Did you read my post or the article I linked or do you just enjoy being ignorant?? It literally says that Louis instructs any lifters under his tutelage that want to go raw to work on strengthening the quads more and narrow their stance. Also by quoting him saying that the bench is not a chest exercise as evidence of his ignorance just makes you look inexperienced. To a powerlifter, raw or not, the bench is not only a chest exercise. Legs, lats, shoulders, triceps are all involved in the a powerlifters bench. However, did you know that Louis has his raw lifters do repetition work with their feet elevated on the bench to purely strengthen the chest more. If you don’t know all of this I think you need to take a big step back and evaluate whether or not you should be discussing topics that you have no idea about.
I don’t even use the conjugate system, and could really care less about Louis, however, people bashing one persons work from a place of sheer ignorance of that persons work is supremely annoying to me.[/quote]
well then where are the results[/quote]
Figure out who this lifter is in the IPF/USAPL 275 class.

one does not prove anything. also what were his lifts before conjugate. also what are his lifts besides a good pull. if 99% of top lifters use one style and 1% use another, which is the superior method[/quote]
You have not made a single comment in this article that was even an accurate quote. How about you stop trying to twist things, give the whole quote in context.
And by the way, saying you are training Westside without ever having been to Westside and trained is like saying you are drinking Bordeaux from California. Its similar, but not the same. Here is an example of someone Louis actually trained Raw, only example I could find because most of the major competitors at Westside are geared.

And then there is Matt Brown of the UFC, who his opponents and training partners all acknowledge has gotten exponentially stronger recently. That is the time frame he spent at Westside training. Do you think he is doing the same thing as everyone else?? No he isn’t because Louis is a good coach that knows enough to adjust a training program based on needs and what does or does not work.
