Westside Barbell Bench Press Manual

Provides many examples of possible workouts for dynamic effort and max effort days. Short, easy to read and good, useable info. If you are interested in Westside's training program, this book is helpful.

This is a great book, full of information that can be immediately applied to your bench press program. The information in it has been around since the former Soviet Union was in existence, but now Louis Simmons has made it understandable for all of us to use.

Short and to the point. Will gain practical knowledge about training.

I have had the luxury of meeting a couple of Westside Barbell lifters, and have been very inspired with their sense of granimalistic, no-fail attitude. I have tried to instill that same mentality in my lifting as well. as an above knee amputee, I've had to train even harder than that of my competition. I've done a lot of research on different training methods, since I train myself, and do my own programming, and have found your methods the best. At the 198 pound weight class, I went from a 353 raw (no gear) bench to a 485 raw (no gear) bench, with the hopes of that 501.5 raw (no gear) bench at 198 pounds. Thanks again!!!

Great information, good delivery of some great training concepts. Looking forward to putting them to use.

Very complicated. Sentence construction leaves a lot to be desired. Certain routines that have multiple steps are not followed through or completed. Have to pick and choose what might work best for you.

Great book. I love it.

Good book on west side style.
