Great listen. Thanks fellas.
Will wait to hear your thoughts on some of the sentiments in this video, especially the idea of not actively driving your knees outwards since you seemingly squat this way yourself (knees 'forward'). I think it's pretty ingrained technical advice so these contrasting thoughts would be an interesting discussion for sure
Gabriel truly is a gift to weightlifting. Massively underrated imo
Some great nuggets in this so listen well! 😌
Sir yes sir!
Any punch nuggets?
Vegan nuggets I am sure.
his english is getting very good, he sounds a lot more eloquent in this video compared to his earlier vids
he’s an incredibly smart guy about weightlifting too, it’s he eat that his english is getting so good so he can articulate all his knowledge to everyone
You know it's not bs when almost every answer starts with "ehhh it depends"
I swear the tension between me and my paycheck trying not to pay for 1 to 1 coaching with you guys is becoming unbearable. Excellent content as always!
Just do it
Unless you're competing, I don't see why spending a significant amount of money would be worth it. They pump out heaps of good content and it's seemingly only getting better. You'll surely find a majority of general knowledge with online content.
I bought Gabriel's 4 week beginner program and I did the Thursday session today, and it is just such a high quality program.
I watch all of Gabriel's training videos while I train in my garage instead of listening to music and I get a lot out of my training more, thank you sir gabe!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I really enjoyed hearing him use ratio reasoning right out of the Russian manuals.
father Gabriel has spoken plebs
Fitz probably in tears when Gabriel said his front squat was good
Best weightlifting channel rn 👌🏻
This is a goldmine
Really amazing insights from Gabriel. I was just recently wondering why a lot of elite weightlifters had that slight bit of valgus on heavy back squats
I love listening to these. So many great little tidbits in here.
That’s super interesting. Especially the ratios information. I’m definitely limited by my strength, currently. I’ve been working exclusively on my jerk for 9 months - because of my ruined shoulders, it was catastrophically far behind my clean. Hopefully, when I test it next Thursday, it will finally be at the same weight as my best clean - which is about 87.5% of my best front squat: which lines up perfectly with the 1.16 ratio. My limiting factor is now quad strength - or rather my lack of quad strength! I guess that should be my next focus!
Don't feel bad I can't even clean 50% of my squat loll
@@getstrongby4038 I’m trying not too! Cheers, dude. I think I’ve made peace with the fact that I’m in my early forties, and not strong, and as such - I’m not likely to get much stronger. I like the movements though, and they are stopping me from physically deteriorating. But, I have always been good at learning movement patterns, and have good mobility, so trying to be an efficient lifter, and working on my ratios, has kind of become my main goal. If I can improve my snatch percentages next year - I’ll be happy. It’s trying tricky because I train at home, and can’t drop the weights. A lot of my work is wasted putting things down safely - that’s harder for me to do with heavy snatches, than it is with the clean and jerk. I’m just going to keep chipping away at it though!
@@nickwysoczanskyj785 no problem have you ever tried gaining weight? Maybe a pure strength phase with some extra calories could push your squat up?
I'm terrible at snatching/clean and jerk so I just stick to strength training, I can push press more than I can clean ffs 😆
@@getstrongby4038 I think you’re right. I am gaining weight slowly. I was built like a stick - I’ve gained about 7-8 kg over the last year and a bit. I was chronically underweight. It’s certainly helped. And I’m trying to see if I can gain more. A dedicated hypertrophy and strength block would definitely help. I think that’s my next plan. I figure if I can improve my front squat and strict press numbers - I will likely gain some upwards movement in my C&J. I know that I can squeeze more out of my efficiency in the snatch, as my technique isn’t as good as my C&J; but I definitely need to get stronger if I want to clean and jerk more. I’ll have to start planning out a decent strength phase! 👍
Thank you. Gabriel has a wealth of knowledge.
Thanks for making this, great stuff as always
Thank you for having him on! Loved listening to this conversation.
Absolute legend. Great interview!
Super informative. Thanks guys!
That was very informative. Thank you!
Amazing video and interview. Thank you all!
Great info!
I don’t even squat or do WL anymore but I just freaking love this channel. Thanks for the knowledge.
Gabriel is the best coach!
Solid information!
Very nice!!! Good information about the ratio, any way Much appreciation Gabi , u will remain a history… good luck
Great video, super interesting information from Gabriel. Judging from the ratio thing, my strength exceeds my c&j & snatch by far, need to work on those! Thanks guys for the amazing video.
great video. not a weightlifter but always down for more Squat tips
Holy shit I’m excited to listen to this one, that’s a holy grail notification!
Very interesting.
What does he say about calculating snatch? It sounds like he says take median number between squat, deadlift, and pulls? I think maybe lost in translation or I'm just not getting it.
This was amazing advice. Thanks so much lads *said in my fake Irish accent*
Gabriel is such a friendly man.
great stuff, did you have time to do this for snatch and cnj as well? Gabriel is saying thank you in the end like a serial killer.
Thank you, very interesting.
So what’s your view on his first statement on knees slightly in getting out of the hole?
Having the knees being more straight forward allows for greater quad utilisation and better stimuli. Having knees pushed out father and wide doesn’t give you the same stimuli, or leg drive
While it may not be the absolute best way to squat the most weight, it is what will have the most transfer over the Snatch and C&J.
I’m one of those online athletes in one of his programs 👋
‚Yeah nah I’m not tight when I squat‘ 😂
Boys you forgot to link to Gabriel's website
This might sound weird how I notice this, but his weightlifting grunt sounds exactly like Lu Xiaojun lmao
"Wocao"

I could definitely be wrong, but since dorsiflexion requires tibial internal rotation I imagine this could add to some knee valgus.
I'm a powerlifter but squat with a narrow stance and feet mostly straight and the only way I can hit depth is by cueing my knees in slightly, altho I dont actually have any visible valgus
interview Boyanka and invite her to become a youtuber pls
Shouldn't Olympic lifters be doing front squats?
What was the method to work out snatch weight around 13:00? I couldn't get it
Still don’t know… average out of squat, deadlift and pulls? Doesn’t make sense
@@Cafaura that's a big fn snatch
@@user-dd7pq2to3o a comment down below said it’s 50% of your average of your squats, deadlifts and pulls
@@Cafaura Ah nice, thank you my man
Snatch max should probably be around half of your max conventional deadlift or 2/3 of your max back squat but since olympic lifters don't focus on maxing at back squats or conventional deadlifts, those are only rough estimates. Gabriel works in close contact with lifters and his knowledge is world class. I guess his numbers were pretty close to those marks when he competed at the Olympics. Great upload, guys!
Was the calculation he spoke about for snatch the medium of your backsquat, deadlift and snatch pull? Sorry, the audio on my phone is bad and I couldn't hear it clearly.
Apparently you take 50% of your average backsquat deadlit and pull, that's what I understood
@@weightedsumwl oh awesome thankyou. That makes more sense lol. My interpretation had me at a 138kg Snatch! I wish!
@@jsuewrs135 lol, I guess you just need to work on technique then, bc you are already devilish strong
I thought he said pulls* is as in both snatch and clean pull but idk if that sounds less likely
He sounds like Gatis Kandis
This is crazy
I can't snatch or clean 50% of my squat 😤
@@skmotorcycles8123 much better than me, I can squat 175 but can't even clean 100
