In his prime, still weighing 190 pounds, Mike performed a 400-pound standing press (a lift that is no longer contested), snatched 308 and clean and jerk 400. These results put him well into the national rankings, and are impressive even by today's standards.<br>In addition to his love of lifting, Mike instilled in Casey a disciplined work ethic.  My attitude towards my son is that if you're going to be an athlete, why not be the best that you can possibly be? Mike also says that much of what he learned about coaching philosophy he learned from the time he spent in the Marine Corps, which he joined after college.  The Marine Corps taught me how to achieve success through hard work and determination. I try to coac with that same attitude. <br>What does Casey think about his dad's coaching style?  He's really intense, and I guess you would say a perfectionist--but I know it's for the best. As for Mike's attitude toward his premier athlete, he said,  Casey is a model son. He's very focused, an outstanding student (with 3.83 grade average!), and he works his butt off in the gym. People ask if he's stubborn? He's 16 years old-how would you answer that? He's normal. <br>In addition to the guidance and support of his father, Casey has another weightlifting role model to inspire him, Olympian and still one of America's best lifters, Tommy Gough. When he lived near the Burgeners' home in Bonsall, California, Mike provided Tommy coaching support and a plac to train.  Tommy was always one of Casey's idols, says Mike, and adds that Casey would measure himself in comparison to Tommy's accomplishments.  Whatever Tommy did at his age, Casey would always want to match or beat that. He wanted to have the same success as Tommy. <br>Casey agrees,  I've been looking up to Tommy since I started weightlifting. I admire his courage and motivation--he's 100 percent focused on lifting. There were times when we would invite him for dinner and he would say  No, no-I have to finish my workout first.  <br>As for non-American lifters, Casey admires Stefan Botev, a Bulgarian who could outlift the super heavyweight Vasili Alexseev despite giving up over 100 pounds of bodyweight to the great Russian.  I love watching Stefan lift--he's so amazing, so incredibly strong. He also admires 1996 Olympic Champion in the 238-pound class Timur Taimazov of the Ukraine.  His technique is good, not great, but he's very strong, says Casey.  Whenever he lifts, the weights look like nothing for him. <br><br>Training for Gain<br><br>As a coach, Mike believes that Casey's greatest physical talent as a weightlifter is his athleticism.  Casey's Snatch is much ahead of his clean and Jerk at this point, and that's because of his neuromuscular abilities. Casey's technique is awesome, and he has great speed, but with a 297 snatch he should be Clean and Jerking 363 to 375. I have to get him stronger. <br>To make Casey stronger, Mike is focusing on  strength cycles that emphasize heavy pulls and even bodybuilding
