My Day at Westside Barbell - Part 1

I had the opportunity to visit Louie Simmons and his world record powerlifters at Westside Barbell in Columbus, OH. The day consisted of a morning workout plus conditioning, lunch with Louie, an afternoon workout, and dinner with the crew. This is only a short look at some of what went on from a 10 hour day at the mecca of powerlifting.

@SteveHartman87 oh ok. did u have to pay or call in? i always wanted to visit too

[SteveHartman87]

@SplinterCellFugitive I just called and happened to catch them on a good day. Wouldn't hurt to try it yourself if you're wanting to visit.

man id hit that guy keeping his hands on the fucking bar

[xkruulx]

Oh man why'd you quit.

[morkar90]

Pussy you quit when you had more reps in you. You'll never reach your full potential with that attitude.

@HILARIOUSKID33 im not an expert, but i think it's because 1. it allows them to experience the heavier weights because it isn't a full range of motion. 2. the top half is usually people's sticking points, so they train that point specifically. you've probably already looked this up, but just in case.

[ediot6969]

Why did u quit. They probably thought u was a little bitch for that. Being that they are the best.
