Hey, the average person wouldn't even be in the gym if they were / had been as sick as you. The fact that you're in there moving 100lb, 200+lbs is pretty crazy! Try to not let the "low" numbers frustrate you, since you're inspiring your audience and definitely people at your gym by continuing to show up and put in the work. Hope you get fully recovered soon! WSM 2022? ;-)
Tom, you have improved so much on your squat! Congrats.... Brian will be surprised by how much progress he will make once his treatments are over... Go brian!
Brian, I have been following you for a while now, and you have really pushed my brother and I to seek out gyms like yours in our area (Lafayette, LA) because we are 100% in on your training method. I also have my own medical condition that I struggle with so seeing your perseverance and tenacity through all of it and just grinding on has helped me many a time, so I wanted to thank you for that. Concerning your Lyme Disease, I was wondering if you had ever heard of a medical device called the Rife Machine? My soon-to-be father in law had Lyme and this machine eradicated it completely, as well as one of my close friend’s mother. He and my future sister in law even wrote a thesis on it for school. Essentially, the way it works is that it emits a certain light frequency that matches the frequency of the bacteria strand and kills it. It’s a detox effect, so you have to drink lots of water and do it bit by bit to not overwork your body. Now like you say in your videos, this is what worked for people I know, so I can’t guarantee anything, it’s only a suggestion. And the machine is not cheap. I’m not providing any links or anything to really show that I’m not some salesperson trying to get a couple bucks, just search Rife Machine online and there is a TON of resources. Just trying to help a fellow human out and do the right thing. Keep it up, you’re an inspiration to all us noobs.
I’m a young man. I suffer a wound on one of my legs for over training in martil arts. I past from running 5k every morning, 3 hours of weight training and 2 hours of combat training to don’t be able to walk for 30 minutes without limping and have to take a rest. To my pride, to my sense of self I felt so deeply wounded that some days I continue to ask myself “why I’m stile alive?” “Why I don’t die?” Since that it have being 3 years. Every day for the last 3 years I have put my clothes on and continue to walk, 3 years of feling miserable for all that I have lost. During that time I keep watching your videos, Alan Thralls and AthlenX to keep my going. In this year, 2020, I’m two semester from graduate like a cooker in my home country, after I feel like I have lost everything. Now I can train 5 times a week, stay on my feet 8 o 12 hours cooking, walk for hours and sometimes run. I lost all, I’m grateful for being alive. I have 23 years, I’m crying for remembering the last three years. I cannot lift to much, I cannot run to much, but I can keep training because I’m alive and that it’s more than enough. Thank you sir for all that you have done, when I grown old I want to be like you. And for the other people who read this: always are going to be hard times, but you have to put your shoes on and keep walking, one step after the another.
So true Nicolas Molina, one step at a time. I lost my health at 23. That was super hard. Now after over 15 yrs I`m grateful about the new things life has brought to me ... and am training again. God bless and keep pushing.
Good on you Nicolas , you have the strongest part of your body intact , your Brain my friend , your mindset is great, keep going, I am 57 year old Australian man , and I draw inspiration from Brian's efforts to over come and push on through no matter what. Your self discipline and mind set will help you through out your life, I was close to dead 10 years ago my blood pressure was 220/180 I was dying , I deadlift 210 kilos now and I intend to do strongman until I'm 85 years old then I may play chess but until then, I have a life to lead and love to give, I hope your life goes well young man , your life has purpose and meaning , and that is good to know , but always remember others lives do as well. Peace .
Brian I don’t know how to express how great these videos are. Your never say quit attitude and persistence through all your adversity is unbelievably inspiring. If there’s ever a time I don’t feel like getting after it I think of you, put on a NeverSate shirt, and get to work. Hang in there brother and know that we’re all behind you. 👍
Rebuilding is a humbling and worthwhile goal and has the spirit of your brand, which means, never be satisfied. So embrace it. Don't apologize for it. 🥰 I have so much respect for you because you show tenacity, toughness and endurance in all these videos. So while you may not be happy with it you're an inspiration for me 💪💪💪 570 on a fat axle bar? holy fuckin shit
Hey Brian. Just wanted to mention how amazing seeing miles do the stone over bar at the Arnold's santamanoica. Truly beautiful nic and you have done such amazing things for him and he has always had you're guys' backs by giving everything he has always. Miles is a huge inspiration and so are you and Nic I've got huge love for you all.
I recently tried front squats for the first time. I hate them and never want to do them again ;P, I totally understand the aggravation having the bar bounce off. You're one of my personal heroes, just for the fact that despite your sickness you still manage to push yourself to get done whatever you can. Keep driving!
I enjoyed watching this video. It’s kind of crazy you going through all these health issues, and still lifting more weight than most people. Inspiring!!
I know it's scant consolation but most of what I see you lift even if you don't think it's cool, you're lifting more than some of us ever have. Just getting into 3rd week doing EMOM work. Still getting smoked but enjoying the feeling full body. 10 minutes Deadlift Overhead Press Squat and Kettlebell Farmer's Walk. Can feel improvement so thank you for the inspiration on that. Keep going Brian.
Great to see you getting after it again Big Fella. Looking forward to seeing you getting closer to where you want to be again! You're one of the most resilient guys I've ever seen hey! Time for me to step it up!
I try to watch every video when I'm able. You are motivating me to push harder. I'm 1/4 of your strength on a good day. Keep pushing and inspiring us to live Neversate.
Brian hope the treatment brings some relief. You have such a great channel and content!! I own a small gym in Northern Cali and love NeverSATE. Day 1 EVERY DAY, and keep building! Respect from Cali.
good on you mate , I'm a 57 year old Australian and I have put my training onto strength related and strong man movements such as farmers etc never had such good results, Brian is a inspirational person , good luck with your endeavour's as well.
Brian Have you tried an SSB for front squats? Might help with your pin front squats. Make sure you remove the middle pad, this allows you to get closer to the bar
This comment is for the log overhead press with chains. Did you think about trying resistance bands with dumbbell or kettlebells? Like how you see on a earthquake bar set up.
Hey Brother, If you want to attack the pin front squats, maybe look at using an SSB bar. Would have to adjust your pins accordingly but the surface area of the bar is more forgiving. Just food for thought. Keep getting after it brother!
Awesome work brother keep it up. Youre giving us a lot motivation and strength to keep pushing forward on many levels also in training :) Om mani peme hung
Hm.... Maybe the issue is that the log is too stiff? It can't flex, since it's so wide around. Maybe you could do something like taking a multigrip pull-up bar and duct tape the hell out of it to an earthquake bar? Just try to find the shortest multigrip that you can, so it doesn't dampen the middle of the earthquake bar so much.
Bamboo bar OHP, that will get the instability your looking for especially when you add 2 or more kettlebells or even some smaller plates because they eventually smack into each other. Then its extremely difficult to control. Goodluck!
Justin Epifano I would like to see an experiment with short Average bands (black) off the log with chains below it. The neutral grip handles and nature of the log makes the bamboo bar a bad option, even though it’s normally perfect as you mentioned.
does it matter if my shoulders elevate a little bit when doing bb rows, because i find it impossible to keep shoulders perfectly depressed when doing bb rows and i'm not too upright

You're an absolute warrior Brian. Most people would have given up long ago.
That's a fact. I have so much respect for Brian

6:10 why not just do either a pause front squats or use a box to cut the range of motion short on these Brian?

Sorry to hear, but no doubt you'll push through. All the best and thanks for the content as always.
Even his dogs instinctively admire this guy
I love how this guy does super man sets and plays it down as its just.......ok lol. Fucking beast!
You are a BEAST! Stronger than many 3 men combined even when you're sick.
Brutal work. Enjoyed it. You killed it on those weighted pull ups.
I am sorry your health is unstable again. Keep fighting, you will conquer this!!
Great job !! Truly motivational man...keep fighting!
Praying for u
Great training Brian, Prayers for your recovery
Try using dumbbells attached to the log via bands for stability work.
You're a beast and an inspiration
GHD plate halos are brutal!! Keep getting after it, bud!
Come on Brian 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Foam pipe insulation at the end of the bar would allow the foam to cousion the bar for a lower impact so you could keep the bar on your shoulder.
Brian hope the treatment brings some relief. You have such a great channel and content!! I own a small gym in Northern Cali and love NeverSATE. Day 1 EVERY DAY, and keep building! Respect from Cali.
good on you mate , I'm a 57 year old Australian and I have put my training onto strength related and strong man movements such as farmers etc never had such good results, Brian is a inspirational person , good luck with your endeavour's as well.
I always get so excited to train after I watch your videos. Keep pushing forward, brother!
Very motivational!
Keep going Brian, you can do this. Your comeback is extremely inspiring to watch. I know for sure that you’ll come back better than you were before!
Sick guy pulls 675!!😳😳👍
Just started your Dark horse program, I'm dying but I love it. About to start week 4
Dang man, i thought everything was going better with the treatment. I hope you feel better soon!

Hey Brian, would bands with kettle bells shake more on your log press? I've seen people do the with bench, thought it might work
You could also attach chains to band and loop the bands around the end.
Hey Brother,
If you want to attack the pin front squats, maybe look at using an SSB bar. Would have to adjust your pins accordingly but the surface area of the bar is more forgiving. Just food for thought. Keep getting after it brother!
I use the SSB squatting off jerk blocks in a similar fashion as you front pin squats.
Really enjoyed the video Brian thank you.
Brian, ever try front box squats? I think they work a lot better than pins. Better tightness and contact in your upper body.
Awesome work brother keep it up. Youre giving us a lot motivation and strength to keep pushing forward on many levels also in training :) Om mani peme hung
Try using bands to hang the chains or other weight from the bar to get some real jello-type chaos!
Keep up the great work my man

Animo tú puedes!! Keep up the amazing work!! Saludos amigo
Heads up man! The most important step is the next one.
Instability for the log press could you try resistance bands with kettlebell similar set up to when using a bamboo bar when benching?
Bamboo bar OHP, that will get the instability your looking for especially when you add 2 or more kettlebells or even some smaller plates because they eventually smack into each other. Then its extremely difficult to control. Goodluck!
Justin Epifano I would like to see an experiment with short Average bands (black) off the log with chains below it. The neutral grip handles and nature of the log makes the bamboo bar a bad option, even though it’s normally perfect as you mentioned.
Nice work!
Any advice for building a strong crucifix hold? Or front hammer hold?
does it matter if my shoulders elevate a little bit when doing bb rows, because i find it impossible to keep shoulders perfectly depressed when doing bb rows and i'm not too upright
Do you do personal training online? I’m trying to do a meet this year and I would love for you to coach me if possible
If any of you guys " seal team " , Brian should actually find a way to be in that show as it suit him perfectly =)
👍💪😀
There are times are forget that there are strongmen who don't have potbellies,... Then I get reminded
How's the throwing up been lately?
I think coming back from an injury/sickness is much more harder mentally.
6:57 .....Dude
I could not train with these dogs running around :-)
