Guys, the ONLY two choices are to train for powerlifting until you break or train for pure aesthetics to impress other dudes. Absolutely no other choices or anything in between.

@brett_zky @JackdawJackal I get a chest pump on deadlifts

Deadlifts done poorly enough can hit every muscle group very effectively

@DocStrangelove2 Makes himself happy. He’s got no military or law enforcement experience. Has he ever faced a barrelled weapon in anger, or does he just play with targets. As a gunsmith can adjust that trigger pull to empty a revolver quickly, so what. Breaks records zzz 🥱

@BakerBarbell @wolfstrength Probably not, but I might start doing it just for fun.

@wolfstrength Do they do this for other stuff too or just lifting? Like if a guy is on video sinking one 3 pt shot after another……..are guys like “yeah but what good is that gonna do you against a BJJ black belt??”

I don’t know who needs to hear this but both strength and the other physical adaptations acquired while getting strong via barbell training, are useful outside the context of fistfights.

Chapter seven of Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training 3rd edition is titled “Useful Assistance Exercises.” I like to refer to it as “The Forgotten Chapter,” because a lot of folks don't know it’s there.

Novices aren't just less strong Advanced lifters, the same way kids aren't just smaller adults. We don't teach kids the same way we teach adults. So too, we don't train Novices the same way we train Advanced lifters.

@SS_strength @BrianCPT @chicagosc piss on the books if they go against long term real world practitioners

Incredible that this needs a study. As a Starting Strength Coach, I've watched this happen in real time, thousands of times, with actual people. But sure, publish away. @SS_strength

3/ The big headline: resistance training works. Compared with doing nothing, it improves strength, hypertrophy, power, muscular endurance, contraction velocity, gait speed, balance, chair stand performance, and timed up-and-go.

WFAC coach Carmen Phillips shows how trainees who have shoulder limitations can modify the press by sliding it along the front of the rack. The starting height, distance from the rack, and finish position are adjusted for each person, keeping the movement as close as possible to the press.

@BradSchoenfeld @chicagosc You're being obtuse about what OP is saying. The notion that quoted tweet is some sort of massive breakthrough is funny to any of us that have been in the field doing this professionally for years. Congrats on your paper.

@chicagosc @SS_strength What's incredible to me is that, in a science-based discipline, you don't appreciate the importance of employing the scientific method...
