It was at BYU that I did a movie called Bigger Faster Stronger. It was a hit. Now the secret was out nationwide. Obviously, other throwers went all over the country and they spread the secret. Boyd Eply, a pole vaulter, became the strength coach at Nebraska. His track background gave him the secret. Many of his assistants became strength coaches at other universities. The secret was spreading like wildfire. But to me, it was a slow process. It was amazing to me that other coaches from other sports just could not get it. <br>The NBA did not start getting strength coaches until the 1980 s, and with pro baseball it took until the 1990 s. Even today, if you took all the high school athletes in all the boys and girls sports, you would still find less than half doing the secret. It is very simple. If you want to make your succes happen and reah your full potential as an athlete, you must do the secret. <br>Today, about 95% of college strength coaches use the secret in one form or another. The other 5% use the High Intensity System, which is the only other system to survive over the years. This was developed by Arthur Jones with his Nautilus machines. Some great football teams use this system or it s variations. Teams like Michigan, Michigan State and Penn State. Obviously, you can win with either system. With both systems, coaches coach with a passion. Both systems have their athletes work hard and both produce results. <br>As I have studied both systems, I have found one major difference. The HIT (High Intensity) strength coaches focus on training to prevent injuries with a well-conditioned body. Other coaches and BFS who use the secret, focus on performance records. How fast can you run? How high and far can you jump? How much can you lift? How much can you improve in those areas? Personal records are meticulously kept in order to verify that improvement. That iswhat drives throwers and most athletes. Therefore, even throwers at the HIT schools do the secret. We at BFS are the same way. We constantly measure our performance. We need concrete proof that we are getting better every day. <br>Stefan Fernholm was a Discus thrower from Sweden who came to BYU to compete at the college level. He broke the NCAA collegiate record and was a past Olympian. Stefan became a part of BFS in the mid-1980 s. We owe him a great deal. He bridged the gap between the United States and the old Soviet Union. Stefan was privy and knowledgeable about the Soviet training methods. Te Soviets spent hundreds of million of dollars on developing their system. They took the secret in the early 1970 s and elevated it to new levels. They took training very seriously. Their coaches, for example, could get a doctorate in discus, sprinting or weight lifting at the U this level. Most pro athletes, especially some of the bigger nae players on the A s, hav a respectable knowledge and interest in conditioning. Slugger Canseo even has his own book on weight training for baseball. Therefore, developing a rapport with his athletes is essential for Alejo in guiding and integrating the training the players do on their own into the overall conditioning levels dictated by the team and the game.<br><br> I know these guys and have been around them long enough that if they want to go off on their own and try something, they know to come to me to have a look at it first, says Alejo, who often encourages players to branch out on their own during the winter with his approval, th
