I don't understand why everyone is hating on andalite lately. Yes, he doesn't like Rippetoe, but he already said that he doesn't post his views for a reason; read his answers in this thread. Also EM, I know you're not trying to come off as rude but when you ask someone why he trains because you feel he looks overweight, that's somewhat obnoxious, considering you're in that boat yourself a little bit.
Clearly, his training has worked for him if he can deadlift 450+ pounds.
