This class is offered year round during the school day and runs the five week days.The class is open to freshmen through seniors.“The class is made up mostly of athletes, but that is not a requirement,” said Dutcher, Strength and Speed coach, physical education teacher. “Any student interested in improving strength, speed and performance may take the class.”“A lot of movement skills, training principles and fitness topics are focused on in the class,” he explained. “However, the main focus is for students to understand the principles of moving the body faster, more explosively and to develop strength.”Dutcher said one short term goal is for students to improve athletically by developing an understanding of velocity training and putting those principles into practice.“My long term goal is for students to have fun while they develop a love and appreciation for training,” said Dutcher. “I want them to take that appreciation with them throughout the rest of their lives.”Many students said they have loved increasing their strength and speed plus knowledge of how to use the equipment.“Being in this class has improved all of my lifts by a significant amount,” said Tye Penne, student. “One lift in particular that improved is my max deadlift, which has gone up 70 pounds since the start of the year.”“I have definitely improved in all aspects, but I have surely noticed the most progress in my speed; I am much more explosive, and my overall mechanics are much better,” said Kynlee Schmidt, student.“I have noticed improvements in the activities I participate in outside of school, especially dance and track,” said Tessa Iverson, student. “It is rewarding to see how the strength and skills I develop in the weight room carry over into those activities.”“Beyond just getting faster and stronger, I’ve built much better workout discipline, consistency and the mental toughness needed to excel across any sport I play,” said Tanner Iverson.“It has been so beneficial to be able to fit lifting into the school day, and it really frees up time after school and during practices,” said Seth Moss, student. “My favorite part of the class has been the great coaching and insight that Coach Dutcher provides every day. I have seen dramatic improvements in all my lifts and runs as a result of his coaching and program.”“The thing that I enjoy the most about the class is the organization and structure that Dutcher brings,” said Titus Dougherty, student.Dutcher said, “This class is a wonderful opportunity for the students of Le Mars, and they have done a tremendous job buying into the process of improving. This has also been a wonderful opportunity for myself. I am enjoying every day working with these kids, and they have exceeded my expectations wildly.”</div></body>
