It is really great to see someone as educated and passionate as Mitch use their status to promote health and longevity among people. Keep it up!
100%
Certainly better than the standard Strongman videos of "watch me chow down 12000 kcal" and other exaggerated "day in the life of" blox
My favorite thing about this video was the fact that the coach was willing to admit where he's been wrong before and that he has learned. Something not many coaches are willing to do. Mitch, I love your mission to give back to the local strength communities, much love!
These players just got so much valuable knowledge in 11 minutes.
I’m glad that I learned I’ve been doing OHP incorrectly for years. So amazing to see him giving these great tips to up and coming athletes so they can learn to be stronger in a safer way.
The only thing he didn't go over is that I would try to keep the bar path as close to the nose as possible to limit arching. Past the nose then pull your head forward just slightly to get it under. I often actually brush my nose with it on the descent. His habits are about log pressing, which probably made it so he wouldn't think to mention bar path. He's used to horsing this massive implement over his meaty head. Of course what feels comfortable is probably best, in the end.
Yeah, I've pressed looking forward this was an eye opener
I love all the practical training tips with your channel. Thank you.
Really extraordinary to see the success of brains + brawn. What makes it extra exciting is you look at Mitchell Hooper and you see a stout, large fellow but not at the gargantuan level of Shaw, Hafthor, etc. To see him equal / dominate these leviathans (soon v. Hafthor?) gives us mere mortals faith that good things come in "small" packages.
Calling The Moose a small package is hilarious - but you are right, he is normal looking human.
Thanks so much for sharing this. Really neat to see someone as knowledgeable as you sharing this info
As a teacher myself, this warmed my heart. Thank you so much Mitch for spending time to educate the younger generation and helping them to get better 🙌
What a genuine guy. Wish we had someone like Mitch visit us at school when I first started lifting. Keep up the good work Mitch. You’re awesome!
...Thank you, Mitch, for being a great ambassador for Strongman. You're literally doing everything right, and its a joy to have a champ that's leading by example. Kudos.
Thank you, Mitch I've been lifting for awhile and I just learned something new about every one of the those lifts. The way you explained the mechanics of the movements was great. If you're ever wondering what kind of content to put out, I recommend this kind of stuff. Thank you, again.
this was one of the best videos on youtube, wish we would have had someone like this visit when I was on the highschool football team - would have made a HUGE difference
For the squat, it's really a great tip for taller guys to put their knees more on the outside. I'm not that tall (5"10), and I just tried that way and it gives me better range of motion ! Thanks Mitch !
By the way, the titles for the timestamps are so wrong lol
Agreed. People always say "tall" but it's really more about proportions. I've seen tall guys, AND shorter guys some times, with short torsos and long legs for their height. And you also get taller guys who are built like most short guys, with a longer torso and short legs.
@@demetriuscooksey7147 jose aldo and stipe miocic are great examples of this
It's largely due to anatomy, it's not select to only tall people, it affects all height ranges. When you squat with your feet pointing forwards, your hips are limited in ROM in comparison to your toes pointing slightly outwards, this is because the head of the femur hitting the acetabulum of the hip.
I've been back at the gym for just over two years now, and I've been treating squat, deadlift and bench as my main three lifts. Just yesterday, I decided to start prioritising OHP over bench, although part of me was still feeling weird not prioritising bench. So this video has come at the absolute perfect time for me!
Absolutely loved this.
Man its great and refreshing just seeing this done as teaching and genuinely want to help them learn instead of just showing how much you know.
This is great man.
Another great video champ! I’ve been lifting for 25 years and I always learn something here
I love Mitch. Such a smart, solid and stand up guy.
Sharing his literal world class knowledge with kids, in a fantastically accessible way.
Awesome stuff.
Great video Mitch. I think your philosophy and approach to people as individuals, with all of their differences really shows in your way with people too! Very refreshing and frankly wonderful to see!
Shows the class of the man!!! Goes out of his way to share knowledge… already a legend!!!!!
People like him and Brian are the reason this sport of Strongman will be so good in the next 10 years or so. Thanks to you both and all the others who dedicate themselves to others!
Bloody awesome Mitch... great work teaching the young bucks coming through.
Great to see you sharing your experience and tips with the next gen :)
This is great Mitch. Can you discuss best power movements for athletes? Also, a good cycle of strength and power phases of a preseason workout schedule.
I just learned a bucketload of information then! That is a fantastic video!
Picked up a few pointers. Thank you.
Great guide. Gonna share this with many friends.
2:55 the way he lifts the bar with plate via flick of the wrist
Mitchell is such a good teacher man it's nice to see him educating
outstanding lecture
That is SO cool, teaching some kids how to do things! Wish I had someone tell me how to do those movements properly when I was young; would have saved me years of frustration and from a lot of wear & tear and injuries.
Awesome how he really gets through with that much in such a short time! I guess for some leaning more backwards with their OHP dies make sense tho
Very good instruction
This is awesome way to go man👊🤙
Dropping some knowledge 💪
Giving back great stuff
Mitch coaching people to not lean back on overhead press is like watching Eddie give a seminar on hydration.
Damn man mitch always with the myth busting
Your videos are very good
I’ve had dumb coaches telling me my squat looked bad forever. I can’t get down to range going toes forward it feels like my shit will snap off this is great stuff
This is great news to me i was born with outward facing hips so when i squat heavy with toes pointed forward i feel a very large pressure in my knees, I was always worried to widen the stance to something that feels much more natural!
Hey Mitch Fabian can you explain the functionality between the shoulder press and be ch press and where you think serves overall in life.
What a cool guy passing on this knowledge
Wish I'd known this when I was 16. Good stuff!
It’s always blown my mind how undereducated football players are when it comes to the weight room. So many strength coaches should be ashamed of themselves. This is the place where so many injuries start
Question for Mitch. Programming for hockey I include deadlift (posterior chain in puck protection) and squat (everything haha). I've had the debate overhead press/bench and traditionally choose more "bench" exercises. Your reasons for overhead press in football I get but hockey players tend to be more upright when "pushing" in battles to be in a better position to protect themselves from oncoming body checks and quicker use of evasion skills when the battle is won/lost. Moreover, to be strong on the stick and even when shooting I feel there is a high degree of pec activation but I have no science to back that up just what I feel when performing the skills. Your thoughts...
Wish you’d been around when I was in high school (unfortunately, you weren’t even born yet). Our wrestling coach was super strict about the toes straight ahead bs. When I got out of high school and took up powerlifting, my coach immediately corrected that. I’m 6’1” with long legs and a short torso, plus wide hips that seem to be naturally rotated out. Soon as I changed squat form, my weights went waaaaaay up, and all knee pain went away.
i was thinking about the sumo squat/sumo deadlift varitations for folks with specific issues/situations, whats your take on using sumo variations?
gotta love mitchell class act
💪💪
Did I understand this correctly: In season to not squat as deep / parallel depending on stance, foot position and how ones hip is built? And use off season for deeper squats bc otherwise its wasted energy? BC I always feel and observe getting WAY stronger by squatting just above parallel and my muscles in the legs just EXPLODE size-wise by doing so bc I can put on 40%(!!) more weight by just sqatting a few inches less deep. I have maximum retroverted hips btw.
Hey high school kids did you know who the world's strongest man is
Magic Class Act. Pro Powerlifting Pro Basketball all-pro type 🎉
LHBK!
Sended it to some friends complaining how i held my breath in movement
That was the quietest group of teenager. Probably cause a giant was teaching them
Love from India
Lol lucky bastards. I had to pay for mine. So cool they got to see these lessons first hand
Football coach seemed cool
goat
Oh hey, I think the chapters have titles from another video. Got a bit confused for a moment. 🙃
those dudes did not seem to be very passionate about that lesson 🗿 luckily you are
I'm not sure the chapter titles match the video.
Bench press is more important for football than overhead
Rows should be added to this
Think the segments in the video have the wrong titles lol
👑🦀🍁
Litterally black friday
you play sports on your feet, not your back. ive always felt that the bench emphasis in football is stupid
Tough crowd

i hit a 315lb log press today but idk if it counts because it looks like my knees double dipped a little. how do you stop your feet from moving after pressing and double dipping.
Such dogmatic views, absolutist statements, and so little science, nor common sense. Bracing better than technique, don't bench but ohp, don't lean too much but also not too little, long femurs can't squat deep, knees out/wide stance for long femurs, don't butt wink, ... Straight up "bro science". To not just be a toxic hater, I'll (try to) provide some nuance as to why I said what I said: While bracing is widely accepted to be conducive to your lifts, and many of us do so reflexively, it's challenged by some and so not unanimously accepted. You should keep in mind that you get good at what you train, you should still experiment for yourself. And there is absolutely 0 evidence it's the single greatest thing to prevent back pain. It's just an opinion. Which will only sometimes hold true. I could tell you technique is, or core strength, or stress/load management, or half a dozen other things that I can't even think of. And they would also be true, but only selectively. (Though honestly I think load management covers most if not all of it 😜). Anyways onwards... Absolutely do ohp. But don't ditch bench. That's about as dumb as bench but don't ohp. You're in the weight room to get a stronger, more resilient body. So expose yourself to heavy loads and different positions, so you can adapt and grow strong in different ranges. Don't pidgeon hole yourself in just a few movement patterns. Leave sport specificity largely to playing your sport and doing drills. Most if not all of what you in the weight room is too far removed from your sport and serves mostly to create tissue adaptation. I can't believe a strongman says don't lean too much. Hello? Log press? In tht same line of thinking, not leaning enough doesn't really exist either. All you have to do is look at Olympic lifters too see they do the exact opposite and they do it pretty darn well. Squeeze your glutes is a good tip but the rest... You could even make the argument that you, within reason, want to lean as much as possible to get more pec involvement going (that is, if your goal is to get the most weight up. Not necessarily if you want to get stronger tissue or stronger in some movement pattern.) Long femurs can contribute to, but are fr from the only or the primary factor in how deep you can squat. And whether a wider stance and/or pushing your knees out is going to help will depend far more on your hip structure than on the length of your femur. And lastly a butt wink can be but (like so many things) isn't necessarily a bad thing. i'd say the approach is fairly simple: avoid it if it cause pain, don't if it doesn't. I'm not saying you should mind you. Just that there's no reason to avoid it if there is no indicator for it. And for all those saying ir will catch up to you? Guess what that's just more dogma, regurgitated endlessly, yet another claim unsupported by science. Which by the way doesn't mean it can't happen. It just means that's by and large not the default outcome.
This one is easy: squad bench press deadlift lol
Squat pull up and military press is much more balanced.
@Peter-xl9nb no lol, deadlift is the most important of the three for athletics actually
You're in no position to teach overhead press to anyone. The worst of all time
He's log pressed 430 lbs for 3 reps brother
Mitch can't log press correctly. They are a disgrace. More of an inclined bench . Look dreadful. Ref to blame not Mitch . We were all laughing in the gym watching. He should be pressing 600 pounds using that form.
