Please keep up the good work!

[@D1GItAL_CVTS]

"Use your gear better" Ok, Jeff, got it! *_Pins the tren_*

[@jugheadsrule]

Typical Mr RPE 7 Nippard 'look for the easy way' approach. It's f ing obvious, if you need to wear a belt to lift the weight, it's too heavy for you. Stop cheating. You can either lift the weight by your own merits or you can't.

[@NeuronActivation]

@@jugheadsrule Actually no its not cheating using equipment. Because if your belted squat goes up, so will your beltless squat. Using gear will help you overload more and safer than going raw.

[@jugheadsrule]

@@NeuronActivation Err no, it's cheating yourself. If you need a belt to squat a weight, then the weight is too heavy for you, plain and simple. Most of the guys I see using belts are beat up to shit so it doesn't prevent injuries, and if you're training for a sport then using belts is asking for an injury. You don't get to use a belt on a sports field. PS: Also, you always know you're dealing with a prize fuckwit when they're doing curls with a weight belt on.

[@NeuronActivation]

@@jugheadsrule No its not cheating, Jeff is only advising using lifting gear to help build your squat, you *can* go raw if you want but using gear will always add a few poundages to your lifts and get stronger thats the whole point. There's nothing wrong with using one, also no one said it prevents injuries. All it does is increases intra abdominal pressure so that you can brace harder. Those guys you've mentioned either don't know how to brace, rely on the belt too much or have poor technique on their lifts. Jeff is a powerlifter/bodybuilder and focuses on getting stronger and or bigger, not sport specific training.

Really glad to see you talking about breathing. As a music teacher who teaches voice, I often see a lot of chest-breathing in the gym (in pre-Covid times), including when lifting heavy, and when folks are doing intense cardio like running or HIIT. It's inefficient as far as O2 and trains your core incorrectly, not to mention it seems like folks are worried about breathing making them look like they have a bigger stomach. That said, as someone who has been working really hard to increase deltoid strength, I would be very interested in blowing up my delts.

@@paulchristie3306 again, I said for hypertrophy focus (i.e for size, which seems to be ben’s main focus) 10 reps is more optimal. 3-5 is optimal for strength. Remember optimal means “best suited”. So while both 3-5 and 8-12 rep ranges could potentially build strength and size, the former builds strength quicker than the latter and the latter builds size quicker than the former.

Nice video! I really like the neuro-priming. I've noticed I shift the bar from low in the bottom position to high in the top position by rolling the bar on my back. Just feels better that way. For serious lifters who are limited by ankle mobility, seeing a physical therapist can also help. Ankle mobility can come from joint mechanics, not just muscular tightness. PTs can do thrust mobilizations, non-thrust mobilizations and mobilizations with movement to improve that squat depth without having to use a heel riser.

Hey Jeff, I'm a 167lb 5'11 guy who works out and eats alot with a BF% of roughly 10.6-11%. My goal is to be 180lbs with about 13%-15% BF. Could you do a video on how height, weight, and age reflect on strength/hypertrophy gains, and how to gain some bodyfat while not being unhealthy about it. The reason I ask for the first is because I recently hit 400lbs on my deadlift, and 335lbs on my squat. But looking at the world records and how I compare to others my weight, they don't distinguish height. A 167lb man who is 5'4 would obviously be much stronger than me depending on what he can lift, but where I am taller, I'm limited to how much weight I can lift compared to people with shorter limbs. Am I correct in this assumption? Or will I eventually be able to lift as much as elite members in my weight class? I keep hearing fitness people say things like, "progressive overload has a cap. You'll never be a ronnie coleman, unless you have the right genes." I don't understand what the cap is? Is there an age where you can stop growing muscle? Does the hypertrophy limit coincide with the strength limit? If so, what is my limit, or how do I find out? Being a skinny guy is hard when I want to be able to compete with other powerlifters. Am I able to bulk up to become what people consider a "mesomorph" size? Sorry for all the questions, but it's a question I've never found a straight answer to.

[@roganleach1384]

Do you have any recommendations for improving ankle mobility? I can’t seem to get a good depth into my squat and I feel like it’s holding me back. It also effects my balance under the bar and I have to compensate by using my back (which is not what I want to be doing)

Do you have any tips for switching from highbar to lowbar? I can do 455 highbar but I struggle with 225 lowbar it just feels so awkward

[@josephmoore8864]

Lowbar your queue is sit back first. Highbar you bend at knees and hips at the same time. For lowbar I found using one of those step systems up 3-4 blocks helped me train the feel properly. You have to sit back just like you are going to use the toilet . You might already know that.

[@Jmack7861]

What feels awkward about it? If it’s bar placement just slowly over a training cycle move the bar down. Bar placement isn’t black and white. Try a mid bar placement first. If it’s the body mechanics then just make sure you break at the hips first and mentally think of it as a high bar and you’ll prevent that good morning shit from happening. I’ve also found that flaring feet out more on low bar helps but NOT a wider stance

Imagine training legs

[@LegitHawaiian95]

Wednesday is pretty much international leg day

[@abrilcb5749]

I just started the women’s specialization program, I’m so exited about the results!

[@qasimshah2313]

Everytime I squat, my glutes die when I want to hit my quads

[@TRAILERHUNTER001]

Mine too I feel it 10x more in my glutes than my quads

[@Dwadefan32]

Fastest way to improve squat, train it until you bulge two discs. (Highly sarcastic, speaking from personal experience)

[@nunninkav]

Most people should never squat more than 405. You can still get strong with repping that weight. You get towards 500 lbs, you better have a large frame or you risk those ruptured discs and joint damage.

[@Dr_Footbrake]

@@nunninkav putting an arbitrary limit on what people can or cannot squat seems pretty stupid, particularly as there are 130lb women squatting > 400lb

[@nunninkav]

@@Dr_Footbrake degenerative disc disease and hip replacements seem pretty stupid to me. Best to heed my advice if you want to keep your own body parts.

[@Dr_Footbrake]

@@nunninkav I'm 180lb on a good day and have had 500lb on my back more weeks than not for the past decade and had 1 back issue ~6 years ago and never any issues with my hips. I think I'm going to be ok. In addition to that people who have never squatted in their life have DDD and hip replacements so I'm not sure how you can attribute a causal link between the two. (In addition pre-morbid level of function has a large bearing on prognosis following joint replacement surgery so you're better off being strong and broken than weak and broken)

Jeff, this may be your most helpful video yet. Can't wait to fix my squat and start your powerbuilding program next week!
