All good comments on the 6 minute mile, but like a lot of you said, if the coach requires it, then you have to do what the King in his Kingdom says. Our HS coach takes another approach...he says and I quote "the more weights you lift, the better you will play baseball". Needless to say, requiring kids to lift maximum weights has caused injuries. Although hard for me to do, I have said nothing (being a freshman dad), I haven't even introduced myself to the varsity coach and don't intend to do so. Will zip my mouth for the next three years. Many of the parents advised me to do so and I will. Any other strange requirements that HS coaches mandate to their kids?
