The Guidebook is being used as part of their daily coursework. Instilling character and championship principles extends far beyond the weight room. It can even reach beyond the arena where the practice and competition actually take place. In our case, we are teaching character and championship principles in our classrooms! With the support of our administration, we all share a common goal of teaching young students the principles of character building that they will not only use in their sports, but also in their daily living. And through a good strong character, championship principles can be used in any facet of life to gain the success that they will all be reaching for-not only while they are teenagers, but also as adults.<br>We will continue to use the BFS Readiness Program here at Centennial Junior High School. I have found it to be a program that sells itself to the athletes. When done correctly, and with commitment, it builds champions. Already, our upperclassmen have made great strides. At the high school, the advanced BFS in-season program found our varsity football players gaining strength in poundage, and height in their vertical jumps. This itself is the testimony that sells the program. The kids see results and believe. When these younger athletes begin to believe at an early age, it will then lead to nothing less than winning championships at Centennial High School.<br><br><br><br>" <br><br> As an administrator, it is very exciting to see thirty-nine junior high students commit to a program which will assist them in reaching their athletic and personal goals. I am amazed that not only the students, but also the parents make the sacrifice to bring their children to the school at 7:00 a.m. to participate in the program. The students are genuinely sold on the program and are maintaining their enthusiasm by seeing improvements in all of the tested areas. In addition to the obvious benefits the students are gaining physically, they also are learning the discipline which is required to be successful in all aspects of their lives.<br> Doyle Denney, Principal<br> Centennial Public Schoolport. But saying that weightlifting makes you shorter because many elite weightlifters are short would be like saying that basketball makes you taller because most professional basketball players are tall!<br><br>The Numbers Game<br><br>Risk of injury is another area of concern for some coaches and parents. In this regard, it s instructive to look at the many studies that have measured the rate of injuries associated with weight training compared to other sports. For example, a study published in the November/December 2001 issue of the Journal of American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons cited research showing that in children aged 5 to 14 years, the number of injuries from bicycling was almost 400 percent greater than from weightlifting! Also, in a review paper on resistance training for prepubescent and adolescents published this year in Strength and Conditioning Coach (Vol. 9, No. 3), author Mark Shillington reported in a screening of sports-related injuries in school aged children that resistance training was the nominated cause of 0.7 m_x|QAjǿ%ʴ#m"V3Ǘn?\BlTHQ݆\p4~T Ozb*vAҪm>9]5{ƃͼ=wƕ]6;)1JuS)i*J^Y!QTugv!URz!.eQGY?ܿ21˪wV.m&?TrX -=%V^H7?(i^DP&*d'-s~, _=*Z ItXB$A,T֥hX <1h!CPb7 Jھ9gp-T"G5'W #*74Z -6fL0x-Lg#цhvV#*›W`<(F4!OZbO¨w9M$c`U$cJKh:{Sgj_՗$GȚ}ҡ4Os`I@$5\Ԓ"ۂ޸ a|\$z"WT2Tr+0c9hw(\A; nJ5^[-%,IceU9{Kz|sc<In"+Oe{mmkg%@hbV$J,5 D3GWJ2 brP$FH^7N_ϑG{fyg`CZLʨ=NO/ROc?wM. }3PDD)"nZTkQH?=Be5\ =!٣ 2. 3BK帑!X^Rm# ٔ//2id7Im <#O,V{!h,F3|L[t!DAI 9Zt#6&w)YRK,j%n…h.3?Μ[ȏTG圝M,tU5݋]d_ʙנ H&;,u΀HR LڊjL< 20ZIJ-̞(yFCtJҝKDiֵ,%ڠaOYuУDZ8pNi"I;E1qqp/<kY E]@lqE,v5Wⴛ$_ $A+w?xysE4h;BVS'_ZM̃N1C T 3[l^GMruvZ\mi:9'drA0D*,\$>iezCqbBU,>|mi8X*J7_7^Ō,|}F(ZՑMv-F[;G*MyLo6oZ~
