If you’re into old time strongmen in addition to Hermann Goerner check out Arthur Saxon, Angus MacAskill and Louis Cyr. Honorable mentions to Pyotor Krylov, Gregg Ernst, Paul Anderson and Georg Hackenschmidt.
@@stefhirsch6922 do you have any channel recommendations? I've been getting into learning about the pre testosterone era of fitness. What they are capable of is pretty amazing. Some of those dudes look sauced out, but they definitely were not.
@@travisoutlaw9511 are you looking for historical information, wanting to train like them? Actual historically accurate (as close as possible with generally available knowledge) or looking to adapt some of their principles into your current training? Personally when figuring out my own training program I consider what I’m trying to accomplish out of a given exercise and if another exercise would be more effective? Or a higher carryover to my life/sport. As well as if another exercise would be able to accomplish said goals with a lower likelihood of injury. For example chest flys and bench press are comparably effective at chest development but flys are more likely to strain the subclavius as well as coracobrachialis (small muscles under the upper pec by the collarbone). That would make bench press a superior choice to flys. I like push press, standing press side press and get-ups but I don’t see a benefit to bent press in terms of muscular development to the previous options. Spines can handle a decent amount of strain in hinge motions such as deadlift, kettlebell swings and cleans but loads while doing a side bend or bending with a twist are how discs are blown out. Bent press does both at the same time. Typically our discs go bad through either bending over with a twist or accumulated bad posture. It’s typical that they seem fine until they’re not. Some people are more susceptible to disc injuries (or other injuries such as knees or shoulders) than others. The only way to tell is rolling the dice and finding out. As far as video channel recommendations I really like Dan John, Lebe Stark and Steve Cotter. Brian Ashruhle (not sure of the spelling), Redifining strength, Allan Thrall and Elliot Hulse/strengthcamp (he’s apparently said some off the deep end sexist crap but his training info is good) are also worth looking at. I will add “squat university “ to the list. If you can working with a very experienced trainer who been in the strength game for many decades is recommended. Or if you know old lifters (likely 60+) that have been at it a long time to train with/pick the brains of are also gold. If you’re in Los Angeles my buddy Tom Magee is a fountain of knowledge (Mr British Columbia for bodybuilding, set multiple Canadian National records for weightlifting, 2x world champion powerlifter heavyweight + 1x world champ super heavyweight, multi time finalist in worlds strongest man set a few strongman records too…). He’s still at it - no longer jacked muscle dude but has been steeped in physical culture without stop for 40+ years. Tom isn’t an expert in kettlebells but other strength training from strongman lifts to barbells is very knowledgeable. Odd Haugen is another guy to look up. When it comes to bending metal Dennis rogers is the man.
This is the first clear video where I've seen lifts from the physical culture era of 100 years ago, as written by Thomas Inch and Arthur Saxon, which used to be training and holiday buddies!
Good video, Eric Bugenhagen got me interested in the old time lifts and the benefits of them but I like how your doing you whole workout based on them I hope more people check out your channel cause this is good info.
watching your videos a year ago inspired me to switch to old school lifts mostly, i been deadlifting every training session for like 53 days, in all sorts of weights and variations, most variations hitting legs, but training for conventional numbers, about 30 pounds off from 3x bodyweight, being at 180lbs rn. jefferson curls, zercher jerfferson curls, every variation of possible. every training session, my body's mechanism has improved million and my strenght within a short period of time. you are changing lives.
Been waiting on a video like this man! Super strong, super well rounded, and proof of what kind of sick physique these lifts can build. Great info. Future of this genre of lifting and keeping the history alive
During quarantine, I got really familiar with barbell floor presses and barbell hack squats, and heavy barbell rows and behind the neck presses. Only had a barbell and some plates. One of my best training years ever. I actually kind of miss that program.
This is great. Hopefully over time more people take up this style of training and we can really verify just how much better it is than typical training for naturals
STORY TIME‼️ I injured my wrist doing ohp and decided to take it as an opportunity to try out zerchers and other odd lifts. Even while cutting I'm getting more STACKED and JACKED and DENSE. TRY ODD LIFTS‼️
Matt Wenning talks about the importance of rotating lifts and having a large "Exercise Library" to avoid cumulative fatigue and also to stave off the law of accomodation As a advanced lifter you lose the maximum adaptation from doing a lift after doing it for one mesocycle and once you're advanced enough maybe even 1-2 weeks So hy rotating many exercises you get to hammer the same muscles from all angles and also offset diminishing returns and cumulative fatigue. Win, win, win situation
Very cool vid dude. Your lifts rock, love seeing em pop up in my feed. Some of this shit is so nuts to see, I’m gonna have to start incorporating it into my own training. Keep posting!
What a great video.Makes traditional training look totally boring.Keep making videos so everybody who is stuck in lifting rut can see the value of incorporating some of this in their own routine
My #1 is "Super Strength" by Alan Calvert. Very well written overview of lifting in the 20s. Also "the Super Athletes" by David Willoughby just for an idea of the sheer variety of lifts that were performed, with absolutely no how-to. Both of Arthur Saxon's books are worth a read, if Very short.
What shoes are you wearing? Look like Vibram fivefingers. How do you like them for training? Been considering a pair since I like being barefoot, but need a solid minimalist training/hiking shoe
Very impressive mobility work but I have to say, what you're talking about in the video does sound a bit like what Joel Seedman suggests: Unconventional lifts that put you in less stable positions. I just don't see why I should include those over the tried and true "normal" lifts we have.
Hey man, I think this might be dumb question to ask. I primarily like kettlebells for my training along with basic BW stuff (pushups, Pullups and dips). Can I expect a good deal of growth and strength all these lifts you stated in this video with heavy kettlebells?
Heavy kettlebells are just as good at building mass as heavy dumbbells. Cleans, presses, squats/lunges (of all of the variations back lunge, split squat, front squat, front/rear/both foot/feet elevated split squats…), loaded carries, get-ups… are all excellent at building strength and mass. Assuming that you have a solid foundation of strength training a combination of heavy sets of 1-5 reps and lighter work of 8+ are going to deliver results. I don’t recommend that beginners lift weights so heavy that they can’t do at least 8 repetitions with good form until they have spent at least 6 months consistently lifting sets of 8-20+ reps to condition their connective tissues. I’m really happy with my competition style adjustable kettlebells that go from 26lb/12kg-70lb/32kg are what i use the most. I haven’t found any decent adjustable kettlebells heavier than 70lb/32kg so it requires collecting a number of heavy fixed weights.

700lb one handed deadlift as an old school Natty might be one of the coolest things I've heard about this year. Already digging this channel.

Looks like lot more fun than a typical gym session!

6:18 is the most gangsta shit I’ve ever seen in my life Jesus Christ, crazy good stuff bro
They're a lot of fun and give a really unique leg exercise. The plates are tall enough I'd be safe if it fell.
Great video and introduction, big fan of the channel
Just found your channel. Love what you're doing.
Very cool vid dude. Your lifts rock, love seeing em pop up in my feed. Some of this shit is so nuts to see, I’m gonna have to start incorporating it into my own training. Keep posting!
Glad to hear it!
Everything this dude said makes perfect sense. Roid monkeys pop tendons like crazy so they can't do these lifts but a natural should have no fear.
What a great video.Makes traditional training look totally boring.Keep making videos so everybody who is stuck in lifting rut can see the value of incorporating some of this in their own routine
I will, thank you!
That's a hell of a ring row pushup you're doing at 10:18
Damn!! You are tough!
My modo is; do whatever you enjoy doing, that will ensure that you keep doing it.
Where are you located? Looks like SoCal or Florida
Socal. And I do enjoy this. I think more people would if they tried it.
Great video. Earned yourself a subscriber. Keep up the great work
This is great stuff.
Awesome but where is the vid on how the aviator sunglasses, tight jeans, lo rise trainers & naked upper torso fit in.
Are u gonna get balanced muscle growth with crooked muscle ups
No.
Great content man! Just came across your channel! Gave you a like and a sub!
Thanks!
Any idea as to where i can find more info on this type of training, any cool books you know of?

What is that bridge bench press exercise called??
If you constantly change lifts, how are you going to learn how to do them?
because isis not an infinitte list of lifts
Nice
What shoes are you wearing? Look like Vibram fivefingers. How do you like them for training? Been considering a pair since I like being barefoot, but need a solid minimalist training/hiking shoe
Do you have any advice on programming or rep schemes? What does your typically weekly workout routine look like? TIA.
Push-pull-legs with on a M-W-F type format? How may exercises per session? Work up to 1 top set? How often do you rotate exercises?
Very impressive mobility work but I have to say, what you're talking about in the video does sound a bit like what Joel Seedman suggests: Unconventional lifts that put you in less stable positions.

Kettlebells are an awesome tool if used properly, definitely!
