    Dumbest comment i ever heard about sumo. This is a dude who knows anything about working out. I have actually done emg on sumo and works the glutes and hamstrings about the same level. Also the sumo is better to work the adducters which applies to wrestling. Learn basic anatomy before you start educating people on youtube.

    • @geoffkaminski
      @geoffkaminski 4 місяці тому

      Drilling it is the more important part, but the exercises from my Top 3 Wrestling Strength Exercises would cover it. Deadlifts would make sure your opponent can't break your posture when hes trying to defend, front squats would make sure you have the leg strength to shoot/stand up with the leg, and rows/pull ups would help you hold onto the leg. Obviously there's more but that's a good start

    I do BJJ and wrestled in highschool, I found that trap bar deadlifts were the best deadlift variation for me: they're easier on the back and a lot easier to recover form so I could do more volume/intensity without it interfering with my sport. There's a myth that it's a squat which was disproven by Greg Knuckles

    No love for any pushing movements? Presses?? I prefer farmers walks and RDLs to regular deadlifts.

    • @geoffkaminski
      @geoffkaminski 6 місяців тому

      You should still be doing your presses but I believe these movements should take higher priority over them, especially since most people's pressing muscles are already more developed than their pulling muscles and we pull more than we push in wrestling. For striking sports, like boxing, that'd change of course. Farmers and RDLs are also great!

  • @antoinemalouf
    @antoinemalouf 6 місяців тому

    I would argue the RDL over the deadlift. Harder movement but less risk of injury and you can do higher reps because while you do need postural strength, postural endurance is also very important in your sport. I haven’t wrestled before but it seems like your sport is more endurance than any other

    • @geoffkaminski
      @geoffkaminski 6 місяців тому

      Not a bad take, RDLs are great, but instead of an either or situation I would use them to teach athletes how to hip hinge properly and maintain posture under load. If you just do RDLs, you're missing out on the benefits of the full movement (since RDLs are just a deadlift variation). And you're right, combat sports are in a weird place because you have to have a good mix of endurance and strength

    Thoughts on hexbar deadlifts? Get both quads and posterior?

    • @geoffkaminski
      @geoffkaminski 6 місяців тому

      Not a bad pick, certainly easier to teach. It hits the quads pretty well but not as much of the posterior chain, so you could use it to still get heavy work in during the harder parts of season when everyone's lower backs are fried (since it won't hit that as much). I also love using hexbars for farmers walks. That being said, it'll never beat the front squat or conventional deadlift at the things they do well (developing quads/core/mobility & posterior chain strength respectively)

  • @minhquando100
    @minhquando100 6 місяців тому

    The Olympic lifts is where it’s at. The clean & jerk and the snatch and the lifts that help with the main Olympic lifts will benefit you the most. If possible, I would highly recommend joining an Olympic weightlifting club because a big part of your training will involve the lifts he talks about here in addition to learning the clean & jerk and the snatch.

    • @geoffkaminski
      @geoffkaminski 7 місяців тому

      Zerchers are a more posterior chain dominant squat, so they'll primarily work your hammies, glutes, & lower back, which might be why it's sore. If it's more painful than sore, you're probably not breathing into & bracing your core properly. The first tip in this video (ua-cam.com/video/iHwEnfTibPM/v-deo.htmlsi=TZeu8N1sQxCEyM0b) goes over that stuff & should keep your lower back feeling better. Hope this helps!

    Great video mate. Love the combination of lifting and wrestling. Throwing iron around naturally pairs with throwing bodies around. During the Bronze Era this was common knowledge snd the two arts were closely intertwined, Hackenschmidt, even Sandow, etc. Refreshing to see in the MA space which seems to have an anti-bodybuilder/muscle bias (maybe not so much in wrestling but still, many like the mythology of technique over size).
