bodybuilding is different than powerlifting.

red barraca, far as I can see, you started this argument, nobody is getting banned here, and you don't have any sway on this forum to make it happen.
Don't start problems outside the Pit.

In reference to the original question: I like Max-OT training... I do modify it slightly NOW compared to when I used to follow it very strictly...
I don't stay 'religiously' in the 4-6 rep range, I will go up to 8 on some exercises... By no means is Max-OT a "powerlifting program" though... FORM is always #1 importance... then FROM THERE you try to either increase weight or reps each week... Now, I also do an "A" and "B" workout so that I alternate my workouts on an every other week basis... I change exercises when I'm no longer making improvements...
And maybe it's just me, but I get a GREAT pump lifting in this rep range, lower volume routine... I like tracking my progress and trying to beat numbers from previous workouts... It keeps the intensity very high... Good form is always number 1 tho

Different rep ranges and styles for different people, some things work for you some things don't. Max-OT may do wonders for one and shit for the other. It's a matter of opinion try it out and see how you respond but don't discard a system because an individual claims that it sucks and don't claim it to be the best because an individual claims it to be the holy grail of training systems. From my own experience it was pretty effective but that being said everyone on the thread makes pretty valid points.

I like Skip La Cour's radio program. The bodybuilding one. I've never listened to his "Manformation" one because I could give a sh!t about alpha male crap. I don't care if you get the squat rack first. I don't care if you get a drink at the water fountain first if we both get there at the same time. That's just low self esteem nonsense, imo.
Anyway, Max OT seems great. So do the other programs you mentioned, though. I believe consistency is the key regardless of what program you choose.
Form is important, but so is getting stronger. The progressive in progressive weight training, right? Probably not a bad idea to change things up over the years. Take a shot at all the different programs, but give ample time (what, 8 to 12 weeks?) to see what works best for you.
And where's your training journal, red barraca?
I'd say that's almost more important than consistency.Last edited by Curt James; 04-02-2009 at 09:34 PM.
