This will keep the knees aligned over the toes.<br><br>#6 Eyes on Target:<br><br> This is such a wonderful phrase with many applications. Use it all the time in the weight room and during a regular practice. Your target can change depending on the lift or the situation. Training your athletes to keep their eyes on whatever target you dictate will pay big dividends.<br>Squat: eyes on target straight ahead. Power Clean: during the jump phase, the eyes should be on target high on the wall or on a specific point on the ceiling. In one of our feature articles in this journal, an athlete has his eyes down, thus his chin is down and thus out of his power line on a cleaning movement. Can you find it? If you do, you should start smiling as you come to realize that these Six BFS Absolutes are not only for high school beginners but advanced athletes as well. It also means you can become a strength and conditioning expert very quickly.<br>Sprint Stance: Eyes on target three feet in front. Sprinting: Eyes on target straight ahead. Tackling: straight ahead. Jumping: straight ahead.<br>What about when you are three points behind in a football game with only two minutes left and your opponents have the ball. What is your target? The ball!

You need to hammer them about the mental aspect so much that when they get to a meet they re so sick of hearing it they ll do anything just to shut you up!<br> The mindset I work toward is nothing matters except performing well. You perform; afterwards we talk about the problem. If a shoe flies off in the middle of a run, it doesn t matter. You need to eliminate all the worry over any of the things we cannot control at the moment. You need one goal, and that is to compete well. Everything else can be taken care of after. <br>Randy works hardest on his freshmen and sophomores.  The older ones usually get it. They do what we say and stay focused. It's the young ones that need the attitude adjustments. <br>Using Vision<br><br>Sure, having a young Jackie Joyner-Kersee walk into a weight room is every coach s dream. To work with the best, and make them better. To work with them not just on a college level, but a career level. Yet, as the athletic field is changing with the new influx of women, many things are changing.<br>Like Dana, not every fmale athlete comes in looking for a career. Women aren t generally as single-minded as men. Many see a career and/or family in their future, not sports. Like Dana, many come without the testosterone-driven aspiration to be the best and beat out all competition at all cost. As with Dana, developing talent takes patience, a virtue that is becoming increasingly valuable in coaching women athletes.<br>Coach Ziraldo and Dana s story are about real people--not the superstar athletes that will go on to set Olympic records, but the people who still experience athletic events the way they were meant to be--as a source of personal accomplishment; as a strength and conditioning program for the mind and body; and as an exhilarating and fun pastime that includes teammates and camaraderie.<br>On the coaching level it s a reminder that every athlete can benefit from a coach s skills and influence.
