&nbsp; The cure usually happens after only a few light slaps.&nbsp; If the problem persists, then video taping the athlete squat so he/she can see themselves will almost always do the trick in those few extreme cases.</DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG>Knees Forward:&nbsp; </STRONG>(See Figure 5)&nbsp; Many beginning squatters will want to lift their hills off the ground and bring their knees forward as the main part of their descent pattern.&nbsp; This puts too much pressure on the patella area besides being horribly ineffective.&nbsp; You may correct the knee-forward problem by letting the athlete hold on to a partner's hands for balance as in Figure 6.&nbsp; The athlete should "sit tall" and "spread the chest" with.Sa߬q)3QnguRBIs%wb止]$+y9#s0b_!!!?uҤEEm薦V8Y m-^E z0*EecH[-e;Uy ~B0uJۉ+FRMqެ c;0GjK]@8*(TLbڞ*7!VhE[QL.y Hjp()6ZGjrGB7P0=U}?Mݧ&QDR^`#3ǰ׽eGە\I>5A'/w#KUu5
