Our female athletes have a better understanding now of weight training, although there are still lingering stereotypes. Right now we have more girls involved than ever. Some are non-athletes, like our cheerleaders, who use our program for conditioning. It's great. <br>For LeeAnn, strength training was not only the catalyst for her championships in shot, javelin, basketball and volleyball, but also for her confident, positive attitude.  A lot of people don't recognize that weight training makes you feel better. It's like reaching for a personal best every day. It's a real good thing for anyone t do for their body and their attitude. It makes you feel good. <br>Malta's program relies on the BFS core lifts, and BFS training materials have been on Coach Sargent's desk since he began coaching.  We start out on quarter parallel squats, then bench squats, but with each kid we may work out a little differently. We all enjoy the one-rep-max contests we have three times a year. That's one of the great things about the BFS program. It brings out team camaraderie in weight training, which for many is only self-oriented. <br>Malta High was recently treated to a new $12.6 million building, after a fire destroyed the former facility. The weight room is an adequate 940 square feet with a full gamut of serious strength training equipment including power racks. LeeAnn wishes the strength training area could be larger, but she's proud of her school.<br> I wish we had more sports to participate y 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 resut, 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 their potential. Whatever is inhibiting them beyond their conscious control needs to *Y]_q;Nv)-n<٬4hҬ<V!)_0szM4H_o9*%s,vI#4h=onݻZRyg9m}42#]fmj!ys<~YB`Hr"0O9^0q[hEUxBA!h/]zunxj'Ot'r(io-k y緙'Fh4r!*è Q#ogX9Cz̋a*HL|leY/̺εi.~ %Yy"){|O:h*3k!xBNi:k.U)g#IW^Εkhݏ79+D4"9mUWڎ:o2<~SgaHE @ȱTU/ZFwYR-9dAӷM"iLX dd)xhxSռMVpldVˇ6D ZTjZx򹫻cI J"}Ű:,wzL4gJ֞?IFǔwetDcT3RI_/oBt1+WvKCjK)F:GK~N9$*^\X̗Wpʌ_O]m<q֨'i'Ezog&S OB2|;hmCӢf߯d9g2 (3d#ZMYYvNRRIѡڟ)1"_HXO:THJKa` &1.<['jKJ3%N gZ@gڈwT; 4:IYNQ20 ]**E,ӶÑ^r37Ť$)G FIh%!N \X!nOmKeUH-ܷUӥi'{I<۴xTg٢> %ͽ` 9-F+P䱘M\3ٸ"~c#@p/puKR>M7kgZ*hH#r$I OLEmǯгTBX;gHqep9e6V]\[h`33 QnoíhՋ\/uW[M-%Pk)SդGO&m[gf[>UŋLuȅXl{{wY>! +m̢cipq>Fhj?L2RV{hiN(O4Z*Ur tMc5$m鷩 ֕+0rHUn DiVGb(5-2@2+T Nwq 8VI\ӸìmZ]_e$tUZv0rz7Jy~i$Ao'P;ƂrV8[Lی* RZX6>\Et-@ƽs7V9E8vJ[yYd?-'.s Tp޴nջ)EP:}~0-ěԎ@R^kסHA*j _*KQPơ>tEb_7h*+#9;Z{ӍA$Nȯ㱆Ì-Cs3'§i6iT7=8$G͵ Fէ_(=_Sk{OaX%[Z(bIh۩W^8lUݵWLoO]ZDJ*ǐ"`#pi:jϋ-c,}^UPF#n*:+DZP|OU!NFm@M#l^ N'?!) eSi8n;>tQg{pO7veQ o݉a!N Ts6lB\ἴQm&  73UOW˩L-;1RtQ#oaJkسK@Z@C^ݞNރ_P+O@˖L`P"=L"cMPMqv}Ki;kf,('6ragѡW?SkZLj |].h|_r\,]۴_-DڅOF JՉ:9 .<,kn}n)81IuOPO3Heoڵduj"\p~dn(ȠSN))݊yHa4 %i@{ b3nU؂Mz^~/
