"Leave the gym with a pump, go visit the grocery store, get yourself a date." words to live by
Unna bro
Sounds like jealous LT Compton Ca
Bruh the pump is going to be gone by the time you get to the store
"Percentages don't even make sense to me" from the strongest bencher of all time. What the fuck, lol.
I been sayin that for years
supertraining06 Does this apply only to advanced lifters? I think beginners and intermediates might benefit from following a program, with or without percentages.
6reps Programs are good to get an understanding for what works but you don't have to follow them strictly. Bar speed and volume are more important than anything when training for strenght in my humble opinion.
Everyone is different. I don't use percentages either because I know that I am better at repping squats then bench. Say a program calls for 85% triple, this would be a joke for me on squats but overly difficult on bench. I know myself better than set percentages and I'll always adjust to that so instead of doing 85% for a triple on squat I'll do like 90% and do like 80% on bench. I don't count these 90 and 80% though as I always just go by feel and experience of what I am capable of.
Guerra de Ferro Gym If you're gay, yes.
I am seriously so fucking happy i found this channel over a year ago.
Helped me in my lifting immensly.
1735 total raw w/o Wraps.
That's great
Fuckin aye bro same here.. that's awesome btw, at what body weight bro?
kainoizking currently 138kg so i guess 305?
Royce Krueger that's really nice mate.just keep pushing!!
+Royce Krueger unheard of cause i didn't happen lolz
When you were talking about the construction guys lifting after work, I used to lift with a guy who delivered dry wall and benched 505 for 2 reps after a long day of work. Those construction guys are beasts!
"Strength is gonna carry you through everything." -Eric Spoto 16:23
So far you've got
Chris duffin king of squats
Eric spoto king of bench
Omar assmuff king of no calves
Get Pete rubbish king of deadlifts next.
Thumbs up for Pete rubish
*george leeman
George leeman is king of deadlifts , guy.
National Health Institute Ed Hall would *technically* be king of deadlifts but whatever
danohrly he used straps, george uses hookgrip
Not a single bald head was seen that day.
I love your videos guys . I was recently diagnosed with Leukemia and went through it all ,chemo, radiation and also a bone marrow transplant. I was never in the best of shape but was always a lifter and strong. After everything I went through / still going through, I got sooo fat and out of shape all the way up to 300+lbs. I've been working out and doing a lot of cardio and and feeling better also down to 268 lbs in a month . I just like the way you all interact with each other. It reminds me of working out with the boys in football/baseball/basketball or the bouncers at the clubs lol. You bust balls but incourage as well, I love it . I'm rambling I know . I just want to say thanks super training.
Stay strong bro
Hope you're doing better bud
Hope you’re fine right now, keep up the work
Great Mind Set bro hope you’re doing better now
I don't even powerlift but I love the vids over the last few months
Thank you so much
supertraining06 hey Mark can you do a vid how to train while u recover from injuries? ? I have one of my hamstring bother me for a least 3 month now I can still do everything but my weight on the squat have reduce I don't feel comfortable squatting heavy
hahaha yes!!!!
im not a line dancer but i still watch your videos is like an awesome compliment!!
life goals : Have Mark Bell personally scoop me up at the airport then take me to his dojo and swag me out in Slingshot gear. Make a Wish Foundation fantasy lol
Son of a bitch. Wish I knew Spoto's arm wrestling tips before going down to California.
Hey Omar, who has bigger calves, Silent Mike or you?
David Sourdis They suck equally as much. Though I have the same or even worse calves than them. To be honest though I think Silent Mike might have bigger calves?
ReMarig00o yeah he does
What happened yo his pinky on his left hand?....Snapcity?
Others have said it but it would be cool to get george leeman out to supertraining sometime
hbk4eva1 He did the backyard meet of the century.
hbk4eva1 hell yeah dudewould be fucking awesome!
Eddie hall :)
He just announced it today, Leeman is coming!
+hbk4eva1 The one dude I would love to see there too, is John Broz.
Been loving all of the frequent videos that have topics across the mat. Keep 'em coming! It shows that you're putting a lot of work into this channel, and this is why I support slingshot products!
Amazing content!! Thanks a lot mark, eric and silent mike
Been waiting for this vid! Love it!
priceless information in this video
Awesome content guys-these videos are fantastic. Inspiring the world and opening powerlifting to the world. Major mainstream appeal
Another excellent video, extremely informative and simple to apply.
Great video! Thanks for all the other videos too, it's amazing that these elite athletes are putting out so much content to the general public. You wouldn't find athletes from other sports doing it, especially not the elite.
The vids just keep on getting better, both in content and production. I really loved the ending with Eric's quote, nice :D
love the stuff you are putting out.
Amazing content as always!
I miss this Mark Bell. The one that actually cared about powerlifters
matt r f
Now he's just pushing his own shitty carnivore diet and making money. I rarely watch his current videos because of the nobody novices in his gym these days
Awsome video! Love spoto more videos with him! Keep em coming
Spoto has no secrets this dude is just crazy fucking strong
Love the amazing content you guys put out !!!!
Eric is a monster
Always great content, Smelly. Theres not many channels on youtube that I actually enjoy watching
I love these shows, very informative!!
Great vid. Like that you included the entire workout
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Great video. Very motivational and informative.
best fitness channel on youtube hands down.
This recent series of video's has been amazing.
Best powerlifitng advice!
This--> "I want to feel like i left the gym doing something better than i did the last time". Love it.
Great job to notice and highlight that phrase supertraining06
I would add this: "I want to leave the gym feeling that i give it all"
Very insightful video, awesome!!!!!
I love this video, thanks!
Recently got bk into it, and my youbger cousin just put me on ur slingshot product. Man in a short 6 weeks my bench has gone up immensely. Id like to get something to kinda help around the elbows to maximize my training injury free...Keep up the good work fellas..
Great video, this is awesome.
Love the long vids
love the longer vids type docos
When did this become the best lifting channel on youtube? I'm not a powerlifter but wow , keep it up! regards from South Africa
Great vid guys! Spoto is a big dude.
Great video!
That was an excellent video guys
What a legend love the video 💪
"feels like crossfit" I can't lolol
How does this apply to crossfit. I need to do some hand stand push ups and then run a hundred yard dash wearing a dress and heels. This information is useless.
mark your slingshot is a gamechanger. my bench press has finally stopped plateuing and i have gotten over the 185lb mark for reps. now i hit my year goal of repping 225 for 8. thank you
What slingshot did you get ? Mark recommends that if you bench under 225 or 315 to get the blue one but i am very hesitant whether not to buy the red one... I am benching 198 3x5 and then 185 2x5 cuz i am doing 5x5 on the bench.
This has to be the best channel on TH-cam...
Awesome content
Like Mark said in other video its not so much the speed but the control and ease that Spoto has benching. Almost like poetry in motion.
This is def the best channel. Would be cool to get some George leeman up in supertraining, very great guy.
Loving the 60 FPS! Especially when there is lifting going down. It's a noticeable difference
Great videos
Love your channel! I liked what spoto had to say about percentages. I try to train like the old timers trained, trying to add a rep or 5-10.lbs of weight to each Exercise every week. Like the Bosco system of progression.You have great guests on your videos, I'd like to see Brooks D. Kubik as a guest on one of your videos. Again, I enjoy your show and will continue to watch in the future.
adding just a rep every week goes a long way. a great way to progress rather than over adding weight and being stuck
Why do my chest and shoulders get pumped just listening to Eric Spoto talk about benching. Side note: nothing else gets swollen.....
I'd hate to be the guy sitting next to spoto on the plane. No room at all.
Check the video of brian Shaw on a plane
Nick Bates If it was a fat guy I'd be pissed as well. If I saw spoto next to me on a plane.. oh my god. I'd ask him so many questions regarding everything that even a 24 hour plane trip would feel like 2 minutes literally. Poor spoto though! XD
Cody Long yeah I've seen it lol spoto looks wider than shaw in my opinion. Probably cuz shaw is alot taller. But I'm pretty big myself and wouldn't wanna be stuck sitting next to either!
Nick Bates your the size of brian shaws arm you scrawny fuck
shane slaine lmfao what are you so mad for? I'm 6'1, 280 lbs. Not exactly what I would call scrawny but hey whatever floats your boat, guy with no profile picture! :)
I wish i could work out with them. They are my Idols!!
Great vid
I remember this guy from the gym in Sachem North. Wow. Crazy.
eric spoto is very knowledgeable and humble, and ed coan loves him too
What I found with bench is that getting a overall stronger body helps you a lot because it helps you get tighter and can exhaust more power in my push.
Great vid and great new channel I just found ....I met Eric at the rich pina BW for reps challenge he was one of the judges ...awesome experiance ..I also took 1st place at that bench press contest and took home $2200 :)
Great collab vids lately. I'd love to see you guys do a deadlifting vid like this with Eddie Hall.
5:05 his triceps are HUGE
Arthur Rotter they are huge but the aids fisheye lens distorts them to make it look even bigger.
Cool explanation video
Really cool
GOTTA Get Eric Spoto out to Iron Addicts Gym June 20th for our event, great guy all around
Mark 405 for 3 now well over 500 for 3 in 5 months crazy shit
I noticed the same thing. I respect Mark...but come on.....he was taking more sauce to get to 500 for reps.
God damn this ain't no regular dude.
Spoto is a freak of nature, he is literally built to bench. Guy has like a 2 inch bar path with full rom.
“percentages don’t make sense to me”
mark bell and and mike cried
i fucking love these videos!!!
Hey Mark, when are those yellow sleeves going to be available?
Content is off the hook!!!
Mark Bell and Silent Mike and the SuperTrainning Gym. You all need to come over to Abu Dhabi and sell your Slingshots gear. You guys are my inspiration. I started Powerlifting because of Vids and special guest. My whole body and Mind is so strong and confident. Due to you Mark Bell. Thank you.
Kel from New Zealand who resides in Abu Dhabi UAE!
He has a website
Jim! how is spoto doing? when is he returning to the platform?
What are those complete arm sleeves they wearing? Are those for sale on the website?
awesome video dudes :) thx
Learned tons from watching you mark supertraining06 might even do a meet with this knew found strength
Y'all should invite Scot Mendelson and Tiny Meeker to come at Supertraining!
my favorite part of every supertraining vid are the onnit commercials
Where can we purchase them there compression sleeves that Mark and Mike are wearing?
So you do 6-8 sets with high reps on the bench for a cycle. When you go heavier and lower reps do you keep those sets the same or limit it to less sets to focus on lifting the most weight possible.
Look at those fucking triceps. Fuck how much he benches, I am mirin those triceps you got there Eric.
What are all the benefits of the bamboo bar? I have heard of it, but never actually used one.
Question: I tore my pec real bad (San Diego Chargers Doc said it looked like someone just filet my left pec major in the muscle belly and unlike most pec tears where it comes at the insertion) . I recovered over time, starting benching soup cans, got back to 405 (was at 500 lbs) but after 405 it felt like little piano strings in my pec were snapping (probably scar tissue). Ok, so I can't do weighted dips (loved them) because I tore me pec doing reverse grip declines (repping 365) and dips are too close to that position for my pec. Do you have any advice for a guy who can't do weighted dips, nor decline reverse grips for triceps. I already do skull crushers and and heavy pull downs (cable). I have also had three shoulder surgeries and am now 51 yrs. old. Still in good shape, but took a long time off lifting and I am only back at 275 max after 3 months of training. Just wondered how you delt with older clients and in my situation. I know that is a big ask and maybe you can't really answer it, but just in case something pops into your mind (besides, give it up old man) :-) ... I'd be grateful.
where can I find those yellow arm sleeves?
How often would I do this routine per week? Thanks!
yo mark what model of iso-lateral row do you just?
@MarkBell...Hey Mark. When you have some time check out another East Coast guy named Glenn Chabot from Springfield Massachusetts... with all due respect Glen Bench pressed 722 about 10 yrs before Eric got it (taking nothing from Erics achievements and the fact that he's a tremendous athlete and an even humbler guy. He's always in the top five of heavy bench pressers world records of all time. Usually hanging around the two or three mark for the past year or two).. Glenn got 722 unassisted and raw at a body weight of 277 lb. What's even more insane as his benching technique did not involve any huge drawbridge back-bending, or a giant raised up chest, just pure power. If you check out his videos he seems to be one of the most technically perfect bench pressers when it comes to Raw strength I personally believe of all time to date...do some research on him when you look at a little free time during your busy schedule. Congrats on your videos and shows very impressive very informative and very professional. Word has it that Woodglen shavitz bench-press of 722 at a body weight of 277. It took nearly 14 years for Vasily that giant Russian who did a 739 lb WR.and was 68 lbs heavier than Chabot(just fyi/fun facts)..i spoke with Glen about 2months ago and he is training again and has a Particular goal regarding bench press that he will not yet disclose..luv your work, and continued success Mark
Where can we find his videos?
where can we get those yellow compression sleeves?
James Henderson was raw no shirt no wraps no sling shot nothing but pure power!
Finally someone says it. I try to hit volume prs every workout but ppl keep saying stick to program.. fuck all that
I wanna see a mark bell plays guitar video after that warmup
Hi. I need some advice. I workout at home. I've just changed bench and I'm struggling with bench press. It feels awkward and the stands seem to get in the way on wide grip. I'm using a 6ft standard barbell with 2 x 20kg metal plates,the rest are plastic. Barbell weighs 8kg and the weights total 92kg. I can't seem to ground my feet and i just don't feel strong on the bench.
My absolute favorite bench presser is BIG E. always a dan always will be
Did he say how many reps he did of 225? I watched the video when it was new and thought I heard it but now can't find it?
this dude has like 25 inch arms wtff
Eric is a god. Thanks for the upload
