Whitney said,  If I didn't like it, I didn't have to stick with it. But I love competition. I decided to go for it. <br>Whitney has won gold medals at every Olympic meet she's attended and she passed her Level One U.S.A. Weightlifting Club coaching course.  I never thought I'd be winning gold medals. I didn't think I'd do very well. You should have seen me when I started. It was pretty ugly, laughed Whitney.  But I've worked at it. It's not something that has come easy. <br>One of Whitney's major goals is to qualify for next year's collegiate national meet. She currently has a 67.5 Clean and Jerk and a 45 kg Snatch for a total for 112.5 kilos (247 pounds). Whitney needs only 7.5 more kilos to qualify.<br>Coach Cross says,  She'll get there if she wants it bad enough. Whitney competes regularly in St. Joseph, Missouri which is a national hot bed for Olympic lifting. Whitney praised,  Wes Barnett (national champion) and Dennis Snethen have helped greatly. I'd like to give them credit. <br>Whitney lifts twice per week during her softball season and states with conviction,  You are not going to get big muscles from the way I train. I've lost body fat and gained muscle. My clothes are not as tight ad I'm faster and a lot stronger and more flexible. I believe I have improved my looks through lifting. I just want to hit them over the fence and I want to gun'em at home. That's the best feeling. <br>Whitney is majoring in athletic training and wants to be a strength coach.  Coach Cross has built my confidence. He threw me into coaching here with some of our athletes and at clinics. I've really enjoyed it. <br>Coach Kennard said,  Whitney is a 3.1 student. She always studies on the bus when we travel. Whitney is serious.<br>Whitney believes the spiritual side of life is important and one should always keep trying to progress.  My family is so important, reflected Whitney.  My mother and father are still together and that has brought stability and security. They provided a strong work ethic growing up on a farm. Also, here at MNU we have chapel service twice a week in the morning. We have an FCA chapter. With our dorm life we have devotion once a week and Wednesday we have a church service.<br> Being on the softball team is really great because we have bible study. It's also a timedo it quickly.<br>The Poliquin Factor<br><br>Through his brother Fletcher, who is now a track and strength coach at Williams College, Brooks learned about Charles Poliquin, co-owner of the Poliquin Performance Center in Tempe, Arizona. Poliquin s pro clients include over 60 NHL and over a dozen NFL players.  I wanted to work with Charles to get my strength levels up to a level where I could really compete on the field, says Brooks. The results were beyond anyone s expectations.<br>Brooks started working with Poliquin on April 12, and continued for the next three months. He trained for one approximateQIU (C251ZIr=r>ep;7cmsO4*lzJ(Ƕ-fmŧ2-$ߏ>Yg^G,OE|<jb(^G~DJZi64p8#'VLN1%k$cfmjX5M<_FX051גo4i+U) Lƿi2?_0ɚNoou<_Ia"/?v)(3Ŧf_SiB /mAC=Đ\Jk0c,@c6y_g x8'WwF{j/=NW\3x%_&H]H(Իu>s n SqhiYM~@N >X7PKyw~TRI,(?I mɟf,V_|uc w1X]?ݑ'H7>o/-*TEv3J֬o߷Oٺ9]_T֢YVnF#UG;Oex] It}"S`բgPԢ)Y0¿1[GyZBT*Nq4_{N@%݀[p`bE6A 1\Y y?Q/ډL'o4ZOŨ,SUnX%*9~nʶf*[$ZVEDHyzK+My<>ޓ]n"@\pMF,vz Ӭ JW.=͚=*{Hd$#s2r7cO.:!Q|-T !^k|jUʾ)~V%Zr\\J'UuU',?H\Zӯ u Cg8mٽygx$O$wLH<˪_W.ڕҿ_f.}[6SN!#OW#v>AEyDrs6 ,Eȳp^]o!NOl!zF!hjjw Lt桐p~M}VIt#ڲ} ܷ0UJX$1i7ך|~^m> Tȥ38J̾G݈muĒFs9,X~zsHdp*O#]Ӿ5^83Ђ΋ι/ ~^Q"CPd8h`5(}96{{m^Fkɣ)8 Zۦ{iqgذ3]Ko5LSKx# slxr$25q ] PA)G9ve.9J\V14* 1NT'<0o-{1lHcMd$ϧ{wq2mH [Yn l@HoQ)Rb ׳Sa{hr`҈NL|vj?<䷛' gTpHQտhH\]2o"^{Ѯ$%c7wRӂY\r)M&SN܏ kRm!kou9,hUVxm+e[m5Ku9"S:%1<АqLBoO(ǫ.H_LyQo3$̞ fk!}?H7UsWާboӏ/- 0HMiI1qW .?KdռݨZTEs<>2SdY]7ԃSP[$"hx:F?h9]멧HZHdGGUc.j'4_WVNFi#y}_/j|ACiU-f,VS1y_i,STO&2k,hAMf Xu,ޤ2[HŽZ$OWU'?'Gsh4m=VF].Nv~&[̞uk[{Em,ma[Ir/RtJչw0MʖQX%mӔ(сs֋k:uĞkaw7 ˓$7^nf(W]m<`5<2DͲ(7(g+R>!Ѽ?W4o׶Aoՙۚ>5nHkԵYH.t8>%_g/~O8o۔L$ۈW{B-GP{ƒq b>)>x
