That got me going.<br> When I first got hurt, the trainer was examining my leg. I asked him to tell me the truth. He said that I would not be able to play again this year, if ever. I sat on the sideline almost in tears thinking that I had p66 home runs this year. The other is of a Discus thrower. Notice the similarity of the hip and leg position as you look at their full picture on the next page. <br>If a Discus thrower were to train only on upper body specific auxiliary and even lifts, he would fail miserably because of lack of leg and hip strength and explosive power. Maximizing a baseball player's potential does not mean doing leg extensions, leg curls and machine hip and leg exercises for the lower body. Baseball players must Parallel Squat and Power Clean to develop their maximum power. If baseball players were to really get after these two lifts and do them correctly, you'd have to do one of two things. Either move the fences back another 50 feet or get used to football-like scores.<br>Baseball players should also do quick foot drills, stretch for speed and jumping power, sprint train and plyometric train. We also do not want to overtrain in the weight room. The maximum time in the weight room should be 45 to 75 minutes three times per week in the off-season and two 30-45 minute workouts twice per week during the season.<br>GET STARTED NOW!<br><br>The best time to start is now. Junior High is a perfect time to start. Get on the BFS Readiness Program. We have the Total Program Book, Readiness Workout Cards, a Readiness Video and even special Readiness equipment. Just give us a call. The high school and college athlete is at the age to really get after it and make success happen. Get the Total Program Book, the Set-Rep Log Book and the Total Program Video. The pro-level is the toughest time to start because there are so many games. Athletes over 28 who play over 100 games a year have a difficult time maintaining a workout schedule and being able to recover. The time to start is now. The younger the better.<br>FINAL NOTE <br><br>What was the best thing about Mark McGwire's history making 70-home run season? To me, it was his relationship with his son. The towering 500-foot blasts were great but I was more impressed when he hugged his son so often after circling the bases.<br>In our next issue (Spring 1999), we will feature LSU's remarkable bas, friends and teammates. <br><br>Proper Perspective<br><br>The following is part of Conrad s valedictorian speech:  In the ancient Greek Olympic Games, the motto was enkrateutes, prosexairo, pera - faster, higher, further. It was not faster than every one else, higher than the rest of the competition, or further than anyone else. Just faster, higher and farther. Today, I am going to tell you the two things that everyone must have in order to take themselves faster, higher and further. <br>The first thing you must have is faith. You must have faith in yourself and faith in God. First is faith in God, He has a plan for each and every one of us. We must trust Him and the plan He has for us and try to follow it as He wants us to. You must know that through it all He is always there for you. He loves you no matter what, and He will be beside you no matter what. He will be there to carry you when you are down or ha
