How is your health?<br>Hamman: It s really good, and I get regular full physicals.<br><br>BFS: Do you know how many calories you do eat on average?<br>Hamman: I had my diet tested three days in a row by our sports nutritionist. I don t remember the exact results, but it sure wasn t anything like 10,000 calories a dy!<br><br>BFS: Do you have a special diet?<br>Hamman: For me, my diet is high protein/high sugar. The high sugar sounds ridiculous, but whenever I ve tried to get off sugar and chocolate, my lifts fall apart, so I have to keep my sugar up.<br><br>BFS: What does your sports nutritionist say about that?<br>Hamman: I don t tell her!<br><br>BFS: You talked about how you liked the drug testing in powerlifting. How tough is the drug testing in Olympic lifting?<br>Hamman: We have the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), and I get drug tested randomly probably 18 times a year, and then I m tested at every competition. One USADA requirement is letting them know where I am at all times. If I m not where I m supposed to be when they come to drug test me, that s one notch against me, and three misses like that and it counts as a positive drug test. There s no way that a USADA athlete can hide from drug testing.<br><br>BFS: Do you think Olympic lifting will ever shake the common perception that all the good Olympic lifters are taking drugs?<br>Hamman: I don t know. It s really starting to clean up, and they have formed the World Anti-Doping Association, which is doing some international drug testing. It will never be totally clean no sport is ever going to be totally clean but as for the top lifters in the US, there s absolutely no way that we can take drugs because of how often we re drug tested. Most other countries don t have the random tests like us, so it would be possible for them to still take drugs although I m not saying that they are.<br><br>BFS: What s the training atmosphere like at the Olympic training center?<br>Hamman: Everybody is here to be better, so in the gym there s always kind of a psyched feeling. When I m home I train by myself, and I find I cannot lift as much weight.<br><br>BFS: Was it tough for you to leave your home to come to Colorado Springs?<br>Hamman: I had never been away from home until I moved here. I ve got two older brothers and they re married and have kids, so I have all these nieces and nephews and it was hard for me to move off and know that I wouldn t see them except maybe twice a year. But overall it s been good they re all really supportive of me.<br><br>BFS: What did your new coach Dragomir Ciorosian do for you when you moved to Colorado Springs?<br>Hamman: My lifting was going pretty well already, but Dragomir made some little changes, like keeping more upright on my pulls.<br><br>BFS: What parts of your lifting are you currently emphasizing?<br>Hamman: My biggest concern in the past was jumping under the bar, but I ve gotten over that now. My problem lately is that I haven t had the opportunity to lift anything big; for instance, at last year s Worlds I was sick, so my strength wasn t there. I woke up with the flu the morning I competed. My snatch was still pretty good, because it s not all about strength, but when it came to the clean and jerks I just couldn t clean it was just so heavy. I missed my last two warm-ups; I was lucky to get my opener. It was disappointing because I had been looking forward to clean and jerking 529 trAQae*%W "=CQ]7ŗ9wnTu&.&;S |d~sm **?*A.i Bmɪg"mywT?Un ijF G7RUYw|zG,7>o:tsy{:W[0B̬Ioa FGy\ħQ\I/4eîg?\u?_߁/ָӧK4cz}=:CY~χObТ:~ n>:b:Ru~:\RtLl(}n?kix(~Z}*<~_<^ޞu?]StiWCk?$>)7QJop-yJ}ϏQϧ͜36?4s{|^;8XSʝ=fĽSNk޿Fp][:9>sO?Ϝ6\~G/,z>~ON쾱?^b^˥O?5GaoU~OOjj8V_ }WTo2f~(,=?j5S?_~7DY}?[?csG??u[r+48r[*fY6kvN?9s?%>Z9|?d޷o=zWz`S8la>z_=QORO 66o m2`K/mĐ^: Z.DYw鸦y,"x+ԚtS\Ӱ nNM*y-5Kh9ilX 5
