16 Tips For The Best Training Year Ever (2024)

[@vladibarraza]

2 x BW in deadlift and 1.5 x BW in the squat are my goals for this year ✊

[@LatimusChadimus]

Get some! Every time I get close to two times body weight squat I end up getting a little bit heavier haha so I'm going to keep chasing although I'm a lot closer with the bar in my elbows. Make it make sense 😭😭

[@TheMortalKombatent]

@@LatimusChadimus your stronger squatting the right way, nothing to be upset over

[@RebuildingSaad]

Ayyy same bro! Good luck to us. 🤝

[@isaakvanwegen2784]

A basic 3x5 lp should get u there!

[@Swisskies]

"Stop looking 6 weeks ahead in the program and thinking 'Oh I can't do that session'" I see you've been receiving my daily emails

[@domrick783]

Goals for this year is to get stronger and fill out the -93kg class as lean as I can. Current numbers -> Goals: SQ: 220kg -> 250kg BP: 150kg -> 165kg DL: 240kg -> 270kg BW: 90kg -> 93kg I know probably unrealistic, but I’m too motivated this year, so will see how it goes. Going to update this every 3 months if possible (if I remember).

I‘m here for No5. Thanks for the podcast 👌

[@rkbells4513]

Thinking like an athlete is one thing I consistently lose track of over time. Always consistent. Always working hard. Always holding myself slightly back because of poor weekly decisions regarding diet and alcohol. Let's be better. 🙌

These are the best tips for life! Not only for training.

[@Davis.smith.weightlifting]

2023 was the year I PR’d every lift except my back squat. First three days of January I PR’d my double and triple in the BS and today I’m going for a single, which I haven’t PR’d in 5 years. All I did was train what I wanted, and when I lost interest I pushed to PR something else. Eventually as all of these lifts got higher, so did my snatch and clean and jerk. My sessions are 45 minutes to an hour, I don’t do long sessions with 5x5 anymore, generally only a top set in the snatch and clean and jerk, and don’t really pull anything heavier than my lifts. It’s fun, and feels like a hobby again. Making more progress and having more fun is a win on all sides for me. Can’t wait to see what I can snatch now that I’ve added 20 kilos to my back squat.

[@GON.Lifting]

Guys! "have realistic goals" is what actually motivated me to follow real numbers and not get beat up by not managing to hit new PRs. You inspired me to make my own channel, where I document my progress, as a normal person. Thank you for inspiring content and for sharing your experience 🙏

[@duncan7961]

This is a really good list

[@ns2304]

Awesome vid to kick off the year for fitness

[@lalampen]

So many good nuggets in here. Thank you!!

[@danoontjeh123]

Starting my updated RTA next week, not sure about my goals for this year though, but i'll come up with a goal soon

[@jonathanferrari425]

Manifesting that 2.85 x BW back squat and 3.14 x BW deadlift this year! Consistency and patience is going to be key. As always good video coaches.

[@rsanghi24]

My goal for the year, i think realistic? 70kg snatch and 100kg clean and jerk. I'm 70kg, only started weightlifting 4 months ago, can do 50kg power snatch, haven't tried maxing out my clean and jerking, but did it till 70kg.

[@carpetgymolylifting]

As a 16 year old self taught I did a 72kg snatch first year and a 90kg clean and jerk first year...at around 80kg bodyweight...definitely possible if you can figure out everything within a good time...my second year I got a 85kg snatch and 102kg clean and jerk and for my third year I'm wanting a 115kg snatch and 137kg clean and jerk...kinda extreme but I don't care it's possible lol

[@Gusativo]

Seems a bit ambitious, putting 20 and 30kg on your snatch and C&J in a year, respectively, is no joke. I guess it depends on your age/sex/nutrition/programming/mobility/dedication... If everything is favourable, maybe it can be realistic. Based on what the average joe achieves, probably not though.

[@paulsohns3930]

Take time and learn the lifts properly. You might win a battle and lose a war.

[@LeeJCander]

Biggest lesson learned from the year just gone is not being scared to take a day off or make a workout easier if I’m sore but want to do it. I do BJJ twice a week. Muay Thai twice a week and reduced my gym time from 3-4 to twice a week. Both full body sessions doing a squat, a hinge a press and a pull. Usually swap 2 times a week but lately I’ve been swapping one squat for more assistance moves like a lunge or split squat.

[@ATHLETE.X]

I posted about #1 recently. Really is a crucial aspect especially for non-elites. Enjoyment -> long term consistency -> more gains

[@3kage]

great advices in video, I needed to hear some of the points

[@HammerShock23]

Great video to kick off 2024, but only useful if you FOLLOW THE ADVICE. For me, writing down the applicable tips and determining the timeframe is the best way to ensure follow through. Some goals are long term (body composition, having fun) while others are monthly or daily, so finding a way to reinforce changes in your training is the best way toward progress.

[@portoalex]

I've just came back to training weightlifting, been away from the sport for the past 4 years but been on and off training hypertrophy and sometimes a little bit of powerlifting, my goal is to go back to the decent technique I had before stopping and actually enjoy weightlifting as opposed to pressuring myself to achieve results when I was competing.

[@jingsndthings]

14:15 Traing is very important

[@LatimusChadimus]

Goals without plans of steps are merely dreams so his number three is spot on

[@LeeJCander]

My goal this year is to maintain strength but switch towards a higher bar squat whilst developing more explosive/faster movements and hopefully dropping 5kg.

[@RuwinduGunatilake]

I wanna feel something by the end of this year.

[@milanojudo]

110% Bodyweight Behind The Neck Press is one of mine.....

[@LucasDimoveo]

#8 defined my 20s. I started parkour late in life at 19, sucked, and stuck with it way too long. I should have called it at 23 and gone to therapy instead of avoiding life with sport

[@sakaue]

My sports related new years resolution is to get my shit together and get back on track after a scattered, distracted, and miserable 2023 where I made no progress despite being a teenager with only 2-3 years of experience.

[@matthewturner9184]

My traing is importants

[@slothpatronus2704]

I want that magic 800kg powerlifting total this year. Currently at 745.

[@raull.8320]

From your given list: 1) enjoy training and use your brain 2) be honest with my goals and life in general [3) focus on school and education] Time to be a better overall human.

[@jimmylaze]

my goals for this year is to increase my squat and deadlift by 150% and get a body like bruce lee

[@turbobaner7235]

I have to say it out loud because it is the truth! Manta Ray squat is the best squat variation ever

[@travorich]

I usually run ~10km once every week around zone 3-4, is that enough for a cardio?

[@amcarthur5003]

Nice graphics lads, fair few spelling errors though btw

[@ryantrotter9561]

ran out of the letter “I” 😂 compostion, traing, relgion, effcient

[@adamyoung9283]

To the fridge turning himself into a mini fridge

[@hayden2307]

lets goooo

[@LatimusChadimus]

💪💪

[@bowmanj603]

Good stuff guys! I particularly love the 'stop being a bitch' tip. I tell people that all the time lol. Also, USA has better comedians sorry.

[@MrAmadeus1998]

If you’ve just had a newborn child tell your partner they need to carry the load because you’re doing Bulgarian.

[@Eric-hi5py]

My job is quite possibly the worst thing for my training. I think I'm gonna quit despite making a lot less money.
