660lb Squat For Reps To Wrap Up The Block

[@bigPP3000]

Thanks for the great content as always. No fluff, just pure domination of the weights.

Hi John, do you still work as a chemist? How difficult was it for you to balance your degree and powerlifting? -Aspiring powerlifter and Biochemistry student

[@MHB30]

Not really any more. I do some contract work for the company I used to work for, but it doesn't really involve chemistry anymore. I may do a video in the future about it. It was definitely tough to balance the two, during my later years of college. Just work your deloads around busier weeks.

Lookin' good man!

There not going down far enough 💯🚫🧢

John, you’ve said you like dips but they jack up your shoulders. Have you ever thought about working on shoulder mobility and trying Streetlifting? Maybe going for WR’s? It’s weighted pull-up + dip + squat All the best guys are around your bodyweight but you’re consistently much stronger on squat and bench

[@MHB30]

I think if I was younger I would be more interested in it. I used to be really into pull-ups and could do close to 60 in middle school. Now, I'd be lucky to get 20 lol.

[@daxisperry7644]

@@MHB30good GOD, 60? That’s insane.

[@ChitWhitly]

Watching this after failing my 320 pr attempt (bench), humbling

[@MHB30]

320 was once my PR on bench too.

[@The_Superpack]

Do agree with going 90 or 135 for a proper squat?

[@ripp9370]

Hey John, i noticed you were using the roller a bit on your knee. Is that to help with any current knee issues you're having? I've been getting a sharp pain in my left knee when squatting lately and wondering if this might help.

[@westman8527]

Have you looked into any peptides for your shoulder or are you thinking you will be fine without them?

[@MHB30]

I'm using TB-500 now. I was using BPC-157, but never really notice much from that.

[@brandonyoung4910]

@@MHB30 BPC makes me so damn lethargic too man. TB is the way to go

[@aaronaustin9814]

How often do you deload and for how long? Also how you know when it’s time to deload?

[@kristiangarrett11]

For reference I’m 5’9 170 and can bench 240 squat 320 and deadlift 380. I can feel when my cns is begging for a break and it usually is around the time I feel weak no matter how much I eat sleep or hydrate. I normally deload for a week. It works for me and I’m not a professional nor do I lift insane weights

[@iam_melliott]

👏👏

[@dragonballer1]

Cant tell if ur traps got bigger or u moved up the barbell higher

[@928guy]

How's working with the Cerberus Squat Bar.. would you recommend ? Much respect

[@MHB30]

It’s been fine so far. The weight isn’t heavy enough for the bar to matter to me, yet. I think, once I get around 760, the whip may become a factor.

[@dlc556]

Height and weight?

[@critical-slayer]

With the shoulder issue what's your favorite accessory lift with bench now and when your fully fit?

[@MHB30]

I like larsen press and close grip a lot. Those are both constants in my training.

[@Czaruspl]

Asking bc curiosity You do squats little asymetric on purpose? Why?

[@MHB30]

Looks fine to me

[@ReclaimedFit]

Anyone know the intro song name?

[@DavenportBarbell1984]

Have you basically done a heavy single once a week up to a 939 lbs deadlift 😂😂😂 sorry I’m laughing it’s just so awesome

[@shades4313]

why are your biceps so massive? cuz I thought I heard you say you don’t do curls. So how is this possible lol? I want the secret sauce 😂

[@spskiii]

john i find you cool asf but your videos are hard to stay and watch its good clips just the music is too much id like to watch and listen to raw gym sounds and you talking while lifting i also think it will help with views but just something id rather see

[@Andrew-iq5ud]

Agreed. The music sucks

[@zebliks]

not to be mean but i dislike the rap, i'd prefer grunts and weights hitting eachother
