Now squat all the way down while maintaining great balance and technique. Hold the low position for three seconds and then stand erect again. SeePhoto #3 with Baron Holmes who is a 9th grade receiver at Cathedral City High School in California. I also did a BFS Clinic there last June. The previous lifting experience of the Cathedral High School athletes was limited. So Baron went from a raw rookie to  looking good in one day. <br>POWER BALANCE LIFT #2: Place the bar on your shoulders like you are going to do a Back Squat while using a Snatch grip. Again squat all the way down likeBaron and balance yourself. Now, see if you can press the weight all the way up so you look like Photo #3 again. The trick is to see if you can press the bar up from your shoulders while maintaining perfect balance.<br>POWER BALANCE LIFT #3: Do Drill #2 but now see if you can press it up, hold it for three seconds and then stand erect; all without losing your balance!<br>The athletes are yelling at me from their stations,  Coach Shepard look at me! I can do it! As it usually turns out, well over half the athletes can do it. This naturally leads into a great ending as we talk about the great success of the day as well as the future. Hopefully, you can use this article and do the same thing. Good luck!<br>Recommended Sets & Reps: Two sets of five reps on each lift.n. Thank you Massillon Tiger Football Family, for inviting me and the Southridge Spartan <br>Football Family to be a part of this  Experience of a Lifetime. <br> isn t that big, says Coach Zavala of the school s weight room.  But we don t need a big fancy facility. What s important is what the kids get done. <br>Coach Zavala and Coach Rezak work as a team in the weight room.  Scott has helped me a lot, says Sharon.  He s patient with me and we ve designed a program specifically for the girls, plus some extra auxiliary lifts. It s year-round as well. They train three times a week during the school year and four times per week during the summer in June and July. It s my entire volleyball team and I d say m attendance is 90 percent--not bad for summer. Of course, the end of the weight training coincides with my try-outs so there s extra incentive for the girls to do it. <br>So why is Coach Zavala so sold on the BFS program?  I ve seen the gains and improvements. We jump very well, the girls are quicker and we have fewer injuries. We can play a two-hour match and ask who s sore the next day, and no one utters a groan. Three years ago that wasn t the case. Their bodies just don t wear down now. <br>Not surprising, Coach Zavala is now weight training wo days a week herself!<br><br>A Senior Coming <br>On Strong<br><br>The changes in the sport are not just for the young girls growing up with the opportunity. It is there for female athletes of all ages who are ready for a new challenge and appreciate the opportunities and new acceptance of women in sports.<br>For Val Jalajas (pronouncd like yell-at-us) a 22-year-old senior at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, North Carolina, the vault came knocking at her door. A former child gymnast, Val was taking a tennis class from the track coach. The two began talking about form and biomechanics. Soon, Val was doing some flips for the tennis coach. He immediately
