Linear progression probably won't last that long to be Frank. Now I'm sure that he can at least get his press to 800 maybe 1000 pounds which is already very impressive. To be honest 405 which he did is already better than most to be Frank's. But eventually progress slows down. Imo...I tink da chase will get to a 450 press maybe 475. That is my guess. He is a coach now so I'm sure he is focusing less on his own training and more on hims students. Hope dis one makes scene
@@FlatpickmasteryThis has to be the dumbest comment I've ever seen. Nobody in the world can press 800-1000lbs lol. And nobody will. Even 405 is extremely rare and straight up impossible for most people.
Rip hims is hims coaches so him speaks a lot he the master powers lift guy da mark rip okay. He actually coached chase and teach him all dis no lie bruh. He there since the beginning. Him training people like 40 years now exaggerating. He knows his stuff you no. Just look mark rip up. He training people since the 1980s haha what daaaa
Can't believe Chase is only 22 and this strong and an SS coach, 3 years younger than me. I wish I could have started SS when I was an adolescent. Still an inspiration!
What's amazing is Chase isn't even really that big yet even at 242. He has so much room to grow and so much potential. Will do 500 soon. Keep going Chase.
One of the best podcasts yet. The kids a monster. He’s gonna get even stronger. And he conducts himself like an actual adult. Just wait until a couple yrs when he decides to get on the gas... lol
After his arms were straight..the hip strength required to stand up straight with 405 is impressive..his girlfriend must be proud. A very impressive show of strength and hip thrust.
Good show. So, I looked it up and I was probably in Brownwood the same time Chase was. My mother lived her last years in Brownwood and I was back and forth between here and there for about a year, settling her affairs after she passed. I found Starting Strength shortly thereafter. Small world for such a big world.

I read the article about the press in the Olympics on the website. Long story short. The stricter and slower the press. The harder it is to bribe or trick judges. Also the longer it takes to make the number over your head go up in the case of the heroes on deck actually trying to outlift each other. I like that the one thing that was agreed upon all the way to the end was that the press was the true strength test. The clean and jerk and snatch were seen as athletic tests. When the press was dropped from the Olympics, the public started caring more about powerlifting and bodybuilding. That's the only place left where the biggest and strongest people compete.
Really excited to see what Chase can get his press to. He got to 405 for this competition and seems to have been maligning consistent progress. 450 wouldn’t surprise me. 405 will be flawless by the next meet
Post your video champ and show us all how it is done. There is no obstacle now - everyone owns a phone, an internet connection etc. Start small, say a 120 kg press by the book as you see it and we can judge. Looking forward to it!
Unbelievable strength. How, with no ‘bench’ under his back, can this man lift that much weight? How does he not fall over!!!?? I mean... Unreal. And, nice a hell. Humble. See he DIDNT learn to be a grump like mr rippatoe.
I just want to pass on my congratulations to Chase and of course to Rip and the Starting Strength team or should I say family. As I struggle to get my feeble overhead press over 85 kgs, I watched his 184kg lift and felt a shrinking feeling in my soul (let's just call it that). However that is the normal reaction when I see something that awesome and unattainable. Also great work on the podcast, not only are his lifts going up but you are also building his confidence and that shows everything people should know about Starting Strength :) - the lad has great character as well as monster lifts!
SS Trains: Bench, Press, Bench OR Press, Bench, Press This is their alternating Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule. ..Then chase performs a press at 405lbs, like he is Pressing, Benching, Pressing. People are surprised.
Question: won't the bar dip a bit downwards every time there's a double layback? Just because of the way you will move and the shift during that movement??
Thank you so much for explaining and expressing the process from the warmup room to the platform and everything leading up to that point. Alot of these idiots in the comment section will understand the pure thrill of accomplishment that brings to ones self. Inspiring for my own overhead press progress
Great conversation, lot of useful information! Question: is the "double layback" during the press that you discuss an unsafe position for the spine? Or is it just something that you learn as you get stronger at the lifts? I imagine the complaints about it usually claim it is not safe for the back.
From a NOVICE: My wife told me that in teaching new people gymnastics the hardest thing for them to get over is their head going backwards. Could be new lifters may just not be comfortable leaning back with weight.
I don't think that anyone that criticises the lean on the press thinks they could do it if they could lean back like that. Not one person he read out even claimed it made it easier.
it's inherent in the claim. If you complain about the lift not being an actual press it means you think it's cheating, which means you think it's easier than it would be otherwise. Why would you claim that if you don't believe you could do it? Unless you're a moron, which these people are. I don't care how much knowledge you think you have, if you're pressing 185lbs you don't get to criticize someone who presses 405lbs, unless you're a SS coach, but even then it's hard to do. These are all people that are not strong, so they want to find excuses for it instead of training and getting stronger.
@@Francesco-cj3oi I agree that it's pretty obvious they're implying it's easier to do it leaning back than standing straight up, but of course there's reason to question form even if you couldn't do it yourself. It sounds like a lot of deflection to me. If Usain Bolt starts running before the starter pistol and you disqualify him, are you saying you could run a sub-10? Isn't it enough that you have eyes and ears and can tell it was a false start? When Rip is calling out powerlifting federations for not judging depth, is he saying he could quarter-squat whatever ridiculous > 1000lb weights those guys are doing? Either the lean-back is okay or it isn't, doesn't matter who judges it. And if it's okay, then that's all you need to say.
@@Francesco-cj3oi I think most people would lack the flexibility to even contort their body in that position. His upper body is nearly at a 45 degree angle at one point. How many people do you know that can do that? If you don't like the word cheating then let's call it an "assisted" press. If someone is capable of getting in that position than it WILL help them get the weight up. Otherwise, why not lift the same weight using a strict press without arching?
Well, if you don't bend the excessive width is not a problem. But if you are to have one belt that you use for deadlifting as well, 3" is a way to go. I'm learning it the hard way since I bought 4" belt.. I used box cutter to shave edges from it (it's vinyl, not real leather), but it's still inconvenient.
28:20 - Rip is wrong about Olympics medals, but hopefully he'll be happy to hear that they only award medals for the total weight. The IWF World Championships, on the other hand, does award medals for each lift and the total.
I once ate an entire large pepperoni pizza for breakfast. By myself. Bystanders could hardly believe what they saw. But years of training went into it.
At the Worlds and Continental competitions, a medal is awarded for each lift (Snatch, Clean & Jerk and the Total). At the Olympcs, medals are just awarded for the total.
I love that Rip tries to not act like a proud dad but it’s so obvious
Exactly! He totally behaves like Chase's surogate father. It's sweet :)
@@kwastek 1:02:00 = Rip’s heart starts coming out his eyes. :)
Such a good point ha
I mean, shit i don't blame him at all lol
Ok, I've done the linear progression math and by the time he's 40, Chase will be pressing 8792 lbs. 📈
And he will be leaning back at a 170 degree angle to do so
@@spaceghost0813 I think at that angle the weight will no longer be a problem :D unless he planned to straighten up with it :D
