Dear coach Rip, My girlfriend has been diagnosed with hypermobility, which means she is unusually flexible around all joints, and can assume seemingly impossible positions with her body. She also has been diagnosed with macromastia, a condition characterized by abnormally large breasts. That's it. I don't really have any questions regarding training, or anything. Just writing you to brag about it. Cheers.
One day I would like to meet Mark , and shake the hand of the man behind Starting Strength. My fear is that in real life he is not as warm and cuddly as he appears on these podcasts.
Rip: "My mother dead lifted in a meet three or four months before she died" Testosterone Nation: "Dead Lifting Without A Trap Bar Will Kill You In Less Than Four Months"
The "no problem" response to a thank you is a younger generation thing. Millennials and younger typically. Best explanation is that we don't feel that it was a burden to do something we were asked or expected to do. I use it all the time at work when someone says thank you. I think people who say no problem are really trying to express that "no thanks was necessary" in the first place.
Rip, this was one of my favorite podcasts you have done. Thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment here and loved the material mentioned for classical liberalism.
22:40 I wonder why these movement experts never say anything about swimming (butterfly), yoga, gimnastics, long distance running, soccer, etc etc etc. But lifting more than 45 lbs will hurt you
Thank you for your time addressing fans questions. You have said on several occasions that it isn't lifting weights that makes you strong but the recovery from lifting weights that does. Lifting weights causes micro tears which is what heals resulting in stronger muscles fibers and greater cross section of these fibers. Would then further muscle contraction such as flexing after lifting further the effects of lifting weights and thus result in greater hyper trophy? I don't recall flexing as being part of the program. Why would it or would it not be? Thanks and cheers! Kyle
Hey Rip, I'm having an issue with my NLP. I am 6'6, 270lb, 26y/o male. Latest 5 rep PRs: 315 squat, 160 press, 215 bench, 240 powerclean, and 450 DL. I invested in building a home gym in 2019. I can no longer follow the program. My gym's ceiling is too short (89 inches) for me to press with plates wider than my 10lb ones and my next set calls for a heavier press than I have 10lb plates for. To get back on the program should I a.) carry my bar and weights outside on press days (id need to clean and press for this) b.) buy a comercial gym membership (if any of them still exist in Chicagoland area after shelter in place), c.) buy a beater bar and beater rack and beater weights (maybe rubber?) to keep outside for press days, or d.) buy a whole lot of 10lb plates? Thank you, being stronger has helped me a lot in ways Id be happy to share if I ever find a time to get to your seminars: ps inquiring minds would like to know if you'll ever do a seminar in the midwestern us.
A then C. If you can leave the weights outside and just carry the bar in and out, you won't have to buy a new bar. There's nothing wrong with the clean and press. Once you switch to a 4 day split, it might even be beneficial
Regarding the train-from-home fat guy, as another fat guy, the program is great and works. Find a way to get the movements in. I went to the WFAC gym for a while and will probably return, especially if the gym I use now (free perk of my job) closes (again.) It’s a great place, great people, and they’re all willing to help with advice, a spot, or a handoff.
Perfectioning the world one perfect at a time, so that however you feel inside is welcomed into the community according to guidelines. No problem! haha. PS: 37:00 minted as per suspicion
Whomever was time stamping these videos, thank you for that. It's super helpful in sorting through the silly bullshit. Please bring the time stamps back.
Hi Rip, I have started a novice linear progression but am still maintaining a semi-decent level of fitness. Will I begin to experience higher levels of obesity once I make it to the intermediate stage? I'm assuming my skin won't take on a stark pinkish hue until I make it to the advanced stage. Should I stop all conditioning and stick to a strict gravy-based diet to reach my desired level of obesity and a general unhealthy appearance more quickly? Thanks!
I agree with Rip on most the shutdown stuff but the federal gov model they presented said 100000-200000 deaths with social distancing. We just crossed 100000 so it was technically correct.
It doesn't even take an evil force to create relative 'truths'. The sheep will wander around the internet and rewrite truth for them. It is creepy as fuck.
Why oh WHY does Rip engage in subjects he knows almost nothing about? His hubris on virology and climate science undermine everything else he says. He should stick to lifting heavy things for 5 reps.
Oi, Rip you always seeming to be out of breath when talking, what is it with you big fat Americans' with breathing conditions? I think you should do some cardio so you are not puffed, for example the elliptical trainer, I also think you should do aaarrrrb (ab) training for targeted belly fat loss... oh how I would enjoy watching rip training abs and doing elliptical trainer.
Rip's philosophy of science is stuck in 1945. It's funny that someone can trot out Karl Popper with a straight face and pretend that other philosophers of science haven't dismissed him extensively over the past 75 years. Using Rip's logic, Darwin, Einstein, and pretty much any astrophysicist are not actually scientists.
Marky R., my sweet boy, I'm having an absolute conniption watching you misunderstand Bayesian statistics and the wealth of literature corroborating climate science models. Please. Keep to your pedestrian study of muscles and bones and metal, where the metric of "did you lift more than last time" is immediately interpretable to the lay person.
Does the self proclaimed genius Rip understand that models were predictive, there is no perfect prediction and almost all never took social distancing into play? Wtf does Rip think flattening the curve means? That is literally changing the model, oh pink maestro!
@@alsbos7995 hindsight is always 20/20. Again the model will appear wrong if there is a concerted social effort to reduce impact. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. If the best comes to pass would you say it was a mistake to prepare for the worst? What a load of rubbish, Mark needs to stay in his lane.
You deserve an award for efficiently stuffing an unimaginable amount of bullshit into a single comment. Literally not a single thing you're saying is factually true!

Testosterone Nation:

Lol well done 😆
Thanks so much rip. Its no problem watching this. It's perfeeeeeecttt
Thank you for labeling different sections by question. Very organized :)
I really look forward to these videos every week. Great information and always great for some laughs too.
T-shirt ideas: "Just do the program" and "Just read the book"
If your bench goes up 5lbs each week, the models conclude that we will be able to lift cars before we die of covid.

It's as if they were welcome to it.

As always Mr. Rip delivers thank you sir. May I have another.
Sowell is fascinating and has some great interviews on CZcams
Rip I’m going to come to your gym so we can wrestle
wrestle or rassle?
the_real_ch3 Hardcore, macho rasslin’
Naked oiled up wrestling, Roman Greco style with emphasis on the Greco, if you know what I mean.
22:40 I wonder why these movement experts never say anything about swimming (butterfly), yoga, gimnastics, long distance running, soccer, etc etc etc. But lifting more than 45 lbs will hurt you
Henry Hazlitt’s Economics in One Lesson is a timeless classic and where I recommend people start, along with anything by Milton Friedman.
Feds have decided that every day is Saturday or Sunday.
When theres no comments to read while watching the video
What a great birthday gift, thanks rip
That God and Adam joke is awesome 🤣🤣🤣

Not sure I get the global warming thing: If ocean temperatures aren't increasing over a long period of time, then...no global warming.
Maybe they argue the ice is melting and keeping the temp stable.
0:32 me when the boss ask me to work on Saturday

I would add The Problem of Political Authority by Michael Huemer.
Bravo Rip!
Rip please talk on ac joint pain in the shoulder from the bench press
22:06 - "Benching in Iraq with pins"

That's what the model said the 15th time they revised it.
It doesn't even take an evil force to create relative 'truths'.
The sheep will wander around the internet and rewrite truth for them.
It is creepy as fuck.
Rip for every time you end with thanks for watching? Your welcome. But really no problem waisting youtube time Chromecasting.
29:21 all the fahves....
🍻
Friday is Friday, but the government created Friday.
Rip is the kind of guy to shave his armpits so he can be more aerodynamic when he benches.
"Should elderly people, over 75, still alive, do deadlifts?" Well the dead ones certainly can't.😅😂
Razeeeeer abs
33:02 xD
But sir Rip, how will we ever know if we're doing sex correctly with all these bleeps?
Have you been drinking your gallon of milk per day during the quarantine Rip?
Isn't the press kinda loaded hip flexion?
First
maybe Rip is so pink because he eats a lot of shrimp
Why oh WHY does Rip engage in subjects he knows almost nothing about?
His hubris on virology and climate science undermine everything else he says.
He should stick to lifting heavy things for 5 reps.
Unfortunately the so called scientists that we hear from ( not all ) are wrong . Common sense has not been used .
Data "are" shit.
Oi, Rip you always seeming to be out of breath when talking, what is it with you big fat Americans' with breathing conditions?

Rip's misrepresentation of science is painful. You know the philosophy, Rip. It's your application that sucks.
Science is for soyboys
Does the self proclaimed genius Rip understand that models were predictive, there is no perfect prediction and almost all never took social distancing into play? Wtf does Rip think flattening the curve means? That is literally changing the model, oh pink maestro!
I have on idea what model Rip was reading from...but whatever it was, it was extremely wrong.
@@alsbos7995 hindsight is always 20/20. Again the model will appear wrong if there is a concerted social effort to reduce impact. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. If the best comes to pass would you say it was a mistake to prepare for the worst?
