A study on 7th graders weight training has drawn preliminary conclusions that no interference of bone growth resulted from weight training. Dr. Mel Hayashi, a noted orthopedic surgeon from Thousand Oaks, California, states  The BFS Readiness Program should provide great benefits to the junior high athlete. I have no concerns as long as the athlete has good technique. Dr. Hayashi has been a chief orthopedic surgeon at the past Olympic Games and has been a chief resident at the Mayo Clinic. Many strength coaches of major universities throughout the nation have b.<br>The Warhawks bought into the BFS program with a vengeance in the summer of 2001. Johnny Ayers, a starter on both the football team and the baseball team, explained,  We re working hard for a reason. It s not just to look good on the beach it s sports-specific training that you know you re doing for Friday night football or Tuesday night baseball. You know it will be there when you need it. Andrew Baird, who would play key roles as a halfback and an outfielder in his junior year, later described the impact BFS had on the players. He saw the weekly successes the athletes experienced in breaking personal records in the BFS program as a confidence builder for each participant. He also believes that the camaraderie generated by working hard together built team cohesiveness that carried over to the season.<br>Coach Gjormand believes that the success he and Coach Leib pursued started with the championship football season in 2001. Despite a bitter, last-minute opening game loss to rival Oakton High School, the Warhawks knew they had turned the corner when they won a key district game in overtime, 29-22 over W.T. Woodson High. Runs by Andrew Baird, Ryan Ginley and Joe Lewin supplemented B.T. Good s passing to move the Warhawks to a 2-1 record, duplicating or exceeding their win totals of each of the three preceding seasons. Ginley indicated in a Sun Gazette story on the game that  an off season workout program called BFS had been invaluable and as a result the Warhawks were  bigger, faster and stronger. <br>At last the Warhawks had won a close game against a quality opponent after three years of frustrating losses. The year-round BFS training program was making a difference. The Warhawks continued their newfound winning ways, capturing the district championship for the first time in five years.<br>The Warhawks then advanced to the regional playoffs against Edison High School. Madison prevailed 20-14 in overtime, led by Tyier Lee s 156 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Coach Leib feel 7th grade boy or girl can learn any lift safely and correctly. It is loads of fun for these kids because now they can lift just like the older high school or college kids. They can build explosive power, strength and self-confidence while learning correct athletic positions which can be used in their sport. <br>The second piece of equipment is the BFS Training Plate and the BFS 10 lb. Bumper plate. When doing a Clean or any lift from the floor, the bar needs to be elevated high enough to get into a safe position about 8-9 inches off the floor. This allows for the back to be properly locked-in and the chest spread. By doing this, the athletes are able to place the lifting emphasis on their hips and legs as opposed to their backs and arms. You simply cannot do this with a five or a ten pound steel plate because the bar is barley off the floor causing the athlete to have to bend almost completely over just to pick up the weight. Both BFS Training Plates are the same size as a 45-pound plate. The 5 lb Training plate is ab
