    Just hit a pr 405 squat today

    @kauerpc Před 6 lety +19

    Brian, just wanted to say this: I watch all your videos since a long time and learn to admire you and your strenght in all aspects. That said, yesterday I did my first Strongman class and now I admire you even more. Strongman is extremely fun AND hard, but fun! But hard! I couldnt believe how hard it was when I tried to pick up a atlas stone from the ground and shoulder it, even though I have watched you do and teach that dozens of times. Cheers!

    I don't know about you guys, but i think Uncle Nic's walkout looked perfect.

      CatlikeCrab and unless I am mistaken, I hear the close of “Dream on” playing in the background. That only made it better...

    Yes shirt looks good

  • @GabrielMartinsFitness
    @GabrielMartinsFitness Před 6 lety +5

    The pulling the bar to you plus your bracing trips completely changed how I feel during the squat! And by that indeed way stronger

    Not sure why I enjoy your videos so much, but I do. I am 6ft 135lbs never workout, but I can't stop watching your vids. Keep it up!

  • @alyoshazeifman4657
    @alyoshazeifman4657 Před 5 lety +1

    I've watched ALOT of YT squat videos and these are some of the best tips for squat setup. Can't wait to get under the bar and put them to practice. Thanks.

    I wish I had 1/2 of Brian’s enthusiasm and I am fairly enthusiastic! Great content.

  • @MrMhtmht
    @MrMhtmht Před 6 lety +3

    I always squatted narrow grip and got bad wrist pain from it. Then I watched some very good Squatters like Misha Koklyaev, who squat with the hands at the plates and kind of squeeze the lats more. This worked for me as well.

  • @skippthemag2858
    @skippthemag2858 Před 5 lety

    don't know why i am addicted to watching squat videos! i just started and working with 135 getting used to the movements, mobility and form etc. I love it, want to start slow, safely and correctly. Much love to Brian and Alan Thrall. Good info

  • @HammerPowered
    @HammerPowered Před 6 lety

    Couple things:
    I dig the dark blue shirts...
    Uncle Nic has the best walkout ever.
    And the squat setup tips are really useful. You definitely nailed a couple of my errors here.

    Always lift a weight you can manage, I've seen some real bad mistakes and injuries when people go heavy to soon without building strength.

    You always present very good technical information, but in a very entertaining way.

  • @joshjohnston7388
    @joshjohnston7388 Před 6 lety

    The one tip you gave that changed my squat significantly was leaning into the bar and pushing against it in the rack so it sits FIRM in the slot. Then the "wrap the bar" cue.

  • @sapper3082
    @sapper3082 Před 6 lety

    Dam...I have been lifting for years and never heard of squeezing the bar during a squat...I see how this will increase power. Thank you!

    Cool shirt! Thx for the video!!

  • @yblignomis
    @yblignomis Před 4 lety

    Checklist:
    Grip width, creep closer every set and squeeze the bar
    Pull the bar through your chest (melded to your body)
    Breathe and brace before bar leaves rack.
    Stand up explosively and stand solidly until weights settle.
    Engage glutes (flex butt) involve posterior chain to lock in solid.

    Also, just wanted to take a minute to say how much you’ve motivated my training. Two months ago I my max squat was 135# (I know, go cry for me lol). But today I hit a 190# PR and I only weigh 145. Thanks for the motivation and great content! Keep it comin!

  • @a.schnitzer9325
    @a.schnitzer9325 Před 6 lety

    That was great!!!! Even though we usually know these things but it's so helpful to hear and see them time and again. Also, great tap dance😂

  • @offtheclockuk
    @offtheclockuk Před 6 lety

    Perfect timing! I'm going to leave this video playing while I sleep so when i wake at 5 am to head to the gym my mind will be full of your voice reminding me to hit all the cues haha 👌

    • @offtheclockuk
      @offtheclockuk Před 6 lety

      Also, yeah I like the blue shirt, but I'm saving for my first power lifting belt and shoes so I don't have the free cash yet, so they will be sold out before I make it lol

  • @nevecieco2688
    @nevecieco2688 Před 6 lety

    I am glad you made this. I have always wondered why so many people I have seen squat will spend forever getting their body into the exact perfect position while the bar is on the rack. They screw their feet into the ground and get their back in the perfect position. They do the two inch squat to get the bar off the pins and walk back quickly. And then however their body ends up at the last step, they start squatting. They have one knee all the way out to the side, the other foot is standing on a plate someone left out. The bar is at a 45 degree angle on their back. I have always taken a couple of seconds after the walkout to gather myself and make sure I am all lined up. Looks like I am not the weird one, or no weirder than you anyway.

  • @yootoober49
    @yootoober49 Před 6 lety +5

    42 here. Just started lifting again after like 6 years. Also went keto and have lost 40lbs. Bought some farmers carry handles and love it. But I have no idea how often to do it or how far or how heavy to go. Did 120lbs in each hand for 3 sets of about 15 yards. I want to do it like every day! But I know that's probably too much. Oh also I have no idea why, but I ordered a 20" beach ball to paper mache. What is wrong with me.

    • @brentbaranoski615
      @brentbaranoski615 Před 6 lety

      yootoober49 grip is worked by slow twitch muscles so doing it every day is fine

    • @dooby1445
      @dooby1445 Před 6 lety

      Brent Baranoski farmers carry isn’t just grip and grip shouldn’t be the only thing behind that decision

  • @crucifixgym
    @crucifixgym Před 6 lety +8

    So much info in this video, once again serious next level advice.

  • @eb4256
    @eb4256 Před 5 lety +1

    I understand the apparent need to flex your glutes, but isn’t there then a chance that you’re rounding your lower lumber back when you flex your glutes? The way Brian shows flexing his butt in this video, appears to be a pelvic tuck under. But as soon as one starts the squat, you can’t maintain that tucked pelvis/flexed glutes position. Otherwise, you’ll round your lower back- which is generally the way most over-zealous guys get injured.

    • @Dr_Bille
      @Dr_Bille Před 5 lety +1

      I didn't get that at all either. You're supposed to lean forward during a low bar squat

  • @brendanspinney1176
    @brendanspinney1176 Před 6 lety

    Great video!!! Awesome knowledge squatting is my favourite exercise! When I get fatigued and squatting heavy my form varies slightly but with these helpful tips I believe I can rectify the situation thanks heaps 😊

  • @1985Crystal
    @1985Crystal Před 6 lety

    Ill buy it bro. Thanks I have a terrible bad habbit of walking it out fast thanks for the reminder. I think in my head the faster i drop in the more power i will save and have to finish the rep but you totally right when the weights get heavyier the costs are highter.

    I've heard you preach about the SSB squats and opted out on it, and now that I've been working my mobility following a shoulder surgery (had a massive bone spur on the backside of my clavicle and had to be cut out), I really wish I would've gotten it. I'm well ahead my projected recovery time but still not 100% yet. I'm dying without being able to do dips, heavy bench, OHP and squats.
