- This is footage of a workout in Westside from Video power magazine. This was when Westside was at demorest. You will se Chuck Vogelpohl, Mike Ruggiera, Louie Simmons and many more in a speed workout for the lower body. And obviously Louie simmons to explain it all.
this is history
*THIS IS **-SPARTA-** WESTSIDE BARBELL!!!*
Yes
Nah this is a friday
These guys are animals so glad this footage is here for us
Cory Spence drinking a bud light!!!! Hahahaha
His goatee is stronger than all the influencers on social media.
RIP Louis
This man was ahead of his time. One of the very few trainers in general that used resistance bands during compound lifts. This method may have been normal in the powerlifting world, but when it came to training in other sports, rarely used.
It wasn’t even normal for powerlifting. Louie really brought it to the forefront.
@@barndencactus *in the United States
He was not ahead of his time. The Russians were. He merely copied them.
Kinesthetic synergy is under estimated.
Loui read alot about Russian training methods as I remember. The Russian s had the right idiology behind strength training...
These old Westside videos are gold! Please keep uploading more!
RIP Louie! Learnt so much from you and increased my total and feel in love with Powerlifting because of you legend!
Thank god some real training footage is around. Love learning about all the westside methods and conjugate style right now. Thank you as always. ☘️
I didn't realize Louie was that strong. That 590 plus bands was impressive!
he was incredibly strong even by today's standards as a raw lifter, probably would have been considered one of the goats if it wasn't for his injuries.
Louie was in the top ten in the world for twenty years!
Heres his lifts

@@louisl1616 I doubt that...
@ Alex you can't doubt it. It's literally written into the record books and you can go check it. Louie was in the world's top ten in his twenties thirties forties and deadlift was in the top ten in his fifties not sure about his other lifts at that point. He is one of the most underrated lifters going and at one point was only number two in the world because of Ed Coan. He totalled elite and featured in top tens for 3 weight classes which is also unusual.
Thanks for putting these clips up!
Whenever I watch a louie simmons video I can hear him say "when I die westside barbell will die". If you ppl haven't already order the conjugate method books, you better before it's to late...
No way... his gym may end but his methods and books will be revered for a long time
Lol where are the books going? Biden gonna have a burn burial? Lmao..
@@LambeauLeeeper his books are westside barbell. To my knowledge there isn't a warehouse of his books ready to ship. It's like a mom and pop shop. When he dies who will ship the books? Who will run the website? I'm sure he has ppl helping him as he has ppl helping him with the gym. If he doesn't want the gym to exist after he passes, what gives you the impression he wants to keep his website running?
This didnt age well
This is so badass, boosted up my test to the roof, nothin like sharing weights and loud music with your friends , Im so proud to be a man!
Daniel Leandro hell yeah bro, being a man is fucking awesome
Guitar-ass except when there is a bigger/better man waiting for you round the corner
@@similargoals5084then you just gotta work as hard as you can to be that bigger/better man
Rest in peace Louie
Thank you for posting this ❤
This is therapy
One word about this video: BEAST!!!!
There is a time to be monstrously strong. This is _your_ time. Revel in it. Start today.
Chuck picked up 10 plates like it was just the bar
Dave Tate in the background
I just love the chaos of Louise screaming PR‘s over blaring music
Bad ass video. So inspirational
At 6:55 Lou hits 6 plates and who knows how much band tension box squats easily! Yeah, they could lift raw as well!
Technically in briefs
@@barndencactus still roughly 950 at the bottom with being probably 55-60 years old.
Got to lift Raw to lift Big... I'll only use my belt when I peak r test...
@@mattjonas5861Louie was around 53 here so definitely very impressive.
@EVLork They trained raw 95% of the time.
Awesome
Lifting so was different then. Those guys were animals
If I tried this my hip joints would fly across the room .
Then you’re not doing the movement correctly.
Wow, ChuckyV before he ever broke a grand on the squat. That's how you know it's old school.
Westside Barbell #1 strongest gym in the world!!!And box squat in my opinion is the best strength building movement of all!Mr.Louie Simmons=GENIUS!
I wonder where the clothes in this video are now?
thomas green in the trash most likely
Good preworkout vid
… and I felt like a beast when I hit my 235 1rm squat.
You people are fucking awesome people in the world and Loui you are a complete master.
badass
I bet that PJ’s PIZZA was flame 🔥
It's amazing how Louie just rattles off exact competition numbers, no rounding at all. Just shows what an analytical mind he had.
More west side please
Chuck is the man
wait this isn't top 10 chest exercises
Beasts
West side needs to make a soundtrack
Pjs Pizza still exists!
Can someone plz give me the song at the 7:00 mark. When Louie hits his single?
It's by the band Pro-pain. Not sure exactly the song but every album they have kicks ass. I'm guessing that song was on one of the albums from the mid 90s
@@southerndarkness9922 thank you very much brother!
Somebody pls tell me the song in the video I wanna make a playlist
Giulio Iaconisi it’s the Stiff Upper Lip album by ACDC
@@vance9090 ty man
@@vance9090 thanks four years later, was looking for this
8x5x low boxes squats with 4 long Mini bands doubled up at the bottom.
❤
2:00 good music
Westside Rules 💪💪🗡🗡
What happens if you miss the squat with those bands?
This is dynamic effort. It's only 50-60 percent of their max and 25% in band tension. You really shouldn't be failing doubles and triples with 75-85%. That being said, it's a box squat, so the other guys there help you out of you have to sit back on the box.
Basically you get caught in a rat trap 😂
@@Dr_Footbrake stuck for eternity.
Need the soundtrack
first song is acdc can't stand still
Had the pleasure to train there years ago.. Lou and that crew were God's. Great people and that is what real training looks like.
Fucking chuck!! Starting the session off!
At the end, did he say “we drugged before we squated”???
He did, but in reference to sled dragging, they would do light sets to warm up on dynamic squat days. Immediately after he says he will come back for an evening workout to drag some more before more reverse hyper and abs.
Was Louis drinking Pepsi for his post-workout?
Really want to know why Louie is always rocking the Seahawks hat. I’m a die hard hawks fan but curious if he trained a player or had a good relationship with the strength staff or just liked the team! I need to know!
Those striped pants need to come back!
I gotta ask: are heavy ass box squats with bands rough on your spine?
I think if average joes did them like these guys it would break our spines in half. They hit the box extremely hard it cant be good on your back. Im sure if you hit the box soft as possible and then reverse it, it would be fine to do heavy if you can do it pain free.
Elliot Hayes if you box squat dont slam your ass on the box and pause on the box
The way they are doing them (chest out ass out) and touching the box mostly with the hams keeps the spine safe. That being said I flinched at the rolling backwards on the box some were doing.
@@alexwilliams5587 isnt that what I just said?
Elliot Hayes yes :) but i just want him to know that its a common view point
I used to look around as a child pondering what it meant to be a man, I looked at these guys as a kid......and thought "found some"
Uses bands to develop stretch reflex, pauses on the box to lose stretch reflex
These aren’t exactly Harvard grads bro
Louie Simmons' training methodology is bullshit. Don't try to think about it too much.
Bands aren't really for stretch reflex though? Afaik, bands are for progressive overload
@@facundozapata7364 lol always someone telling some of the strongest guys in the world they’re wrong
@@facundozapata7364 I mean they were only the some of the strongest guys in the world at that time but hey there’s always someone on the internet that knows better
D I E S E L
Bands didn’t make them stronger, AC/DC did 😂🤷🏻♂️ awesome stuff
Man the way they plop down like that with that much weight lucky to not hurt themselves. Look how far we have come lol
The whole point of the box squat is for that relaxed state in-between the eccentric and concentric state lol. It helps to increase force production
mans is trynna tell louie simmons hes wrong lmao
@@dudemanfam6767 someone should have tokd Louie that a long time ago. That whole group would agree with it today
can do box squats and have relaxed state without plopping your ass down so hard the bar bends up and down. control that shit
Sad that all these dudes are either dead, or so messed up they can barely walk now.
They all still train
What are you talking about? Plenty of them are absolutely fine.
Full range of motion is overrated
Westside barbell is quite possibly one of the absolute worst gyms for powerlifting in the history of powerlifting. If you want to be injured on a weekly basis, have the absolute worst technique and not ever do a full rep, then westside is for you! Their presence in the powerlifting world is a major reason the public has not got behind the sport! Absolutely horrible training methods, techniques and attitudes towards lifting!
@big daddy you cant say slamming down on a wooden box is good for your spine...Simmons head is so far up his ass. Thats why hes so short, didnt you know?
Ur an idiot.
Completely agreed
lol so when louie died any basically every strength athlete in the world acknowledged him was only because he was full of shit?
Right, it’s not like they’ve produced world champion lifters and some of the strongest guys in the world.. but hey there’s always someone on the internet that knows better amirite
Simmons.Dick.What would he have done without anabolics.And the rest of his crew.joker.Do it aff you'r balls.Or take up ping pong.
Westside is the dumbest method for increasing actual strength
@C II STOP
For an equipted lifter on Steroids ( everyone at Westside) its perfect. But for a natural, raw lifter, it's complete garbage
All you know all’s what gym do you run and method do you teach that makes multiple champions like Louis has
Ur an idiot Rohan Hammond.
Wrong
I respect this man's strength but his training methods are bullshit to me
I’d they all got strong as duck doing it then surely that’s literally the hardest proof they actually work...
Fuking legend!
