    "Seymour Koenig once told me 'Don't ever lift more than 150 lbs above your head'"

    He said he talked to some S&C coaches, some of whom agreed with him and some who did not. When I asked him if any of them backed up their claims with research, he has been strangely silent. Should I get a reply, I will also ask about the qualifications of these coaches. If they are your typical...

    For whom did you score the fight: Condit or Lawler?

    3-2 Condit, and I wanted Lawler to win. Did not give the 3rd round to Robbie. Can see the decision going either way, really. Not unhappy with the result.

    Olympic lifters squatting vs powerlifters squatting (funny trolling of geared PL)

    Will be in West Virginia April 16-17, then Virginia the next couple of days, then headed back down. Not sure exactly, yet. Have to be back on the 28th for the Europa on the 29th.

    "Seymour Koenig once told me 'Don't ever lift more than 150 lbs above your head'"

    Other things: 1. You cannot tell if someone knows what they are doing based on their appearance. I frequently look like I know what I am doing. Does not mean shit. And many bodybuilders appear to look like action figures (minus the huge gut), but are dumber than a bag of hammers. 2. 150lbs is...

    Aw holy fucking shit. Weighltifting has the lowest injury rate of all strength sports, and all have a lower injury rate than bodybuilding. For fucks sake people who do not know shit need to seriously STFU. Every study done says the same thing. When weightlifting was the rule, rather than the...

    Depends on the individual. Me, no, Some people, yes. Really, if someone has healthy shoulders, with good technique and good programming there is no reason for an injury to occur. Back when the press was the standard of strength, there were far fewer shoulder injuries. (most common injuries in...

    True. Seen some guys with shit technique move incredible weights. These are the first ones to get injured, then, unless they fix something, they tend to stay that way. Like anything else, skill cannot be under-rated.

    Biggest Bench in The UFC

    Well, his weightlifting numbers are real, along with his medals. Numerous people saw squat 900+ in person, with little to no warm up, including my first coach. Now, no evidence of his bench press exists, and no idea why anyone would credit him with a good bench, given that he was never really...

    Technique plays a huge role in strength. Not just because it allows you to lift more, but because it reduces your risk of injury. Anderson lifted below his potential in the Olympics because he was, as pretty much always, injured, (and sick, IIRC). Cannot see the vid, at work and need to change...

    Biggest Bench in The UFC

    I am a strength and conditioning coach. I am aware of Lesnar's numbers, just not the point of your post. And I know or knew of quite a few guys that put up great qualifying numbers, goes with the job. No, I have not seen the video. But, since he is not a fighter, I fail to see how what he does...
