A partner can be used for balance as shown. Squat down to a parallel position and  be tall and  spread the chest . Concentrate on locking-in the lower back. <br><br><br>Image 12 - Correct Squat Position: This athlete is in a great Parallel Squat position. The chest is spread as wide as possible. This is the key to keeping the lower back locked in tight. He is also sqautting tall. This keeps the back and shoulders from rounding. This athlete is in a strong and safe position.<br><br>Image 13 - Correct Hex Bar Position: The athlete is in a powerful and safe position as he demonstrates the Hex Bar Dead Lift. The head is up. The shoulders are back. The chest is spread and the hips are down. Always concentrate on locking-in the lower back when picking up a weight.<br><br>Image 14 - Dead Lifting Safely: The spotter places one hand on the small of the back and hooks the crook of his elbow in front of the lifter s shoulder. The spotter also places his fist on the lifter s sternum and pulls the lifter back on his heels to begin the lift. Never lift a heavy weight when the pressure of the weight is on the toes. It is much safer when the pressure is on the heels.

At the college level, you can pretty much make your athletes do what you want them to do. At the pro level you can t because what they re doing is going to have a direct result on their paycheck. You have to remember this is their profession, so you have to be flexible. You need to compromise. <br>Compromise, Alejo points out, must be made because it s the best course of action, and this is where experience counts.  Earlier in my career I may not have been quite so apt to question someone s opinion or theory on conditioning, he says.  Now that I m older I ve got no problem telling someone what I know and where I stand compared to what they know. I believe that s a problem with new coaches. Until you have stability in the profession and considerable knowledge gained by experience, it s tough to tell someone, no, that s not right. <br><br>Alejo s influence extends beyond the A s playing field, another indication of his success at this level. Most pro athletes, especially some of the bigger name players on the A s, have a respectable knowledge and interest in conditioning. Slugger Canseco 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, that is  When I design a program, we sit down together and go over what makes them tick, what can make them better ball players.
