She never drinks sodas and eats a lot of salads that also have a meat of some kind.<br>Rachel believes that the issue of women lifting is not relevant these days. Julie Jestus concurs,  I m not too concerned. It s accepted by athletes and non-athletes. <br>Rachel just laughed,  Sometimes it s more fun to be stronger than the guys. Julie remembered that because of her lack of experience that she was a little intimidated by lifting at first but after the first week that all ended. The opposite was true of Rachel as she grew up with free weights.<br>Everyone on the team loves breaking personal records at such a rapid pace. Julie says that it gives you more incentive and you just know you are going to break some records every workout. She likes seeing results every week. Rachel says,  Oh yeah, I broke at least eight records every week. Rachel s favorite lift is the Hex Bar Lift with the Towel Bench a close second while Julie s is the Parallel Squat. Julie Benches 120, Squats 165 and Cleans 100 pounds while Rachel Benches 185, Squats 235 and Cleans 135 pounds. Julie has a 26-inch vertical jump and Rachel s is 19 inches.<br>Julie feels her work in strength and conditioning has helped her greatly.  It s helped me with my speed and not getting knocked around. I can also play a lot longer now. <br>Rachel is also very positive.  I was probably the slowest on the team when I came to Regis but now I can keep up with anyone. Also, I can box out much taller girls. <br>After graduation Julie might try to play in Europe and then go into landscape design. She has a lot of possibilities because of her 3.9 GPA. Rachel is a marketing major. Her plans include the possibility of a sports marketing career or trying her hand at coaching. She should graduate with a 3.7 GPA.<br>Julie counsels high school athletes to be disciplined and to break your records every time. Rachel gives this advice,  Don t let frustration get the better of you. Keep pushing. If you can lift as a team that s what you want to do. When everyone is cheering for you, it s a cool feeling. <br>It was a cool feeling to be at Regis University. Everyone was a true eleven. A dream interview. Go Rangers!r>Brandon also has some strong feelings on drugs, alcohol and tobacco.  I have no tolerance period on drugs. I just don't understand the people who take them. They are illegal for a reason. I on't like being around people who do drugs. In fact, no one has ever asked me to do drugs. Everyone knows my position.<br> I never drank in high school. I don't like drinking. There are too many things that can go wrong. I will never let anyone get behind a wheel that's been drinking. I don't smoke or chew. I tried to chew once and it made me sick. I don't see how you could ever smoke and play sports. <br>Brandon was selected to represent the team on a 15-player Leadership Committee.  We serve as a liaison between players and coaches, said Brandon.  If there are concerns, we bring it to the coaches. An example might be things like uniform changes. However, we would also confront a player who might be involved in any negative type things. Although we have never had to do that. <br>Brandon is getting his degree in business and plans to graduate.  If pro football does not work out or when that's over, I'd love to be a pro wrestler, laughed Brandon seriously.<br>Brandon believes working hard applies to all aspects of your life. Concentrate also on your grades. My dad always had me work hard in class. I've seen a lot of guys with talent sit home because they didn't have the grades.<br> I believe you should put God first. I'm from a Christian religion and that is very important to me. My father passed away not too long ago. I think some people take their family for grated. You need to cherish every moment. I believe that honesty and loyalty are everything.
