No One Likes an Unexpected Load

- Misloads occur when the weight on either side isn’t equal because you never mastered how to match shapes and numbers. (Which would also technically make you a “misload.”) This can either lead to a catastrophic accident or make for a hilarious meme. Rip explains the importance of always checking the weight on the bar to make sure it is balanced.

Shit. I don't need a second person to fuck this up, I'm perfectly capable of fucking it up myself.
Rip looks like he’s leaned out a bit. Expect to see his “Get RIPped in 90 Days” program available soon.
I was once sitting on a bench resting between sets and my eyes wandered around the gym. I spotted a guy getting ready to do a squat and noticed he had at least one more 45-plate one one side than the other. I ran over and got his attention just as he was about to unrack. I pointed to his plates and I will never forget the look of horror that appeared in his eyes.
My ex-wife used to tell me that a lot.
Nothing better than a surprise load pulling it out of the rack...
From the title, I thought this would be about spotting the squat from behind the lifter.
This style of videos that have been coming out recently are good.
Nick has this videography and lighting thing figured out
Like the vids inside WFAC. One of the best gyms I've ever seen....
Good advice.
I’ve had this happen four or five times but I am the only person who loads my bar, so…. I learned to double check. Just need to get distracted a little and you forget a 10.
I scoffed at this earlier today. Then damned if i didn't do it squatting this afternoon. Thanks, Rip.
I personally have three independent case studies that disprove this title.
I'm more interested in the wooden bench.
It will happen eventually. I workout in my garage, and I remember a time when I squatted 225 x 5 as a warm up set, then after I loaded another plate, I was interrupted by my sweet little daughter coming outside. After that conversation, I went to squat it and thought WHAT THE ****. I had 3 plates on one side and 2 on the other. Thankfully, I was able to set it down without issue. This is why it's so important to do all these movements inside a rack with the safeties set appropriately - because these things happen.
What a title!!!!
No one has ever, or will ever, load my plates. Ain't no way
I triple check all my loads. I was at the meet where they misloaded Ed Coan an extra 70 pounds on the squat and he got pinned. I think it was the next meet where he blew off his patellar tendon. I always felt that misload caused it
Good to see Rip
he looks well
@@bensisko2443 A very healthy shade of pink
I check every time
I really thought this would be about Gianna Michaels.
Bear down!
who's the new tattoo girl? looks very strong
I don't understand. Do I need to eat more you say?
You need to drink more. Get a gallon of milk
This is what you upload when you’ve run out of content ideas.
Haha I was thinking the same thing. There’s only so many videos they can make on the squat
bs! this is important stuff. safety is the number one in everything we do in the gym.
