Good site, monster lifts

In a discussion with a guy who posts on frankshamrock's site I found this site:
http://www.elitefitnesssystems.com/
These guys are currently the monsters of power lifting. The center of their program relies on what has been called "non-linear periodization". Peridoization is the cycling through different phases of lifting with different goals (not really but good enough). The non-linear approach maintains a continual integration of strength and explosiveness.

This article talks about one sub-fighter's take on it and the program itself.

This also is a valuable article:

I also have a quality linear periodization routine more specifically for mma. PM me if anyone wants it.

Additonal resources can be found in (currently) the final post on this thread:

The elitefitness guys are the ones mainly responsible for chain and band integration into lifting, great but be careful.

Always remeber one thing:
Body builders are totally mechanized attack squad (you too piz)

Here is a modification of the Westside program that may be more useful for those going the non-power lifting route:

Damn interesting.. i am a beleiver in the MAX principle of weight lifting.. the only thing the body responds to i think is stress.. and the more the intesity the better.. (with the more rest needed after)

i like the guys schedule alot too..

Good article Dochter. Thanks

K-bar,

Not ALL powerlifters are fat. Usually the ones in the super heavy are usually pretty big but thats because the added weight helps push more weight.
Powerlifting is a sport with weight classes (like MMA, boxing, etc) You wont find a "fat" powerlifter in the 110-242 weight class (as a rule)
Why are all superheeavyweights like Cabbage and Eric Pele fat? Because they weigh 300 lbs+ and it's very hard to carry 300 lbs of ripped muscle.

The second link in my first post...

They told the guy to eat a couple of candybars a day.

Couple of months later "well I think I went a little overboard with the candybars."

LMAO
