[@roscoegordo656]

Man I really needed to hear this today. Trust the process.

[@jakeizlove]

Thanks! Can you please do a series targeted towards those who do weightlifting for health and overall fitness/well-being?

[@sabertoothwallaby2937]

Why would you do WL for health?

[@jakeizlove]

@@sabertoothwallaby2937 I believe mental and physical health cannot be separated,. Personally: Everything's better when working out regularly. Life stresses are also less taxing when physically fit. WL improves My ability to use more strength (across a greater range of motion) than PL alone.. Squats and deadlifts, are a part of programming, but I use OL variations help 'tie' upper and lower body together.. Of course , YMMV as this is only the opinion of one internet dumbass.. :)

[@CCSABCD]

@@sabertoothwallaby2937 why not, if you like something do it.

[@ytano5782]

Basically you can train like a competitive athlete. But you are free in your cycles, because you don‘t train from competition to competition. You are also more free to do hypertrophy, peak strength and specific movements in parallel.

Max aita is gold

Hey JST. Yet another great video. I was wondering, how would you tackle this process with an athlete who already has a good athletic and strength foundation? When I read or watch information pertaining to developing a weightlifter, it always seems to come at this issue as if the athlete has no, or very little of a strength background. For example, if an athlete squats 240 at 89, should we even really try to maintain that strength? Or maybe focus purely on technical attributes until he gets the classical lifts down pack? Again, good vid!

You guys should do a discussion of this topic for all sports or fitness activities

[@sabertoothwallaby2937]

Is this not extrapolated linear periodization? Anyone have thoughts on block periodization?

[@swilda123]

please put caption in your video

On Janice's bar, what is on the left side towards the collar? Some form of bar transducer?

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

It’s a transmogrifier.

[@agsfsafasfsa6699]

YYYYYEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!

[@ClayHales]

What kind of weight would you say a 6 foot lifter should lift at?

[@hookoffthejab1]

That's completely subjective. There's many factors that determine how strong you "should" be. Like weight, athletic background, body structure, etc, and they all don't really matter. A good way to know how strong you want to be is to compare the amount of weight you can lift relative to your body weight. If you can deadlift over 3x your body weight then you're very strong, but again this is subjective. If you want to be as strong as possible don't focus on how strong you should be, just try to get stronger.

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

92kg

Why is this video unlisted?

[@xy9439]

How did you get to see it???

[@jackbyrnes9557]

It was in a playlist.

[@kubarydz8001]

What would be the age considered as too old to start weightlifting? Is there some magic number when people shouldn't even bother?

[@gmotwmirl]

If you wanna go to the top, puberty is imperative. Hip structure development and general adaptation just has to precede adult fine tuning of gross strength accumulated In those years. Just for fun you can start wherever.

[@The1juhi]

For international competing: before puberty. For national competing: before late 20's depending on nationality and sports background. For fun, regional competitions or Masters: whenever!

[@mattias9411]

Good info but the lecture style lacks examples. The info isn't exactly specific, more so vaguely talking about contexts in which each phase is applied. Just my opinion though!

[@aspirationathletics9202]

Mattias agreed

[@flabio7074]

Cute girls 😉

[@jakeizlove]

Very fit shape.

[@disagio9517]

Y'all on the other hand aren't cute
