BarBend Classic: Powerlifting Legend Jen Thompson's Training Routine
Manage episode 344427457 series 2530048
Here's a super-popular (and super-relevant) one from our archives. Today we’re talking to 11-time IPF World Champion and Hall of Fame powerlifter Jen Thompson. Summarizing ALL of Jen’s accomplishments in strength in a quick intro is frankly impossible. She’s one of powerlifting’s all-time greats and still very much a dominant force in the sport, both when competing on the platform and through her contributions as an organizer and advocate. We talk about Jen’s current training and programming split, her favorite accessory movements for a legendary bench press, and how powerlifting has changed over her 20 plus years in the sport. We also talk about where there’s still room for improvement, especially on the international level.
