Says Lindsay,  When I was in high school the football coach was an avid reader of Bigger Faster Stronger magazine, and his weight training program was a product of what he had read. He helped my high school track coach work out a program based on what he had learned from BFS. At present, both women have progressed to the level where they can power clean 190 pounds; Lindsay can full squat 250, whereas Brenda can full squat 280 and parallel squat 350.<br>While in high school the twins had received recruiting offers from many colleges with strong track programs. They had assumed they would be going to one of these colleges, but after high school they decided on Ivy League universities instead. They made exceptional choices.<br> I wanted to pursue a degree in cognitive neuroscience, and I knew that my textbooks would be written by my professors. On my visit to Harvard, I was asking questions of persons who were on the cutting edge of the research they were doing---I was really drawn to that, says Brenda. When I visited, the thing that people kept telling me was,  You ll have new roommates, and every day you ll learn something amazing that they ve done. And I just thought that would be one of the greatest things I could get out of college---the interaction with so many incredible people. You can be inspired so much by their energy. <br>Lindsay majored in mechanical engineering.  I decided in high school that I wanted a degree in engineering so that I could pursue a career in prosthetic design. I figured that if I took an athletic scholarship, I woeam competition they have been state champions four times, runner-up once, and third three times. As a result of their success, Conrad s athletes receive invitations to many tournaments, giving them the opportunity to wrestle more athletes from A and AA schools.  As far as our program goes in the state of Montana, I would say that our wrestlers work as hard if not harder at practice and on conditioningthan any other school. <br>Another reason Conrd s program has been so successful is that the coaches have adopted a very sensible approach to making weight. Says Llew,  We explain to the kids that it s important to maintain goodeating habits bcause if you don t, at some point if you keep losing weight you will give up muscle and strength. You re better off becoming competitive at a weight that you weigh normlly, rather than trying to crash diet to something that is not even close. If you weigh 176 and you want to wrestle 171, that s probably all right because over a season you ll get there. But if you weigh 176 and think you re going to wrestle 152, you re probably making a serious mistake. You won t be competitive when you get to 152. <br>According to Llew, who serves as an assistant coach at Conrad, conditioning is a major factor in wrestling because the action is virtually nonstop.  The conditionathletes must be in to play football, relative to the condition they have to be in to successfully wrestle, isn t even close. However, aerobic training is not the answer.  If you re training for a six-minute match, you want something that will train you eight or nine minutes really hard because you re trying to prepare for a very short duration, high burst of energy. Exactly what does jogging for an hour and a half have to do with that? <br>Llew believe that BFS is a great program for wrestling. He likes the flexibility component of the program and specifically the BFS dot drill.  The dot drill is great for wrestling, says Llew,  because when someone is trying to take you down they re shooting at your legs, so the ability to quickly move your feet is an important skill. <br>Eddie is a firm believer in power cleans and squats for wrestling strength.
