INTENSE STRONGMAN LEG DAY WITH BOBBY THOMPSON

[@Doubledexter]

Hell yeah I love Bobby Thompsons mindset. He's definitely another favorite strongman of mine. Static monster. Glad to see him train with Brian :))

It’s the beard for me

[@richsmith295]

Cool

[@deanpeterson1006]

Brian is the best thing to ever happen to Strongman!

[@presqueisle69]

100%

[@oceanbanana4341]

He is called the evolution after all

[@calebtaylor1225]

Dude todays legs and i didnt want to do it. Now i have to.

[@coryknight5330]

Never skip leg day

[@kyle9003]

you bros bring a tear to my eye

[@nateramsey1877]

Lol me too 😂

[@mikebb1000]

If you were doing legs right you would look forward to them. Start really really trying hard and focus before you know it you will see size and strength and then you will look forward to doing legs. Trust me I know.

[@bumndrass]

[@Nishinga.]

Loving the new gym! Love Bobby’s energy, he’s seem like such a down to earth dude just like Brian

[@dfg12382]

Bobby is just a super friendly soul. Good to see you two move some weights together.

[@De-dwarf.]

Bobby Thompson top 😂

[@ateamoffroad1179]

That's awesome Brian. It's even more amazing how you help others improve and share your knowledge to the people you compete with

[@johnackerley699]

Plates facing in always! Bobby is a great guy. It’s kind of amazing that most if not all high level strongmen are nice guys.

[@Rocker3829]

4:46 "you know Brian, I am explosive, compact, and travel size" Just gonna add this quote to my list real quick. Will have to use that one.

[@toebarsrealm3773]

It was awesome to see you with Bobby. Really nice to get to know him more. Really looking forward to attending my second Shaw Classic to watch you both compete. Best wishes to you both and the rest of the competitors! 💪💪

[@Extrahello]

I remember watching Bobby as an Amateur at Arnold’s it’s crazy what he’s transformed into

[@joestabile2454]

Great video. I've been training for almost 50 years and I've always put the numbers facing in...that's just the way I was taught by the older guys when I started.... LOL

[@dantethunderstone2118]

When you deadlift you go numbers out…why change it just for leg press

[@kareemsalem6487]

I always knew Bobby is a nice man, but he's so chill and giving alot of down to earth vibes

[@nathanhammond9359]

Would love to see you come over to New Zealand. Huge fan

[@chris185999]

the best and still the most humble!!!

[@energyflowswhereattentiongoes]

you guys rock! great stuff. you gotta come back for more Bobby!

[@smbrumbaugh]

I think Alan Thrall explained my thinking on this, too, in one of his Q&A. It's easier to grab the plate with number-side in, so that's how I load it.

[@e.c.9468]

That leg press is gonna be insane !!

[@JarettHerder]

So glad there will be a live stream! Really hated not being able to watch WSM as it was happening but I understand why they did it. Will for sure be watching. Some year Ill make it over there or maybe you could just host it here in Minnesota by me :)

[@JarettHerder]

@Master Marc Subliminals from my understanding was the contracted companies wanted time to make it more condensed to appeal to newer fans of strongman. Honestly I would love both a live stream and the director cut with the added commentary. They don’t want ppl that watch the livestream to buy buy the show when they do all the editing. But I don’t think they would lose viewers

[@ralphschannel6650]

I'm glad too! I was hoping to go in person, but I have last minute major car repairs

[@prince_9931]

it's not viewers they're worried about. The network will not pay for it if it's live streamed and they'll lose tens of millions of dollars

[@JarettHerder]

@@prince_9931 yeah they don’t want people to watch the live stream and not their other program. But I want both!

[@frankmichetti5780]

loved this duo! Plates facing IN is the only way to do it.

[@markkerr9358]

Plates Turned In . They Fit Smoother. You’re Right Brian

Bobby is a man who commands respect.

[@gorllan4782]

Great Video! Love seeing Brian and Bobby training together! Both are great strongmen!

[@lynnpendergrassjr4223]

Nice video! And definitely plates go numbers in

[@The_Riggs_Rage]

Fan of Thompson for sure. Awesome to see you training together.

[@dustinhoward9848]

Plate facing in all day Brian!!

[@anakinluke100]

I have always been on the fence about Bobby, super strong ofc but I always felt some super serious, no bs, hard individual from his quiet nature lol. Man, he changed my mind today haha

[@MattManProductions]

Honestly, it really doesn't matter what side the plate faces. It doesn't change the weight or anything, how ever. The plate facing in does allow you to grab the rim of the plate with your finger tips and your palms and thumb braces the back of the plate, so if you want to make it harder for yourself then place them having out.

[@jimmiller2270]

Big fan of Bobby. Glad to see him on the channel.

[@sethschouten3145]

Just saw you were going speak at the central strength expo in Columbia next week! Super excited and hope I get to attend! I’m just hoping and praying I see you randomly at the YMCA in Ashland session 😂😂

Bot alert

[@levywayne282]

Brian Shaw if you're reading this know that Am counting on you to get your 5th title, you are such an inspiration ,love what you do and what you've accomplished so far

[@JasonParker_114]

Shoulda called this Brians half rep leg day.

[@prestonshirley9864]

In powerlifting the first plate goes facing in and all other plate facing out.

[@alexanderconstantini6447]

YES I NEEDED THIS MOTIVATION

[@jaysonescoe5799]

Great stuff. Now that was some just get after kind of banter!!! Awesome as Always!!

[@thesupportingcast6972]

Definitely buying the LIVE! Great line up of athletes 👏

[@miss_rosie25]

I’ve already been to the gym today, but Brian always makes me want to right back to the gym.

[@rockettt7]

Yeah Bobby Thompson! Cerberus Strength in the house! Keep the videos coming Brian!

[@Mounty621]

I’ve been loading numbers out for 40 years. Great session. Now I want a yoke for my gym!

[@Mattyjk03]

Love your videos Brian and this one is fab and funny with Bobby. Am sure it doesn't matter but plates facing out for me

[@allanh5618]

I face the plates with numbers 'in' because they are easier to grip/load/unload that way. I mostly use my fingers to grip a plate lip. I suppose if you are accustomed to using your thumb to hook the lip, then facing numbers out would make sense.

[@dlbraly]

Great video, Thanks!

[@MarkusPro]

Is great to see U and bobby training in that way ...best regards

[@presqueisle69]

Plates facing out ? Who's with me .

[@buck1978]

Awesome video can’t wait for he Shaw classic Still crazy how normal Brian makes other monsters look lol

[@tonyjackson4099]

In gyms, and "normal" lifting, plates always go with writing facing in. Powerlifters always put the first plate facing in and all others after with writing facing out.

[@chadspivey9620]

[@williammcgarity8774]

First plate facing in so the lifter can verify the correct weight, the rest face out so the judges can verify the weight. That is the correct way.

[@MrBasicc]

This never makes sense to me, if they can verify the plates in the middle are the correct weight, then why do they need to see the inside plate and its numbers?

[@dude3278]

@@MrBasicc It's not because of that. It's so the TV can see the plates on the inside and outside. Thats legit it

Hi Brian 👋🏻👋🏻

[@spiveyandstones]

Brian making fun of someone who is taller than 90% of the population for being short is something only someone 6’8” can do

[@IraDuncan]

My current gym has no plates with olympic plates like Brian mentioned. When I trained at a gym with them, however, I'd usually put numbers facing in.

[@shaynebaca]

holy crap!! I gotta have or be able to use that squat machine!!! Unreal!!

Builds an enormous gym, and it's already completely full. This time next year- "Hey guys! Welcome to the tour of my next new home gym! Over 3x bigger than that last tiny place!"

[@michaels.2331]

Hoping for Bobby to stay injury free for Shaw Classic so he can show his true capabilities.

[@georgedavidov5250]

I do it IPF style with my kilo plates. Facing in for the first plate and facing out for the rest. So you can see the KG’s from every angle lol.

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

Bobbie is a absolute savage. I was upset when he went against you in stones because no one in that lineup other than Tom maybe can challenge you in a stoneoff. Poor guy always gets the group of death.

[@tylerhebert8237]

I put the flat side of the plates together so they all go back to back and lip to lip. Love seeing two professionals getting after it.

[@smuir6104]

I was taught facing in, but like facing out. It is more efficient when adding or removing them, but only on the leg sled, otherwise they make too much noise

[@tonycordeiro31]

Proper way is plate facing in, so when removing the it your four fingers get under the end brim of plate to have more of a grip when removing. If you have the plate facing numbers out, you will be using your thumb to hold the brunt of the weight when holding the plate.

[@teepressifer]

the proper powerlifting way by the rules is first plate in. all other plates facing out.

[@ZenithAngel]

Log pressing with Bobby next 🙏

[@michaelwellman8752]

My first plate always goes on facing out and then the rest of them face in to cut down on wind resistance

[@shashishekharsingh4652]

Try working out in a vacuum chamber for even better results.

[@wildes5447]

Numbers facing in! ALWAYS!! The lip on the plate provides a better, safer, more natural grip for handling the plate.

[@joekj4726]

Now that is a top notch plug at the start

[@jackme-off6690]

PLATES OUT!

[@Hankola]

11:34 I get why numbers in because of the grip of the plate, but some gyms don't have the grip. Personally, numbers out if there's no grip.
