"Be proud of your heritage. Don't be smug or against other races. Let's all work together. We should not breed hate but think about the good in people. I'm getting married soon and that's helped me to think about what's important in life. My future wife and family are also important. I give thanks to God each day for what I have been blessed with."&nbsp;</P> <P>The next question for Juan was what he wanted to be when he grew up. He laughed, as intended, and answered, "I want to be a good husband, father and role model. After my career in football, I will be able to give back what I have been given to others." Then with a twinkle in his ee, he added, "To Squat over 500 pounds one day when I grow up."&nbsp;</P> <P>In regards to being successful, Juan advised, "Listen to those who are important. Too many kids listen to the wrong people. I had a great high school coach and counselor. They kept me going in the right direction. My parents were always a big help and my position coach here at ASU, Dan Cozzetto always helps me.&nbsp;</P> <P>"I learned not to hang with the wrong people. I had a tough junior year trying to rethink my life in high school. If a buddy tries to get you to do something wrong, he's not really your friend. &nbsp;</P> <P>"Some of my classmates who got into drugs in high school are now whacko. I had 3 or 4 friends who did the right things in high school and they are doing great now. It's sad to see an ex-classmate on the street looking for their next hit."&nbsp;</P> <P>Juan has never even thought of taking something like steroids. "I don't need them," said Juan. "God gave me plenty of talent. I always bust my butt in the weight room. I was 6'8", 252 in my freshman year at ASU. I wasn't strong or coordinated, so I talked to my strength coach. He asked what I was willing to do to be the best and I told him, "Whatever it takes." I trained six days a week. I trained like the off-season during the season. I did that for almost three years. My Bench went from 270 to 380 in one year and my bodyweight rose from 252 to 310 pounds.&nbsp;"</P> <P>A lot of it was just eating right. I made sure I had a good breakfast and lunch which I never had done before. I would say to anyone, 'Don't be afraid of hard work. It will pay off someway. Nothing comes easy. It's important to earn what you get."&nbsp;</P> <P><EM>Juan has examplified what strength training and conditioning is all about. He has made steady gains in increasing his lean muscle mass, strength, footspeed, conditioning and agility during his time at ASU. He has remained in Tempe during the summer months for the last three years to lead the team in total number of summer lift and run workouts. </EM><EM></EM>&nbsp;</P> <P><EM>His enthusiasm toward strength and conditioning has helped intensify the team's commitment to a year-round training program."<BR>-ASU Strength and Conditioning Coach Rich Wenner</EM>&nbsp;</P> <P>Most of Coach Snyder's first recruits haveation of balance control by employing the march in place test with the OptoJump/ OptoGate system.

March In Place Balance Protocol

Balance Control: The Self Check Program That Nobody Can$z) h>

We must all remember that balance and coordination is controlled and influenced by, visuo spatial ability, vestibular/inner ear, and tactile sense/proprioception.

The March in Place test is done first with eyes open so that we can get a baseline for the paicipant. We then perform MIP with eyes closed so that any changes can be recorded. When you think about it the participant should be able to be as effective with their eyes clod. Differences seen are the result of body imbalances that could not be compensated for by proprioceptive ability. It is these imbalances, that can only be seen with dynamic testing, that prent participants from reaching optimal performance. Once identified, these imbalances are corrected with our BFS training program

  • 1. Start in a jump stance, mark your starting position and concentrate on the 6 absolutes.
  • 2. Start marching in place with your eyes open. March aggressively.
  • 3. March for approximately 30 seconds.
  • 4. Check your ending position and compare to your starting position.
  • 5. Repeat Steps 1-4 with your eyes closed. Again check your ending position and compare to starting position.
  • 6. The difference between your end position with
