Schmitz was willing, however, to describe some of the best qualities of each of the following Olympians he has trained.  Ken Patera was the absolute strongest, Bruce Wilhelm [the first American to snatch 400 pounds] trained the hardest, Thanh Nguyen had the most natural talent, Ken Clark had the most determination, and Mario Martinez [415 snatch, 513 clean and jerk and a silver medalist in the 1984 Olympics] had the most success. <br>In addition to developing new talent, Schmitz was also able to rejuvenate the careers of many lifters who had suffered slumps. For example, Tom Hirtz s lifting had stagnated for several years until he came to Schmitz. Hirtz went on to eventually set an American record in the snatch of 342 pounds at 181 pounds bodyweight. ark Cameron, already an accomplished lifter, moved to San Francisco to train with Schmitz for five months and soon afterwcalled the girls to find out what the effects of our mini-clinic ere on their lifting program. Here is what they said: <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>We worked really hard after you left. We could really tell the difference. It was neat showing other people how to do the lifts. <STRONG>Brianne: </STRONG>We learned a whole lot. We now watch others and can easily pick out their mistakes. <STONG>Cherisse: </STRONG>It's a lot easier to do it now. We notice a difference. Sometimes we tell the guys about their mistakes. It makes me feel cool that I now know what to look for.&nbsp;</P> <P>We thank Coach Brad Smith who has developed athletes who are self reliant and have such a wonderful attitude. We wish them well on their quest to win their third consecutive national title.</P>nd have plenty left to go on to the United States Championships and get a chance to represent their countF(j;2ò1tr6Apķ~n36<["B^1TMpU^3{=Ũq;:PvZ,g3J6ِg\AqȻꓦ.񩮍K) 8s1Ro}ȭq798۵dJ'P?~'38&Z :HиH_mAͷk%Ub`23dA6ةd:"L14C2;pɂH9gusɒ+֤3nY%$9Ubz(Km8/ MNhճcW%ȑZ`:o{1v\ *r lb22( % n qHgڭc՝#nH)!@*|<73a7[4k2}5qTo0ż/d`;Vߝ=[:t_Htw^e2$3>cp@/z-2_Emx kFRWyw6=v۰?P#j?Ab5>kq3Ha;7F\].;pt>eAʷ7j0qߡ2v1fQ57琋Αk˻pO=vc[k…ڹIB_;+Ǽk}uE|֍IP?o@;3YZkvC)fKKaw`%5fo di[o:]'~+uKk$ ` q7yDu +PkKـS sy?_wxK77[!ض=w}`گ9A_ `(ߜB59*lNSt&_hȸmk/J8 GO#4FmwKٸm ?׏ r8s"=@;Y{TyipEaSE0'i ٍBpĚiZ\JIiz$ __冀 l "9.DMh]g\],(:ydav%~u uR;FOdQa]'GNnp'ր+2euv;^?4~cꏩ]\;C!r*պ첲r[GY&36Y,igXBQ"K7A˖agZ,U֒N9^k`1GIF atҊ8 ç0.>^ ̣im[ږIA=-e H\;{Ih]H%DOL#933}jmZe]Z!؜O#hgsȲ-a@x1y|Zoh _jZ`#R8N,KvEjv^!+I6U{'Sm9bjbUu0ֹoRs$E-]x.e(Um"\tY (#4@ܶ2e!Aۢfwq ~F1nk^ $ [|`Vh{pmMG$mC{Uz9dl{Vm6jSe&YK"oeSjw0HX@ <0;%u-6 [6]Ael{3/g UlܙQq#ŷK#7pT$z}Pz} ݍ 0$i`ٵ58\V?&'ާ <֙yKD205$b!ѡRyZs?Od$\v)+pz@Xrx@ p{ח.z.k+ m!D?M8lZUH#C)͘.C2󬮺«bG W_ozܤMOծ`'4$Mjd#YiI$4gQN+۾KcG2ejqA^ƛ̼ZaH46qK,",ȮtԼ>)8O>syZ#/F1ȥ/KoO7MiuqQf:+r} 9,ߛaҪ/}rgix@e ^3<}qPM,IsTnDӣ eU+x(_Q?7cߘ3{#`[i?x_ I+j_?ɦVY$řXϫBR$rϕxz??
