Jim Wendler posted this today, about his own pivot. Perhaps of interest:

This is also a good article.

I don't think the point of either this one or the original article posted in this thread is to bash barbell training, but rather that at different points in life, it helps to re-assess what you are doing, and think about whether your previously-held idea of what constitutes "being awesome" still matches your life.

And of course, moral superiority and doctrinaire thinking in fitness are definitely not limited to those who enjoy powerlifting training. Kettlebell zealots are very zealous indeed. As are bodyweight proselytizers, runner's high addicts, and folks who spend six hours every Sunday in a bike saddle, among many others.

The simple takeaway from both articles ought to be that if you can avoid dogmatic thinking in all areas of your life, including fitness and physical pursuits, you're likely going to be better off.
