Louie was one of a kind, and I enjoyed being able to capture that when I could. Thanks for the laughs, the knowledge, and the Bob Evan’s breakfasts! Rest in power! 🙏

I picture Lou's brain is constantly, and randomly, choosing between different modes of talking. It happens without any internal rhythm, and any choice can be sprung at any time. - Anecdote about one of his athletes. - Quote from an athlete, or coach, or book, or random drunk he met. - Reprimanding and teasing with a wry smile, while coaching. - One sentence of stellar direction and coaching, followed by a minute of filler talk (The episodic structure of anime was inspired by this). - Filling the space with nonsense until the brain picks another option. Every once in a while a golden nugget that explains the nature of strength sports gets added to one of the aforementioned choices. But it's almost always surrounded by white noise. Love this video. It shows Lou's coaching style, and should inform everybody watching if they'd like it or not.

Also I'm not gonna say it's not true or he is wrong, but I had the same theory about adding to my pull and squat. I added a bunch to my deadlift and squat and my snatch didn't go up any. It's such a dynamic movement, and the deadlift and squat are so almost "static" that it doesn't transfer that well. Again, I'm not saying anything, these are just my findings, who knows maybe I was doing it all wrong....
@irabaanmajumdar8858 жыл бұрын
You can increase your overall/relevant strength and still not be able to use 100% of that increase in strength due to a technical issue in your lift. Could be a limiting factor.
@mvagusta038 жыл бұрын
Irabaan Majumdar What I should be doing instead of deadlifts, is an explosive speed deadlift with a shrug at the top of the pull, that will transfer better than just a slow heavy deadlift.
@irabaanmajumdar8858 жыл бұрын
Mr. I don't disagree. There comes a point with Louie's methods and conjugate in general where you just aren't achieving enough specificity, you would most likely be better off doing exactly what you said - just being overall more specific in regards to your programming. Just throwing it out there that it could be a technical issue that is the limiting factor in the scenario you mentioned.
@EliasSmeeus8 жыл бұрын
The conjugate system is both Max Effort and Dynamic Effort days. There's a time for strength work and technique work. Deadlifts will help your clean more than your snatch. California Strength is a good example of using a style of conjugate training. They'll do heavy days of block pulls, OHP, deficits, then they'll do high volume days(speed work) of the same movements. These are all variants to get stronger at your weakest points.

Elias Armendariz I follow barbell WOD for my training, designed by Cal Strength :) I do all the same movements, just not nearly as good as some of those boys. So many talented lifters have walked through the doors of cal strength.

-Wes RichardsonYou weren't paying attention to Louie, stupid. Louie said weightlifters do "heavy efforts" at about 70 to 80% of what a particular person is capable of for a single rep. A "max effort" is going 90% or higher.Dipshit
