Before I started powerlifting I couldnt even lift up a coke can. Few days ago I scored my personal lift, I lifted up two coke cans tied to a little stick.

I think the basic premise would be compound movements for 1-3 reps such as bench press, deadlift, and squat. I'm thinking about it. I have a great routine outlined. I think Westside Training would be a good program also.

"Many coaches and athletes don't believe in the benefits of GPP at all. Who are the worst offenders? Bodybuilders and powerlifters are by far the worst!. They feel that all they have to do is train the main lifts to get strong. This is why so many of them are out of shape." - Dave Tate

No desire to be a power lifter. Just want to look good but I can lift more than most but not as much as I once could. ;)
