Says Grazzini, "The Mustangs know the road to the playoffs is in the weight room, and as you exit our power center, the last thing you will see is our banner "CHAMPIONSHIPS BEGIN HERE!"<br><br>-----------------------<br><br>MARKETING FOR SUCCESS<br><br>Grazzini believed the football program had great potential, but only if he could sell the athletes on the conditioning program. "We realized our kids had to understand why this was important if we were to get them committed to the program. Our strategy was to sensationalize what we were doing, provide feedback and incentive, and to continually sell the vision we created." Here are the steps they implemented:<br><br>Use the BFS model of including variety in all phases to keep our kids interested and allow their bodies to adapt to each phase of the program.<br><br>Have all the grades work out together, so that the seniors are role models for the younger athletes.<br><br>Reward the consistent hard workers by making them weightlifting captains, and assigning them the responsibilities of taking their group's attendance and making sure their athletes are doing all their lifts with the correct technique.<br><br>Create strength clubs for achieving goals in our core lifts: clean, squat, bench, and push press. On test dates, as athletes reach these goals, we work our kids into a frenzy and then announce the records, hand out T-shirts as rewards and immediately update our goal board and web page.<br><br>Use set-and-rep logs to chart the weights used, track records and allow partners to evaluate each other's efforts.<br><br>Incorporate the Tuesday/Thursday speed, agility and plyometric program in a circuit, followed by a competitive activity as a culminating event at the end of each session.<br><br>Include a fun activity once a week.<br><br>Encourage our athletes to never settle for average. Push them to go beyond their optimal training zone. Push them to "Be An Eleven." These athletes thrive on being pushed.<br>USiTF̅Zpc;SJf>aoN)m^8%A5^X K #HNI]|JlqVQH0Q8?y coj(4?n that the athletes will get complacent about their success?  No, not with the coaches we have at this school, says Thomas.  With football we will have 17 kids on next year s team who either started for us or who played a ton of at practice and on conditioning than any other school. <br>Another reaon Conrad 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 good eating habits because 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 normally, 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 condition athletes must be in to play football, relative to te 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.
