He said the greater your hamstring flexibility, the more fluid of a running movement you can achieve. It s like adding a high grade oil to the pistons of your engine. I personally tested Stefan s flexibility. He could stretch, with locked knees, 9.5 inches past his toes. That partially explains his 4.3 times and his 40-inch Vertical Jump from a stand.<br>We have been endorsing and teaching Stefan s method for the last 15 years. I know without a doubt this is superior way. I have done it both ways. The results, in my mind, are not even close. There is no danger to the lumbar spine area simply because of the very light weight involved. When we trained the Utah Jazz, the players really liked the feel of our method. They felt the SLDL was their second most favorite lift.<br>As far as endangerment to an athlete s spine with our method, our research shows that it is non-existent because of the light weight that is always used. Our BFS Clinicians have collectively trained perhaps as many as 20,000 student-athletes over the last ten years using our SLDL with zero problems. Our BFS SLDL is probably the safest lift we teach. The Hex Bar may be used on the SLDL to even further increase safety.<br> Those of you who have not tried our method, why not give it a shot with yourself and with some of your athletes? You should get some spectacular results. Thanks again to Coach Van De Zande for an 11-type inquiry. Good luck!<br><br><br><br><br>What about the Straight Leg Dead Lift Platform?<br><br>BFS suggests to begin doing Straight Leg Dead Lifts from the floor and then as athletes become more flexible, instead of increasing the weight, they can try it from a box or latform. This will allow athletes to get the maximum stretch possible which, according to Stefan, is the whole idea of this great auxiliary exercise that can be done quickly, in any weightroom with excellent results.<br><br><br>The BFS Straight Leg Dead Lift Platform is available from Bigger Faster Stronger for only $79. It is very solid and stable. It also is constructed of solid steel with a diamond tread top plate to prevent slipping. It is painted with a wrinkle black paint.orld, but Brown students will change it. The profundity of that statement astonished me, it has been with me ever since. <br>To help defray the costs of attending college, both Brenda and Lindsay were able to receive academic scholarships---which was an economic necessity since neither Harvard nor Brown gives athletic scholarships. Says Brenda,  I think the explanation is they re trying to attract people with diverse qualities and talents, and it would go against their principles for them to say they re going to give an athletic scholarship as opposed to a scholarship to the best violinist in the United States, or whatever field that person stands out in. <br>Lindsay and Brenda excelled both academically and athletically at their respective campuses, which only goes to disprove the widespread notion that great athletes cannot perform equally well in academics. Brenda remembers,  Every year after spring break the Harvard track team would run in two meets in H
