I I M 4 ' Football pla\ By TRACY MIXSON Editor in chief The music, loud and upbeat, can be heard pounding through the wall of the gym next door. Class is in session in gym 307 of USC's Blatt Physical Education Center, and inside, students shuffle and shake to the tunes of Patti Labelle and the Pointer Sisters. Not much is unusual about this particular Summer II course, except maybe that most of the students are men ? very big men. They're the members of USC's football team, and the class is Physical Education iu/, otherwise known as aerobic dance. The Gamecocks have been taking the course the past three summers as a get-inshape preview to their grueling, twice-a-day preseason practices, which begin Friday. Bonnie Miller, who has taught the course since its inception, said aerobic dance can help players improve both flexibility and agility. "Out of the hour, we spend at least 25 minutes just stretching," she said. "Hopefully, they see an increase in flexibility. Also, they get aerobic training and we do choreographed steps that require somewhat fast footwork ? much more so than a lot of aerobic exercise classes. So ideally, they also see some changes in agility." Nose guard Roy Hart, a starter in 1984 who is coming off a knee injury that sidelined him last year, said the class has helped him readjust to physical activity. "It really stretches you out and gets your muscles in shape for the season," he said. "It especially gets you ready for two-a-days, because those practices are really intense. "The aerobics help prepare you for that, because the class is geared to help your flexibility and coordination, which is something you definately need in football." Although the class is not designed for the football team, Miller said the athletes tend to perform better than non-players. "There are other students in the class, but I think that being athletes, the football players tend to be better coordinated," she said. "They seem to pick up the steps more quickly." 3 After several songs and countless dance steps in the class, a few players begin to show fatigue. Tackle Brendan McCormack slowly I bounccs and skips to the music as he moves l! toward the bleachers, then dumps his 6-6, j 268-pound frame against the metal seats. ===== ! |l FIVE POINTS $900 < h 728 Haluda Atc. 264-9715 M-F: 9 am 7 pm Sat: 9 am 8 pm I S|950 WOODHILL MALL DEC'KEK MALL 6000 2500 Blvd. fcu Garncrc Ftrry Rd. 788-7213 778-0865 M-F: 10 am 8 pm <s./\nn M-F: 10 am - 8 pm Hat: 9 am - 6 pm Uuu I Sat: 9 am - 8 pm J L - Comma 5 ^ / Nv{)V^ I ([^ THE ALTERKA " /Rfe1 DORM LIV V^T/ 1-2-3 BR GARDEN AP, / /l~.fi,a Now Accepting Deposits for 1 1 \ 4427 BLOSSOM STIt^C 1/in/ Act? it o mwn-Mrr Football Season is Fast fit - and with football co I KICKOFF MACAZ m m The best w M Gameci m before, c m after th Ask your Account Executive m about advertising In Kickoff K 1 ? ?
