He d also like to see more expansion of the weight room, particularly for cardiovascular equipment. He has a strong feeling he ll see the entire school s athletic program following the BFS guidelines; but with the cost of a stair climber hovering around $3,500, he admits that the latter wish of his dream-scheme may not be realized for a while!<br><br>The McCluer North Clinic<br><br>Dr. Greg Shepard went to McCluer North High School in St. Louis last June. Coach Jim Schottmueller wanted extreme motivation, especially at the end Coach Shepard split the athletes into 8 groups and had a competition which also encompassed leadership and helping each other. They competed all day but the last event was special. <br>Each 8-man team had a 415-pound Olympic set which was placed outdoors at the base of a hill. A 1,000-yard course was laid out: One hundred yards up a gradual slope, then a steep section and around a pole to a soccer field. The final leg was to come down the hill and across the finish line. Each team had to run the course twice. The first timething techniques for stretching are especially valuable. I would estimate some athletes I have worked with have boosted their performances by two- to three percent from following his guidelines. In my area of coaching the sprints and hurdles, that can be the difference between being first or coming in last in your event final. Dr. Ripley uses his modified active release techniques to enhance muscle functioning and also to expedite rehabilitation of injury.<br><br>BFS: What problems do you encounter with your freshman sprinters?<br>DS: A sprinter needs to have equality between their front-side and backside mechanics. What I find is that due to a lack of basic strength, our younger sprinters often have developed significantly greater backside mechanics, reducing front-side mechanics. As a result, braking action increases, severely restricting force application as they sprint down the track at maximum velocity.<br><br>BFS: Some coaches believe that by the time an athlete reaches college, many technique flaws are so ingrained that they are virtually impossible to correct. Do you agree?<br>DS: Not at all. When we get a new person in, it s exciting to see that there are things we can do to help them improve. Of course there s no denying that it takes tremendous patience to correct technique flaws. Muna Lee is a perfect example. When she initially enrolled she couldn t lift a 45-pound bar. I told her,  You watch---this is going to be fun; once you get a little bit stronger it ll make a difference on the track. Specifically, she would be able to apply the forces on the track in a mechanically different way that would make her faster. And it was true; her new training enabled her to run significantly faster than she did in her senior year of high school.<br><br>BFS: How do you use testing in your program?<br>DS: It s vital to test athletes to pin down what is keeping them from achieving thei
