Hi there 👋 If you're new to my videos my name is Matt. I made a documentary called Minimalism that trended on Netflix a few years back and now I make UA-cam videos. Some people (Jeff) would consider this a huge step backwards and a massive failure but I'm honestly pretty happy with how things turned out. Also Jeff is an asshole. If you like learning about things like minimalism, happiness, productivity, biceps, dodging existential dread, eating food, talking shit about Jeff or overthinking everything, then you're in the right place. Please subscribe so my mother-in-law thinks this is a better career choice than being a doctor.

Well that escalated gradually over the course of 100 days. If you want to grab the same program I used in this video you can get it at strengthsystem.com/matt
i can see very clearly from the thumbnail how powerlifting makes one wear a tank top with chalk and weight belt beneath a wry smile and will keep this in mind for future
I'm going to try this program never done one other than my school coaching for powerlifting so I want to see how much I can do with sum different
Definitely more women doing this now, where when I was growing up, I just remember Arnold.
Congrats, you are officially stronger than the bulk of the male population! That squat and deadlift are something to be proud of.
@mattdavella, I purchased the program and have done the first couple of workouts. Great so far. 👊
However, the program seems to only recommend the weight amounts for the first 4 weeks (Phase 1). Nothing after that. So, I’m not sure what I should lift after the first 4 weeks.
Is this something you or Bas could help with?
Also, you guys should include a disclaimer that this program calls for a lot of machines (e.g., leg press, leg extension, leg curl, cables, and more). It’d be great if Bas could include alt movement suggestions for us home gym crowd. I’m able to come up with some alt movements based on my own knowledge-but I wish I knew before buying.
I’ve messaged through the site’s contact form and dropped IG comments, but no replies.
Hope the feedback helps. Looking forward to hopefully hearing back.
As always, thanks for the great content, Matt.
I loved working with you Matt. You’re a beast! Thank you for choosing me as your coach 🙌🙌
You're an amazing coach, mate 💪
You're amazing man !
@@Shvabicuthank you 🙏
@@JASON_TV143thanks 👊
Thanks for taking the time to train Matt for all of those days! Just got started in my home gym and looked up world records...crazy to see that you're one of the forces driving powerlifting to its best!
Bro tryna collect all side quest points before his kid grows up.
His dad lore is going crazy
This is a requirement so we have things to share.If we expect it or hope for it from our children, then we had better demonstrate courage ourselves.
Ay I'm 1000th like
Bro gonna tell his kid he developed dad strength before being a dad
i might never become a dad although this is my hidden extrem desire ..and most of the time i think of doing many things so that i tell stories to my son..
As a competitive powerlifter myself, I feel like you did an excellent job of capturing the beauty of powerlifting. It's not about roided out meatheads haphazardly lifting heavy weight but regular people that want to better themselves and I think the progress you made is a testament to that. Well done!
Nah, it's about both. And a ton of other kinds of people. It's about the love for powerlifting, not what kind of person is doing it
As someone who trains for strength and is too nervous to compete, this was insanely inspirational. This motivated me to look into local meets happening this year. You made the whole process seem enjoyable. Thanks for sharing this experience, all the best to your future endeavors
Do it 💪
It's you competing against you, and the competition is just a way to measure your growth and incentivize dedication. You'll crush it! Sign up and have a blast.
As a powerlifter who’s been watching you for years, this is random and amazing
Same , gonna compete in april
Same here ahahahahahaa this is quite the plot twist
@@SykoManixgood luck!
@@SykoManix good luck!
@@raymundolovera8796 right? I was like “HUH?!” Lmaooo, hope he keeps doing it
What an absolutely incredible video, massive congrats!!!
I sometimes forget youtube creators also watch youtube.
he really applied the power, and people energizers here!
Thanks Ali!! :)
Now you do it, productivity guy!
Its time for Ali to do it.
Congrats man! This has to be one of my favorites videos so far, from the shooting angles to the storytelling. Excellent work!!
awesome to see so many folks exploring and showing interest in powerlifting. huge congrats. keep you are now a powerlifter
This feels like UA-cam again! You broadcast a journey of your own.
No reactions, no pranks, no screaming, no shitstorm, no beef.
Just a goal, a journey and a camera. Brilliant.
That was never a thing
@@michaelmayers3622that was definitely a thing
this comment hits hard
@@michaelmayers3622 that was definitely a thing
Feels more personable than a step course program.
Nat: Can you be a minimalist after having kids? No
Matt: Can you be a competing powerlifter after having kids? Yes
Hahahah 😅
My husband was training for a cross-country skiing race after our kid was born. I was 4 or 5 months. I think he needed more time alone, outside of home. :D
Not a minimalist but maximally awesome.
Been a follower for over 5 years now & this video hit so different. My favourite sport & one of my favourite content creators ever combine. Outstanding efforts for smashing your PR's Matt!
Thanks for putting out all the stats so clearly, helps with perspective so much.
Matt, congrats on the PRs in competition! This video was awesome! I trained and competed in powerlifting from ~2004 - 2011 and got to train with Lance Karabel and Ed Coan out in Chicago. Seeing Sebastian work, you can instantly tell he really knows his stuff. really enjoyed this one!
now we need to get you back on Powerlifting Doc!!
“He tried minimalism for 30 days; here’s what happened to his brain”
So cool to see this video and get more backstory on Emu’s powerlifting background
I had no idea he powerlifted
@@Lars16 if you watch his old videos of him powerlifting ( you can see clips of him in his latest video) you can really easily tell the probable oirigin of the name "ChubbyEmu"
Congrats man!
Yess!! So cool!!
That was a great watch. Thank you for sharing your journey. Really amazing how you reached beyond your perceived grasp.
This is what a high-achiever mindset can do!
Squat #3 brought me tears of pride, like you are a friend of mine, Matt.
I'm following your journey since dinosaurs and I celebrate your wins man, honestly.
Keep it up and enjoy your life & family 💪🏼
This is by far one of the BEST videos you've ever done Matt!! I saw this clip on your Instagram and thought, what, he's going on his first meet?? I've been thinking about competing too, so this was like a rundown on what to do, what to expect, and how to go about it. I was literally watching on the edge of my seat watching you lift, and I was just as excited when you went for it and exceeded your goals! Now that you got the taste of it, I hope you keep doing this. You look great, you got the potential. Very inspirational, so thank you very much!!
💪💯⭐⭐⭐⭐
Wow thank you :)
I've been waiting for this video to drop! I remember being super shocked just randomly seeing THE Matt D'avella at our local powerlifting meet LOL. Great job again!!
Hey Matt, I've been watching your channel for over 3 years already and I absolutely love the variety of content on your channel. Your way of deliverance is really catchy and entertaining! Your videos gave me a lot of conscience over this time and I much much appreciate it!
I've been doing powerlifting myself for over 5 years and never competed until last autumn. I can totally feel that spirit of the competition through your video! You've done a great job! I was really encouraged when you WENT ALL IT with your last attempts!!! It's was nuts! You've nailed it for sure!
I also got 2nd place (out of 4) and a memory medal! As you've said, I came there not to win but to compete with myself and push forward!
Cheers from Russia! And happy powerlifting💪🏻
Great results my man- very motivating when you decided to bump the competition up past your initial plan- I was cheering for you!
This video was amazing. As a powerlifter myself, the progress that you made was incredible!
This guy tried to compete in powerlifting...what happened next is insane
😂😂😂😂😂😂@@Drplaguescp049
So Massively impressed yet again Matt, thank you for sharing your journey!
HUGE CONGRATUATIONS! You are absolutely fantastic, the ending was really emotional. Well done!
Inspiring. Made me shed a tear seeing you not only accomplish but over accomplish the goal weight.
Same!!!
same
I've had goosebumps
This is amazing. The progress you have made in 100 days is staggering. Goes to show what a world class coach and hyper specific training program can do.
This is so inspiring Matt. Been following you since I saw your Minimalism doc in 2018 which changed my life. So happy for you and your success. Thank you for sharing
This is so genious! You are genious! I truly appreciate the effort you but in, not only to your videos, editing, etc. - but also the life content behind it. AWESOME!!!
damn the end had me lowkey emotional. What a crazy journey Matt, very cool to see!
You are the reason why I came to the gym today after 2 months, thank you for the inspiration!
This was so much fun to watch!! You're still the very best at this UA-cam thing, Matt!
What an amazing video!! I've been watching your content for a few years now, and I workout regularly, but something I never expected was that you made a fitness video like this one, entering a powerlifting meet, and giving it everything you got. You did phenomenally well, massive congrats Matt!! I hope to see you compete again for a 2nd time, with all the knowledge and experience gained I should be even better and more rewarding! Can we expect a part 2, Matt? 👀
Bro I was so nervous during your lifts!! This is killer, great job.
Never thought I'd see Matt powerlifting 😂
But you absolutely smashed it!! Big up Bas for taking you under his wing, but at the end of the day, you showed up and put up a show!
I'm inspired
You absolutely smashed this, Matt. Really inspiring. Crazy how much your lifts improved.
Truly inspiring!! Also, massive props to your coach!
Ugh why did I cry from how well you did in the competition! Congrats man, you crushed it
Haha aw thanks :)
There's a powerlifter named Matt Vena whose content pops up on my feed all the time, but I'm not a powerlifter, and I never watch it. I've never heard of Matt D'Avella, but it sounded similar enough that I mixed the names up, especially since powerlifting was in the title. I thought this was a powerlifter pretending he'd never powerlifted. I was confused but pleasantly surprised. Great video. And great job!
This was so cool Matt! Congratulations, and thanks for sharing your journey with us.
This was an awesome video man. Absolutely love the journey. So happy for you
Freaking love the way the coach is teaching, OMG! So much sense, so much knowledge, donno when it was the last time I have seen someone like that. I swear I was so tearyeyed during the competition when you actually could lift so heavy, this is awesome! So cool!
Matt, honestly your best video in years! Rarely ever do I watch a UA-cam video near 30 minutes long but this was awesome.
Awesome man, congratulations!! All best for you and your family.
Matt, your open mindedness and willingness to constantly learn new things truly inspires me. Thank you 🌟
Another fan who is also a USAPL lifter! This is merging two worlds hahaha
There are many generic comments, but I will say something really genuine. This type of video is really inspiring, knowing that the right preparation can overcome limits, really good, make more videos like this, focusing on training and health, congratulations Matt! 🔥🔥🔥
Brilliant vid, had me cheering at the end! All this AND with a newborn kiddo? Bro is a PRO at life 🔥🤝
Captivating storytelling and amazing production. Had me glued to the screen from start to finish. Great job, Matt.
Here some point to noted
1. Matt obviously trained for multiple number of years
2. He got above average genetic.
3. Good programming and Top level Coaching.
4. He in calories surplus
5. He lifting heavy and try the SBD lift for the first so newbie gains kick in..
6. He's a Dad so, he got buff from having a kid.. Dad strength is REAL
lol
He does not have above average genetics
The one on one coaching definitely helped a ton and I agree, Dad strength is real.
Not to mention lots of money. Those premade meals aren't cheap.
I always wanted to trade crypto for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me although I have watched many UA-cam videos about it but still find it difficult to understand.
It makes sense that BTC and crypto are of helping to regulate, rather than pretend it won't ever happen.
The big institutions getting In is the catalyst that will laugh us made they grow used to it becomes a nonissue usually because of their fears never materialize.
And benefits they were unaware of before turn out to be more beneficial
Trading is easy, but trading the right coin without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard.
I've been in touch with a financial advisor ever since I got into the market. Knowing today's culture The challenge is knowing when to purchase or sell when investing in trending stocks, which is pretty simple. On my portfolio, which has grown over overboard and been making about $1 500 bi-weekly, What I'm trying to say is the 5% of traders in the world that are consistently profitable are very reserved, they are just random/lowkey people no one even expects. My account manager chooses entry and exit orders
Trading with Kate Herman trading analysis
She carries out both orientation and mentorship tutorial
Wonderful man, cheers to your courage & consistency in increased efforts! Bravo!!
Amazing video! I was glued to it like a suspenseful movie and then SQUEELED when you did your first squat and the dinger turned green. This was amazing! Congrats to you on this experience and placing 3rd is incredible!
Fantastic video Matt! Loved watching your journey and smashing out those PBs! You totally had me on the edge of my seat watching you do the comp!
Shut it
You should keep going! This video was so entertaining to watch and I would love to see your powerlifting keep improving rather than just stopping now:)
very impressive!! super enjoyable video, so much that goes into this content i love it
I needed this video. Been putting off getting back into the gym and this is the motivation I need to get back in there and get strong
Absolutely amazing! Your progress blew me away! Well done
This was super cool! Your PRs skyrocketed. So inspirational.
Loved the video Matt! I've been following you and also Sebastian for years now, so was pleasantly surprised when I saw both of your names come up together. I've been powerlifting for a while and have very similar measurements to you, so I could relate to a lot of this video. Great production quality and storytelling, and bloody fantastic results from your 3 month powerlifting training. Here's to the next one ;)
That was really fun to watch! I was rooting for you the whole time. Power lifting is a great sport and the lifters are always so nice and encouraging!
This is crazy Matt! Congratulations! Big achievement! so stoked!
Absolutely incredible video. Congratulations and keep up the hard work!
PROUD!🥹 what a performance and work ethic! I’m also 36, a parent and powerlifting so I totally felt you with this one! Thanks for sharing 🫂
INSANE! i got so pumped during the final competition, well done!!
Im just discovering your channel now, so far.......AMAZING! Storytelling, production, everything! Love it.
Wow man, so proud of you! That was inspiring as hell. I can imagine being over the moon about making that kind of progress. Big congrats!
This was like a freaking movie!! This is very inspirational and very motivating for people who want to get into powerlifting and exercising! Thank you, Matt!
I just recently started back at the gym after a ten year hiatus and it's been such an incredible process. Really cool seeing you reach for another level in your journey. Congrats!
You’ve inspired me to sign up for a competition myself!
Excellent video
Loved the video, props to you and the coach, these are big numbers for only training PL for 100 days, amazing job from both of you!
Wow! What an awesome project and video. Respect and thanks! I learned a lot.
This was such a good watch. The improvement was insane. Well done🎉
This was such a great watch from beginning to end. Congrats Matt, you killed it!!
I have been watching your videos for a long time now and I can say with certain this was your best video yet.....I think the changes you made to your process has paid off and your creativity with this video is off the charts....great work Matt!
Congrats!! Such an inspiring process you share Matt!!
This is my favorite video you’ve put out! What a great effort!
Dude that progress is nothing short of jaw dropping. Congrats!
This pushes me!! Thanks Matt for that goal you inspire us to do too!
I am loving this! High quality info and inspiring work ethic. Plus it's cracking me up
Amazing work! As someone who's been in fitness for a looong time, I love to see it! Could always see in videos that you stay active, but it's fantastic so see someone really test their own limits. I hope you enjoyed it! Powerlifting is very, very satisfying for me personally. Congratulations on some serious strength gains, and on learning how to squat and deadlift properly too. Even if you don't compete, hopefully those big lifts stay in your programming! Well done.
Congrats Matt, love this journey and video so much ❤ please keep training and post more video about fitness 🎉
Incredible video. Extremely inspiring. I was tearing up at the end and felt so proud for you.
Coach Bas is an awesome trainer and awesome guy as well! Had the chance to meet him at the Arnold in Columbus. Definitely one of the best trainers you could ask for as a beginner or as an experienced gym veteran.
I trained for, and did one power lifting competition, just like yourself. It was an amazing experience. On the day of completion, the lifters were so supportive and helpful. The event was so memorable. It's about pushing yourself and performing when the pressure is on. Thanks for posting this, it brought back great memories.
Thank you for showcasing the journey to powerlifting in an approachable and beautiful way.
Very inspiring! Congratulations on your achievements as a powerlifter and as a dad. For sure all these stories are gonna be inspirational for your kid in the future 🥹
This was great and highly motivating to watch! I'm really excited for my current hypertrophy focused programme, but I am SO ready for my strength phase afterwards!
As a powerlifter I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I love how you gave your all and really dove deep into the sport. Keep up the good work!
this video is amazing,you are. Never got this invested in a "100 days" of anything, and you really actually became strong af! congrats!
Inspiring dude those percentages are awesome! An example of dedication and staying true to your training, whilst being a parent!! I commend you man 🤙
well done!! congrats on nailing all three of your lifts!
what an awsome video. congrats on placing 3rd and wishing you and your family the best 🙏🏻
Inspiring!!! Thanks for sharing it. You killed it!!!
Matt's smile towards the end of the video was was true and genuine.
Often when you have a camera on you we tend to artificially smile but that end one was 👌🏻
This is such an awesome video Matt! Congratulations on your PBs, absolute monster effort. As someone who's done powerlifting in the past & met Bas in person a few times I definitely understand that 'intimidation' haha but he's 100% a top bloke, couldn't have picked a better man for the job. Should do a Marathon next!
Great vid matt! Welcome to the sport, We had a full crew out there from Florida and it's awesome to see them in your vid. Killer lifts with some awesome progress!
crazy progress congrats bro
Great Video! Amazing achievement! Excellent Coach!
Really proud of you Matt. I tell people all the time to learn to strength train. It builds so much mental strength. Yes, you are stronger too, but the mental aspect is incredible.
Amazing video. It was so cool learning all that goes into powerlifting and how much strength gains can be made from a coaching plan.
