About Us

Westside Barbell

Westside Barbell is a world-class strength and conditioning facility located in Columbus, OH, focused on enhancing sports performance to the highest possible level. For many years, our gym produced some of the strongest powerlifters the world has ever known. Today, we carry on this mission working with collegiate and pro athletes. 

The Westside Barbell Conjugate Club represents decades of training experience and knowledge. For many years, Louie Simmons and members of the gym worked in the trenches to build and refine the most effective strength and conditioning training system, now known as the Conjugate Training System. This system focuses on developing all relevant strengths and athletic traits, depending on the athlete and the sport. 
Within the Conjugate Club, you will find monthly updated Conjugate Method exercise programming for the sports of Powerlifting, Strongman, and Olympic Weightlifting. The club is also home to all of our archived exercise programming, covering a wide range of sports (MMA, tactical training, Rugby, etc.), as well as our educational resources (WSBB books, VHS tapes, DVDs).
You may have heard you are only training Westside-style if you’re at Westside. While that is true, the Conjugate Club offers members unmatched access to our exercise programming and educational content, as well as direct contact with the Westside Barbell coaching staff. 
Our goal at Westside is simple: improve our athletes' performance and provide accurate insight into the Conjugate Method. While not everyone can travel to Columbus, OH, to train regularly, the Conjugate Club provides us with a platform to connect with coaches and athletes from around the world. 
Join today to gain immediate access to our monthly updated training plans, along with an unmatched library of Westside Barbell and Conjugate Method educational content. The Westside Barbell Conjugate Club is essential for any coach or athlete using the Conjugate Method.
