training question

[MR Pink]

Do you powerlifters also incorporate a bodybuilding training schedule in your training or do you just workout powerlifting style??

I try and stay heavy on the big three, but the on assiatance exerices I stay at about 8-10 reps. So you can say it's a combination of both but geared towards strength.

Exactly as parabellum said. Work the big three (squat, bench, dead) heavy. (I also do speed work on the big three.) Then for the muscles that assist the big three: tris, lats, shoulders for bench and hams, lower back for squat/dead are work BB style. I am really a BB, but there is an advantage to the density achieved with power lifting. Try it!
