Can the same principals be applied to other lifts...? Eg bench?
I lol @ how people behave as if it's some secret fucking ultimate routine
I've noticed it's mainly used by people who don't know how to program their own training effectively

That shit works to bring up a lagging lift. It is held in awe because it is brutal and effective. When you look at the lifts on paper you think there is no way that is doable it pushes you just short of the brink of failure.

Scott Hill who placed 6th in the 93kg division at the IPF Raw Worlds uses Smolov quite regularly. Sticky also has used it to a fair degree of success and so have I.
I don't see many people calling it the ultimate routine at all actually, I just see a lot of people suggesting caution because of the brutal workload it entails.
