Why You (Probably) Shouldn't Train Conjugate

Louie Simmons of Westside Barbell was a trailblazer and an innovator in the sport of powerlifting, but we know have a better picture of the science surrounding strength training than we did during the height of Conjugate popularity.

In this video, I talk about a few of the main issues I take when raw powerlifters apply the principles of Westside Conjugate, including the law of accommodation, the dynamic effort method, and the necessity of bands and chains.

Do you have feelings or opinions about Westside? Be sure to leave them in the comments!
