Trained with Charles Glass about 21 years ago. Still use the information today... Great guy with amazing insight and teaching method that makes you better for every lift you ever do. Definitely an icon in BB. We are lucky to have him as part of this lifestyle!
I love how there's video of Charles in there in 1993 training Flex Wheeler in preparation for the 93' Olympia & he's still in there 22 years later just as enthusiastic showing anybody how to train. Guy has trained the who's who in the IFBB & doesn't seem to let that get to his head...unlike some other "gurus". Good guy with a passion
This was one of the more enjoyable bodybuilding videos to watch. These guys showed respect to Charles Glass that he deserves and actually listened to his advice unlike some of the other characters posting their videos with him.
Love this video, the inner chest dumbell movement - never seen it before. Will definitely incorporate that! What a cool guy charles is! On the subject of power lifting as a base, back in the golden era they were all in to power lifting as well as bodybuilding so there's no surprise to hear that from Charles.
Apparently everyone in the comment section is either a highly competitive bodybuilder/hypertrophy expert/successful bodybuilding coach with over three decades experience. That said, this was some great content, Mark. Charles is a technician.
Am I an expert in astronomy if I say the Earth revolves around the sun? It's called common sense from easily accessible immutable fact idiot. That's the benefit of living in the age of knowledge. We don't need to live in ignorance.
I love how well spoken you and Mike both are Mark. You ask great questions and just talk in a polite, respectful and well enunciated manner. Awesome video keep up the training session videos we love them.
Mr Glass id genuine about his coaching, love the man! his enthusiasm is contagious, I'm hauling my ass to the gym after watching, excellent informative lesson.
I notice that all the best coaches, advice givers are great by how they explain things. Whether it is life advice, money, fitness, relationships, the most helpful people always leave you hanging on their every word!!
This by far out of all the videos ive watched has really helped me improve my technique and form , i recently maxed out on my bench press at 365lbs and i weigh 167 i bought the slingshot and it has helped me become stronger and made me realize elbows in is the way to go im workingfor that 405 by the end of the year thanks mark for this awesome video
A nice man full of wisdom and genuine love for a sport. He shares his knowledge and experience. Way more than many of us on here have. Yet there will always be know it all's that think they know it all.
This is how your spotter should be! like charles in your face, with you step by step, giving you motivation with words, helping when needed, touching the muscle to build mind and muscle connection, correcting form.. Yea i respect Charles alot!
One of the best training sessions i have seen in a long time. You can see in his eyes how much pride he takes in what he does. Hoping to see a back training session with the famous CHARLES GLASS!!! Great vid guys
thanks for all your knowledge charles....your very knowledgeable...amongst the best trainers and have trained the best....yet u remain so humble...thanks for all u do to help us learn
I was in LA this week and I got to train at Golds Venice. First I thought the $40 day fee was expensive but at the end of my workout it was way worth it I did see Charles there training. It was an Awesome time
Great video. I’ve seen Charles in many magazines over the years. All the pros he’s trained over the years is incredible. First time for me to actually hear him and see his mentality. I could could really get along with this guy and have really good gym talks with him. He’s great.
Great video. Awesome to see pros like you guys being open minded with Charles. I would love to workout with Charles. He has such great passion and energy.
Really a fun and informative video. I love Charles Glass personality. I see personal trainers in the gym where I workout looking at their phones instead of paying attention to their paying customers. Drives me crazy.
Thank you for posting this video, "supertraining06." Charles Glass, the Trainer of Trainers and Champions, is truly an example of a Master Fitness Instructor in my book! Charles, does not just train his clients but also educate them patiently. From one Fitness Instructor to another: Top-Notch performance as a Fitness Instructor, Charles!!! You have my two-thumbs-up approval and admiration!!! Thank you for your continuous contribution to the fitness world, Charles!!! Sincerely yours, Marc
Just randomly watching old videos to maybe switch things up,wow couldn't have been better thing to watch! Ik he's not bout the $ but if I was rich I'd move do w/e & pay any price to have such an amazing not just knowledgeable but such a positive guy like Charles train me.
this was gold just seeing him correcting posture and positioning in these machines and movements as well as controlling tempo/concentration. It's weird seeing the term Bro Science in the comments as pejorative when we're really talking about experience, and here we see a guy working with two different bodies and he just knows what needs to happen; most people can't even figure out what works for them, let alone someone else.
I love that man..I have been telling people to drop the seat and put the bum forward on the machine. to hit the upper outer chest more. and you doing it just proves my point
A lot of the things he explains in this video is very similar to what my dad taught me when I first started lifting. I think these things can only be learn't from people who has a lot of experience through trial and error. My dad's been lifting for over 30 years, he is 58 and his physique is much better than mine, I've only been lifting just under 2 years.
Great video you guys, please do another one with Charles Glass. This day and age people have no descency or respect, how dare u call Charles Glass an idiot or question his expertise. The man is legit and I admire his knowledge and love for powerlifting and bodybuilding. #Salute #RespectYourElders
To all the people crying "Bro-scienceeeeee!!" Bret Contreras literally published a study using EMG readings that showed that muscle fibers are not uniformly stimulated throughout their entire length on any exercise. And that, in fact, different exercises do stimulate different parts of a muscle fibers length to varying degrees. So yes, you can "hit" certain parts of a muscle e.g. "inner chest" "lower bicep" more or less using specific exercises.
I've been a big Charles Glass fan since I saw him train flex wheeler in hardbody! Thats an amazing video for any Flex Wheeler, and Charles Glass fans. One day, if I should be so lucky. I'd love to train for a week with the great Charles Glass.
valuable content . Learnt a lot through this video . Will definitely incorporate these movements in my next workout . Thanks Mark for this valuable piece of content .
Favorite UA-cam Channel! Love these videos. You guys seriously are doing a fantastic job! Keep it up. The comments are spilt and I understand why, but the man is a legend.
What an incredible video. I've seen Charles train with others but never really see him so engaged like this and the stories are amazing. As normal, he provides some excellent tips that can make a huge difference. Let me hit that subscribe button!
Guys great stuff Charles is awesome just some old school golden era bro-science we love. Those dudes never tracked cals, they ate watched carbs if they got fat and increased cardio. Kept it simple.
Charles Glass is cool as f*ck. Awesome to see how passionate and open minded he is about all aspects of lifting. I definitely learned from this video.
Charles is brilliant due to being open minded and understanding how to put a twist on coaching people as individuals.
would love to spend a day in the gym with this guy, so much to learn
John McGrath I was going to post this. He's great.
I would love to be coached by this man, one of the few coolest trainers I have ever seen !

Charles Glass is so old school, I feel like he stayed in the pumping iron era. Great watch.
Just over 30 minutes long and I still didn't think it was long enough, great video.
Mr. Glass's outlook is so different and positive. This guy is amazing! Great video.

No you just need some basic reading comprehension skills and the ability to do some google searches to know this shit is bs.
LeoB_VT_13 lol yeah everyone thinks there experts from google 😉
Am I an expert in astronomy if I say the Earth revolves around the sun? It's called common sense from easily accessible immutable fact idiot.

Never got bored the entire video, just walked through it in one sip. Glass is amazing!
Always love watching Charles Glass impart his wisdom in the bodybuilding and fitness areas. Great video ... taught me a lot!
Love it. Bell really knows his stuff but it is great to see that he is still open to learning from a legend such as Glass.
I notice that all the best coaches, advice givers are great by how they explain things. Whether it is life advice, money, fitness, relationships, the most helpful people always leave you hanging on their every word!!
i like how Charles keeps the conversation going while keeping mind of the time..he's like go go go! :)

Charles Glass was one of my childhood heroes when I was trying to be a bodybuilder, now as an adult he is one of my heroes as a trainer.

Charles Glass looks like an awesome dude !
Charles Glass is the Einstein of building the human body. He really really in my opinion knows how to. Thanks Charles.
wow 550 @ 191??? big ups to mr. glass that's fucking crazy
he said 500 but still thats impressive
Hes fucking bullshitting. You're gullible and stupid enough to believe him.
+Matt Lifts well considering the record is set in the late 80s and is at 565lbs it's not hard to believe.
Charles Glass is a class act.....he is a very knowledgeable guy with a ton of real life experience!
To all the people crying "Bro-scienceeeeee!!"
