IMO every lifter starting out should read Rip's books. Though he is not the end all he is a good start for anyone who wants to know what's up. Plus he is a SOB and I love him.

Rippetoe is a know nothing pussy that never accomplished shit and the only reason anyone knows who he is, is because he trains people that are even bigger faggots than he is... Crossfitters. No respectable powerlifter is getting anything from this half a has-been.

Also I pulled the link. Feel free to copy and paste and give credit to the author, but please don't post links to other boards.

Oh yeah sorry about that, forget that that's also a board sometimes, I just go there to read articles from time to time.

You can just delete this thread if you want.

I think he has pretty good advice for beginning lifters, although I agree that anyone who's already an advanced lifter wouldn't get anything useful from him.
