Bit of a bump here, but I read this article by Greg Nuckols a few days ago and it really reminded me of this thread.

Powerlifters Should Train More Like Bodybuilders

Basically, it talks about how one of the best ways to increase long term strength is to increase muscle mass. One of the best ways to increase muscle mass is by training like a bodybuilder. So in the offseason traditional bodybuilding methods are great, help increase mass and work capacity, and then follow a peaking plan.

Greg has a 755 squat, 475 bench and 725 deadlift, so he's certainly not a scrub.
