Non-Negotiable Exercise Stimuli
Are you becoming detrained in vital areas of fitness without even knowing it? In this video I am going to dive into what types of exercise not only give you the best bang for your buck, but produce the most meaningful results.
In my last video I covered what I consider to be non-negotiable fitness goals
ua-cam.com/video/nbzqrzE1k-k/v-deo.html
By always prioritizing our non-negotiables: functional performance, body composition, tissue and joint health, and overall health and wellness, we can ensure that as we live our life and dive in and out of new hobbies and interests, that we are never doing things at the expense or detriment to things that are vital for our life.
I think being involved in hobbies and sports that interest you add so much enjoyment to life, but it’s key to keep the big picture in mind and make sure that the sum of your activities and workouts include adequate exposure to all of the non-negotiable exercise stimuli discussed in this video. Again, the time and effort required to gain adequate exposure is extremely minimal and the payoffs now, and across our lifetime, are enormous.

Thank you, best explanation I have seen & heard.
what a fuckin clown lmao
Very informative video. I'm a beginner and I face this issue every time I clean & jerk. Nobody has teached me how to do this transition yet and I feel very insecure when I lift the bar over my head.
It's been so difficult to get to the gym since having a toddler. We just went to the park, and there were a bunch of big rocks off to the side. I managed to get a pretty decent workout while the kiddo played on the jungle gym. Thanks for the video!
Interesting. Variety keeps it interesting. If covid lock downs happened again they should bring back aerobics Oz style and some progressive week to week program to xome out of lockdowns fitter than ever. Too many fell into dispear.. Ban fast food ads during lockdowns (none really needed anyway). Binge eatting and panic were at an all time high. PS ive been doing heaps of suitcase carrys just a few minutes most days and looking for alternatives to just walking.
Grab a 25# plate I one hand and walk around with it
I do CrossFit several times a week. I have been focusing on strengthening my hanging muscles which is hard to do in CrossFit. Swing along those bars to get used to moving body through space. Rings are different than bars also. Good advice.
I have long(ish) legs (5'10" - 34" inseam) with a short waist, and when I use the Starting Strength method (especially with weightlifting shoes) I feel REALLY rocked forward over the bar at the beginning of the pull, and end up with a sore back. I think the problem for me is the setup has my hips so high (and legs with very little bend) that after my legs complete the short "leg drive", the rest of the pull is reliant mostly on my lower back. I've started deadlifting in flat soled Van's and dropping my hips a little more at the onset. I'm sure Rippetoe wouldn't like it, but what do you think?
I'd have to see it to have an stronger opinion, but nothing you're saying sounds crazy:) Our proportions will definitely influence what our set-ups look like. Additionally, why you are deadlifting can influence your technique decisions too. Is it for a powerlifting meet, are you deadlifting to support a specific sport, or are you deadlifting as part of a functional fitness program with the goal of transferring fitness, strength, and movement patterns into the real world? There is rarely one single set-up that works perfectly for everyone and for all contexts, so playing around with what may work best for you while keeping your specific context for deadlifting top of mind sounds like a great strategy to me.
I'm almost 68, so my deadlifting is mostly to augment my other weight training, cycling, and overall fitness as aging takes effect. I think the hardest part is accepting where I am physically at this age, as my mind is still convinced it's 30! It's easy to overdo stuff. Anyway, thanks so much for responding!
@@biknjak Amazing!!! It sounds like you are well ahead of most people with you perspective and forgetting you're not 30 sounds like a problem that probably has a net benefit to your life:) Keep it up! If you want to dig into the philosophies behind how I make my fitness decisions, you can check out my website here: movementlink.fit/understanding-the-value-of-cross-training
@@Movement-Link Thanks!👍
This is probably the best third pull on a clean video I’ve seen. My only question is: how do you aggressively pull down while loosening your grip enough to turn the elbows over?
Thank you for the supportive comment! I’m happy the video has helped!!! You’ll maintain your grip as you pull yourself down (keeping knuckles facing down and elbows high). When you reach the point when you’re going to turn the elbows over to create your front rack to receive the bar, all them pulling is over, so your grip loosens then with the only priority of getting into your front rack, but at that point, you don’t need to keep pulling. Practicing this with a barbell is a great way to warm-up and get extra skill work in before a workout. I hope that helps!
Interesting. I'll try for a few days and report back
Great video!👍 (I noticed the cleaner and bucket. You might check - Anatoly might be lurking nearby waiting to "help")....😅
😂😂
Liked and subscribed.
Very good explanation of the concept "using the bar to pull yourself under the bar". It's kind of confusing for a beginner like me, thanks bro
Glad to see you posting again Kyle. We miss being in Austin and going to your workouts.
brilliant tip, love it
Thanks.
please do a video where you put it into action please!!
Who is the background artist?
Salute sir 🫡 !! The explanation on point 👌🏻you slayed my big brother 😘
My man slapping his own thighs and butt a whole lot here
With a body like that , are you not ashamed of filming shirtless??? Are you fucking serious? See that’s the problem with cross fitters they think they are elite advanced!! Man you look like u never worked out , very very bad physical condition my GOD
Great explanation.
I didn’t realize it but I’ve started doing it with my head down, and these last couple days I’ve noticed after doing my push-ups is that my neck hurts sooooo bad like not muscle but nerve or bone type hurting. I’m gonna go to the chiropractor soon but do you think that has something to do with my pain?
It's hard to know for sure from this side of things, but if I ever feel like I need to see a physical therapist or a chiropractor for an issue, I want to be sure I am doing everything, that I am aware of, correctly. It's always good to get "nerve or bone type hurting" checked out by a professional:)
@@Movement-Link okay thanks. I’ll do push-ups the right way and see if it helps
En español
This is outstanding!!! Thx!!!
This is helpful.
Your Videos helped me a shit ton mate
How what about I just wear a neck brace specifically for when doing pushups to keep it straight?
Hahahahhaha quad dominant here and that leg shake made me laugh bc that’s what I’ve just done! Lol
Low enough for the rep to count
Imma try this after many fails 🙏
I ended up getting just by doing high pullups till it was high enough to get over the bar
Is this the same with the sumo deadlift? When I am lifting heavier weights, I recognize 1:50. My back rounds cause my butt is too high up at the start of the lift.
Generally, yes. The more bent over we get, the more torque it puts on our core which makes it harder to stay braced and neutral. There are many different styles, but if you're trying to stay more upright and ending up in a bent over position, even in the sumo, it likely points to weaker quads. I hope that helps!
Something to put in the back pocket. Thanks for this!
Sauna push ups 20 I can get most folks to do
ty!
Thanks will try
What was your time?
I wish I remembered! Sorry! It looks like in that video I was using 95lbs, so with a 45min time cap and me using a scaled weight, my guess would be that I finished somewhere between 30 and 35 minutes. Sorry, I don't remember!
Can my legs be a little wider?
Absolutely. The wide they are the more stable you are against the floor and the narrower they are the more core tightness you'll be able to create. Most people opt for a width similar to what they would use if they were just standing up. I hope that helps!!!
@@Movement-Linkwhat about the arms?
@@mysteriousdora6914 The width of your arms will determine how much of certain muscles will be used. In general, our approach is for the majority of our reps to be performed with a standard distance with hands just outside the shoulders. Narrower will bias the triceps more and wider will bias the chest, all good to add variation into your program:)
Salute
I get some serious headache when I do push ups with my head up. Now I understand why. Thanks for this video
Underrated video...lifting rocks is not ridiculous its practical
so is 1:30 correct? sorry sir my english is too bad i cant understand please give me answer
No. Have your head down but not down too much
Super helpful! The many videos I have watched made no mention of hips and consequently I have been struggling with the push press without any thought about the importance of incorporating my hips. Very excited to push press now!
That’s a great idea!
Dude this is a great explanation of exactly my issue thank you!
You nailed it bro, thanks for these amazing informations!
Thank u sir for clearing my doubt......❤️🙌
Great vid! very detailed thanks
Thanks
