    Great stuff. For those struggling, read more of Louie's stuff and watch more vids. Over time it starts to blend together.
    For critics, yeah he's not an Oly coach. But one point that stands out is that good Oly Lifters are strong. And sometimes we get caught up just focusing on technique. Strength can overcome bad technique, but good technique cannot overcome no strength.

    Snatches and C&J are directly related to your maximal strength in squats. Louie isn't wrong. Abadjiev, Chen Wenbin, Pendlay, they'll all tell you that. Heavy high-bar back squats and front squats are premium lifts to become better at OLY.
    Also, accommodating resistance and using Hooke's law to address the lifter's natural strength curve is what's missing in OLY. It's a legitimate technique in creating power in any movement. Louie can be wrong about some things, he's not wrong about that.

    As for Louie and his lack of OLY champions and record holders, it's because no elite lifter from that discipline has ever come to work with him. And that's exactly what he's saying. Give him some talent and he'll make them internationally competitive. For example, let him work with Kendrick Farris from the US and see what happens.
    Btw, I'm not saying that Louie is guaranteed to turn out Olympic champions, but accomodating resistance techniques work for every athlete I've ever seen use them.

    • @RevShifty
      @RevShifty 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      This post is old as hell, but I'm going to respond and back you up anyways. Not only has he coached more world class athletes (obviously powerlifters, but also college and pro football players, soccer players, runners, combat athletes, and more) than any other single coach in the US, but the roots of his teachings go back further than most people realize, and even *started* in Oly lifting. All you'd (royal you, not you specifically) have to do is look into the training history of Vasily Alexeyev (who set 80 world records over the course of his oly lifting career) and watch how he developed his own training methods.
      At different points his training involved involved hundreds of kettlebell swings in a session (what would now be called GPP, as well as a crazy degree of accessory work), and even doing his basic lifts, especially his pulls, squats, and presses (still in the Games at that time) while standing in chest high water in the pool (the original accommodating resistance). No one could doubt that man's raw strength or abilities in lifting, and he was doing all that before Louie's main inspirations were even printed. These techniques can easily work with oly lifting with some adaptation. Hell, that's where they got their start, whether it's recognized these days or not.
      Some people just like to bitch. Let them stay clueless. Anyone who has been involved in strength sports longer than instagram has existed know the impact Louie's techniques and teachings have had across the board. They might not use Westside methods or even conjugate training specifically, but try to compare how many championship powerlifters, strong men, and even Highland Games athletes have used something (bands, GPP work, etc) they'd have never known about if it weren't for Louie compared to the number of champions who never touched any of it. Its not even a question.

    “If I put bands on a bar - if you were in shape- I will leave money… ‘cause I bring… when I did crossfit seminars here - I don’t have time - that’s why Laura Phelps and her husband and AJ Roberts do them - I would bring cross fitters - I’d put eight crossfitters out there, they’d break their clean record that day!”

    Well i am not arguing, i am just posting data and I haven't stated anywhere that Klokov is awesome. In fact there are better lifters than him in his own weightclass. Klokov was just example as there's extensive visual documentation of his training etc. I referred to video of him competing as 14 year old boy. Intention was to show that to come close to his level you have to work that hard. No bands were used there, while he is in the country mr. Simmons refers to as the source of his knowledge.

    If you think that addresses what I stated, you're not understanding. The point remains: Could Klokov be any better with the use of some of the techniques that Louie is talking about? You don't know one way or another. Maybe Klokov would've won the gold medal in the '08 Olympics had he added some accommodating resistance work to his programming.
    Your argument is, Klokov is awesome, whatever he does is optimal and he couldn't be better. Why? No proof of that.

    I've watched training sessions where Xiaojun does pure hypertrophy training with isolation movements. Would you mock that as not OLY? I've seen him do high rep lateral raises, overhead cable tricep extensions, etc. How many western OLY coaches would think that's nonsense? Most coaches don't study the history and evidence from the past like Louie has. Instead of standing on the shoulders of giants, modern coaches are trying to reinvent the wheel even though they've been handed Pirelli F1 tires.

    To support my point on band use i'll cite from the record of mr. Klokov. You can easily find his direct competitors of those events.
    Olympic Games:
    2008 Klokov Silver
    Worlds:
    2005 Klokov Gold
    2006 Klokov Bronze
    2007 Klokov Bronze
    2010 Klokov Silver
    2011 Klokov Silver
    Europeans:
    2010 Klokov Silver
    Above is factual data of the latest generation of lifters. Does mr. Simmons have any proof on the use of bands? Which one of the Russian scientists says anything about bands?

That they don't have enough talent. It doesn't work like this, "give him some talent". Does he have a WL gym? Does he market the sport to pull some talent to him? Most of the US WL coaches do this for free, in their garage and in free time because there wouldn't be much of WL in USA. That's what i see/read from abroad.
