The earlier they begin, the easier it will be to maintain this type of training for a lifetime, which truly will help them to maintain quality in their health and longevity. As for vanity, they will also look far more trim and vibrant than women who have never set foot in the weight room.<br><br>How Fast Can a <br>Woman Go?<br><br>Michael Yessis is a conditioning consultant in Escondido, California, who has worked with many professional athletes. In the November, 2000 issue of Scientific American Presents, Yessis was quoted in an article by Bruce Schechter that "genetics only determines about one-third of an athlete's capabilities. But with the right training we can go much further with that one-third than we've been going."<br>Fast-twitch muscle development may have tremendous health benefits for the female, but that alone will not provide her with medal-winning records. BFS trains athlets for sports, which is why the program includes such athletic training methods as plyometrics. "When a sprinter runs," Yessis explains, "her foot stays in contact with the ground for only a little under a tenth of a second, half of which is devoted to landings and the other half to pushing off. Plyometric exercises help athletes make the best use of this brief interval." <br>In volleyball, basketball and soccer, it's been estimated that women can be as much as eight times more likely than men to injure the anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL, which helps stabilize the knee. According to the American Orthopedic Society for Sports Medicine, each year approximately 20,000 high school girls suffer serious knee injuries, most involving the ACL. Several theories have been proposed to determine why women are at such a high risk; here are just a few:<br>" Girls don't usually get involved in sports at a young age, leaving their coordination for sports behind that of males.<br>" Because women have less muscle mass than men, they may rely more on their ligaments for support than on their muscles.<br>" A woman's wider pelvis changes the alignment of her lower extremities, causing a woman's thighs to angle inward in a knock-kneed position and the lower legs and feet to turn outwards, putting the lower extremities in a vulnerable position.<br><br>The BFS program specifically develops one of the most important muscle groups in preventing ACL injuries: the hamstrings. Researchers have determined that the deadlift and the power clean are great exercises that work the hamstrings, but for direct work you can't beat the glute-ham raise. A BFS auxiliary lift, the glute-ham raise enables the athlete to work both the knee and hip extensor functions of the hamstrings, unlike the leg curl which only works knee extension or the back extension which only works hip extension.<br>Men have been breaking their own records for centuries. It was once believed that breaking the four-minute mile was impossible. Not only was it achieved, but with each passing year the times became faster. Today, the limits to females' performance are not even in sight.<br><br>Pain and Flexibility Differences<br><br>Studies have shown that women are more apt to report symptoms of injury than men. Research conducted at the Neurology Research Laboratory at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, shows that the forebrains of women subjects were significantly more active during pain than men's. With the same level of stimulus to the forearm, women reported more pain than men did. 9"k|W?W @íF~ch1J NƔ*/_v:IDx`OQ>_>~\ |#[j(+B:vs+Rzs۹|Y#lmJ!\}e{JYTn%\z 4;v@ ȑ^^׷e* 7KXVI]kMOp( 1Q呧OUf2.c`1H|vCy(f(`~eAw3YHgkmqAA? fBys@<*[l՞C 1JfN%2xh>y+F5 , A큮&WE,~\{e!7nWU 9 $ؼ )=l+!,z͋[ӚW~+;u x b"I?d7=M߻9RI( H$>R}J): 5-Z2FP;/+u-T#48"2 㽐FĀ!^ zqZ];R ղ6V UmS%yz8(a$}|_ ED@Jc=L "# =h[H:#p:>X1* b1gQGr>`(ߜB59*lNПSt&_hȸmk/WJ8 GO#4FmwKٸm *?׏ r8s"=@;Yf{TyipEaSE0'i ٍBpĚiZ\JIiz$ __冀 Ӧfl "9.DMh]g\],(:ydav%~u uR;FOdQa]'GNnp'ր+2euv;^?4~cꏩ]\;C!r*պ첲r[GY&36Y,igXBQ"K7A˖agW ~v$59T)V]Ʋv=1!,:]b9By*kIc*~#(7a!pj0z2h<1[JY!%=vcʱm4I-nxY2U .MȏF桍pJŒB
