Brent needs more “get the fuck off my lawn” in his voice to really tie the whole “lil Rip” thing together. He sounds too nice.
I was thinking he reminded me of Rip but not in a good way lol. Just doesn't come across the same
@@mrdfk9410 the difference is Rip is built like a man. Brent is built like a harmless little nerd with a fierce beard.
@@djslakor And when somebody weak tries to imitate the walk and mannerisms of a strong man, you get this.
Literally just a young Rip
Kid “I want mark rippetoe’s training advice”
Mom: “we have rips training advice at home”
At home: *brent carter*
I like how Rip has created an heir in his image. We will keep getting our weekly Frahdee doses even after Rip is gone. Rip cares for us bottom 3 percenters!
Brent needs to bulk up a little 😆
Hes been Riplicated
Rip Version 2 is on the way.
His pinkness is coming in nicely
@@jamesembrey3100 he needs to say stupid more often.
2:48 Good enough!? That wasn't fahhhve!
Dude needs to work on the drive-thru more than the leg drive... gain some damn weight son!
Seriously! Bre looks more muscular than this dude 😂
Andy Baker and Jordan Feiganbahm are/were the only SS coaches that are/were really jacked. But I'll bet you all of them are strong af. Different priorities.
Is this dude a stringth trainer looks a little small 😆
I thought leg drive was supposed to push you back towards your head while the weight presses down on your traps?
Her bridge seems bigger than mine 🤣
I use hip drive on the bench
hip DRAAAHVE
Heaaap Draaaahve
The only missing thing from being Rip is “BIEENCH”
Always love when Bri does the modeling :)
I could eat a peach for hours, lol......
Hell yeah 😎
You got that right
Insert “First”
Insert “Rippetoe’s son”
Insert “Bottom of the barrel”
He needs to train arms skinny lol
As I reach the end of NLP (actually headed to the gym to do a deload/reset weight of the B Press today) I have been aware of this but for some reason never felt really certain about the degree of the solidity of my body as a whole unit.
Any maybe it's a well known bro thing otherwise but the tip to raise your butt off the bench then lower it til it touches is exactly the missing link I was looking for. Can't get more solid than that.
Thank you!
did you try the 3 sets of 3 for a few weeks to end the NLP. you might be surprised
@@jamesianv I've only deloaded/reset once and gone down to 2 squats per week. I haven't done the 3x3 yet, but I don't know that I'll do that. We'll see how it goes. I'm older so NLP hasn't been the easiest on my tendons (many of which have a bad past anyway), and the older lifters can't get as much of that milking out of NLP as the younger guys.
I think the sooner I get to a 4-day H/L split with weekly progression, the better; but I also can't help but at least try to milk NLP out for what its worth.
It sure has been fun!
@@HAL-dm1eh I hear you, my left shoulder is giving me problems. Louie Simmons says extremely high reps trains tendons. I haven't tried it yet.
that woman looks like a female gladiator
The video description says "Starting Strength Coach Brent Carter gives some helpful tips on how to use leg drive during the bench press and why it's important."
He gave tips on how to do it but he didn't explain why it's important :(
Dang. Awfully condescending for such a puny bearded elf.
You're quite the soft one.
Brent started off the wrong foot with insulting Michail Kokljajew first thing in this video...
I used to bench without my feet on the ground, someone taught me if I lifted my legs up with bent knees and crossed my feet then it took the lower body completely out of the lift and forced the chest and arms to do all the work. I guess it worked if you only wanted to isolate the chest and triceps but I press way more feet on the ground and leg drive.
For the love of fahves....does no one at starting strength realize that literally no one outside of his immediate family likes brent carter? He did what every small man does; surround himself with strong people, grow a beard, and develop a fascination with his own voice. Congratulations, you have a beard, but the reality is when the traveling carnival comes to town, Nick has to slip the carnie a fahve to get brent through the "you must be this tall to ride" line.
starting strength inter views ?????????????????????
I was hoping this was going to be more helpful :(
Why is the bridge important 😊
Remember do your fives 🏋️
Leg drive on bench is dumb - Larson press is so much better.
Considering you don’t even know how to spell Larsen, you must not know very much about training. Lmao. The bench press is the primary lift. Larsen presses can be used as a main movement or an accessory. They both work.
@@Un1t276 Considering that you're a Rippetoe fan with no videos you must not know very much about training. See, the difference between that and a sic mistake is that I can actually post pictures and videos that actually prove I know very much about training.
@@ProphetFear you squat 280 for 8. You can’t talk here. Go run a 5k instead lil man.
@@ProphetFear come Monday when I lift again, I’ll post a 3rm on bench. And I can guarantee it’s more than yours. Lol. Stay tuned!

By all means compare lifts. I don't do that strength training nonsense, and in fact I think that ROM shown is complete shit for growing muscle just like the ego arch benches with that elbow tuck nonsense people do. If you're lifting weights just to lift heavy weights, that's nonsense to me and I would be more interested in seeing what you look like. If you look worse than me I guess I did my job.
Man bri looks incredible
Why is trying to be Rip?
leg draaahve. i use it.
1:21 low* back
not gonna lie, was really rooting for the cameraman to rotate to the left
pervert
*high five*
He definitely could have tea bagged bri
60+, novice LP, sub-bodyweight BP, here.
Based on some excellent tips I got from an SS coach in Virginia, I tried the leg drive and it seems to act like a valsalva in spirit -- it does something to stabilize & strengthen my core, so that when pushing up my aforementioned puny weight, I'm pushing more against my entire body than just my shoulders or upper body.... it gives me a little bit more oomph.
Good coaching tips are gold.
i am experiencing some gender confusion. Has SS gone woke?
Sorry I don't believe in leg drive and don't think it belongs on the bench press.
Why? I makes a huge difference for me.
That's the point. I want to build my upper body not my hips.
@@LTPottenger The more stable and strong your whole body is (even lying on a bench) the better it contributes to the lift. I know this from experience.
I suppose it matters less on the b press than other stuff but to me, it still matters.
@@HAL-dm1eh There's a difference between stabilizing and simply cheating. Some guy the other day was talking about jaohn haack saying he is so much better at bench press than me. But in reality he is not really even the weight claimed because of the weigh in bs, at least 20 lbs heavier so he is my size or more. Plus he barely has his butt on the bench at all. You can easily get 100 lbs more if you are not on the bench at all but if you are just barely touching it your 'leg drive' can still be easily 50 pounds. Now wtf does 'leg drive' have to do with pushing with your upper body. So his real lift is something like benching 340-360 at 240-250 lbs body weight, which is not even that good but he is hailed as the GREATEST OF ALL TIME. So I can't support this kind of bs it's just ridiculous that anyone goes along with this and doubly so in the context of exercise instead of competition. Arch your back and lift your butt up to do bench press? That is just pathetic.
@@LTPottenger Well, I'm doing it for stability. I can't arch my back all that much because of flexibility, and I wouldn't do it but to a certain extent because of what you mentioned. To the point the average joe does it, it isn't going to make that much difference (arch wise).
I agree a stupid extreme arch is cheating. Getting in a position to be able to push with your legs for stabilization is another story and well, I'm sticking to that one.
