I spent 12 years training with the wrong methods, one being the western periodization that is a dead end street.
I use a 3 week wave system which leads into circa max and delayed transformation. The soviet system I started 30 years ago prolonged my career to the point where I made top 10 lifts at 54 years old. It has enabled Westside lifters to break 100 plus world records and has helped countless more.
I am proud our resume is never up to date. Why? Because we constantly break new records all the time, check out the top lifts in the back of the book and then check out our website for updated records. You will be amazed!

The Book of Methods is written by laymen for laymen. There are no bar graphs scientific jargon . It is written straightforward and captures the three big lifts , squat, bench press and deadlift and accessory exercises in this order . It is full of useful , viable, usable information. The first chapter covers Louis’ and WSBB trek through their weightlifting education and the conjugate system . So the reader knows where the author is coming from. You can never have too much education or experience in a sport, endeavor or discipline in which you chose to dedicate time and effort into . This book is full of time , effort and experience.
I used this book to better understand the methods employed by westside barbell to redesign a training program tailored to my rodeo event and it does not disappoint. Strength is through the roof, as well as mobility. Highly recommend this book to anyone who considers themselves to be a serious athlete or lifter.
Struggling through a system of waves inside waves inside waves, book of methods helped clear a lot up for me. Im sure it is clear and simple to guys who lived it. From the outside looking in not so much. Other templates out there and breakdowns seem to be missing stuff. Have parts cut out and are unclear. This book, Louies other writings and the Westside blogs he did got me sorted out enough I was able to get my four week waves down on a chalkboard. percentages, exercises, ect.
Honestly this book is a must have. I wish i had read this before hearing anyone else's take on the system.
Great books very informative
Products came in good condition and on time. The info in the books is very eye opening and extremely helpful in answering all questions regarding the conjugate system! I’m very satisfied with the purchase of these two great books. “The book of methods & The conjugate system enhanced through the research of westside barbell” Thank you guys for continuing on the Legacy!
