The Gym Walls Are Up

[@ZachGonringVlogs]

Steve the type of guy to not be able to float

[@ryanmullaney9842]

Zach Gonring lmaooooooo

[@ruig8612]

Zach Gonring dumbass 12yr old joke but ok

[@strengththroughjoyradio3909]

Is it me, or is Steve looking way smaller all of a sudden?

[@DoNultima]

Its called off-cycle. Not rocket science.

[@strengththroughjoyradio3909]

Steve claimed to be natural before.

[@CultrCnnundrm]

The barracks... home base for Swoldiers

[@garysilko4361]

I'm all in on this right here

[@henrycoutts3202]

Perfect name !

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

Sounds like a army surplus store

[@taylormaines9909]

The Barracks Barracks: Fitness & Athletics

[@hittfitt1471]

Already a gangster skate spot 👍🏼

[@danielh6168]

I love how you're diversifying your fitness

[@Loliipopis]

diversifying AKA sinking

[@alanmaher8090]

Steve, I'm a huge fan and a former D1 college swimmer. I can definitely get you swimming faster than any videos on KZbin if you're interested.

[@brunopinto8300]

Alan Maher as a former swimmer myself i can guarantee thats true

[@benphelps7836]

Alan Maher same as a swimmer i could easily help

[@edihdaws]

I swam once.

[@awesome1112222]

I know how to doggy paddle

[@pabloreyes6221]

+Blake Harris I know how to walk underwater

[@ncelc716]

Swoldier Station

[@darrenyew2377]

nick celcev yes!

[@NumbChief]

you literally copied my idea... i wrote it three hours before you

[@MaxleteFitness]

At least we can definitely say Steve doesn't use oil, or he would've floated haha

[@Barrett-WB]

Why not just call it Swoldier Nation? You have already built the brand.

[@apollo4657]

barrett bersin agreed

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

better than the barracks

[@chrispayne750]

Swoldier Nation doesn't sound like a gym though, and would likely turn away many people looking to join a gym being it sounds military.

[@elliotwalsh4972]

barrett bersin name it the fortress of swolitude

[@BigBadJerryRogers]

It would make the most sense to stick with the brand. If he's keeping membership low, new members are already going to identify with who he is. Swoldier Nation or Swoldier Fitness.

[@daboobzz5359]

Hey Steve! As a D1 college swimmer, the best thing you could do is work on your body position in the water! Always keep your eyes and head focused on the floor of the pool, engage your core too! If you keep a good head position, your body will stay in a straight line and you can avoid any extra drag. When I started to learn how to swim, I was always told that in the water wherever my head goes my body follows!

[@MrKwadwoBoateng]

Steve great work! is anyone else dying when he says, "I really don't get it, I just don't float" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@cesare4926]

remember when Swoldier Nation had Chazz, Carlie and Chandler. lol. times have changed

[@Ruxpinx]

what happened to chandler?

[@PanagiotisRafail]

Keeping it real Steve I like that you aren't just staying confined in the bodybuilding world and you all around fitness lad!! Swiming isn't my strong point either!!

[@gavin.fitson9316]

" the apartment was built in 1825 by General Custer"

[@TheMontyShow]

Not many people realize how much of a learned skill swimming is ...wait until you do an ocean tri...that is swimming!

[@aperezx1]

SICK edit for the back trainerrrrr! 💪🏼👍🏼 more Jacob as well!!!

[@clap5]

You swimming doesn't look too bad. Work on more shoulder mobility and remember to relax and breath normally. Don't hold your breath when you swim. Blow out through your nose when you head in underwater and breath in when you turn to the side. Eventually it's as easy as walking. Just be completely relaxed and you will float better. I had this problem and it's all to do with being comfortable in the water. Train 1 hour 5 days a week first thing when you hit the gym so your muscle are not all tensed up. You will get a good feel for the water quicker.

[@SaurabhVats]

Swoldier Nation is the perfect name for gym why look for others it's your foundation like guys if you all agree with me we want "Swoldier Nation GYM "

[@Zathralos]

whats the song name at 4:58? geez why doesnt the editor include it and more importantly, why isnt it shazamable?

[@Jerrytfitness_]

because of steve and his channel im running a half marathon and a tough mudder

[@chrisgriffin5638]

Song at 4:58?

[@christophercallaway4013]

That is sick building your own gym it's like building a lasting legacy

[@MrHenry6313]

don't worry Steve just keep trying and you will get it. I used to suck at swimming, but I tried really hard and stayed positive and I was able to pass my lifeguard exams!!

[@NumbChief]

Steve! Listen to me right here! Please! your perfect name for the gym is.... Swoldier Station!

[@edgarakathug]

his left stroke. .... JUST WENT VIRAL

[@bricolmane]

Right stroke put a lil baby in a spiral

[@diax14]

when you try to hold your breath while steve is underwater to see if you can hold the same amount of time

[@jakehearn06]

As has been posted before, The gym should be called The Barracks! It is where the Swoldiers live.

[@marklittle2246]

that's crazy you know Haydn Schneider. I went to high school with him at Model. never thought I'd hear you mention him!

[@Vegaman18]

Steve who you trying to fool, we all know Courtney did not get you that Koala. It was staunch man himself, VONZILLA.

[@dodgerblue4ever]

Vegaman18 LOL Dangg!!!

[@slimjimfitness5601]

Don't think I've ever been here so early on a Steve cook video.. under 500 views 😆 keep up the hard work man! There is no finish line!

[@scotts333]

CK is girlfriend goals. She is so down and always in good spirits. Love her till you die, Mr. Cook! ;) Favorite youtube couple.

[@KrystenJanzen]

Awesome gym edit!!! Loved it :)

[@victormatthew]

Stay in the water like a dead person.. proceeds to flail around and sink 😂 It's alright Steve dw you will do great!

[@lonnythompson8131]

I used to play water polo in College. You don't need to float stationary. Practice streamline long glide from wall push off , stay relaxed, gentle kick just enough to keep hips up . Then when swimming think long body, glide on each stroke. Relax shoulders on arm recovery. Happy swimming.

[@simonwhittingham7942]

Finally found something I'm better at than Steve Cook. Floating! Pissed myself laughing at this scene.

[@MattLeeFit]

Flying out to AZ to see this gym once the doors open my man!

[@DeadSpacer100]

Nice video, keep it up! and btw. you cant float because muscle density is higher than the one of water. Fat floats on wather because its density is lower than the one of wather. So a bodybuilder whould have to hold an unrealistic ammount of air to float on wather. An average person with not too much muscle floats on wather without any problems. Or the Bodybuilder just tries to gain some Fat that would work too.. (Dens. : Muscle 1.05g/cm3, Fat 0.95gcm3, Wather 1.00g/cm3)

[@bfitz1373]

lmao

[@Sumoboi1]

I'm pretty sure the difference isn't that large to make a difference. If you hold your breath you'll float if there's no air in your lungs you'll sink doesn't matter if you're fat or ripped.

[@iamb2348]

1. Hah spelling mistake. 2. Lol what. 3. ........ 4. Nigga is u serious

[@DeadSpacer100]

+Marnu B yeaaaah my bad. Yes im serious

[@DeadSpacer100]

+Ryan Suhm depends on how tall you are and yes it does make a difference.

[@PresamSambea]

OMG! I'm laughing so hard! Steve can't float! Just can't take this...

[@colemahon1778]

"I don't float" 😂😂😂

[@donniedarko5529]

Hey Steve! Where is your gym going to be located?? We just moved to az and we have been fans of yours, well my sister and I.... we will really love to train there once its done and algo get to see you

[@TYPOFTUG]

Song name at around 5:00??!?!?

[@superettecafe1925]

saw it the other day...gonna be a huge building. love it

[@bertramvanhouten9916]

good luck with the swimming practice dude! Pretty cool you just show us the floating stuff even tho it didn't go as you wanted. keep going.

[@chilledmonkeebrains]

When u do ur triathlon if the swimming portion is in the ocean, u will find ur buoyancy issue somewhat resolved- I have the same issue- can't float in fresh water-I can in saltwater. Much easier swimming in the ocean once u get past the mental "open water " thing. Work the yardage needed for the race...use a snorkel occasionally to train so breathing isn't an issue and u can keep going- builds muscle endurance for distance 😎

[@zzwildcat73zz]

My next fitness goal is not squatting 5 plates or winning a pro card but being jacked enough that I don't float

[@normloughran3539]

Great vid Steve. I have trouble swimming, as I had an op as a child, so I can't stop the water going up my nose. It's only a problem with the crawl , but it made me hell of a Breaststroker , when I was in school. So we should always focus on the positive. Nice to see Courtney again. Your still my fav couple. " Swole" or "Last Set" would be my choice of names for your gym. Norm.

[@minamashraf5219]

lol at the lady who floated by Steve at the end

[@costymarin3455]

Song 15:20 ?

Keep up the great videos man!

Swoldier Athletic - forming a nation in fitness

[@alphagenx5740]

watching you trying to float😂😂😂 # memeinthemaking

[@romylopez7888]

Steve, to save your shoulders try not to have such a high elbow catch (elbow towards ceiling). If you were standing, your elbow would be abducted over your shoulder causing inpingement. Flatten your stroke that your arm just skins the water. Your elbow would be just under shoulder height of you were standing. Just make sure to get good rotation with your torso. I used to have same problems with my shoulders when I did Tri's. Also, keep your head down (look down toward bottom of pool) and think about swimming down hill. That should help keep your legs from dragging. Hope this helps.

[@KEVOSLICE1]

steve what bike are you using for your race?

[@lightscameralift3365]

Hey Steve I'm a great swimmer but I don't float at all, can't grasp it tried everything just sink the same way starting from my legs and then the rest follows!

[@TheeFiFi]

is three leg days a week too many when looking for gaining mass????

[@maarten6145]

Great man, love your vids !

[@piscesrunner8756]

Don't over think it. Relax . Take a pool noodle and float on it till you are relaxed and then have someone pull it from you. Did that with our son when he was little, I know it's different with a child, but it just showed him how to relax.

[@oOAstoNisheD]

Nice vid always gets me in mood to hit gym! yout gym name... Colosseum?

[@22BStan]

The second I saw that pool/fitness area I knew. Ive been looking at moving into that condo complex myself. Great place and location.

You already said the name 'FOCUS' Yo, let's go to that new place, Focus. Yo, I am going to Focus, who's comin' with me?

[@saulnavarro7009]

name of the song at the end ?

[@JustTechC]

Steve, I'm currently a D1 swimmer, and I can't float either. Honestly I just sink to the bottom like you. Pull the water with your lats not shoulders. You'll cause long term shoulder damage if you are pulling with shoulders. When your head is underwater make sure you are blowing air out of your nose.

[@emma_m0]

Ahhh poor Steve, he sank arse first! 😂

[@elizaentian9949]
