anyone here tried training westside style? If so do tou think it produced better results than most conventional methods of power training? Thinking about looking into it myself.
Westside is a great method and definitely produces great results. I'm not sure how it compares to "conventional" methods - that depends on what you define conventional. But the WS method of conjugate periodization is superior, IMO, to linear or non-periodization methods.anyone here tried training westside style?

He's a great guy, very easy to approach. Me and my dad always shoot the **** with him when he's there. I only workout on sundays on ME bench days, and he was there for a while but hasn't been there for the past four sundays.nickw, If yo u dont mind me asking, Is Louie at the gym on a daily basis and is he relativly easy to aproach and talk to (b/s) with or is he intense and buis. only?
I couldn't find those articles on elitefts, could you point me to the right area? All the ones I could find inregards to WSB were linked to TRag...... is to read the articles at westside-barbell.com and elitefts.com

JonesesRX7,Cool, thanks man. I was looking in the right place the whole time. Appreciate it!
I am wanting to switch to WSB because I have decent size but my strength is terrible. Bench is 225 for 3 reps DL is 225 for 5 (grip gives after that) and Squat is 225 for 6 ass to grass. Simply put i'm a weak bitch, so I am hoping to shock myself into some new growth with the strength I get.
I will do a week or so of reading and try to formulate a routing and then start a new thread for some review.
Hey, check out the online exercise index at elitefts.com -- it can be found here :WSB/EliteFTS Exercises shown and explainedScrewbol.. thanks a ton man... really! Very comprehensive and that's awesome of you to list it out like that, and with my own set weights.. very cool.
A hundred dollars does seem like alot on DVD's but if I want to make good gains and also not injure myself doing it wrong, I should definately invest the money. Because your right.. I don't know what alot of the work outs are... Rainbows? Face Pulls? Rack Lock-outs? Pull Throughs?
But I am going to read everything a couple of times so I can get it down and I'm sure at least one of those articles will have descriptions of the excerices I listed above and some to be named after the movement themselves.....
Again thanks for your help and I will post up a full routine after I test for 1rep max in a month.
