Coach Brown worked with coaches and athletes from various schools in Fayette County on the BFS Program. Coach Vena will use Jim Brown s efforts to generate a greater desire within the athletes to improve physically and raise student involvement in the weight training program by challenging the athletes to break personal records and recognize their success.  We would like to evolve into model programs such as the ones at Poplar Bluff Junior and Senior High Schools, says Coach Vena. <br>Closer to home, Rising Starr Middle School and Starr s Mill High School provide excellent examples of model programs. The Starr s Mill program was in place and running before they had a school facility. Starr s Mill head football coach, Mike Earwood ordered weight training equipment and had it delivered to Whitewater where he operated his summer strength and conditioning program. The desire to improve athletes remains a high priority at Starr s Mill. The coaches, athletes, and parents moved all the strength and conditioning equipment six times before housing a permanent location for their program. This desire to attain strength, power, speed and agility is what Coach Vena seeks to instill in his athletes.<br>Whitewater s facility transformed from classrooms to bare walls to the achievement of a dream through hard work and determination. Whitewater Middle School has demonstrated that with the proper amount of effort and perseverance, Upper Limit success can be accomplished.<br><br><br>__________<br><br><br> Students who consistently participate in the weight training program have made physical improvements. Students need the opportunity to workout in the weight room on a regular basis.  Coach Vena most ceased to exist. As more and more athletes see the amazing results our kids have made they are flooding the classes. Keep an eye out for Ash Fork, on the BFS program, the sky's the limit."<br>Coach McGee has each class begin with a 400 meter warm up jog, followed by the BFS 1-2-3-4 stretching routine. Agility drills, such as the BFS Dot Drill, follow stretching. Depending on the day of the week, either lifting or the plyometric/sprint workout ends the intense activity of the class period followed by a slow jog and final stretch. Coach McGee exclaims, "the organization of the BFS program is what sets this program apart from so many others. The Set-Rep Log books not only allow each student to chart their progress but they also allow me to pretest and post-test each student for an entire semester. I also use the log books as a student planner and count them as ten-to-fifteen percent of their overall grade."<br>Coach McGee has done a superb job with that little school from Ash Fork, Arizona. As his athletes continue to push the limits, they will pioneer a standard of excellence to be followed by all. Coach McGee says, "Several articles in previous BFS magazines served as motivators for my students. They anxiously await the next subscription so they can compare themselves to the athletes in that magazine. Now that we are in your fall edition I'm sure that other schools will use us as an impetus to join the growing ranks of weight lifters around the country." May we follow the example of these dedicated girls and beat the odds.</title
