Incorporating the SQ, DL, MP, BP into an Olympic weightlifting routine. Thanks.

Damned if I know, Steve.

That's easy:

"How to incorporate the squat, deadlift, military press and bench press to increase strength, alongside the Olympic weightlifting training on a Wednesday and Friday"

When you are starting strength training, you need a practical program to help you in you battle against mean old mister gravity. And remember, only the strongest shall survive.

*pretend i used a series of clever puns in regard to books/articles written by Rip and Bill Star* there i feel like i've contributed.

but seriously djmr, unless they're watching you lift at these olympic things (which i doubt they are), just show them what they want to see once in a while, and then do the fucking program. i highly doubt they'll stop you, especially after you explain the the renowned weight coach mark rippetoe essentially called them morons for their process...which they are.

Hmmm, if only there was some way for him to program his strength training in a practical manner. Second edition.

I doubt it. Someone would have written a book by now if it did.

If someone were to write such a book, what do you think that it should be called?

The level of awesome in this thread is quickly approaching infinity.

Well, Rip, if someone ever does, please pass along the recommendation that words like "barbell," "strength," "basic," and "practical" be used in the title.

God knows, most everyone likes to over complicate things.

Oh, and if they post on forums, they should add some type of notice to their signature letting people know that they have written such tomes.

That's my $0.02.
