Brian,
Have you ever considered doing a detailed video on your library or at least some of your favorite books that have helped make you the person you want to be?
I've been following your channel for a long time now and while the training advice has helped, the most valuable things I've gotten from it has been the attitude towards training and life in general. If you have any reading recommendations, I'd love to hear them.
That is a really good question. I’ve been asked a few times about the books, but most of the time people want to know about training books. If your comment gets a ton of likes, maybe I will try to put together a video for those you interested
It has to be barbell and plates, if I'm forced to pick one. With this you not only get the big lifts but by jamming it in a corner you get a landmine setup that's great for a huge amount of accessories if you're creative enough. Some ones that spring to mind:
-Landmine row
-Landmine press
-Meadows row
-Landmine lunge
-Landmine hack squat
-Landmine grip work
-Landmine curls (bunch of small plates, grip the very end of the kurling in the webbing between the thumb and index finger)
-Landmine side laterals (only works in an oldschool corner setup, grip the very end of the bar, use straps if needed and raise up and slightly forward)
-Landmine French press (a very sturdy collar, grip the weight plate comfortably in a seated or kneeling position and raise, lower until the collar hits the shoulder and alternating shoulders between reps)
-Landmine sumo deadlift
-Landmine floor press (perpendicular to the bar, grab the collar and press unilaterally)
The incremental loading capacity of all of these accessories as well as the main traditional lifts is also a huge factor.
What an excellent, well thought out answer. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this, my friend!
God bless you and your recovery!
I will pray for you
Thank you so much Kurt
that means a lot
Question of the day:
You nailed it, there is no training more wholesome or progressively loadable than the barbell. It's all I use today anyhow, I wouldn't notice if the cables/dumbbells/kettlebells were absent.
Solid points, and thank you so much for answering the question my friend
As a smaller, older guy, I’m on team kettle bell if I’m limited to one implement. The KBs fit with my plan for longevity strength, conditioning and mobility. I am able to build muscle even in my legs by programming lunges, split squats, carrys with KBs and they work for hinge, arms and rotation/trunk. That said, please don’t take my bar, plates, rack, DBs and sandbags away, I love all the tools of your trade! Thanks and glad you are healing Brother!
I really need to learn more about kettlebell training because I don’t know much at all and so many people love it
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial start with the basic kettlebell swing. It really improved my hip hinge and therefore glutes and back. They are also great for carry’s, if you’re not already crazy strong. They really excel at rotation work. Give them a try. Maybe Brian will make a video about how he specifically uses them in his training (like his offset carry). Stay strong my friend!
Any of Pavel Tsatsouline’s work is highly recommended. Enter the Kettlebell, Return of the Kettlebell, and Kettlebell: Simple & Sinister are some of his best.
QOTD: First 5 months of this year, all I had was kettlebells (cuz that's what i had after moving, full set of hardstyle bells by 4k). And it was fine, there's a ton of basic building stuff you can do and there's lots of work and of course everything off the floor. But man did I miss my barbell work. Finally mid summer got a barbell and some plates (still no rack, so everything comes off the floor) and I still love it. If i had to choose only one, i'd choose barbell (with rack? do we get to include the rack? need a rack, KB's don't need a rack, big advantage). I don't miss not having dumbbells at all.
Surgery: good luck on whatever happens. Any surgery has risks that the docs always poopoo over. (I mean what do they care? it's not their body).
Thank you so much, my friend and well thought out answer! And yeah man, I will give you the rack if you want with a Barbell I think that’s fair
Bb and plates for sure. I don’t use dbs much but for stuff like single arm row or other exercises I can easily replicate with my barbell in a landmine set up. There’s a lot of ways to use a bb, and you could use the plates themselves for various exercises too.
Very solid reasons, my friend, thank you for answering the question
Tricky question getting us thinking! Honestly, though I greatly prefer my barbell by a long shot, I'd choose my adjustable dumbbells. I wouldn't get as strong as I'd like, but they're easier to transport if needed and they would help my compensation/balance. Please don't make me actually give things up though...my Minimalist program requires more than dumbbells!
Immensely glad you're pain free! Here's hoping the good news continues! Love and prayers!
Dumbbells are definitely a great car man. And thank you so much for answering the question.
Hi Brian, good to see your still killing it. To answer your community question, I would choose a barbel, as I’m an Olympic lifter. The two main movements I do a snatch and C&J!
Haha that makes a lot of sense
Tough question! Right now I'd go with sandbags. I started out with KB's and love those, but sandbags are my absolute favourite right now. More because I'd enjoy the workouts more than solely having any of the other tools. Enjoying training helps for consistency which triumphs the "best" tool.
Sandbags or such a game changer
Good to see you recovering well. Good books on the shelves too👍
Thank you so much and I really appreciate the compliment, my friend!
I pray you get good news and that you recover quickly. I love the videos and your positive attitude. I prefer the barbell and plates just because I'm stuck in my ways
Thank you so much for the prayers, William, and for the kind words! And thank you for taking the time to answer the question as well
Sandbags!! Thanks to you and your programs.
Thank you so much for buying them! If it weren’t for people like you, I wouldn’t be doing this job!
Hi Brian! All the best for your injuries. But your positive attitude will serve you well!!
As for the question: I’d say barbell and plates for sure, but sandbags are the most impressive thing I discovered thanks to your videos… tomorrow I start week 2 of your massbuilder program. It’s awesome!!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words, my friend, and thank you for taking the time to answer the question!
Thank you Brian! Appreciate the time you spend on helping us! Hope you heal up soon 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for the support! It means so much you wouldn’t even imagine
@@BrianAlsruheOfficialthanks a lot from me, too.
Your positive mindset is inspiring.
Suffer beautifully, right?
Feel you on the pain factor, hope all recovers well! Been having issue with my my left shoulder on pressing movements (mainly anything overhead), and likewise with the left bicep tendon so I'm relating to the pain you were describing living with and why it would be great to receive such relief!
Def would likewise choose the barbell/plates because even though kettlebells/dumbells or such might have their use(sandbags too).... to me nothing can be as overloaded or progressed and provide such overall great stimulus as compound barbell movements! Most all of my training revolves around the barbell and only implements or the use of dumbells/machines are all secondary but I rely on the barbell for all of my big movements and focuses.
Very well thought out answer and thank you so much for the kind words and I hope you feel better soon brother!
Barbells. They are the easiest to scale up and down out of all the implements especially sandbags. I also think they are the most versatile as I do landmine exercises with mine. I make my answer assuming I have an access to a rack.
I would give you a rack if you wanted to barbell my friend haha thank you for taking the time to answer the question!
Barbell and plates, no questions asked. Nothing feels as good as coming out of a heavy squat!
Hope you got some good news by now about the rotator cuff! If you are struggling adapting to the straps, I suggest you give those versa grip style ones a try.
Inspired by you, I learn to deadlift taking my breath at the top, which meant I always struggled with regular straps or figure 8s. The versas were a game changer, I take almost the same time to set up with them as with my regular hook grip, so no change in technique at all
Hey thanks for the tip brother and sadly I got bad news on the mri but I’m getting a second opinion!
Because of a elbow tweak from grappling I couldn't barbell bench and ohp for two months. Switched to weighted dips and kettlebell ohp, I absolutely love the change up after almost 14 years of benching and barbell ohp-ing. I'd choose kettlebells if I get a dip station, if not I have to stick with a barbell, gotta say the shoulders just move more freely with kettlebells.
I really need to learn more about them because there are so many of you who talk about how good they are
Kettlebells. I love the versatility of them. I also love the strength endurece component (marathons of swing and cleans left your soul dry) and doing movements with 3 points of contact (2 feet's and 1 hand on the ground while the free hand is in charge of moving the weight) not the best way to obtain maximum strength, but a good way to obtain stability in weird and dangerous range of motion (the only way to move without injury's is to adapt to the movement). I will miss the barbells and the sandbags, but I just love the steel balls
Man, I really need to learn more about kettle bells, because so many people love them, and I am definitely ignorant to a lot of what you can do with them
Sir, the Pavel books are a good way to study the subject. You have to take stuff with critical eye, these are old books and have stuff that is outdated, but they have also stuff that you can take from the mother Russia to incorporate in the daily modern life.
Mark wildman is a sport coach (with a UA-cam channel) that teaches training with a heavy base in movement patterns and different planes of motion using all sort of funny equipment.
Lebe Stark it's a little like Pavel: while Pavel teach in his books different power-streng-endurence protocols (power and endurece with kettlebells and calisthenics, streng with barbells) Lebe Stark spoke a lot about classic kettlebell sport, and his channel is pretty active.
The Bionner is a gentleman with huge success on UA-cam because every one of his videos explores a different type of movement from a different school of though.
For a competitive athlete doesn't have so much sense to use training timing and energy on different disciplines, but the ultra focus on just one type of movement have the problem to hurt the athlete for over use of the joints on a specific range of motion (I wish it was different, I love to train kicks, I could jam every day with music or a podcast training the motions for fun. But 1 thousand kicks daily, well, makes my knees sing an awful song)
In motion I see the issue like in martial arts: for your own pleasure and fun you can have a black belt 10 Dan in deadlift, but having fun with different schools of movement makes life even more enjoyable. Have a blessed day, sir.
2 things:
I remember the “comeback” series intro like a fighter intro when you still had the picc line dangling.
Then, immediately prior to the 700 lb deadlift, flipping the bird to said doctor who claimed you couldn’t do it. Definitely spit some coffee on that one…
I have anger issues. That wasn’t my proudest moment.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial No judgment.
Sandbags. 100% I find them way more fun than any other implement
They definitely are super fun and a game changer!
That's tough question of the day. I think I would go for sandbags, because I've never used them before, but when I see you using them in your videos they look like an incredibly versatile way to train.
They are such a game changer, I really can’t recommend them enough
Sandbags! Feels like barbell would be the smart choice but I think I’d get bored and less likely to train without my sandbags and consistency is key
Consistency is King. There is no doubt about that.
Barbells and plates, no question. Glad to hear you’re on the mend Brian
Thank you so much and also thanks for taking the time to answer the question brother
Interesting Brian, I was going to say kettlebells until I heard your pick and it made a lot of sense to me. But I guess I’ll go with kettlebells assuming in this scenario I have a full complement to use…whereas right now I have a very limited set to work with but find them to be very fun. Guess I’m getting bored with Barbells mostly cause I’ve been training for hypertrophy which in retrospect doesn’t make a whole lot of sense as my main goal is to lose weight right now. So calorically I’m usually at maintenance or in a deficit…not good for hypertrophy. You’ve convinced me to try out sandbags and just ordered one last night.might be getting ahead of myself lol as I just started the power building scaled this week and already looking forward to getting the everyday carry. Hope you get some good news on the MRI and happy you’ve had some pain relief. Cheers for all you do, much appreciated.
You are going to love the sandbags! They make a massive difference in your training, and I am so stoked for this next chapter brother!
I'm with you---a barbell and plates would be simply indispensable. I work a manual job and can simulate "sandbag training" with a variety of things that aren't sandbags. Thanks so much for the great content!
Thank you so much for watching it, and for taking the time to answer the question, my friend!
QOTD: A few years ago I would choose the barbell, no doubt. But now I'm more a kettlebell guy. It won't get you that crazy 1RM on the 'main lifts' but they are a very all round tool for training. Best bang for buck imo
Well thought out rationale my friend. Thank you for taking the time to answer.
The pick is tough. If I think of it from training for performance barbell and plates. If thinking of it from training the rest of my life and longevity I would say kettlebells. As a side note I tore my teres minor in April and had to train using the hands free deadlifts while it healed. I definitely thought they would make a great assistance exercise even uninjured as I found I had to brace much harder with them then with normal deads. They definitely made it so I was able to come back from the injury much faster than I would have otherwise. Will be interested in seeing your video on them!
It is all done. I was just waiting until after the weekend to publish it so you can expect it soon, but I had a very similar response to you. I think I’m going to keep it in as an assistance
You just saved me a ton of money and gym space with that Dumbbell trick, not sure why I didn’t think of that.
Also I’m on team barbell and plates.
Loving the training programs by the way, just started the darkhorse program about 4 weeks ago and it is brutal.
Thank you so much for the support and I’m glad the dumbbell trick is going to help you out brother. I can’t remember where I saw it but when I did, I thought it was absolutely genius.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficialglad to hear You're doing well brother I've been watching you for years you're the best, one of the most positive people in the industry, prayers for you brother
Going with dumbbells if I can only pick one. A bit more versatile than barbell, but okay for me since heavy squats wreck my back. I also love front-foot-elevated split sqauts (reverse lunges). I drop down slowly, lightly touch the knee, and explode up, they're rough! Great stuff Brian!
Thank you so much angel and thank you for taking the time to answer the question brother
Kettlebells for me. I love the variety of exercises you can run with KBs and you can make your workout pure strength, endurance strength, or even cardio. And they are easy to port around to cool locations.
Solid explanation my friend. I need to learn more about kettle bells because I’ve never taken them very seriously.
Hope the results are good Brian 🙏
Thank you, my friend!
BB and plates, simply due to the variety of heavy movements you can do with them.
Good luck brother. Either way, we’ll be here for you!
Thank you, my friend, that means so much and thanks for taking the time to answer the question!
Barbell, landmine variations are decent replacements for some DB movements so I'd manage.
That’s a good point and thank you for answering
Fingers crossed for good MRI results!
Thank you my friend I really appreciate that!
Barbell and weights. I've never done work with sandbags (although I plan on starting in the coming months and will be getting your program when I do), and any work I would do with the dumbbells or kettle bells can be replicated with other objects.
Also, I hope your visit with the doctor goes/went well.
Thank you so much my friend and definitely getting a Sandbag training! You won’t believe what a game changer it is! And thanks for taking the time to answer the question, and for the kind words
QOTD: I would choose dumbells because I think it is easier to fix and maintain balanced strength if one leg, shoulder, arm, etc. is weaker than the other.
Heh half way through the video you say about balancing with the split squats. We are on the same page 😀
As for the miss-load of the deadlift, might that be good for balancing out strength as well... say 5lb difference, and lift it from both sides maybe.. with lighter weight too perhaps? No idea, if it would definitely load the back differently than even a single-leg deadlift!
I really hope you don't need surgery again!
I appreciate you taking the time to answer all of this, my friend, and be honest I wouldn’t be sure about the offset dead lift thing, but it be a really interesting experiment.
Thank you for taking the time to answer the question brother
Personally, and there aren't any wrong answers in the end really;
Barbell;
You can fairly simply (with a little ingenuity) figure out how to do isolateral stuff with a bar, less so to balance equilateral movements with smaller implements.
Plus you can use the plates themselves as individual implements for carries and raises and so on.
Very solid points, my friend and thank you for taking the time to answer the question!
I would choose dumbbells. But, I've not had any experience with sandbags and I don't yet feel confident enough with a barbell.
I do plan to get a sandbag or two soon though.
Sandbags are a massive game changer! You will not be sorry that you did that
Kettle-bells 100% Kettle-bells are the most versatile training implement available today. If you can only have one piece of fitness equipment for the rest of your life, a decent weight kettle-bell will allow you to train everything you need to be healthy, strong, and jacked
I definitely need to spend more time with kettlebell training then because I am majorly ignorant to a lot of things you can do with them
Kettlebells. Would miss the barbell, but KB travel easy, can be used for strength, endurance, or mobility
I need to learn more about kettlebell training, because so many people love it. Definitely ignorant to a lot of it.
Barbell and plates for sure!
Thanks for answering!
Best of luck on the injury front and I wish you a speedy recovery. On the question of the week, barbell and plates easily. The fact that it’s such an easy answer for me probably means I should expand my training but….🤷
But if you will do it consistently because you love it, then that will be the best thing for you in the long term anyway. Thanks for taking the time to answer the question brother.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial Of course! In return I think it's awesome you reply as often as you do to responses on here.
In the vein of expanding beyond barbell training, I have a bit with KBs but your channel really has me wanting to get into sandbag training at least a little (I think barbells will always be primary). At the moment though I don't think I have the space to get into it properly or, if that sounds like a cop-out, to want to do it with the restrictions I'd have to work around. Someday though.
I would miss the versatility of dumbbells a lot, but I couldn't give up on barbell squats and deadlifts. Besides, I can always mimic the dumbbells by cheating and using the plates without a barbell for quite a few exercises. But there's nothing you can do to make a dummbell more like a barbell.
That is a very good point my friend and thank you for taking the time to answer the question!
I trained with barbell only for years in my garage using a landmine for single arm work. You are still a beast man. Can you press with a log? Hopefully you will get better soon
Thank you my friend and I’m not sure if I can press with the log yet. Prior to the bicep rupture I definitely couldn’t even hold it in the Rack position but now I might be able to.
Definitely a hard question, I think I would have to go barbell and plates just because pressing sandbags is really tough.
That’s a good point my friend and thanks for taking the time to answer the question
Kettlebells. The bulk of my training is kettlebells and bodyweight. I love swings and snatches.
I think I need to learn more about kettlebell training because a lot of people really seem to love it
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial I do classic compound movements with them, like frontsquats, lunges, rows, overhead press, floorpress etc. together with weighted dips and pullups. Nothing you couldnt do with a barbell or dumbbell, but I like high rep kettlebell swings, snatches and clean and press for conditioning. They just feel like great functional movements...
If I could train unhindered by a lower back injury I would choose barbell training for everything but in reality if I have to choose one implement, it would be dumbbells
I’m sorry about your back my friend. I hope it heals up soon.
Im going with a barbell and plates, theres precious little you cant do. The only thing that would beat it is a loadable dumbbell and calibrated plates
Very solid points Isaac
Hope you get great news on your MRI Sir! What do you call that kettlebell ab twist thing you are doing? Thanks, Jason
Thank you and those are called kettlebell uppercuts
Glad to see you're doing better Brian. I have the Massbuilder. But I'm looking to get stronger for a lifting meet. Is that the Darkhorse program?
The Darkhorse will definitely work really well and so will the four horsemen, but the best would be conjugate which I’m getting ready to release in a few weeks if you can wait that long
@AlphaTnation dope dude. Yeppers I can wait. I actually need to save more, so the wait will be worth it. Damn, I need a gf that can help me saving and that type of crap 😄
Like you Brian I’ve had a few injuries. Recently I had an adductor tear also can be known as a sports hernia during the leg press. I heard something pop on my right leg and I knew something was up. I am always trying to always figure out a workaround, as I have a pin in my shoulder. I won’t be doing legs for a while and I will probably move over to Dumbbell lower body training to be on the safe side. I turn 43 next week and I think the universe is trying to tell me something.
My friend, I feel like the universe is screaming, the same exact thing at me right now.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficialyou’re a legend.
I don't know if you have seen them but Spud make a deadlift harness that might work better than just a strap.
I have not seen them. But I may need to go with it if I’m looking at surgery.
Barbell and plates. Im weak and its got the most potential for growth still
That’s a solid point Zach
100% barbell and plates, way more variety, but Ile miss my sandbags lol
I agree, and thank you for taking the time to answer the question!
"I was mad at him" (the doctor) hahaha, Brian... c'mon! :D LOL
Definitely understand that you don't want to undergo surgery after your last one that went bad
Misloading the bar sucks, haha. About to bench with a misload? One side flies off and you're like "I'm stoopid"
Question of the day: It was an easy one for me. Dumbbells! Why? Well, it has to be dumbbells that go up from 1 kg to at least 100 kg in nice increments, and then some big ones such as 130-150--170-180-200 kg (super dummies). That covers everything as I'll never lift anything more than 400 kg ever. So, the reason why I choose DB's - it's just about longevity. This is choose one for life, right. So I wanna be able tolift until I'm 80 years old, and I don't want imbalances that barbells can create, even though you can do 1-leg stuff with BB's, but it's harder on upper body stuff. DB's are so versatile and what I would choose when I'm old.
Oh and GOOD LUCK WITH THE MRI RESULTS, I hope you don't have to wear a sling again!!
Very well thought out answer and you have me reconsidering what I said! Thanks man
Good video. Guess I would have to pick the barbell route
Thank you for taking the time to answer my friend
I'm torn between barbell & plates and kettlebell. I think as Pavel says the kettlebell maybe the ultimate one piece workout equipment but would take time to master the movements. Most of us are used to the barbell though and that's the mean work we would want to do
I really need to learn more about the kettlebell, because so many people are answering that
Heal Fast Brother.
Thank you so much brother, I really appreciate that
Lovely shelves, are they custom-made?
Yes, my dad and I made them
Definitely a Barbell and Plates (assuming I can also have a squat rack?) otherwise, Dumbells.
Yeah, I think I squat rack is definitely needed if you have a Barbell
I would use a car/or truck rest of my life….so much utility and when you get tired you can still use it
Then I’m going with a wheelchair that has a motorcycle engine
Barbell and plates seems like a no brainer for me :D
Thanks for answering my friend
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial just so that you know, we have talked over email before if you remember, I'm Alen 👋
Im happy that you are getting better but i was wondering how is it possible that biceps seperates from the bone and just heals itself without losing functionality?
I do the hands free deadlift with my kids. They grab the back of my neck and I’ll stand up with them.
Haha excellent!
nice
Thanks for watching my friend
I had something happen to me recently put about 10 extra pounds on one side during a squat, funny thing is i didnt feel a difference 😂 as for my equipment of choice? Even though it wasnt listed, bodyweight implements like a dip and pullup bar, question for you, what would have more carryover to a deadlift, deadrows or kroc rows? Ive tried to find a dead row vs kroc row video but i couldn't find anything
I really think you would get a lot out of both, but ultimately, I believe the dead lift row probably is more focused on the dead left alone
Sorry man, I was voice texting. That’s why there are a lot of typos!
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial the typos is your style brother that's what makes you the best at what you do, thanks a ton I appreciate the reply
Would squatting a yoke be a possible substitute for the strap deadlift?
Possibly.
Barbell and plates
Thanks for answering my man
👍🏾 GOOD STUFF....
I'll try that Gorilla Row!
Definitely do it, it’s a fun variation
Barbells & plates for me, why? You can adapt them so much
Solid point Dolphins fan
Kettlebells, since I allready have some.
I was willing to provide you with anything you wanted, but that’s a fair answer, my friend
Barbell and plates by a country mile. Hope you get some good news Uncle Brian.
Thank you very much, my friend I hope so as well!
Barbell and plates.
Thanks for the answer my friend
Question- I notice you typically use 1 bumper then the rest steel plates, any particular reason why?
At my other Gym, neversate, we have radiant heating in the floors, so we always put one bumper plate on to help protect that. So it’s just habit for me.
Makes sense! I thought it had something to do with bumping the weight further out for more whip or something@@BrianAlsruheOfficial
Barbell and weights
Thanks for answering my friend
Interesting
Thanks, I’m glad you liked it
Barbell!!
Thanks for answering my friend
Bro, It will be a good news. Please don't worry.
QOTD Answer :
Kettlebells for me brother (Versatile as heck).
I mean I can hit mobility, strength, conditioning and flexibility all in one session.
Haha it wasn’t. But I’m gonna get a second opinion.
dumbbells since theyre easier on the joints.
That’s a solid point
I think if you are serious, and you are willing to seriously work, you can get most of the functional strength and conditioning that you are capable of getting with sandbags, and calisthenics. Maybe even all. Whatever you can't hit well with calisthenics, you can hit well with some sandbags.
I don't think most people could commit to that though. It would suck
If someone put together a forever program with calisthenics, and sandbags my brother would surely buy it. He is just opposed to going to a gym. Many people are, they are too intimidated, too cheap, and/or too time broke.
A program like that would really appeal to that demographic.
You bring up some very good points, my friend, and thank you so much for taking the time to answer the question!
For the algorithm
Thank you, as always, my friend!
I think kettle bells have a bigger bang for buck
I need to learn more about kettlebell training so that I can understand this better
Barbell and plates. Adjust weight up and down, dozens of differing exercises to target the 600+ muscles in the human body. Dependable grip for safety.
Solid reasoning, and thank you for answering brother
I tore a pec muscle about 5 yrs ago, surgery was like a 12 month recovery..... Fu@k that..... I did it doing bench, which I now believe is a stupid workout that only benefits Ortho Drs....... I am now training for first amateur strong man & never had surgery...... Don't just jump out & have surgery, take ur time & see if u really need it.
I think this is very wise advice, and I am taking my time and getting many opinions
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial so I've been doing CrossFit for over 5 yrs..... & I'm one of the strongest guys in my gym...... But as I transition to strongman/power lifting...... I'm once again at the bottom of the totem pole...😂😂 Damn it man
By the way, ur breath & brace technique added over 50 lbs to my deadlift almost over night..... Ur vids are better than any personal trainer or coach I've ever had.... Thanks

“When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men … but when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your father who is unseen.”
