We did the following auxiliary lifts: Snatch (power, snatch pull), leg curl, leg extension, glute ham, straight-leg-deadlift, behind the neck press, push press, and lunges (front, side). We also did a lot of dot drills, flexibility work, plyometrics (primarily box jumps), and speed training. As you can see, we continually shocked the muscles through variety. We carefully monitored training loads, volume, order, tempo, and character of exercise. In short, we had a plan. Notice our test results for March 1998 (Table 2).<br>The 1998 season showed our young men what the BFS system - physical and mental - could produce. We finished third in a tough 3A region and made the state playoffs for the first time in 17 years. Two of our losses were by 1 point and 2 points. We were tied with the region champ with less than four minutes in the game before eventually losing. This year we will graduate 6 seniors. We have completed our second off-season and notice the results (Table 3).<br>Junior fullback and linebacker Brian Derrington says,  Before Coach Brown arrived, I never really lifted weights or wanted to. But since he put us through weight training, I have experienced and learned how important it is and how it can help me. <br>Junior tackle Brian Brasher states,  My attitude has changed a lot toward strength training. I now know what it takes to be successful. <br>Junior guard Jamey Fisher:  Strength training has become more important since Coach Brown arrived. It matters a whole lot more now. It takes on a whole new meaning. <br>Sophomore guard Ray Wyatt:  My thinking about training has changed. Coach Brown has encouraged us and showed us what we are able to do. For example, last year we made the playoffs. <br>Sophomore halfback and cornerback Anthony Webster:  Everyone now thinks about what he has to do as an individual to make the program successful. <br>Sophomore defensive end Tony Butler:  Before Coach Brown arrived I never stepped into a weight room. Now, since I've started lifting and getting stronger, I realize how much it helps. <br>Sophomore tackle Adam McClain:  At first I just wantemp in the off-season. Since coming to Virginia Tech, Vick has added 17 pounds of muscle, can bench 340, squat 515, power clean 280, push jerk 310, vertical jump 41 inches and run a 4.25 forty.<br>Although some strength coaches have a conservative weight training program for their skill players, especially starting quarterbacks such as Vick, Coach Gentry doesn t believe in drastically changing his training for his skill athletes.  We don t train our quarterbacks any differently, says Gentry.  The most important thing for developing  short speed is leg strength. <br>Just as Vick was able to ease into the football program, Coach Gentry has designed a program that gets his players ready for some serious lifting. One of Gentry s first priorities with freshmen is cleaning up their lifting technique, especially with squats, and introducing them to speed-strength training with an emphasis on the Olympic lifts. For example, Gentry says he ll start their off-season training with the hang clean and the push press, then progress through the year to the power clean and the push jerk. He also emphasizes agility training, being especially big on the BFS dot drill, as well as flexibility work.<br>During the off-season, the players spend only three days a week in the weightroom for about 90 minutes. That s it.
