[@jacksz5127]

I smiled when you said you two were living proof that you could get stronger even if you were older...You’re not old yet so you don’t know that, however I am 68 and I am still getting stronger.

[@philclarke3660]

Couldn't have dropped this video at a better time. Got some pretty heavy post-acid trip loneliness feels, so what better time to go off my program and see where my deadlift strength is at.

[@ezreal134]

Feels

[@dj_coldshower]

Hahaha in the same boat. Chromeo at Red Rocks last night...

[@Pontus95]

And how did it go?

[@dj_coldshower]

I set a PR. It was great.

I always enjoy watching duffin, but his crazy eyes are intimidating af

[@PistolPeteLee]

The guy is a monster

[@jamezax]

Is there any chance bring Josh Bryant to the show

[@MrOnceinside]

I liked reverse grip because it really focused on the correct technique and really there is no way to do bad form doing that exercise, and plus it helps train the correct groove.

[@pierrotmonami9506]

this chris duffin guy is definatly on another level as most of the other guys doing the same stuff

[@MrAvoutour]

Anti-Fragile is a great book! Also great video

[@AchieveStrength]

prototype wrist wraps, they look cool as hell

[@SFRB1187]

Mark, how did you like the A7 bar grip shirt for benching?

[@seanbaker1410]

2:00

[@everburning8127]

Reverse bench is fun, external rotation of the shoulders to sidestep tendon pain.

[@larryfisher2203]

Hey smelly i seen you in a wwe video on KZbin. glad you stuck to this

[@thebassmath]

Random but Chris seems happier in this video than in previous videos.

[@matcoddy6097]

+supertraining06 I like the how you're going into the "why" alot in this video

[@PunchNugget]

he commented on one of my deadlift videos on IG. so cool!!

[@PunchNugget]

"punchnugget"

[@Derrikbulginheadin]

How do you unrack for reverse grip without a spotter?

[@tomsmith1087]

You..dont

[@RealnameKevin]

Or the weight has to be really light for you

[@boneTHUGS111]

you do get used to it after a while. at first it will feel impossible with heavy weight, but after a while it will start to feel much easier. this light weight that he is doing though is no probs to unrack.

[@Mattrossphoto]

I always go down in weight at least 25% for reverse grips. It's weird at first but you get used to it

[@Derrikbulginheadin]

Awesome. Please link me a video of you hitting 370 for 20 with a reverse grip and no spotter, that way I can tell Chris Duffin he's a pussy for using one.

[@CankleCankle]

I’m 4 years old 3’8” 576 lbs, I can bench the bench behind my back. Are my legs mobile?

[@evanhayward7575]

What is the best power bar to invest in for a home gym? does zinc coating hold up?

[@nazrightnow]

Hell ya Reverse grip been doing it ever since Bradely Martyn mentioned it.

[@charlesjarman-price3954]

"currently fearing for his life" hahahahaha

[@felixaltheim]

stupid question: If my focus is on building strength, is a paused bench press better?

[@Sloimer]

I’m 4’8” 873 pounds and in can squat 2,3829 pounds with no feet is that good

[@onua136]

"Sometimes you have to go home & skeet & recover"

[@pbazzz]

Paul Blart?

[@ChicagoScorpion]

What's the name of the song/beat at the beginning?

[@anivarhain]

I am glad doing 220 1x10 on bench press

[@kovacsistvan1554]

Isn´t it the same if you use chains or a slingshot with more weight?

[@archilonshadowheart7]

The barbarian brothers ad anthony Clark would be proud, i was told i wasnt even allowed to do it in competition even if i wanted too.

[@TooTallPowerlifting247]

Reverse bench press? Looks fun!

[@thechairman74]

Bench day should be the new day of the week.

[@crazycjk]

HE NEVER BLINKS ARGHHHH

[@tylervanes6896]

I'm curious, is the bar path supposed to be the same with reverse grip?

[@TyRaff]

In my experience I have more of an arc.

[@atlantairon6424]

duffin is the man. I DREAM of my sumo to look like his, one day lol

[@timdrenovec]

Hey, I really like the sub-maximal weight training style, that Silent Mike and Bart use (probably a lot more too) but I have some problems with choosing how many reps/sets with what weight to do, so I can do clean reps but still progress. I also dont know how to incoorporate progresive overload. Could someone with knowledge about that kind of training style hit me up and we could talk a bit about it, would really appreciate it :)

[@janeman468]

Try doing a 5x5 with a weight that moves easy, add 2,5 the next session, if thats too heavy do a 3x5 with it and session After that a 5x5. This is just an example, no need to over complicate so dont worry too much, just keep upping the weight or up the sets and reps = more volume = bigger musscles

[@timdrenovec]

janeman468 I did 5x5 for 6 months and currently Im doing some kind of powerlifting oriented legs push pull, but I dont like it because I feel like its frying my CNS with all the volume + intensity and I want to try sub maximal training style. I have 415 squat 240 bench and 500 deadlift, I dont think 5x5 would give me good progress (except on my bench cus it sux haha)

[@janeman468]

+Tim Drenovec those are Some Nice Numbers man, I thought you were a beginner so thats why i came up with the 5x5. Currently myself I made a program in excel percentage based, you can find the percentages that match a set of 5 online. I basicly made an easy progression. I start with sets of 8 in week one and go up till a sjngle in 8 weeks. Dropping the sets and reps but upping the weight. Works well for me, its kind of the same thing as 5/3/1 but then 8 weeks long because I found 5/3/1 too boring. I suggest you look it up do for Some info

[@janeman468]

+Tim Drenovec 5/3/1 is training with sub optimal weight byw

[@timdrenovec]

janeman468 Thanks :), I tried 5/3/1 for a little while but it lacks a bit of lift frequency and volume in my opinion, but I am still considering it tho

[@audieali9556]

2 years later and this is still mind blowing

[@thedudewholifts3354]

chriss happy 2 c u man

[@Pa666Ne]

"Yes."

[@r3spect4all]

[@liam8519]

[@shpickey]

Ken shamrock stated he could bench 600 pounds at his peak on the stone cold Steve Austin podcast, what u guys think

[@goobermcdabs8869]

Would be great to see some more WWE guys on the Powercast. Maybe Daniel Bryan?

[@shaunmcgregor2653]

I'm 12 and I can bench 225 85 times

[@ferna2294]

Chris is my favourite natural pole dancer.

[@johanjonsson6504]

Chris benches backwards and Jujimufu benches sideways... what's next?

[@blacksupra001]

Alot of those world record strongman feats like pulling trains boats and planes are done by guys in their 50s and 60s

[@alphalphalete2601]

[@treesnake28]

He smiles like louie CK

[@JohnnyBunzz]

Good STuff

[@czoraa21]

i feel like i'm in an AA meeting confessing my weak movement....... Hi my name is Zach and my weak movement is front squats....... whats yours?

[@Indiadagreat18]

I can do 50 reps with 225 reverse grip!!

[@c1rcaskater911]

Just wait until everyone starts trending and doing reverse grip benching for a while and see how their hands are in 5 years... I tried this grip years ago for a while and it felt great on the shoulders but terrible in the hands and wrist. I got some gains and worked up to heavy sets with them after my normal grip bench routine. I am a CPT and I never recommend people doing these. I stopped doing these because I ended up experiencing symptoms of carpal tunnel more frequently when I did them. Then years later carpal tunnel came back hard and had to get surgery on both hands. Reverse grip bench is one of those higher risk-low reward variations and should be done with caution. You are placing the bar right over the carpal tunnel nerve area and heavy weights can cause damage progressively.

[@alexpenner2027]

How is the bar placement in your hand any different in the reverse grip bench compared to the pronated grip? It should not cause any additional extension at the wrist, right? The only difference I could see is that you might have less radial deviation in the reverse grip.

[@22ImHuge22]

+Alex Penner the difference is instead of having the barbell rest in a straight line, the press has a rack similar to the front rack of a front squat. So it's extremely uncomfortable on the wrist, some experience it even worse than a front rack position

[@CankleCankle]

I bet you don’t like behind the neck shoulder press too

[@michaelohearn1406]

If theres one thing i hate its fake poser accounts.

[@CankleCankle]

Ah ha, you did the thing

[@Cin9999]

if someone told be 25 years of lifting& steroids would give me a 600lb bench, the shoulder mobility of a brick wall, the body of a diabetic fatty gorilla and an incoming heart attack ...i would tell him to fuck off lol but i guess do what you like you go mark xD

[@eduardovaldez2188]

fuck this shit. fuck this shit. this made me feel like shit lol

[@fitnessgenius6689]

Bizarre

[@Rudolfzero]

wish i had easy deadlift ROM like that :( why didnt god make me a manlet?

[@everbackwards4122]

Yep that's why you can't deadlift 900

[@Mylada]

+Ever Backwards Haha... If only my arms were 4 cm shorter, I would bench 405.

[@buffcrazychicken4190]

Reverse grip bench is USELESS and hurts your wrists. Have fun pushing less weight just to jam your wrists.

[@ChuckSalerno90]

eye spy with my lil eye new ST wraps? When can we simpletons order them

[@TheeJimmyStruthers]

A7 fitness reprinting!

[@ratchetandclank8459]

I wish I could take steriods

[@Landynlyerla]

So it's a tricep exercise.

[@eccesignumrex4482]

[@paulmurray5906]

I miss leanna carr...

[@camboyrdee]

gtfo

[@paulmurray5906]

VivaLaCam93 what

[@j-young-d]

Sorry but if they are sumo deadlift they dont count. The range of motion is so small compared to standard deadlift. Deadlift that much standard and then say you did that weight...not sumo. Thanks.

[@ClearSmoke100]

both count, that's why records are held for both

[@Gage_M94]

Please educate yourself... look up sumo vs. traditional on strengththeory.

[@jeriahhardin7651]

Who the fuck are you? Lol

[@maimun2001]

Make PRs at older age - Yes Mark but you are on gear...

[@kennduemortensen5496]

Yo smelly if you slap the beard of chris Duffins face then mike Ohearn wont dare outlift you when he comes to viset .... On second thoghts dont do that ... Chris Duffin is cool

[@tomsmith1087]

[@tomsmith1087]

+Hreidar asberg I did but okay

[@xxconaxx360]

I can bench 140 12 times yea I'm a beast🤔

[@MrOnceinside]

If you weigh 140 then yes you are a beast!

[@DannyHamar]

Haha the bodyweight dudes are the worst. Noob 140 bodyweight people can do 140 for 10. A 300lbs noob cant do 300 for 10
