Sport-Specific: Westside For Skinny Bastards

**Peaked_18** · 10-05-2005, 02:13 AM

Any athlete seeking strength and speed, I would recommend Westside For Skinny Bastards.

Look around his site and you'll see how much success has been proven from this program.

It is by far one of the best programs for athletes of any sport.

bigpump23 · 10-11-2005, 03:53 PM

Joe D has recently came out with part 2, which IMO blows the first one away but none the less both excellent programs

**Peaked_18** · 10-11-2005, 09:51 PM

Yeah, depends on a lot of opinons though. Do you nderstand it?

**bigDman** · 10-11-2005, 11:28 PM

i did a modifcation of the second one and loved it

geoffsherman · 10-17-2005, 07:47 PM

Hands down the best routine I have ever used. I am not a powerlifter, but the theory and results I have seen from it are awesome. I have done this and Max-OT and WS4SB II was better results for me. My legs are finally starting to grow a little. 'Bout time!!

Check out elitefts.com if you are looking for more info as Joe posts on there and answers questions a lot more frequently on there than he does on his site.

**Peaked_18** · 10-17-2005, 11:12 PM

Yeah www.elitefts.com has a lot of articles.

Also www.defrancostraining.com - the Q&A section is great!

This is by far the best sport-soecific workout program.

Also for those who get it, I believe FitTV is doing a show on DeFranco later this month or in November. Check out the FitTV site and look for the show being hosted by Gabrielle Reece.

LaggingBiceps · 10-18-2005, 07:21 PM

WS4SB is really good. but i got injured :bowed: and im going to start it again next monday.

DeFranco is a powerlifting/strongman guy, he hates bodybuilding.

How the **** did you get hurt?

Steve_W · 10-18-2005, 10:26 PM

Anyone have a link to part 2?

Cheers.

i dont know. either my form on DB rows but i went to the doctor and im 95% sure its my posture while sitting down.

but its better now and ill probably resume everything again 100% on monday. and most likely, i lose a bit of strength

**Peaked_18** · 10-19-2005, 01:42 AM

Make sure you train safe, be careful. Don't injure yourself again, set you back ALOT more then you think.

LaggingBiceps · 10-19-2005, 01:46 AM

yeh :p and i looked in the book again and im stupid. theres a certain section after stretches about mobility drills. in the things like walking over the hurdles and etc etc

**Peaked_18** · 10-19-2005, 01:48 AM

Good you found it.

Steve_W · 10-19-2005, 10:35 AM

Cheers buddy. Part 2 looks freaking awesome, I shall definitely give it a try when finished cutting :nosthumbs

LaggingBiceps · 10-20-2005, 09:38 PM

Part II is good, but it would be better to do drills JUST for your sport. Like me doing basketball drills will help my agility in football but not if i do agility drills made JUST for football.

**bigDman** · 10-20-2005, 09:51 PM

yea well the guy had to make it broad

i mean you have to modfy his workout to fit you

Those drills aren't quiet for exact sports. If you do the ones given in the WS4SB II program those would benefit ALL sports. Remember the program isn't just aimed for football.

LaggingBiceps · 10-20-2005, 11:00 PM

Yeh, thats what im trying to say. its good for all sports, but if you want to get better at one sport, IMO its better to do drills just for the sport you need than to do things that are are good for all sports but less effective than drills specifically for a sport.

And what drills are these you speak of?

You mean ones with footballs when playing football, correct?

Or agility and speed stuff?

Because the agility and speed are good for all sports, there is no certain drill for certain sport.

LaggingBiceps · 10-21-2005, 11:32 AM

no, i dont want to get technical. im saying in general..
like this...

lets say you want to get better at one sport, for example football

Drill A is given as an exercise for all sports and gives you a 40% increase speed in football (orwhatever sport you are training for)

Drill B is an exercises JUST for football and gives you a 60% increase in football or any other sport.

and the speed increases i just put as examples, none of these are real.

im saying i would use drills that give me the best help in

hope i explained good.

geoffsherman · 10-21-2005, 12:31 PM

That is the whole benefit of that routine. It is a template and can be adjusted to whatever sport you need. For instance, DeFranco mentioned that for his wrestlers, he changes the ME exercise to pullups because the back is more involved than the chest in wrestling.

LaggingBiceps · 10-21-2005, 07:20 PM

yeh, i know. but im saying you can also do that to the original one too if you want.

**Peaked_18** · 10-21-2005, 07:45 PM

Name ONE exercise that only improves your football performance...

LaggingBiceps · 10-22-2005, 09:35 PM

blocking on A SLED

**Peaked_18** · 10-22-2005, 10:30 PM

That would help with a lot of other sports.

It's good to practice staying low.
