She lifts four days a week and squats heavy, but uses moderate weights on her other lifts. Chryste is 5-foot-7 and weighs 134 pounds. As with her weight training, Chryste performs plyos four times a week. She also does box jumps in the gym, hurdle hops, and standing long and triple jumps on the track, in addition to her sled work. She says that she never gets tired of training; still, she knows that a good athlete needs more than just the gym."I look around and see a lot of people today who are choosing not to finish school. Most of them would rather work and earn money than get an education. In my family education was valued, but in other families how soon you can earn money is more important. But if you put it in perspective, education is a vehicle. In sports, it's a way to get a free ride. If you can be an athlete who can make the grades, then you're more of an asset. Kids who just concentrate on sports don't understand that schools also look at whether you're going to be able to stay eligible all those years." <br><br>She has not forgotten her own academic pursuits, and says that her parents won't let her forget them either. "Remember, my mom's a teacher!" While med school had been a high priority when she entered Stanford, she's now thinking the Ph.D. program and a career in psychology may be more to her liking. Chryste has been very active as a motivational speaker to junior and high school students, and she feels much more work needs to be done to motivate kids today. "Opportunities are out there if you try to do well in school and excel in your athletic endeavors, but a lot of kids don't know this," she says."Collegiate sports for women are only now really being recognized. I'm excited for the young women who are in high school because things are changing so fast for women in sports. Just look at what Atlanta did for women's baseball. And, now we have women's hockey." <br><br>Chryste hopes that the public will give more recognition to women track athletes in the years to come, and not just during the Olympics. "We get recognition, but I think we deserve a lot more. People are just now getting used to the idea of women as real athletes. <br><br>Another thing they have to remember is that women athletes are usually around for a long time!" she says, referring to the statistical evidence that women track athletes don't reach their peak until age 28 and the <br>empirical evidence that women distance runners compete well into their 30s and 40s. "Next year should be my peak," says Chryste, who is 27. "I'm not saying that I want to compete forever, but the next Olympics are right around the corner. Could you resist the opportunity?"ut on their own during the winter with his approval, that is.  When I design a program, we sit down together and go over what makes them tick, what can make them better ball players. Their input is just as important, as far as I m concerned, as my knowledge and experience. There s got to be mutual respect. <br><br>Alejo s Challenge<br><br>Alejo is as much involved in coaching his team to a great season as he is in continuing his personal quest to integrate solid weight training programs into the off and in-season training for every baseball team, at every level.
