    Just saw this on the P & B forum, thought it might interest some of you guys!

    California Strength is now looking for 2-3 lifters who have the potential and desire to reach a high standard in Olympic Weightlifting to join our Elite team. Qualified lifters will receive a stipend to cover living expenses and will live and train as a full-time professional lifter in the East Bay area of Northern California.

    Lifters accepted into the program will be coached by Glenn Pendlay, will be provided free of charge with the supplements, nutritional advice, physical therapy, massage, and other recovery methods needed to train at this level, and will train daily with National and International level athletes. You bring the talent and work ethic, we will provide everything else.

    If you are interested, please contact me at glennpendlay@yahoo.com to arrange a recruiting trip. We will pay for a plane ticket and accomodations for qualified athletes.

    Glenn Pendlay advocates high bar squats and things besides linear progression and hip drive and becoming a fatass. He's not the type of person you want to be taking advice from.

    you used to be more inventive, your posts have become a tad predictable of late.
    Still quite amusing though.

    At least he's less grating and face-punch-requesting than AoA... mostly harmless. I like that his posts are short and at least an attempt to be witty.

    That's annoying, it'd be better if there were nothing there at all.

    It's times like this that I wish I was a good weightlifter.
