The spotters and lifter must work together. The back spotter uses an overhand grip. Do not spot with your hands underneath the lifter s armpits because an experienced back spotter can guide the lifter into a perfect groove (see Figure #8 and #9). <br>Figure #10 shows Coach Shepard pulling slightly back on the bar which helps Matt settle back or rock back. However, notice that Matt continues to pay strict attention to the Six Absolutes. At no time should you relax for an instant . . . let alone for one whole second. You must  Be Tall and stay erect. You must  Spread the Chest at all times to keep the lower back locked into place. Figures #11 & #12 shows Matt rocking forward and up to complete the lift. You should even try torise up on the toes at the very end to complete a full extension. It would be like a calf raise but done in a coordinated, fluid motion like a form tackle or jumping movement. Although, it is important to be in control. You would not want to take a light weight and jump up in the air. <br><br><br>SOME OTHER MISTAKES<br><br>Never round the lower back as shown in Figure #13. Always Be Tall and Spread the Chest as in Figure #14. Never take your feet off the floor or raise your heels off the floor when settling or rocking back as shown in Figure #15. (My son Matt is shwn in the illustrations. He started with the BFS Readiness Program at the beginning of his 7th grade year. Matt is now 26 and works at BFS.)<br><br>WHY WE BOX SQUAT<br><br>The benefits of doing the Box Squat are enormous. So enormous they give anyone a distinct advantage over their opponents at every level: Junior High, High School, College and even at the Pro Level. We do two squat workouts as core lifts per week. One core lift, of course,is the Parallel Squat and the other core lift is a Squat Variation. The Squat Variation to start with is the Box Squat. An experienced lifter could use a Front Squat as a core lift Squat Variation. The Box Squat is the preferred lift to do during the season. There are five reasons why we Box Squat:<br><br>REASON ONE: It s Easy. <br><br>The Box Squat is the easiest of all free weight exercises to do and to teach the Six Absolutes or proper lifting technique. nyone can Box Squat with great form in the first day. Any inexperienced lifter at any level would benefit greatly by learning to Box Squat. Once you learn lifting technique on the Box Squat, you can better uin a bad position when you Box Squat. <br><br>Kent Johnston: Green Bay Packer Strength and Conditioning Coach~QO,Some seniors subjeted several ninth graders to initiation rites involving sexual harassment. Nothing new. Some of the same thingshad happened at a university I coached at in the 1960s. Nontheless, it was a serious issue that had to be dealt with rapidly. Because of the sensitivity of this incident an at the reqest of the school s administrators and attorneys, the school, coach and players will remain anonymous.<br>The coach decided, after much thought, to suspend those involved for the first game. Parents of soe of the ninth graders thought the punishment was far too lenient and were threatening a lawsuit. Parents of the seniors felt the punishment was too harsh and they were threatening a lawsuit. What a way to start a season for a team that had finished winless the year before. The coach and te administration were caught in the middle. Talk about a seaon n the brink. How could you stay focused on football?<br>On August 18th, I flew to meet with the team and parents. It was going to be a Be An Eleven Seminar. I wanted to use that as a ool to deal with the hazing issue and to unite everyone so that the team could moe forwar before the first game. The coach and I decided it was best if I proceeded without knowin those involved on either side. I also met briefly with the principal, who frankly thought the situation was really a grave one. <br>I tried to do my best but was not sure if things were going okay. One thing I do in seminars is to explain how I handle new employees hired to work for Bigger Faster Stronger. What if I said,  Hey you little wimp. Your first job is to scrub all the toilets. How would that make them feel about BFS and me? How successful do you think BFS would be? What would you hink of me as the leader of BFS if I actually did that? Being seniors, aptains and leaders of a football team should be no different.<r>What I actually do is bring each new employee in and tell them ho glad I am to have them as partof ou BFS family. I try to make them feel welcome. I tell them if they ver need anything or have any kind of a problem that we will be in their corner and they will never be alone. I tell them about our bonus program that rewards excellence as greater profits are made. I sile and shake their hand warmly.<br>My next step was to practice that approach. I asked a big senior leader and a small ninth grader to come forward. I explained how hard it is for a ninth grader to adjust to a friendly situation, let alone an intimidatig one. I asked the senior to look at the ninth grader and say,  Hey, you little wimp Go get me a towel. He did, and everyone kind of laughed but they knew how bad this really ooked. Next, I said,  Now let s do i the eleven way. I want you to be like a good big brother. Shak
