SO MUCH TO LEARN - BUT .....
Much has already been learnt, so thank God for Louie Simmons!
What do I mean. I read and reject and then read again and realise that he really does know what he's talking about. The bodybuilding fraternity has indeed got its head up its arse, including Max OT. They never focus on the bigger picture, but try to focus in on one form of training to prove themselves right. The links below are self explanatory vindications of Simmons / Westside approach to gaining strength and size. I just have to hold back from the mega heavy 1-5 rep ranges and keep things 6 and above, with good form and not injuring myself, and not doing too much volume (as reccomended), not going to failure very often in the higher rep ranges etc. In light of the serious and proven information out there, Westside really adds up and makes sense - in the long term. Its not a quick fix, but a proven system. All the questions are answered by Westside i.e. what rep range? ALL in their own time! How much recovery time? 72-96 hours etc. Its all in there if you are patient and you look for it. Here's just a couple of links that vindicate the wisdom behind the Westside approach.
