He works on speed 3 times per week and emphasizes sprint mechanics and overspeed training.  The weakest point in sprinting, claims Coach Schmidt,  is sprinting mechanics. We work on running form and explosiveness through the ground with the ball of the foot. Plyometrics help our athletes understand this concept. Therefore, Box Jumping, Bounding, Hurdle Hops and Skips are an important part of our overall speed development program. <br>Coach Schmidt advises,  Keep your drills simple and not too many. Get really good at a few things. It can be like having too many plays in football. He loves pulling sleds and does all of his plyometric drills with weighted vests in order to get used to what football pads feel like. He starts with six pounds and works up to a 12-pound vest after 12 weeks.<br>  Everybody looks good in shorts, challenged Coach Schmidt,  but what about when you put the pads and helmet on.<br>Coach Schmidt has been coaching for 17 years. I asked him about the differences in athletes over this span of time.  Players have gotten stronger but the big difference is in their speed. Players today are much faster. The high school coaches are doing a better job every year and every year I think they just can t get any bigger but they do.<br> I would advise the high school coach to work his players hard on the Squat, Clean and Speed Development. Be able to watch, see and measure improvement in whatever you decide to work on. Organization is the key.<br> You also lift to prevent injuries. For example, we have two Glute-Ham machines. I feel that exercise is really important and believe it may be the primary reason we have only had one hamstring pull in two years.<br> Look at what is important today. Do today what will make you better tomorrow. Consistency is the key. You have got to stick with it not just get fired up for a couple of weeks and then quit. Make sure you get good rest and excellent nutrition. It all comes down to execution and motivation. Help your players understand the why and how of what you are doing. : Regarding injuries, I understand Dr. Michael Ripley works with your athletes. How has he helped your program?<br>DS: I ve known Dr. Ripley for more than five years, and he is undoubtedly the best sports doctor I have had the pleasure to work with. We ve incorporated a great many of his ideas into our program; his breathing techniques for stretching are especially valuable. I would estimate some athletes I have worked with have boosted their performances by two- to three percent from followl:å+YZS4IҺ:# qU*9 X+%FSPѭBwWNe[0?==W.Il\*dL ?YQпo{QO* ~~= l/O֠ 6??*?98Gm>~m?:tL_\Fs)oi:X ?ޓC5Cn4-Cd*s}Zi>kUꉿƊ( ؼp!iž:㵟n\_\]$XFVeu.sMB f* cv` Oh۵Mp??j47 bOq?it9 ts\)MN~ߨiڕ&~}E6IBId9?\G)O&Sz99:O]yF .

Says Brenda,  I think the explanation is they re trying to attract people with diverse qualities and talents, and it would go against their principles for them to say they re going to give an athletic schol
