Taping ribs so they won't come out of his spine? I think that's more exaggerated than anything else. But why such an extreme to get to lift weights point for no money back around 2002 (assuming 20 yrs ago when Chuck was on top)
Juji's Strength n Power is the channel I didn't know 2021 needed 😄 That Brawny singlet looks ace on Joey! That intro of Chuck V. was highly appreciated! I never heard of the beast. 'Duct tape his ribs so they don't come out of his spine' . . some hardcore folklore right there! 🤘☠
I remember Dave Hoff mentioning about Chuck taking part in these "iron man" fights. The footage of the fights are actually stored on VHS tapes located at Westside Barbell, he was described to be extremely dominant in the cage to the point where some of his opponents refused to fight him. It would be a sight to see some of the footage.
I loved this, my legs hurt from watching. But seeing how you guys get together and torture each other just shows us all what real friendship is about. I love your videos, and a big part of that is having great people that tell great stories and share their experiences.
Or they were born in the early 2000 maybe. I remember all the t-nation articles back during that time. 25% of them seemed to use pictures of Chuck as stock images.
Thank you Juji for saying plaid and not flannel! Flannel is a fabric density and not a pattern, and you seem to have learned that at one point. Even though Joey has more of a double check pattern, close to a tartan pattern, still check patter is plaid so hurray for Juji having some fashion wisdom! I mean he always dresses pretty smooth so maybe that's what turned Sam's head in the beginning ?
Hey Jon and Sam, just wanted to thank you for your great videos and amazing content on here and on your Instagram, I have a question I suffer with quite bad arthritis in both knees being a larger gentleman I would like to know what are the best knee straps you can recommend to try and aid my workouts and my gentle movement throughout the day?

probably something that's a size up if you're going to wear them throughout the day, they'll cut off circulation long term if they're fit for training.

Never knew it was possible for people to squat for that many reps with that much weight. You got people doing Smolov stopping at 10 sets with 3 reps per set and they look as if they finished the workout, but these guys keep going. Way to make Squats an aerobic endurance exercise.
I worked out at Westside about 22yrs ago when I got my bench up to 550 with 2ply shirt and squat up to 850.thought I was it weight 250 lbs.boy was I wrong there were guys smaller doing more.lue at Westside is the absolute master at getting past sticking points, with unorthdized power exercises.
Awesome that Joey was in a Brawny Man style uni. After he started doing The Rock challenges lately I started referring to him as "The Paper" because paper beats rock.
LOved this! Chuck was one of the biggest motivational figures in the lifting world at one time or another. The man was intensity personified. I love watching some of his old Westside videos and his lifting videos. There aren't many of them out there, but when you see them it's like finding lifting gold!
Gonna try this (although with lower weight for me still being a puny human :/ ) on my own. Just gonna keep the timer up at 1 min for the first "section" and at 30 secs for the rest. Looks really fun!
Just watched the video of you interviewing the Mind Pump guys for a few questions.. Was wondering if you'd ever do another video with them or a podcast or something! keep up the good work Juji!
maybe i am doing squats the wrong way or i'm old 60 years old , all i know is everytime i hit squats i hurt something , but when that hurt heals up i feel way better than before , the thing is with squats is we all think we are doing just legs but its really everything , i love it ...
2:58 My gf is Romanian and she was born in 1970 so she cooks and vegetables from raw to pickled are at evry level in the fridge and pantry. I am always eating vegetables daily. And man, Dave's country kitchen britches got me craving blood sausage... is that weird?
Abdolutely beastly workout! 43 speed sets at my 1 rep max? Damn, I figured Joey would win, but that last set of 5? Holy crap! No shame Juji…. That was amazing.
That was the most brutal workout I have ever witnessed hands down!! Poor Juji man I was really feeling sorry for him when he had to do the front weighted torture walk😢 Juji you're a soldier for all things strength , health , & fitness!!
I hope you guys know that the birthday song is one the most expensive songs to put into a movie. That's why most movies sing some other version. I hope this video doesnt get claimed for that reason. You guys did a lot of hard work
Juji, I’m about as tall as Brian Shaw, do you have any advice for proper form with squats? It seems I can never find a comfortable foot position which allows me to get lower.
Not Juji, but I'm a good bit taller than him. For me, I have to stick my toes way out to the sides in order to hit any semblance of depth. Grab on to something and squat as deep as you can, then hold it for a minute. Do that every day so it becomes a position you're comfortable and balanced in.
Hey can someone give me advice, I lifted from age 15-30 using gear, then I got clean and I kept getting bulging discs (yeah I had good forum), my squat and deadlift suffered, now I'm 38 and I get bulging discs every time I squat even with 135#. So I'm curious, am I broken? Or do I just need to strengthen my lower back more?
Should see doctors/specialists about it, but educated guess from a random stranger is a bit of both is possible, might have some chronic problem and might need to strengthen back/core more. But its just random advice, so yeah. Physiotherapy maybe have good advice on how to work on activity.
@@99strength92 ... thanks for the reply. I just wish I knew if bulging/herniated discs are fixable or if my time lifting heavy has passed. I'd go to a doctor, but God knows they'll probably tell me bad news.

It’s basically a 45 minute EMOM. I don’t think I would last.
Yikes
I'll just dissociate from myself a bit and try this by my Self. Ouch ... if I actually meant that the way it came out, that would mean 86 sets.
Maybe not safe. Don't wanna have a stroke you know...

“We had to duct tape his ribs, so they wouldn’t come out of his spine”. That’s actually insane.
Real question: Is squatting with duct-tape considered raw?
@@MollymaukT cheating 😂

Late 90s, early 2000’s powerlifting was akin to Group B rally racing. Spud, Chuck, Dave, everyone from that period would be considered insane today.
Very well said. Absolutely love this
Great analogy! Only wish more people knew about group B rally car racing lmao.

Joey we aren't dead yet. We'll find a workout that will kill us some day. Let's keep looking.
He does it because everyone else refuses to answer the phone. You're a glutton for punishment
Woahhhhh at 2:15 that country kitchen is the Callaway Gardens country store in Pine Mountain Ga. Literally 10 minutes from my house. Small world!
Chuck was amazing. This is my favorite juji content, doing these inspired workouts.
Only idiots have forgotten about Chuck. He's a big reason why I started training in the first place.

Finally somebody who sheds some light on Chuck. He’s my favorite powerlifter
Chucks legend just grows with every passing year. More so after the westside doc

Dave Tate at all times seems like he's bored of all shenanigans and just wants to lift
That’s Dave.
the world needs people like you Sir JUJIMUFU! to remind us what greatness is even if the man dont like talkin!
Only Joey would get 42 sets in and pull out a set of 6😂
This is awesome! This is the kind of stuff that I want to do with a friend lol.
Awesome that Joey was in a Brawny Man style uni. After he started doing The Rock challenges lately I started referring to him as "The Paper" because paper beats rock.
I remember seeing his cover on pl USA magazine. You could feel the intensity radiating through the image.
"We could still be there" 🤣🤣🤣
You guys need to get somebody to animate the story of this workout to Daves voice as he told it in there.

GOAT Vogelpohl and his endless lat pull downs and fire beanie.. respect!
I was lucky enough to train a few times at Westside in the mid-late 90's-Chuck was the strongest!!!
love that you shine some light on this man ! I used to admire him and try to be like him
Super positive energy throughout this whole video, I loved this one
"That" normal day at Westside is legendary in the powerlifting world to this day.
That effort deserved a subscription. Damn dude. Thanks for the motivation.

Ngl, I would absolutely love to hear some more details about the ductaped ribs story ._.
The Spaceballs reference !!! Love it
You didn't beat Joey, but you beat Dave's old 40 record.
But dave did it with 405
Only a guy like chuck could inspire a workout as METAL as this. Congrats on surviving guys!
I wanna see you and Joey do a strongman Litvinov. Tire flips superset with big chain or heavy sled back drag.
I love the stuff with Dave!
"We never teleported so we must of driven here" has me dead.

Great video Juji those greens to go is an excellent idea. Like when you're traveling or if you don't like to eat your veggies.

I don't ever comment but this was so entertaining.

Although i dont like equiped powerlifting i love chuck
You could do some awesome videos on power lifting and bodybuilding history
These are the greatest videos on TH-cam.
Motivation Station baby!
Thats is are attidude whit old times in westside...mental masters!!
Dave is like the dad that is annoyed the boys won't just hurry up
Great video thank you brother! ☺♥
