-The methods that were used by Soviet Weightlifters in mid to late 1900’s are the same methods used by current Chinese Weightlifters and are the same methods used by the strongest Powerlifters on earth, and now are the methods used by Pioneered Strength. Louie Simmons at Westside Barbell is the man who brought these methods to main stream in the US, and is usually referred to as the Conjugate Sequence System. This system has a large exercise selection and many training methods that can be interchangeable between lifters or time of season. Understanding these methods is extremely important to Pioneered Strength trainees so that they can all be part of the learning and planning processes with the coach.

Starting in Aron’s Garage gym by himself he began to ask others to train with him. His new training partners invited more friends and those friends brought more, and eventually became large enough to start a profitable training business. The team learned methods from reading, watching videos, experimenting, and listing to others and acquired the knowledge to become as strong as they can be in the weight room. Every person that has walked through the doors of Pioneered Strength has made an increase in strength, proving that the knowledge learned is correct and works for everyone.
