I've found Olympic style lifting, it's assists, and kettlebells to be a wonderful form of resistance training. I recommend it, just learn it well and avoid Crossfit. 5,3,1 by Wendler is great for getting strong, it's just not Oly.

Disagree, immigrant is aptly used. You're reaching with that one.

Great post, do you recommend any books on this subject, it's very interesting.

Hundreds of bored fans will now have to go outside their homes to experience the terror of real life. Good luck!

Someone has to speak up for them!
