    Copying is not the same as stealing, it's like saying someone stole your car while your car is still on the same spot and you've still got access to it like before it got "stolen".

    How about BUYING his hard work instead of STEALING it.

    How wide should your stance be? He didn't mention... I've heard heels right outside shoulders

    the low bar squat advocated by Rippetoe is not the typical powerlifting stance. the LB (low bar) style he uses is designed to anatomically correct and the most efficient way to develop a proper strength base.

    i highly recommend ordering a copy of Starting Strength from him. easy to read but incredibly well thought out to present evidence for his assertions.
