The Official Powerlifting and Strongman Family Appreciation Thread: Part XX

[Jason2459]

...

I've been doing my own take on some stuff I saw from Josh Bryant lately, so far so good, but I'm building up from a weak place so pretty much anything will work right now lol. Only squatting and pulling once a week...body feels so much better.

And this is perfect. Take someone's ideas or template and apply it to yourself. That's the way it should be.

There's millions of templates out there anymore. And phone apps holy cow.

Thanks for this link J.

My favorite one is the last link I posted above. It's a goldmine. One of my favorite books is the ten commandments by Eirnie Frantz and Dan John's books.

[Jason2459]

Speaking of science...

Arian what's Mike Zourdos up to?

[308smk]

Not sure but he seems to have a good following in terms of online as well as coaching. Based off seeing his videos he seems knowledgable on strength training.

What's your view on him if you don't mind me asking?

The kid is your cookie cutter 1500 total lightweight powerlifter who thinks he's gods gift to programming because wilks scores exist and regurgitates whatever flavor of the day is out there to kids with a 315 squat.

Fuk that chit

I’m definitely going to be doing a lot of reading at work today lol.

I can definitely see that for sure lol.

Tight tan slacks has a ton of great history and content. Some crap but still history. Great to read through. Mike T's site has a lot of great content. I like reading GZCL's stuff too. Both contrast each other. RPE vs Percentage GZCL's book is a dollar but everything in it is recapped in his blog and then some.

And I've always been a fan of the west side methods which has all of it for free in articles over the decades and always been a fan of Sheiko another two contrasting methods.

[JohnnyRingo350]

I didn't look at the new book p, lol at 20 bucks. All his old stuff was free. No I wouldn't pay for it. Either way I didn't know all his **** was stolt.

Also if you guys want to read a lot of books for cheap get the scribd membership, they have a **** load of training books.

My problem is I suck at putting all that information together into a training routine. I rather just get an excel sheet and follow that lol.

GZCL is good then. There's an app for it too with several different templates.

[Anthony21]

I'm actually reading up on it right now and it definitely has me very interested.

What's the app called assuming it's on Apple.

Edit: nvm I see it's only for Android users.

I think I'm going to run one of Greg Nuckol's bench set ups along side what I'm currently using for my squat and deadlift and see how that goes.

[NorthStrong]

Tight tan slacks site is awesome.

I love the Kazmaier articles, as well as some of John Kuc's stuff on there. Kazmaier's stuff though, even other than the templates is gold. The actual writing has a ton of great information.

There's a lot of cool chit out there. We keep reinventing the wheel. Westside back attack at 7m 50 seconds. Also shows off an isometric and dynamic effort rig. What's funny is the multi station they show after that I had at my high school gym. Wish I used it. lol

Candito dropped his new deadlift program.

[WorldClassDBag]

Candito dropped his new deadlift program.

looks interesting, might give it a go after my deload

I’m hoping he comes out with a new program that addresses the deficiencies in his 6 week strength program when it comes to the bench portion.

[AFC96]

As an ex-client of Izzy I somehow was tilted reading the past few pages lol.

One thing for sure as a coach I feel like he is very invested in his clients unlike the Big names out there that I've been with.

Any of you pick up Izzy's new E-Book? Programming To Win Two.

If so curious on your thoughts on it.

I bought it yesterday, and it's an okay book.

You are basically just buying the book for the revamped program. Most of the explanations are still the same.

Not sure why you hate Izzy so much.. It's not like he's scamming people.

Many people who just started out appreciates his work.

People who doesn't know where to start or is overwhelmed by Practical Programming, can read his work which is more concise and easier to read.

Who actually starts off at powerliftingtowin >> starting strength ??

When you search for powerlifting (when I started 3 years ago) all google gave me was Rippetoe. Not Iggy. I read Rippetoe stuff and when I found PTW it was a straight rip from it.

I didn’t like starting Strength but I started to learn more about powerlifting by looking at top level dudes (Blaine Sumners, EliteFts, etc etc) and looking at who they learned from. Have yet to see one of them give powerlifting to win the credit for their victories.

I have gangsta wraps and I like them. Anything from titan will probably be your best bet since it's high quality and cheap too.

You went to a guy who’s competed on the world stage. Which makes sense.

Thps are good. I like gold sigs but they are stiff.
