The Lessons of Keith Wassung

For those who don't know, Keith Wassung has been lifting for longer than many posters here have been alive. He's accomplished in both olympic lifting and powerlifting and currently works as a chiropractor. His articles have been published in several nationally distributed strength mags, so if while reading something you think "hey, I think I've read this before!" you might have.

Keith has made a considerable contribution to the board in the following articles. Not only has he posted his work but then stuck around to answer questions that people have. Each thread is essentially a mini-seminar and there's a lot of knowledge and inspiration to be gained from these works.

Your goal in the gym should be simple: more reps performed more explosively with more weight in less time.

Find yourself in a maniac's mind: carnivorous, lusting and fulfilled by the the atrocities you commit. Be assured in your dominance. Lick your canines and incisors, and smile. Now lift.
