For the first 45 minutes of the hour devoted to weight training, the core movements are the same for all players. These lifts include the bench press, incline bench press and military press for the upper body; and the clean, snatch, squat, step-up and lunges for the lower body. Also, deadlifts are performed for eight weeks in the winter and ten weeks in the summer.<br>What did the Terps do differently this year in training?  The biggest thing we did this year was challenge them to a degree that we weren t sure they would be able to accomplish, says Galt.  Some of the workouts, some of the intensity---we weren t sure that they would physically be able to accomplish without overtraining. But they stayed with the program, and by the time the season rolled around in August, they were the strongest, heaviest, fastest team we d ever had. <br>When asked what advice he would give to high school players who hope to someday play for Maryland, Galt replied,  One of the biggest problems with high school athletes is time constraints, because many athletes are multi-sport. What we recommend is that the high school athlete try to figure out a way to become more consistent in the weight room, even if it s only 45 minutes, twice a week. We have many kids from well-established high school programs who come here, and when they come here they just explode---and that s because we train year-round. That s why it s always nice to have athletes from high schools who were on the BFS program---they have a good foundation. <br>One player whose potential exploded under Galt s strength training program was junior defensive end Durrand Roundtree.  Durrand is a very special athlete---he s the strongest player we ve ever had, both technically and realistically. He weighed 230 when he got here and he s 265 now at 6 3 . In the weight room, Roundtree increased his bench from 325 to 490, his power clean from 280 to 355 and his squat from 490 to 760, including a workout in which he made 515 for 21 reps. As for speed, his forty improved from 5.00 to 4.68 (electronically timed), and his vertical jump (no step) increased eight inches from 28.5 to 36.5 .<br>Galt says that it s easy to recruit at Maryland  because we tell them the truth. Our goal is the maximization of individual athleticism. When a player leaves here, we want them to feel that they did everything they could <br>to be the best player they <br>could be. JV and club sports. Also, I take a backup role with the football and lacrosse teams as they have their own primary strength coach. In fact, they use many aspects of the BFS program.<br><br>BFS: When you first came to Williams, were the students receptive to your training methods and how do they respond to what you are doing now?<br>Brooks: Most of the comments were positive about my changes right from the get-go. The students here are scholar-athletes and as such naturally want to not just what to do, but why they are doing it. If you can justify what you are doing and why this would best for them, that goes a long way. This includes my choices in equipment purchases and weightroom design.<br><br>BFS: Are the athletes working out at the same time as the regular student body?<br>Brooks: Yes  that s probably the hardest part of my job: to coordinate any kind of lifts, especially with teams. With teams we either go early in the morning when it s not too busy, or after 7:00 p.m. If we try to go between 4 and 7, that s when there are no classes and everyone in the world is in there.<br><br>BFS: If a non-athlete is using a platform, the
