Really? People who do "functional training" don't get any noticeable results, ever.

By what definition? Supine hip extensions and supine hip extensions w/ leg curl greatly improved my ability to move weight under control and balance and therefore improved my ability to move more weight with less incident of injury.
Secondly, where did John advocate pure functional training?
You're reading more than is there.

...Just imagine how much stronger he would be on that very workout if he did it 3 times a week, not once a month, lol.  |
I believe you totally pooch screwed the interpretation of what LD said along with a lot of others. I'm sure LD can defend his own words, but as a precursor:
I think Lost Dog was talking about a program of basic moves (Squat, deadlift, VPUSh, VPULL, etc) to use as assessment once a month or so.
I'm interested in hearing what LD has to say, but I'm confident in his thinking, not yours.
I think you're going to be taking it on the chin from others soon.
