From T Nation:
As far as strength coaches go, T NATION has some of the industry's heaviest hitters hanging around the company weight room.
Thibaudeau, Tate, Cressey, Wendler, Robertson, Poliquin, Minor; these
guys are experts at helping everyone from professional athletes to
ordinary humans lift extraordinary weight. And because these guys are as
good as they are, it's fair to say they've each become pretty popular
with the segment of T NATION readers who live and die by their PR's.
However, many of our readers just aren't that interested in
superhuman strength. These guys are bodybuilders first and foremost.
While they might respect a strong lifter and maybe do some low rep
training on occasion, for these folks it's physique first, poundage a
distant second. The weights are merely a means to an end.
If you're one of these lifters, Scott Abel is your coach.
Scott is a bodybuilder through and through. He doesn't train heavy,
admits he's never been particularly strong and has zero interest in how
much his clients can bench or squat. Scott's specialty is physique
enhancement and he's coached over 300 champions, from raw novices to Mr.
Olympia hopefuls in a career that is currently entering it's fourth
decade.
Scott has been around T NATION for a while and is getting a little
tired of all these strength coaches hogging the bandwidth. He's also
getting downright cranky with some of these same strength coaches trying
to dole out bodybuilding advice to trainees that he feels is either
inefficient or flat out wrong.
Tempo, timed rest intervals, and the "myth" that if you train for
strength, development will come; Scott Abel barbecues so many sacred
cows you'd think he was hosting his own cooking show called Guru Grilling.
But if you just want to get as big and lean as humanly possible, then
believe it or not, Scott Abel may be just the coach you're looking for.
