Sst

[Tom Treutlein]

For anyone who likes HST, and the principles behind it but wants a similar thing for strength (SST), let's start bugging Bryan Haycock to get on with designing set principles and a methodology like was done with HST.

 

[casualbb]

oh we have, believe me

He sort of agreed to it but was like "oh, let me finish the HSt book first"

So at that rate I figure I'll call him from my nursing home in a while

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Haha damn. Maybe we should sign a petition and show him how badly we want SST. Can't hurt, certainly.

Or I can go pay him a visit myself...

 

[Backlash]

Isn't SST basically what Louie Simmons, Dave Tate, and all those guys are working on? Except without controlled laboratory studies? They seem to be doing pretty well at strength training.

yeah i would think anyone would have a tough time competing with WSB..they dominate strength

 

[Tom Treutlein]

I often hear of Metal Militia surpassing them in some ways. At least in way of benching. Any truth to this?

 

[wnt2bBeast]

MM produces some of the best benchers..i think thats where wsb lacks a little..
but if you look up and down the weight classes its pretty obvious theres one thing in common with the top competitors and that is WSB

 

[casualbb]

True that. From what I hear the eastern bloc countries do some pretty interesting and unorthodox stuff.

There's gotta be common principles underlying both methods. It would be cool to know those

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Yeah. Which is why I say we badger Bryan about it until he figures it out...

Or the Westside guys...

Or people at MM...

Or...

...

Casual?

 

[casualbb]

Don't look at me man. I'm still working on my premed classes!

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Premed, huh? Damn. Goodluck to you.
