Maximum Effort

As covered in my last article, the dynamic effort (DE) session is dedicated to speed. Max effort (ME) is dedicated to huge weights and re-writing the record books every session you train. My approach is a bit different from the traditional Westside approach. Powerlifters must train for a 1 rep max, but strongman may require a 1 rep max, a heavy weight done for numerous reps, or a relatively lighter weight done for time.
