Nothing made me feel better than to see my coaches and teammates walk in to see me. To know you were all thinking of me all the time meant a lot. Even after my biopsy, I heard we beat South Rowan because Israel took time to call and tell me. To see all the #12 s on your uniforms let me know that you cared and that I would have rather spent the last six years playing football with nobody else in the world. I love all of you.

Our 15-pound Olympic Bars with the 5-pound training plates are perfect for teaching the power clean.

We bring a set of these to every one of our clinics, and each time the coaches are sold on it. It makes teaching the power clean and power snatch a snap. The Hex Bar is great to have because it takes all of the risk out of doing deadlifts. Even beginning lifters can deadlift with perfect technique with the Hex Bar.

10. I am the Athletic Director at Northern Valley Regional High School, Old Tappan. I need the definitive answer to this question; Do your weightroom supervisors in the state of New Jersey have to be certified in strength and conditioning? Is this a law? Please advise. A lot of New Jersey Athletic Directors are very confused and do not know this ruling. Thanks for your help.

Do your weightroom supervisors in the state of New Jersey have to be certified in strength and conditioning? As far as I know, there is no law that says a weightroom supervisor at the high school level has to be certified in strength and conditioning. So the simple answer to that question may be "No."

At the high school level, coaches usually teach classes, and as such would be certified teachers or working under the direct supervision of a certified teacher. Further, many sport coaches at the high school level (especially at smaller schools) also administer and supervisor all the strength and conditioning programs for their athletes. At larger schools, there are some coaches who handle the strength and conditioning of all athletes, but this is rare.

At the college level, as far as I know there are no laws governing the educational requirements of strength coaches. As long as a strength coach can produce results, he or she can gain employment. (BFS Editor in Chief Kim Goss was a strength coach for the US Air Force Academy for eight years, and at the time his college degree was in journalism, not physical education.) Although most college coaches delegate strength and conditioning to their strength coaches, often they will have some influence on the training protocol.

Why get certified? First, let me refer you to a video clip that we have online at www.maxcast.com/BFScertification. Dr. Rabinoff is a full professor at Metro State College in Denver, Colorado, who has served as an expert witness in over 300 lawsuits. In this video clip he discusses the reasons why he believes certification is important.

Our position at BFS is that certification provides evidence that an i:tRis&m=67|K\iRQd<{ByNv}{#x 9@7ng6!M< 4Ȼn'C4=^˔7rP5jct5u䯴Me<{K: # V8izz)𱷍_3'ʗLY y.N+6.
