The greatest strength coach ever, rest in power Louie.
Rest in Power the GOAT of powerlifting training
Amen to that
Not.
I want everybody reading this right now, in Louie’s voice say out loud: “in 1983 I broke my lower back and I created the reverse hyper out of necessity”
Bro I laughed at this, two years later, good shit
What does break my back even mean
Louie has an incredible memory. If he says this is how and what they did 30 years ago - believe it. Here we have sled pulls and power cleans as things to do for strength - and don't use straps on the deadlift. So we have truth Louie style!
People have no idea how effective sleds are. No other exercise has given me the noticeable gains sleds have. My gym has a fantastic sled area and hardly anyone uses it. Your knees will become like steel, your quads will fill with blood like you’ve never felt before and the next day you’ll feel fantastic with zero soreness.
Sled forward walks or sled backwards walk?
@@BruceWayne-rb1mbOn leg day Push it forwards then pull it backwards. Any other day I’d say just pull it backwards.
500 things in 5 minutes . . . a living library for sure!. Thanks!
💯
let me guess reverse hyper, good morning and box squat
I’d guess sleds hypers an BSquats
Reverse banded hyper with chained good morning jump squats, chain banded glute bridge etc
Inverse curl for sure you dummies
😂😂
all the stuff eddie hall does on leg day
Reverse Hypers 14x per week + Pull Sleds 180 feet 3x per day = 1,100 Squat
Reverse hypers are amazing💥
I fucked my lower back up when I was young and the reverse hyper (which is in my basement) is the only thing that gives me confidence and actually makes it feel better
Surely anyone who ever saw anything about Louie would have his favourites ingrained in their minds by now 😂
Sled pulls are no joke I started doing them been PRs ever since
Louie is in Heaven helping Jesus with his Deadlift
Best comment ever 😂😂😂
Wholesome ❤
He power cleaned the cross
Jesus just ordered a reverse hyper from eliteFTS
I love Louie. If only I lived near him I'd learn a ton.
U can learn a ton from his videos
its like christmas when you drop a new video. please make more videos, regularly
We're working on them!👊
Facts
Thank you louie
👊👊
For us novices, it would be nice to see demonstrations of the lifts as he speaks.
Dont do westside if you’re a novice. It’s dumb to conjugate when you barely know the movements
If you are a novice then just do 5×5 and do not make any adjustments. You do not know any better.
Excellent advice@@stevenhewes1990
Another 5 minutes of the Genius-Mr.Louie Simmons!!! Thank you Louie-you'll never know how much the stuff you told me means to me!
4 months of snatch grip deadlifts and power cleans put 40kg on my deadlift, I was plateaued for nearly a year before that.
Whats your 1rm and bodyweight?
@@francescor5559 it's not much, right now 74kg , pulling 220kg. So 162lbs pulling 490.
@@CeroAshura I'm 69-70 kg, pulling 210 kg...so similar weights but going from 180 to 220 kg in just 4 months is insane progress considering also the light bodyweight
how did you program the snatch grip deadlift and powercleans
@@solcoster8110 I did a 4 week system with linear programming. Starting with 1 set by 10 in conventional, followed by 3 sets in snatch grip by 6 with the same weight. The RPE for the conventional set was 4 ish during the first time around.
Taper down to 1x8 and 3x5, then 1x5 and 3x3 down to 1x3 and 3x1. Keep the conventional set to RPE 7-8 as you taper. Never over that much. The snatch grip will increase your ROM and make your levers inefficient. It will develop your power from the ground and your lockouts.
After week 4 go back to the first week and up the weights by 5-10 kg depending on the RPE of the last heavy single in snatch grip, if it's anything below 8 go for 10kg, otherwise just up by 5 kg.
For the powercleans it will come down to how experienced you are with them. As I had to learn it first i spent some days just working on technique. Afterwards it was once a week building to a max lift followed by 10 singles at 70-80% of that days maximum. this is good working weight which will allow you to develop the technique and still make progress in the lift.
You can also introduce a 5th week per mesocycle in which you attempt a PR not doing so will develop you faster as you won't have to deload too often. Once you end your last meso use one week to peak, maybe do 3x2 at 92.5% of your previous max , rest up and add 1 plate to your deadlift 🤞🤞🤞
R.I.P Legend
Please interview Chuck on the channel
I really wanted a reverse hyper machine but I can't afford it, so I'm just going to use an inverted bench with bands
Sensei ❤
Louie says that the bench press is 75% triceps & the importance of upper back training. Does this apply to the standing overheard press also?
Add in shoulders too.
For geared lifting yes. For raw - most people’s weak point is half way up.

Can you make a video on how to activate the glutes using the sit ups with medicine ball under low back?
If the medicine ball is under the lower back then surely it would be damn near impossible to engage the abs because they are in a stretched position? There is too much lower back extension
Why would you try to activate your glutes when doing an ab exercise? Just quit asking about it and go do the damn thing yourself
Do glute bridges or frog pumps
Love the content, keep it going. Thanks Westside!
Boy I clicked fast on this one!
Surprised at the suggestion of the clean, what does Louie think of high pulls? I can't clean proficiently but pulls are fine?
@@ScottishStrength Exactly everyone has different anthropometry do whatever exercise variation feels good for your particular build
A lot of top powerlifters used high pulls as a deadlift substitute before speed pulls with bands and chains were discovered,George Hector for one.
Just train your back. Who cares what you use for it, aslong as you make progress within the wave
Can you do (seated) cleans with dumbbells? Those he likes too.
the table is badassed
I LOVE YOU BRIAN SHAW
Hey Louie can you make a video on how to implement bosu ball squats in the conjugate system?
funny bro
Lol
Your going straight to hell for this comment
RIP sir...
Louie, which leather daddy bar do you recommend the most?
It sic AND piss
What did Louie mean by he did sled pulls until his feet wore out?
it’s a figure of speech..Don’t OVER THINK!
What are your top 5 exercises for explosive strength for wrestlers?
Reverse hypers, box squats, good mornings, speedwork, banded board, reverse chain board press
Zercher deadlifts
Zercher squats and deadlifts, power cleans.
power snatch/clean, ghr, pendlay rows, stone/sandbag loading, throwing events like sandbag/keg
Jumps too. A lot of fighters have lagging explosive strength towards jumps, probably cause their momentum in sport is usually forward wise for take downs and such. But it’ll bring up all aspects you need for wrestling if you build up your jumps too.
Waldemar Baszanowski !!!
POLSKA GÓRĄ!!!
Dirty 30s, pull throughs, box squats, floor presses, various types of good mornings.
Rippetoe isn't a fan of reverse hypers lol
Look I like mark he’s done a lot of good for barbell training but he gets very dogmatic in his beliefs.
But he is a fan of power cleans
@@iamthelizardking6239lmao yep. It's almost commical. Typical salty old timer.
Ok Ok I
jeezus he looks terrible. omg.
Not really he's old af bro. He actually is looking pretty good considering all.the drugs he's taken
