1998 Seminar Throwback
1998 Seminar Throwback
It's hard to believe it's been almost 25 years ago that I began doing seminars about the Conjugate Method. I first started doing them out of the old Westside Barbell Club with a misspelled flip chart. This was one of many things Louie helped me get a start with that I will be forever grateful. He'd stop in, listen, help out and tell me what I was messing up and how to make it better.
