Lou, Great interview. It's nice to see you over at T-nation.
I liked these comments...
"I started lifting when I was 13, and even though I had no idea what I was doing, I was able to put on enough muscle to at least feel better about myself–as long as I was doing something about it, I could deal with sucking."
"T-Nation: Lou, how'd you get into the fitness journalism biz as opposed to, say, the lingerie model journalism biz?
Lou Schuler: I couldn’t get a job waiting tables!"
"My training week is based on Westside ideas right now, primarily from Dave Tate’s "8 Keys" series here in T-Nation. Max-effort bench, max-effort squat, dynamic-effort bench, dynamic-effort squat. (By the way, I want to throw a shout-out here to my friend Craig Ballantyne, who turned me on to Westside workouts more than three years ago.)"
Amen to that...
