Would you guys consider doing a critique of some popular squat programs, eg the Russian/ Soviet squat program, madcow, Smolov etc. would be great to know what the pros/ cons are of these methods and their applicability in different circumstances.
@@andreabarone4964 They talk about the russian squat program and smolov in their video "S&C Coaches Discuss Top 3 Most Dangerous & Misapplied Training Methods!" And im sure based off that title you can figure out what they think of it
@@matthewmckee6289 not saying it’s for everybody but I’m natty and went from 160kg-190kg on smolov. Just started drinking a gallon of whole milk on days I trained to aid in recovery and I survived and in a weird way enjoyed it 😂
I notice those type of questions and mindsets a lot..comparing your training to the top. They didn't get to the top because of that training. They made their way up there because of who they are and now train like that. I'm sure lasha or lu has enough leg power to set a new wr. So they aren't doing a difficult 5x5 twice a week at 95% relative intensity. They're maintaining to be able to do what's important, Olympic weightlifting
Hey, so this might be a bit too specific/theoretical to give a good answer, but: If you had two groups of lifters, one trains 5x5, the other 5x3, both advancing 5lbs each session (assuming completion of all reps), both training twice per week, who do you expect to have the better increase in 1RM over different time periods (6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, whatever)? If we changed this to 5x5 vs 8x3, how do you think this would change the results? Thanks for the sweey content! 🙏 Lookin swole, my dudes
I got great gains running 5x5 from 240 to 300. I also got terrible shoulder pain. I not sure pounding out 5x5s for weeks is to smart. Got to shake it up.
@@getstrongby4038 well its certainly the case that some nations lifters get tested much more strictly/frequently. doesnt make them clean but gives them a disadvantage certainly
@@orlandoswift7398 oh yeah i hear you, but look at the iwf corruption, could easily have been a biased (or bribed) official providing the documentation
I currently squat with volume & intensity for 2 times a week and just have light weight and less reps/sets on my "off days" because "makes hip feel gud" ~ leading to 3-4 serious training days a week and 6 total somewhat training days a week with rehab/technical work and stuff like that
I personally have tried squat every day. As a weightlifting itermidiate and I personally never got stronger at all. It mostly just caused knee pain and fatigue.
Most I’ve done was 3 days but it was varaiations for each day. 1 day of high bar, 1 day of front squat, and 1 day of low bar and the volume was pretty low each session (2-4 sets each day). Doing the same lift 3 days a week is a recipe for stalling.
Just one question about your squat program. Do you just do accessories on the day 1 of squat , or are those accessories for both squat sessions ? Great to know before i start the program next week 😍🤩 exited !
I think whoever wants to be a good competitive weightlifter, needs to squat more than 2 times per week. My younger brother was training weightlifting at sport's school in Bulgaria since the age of 12 and they had either front or back squat each day.
Please release the clip of you talking about Clarence as a stand alone with his name in the title so more people see it, more people need to be told that they aren't Clarence
Depends I suppose. Lasha just back squats and shi shyong does only front squat. The two highest ranked male athletes. But a mix of both is recommended for specificity and strength
Technically yes but your entering the close to impossible zone but by the time you get your snatch closer to your 100 your 100 would become a 110. Consider it impossible to have your snatch the same as your squat
@@getstrongby4038 well with the 100 squat you could say that you are still growing fast and maybe outweigh the squat bc your routine is weird af like mine was when i outsnatched my clean and jerk, but still to get either at your squat is a joke especially when your squat is 175 no way your upper could support 175 overhead now at a 175 squat
@@getstrongby4038 Very good efficiency is probably around 65%, any higher and it’s excellent efficiency. I don’t know exactly, but I would say not many people at all would be able to snatch above 70% of their squat. Average person is probably able to snatch about 60% of their squat. But just to preface, that’s just generalisations. There are many other factors that can make big impacts.
@@Prodbybah patience....start with 5 x 10s for 40 perhaps? work on technique....take your time....enjoy the process....work on back strength front squats and trunk / abs tension....deadlift and back extensions for accessories :) allow for 2 - 10 years to hit 200 - squat 1 - 3 times per week :)
also the thing about clarence being relatable is so true it's crazy how people think he is average
The man is literally the top 1% of the top 1%.
The more I learn about Clarence the more I realize that I'm Boros and he is Saitama
Well...let's not completely rule out the possibility that you're viewers might not have a social life or career or family or...
Yep use to lift 6x a week just cause for my mental health and had nothing to do soemtimes, had to look inwards and figure thats not the best rounte
…or lots of money to buy lots of drugs.

So what you're saying is, we can all be Clarence Kennedy if we squat 5x a week?
you still need to stop eating meat and get the same pair of glasses to do that.
and we also have to be fully natty
He has been healed for years. Eating meat like a chad.
@@archerjoii3673 dont forget the watch, sweat pants rolled up to look like shorts and the white shirt
Finally someone gets it!
I stopped squating everyday, no more ouchies like knee tendonitis and squated 240 kg 3×3 highbar today. Thanks for all the good info lads
me only twice a week lol
how d you get to 240 lad? any hot tips?
So you're saying I should just copy everything Clarence does. Got it.
exactly!

Well Smolov itself is made for athletes doped up to the gills, so you can probably have a guess.

Hey lads. Are you guys doing commentary for the olympic sessions?
I’m pretty sure a lot of the Olympic stuff gets flagged and taken down on TH-cam, so I would say no probably not.
Do weightlifters have to do back squats? Or can I just do front squats?
Depends I suppose. Lasha just back squats and shi shyong does only front squat. The two highest ranked male athletes. But a mix of both is recommended for specificity and strength
The only reason to squat every day is if you like squatting.
