You & the production bro are the most underrated hidden gem in this whole fitness youtube community. Awesome video as always! Thanks!!
Thanks man! Hopefully we aren't hidden gems for too long lol
Agreed.
my new goal is a 405lb deadbug.
You gotta load your deadbugs bruh
+Calgary Barbell I'm also going for a 2 hour plank. It will be a PR I've been chasing for a while now.
+ADAPT ONE lmao the irnoy
Dude the quality of your editing is awesome. I feel like im watching a tv show rather than a youtube video. Awesome stuff man!
Fantastic video, as always😃 I found it especially helpful that you explained the breathing in so much detail 😊
Your channel is seriously underrated, definitely my favourite lifting channel on CZcams, always good info man! Cheers from worst case Ontario!
Great pointers here Bryce. Much appreciated.
Thank you for this video. Exactly what i've been looking for
Really helpful video mate 👍I'm a fairly experienced lifter and I've previous experienced some of the issues you mentioned. I've been all good lately but even after just briefly trying this I could immediately see what you meant about keeping your core activated without letting your spine go into extension. Fantastic drill and I'll be using it in my warm ups from now on, thanks mate!
I'm constantly
astounded at how little subscribers this channel has. It's honestly
my favourite channel with really great content. I can't wait for my
Calgary shirts to arrive!
Thank you! We always appreciate the support!
Weasel Ftwmate I subscribe too today👍.
@Mike Greer hmmmm...mark doesn't teach powerlifting tho
Great video man. Thanks
Never heard of these before. Thanks
This is great info !!!
This channel will grow for sure
You are so relevant to my training 🤸♀️🤗
Excellent content - shout out from BC :)
I see you mentioned adding some resistance. Use a exercise ball; we do these at our club and they kill.
Hold the exercise ball at the top and try to compress slightly: Left-hand/right leg, then alternate by trading at the top. Basically limbs are in full extension.
Such a nice video
Very valuable
Thanku for your work ❤
Great video! And to be honest, it makes me feel better about my own technique. I struggle to do them well then I hear other people breezing through twice as big of sets as mine. I go slow and deliberate because it feels more challenging and gives me the challenge I want. TLDR; thanks for the video.
4:21 now i see the resemblance of a dead bug :D
Subscribed! Good work bud!
Hey man I really love these exercise spotlight videos and would definitely appreciate more. Thanks for the great content as always.
More you shall have
Love doing deadbug - one of the best exercise for me
Banded deadbugs ( around your ankles to work your hip flexors ) are also a good variety my trainer recommended me months ago. Thanks for the video
These are fantastic! I forgot about them! Used to do them as part of my warm ups. Thanks for this, I will be throwing them back in for my warm ups. Great video, guys!
Good call buddy, it's worth it IMO to do these often
Would love to see a video of a full stretching and mobility routine.
great info , thanks. Will you make some vids about "prehab" movements ? especially shoulders / elbows
The fact i learned something and laughed twice in this video, makes this a amazing video. Great job Bryce
Haha that's exactly our goal! Thanks for watching!
I realise this is now a pretty old video, but had to comment...I’ve never ‘got’ dead bugs before. This video is a game changer for me - quality tutorial, thanks!
Nice instructions
when i went to physiotherapy for my back injury my physiotherapist reccomended i do these but squeeze a large excercise ball between my knees and elbows while on my back and hold it for 30-45 seconds. worked wonders for me
Great video you've got a new sub, also would you recommend a rep range or just go till failure on this exercise? I plan to use it to correct my APT
Thank you
Great video - I prefer the feet up as it engages the hamstrings much more.
LMAO the rushing through it part got me😂, awesome video man I'll try to look into doing these!
JUST DO IT
This seems really nice, having a bit of issue with over-arching lately so I'm definatley gonna give this one a go!
Let me know how it goes!
thanks so much, learnt something very useful and made me laugh too ;DDD
The Donald Trump breathing thing killed me
Thought some people would like it
literally split out my water. I was not expecting that.
2:36 I lol'd
it aged well
Added from Thrawls channel. Already a good start to my new subscription :)
same. great content
Quick question from your pin squat video, how do pin squats compare to box squats? What are the differences and which one is more beneficial to overall squat strength? Thanks Bryce! I do appreciate you answering your subscribers questions!
(In theory) box squats allow you to keep your core braced but pin squats take the weight off your trunk at the bottom which hammers your ability to brace (go light if you are new to pin squats)
Pin Squats punish you more for beeing in a bad bottom position also the movement is propably more similar to your normal comp Squat
thanks
This video came just in time... I've been using a not-so-informative youtube vid on how to do this for the last two weeks. Thanks guys!
Also I heard you're coming to Winnipeg!? Can't wait to meet you guys haha
No problem man! We're Looking forward to meeting everyone in Winnipeg!
Just tryed it after the video. Wow nice! I will do them every trainining. Perfekt for my weak core and not straight back. Greatings from Austria :)
Nice!!!
please make a video about hip impingement
Okay, you made that shit up
God damn this is a good channel. I have zero doubt you'll be at 100K in no time with this type of content, as well as form check Friday.
Keep it up. Your my fav YT fitness channel by a mile now a days.
#OGsub
That would be great! I'm mostly stoked we have a lot of people like yourself tuning in who believe in us!
Implemented these into my routine yesterday, haven't had my abs feeling punished like this for a Long time!
chris duffin approved :D
Yeah that's definitely where I got the open scissor - closed scissor idea from!
the lying bird dog is a game changer
Loved the video. But it would be better if you talk little bit about how to fix it if we can't put our back straight to floor.
Super helpful video, also Bryce your arms are looking huge Dylan better watch out
Goddamn right he better watch out hahaha
I like the Marvel like colors on your tattoos.
Could you clarify when you are inhaling/exhaling…thanks
Hey, wouldn't training the hollow body be the end goal?
Hey man if we are tackling a weakness on left side of trunk is there anyway to use this to help correct that?
Thanks man, this is great! Just under 2 weeks out from a meet, looking ahead now to design my offseason to fix a lot of the imbalances I have and work on my issues as I slowly get stronger in the main lifts. I neglected many of my issues and imbalances in the 3 months since my last meet.
I hope this helps buddy!
Thanks! It was nice seeing your name on the nationals list. I was hoping to make it out there but I'm a broke student so I will be watching online.
Bryce can you do a video on water loading?
It's not something I'm super familiar with but I'll do some reading, a good buddy of mine just wrote an e-book on cutting weight for meets, so I may mention that on the channel.
Normally we breathe out on the concentric, how come here we're breathing in as we return to the starting position?
I like at the 5:00 mark the bottle of ammonia peeking out
Is there any space in between your low back and the floor? Or are you trying to completely flatten it out? Thanks!
Try to completely flatten it out
How many of these should I do?
tried it out in todays workout. Pretty hard exercise. i hope that ll fix a part of my back problems. :) id like to know what u think about planks and if it has a positive effect to put some plates on the shoulders :P
Greetings from Germany keep up da good work :)
Should you do these weighted with dumbbells, after progressing with reps?
TheEmperiorD no I wouldn't. What I would do is progress to static holds, and breathing during said holds. I think there's a point of diminishing returns where if you can do these properly for a moderate number of reps, I don't think you'll get any added benefit from adding extra weight.
hey bryce i am currently doing standing cable crunches. is it hip flexor dominant like standard crunches? cuz i have little apt ?
Not necessarily hip flexor dominant but it's a flexion movement which I see as less useful than bracing exercises where the core remains static.
Calgary Barbell thank you!
Track name please?
could you do a video on getting your glutes and hips to "fire" during squats and conventional deadlifts. my QL and TFL are over compensating so my physio therapist is asking me to learn how to get my hips and glutes to properly fire to get a work out as well during squats and deadlifts.
thanx in advance
Hmmm that's a super tough one man, I'd honestly just use some lower weights, some tempo stuff, and pauses, maybe mix some glute bridging into your warmups or inbetween sets even. I'm not sure how else to tackle that one, probably best to ask a PT who knows lifting. What is the lack of "firing" causing you? Pain? How/where/when?
Calgary Barbell ya its causing me massive pain in my psoas muscles and knees cause there over compensating cause my hips and glutes arent doing the work my knees and psoas muscles and tendons are taking the weight instead of my glutes quads and hamstrings and hips, i got cleared from my physio therapist to start squating and deadlifting again,and i was doing 300 on squats and i got a sharp pain thru my knee and dropped tightness in my back and turned into a good morning,so i was hoping you had some sorta advice or tips atleast..i do shoulder width stance for squats and conventional deadlifts..and i squeeze my glutes thru out the movements i lose tension in my glutes in the hole so as im coming back up i get the sharp pain

Why don't you email a video in to form check Friday - calgarybarbell2@gmail.com - it might take a while, but we'll get your video analyzed and we can see if there's anything going wrong in your lifts.
Thanks for that, I was wondering how I can train my core while not crying like a lil bitch everytime I take out the ab roller, haha. how would you "program" them when doing? Just go to failure or as often as you can?
I would start with like 3 sets of 6-8 per side, and just progress through increasing reps. Maybe 1-2X a week
thanks man!
You've probably explained this in a previous video but do you have education in Kinesiology or is this type of stuff just through experience? Either way well done. Love the channel and content.
I did a two year diploma program for personal trainers that was kind of like a shorter, more training focused kinesiology geared towards those who want to train and coach people. It was perfect for what I do now IMO. Self education though, is incredibly necessary and permanently ongoing. So a bit of both, to answer the question!
How do you get your back flat if you can't? Any exercises that anyone can recommend?
This will come from posteriorly tilted your pelvis- commonly put, tucking your tail between your legs. To take it down a level, you can bend your hips and knees (hookyling position) and push a towel underneath your low back- work on controlling your pelvis and lumbar spine to flatten into the towel.
How do you only have 20k... madness
Sbd knee sleeves or Titan yellow jackets?
You know me man - all Titan err-thang
It's surprising how much you actually feel these when you're doing it right
That's for damn sure!
I am 68 years old and just starting strength training. I can do this movement fairly well with my right leg, but when I lower the left leg there is a popping in my hip flexor area. It doesn't really hurt but I wonder if I am doing damage or if I should just push through it.
How long have you been doing these for?
I first introduced these when I first started struggling with my hip injury. Core bracing seems to have a lot to do with how my hips work, so it's been a great tool.
Calgary Barbell yea, bracing and hip function seems to really work together...bracing just helps everything imo. I tend to do core work at the end of most of my training days for roughly 50-100+ total reps, do you think it is beneficial to have these added in there on one of the days? Maybe superset it with another core movement?
I absolutely vouch for these over many other core movements. I generally stay away from any spinal flexion core movements and stick to stabilizing patterns
What other core movements would you recommend apart from this?
Man I tried finding one of the gorilla barbell shirts you wear on your store but it seems you don’t sell that style shirt
We’re launching more of those specifically in June!
Thanks I will be getting one..I am 45 and just started the 5x5 stronglifts, I’m learning allot from these videos thanks
great video guys. that trump clip had me dying 😂😂😂
#alternativeexercises
I've a love hate relationship with this exercise, for sure
That sums it up yep haha
Did you get your tattoos before you were Jacked AF or after?
What causes anterior pelvic tilt? I've been powerlifting for over a year now, and I see a.p.t. manifest itself in a really tight lower back on squat days. Could something like a hard mattress help?
what do you do if can't keep your back flat on the ground?
I'd say that's the first thing you need to work on. Before you worry about moving your limbs at all, make sure you can get into the position. Once you can, maybe try just moving slightly, not to full extension. The progression would then be in range of motion first and foremost. Does that make sense?
Calgary Barbell yes that does, well I guess for me when I start the movement I can generate enough intraabdominal pressure to force my lower back flat but then when I go towards extension I'm unable to keep my back flat on the ground, is that an issue? and if so are there other assistance exercise that may help with this? thanks so much for the reply I really appreciate it!
You can straighten your legs at the top to increase the difficulty.
No volume
Who else is here after "The Powerlifter"
the Trump breath caught me so off guard XD XD XD too funny.
I dont know why but I tried this and felt like I was doing nothing 🤔
Hmm that's really strange. I would bet that you're definitely not stabilizing your trunk properly, but it may be that you have superhuman core strength haha. I'd keep trying, play with the breathing and being conscious of keeping your back pressed into the floor and at the same time pulling your ribs down into your abs
Calgary Barbell - I've had clients bring their knees too close to their chest. That tips the hips, which flattens the back automatically without any core stabilization and it suddenly gets easy. keep the legs at 90° so the core will have to be actively braced.
Sandra - that's a super good point as well!
I was told that if I want to safely return to soccer after a back injury that I should be able to do these for 10 mins straight. It's been 2 months I've only worked up to 4 minutes and I'm training everyday. Is 10 minutes possible?
10 minutes straight? Seems excessive to me, but I’m not a physiotherapist. I’d maybe seek a second professional opinion.
Left a comment about SSB-squats to pin squat video but didn't get any response. Dumb idea or just a missed comment?
Hey buddy, I must have missed it, I'll double check.
It is so damn cool that you answer questions. So many people that claim they want to help others, won't even attempt to read what they even commented.
I think it just comes down to motives. We really want to share the experience leading up to national and world level competition, as well as put out useful/helpful content. We couldn't really do any of this if it wasn't for you guys so replying to comments is the least we could do!
Lol @2:36. G-d bless 45, the greatest of our time!
Coulda swore I read/heard Dr Stu Mcgill said not to do movements like this.
Ive destroyed at least 1 disc in my back already, I could see this bothering people with similar issues
I practice this exercise every day, but I breathe reverse. Another great exercise is bird-dog :-)
I agree, birddogs are great too!
*deep breath* 'WRONG'
"You're fake abs"
Anyone else have pain in their upper pubic region when they do this?
Sounds like you're just working close to the limit of what your abs can handle, probably just the rectus abdominis insertion point. Has this gotten easier with time? Also, not going past the range of motion you can comfortably handle and taking your time with progress should help.
I was NOT. READY. for Trump 😂😂 oy.... but thanks for the rest lol
Could you do this in bed 🛌?
