Well, PTC is a tiny garage gym, and we deadlift a lot more than that, and we have 49 lifters pull 200kg raw, with a best of 273.5kg.
Starting Strength is a net based training forum, PTC is gym based, massive difference.
Rippetoe is a brilliant trainer, but his programs are generic, he cant monitor each lifter, I can, his lifters are off in internet land, mine are in my garage, so I have a massive advantage.
I dont speak on theories, just on real world results, not for one lifter (myself) but 100.
Most guys simply refer to their own experiences, I have the advantage on speaking on many.
Its like that little fag at Weaklifts, gets offended when somebody produces better results in 5% of the time, so he bans you so you cant spread the word.
Internet based training forums are crap. Results come from gym based, like elite fitness etc.
Nicks advice was spot on Dave.
