Many strength coaches of major universities throughout the nation have been asked when an athlete should start weight training. The vast majority responded:  In Junior High. The Eastern Bloc countries start their athletes' weight training at the age of 12. In addition, we know weight training is one of the greatest ways to build self-confidence and self esteem. A seventh grader can receive just as much satisfaction going from 85 pounds to 100 pounds on his bench as can a 12th grader going from 285 to 300 pounds. However, we also believe strict supervision is a must along with the teaching of proper technique to make the BFS Readiness Program work in the Junior High. Programs like the BFS Readiness Program are completely endorsed and approved by the National Strength Coaches Association.<br><br><br>HOW DO I GET STARTED WITH THE PROGRAM?<br><br>I have broken down the Readiness program into five sections from Unification to Graduation, but first lets discuss one of the most critical parts of a successful program.<br><br>UNIFICATION<br><br>All sports both boys and girls in grades seven through twelve should be on the same strength and conditioning program. In the vast majority of schools every sport does their own thing. Invariably with the multi-sport athlete this causes confusion and it is terribly inefficient. Many great dominant football programs have all grade levels use the same system of offense, defense and terms. A dominant strength and conditioning program should be the same way. All coaches should use the same terms, the same warm-up, the same flexibility, lifting, speed and plyometric program. Begin this concept in the 7th grade wth the BFS Readiness Program.<br><br><br>GET THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT<br><br> The BFS Readiness weightlifting program highly recommends several trend-setting pieces of equipment. First, the Aluma-lite bar (15 pounds) and the Ultra-lite bar (30 pounds). These bars are very similar to a regular 45-pound Olympic bar except for the weight. They are designed specifically by BFS for training and learning. Even a smaller 7th grade boy or girl can learn any lift satowering 500-foot blasts were great but I was more impressed when he hugged his son so often after circling the bases.<br>In our next issue (Spring 1999), we will feature LSU's remarkable baseball program. They are the two-time defending NCAA National Champions. This will be an in-depth feature article with great interviews from players and coaches. They do what they are supposed to do and the results speak for themselves. Look forward to it!<br><br>_______________________________________<br><br>Coach Shepard s 1996 Prediction:<br><br> In the baseball future even smaller players wl graduate.<br> My family is the most important thing in my life. I like to surround myself with people who really care for me. I have about three friends here at Marshall that I d trust with my life. You can have all the money in the world but it doesn t mean anything if you don t have friends.<br> Every time I come into the weight room or on the practice field, I want to get better everyday. I look at myself at the end of a workout or practice and the goal is to always get better. <br>Doug Hodges is from Miami, Florida and attended Southwest Miami High School. There is no way Doug should be at Marshall or any other Division I school. He is listed on the program at 5- 10 but he is probably closer to 5-8. How can he play the safety position? I mean, you d think Doug would be easy t A#;)jO;o'b9JTbY}IfZleb;UV4Rrv'8̥U@P; H ldN6?$*zЁ60<_2ش𛨂r֫1ZOd:KȢ!i.u?%\`]6:\2kt>*~n:_J6ުg5]U+kV|7Om9[ ׫G]H.6!y+H.h7L+JQ.yl|`լaHi+Q}ka12s)Lc([p:m%zmf[ ! ǖʧŁ 6գDHk7ff6p:$*Dw^+Bw8*kW4 Z}֠QB gE4}ztaXsl[ǾG`y0si))Wv/4EV7ZjP+B"я4"́.#F]ԟ"V$US3WM<4<8r $5X~?KȓPC w-/.
