Steve Cook - The Golden boy of Fitness👊

[@lukebullen705]

Jack Golden boy of bodybuilding is Bob Paris IMO.

[@filmparodies907]

I don't know whether you'll acknowledge this comment, but thank you for all the love, support, and advice you provide to others! It's very empowering to see 2 of the most influential/inspiring people in the bodybuilding industry come together as one. Thanks Steve.

[@swoldiernation]

Not feeling the board-shorts. Looking for a nice blue pair!

[@apollo4657]

Steve Cook check out Hawaiian Island Creations website. They've got some good looking unique board shorts options. And their standard colors like blue are on point.

[@richfuzz9076]

Steve Cook the ol' faithfuls :)

[@bdotrock90]

keep up the great work man!

[@kristianmeyer6143]

I agree that they are a little too loud. You want them concentrating on that suck physique not how many colors you have on one pair of board shorts. Keep killing if Steve! Big lad!

[@Ilovemychickenadobo]

Try light red

[@sikkunt5644]

I've been doing PHAT for 4 weeks now, I'm leaner and stronger. Layne is THE man

[@federicokelly840]

Haven't seen you this happy in a while bro. Can't even tell your stress levels. Competing is your thing!

[@aristotledaphnis4097]

Layne's PHAT routine is great. I've combined principles from both his and Ogus's PHAT routines into my own and have been progressing week in and week out. Layne knows his stuff.

[@jmwardle6551]

Haters can say whatever they want about Layne Norton... Dude goes hard AF every time.

[@cgraf83]

No doubt he does. He's still a f wit though

[@yuukimurai15]

Dopest intro I've seen! I really respect how you have an open mindset and try all different kinds of fitness. Thank you Steve!

[@mrrawww2427]

Steve you are without a doubt in the best shape I've seen you in ... maybe the few years out done you some favours ... also loving the content!

[@jamiecollings5857]

Was literally about to go to sleep when I saw you uploaded, so had to watch 😂

[@ilpuntouk]

I know some people aren't liking the intro but I'm digging it man

[@Suede224]

Over the top baby!! I'm young and know that movie, you can't beat good 80s and 90s movies

[@kylebainbridge522]

I have to say I used to believe you were the worst in the fitness industry. I can't tell you enough how wrong I was. You are one of the most well rounded athletes in the biz. Your advice is well received. Thanks buddy!

[@swoldiernation]

Kyle Bainbridge thanks ... I think lol

[@johnsonj1371]

"Over the Top" is on of my favorite movies ever!!!!

[@Geared4Gainz]

Steve is probably the most well rounded fitness industry individual. Anyone else agree??

[@msclassyfabulous]

Nice work Steve! I'm a powerlifter from the UK and just wanted to share some deadlift tips which I've found helpful from Coach Mark Rippetoe: 1) When taking your stance, point feet slightly outwards 2) as you lift the bar, push your knees & quads out in line with your toes (not letting your knees cave in). These help you engage your lower body better when deadlifting.

[@jeremywinkler8275]

Really excited for you Steve! Keep up the grind!!

[@BeyondGenetics]

Been waiting for this video all day. Already liked the video since I know it's going to be epic

[@freshfonzz6652]

Physique goals 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 awesome tips to get my deadlift better thanks!

[@ajamigbeck]

[@maafmartialartandfitness1313]

[@maafmartialartandfitness1313]

Give away*

[@maafmartialartandfitness1313]

Love that intro 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@rodneyfulmer7690]

Steve, here is a possible fix for some of your lower back pain. When deadlifting, look down when you're down and up when your up. So, when the bar is on the ground, you should be looking down. As you stand up with the bar you will be looking straight forward "at your horizon". This will keep your spine in a safe neutral position throughout the movement and will also encourage your hips to be further back when you start and finish the movement. When going back down, if your hips are able to go back slightly more, then your knees won't be forward causing you to move the bar around the knees and putting the bulk of your weight on your lower back instead of on your glutes and hams like it should be. This is very common with people who have a very strong squat, which you do. Good luck!

[@KASHFITNESS]

Layne Norton is the true OG! Well respected within the fitness industry.

[@corey_drums]

Well respected as a fake natty trolol

[@Music_is_MyBestFriend]

Thanks Layne for teaching me that breathing technique!!! My squats and deadlifts improved a lot, my lower back is not painfull anymore the next day after doing them :-) I hope to meet you guy in Birmingham 😉 💪

[@JK-ww3ib]

I used the bracing technique tonight and comfortably added 10kg to my squat, nice one Steve

[@Nilli4rock]

First seeing this @layne´s channel, and now here, awesome stuff guys!

[@rob12bol]

Greetings from Costa Rica, thanks for the inspiration Big Lad !! 💪🏻😏

[@samin_fitcoach]

its amazing the diference between layne`s arm when its flexed vs relaxed!! also steve got big af

[@AlVanFit]

very good info from Layne on scapula, appreciate the vid and collab of 2 different strong minds and strengths.

[@marcosr5058]

Great video! 👍🏼👍🏼 I learned a few things! 👌🏼

[@isaacsansome]

Pls keep doing this steve, collabing with dam right legend like Layne.

[@empirejackson]

Damn thoses video are so good ... I check Steve's channel before Netflix now

[@gametime5726]

Looking awesome Steve and still hitting some decently heavy weight this close 👍

[@reecefreeman1521]

Spot on good to see that core strength!

[@GMDGeek]

I don't have the best deadlift form this was awesome!

[@austiningramfit]

Loving the intro !!!

[@TrueLivingFitness]

Awesome collaboration!

[@lmbcars]

Steve cook and Layne Norton !?!? best collaboration ever

[@ulises1371]

I've been taught to lean back into a squat when I dead lift and it honestly helps a lot because the bar is already off the ground when I'm ready to lift. Idk what this guy was on using almost all back

[@joels1016]

Dr. Norton representing Chem majors in da'house!

[@scottrayborn1657]

I see you low-key advertising that Ghost Pre when you were stretching.. Smooth

[@anirbano]

The intro is dope and professional at the same time.

[@corey_drums]

Nope it's aids

[@gigitman123]

Steve motives me for my first physique comp coming up

[@christophercallaway4013]

You left the stress of a relationship going on that is hard with all you got going on but you can do it that's how married people with kids do it. I'm getting ready to leave on deployment to Iraq leaving my wife and 6 year old boy behind but sacrifice for the greater good is required. I look forward to your videos while I'm gone to keep me motivated and remembering the USA. So you can't slack the next year while I'm gone I have high standards for you Steve no slacking bro!

[@UnderdogWilson95]

Forever inspired by you man, amazing physique and just an all round awesome person, keep doing you man, love from the UK!!! P.S. whats the song you used in the intro?

[@chad39384]

hey steve, you are way ahead of me in terms of physique and everything, but 2 things that help my rack pulls, front squats, and upright rows all the way from the floor. give it a try brother man! peace!

[@gangster8540]

Damn Steves bench press strength has gone up even tho he is cutting them semi pause reps of 315lb is mad

[@LSFitnessChannel]

Looking awesome Steve!

[@Am61297]

steve your an inspiration to me if only i had a transformation picutre for you to see i been rocking with you since literally day 1 i was 13 at the time now im 19 almost twent i went from 95 to peaking at 185 right now im at 155 leaning out now bulking up again to pass 185 but much lean strenght stayed though thanks to your videos thank you so muchhh

[@Am61297]

*you're sorry i typed too fast from being nervous

[@camohoody]

Hey steve don't know if you'll see this but could you do a whole video on lower back advice? I injured mine squatting almost a year ago due to bad form, I can still workout but I feel a little bit of discomfort near enough every workout. Some advice on how to keep it protected and some exercises to strengthen it would be great.

[@Jordancraigmiller]

Steve, what kind of camera are you guys shooting the workout with? Looks almost like a red!

[@ronstdenis7010]

Pretty sweet bumping into the man himself. Hopefully we can get to training bodybuilding meets calisthenics

[@Charles-ej2ez]

EDM in the intro is simply awesome

[@calebspencer3451]

Powerful Steve Cook

[@swishsplash]

Layne actually arching your back creates like 5 times less pressure to your vertebrae disks. The easiest way to herniate your disk is upperbody in flexed position (like start of the deadlift) with rounded back and then you lift something and accidentally rotate your back at the same time.

[@joshh.3240]

Over the top is an awesome movie!

[@aerhall1224]

Your lats ,from the front (lat spread) got Really better

[@jadavelez434]

If you don't mind what's the name of your intro song ? By the way love your channel your so inspiring

[@BenSimpkinBS]

Second time watching this now!

[@kavinpatel2748]

Ben Simpkin cool?

[@iViperful]

Awesome vid again!

[@James-no3xc]

When your repping more than Steve Cook on the bench and weigh less 😂😂😂

[@jacobhansen9893]

Amazing intro!

[@christophercallaway4013]

Bro Over Top is my 6 year old boys favorite along with Rambo and Rocky of course!

[@eriikr1993]

Steve what's better for beating up a bully? Power lifting or weightlifting? (Asking for a friend).

[@aesleticphysiques4729]

Froggy combing strength training with hypertrophy training as a natural = optimal gains

[@artificialstyle998]

power lifting (Squats, deadlifts), Barbell box jumps, military presses... Hell any type of compound lifts really will increase strength multiple times more and faster than isolation work of bodybuilding.... But you'll also need good athleticism

[@8000abbe]

Froggy haha fighting and focusing on Your neck and legs

[@kavinpatel2748]

Froggy anybody trained in fighting will defeat anybody not trained in fighting, regardless of bench max.

[@GraaY94]

Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong!!!!! I've spent a good few years training muay thai, however this is a combat sport, its not self defence. There is a difference between a brawl and an actual fight. If a big 220lb dude tries to beat me up on the street, then there's probably a solid chance i'll get my ass handed too me. Even with something more self defense orientated like Brazillian jiujitsu. Yes this is designed so that smaller people can still fend off larger opponents, but in reality brute force will usually win. Just because you are trained, doesn't mean crap

[@Rockybodybuilding]

I grew up watching Over the top! Great!

[@The214manny214]

Looking great Steve!! On the side note look out for Ryan Terry he is look unbelievable with great conditioning

[@etongvilla3213]

Idol Steve!! From Philippines :)

[@kylecuviello6841]

Videos are looking great lately...powerful new intro - can we just hear it for ChandMan? 👏🏼

[@7331warrior]

Awesome!!!

[@17LUKELUKE]

Liking the intro

[@TriggerHapySheep]

Yo Steve! can we get an updated daily supplements video?

[@jtbarnes1367]

You got the thumbs up just for the Over the Top reference!

[@Jim-ej3kw]

That tongue cue actually works for bracing.

[@CanadianFE]

I didn't think the intro was bad. Looks legit.

[@aaronpolanco6787]

Those board shorts are legit af Steve.

[@zachmartz9574]

Hey Steve, quick question that I already probably know the answer too but, will you be at the optimum booth at the Arnold?

[@Gyanofsky]

What kind of belt is Layne wearing during the rack pulls. I want one.

[@superguy2569]

I agree. Your girlfriend is the best. Do not let her get away, Steve!

[@77Dom1nator]

Can u show us how to get the t shirt so on point! @Steve Cook

[@LachlanOx]

Hey Steve! Quick question, where are going this time when you come to Australia? Would really like to meet you one day!

[@nickanderson1198]

LachlanOx Melb for Arnold classic

[@Matty_McRad_Actual]

What headphones was Layne wearing?! Steve, that shirt is killing me haha

[@bethanygish7645]

Great video. You're a badass💪🏻

[@saidamirmukhitdinov]

I see that Ghost preworkout STEVEIEE you get sponsored by them too?

[@Rollepakt]

i really liked the intro tbh

[@loonanny1456]

Not feeling that resume intro

[@natalielawyerchick]

LooNanny I have to agree. Kind of lame. We know who you are man.

[@georgehouston2310]

You both need to stop hating on Steve....Damn!......fitness is his passion and business.....so I guess he shouldn't promote himself?????....smh!!

[@ThatGoodBarbequ]

George Houston but see George it's not 'really' promoting him, because if you see the into then you already clicked on the video

[@georgehouston2310]

Brady Patrick.....Your statement does not make sense. You make the assumption that everyone already knows who Steve is.....and that's not true. My point is he is allowed to put together any intro that suits what he is doing in his life at any given moment.......people being petty about such a small nonissue is just plain sad.

[@jonasstrm6234]

Does anyone have a link to that t-shirt?

[@Authan65]

What camera/lens do you film these on?

[@liammacdonald955]

What’s the difference between rack pulls and deadlifts??

[@nickneher4680]

how is that ghost prework out? i want to try it

[@KoltenB9]

Low key dropping a plug for Ghost in his bag at 6:42

[@JoseFlores-407]

Layne is the man!

[@justinchao_]

That new intro Steve!
