Serious question. Does zero carbs literally mean zero? As in no fruit, vegetables, dairy products etc. This seems extraordinary to me.

I would suggest training legs with high frequency and varying intensities and volume. Don't ever stop making strength progression in squats. Use many different variations of squats; back, front, high...

This is great info thanks for sharing. Did Louie talk about total daily/weekly volume including all accessory work? Do they track the volume of accessory work? I would assume they do.

Merry Christmas Gen!

I think there are acceptable changes that can be made to the program, such as the ones already mentioned ie, powercleans for row. It says as much on Madcow's site

OP- As already said, just follow...

The problem is, it would seem the template has changed. I understand what you're saying, but really I don't think anyone is losing any sleep over what's happening at westside barbell. Just nice to...

Everything is naturally occuring. The point is they are processed forms of a raw product.

I don't see the misinformation you speak of. He simply said; in his opinion natural living is a better lifestyle choice for overall health and wellbeing. Whether this is true or not is certainly...

Here in Aus it is mandatory by law that all supplements have a maximum expiry date of 2 years from date of manufacture. Most supplements if unopened should be stable and consumable for well over 2...

I train using a hybrid westside template. I just combined the basic westside template (including regular gpp) with dual factor theory. Accumulate fatigue for a 2-4 week loading cycle, then use an...

haha, now that would be some funky doms.

I think this is a pretty important part of that particular program. Deloading after following this program would be essential. I think it may also work if it was run, #days on/#days off.

My advice...

I do maximum conventional DL's once every 5 weeks or thereabouts. However, I do alot of rep work with different deadlift variations ie, SLDL, RDL, box DL's, sumo, goodmorning variations. These are...

Really...Thousands of people stronger than the Westside guys?

Although they may not train exactly like the Westside guys, I think they would share a lot of similarities in principals and methods...

Babyslayer, what kind of gpp you thinking of doing? Do you own a sled?

Good thread btw, an enjoyable read until the poppy cutters interrupted

What happened to kelei's post??? It was the most intelligent thing written in this thread.
