Joe Rogan Experience

Pavel Tsatsouline, is the Chairman of StrongFirst, Inc., a fitness instructor who has introduced SPETSNAZ training techniques from the former Soviet Union to US Navy SEALs, Marines and Army Special Forces, and shortly thereafter to the American public.

@@jbbeach710 no prob. I did for myself considering there's so much rambling, it's hard to follow along, but if it helps others great! It really shows the Soviets were 60 years ahead off the West, and shows all that indoctrination we received growing up about how scientifically backwards they were was just that, state doctrine, and more to the point, outright propaganda on the part of the West. It also shows how today's "scientifically informed" coaches are still getting it all wrong, what with their @2 and @3 RIR work set recommendations. And there recently was a study reviewed in MASS suggesting as much. They're mostly all shit sheisters! The blind leading the blind.

It's a good quote but slightly incorrect to me. Some people honestly find school easier than others and have a more fun time with school-life and learning in general. Those same people in many ways couldn't last a day when put in a position to deal with very difficult physical pressures like rigorous exercise and a lack of sleep etc. When you add in the extended length of time you have to deal with the physical pressures like with certain jobs in the military it thins the herd even more.

[@Howitchewstofeel5gum]

"You have to be tough when it's time, in the gym you have to do the plan" Slow and steady wins the race, everytime. I knew that this one-more-rep mentality of gym bros and trainers was somehow bullshit, I just never had the expertise to back that intuition up with facts. Great podcast.

[@Howitchewstofeel5gum]

@Cameron Gregoire Adding reps because you're too comfortable with the weight is not what they're talking about with "one more rep mentality". They're talking about always pushing yourself to squeeze out additional reps when you're already at your limit, which is harmful, but gets endorsed by a lot of personal trainers.

[@joedattoli]

My grand father always said this......he died in a fire.....

[@themanwithnoname9578]

What I personally do is mix David goggins and this dude....Say like I do 3-10 rep sets with lot of active rest(walking around) building up to total rep say like 100

[@grapograc]

One of the best episodes ever, this man is a legend. I'm blown away by his wealth of information.

[@brianroman4114]

Too bad his advice on training isn't how any world champion trains. His advice is fine for your average Joe who just wants minimal gains with no risk of injury. All the world champions on joes podcast have rejected this guys entire training philosophy. This anti "one more rep" idea is ludicrous

[@grapograc]

​@@brianroman4114 Yea honestly I get that feel from hearing the whole interview as well. He is definitely a insane wealth of knowledge and incredible recall of the history of training methodologies, but I I must say that I'm not sure I fully buy his methodology. I've done both Kettlebells pretty extensively as well as powerlifting which is what I currently do. I would love to see some commentary of his methods from some champions. He makes a lot of sense and everything seems to be backed up by studies and results, according to him, but I would love to hear the other side. I've never seen any other successful lifter recommend stopping that many reps from max. However most people incorrectly estimate stopping 3 reps before max and actually stop closer to 5-6 reps before max.
