Dunno if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream all of the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. Been watching with my brother for the last couple of months xD
I've watched this video like 5 times and it blows me away every time. I think it's the fact Clarence doesn't break a sweat the entire time. It looks like he's not even trying that hard. Clarence you have a genetic gift from God.
+Pastor Gains Yeah, I'm not sure I could unrack it, at least not properly. But I don't have access to 260kg of weight so I'll never have to take that hospital trip.
It would be a trolling gold mine if you entered a powerlifting competition. Just break some records and then fall back into the shadows of the UA-cam fitness community
I have the same body type like you... my ROM is the same and I'm also 178cm tall.. you inspired me to switch from low bar to a beltless high bar paused squat reps... I had to decrease my squat numbers about like 40kgs but i didn't give a damn... it looks and feels much better and my knees are in better shape since I started doing these. Just yesterday i tried 5x5 with 180kgs as shown in this video and I almost died... my goal is 5x5 with 200kg and I would like to hit at least 250kg for one rep grind max till the end of this year... cheers Clarence
This video will forever be prime Clarence... he could have done like 7-8 reps on the first set.. which is an insane 1 rep max number.. it’s a pitty that he didn’t test his 1rm back then:(
I agree on the point that it would be awesome, but I can't see how it would be that beneficial. The squat is so individual and Clarence is clearly a freak of nature
after 1-2 year training for powerlifting purposes with raw squat(parallel depth + low bar + belt + knee sleeves + competition pause)form,there is no fucking barrier putting him away from breaking all time squat record(drug tested or not,nothing gonna change)for his weight division and mb upper division as well.jesus clarence you are really STRONG.impressive as fuck.
Nothing teaches form like paused reps!! Started pause squatting and bracing like Clarence (rotating elbows down and tucking the chin before each rep) and my squats have started to look like this too. Hip hinges out of the hole. Sort of a hybrid between the 'conventional' low and high bar squat.
I train for powerlifting, so I'm more into low bar and 1RM, but this is impressive as fu*k. No belt, no sleeves, no bullshit, just pure strenght. I can easily say you're my MCE, no homo doe
Hey Clarence, have you ever considered using knee sleeves? If not, why? Do you think they add a lot to the weight you can lift? P.S. Thanks for not changing that style of your videos, just lifting, no unnecessary talking or nonsense.
That's where it's at right there. I'n not a coach/trainer/pro or anything, but that looks like some damn good technique. Now I have an idea why you look so comfortable in the bottom position doing cleans.
how do you push your hips forward, increasing the dorsiflexion angle? whenever i try to brace my core my i felt my ankles can't travel that far forward ahead of my knees, any help?
+clarence0 Just read the article about you in allthingsgym, and all I can say is for that age you've been through a lot and your will is incredible, BIG RESPECT for you. Want to ask you what's your best advices for preventing injuries and even staying and becoming more healthy and injury free in the future (outside competitive sports, because I understand that being at a worlds competitive levels takes sacrifices).
if anyone asks what the song is , its Overkill-save me, just discovered it thanks to this video, gona blast it in my workouts along with Lich king, thanks Clarence :D
Clarence, what have you done to avoid butt wink? Your form is great, I assume lots of mobility work? If so, could you tell me? Or even better, make a video? :D
+Kevin32001 I came here to see if anyone had asked about MOBILITY WORK. Clarence, you've experienced tendinitis in the past...now you're squatting big numbers completely RAW. What kind of mobility work are you doing?
+Alexiaden93 yeah If you check his old videos like really old when he was like 14 or 15 he was able to do the splits and all sorts. Dudes been flexible for aaages
+Kevin32001 Work on ankle mobility, one of the biggest reasons your lower back curves and your spine comes out of alignment. The better dorsiflexion you have the more upright you will be able to keep your torso and you will avoid butt wink.
Clarence any suggestions on how to squat ATG more easily, when you have your femurs are longer than your tibias? I see you have a perfect squat build with short femur and long tibia, which makes you able to sit very comfortably ATG. When i try to do that even with heeled shoes i slowly start to lose balance :(
These are some beautiful squats. I chuckle when nikkas put 3-4 plates a side on the bar and that shitty quarter or barely trying to passibly close to hit parallel in some near good morning looking movement. Just get under the bar, take a couple steps back, squat down till your butt finds resistance against the back of your leg and explode back up.
I squatted to a daily max 5-6 days a week for about 4 months, and didn't find that it really worked that great for me. I realized that all those singles didn't really build much muscle. I'm starting to ramp up the frequency again but working up to a 5 rep top set. I think it's working better for me.
Draco Malfoy disliked this
+Mo Yusuf And it seems like his father heard about it too.
:'D
@@Alexiaden93 it's true, I am the father
Real strenght, deep squat, no belt, no knee wraps. ATG and high bar, back squat. AND WITH PAUSE.
The way he just pops out of the hole with 260kgs on his back is amazing to watch
Like turning on all the difficulty settings to high in a video game.
no doubt
Dude, incredible. Made it look easy.
*Puts in spank bank*
+OmarIsuf lol. Thanks brah!
+OmarIsuf haha Omar Isuf himself commenting. Omar, what do you think of this beast.
Lmfao xD
Fucking gross
Dunno if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream all of the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. Been watching with my brother for the last couple of months xD
@Ernesto Jayson definitely, I've been watching on instaflixxer for since december myself :)
I keep coming back to this video year after year.
Good squat motivation those days when you’re not really feeling like doing squats.
0:05 You know you're alpha when you touch the bar and it instantly goes to your back wanting to be squatted
Didn't know Gryffindor had a weightlifting room
Clarence writes poetry with his squats.
What a perfect comment
If could add a pound to my squat for every time Ive watched this video, i would be stronger than clarence
Gravity clearly has little effect
For him g=7.1ms^-2 😂😂
I've watched this video like 5 times and it blows me away every time. I think it's the fact Clarence doesn't break a sweat the entire time. It looks like he's not even trying that hard. Clarence you have a genetic gift from God.
some times its scary watching him cus it seems inhuman
He just had the courage to train that far
idk man he worked pretty damn hard
I honestly can't even imagine having 260kg on my back nevermind squatting it for 5x5!!!!
+Pastor Gains Paused reps too!
+Ryan Riddle and his ass was probally about 2 inches from thr floor lil.
+The Raggedy Doctor and fucking high bar it´s insulting
+Pastor Gains neither did he when he first started :P
+Pastor Gains Yeah, I'm not sure I could unrack it, at least not properly. But I don't have access to 260kg of weight so I'll never have to take that hospital trip.
There's no stopping Clarence, he does wingardium leviosa without a wand

Hey man how’d you do? I love my 5x5 program. I can only do 225lbs for 5x5 at the moment but I want to get to 315lbs in 3 years
3 reds not IPF depth
+Garrett Gonzales Since when your ass touching your ankles is not IPF depth? :D
Ass through grass depth.
+kasihirvi sarcasm bro :d
+drew13600 Actually, they require that your glutes puncture and penetrate the platform.
Garrett Gonzales Bro I just found this comment. Shit's fucking hysterical #MasstheticsLegion
Why hadn't I heard of you earlier? God damn boy , you are strong as a rhino.
2:17 when the drop comes his scream fits PERFECTLY with it
Increased my testosterone by 200%
clarence man your videos literally amaze me every single time.. keep it up!
Please keep posting videos as regularly as possible. It's just dope to watch in general.
This video will forever be prime Clarence... he could have done like 7-8 reps on the first set.. which is an insane 1 rep max number.. it’s a pitty that he didn’t test his 1rm back then:(
The last son of Krypton has returned
Clarence you are an absolute beast! That depth was phenomenal!
Unbelievable ! This channel needs more uploads !!!
These videos make me so happy!!!
can you imagine to do some sort of squat-tutorial video?would be nice to see a super strong dude like you explaining this........thx man
+Eric Zetzsche A lot of people would pay for that...
+Samson Pavlov yeah i know....but asking is for free and maybe he does it or maybe not.......would still be nice
IT WOULD BE AWESOME!
+Eric Zetzsche yes please
I agree on the point that it would be awesome, but I can't see how it would be that beneficial. The squat is so individual and Clarence is clearly a freak of nature
i was so happy when i saw this in my subscriptions lol, been to long clarence.
Damn you got buff man
Swole Harry Potter
haha, these are great!
Simply the best squat about,brilliant Clarence
That last rep was such an amazing effort. RPE 11 :) Great video
Amazing raw strength display as always Mr. Clarkent Kennedy
It's been my favorite squat video ever!!!
Clarence uploads I must be dreaming
Savage stuff man
Great lifts and power. Incredible core strength.
You're a freaking monster bro.
GIGANTIC
This has to be the best full squat technique on UA-cam, awesome.
after 1-2 year training for powerlifting purposes with raw squat(parallel depth + low bar + belt + knee sleeves + competition pause)form,there is no fucking barrier putting him away from breaking all time squat record(drug tested or not,nothing gonna change)for his weight division and mb upper division as well.jesus clarence you are really STRONG.impressive as fuck.
I just came... Seriously this was awesome Clarence :D keep going
+Jean-Philippe Dunas me too man..me too
his form and squat depth are mad!
So strong, so frikin strong. Respect.
Better than any strongman lift in terms of depth and honesty in lifting, true lift well done
OMG LOOKS PERFECT AF!!!
impeccable god-like form. Hats off.
holy shit! unbelievable!
This is my favourite lifting video
strong man. motivational video. ty cl
The king of squatting by far
How many cals per day or do you have any kind of nutrition plan? Or just eat and eat? Great work mate, so strong!
I’ve been trying to squat like this for years ,and gradually I am starting to nail it .. just want to go far heavier
I can’t believe this is almost 10 years old, I remember the day this video dropped
you are very strong pal, nice to see deep squats too!! 👍
Nothing teaches form like paused reps!!
Started pause squatting and bracing like Clarence (rotating elbows down and tucking the chin before each rep) and my squats have started to look like this too. Hip hinges out of the hole. Sort of a hybrid between the 'conventional' low and high bar squat.

Great job, well done
the music is great
Hey Clarence, have you ever considered using knee sleeves? If not, why? Do you think they add a lot to the weight you can lift?
P.S. Thanks for not changing that style of your videos, just lifting, no unnecessary talking or nonsense.
Thought for a second that 2:19 was part of the song
Amazing form! How long were the rest intervals and what would the rest intervals look like between sets if the reps weren't paused?
Incredible
Dat depth doe! Sick squat mate.
Jesus christ, strong work man.
You motivate me! 🙅💪😝
Thing Of Beauty!
*No Belt, No knee Sleeves Just Raw Power. Amazing Strength Bruh.*
I’ve just watched a bloke who’s misses must of been filming him ,he had the worst form ,then I watched this and Clarence u are just a machine
Would you ever do another interview-style video like the one you did with Tomek a few years back?
yes please!
+Patchesmcgee123 Maybe in summer I could meet up with him.
+clarence0 "So Clarence tell me"
+ringlol lol.
+clarence0 The question everyone's been asking... What's your bodyfat percentage? And do you still bicycle to the gym?
He didn't break parallel, he smashed it.
this guy is the real deal!!
Sick dude! How long did you pause in between the sets?
dude! you're hella strong! awesome!
Amazing
That's where it's at right there. I'n not a coach/trainer/pro or anything, but that looks like some damn good technique. Now I have an idea why you look so comfortable in the bottom position doing cleans.
AWESOME MAN!
Gifted.
Nice style!
jealous of the hip mobility. almost 0% buttwink, great control of the pelvis. it would be cool if you did a lower body mobility video.
I think it's his ankle mobility that's the most impressive. His level of dorsiflexion is ridiculous.
@Jacque does that negate the fact that he has great dosiflexion?
UNREAL
Jesus... Great Squat!
You are a beast and good music taste
Looks like Harry Potter ! Oh btw nice form love it ! Amazing strength.
You know you're a strong ass dude when you don't even use safety bars...........because you know you're going to lift that shit up.
I'm so jelly. Sick music too, was that playing in the background or edited in?
how do you push your hips forward, increasing the dorsiflexion angle? whenever i try to brace my core my i felt my ankles can't travel that far forward ahead of my knees, any help?
It's amazing
STRONG!

+Kevin32001 I believe he has said pretty much all of his mobility came from his tricking.
+Alexiaden93 yeah If you check his old videos like really old when he was like 14 or 15 he was able to do the splits and all sorts. Dudes been flexible for aaages
+Kevin32001 Work on ankle mobility, one of the biggest reasons your lower back curves and your spine comes out of alignment. The better dorsiflexion you have the more upright you will be able to keep your torso and you will avoid butt wink.
+Kevin32001 Shoulder and hip mobility work should solve your issue.
You are really insane from time you were a kid until now 2018 and you have future.!.
This is how Back Squat show be performed...!
great man like your videos
Just incredible wow superman .
The real Swole Nerd. Btw where have u been?
Legit superhero
That is one impressive squat Clarence. I would’ve torn myself another asshole if I even attempted to squat that low.
Clarence any suggestions on how to squat ATG more easily, when you have your femurs are longer than your tibias? I see you have a perfect squat build with short femur and long tibia, which makes you able to sit very comfortably ATG. When i try to do that even with heeled shoes i slowly start to lose balance :(
Real beast👹
These are some beautiful squats.

Just get under the bar, take a couple steps back, squat down till your butt finds resistance against the back of your leg and explode back up.
Have you ever suffered from SI pain? And if so, how did you remedy it? Also, 1687 days until Tokyo 2020...that's plenty of time.
How often do you do deadlift as accessory? Is it as important for weightlifting as squats are?
I squatted to a daily max 5-6 days a week for about 4 months, and didn't find that it really worked that great for me. I realized that all those singles didn't really build much muscle. I'm starting to ramp up the frequency again but working up to a 5 rep top set. I think it's working better for me.
which do think is better? I'm planning to squat 5x5 back/paused/front for 3 days in a week
