Much love from a Canadian Powerlifter! Awesome stuff can’t wait for the Deadlift video! Would be cool if you could cover deadlift advice/variations to help lifters with shorter arms and longer torsos! Been struggling with deadlifts for years now!
Hey man I was wondering if youd do a video of how to warm up for the big 3, especially sumo deadlift as I use to do a lot of static stretching for warmups but idk if that's great now becuase of what some people have said
Noted, I will keep that in mind! I do think for most warming up tends to be individually based, but I could definitely put together like a top 5 warm-ups for upper and lower body in this same fashion!
For someone who's been suffering with knee tendinitis for more than 4 months now, after trying tempo squats they helped a lot with bare feet. In a hypertrophy phase would you say pause squats and tempo squats would be the go as primary and secondary day? (both high-bar)
I'd lean more towards pause squats in a hypertrophy phase. Tempo becomes fairly self limiting and excruciatingly exhausting with higher reps, so I usually don't program too many tempo sets over 5 reps.
As someone that struggles with knee pain for a long time and never went away from comp squats you got me thinking. So pause squatting (sth like 3@7 + sets of 5) on primary day and pause ssb squats on secondary (no top set, 4-6 reps?) would be a good place to start?
So most knee pain seems to stem back from doing too high of workload compared to what you can recover from, but moving towards more self limiting variations is a form of workload reduction since absolute intensity decreases. So it definitely would be worth trying!
Awesome going to do some barefoot paused safety bar squats, just joking great video looking forward to trying out these variations. Thank you for the great content.
Dang it!! Now I need to remove reverse banded box squat with chains from my programming!! But really this is great content PS.: I may never remove tempo deficit Bulgarian split squats 😘
Couldn’t click like fast enough, this man knows his stuff and has a knack for clear explanations.
Thank you!
Another really insightful one, keep throwing 1h videos at us we're READY
More to come!
The safety bar section is complete gold, I saw so much wrong with what I was doing and why I was never comfortable with it!
Awesome, hopefully that helps make it a lot more beneficial for you!

I'll keep that one in mind, thanks for the suggestion!
Swolefessor sent me here. He highly recommended you great video.
Thanks to Marcellus!
Really good video man. I found a lot of quality content on your channel, great to see
I appreciate that!
Great video!! Just curious, do you have any idea when are you going to release "Top 3 Favorite Bench Variations" video?
Probably within 3 weeks or so. I trying to be consistent of uploading once every 3 weeks right now.
Gotta start paying attention to my braces and pelvis, front of my left hip has felt butchered lately.
Check out the low bracing and setup video as well if you haven't already, that should definitely help!
@@PRsPerformance will do buddy, thanks
Great Video! 1) General thoughts on high bar squats as a variation? 2) Does the SSB bar actually activate more quads than regular low bar squats?
High bar is great, use it as a variation all the time.
Wouldn't SSBs be even better for hip-hinging squatters (e.g. with long femurs) to fix weaknesses in the knee extension/core?
It can be, but it also could be a very demanding movement for someone who is disadvantaged leverage wise for SSB, so that could go both ways.

Bulgarian Split Squats will always be my first love.
Front squats? Yes? No?
Not a fan, due to the limiting factor of a front squat is holding the bar in place/abdominals.
