EXPLORING UNIQUE CLINICS
at a time. The school placed four LCD
screens throughout the weight room that
can display workouts, keeping everyone
informed of that day's lifting schedule.
The first floor also includes a complete
dumbbell set and a functional area that
can be used for different exercises.
The second floor of the weight room is
where the cardio equipment and weight
machines are located. For the most part,
this area is used for athletes who are
recovering from injuries and are unable
to participate in the normal workout
that day. In addition, the second floor
is heavily used by the cross country and
track teams for cross-training, as well as
school staff for personal use.
Now that we've settled into the BDC,
it's amazing how much it has changed
my life, made my job easier, and allowed
me to be a more effective athletic trainer.
The athletes come to my room not only
for rehab but to sit in the cold tubs
or use the NormaTec for preventative
measures. None of that was possible in
the old facilities. By having the room and

resources to conduct rehab with our athletes or provide them with necessary treatments,
we are better able to get them back onto the field and performing at a high level.
Coach Harris has noticed the BDC has increased his efficiency because of its location.
The weight room is in close proximity to the locker rooms and athletic training room,
so it's easy to get guys in and out of workouts quickly or get them evaluated and
treated without them missing a lot of time. He can also get teams from the BDC down
to the fields quickly for conditioning. Strength coaches know that every minute of
training is valuable, so it helps that Coach Harris can now truly maximize the time he
has with athletes.
My advice to other schools interested in building a facility like our BDC would be to
make sure you talk with everyone who will actually be using it to see what would make
it the most functional for them. Then, include as many of their suggestions as possible.
That has probably been the best part about working in our new athletic training room
- I was able to have input into everything and set it up for what works best for us. n
