Hey John I’m sure you don’t see all these comments but I just wanted to let ya know I’ve been a follower for years now. Your videos are what got me into lifting heavy ass weight. Thanks and best of luck to ya man
I’m at 3 times per week now. Which is what a normally train at. I was as low as 1x during strongman prep. Might add a second heavy single day in to get used to holding heavy weight again.
are you never worried about being too lean? are you any stronger with more fat on your legs or does it just take too long to get to that point that its unnoticed?
@@MHB30hey man great stuff! I can’t find any good review videos of Proven Strength app. Have you seen any? Considering trying it out but gotta do my due diligence before committing. My schedule changes week to week, does the app give option to switch back and forth between 3 days a week and 5? Does it give you the option to swap exercises? Especially for accessories. I’m a firefighter and different stations can have totally different equipment. I try to squat and bench at home where I have good equipment; and deadlift, OHP and accessories at work where it’s a mixed bag.
It will likely be lower than that he will probably go for 320/345/365 (i think thats the world record pretty sure he will go for that) also john most often hits heavier weights in training than he does in the comp for squat
@frigidowl6492 true enough, the stretch reflex is over after a few milliseconds. I just like holding longer as a prep for the first pull on a snatch which basically feels like a modified squat off the ground. Not doing it the way I do certainly hasn't hurt his godlike ability to pull.
Be really careful with bench. If your groove isn't feeling right and you jump the weight up, you will tear a pec guaranteed. Not worth it for one competition.
John: *wears mic entire workout*
John: "whew."
I’m a man of many words

That intro never gets old.
Because he's Santa Clause, bringing us all the humble pie
This intro is legendary
it's public domain
real
I couldn’t agree more, that’s my favorite TH-cam intro ever
The quads striations are absolutely crazy.
Quads going absolutely bonkers
An 800 LB. Pound squat at 198lb. has a nice ring to it.
Thanks for taking us on the journey again, man. I really enjoy these. Wishing you the best on the prep.
Looking forward to this prep
Looks like all the strongman training is really beneficial for squat. I'm sure your bench will come back. Cheers for the upload!
he looks even more rock solid than before. strongman really fucking trains the core.
Definitely has benefitted the squat.
There's a reason the top strongmen can make a 700 lb raw squat look like a joke
Strongman makes you stronger.. Hmm 🧐
This guy should get into powerlifting! He'd be pretty good!
Appreciate the variety of angles in this one. Working on my highbar form and the rear shots really help to see what your hips/back are doing.
you sure you aint miring some booty gainz
don't lie, you just want to see america's ass
I’m sure the bench will come back but dang squats looks so good

just wonderful, to watch the GOAT at work!
John is back at what he does best.
Thanks for posting the training!
Oh crap I missed the upload by 4 days 😢. Can’t wait to see the prep again, American pro is gonna be sick. 💪🤛
Would love to see some masterclass and programming videos.
I bought tickets for your day. Super excited.
Comment for that algorithm, keep going bro
Oh gawd I missed these videos.
This has slick editing. Good shit John
Are you going to up the frequency for bench? Would you make some modifications if things aren’t where you’d hope in a couple weeks?

i wasnt aware the risk of hiv at the american pro was so substantial youd have to start prep
Finally back to powerlifting 🎉
good to see you back
Good luck man!

Good to see you back at mad town (pun intended lol). Good luck man you got this shit. Inspiration to the lifting community.
Such a freaking Beast❤
I can’t wait for this meet!!! 💪
The proven strength app really works!! Genius
Glad to hear it’s working well for you!

With the app can we change it to percentage instead of rpe?
Video editing is looking sick bro 👌🏼
Missed the powerlifting prep videos
That looks like an amazing gym
Welcome back king
Hes back
hes haack
The Man The Myth The legend.
Done with Evolve? And r u still working with Mike T?
Looking jacked
even tho it is in the title i can not belive the prep starts at 345kg dear lord help the others john is coming to take it all
The goat cometh
Do you ever use the chambered bar in your bench training?
Bonkers man, 🙏
u cant forget how insane john is
He's baaaack
11 weeks out from American Pro and already hitting 345kgs. Any ideas on what your opener would be?
Probably 410kg
It will likely be lower than that he will probably go for 320/345/365 (i think thats the world record pretty sure he will go for that) also john most often hits heavier weights in training than he does in the comp for squat
@@philipmeisterl But this time his squat was really deep.
Hey man had a question! Why did you only use belt and sleeves on ur top set?
The sleeves I have are really tight and kind of a pain to keep on for long periods of time. So I wait as long as I can to put them on.
The goat 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🐐🐐🐐
Besides Brian Shaw, the top strongmen all bench. Obviously doing strongman it takes a back seat to OHP but it shouldn't be ignored
what would you say helped you to get a stronger squat while doing strongman
YT missed you😊.
You got big asf bro!
Let’s get it!
During your strongman training what was your best stiff bar deadlift?
You were wearing the mic just in case words would suddenly appear?
What are you projecting for your squat at the end of this prep? Finally breaking 800?
Too early to say. If I can get my bench back to upper 500’s, I won’t need to push the squat nearly as much
ya bro. I ended up being a better incline bencher after strongman focus.
Flat bench sucked.
Man what shoes are those...
John "The American Pro" Haack
Kinged !
Are you gonna commit to 100kg or try stay at 90 ?
John, have you considered marrying and having kids with Jess Buettner? Your children would be literal superhumans.

For the Algorithm
I guess powerlifting pauses are pretty quick. Needless to say, impressive beyond belief.
cope
I mean he’s just trying to cut out any bounce at the bottom. There’s no need for him to sit in the hole longer

I have a feeling this is like the next larry wheels prodigy. I actually think he can put up bigger numbers if he keeps up the work
lol
He is really an underdog
bro tbh larry got nothing on this guy as far as achievments in their own weightclasses
Still not 800 pounds. Yawn.
The Ayran races weakest soldier
The fuck
im boutta go to the gym in my draws
👌🏻👍🏻💯
Haaackkkkkk🐐
