I needed it to work on speed and strength for basketball and track, although right now I'm not doing as much. <br>The first thing she noticed was better tone. She also gained some weight and muscle mass, but keeps the latter to a minimum in order to excel nearly simultaneously at swimming, track, agility and strength sports. Too much muscle has its downside, and as far as women bodybuilders go, LeeAnn gives the group a thumbs down.  They've just taken it a little too far, she says. Coach agrees.<br> I believe the fitness championships, not bodybuilding, set a better example of what weight training can do for a woman, says Sargent.  Our female athletes have a better understanding now of weight training, although there are still lingering stereotypes. Right now we have more girls involved than ever. Some are non-athletes, like our cheerleaders, who use our program for conditioning. It's great. <br>For LeeAnn, strength training was not only the catalyst for her championships in shot, javelin, basketball and volleyball, but also for her confident, positive attitude.  A lot of people don't recognize that weight training makes you feel better. It's like reaching for a personal best every day. It's a real good thing for anyone to do for their body and their attitude. It makes you feel good. <br>Malta's program relies on the BFS core lifts, and BFS training materials have been on Coach Sargent's desk since he began coaching.  We start out on quarter parallel squats, then bench squats, but with each kid we may work out a little differently. We all enjoy the one-rep-max contests we have three times a year. Tha's one of the great things about the BFS program. It brings out team camaraderie in weight training, which for many is only self-oriented. <br>Malta High was recently treated to a new $12.6 million building, after a fire destroyed the former facility. The weight room is an adequate 940 square feet with a full gamut of serious strength training equipment including power racks. LeeAnn wishes the strength training area could be larger, but she's proud of her school.<br> I wish we had more sports to participate in. But we still have great support for all our athletes and a really great academic school, she says.  When we were out of town at the state tournament we took a look at the other school's grading standard. For them, 90 to 100 was an A. For Malta it's 94 to 100. They had people passinoes a series of squats using a barbell, the weight slows down, achieving zero velocity at the end of the movement. This is necessary for safety purposes. But in jumping, there is an increase in velocity, with peak forces occurring near the end of the movement. This difference in velocity curves may not mean much to a 12-flat sprinter trying to lower their time to 11.9, but such training details mean a lot to a 10.4 sprinter trying to lower their time to 10.39. <br><br>Testing<br><br>In addition to their use in developing power, medicine balls are a great tool to determine if an athlete needs to concentrate more on increasing strength or power. A great test, and one that is used extensively in Europe, is to have an athlete throw various weights of medicine balls overhead and backwards for distance. If there is a big difference in the measurements, this indicates the athlete has excellent lower-body power and should concentrate more on BFS strength exercises such as the squat and bench press. If there is little difference in the measurements, the athlete needs more power and should concentrate on power cleans and medicine /t\:6Ŀ@.:6dc*B<zX!(U/6)i8RNo E!TPyy@J5f4y?+}d5kIG3Tӽ+;?hq`7-ѿ{.!sր ,MyJmeBd"̭n2\rΨ`5:ik^G$ӆJH f]4Mc=jwUuUK)dI 1JuN~skk{.em+AZiP+7&8V"8T)?!Kze]\87 ,K\ H\wJr"=#«RJNٱ<6|EYEix'"1\I )lK[%Vqx&C7c vG*tmi[-.}B0>|zᾑM!p3x  /"G1 IKx/aa㒍WWhX89`ȧre;& AcJniZFgJ+B=6uEj׉Ê<2Ssȟ'^Iiw5Nj#diVh>2F[2?27sگ)HV|=]1l}HAԀ)}Ƈ
