  • Record breaking powerlifter @mattwenning2164 and 2x Olympian @VaughnWeightlifting stop by to help explain 3 ways to get stronger.
    1) Deadlift: don't forget about working your eccentric lowering! This is HALF your lift - if you always drop the weight from the top you're missing out on long term strength and hypertrophy progress.
    2) Squat: add in 10 second eccentric & long pauses to enhance technique control and your capacity in your bottom position.
    3 Bench: warm up with SLOW tempo descent and ascent as well as some lifts where you try to press as FAST AS POSSIBLE!

    Doc I have a question Sir. I’m 59 and retired from the Marine Corps in 2002. I am currently getting back into lifting and have been performing a lot of your techniques along grip training garnered from watching Magnus the climber. So my question: in 2012 I had a very severe MC accident that broke my Scapula pretty bad among other injuries. I have pretty much full range of motion in the arm and my strength so far is not diminished to much compared to opposite arm. So the resulting injury has cause my Left Shoulder to sit an inch or two lower than my right. How can I offset that variation when trying to shoulder the bar for a squat. This may be helpful content for others that have this issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciate. Thank You Sir! P.s. This channel and Magnus the climber’s channel has brought new drive and desire in my life to be to best me and master the Body God has given me! Truly awesome content!

    Interesting that during his descent there is definitely more of a squat movement. In general the deadlift is a hinge with the shins vertical. Do love the eccentric work.

    • @SquatUniversity
      @SquatUniversity  Рік тому +5

      So the idea is that past the knee on the descent it’s more of a squat in that hips and shoulders drop at the same rate. If you check out my deadlift tutorial with martins licis he likes to break the deadlift into “squat to knee, RDL, then on the way down RDL to knee then squat.” Not saying you turn it into a squat because yes it’s a hinge movement but that the hips and chest rise and and fall at the same rate “like a squat” from the ground to knee position

    • @chattingwithshap8010
      @chattingwithshap8010 Рік тому

      I always teach the conventional deadlift as unlock the knees, hips back as the bar comes down your leg. Avoid squatting into the bottom, which is what the person doing the demo is doing. He is hinging back, but as the bar gets to his knees, he is squatting to get the bar to the ground. You can tell by his shin angle which is over the bar. Now to be fair, everybody has unique limb lengths so it is an individual thing. One issue when somebody squats into the hole is they often lift their hips initially on the pull if the weight is heavy. Love many of your warm-up tips.

    Hi, i follow all your videos about squat, but cant find anyone who center on iliotibial pain i think, only patellar pain. Recently ive squatted normally 250-270 3x5 or 5x5, with no pain, only the soreness 1 day or 2 after workout no back pain no nothing.. Recently see a videos about the famous set of 20 reps with 50 percent of your max, day after 20 reps ive feel annoying pain behind knees, not knee, seems to be the tendon who connects calves with knee from external side, really looking for name but find iliotibial? I can do squat 250 3x5 but now the feeling there is annoying and dont dissapear after 2 or 3 days, cannot find any video in 2tube who says something about this kind of pain, same technique, but never tried the "20" i think its not good, just for try the challenge.. Did i had ot stop 1 week? or two? or see doctor? its not critical painful, but its super annoying, when u warm up, it relief a little bit, but days after they came, after this challenge of 20. I had good ankle movility and squat deep, but i repeat never had pain on knees or tendon after this challenge, what can be?
