    The legend of kindred

    Oh brave new world... Last I heard he was leasing a room in his house to pick up on girls and toying with the idea of buying a dog and scooter despite not having the money for either. Silverback? :)

    Training a union prop.

    Again where's the study? I suggested a basic strength program - everyone attacked me for it. Another energy system? its well known that weightlifting increases a cardiovascular base by itself (something cardio alone doesn't do) He can't pass those benchmarks, thats the whole fucking point...

    Yeah, I doubt most people will never need anything beyond weekly periodisation.

    Deadlifts vs. Deficit Deadlifts

    I agree, but nobodies answered my question yet - what program is the OP running? If its novice progression then the OP would do better just performing the main lift, if its an intermediate program it wouldn't kill to have something like deficit deads as an assistance lift. FWIW I think...

    Deadlifts vs. Deficit Deadlifts

    Novices don't have 'weak points', they are weak at a lift because they aren't strong, lack motor skills and the ability to recruit muscle fibres. This is why beginner programming never involves much specificity.

    Deadlifts vs. Deficit Deadlifts

    deficit deadlifts are a good assistance exercise but i don't think they're really needed for a novice lifter. what sorta program are you running?

    4 day splits

    you won't get bigger if there's no stimulus for it. Looking at the training of drug taking elite bodybuilders who program based on weaknesses probably isn't the best way of training for a novice lifter...

    4 day splits

    When programming the first question you should ask is, what are my lifts? If its below 140/100/200, keep doing full body work.

    Training a union prop.

    Lets ask a better question here: how would improving someone's strength base not make them stronger, faster and less easily pushed around on the football field?

    topic of the week -How Can We Educate Others About power lifting?

    Nobody is going to give a rats ass about powerlifting. the feet don't move, its always going to make for a boring spectators sport.

    Training a union prop.

    Serious. thats what most rugby players on other forums run. 5x5, which SS is based on was written for football (state football albeit but the exercises do not need to be specific to game play, more being strong and able to pancake the opposition).
