Our success is a testament to how hard our players work and how much they believe in our system, our staff and each other. <br><br><br>BE GRATEFUL<br>Panther assistant coach Steve Brooks focuses on the things that matter<br>by Dr. Greg Shepard<br>Years ago I did some BFS <br>Clinics at two high schools in Georgia where Steve Brooks was a successful football head coach. Now he is he backfield coach for Parview High School, which has one of the winnings football programs in the country. When I contacted Steve recently to set up this article, he asked me if I remembered him. Here is what I wrote to him:<br> Coach Brooks, I have always held you in high esteem as a coach and as a man. Butcks during the exercise. Hence, the FEAR. One of the biggest and easiest ways around this potential safety hazard is by using a spotter. So lern good spotting techniques and eliminate the FEAR.<br>When a spotter is used correctly, there should be no injuries occurring while dead lifting. When the lifter is in the down positin, the spotter should press down with one hand on the lower back and hook the other arm around the lifter's shoulder and chest . The crook of the elbow should be secured against the lifter's shoulder while the fist or hand is placed firmly in the middle of the chest. The spotter and lifter should coordinate the lift together. The spotter coul say  one-two-up . As the lift is begun, the spotter should pull up and back while puhing in on the lifters lower back. The spoter should pull backward as the lifter comes up to get the weight back on the lifter's heels. When the weight is shifted back toward the heels and power line, the dead lift can normally be completed in safety. Just likewhen doing the dead lift with the Hex Bar, the lifter should maintain good form by keeping the lower back locked-in, the chest spread and the head up. <br>A spotter should always be used when doing dead lifts with an Olympic ar except during power-lifting contests or for school records. BFS standards for dead lifts with Olympic bars are the same as with the Hex Bar. It should be noted that a spotter usually helps 50 to 75 pounds. <br><br>OTHER LIFTS:<br><br>The Hex Bar can also be used for a variety of other lifs. Some common lifts that might be performed are shoulder shrugs, upright rows, straight-leg dead lifts, etc. <br><br><br>FOR MORE INFORMATION:<br><br>The BFS Dead Lift and Trap Bar Video provides excellent instruction and visual aid on how to perform the dead lift. The dead lift is also featured in the BFS Total Program Video. See the inside front cover of the Magazine for more information.
