Pro football players were not even close to that. I wanted my high school football players back at Sehome High School in the state of Wahington to be like those throwers. So when I returned, we parallel squatted like those throwers and practiced sprinting. We timed our players twice per month. We did not do a very good job with power cleans but we were superior at the parallel squat. See Figure #5 and you will see what I mean. Little Greg Frere at a bodyweight of 155 parallel squatted 355 pounds and ran a 4.6 forty. Look at his depth and form: eyes on target and being tall with the chest spread. This photo was part of a story that featured my program at Sehome in the old Strength & Health magazine. We did a good job at only two of the ten components we have today, but we did those very well. It took only a year to get phenomenal results. I had 50 players run between 4.5 and 5.0 in the forty. That was 1970. Can anyone match that today? Sehome had an enrollment of 1,400 in grades 9-12. We played mostly larger schools and ended up playing Snohomish High School in a mythical state championship. They had minus 77 yards. <br> My next move took me to Brigham Young University, where I worked with football players and the power lifting team. Paul Howard, a lineman, gained 45 pounds in one year, reaching 275, and improved his forty from 5.2 tbetween the Green Bay and BFS Strength and Conditioning programs.&nbsp; I shrugged, "Well Ken, we're either on the Green Bay&nbsp;program or you're on the BFS program."&nbsp; We both laughed.&nbsp; Coach Johnston remarked, "Bigger Faster Stronger has a great deal going for them, especially for the high school coach."</P> <P>Coach Johnston believes in Box Squats and Partial Benches.&nbsp; These two lifts form the backbone of the BFS program.&nbsp; They make everything hum along like a beautiful song.&nbsp; They create a huge advantage during the season especially at the high school level.&nbsp; They create a nice advantage during the off-season with speed and jump drills.&nbsp; They help the athlete avoid plateaus in all lifts but especially with the Parallel Squat and Bench Press.</P> <P>Since many wieght rooms do not have a Power Rack, we at BFS evolved to the Towel or Padded Bench Press instead of Partials.&nbsp; I learned the Box Squat&nbsp; and Partial Bench Press secret in Los Angels decided to use what is now referred to as the  first Hastings game as a point of refocusing.
