Since today is bench day, here is a fine piece of podcast for your listening pleasure.
Eric Spoto & Stan Efferding were guests on the Vegas Power Hour.
I enjoy lifting weights. If there was no competition, if non of this existed, I would be lifting the exact same weight at the gym every Monday. – Eric Spoto
Topics:
- Eric’s first meet at Kings of Bench
- after he didn’t lift a lot leadin up to Kings of Bench (12 days of not benching), he overcompensated a week before the backyard meet, doing 765 lbs lockouts for reps
- Eric’s consistently huge training volume /intensity
- Supertraining Backyard Meet; why he opened with a record, looking back he would not have done that; what went wrong -> mental issue, he didn’t know why he missed the first
- next backyard meet in march 2013
- geared lifting
- fragmentation of the sport
- making meets more attractive for lifters
