@karsown @karsown @karsown Because he's one of those people who think leg presses are useless, curls are useless, hell most exercises that don't give direct carryover to squat, bench or deadlift are useless, or that there is only one right way to squat or bench press (the PL way), just to quote a few examples.
He's basically with the "hardcore l33t powerliftorz crew" (hell, he's like their king) who think any other form of strength/resistance training is beneath powerlifting.

@sinaui That's exactly what I'm talking about.
It's the best way for powerlifting. It should be, he's a world-renown powerlifting coach. But people should know how to take their advices with a grain of salt.
MAYBE the best way to train an exercise for powerlifting isn't the best way to train an exercise for building muscle. MAYBE it's not even the best way to overall strength. Ever noticed competitive strongmen and olympic lifters don't follow powerlifting workouts? Just food for thought.
