Louie Simmons, founder of Westside Barbell and the developer of the Conjugate Method, built a legacy as one of powerlifting’s most influential figures. A competitive powerlifter for over 40 years, he achieved Elite status in five weight classes and was one of the only lifters to squat over 920 lb, bench 600 lb, and deadlift 722 lb after age 50, with Totals often exceeding 2,000 lb across multiple classes.

As a coach and mentor, Simmons trained and influenced countless elite strength athletes, including world record holders and high-profile powerlifters.

This workout was republished Apr/2006 from POWERLIFTINGUSA.

The Westside squat routine is part of Simmons’s Conjugate Method, a non-linear strength training framework built around multiple weekly training types rather than long single-quality blocks

Proven results for geared squat strength: his routine is purpose-built to produce maximal single-rep strength in a suit.
