[@WPXBMX997]

So happy to see you back on KZbin John!

[@Xecoda]

Appreciate you taking the time to take care of you! ❤ A reminder that as much as we love your content, we'd always rather you feel comfortable and happy while not posting than posting but feeling uncomfortable. Thank you!

[@THE_ORGINAL_SILVERBACK]

John my Powerlifting advice to you. Keep doing what you're doing, you're a beast!

[@maxgamesst1]

We need the full OSG comp recap! 6th is crazy impressive

[@Couldhavebeensomeone]

Right? No recap is bullshit.

Especially with the amount of competitors and how strongman is scored

[@RagnarBlackmane-q8m]

Nice to have you back on youtube, it was interesting to see you with Mitch!

[@critical-slayer]

Great to have you posting back on youtube! Look after yourself and take a good break from training and heel up, we need you healthy!

[@Danny-h4g]

Phenomenal finish at OSG I do believe if you gave it another year you do great things but why when your already one of the Greats in powerlifting 💪🏼

[@jacobsimon7177]

Saw you at powerhouse today, looking forward to your next powerlifting meet video

[@quinhahnarmstrong4627]

Breakdown osg for us! Edit:I watched the video 😅 welcome back 🎉

[@MHB30]

I will, just waiting for the edited videos of my events

[@Dave_Gunderson]

I bought a shirt like the one John has in the first deadlift video only to find out that because I am not nearly as jacked as John I look like shit in it 😂

Good to see you back. What are your thoughts on Colton Engelbrecht? Do you think he'll take the Total WR?

Switching back to the Texas bar for deadlifts?

[@loungeroomlifting2223]

We wanna see you go all out, are you considering "warriors" meet in Aus? There's a lot of hype around you coming down to Aus and putting on a show!

[@MHB30]

I’m not sure what I want to do after the Clash. Aus is one option, but I really want to do one more meet at 90kgs

[@loungeroomlifting2223]

​@MHB30 could be the greatest -110 podium of all time! 3x 1k+ totals would be diabolical.

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

Great job at the OSG! If you were to focus 1 year on strongman you'd be winning many shows. Why don't you try hookgrip for the deadlift? It's painful in the beginning, but people do lift heavy deadlifts with it. And it keeps the biceps safe and provides better movement symmetry.

[@MHB30]

I've never really had a reason to switch from mixed grip. I also feel I'm able to get my upper back tighter with mixed grip

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

@MHB30 Right, you know you, I guess. I hate to do asymmetrical movements... 😂

[@Kdog-tw2on]

Let’s goo 🎉

[@mr.yan1238]

Sup john, how do you think of using wrist straps while deadlift session. Cause i heard ppl said using straps will reduce ur explosive force.

[@MHB30]

Deadlift isn't really a movement you should try and be that explosive with. You really want to build tension in the bar and come off the ground smooth. From there, you can start to accelerate through the movement.

[@mr.yan1238]

@@MHB30 Learn that. Always look up on you ma idol.

Hey buddy I just recently hit 315 @ 15 @ 150 body weight on the bench. Do I have a place for competing? And how Would I

[@shlokgurudatta8466]

At that age and bodyweight you need 550 minimum before being eligible to enter a local meet

[@cwa34_]

@ 550 total or bench?

[@shlokgurudatta8466]

@@cwa34_ bench ofcourse bro. 550 total is required to be eligible to compete as a female in the under 13 category

@@cwa34_that’s a joke. you’re plenty strong

[@justanotherperson1926]

Do you you take peptides such as bpc-157? The video cut around that point, just wondering if they make a significant difference in recovery and healing.

[@MHB30]

Yea, I use tb500 and bpc157

[@duanefryberger2007]

If you compete in knee wrap category, will your sleeve squat count as raw! I hope if you set some type of record, it counts as a total raw. Decades ago, when I was younger, I was in an organization that raw was the use of wraps. I knew someone squatted totally raw, but it didn't matter, it was the same, wraps or not. I hope in the record books your squat is consider raw, not thrown into the wrap category. I know that Ed Coan raw bench of 545lbs. and his raw 901lbs. deadlift was counted in the all-time single ply. division and never recognized in the raw division.

[@joemama226]

His squats in sleeves are counted as raw, not "raw with wraps"

[@MHB30]

Potentially, I want one more meet at 90kgs, and want it to be deadlift bar 24hr weigh in, to really maximize my performance. Once I'm past that, I'll be more open to doing stuff like Big Dogs and ABS meets.
