There was more but I figured I should edit a lot of stuff out since the video was damn near an hour and I feel like the masses would have turned against me lol
They definitely help, but id never count leg press as hinge/deadlift tonnage nor carry over, and how's it higher than RDLs and SLDLs (actual deadlifts)??
Mitchel hooper is one of the most educated and qualified Strong Men lmao he's probably one of the best to educate come on brother. He is WSM and has a masters in clinical exercise physiology plus a degree in human kinetics.
God: how much adhd do u want? Eric: yes RDLs are perfect for hamstring-glute-lower-back muscle+strength building. aids my deadlift from the floor so damn much, def. more than squatting. But dunno about good mornings. Even 18" deadlifts do more for me than good mornings, heck even shrugs lol. But trying to replace 18" DLs with banded DLs now.
Honestly, amongst the biggest deadlifting strongman competitors, leg press really appears to be one of the favorite accessory exercises. Eddie Hall, Brian Shaw, Graham Hicks, Hafthor, Mitchell- they all lean heavily into the leg press as their primary leg power developing accessory when peaking for a big deadlift.
To be fair, all the deadlift freaks in Strongman don't do many variants of the deadlift. Mitch, Graham Hicks, and Thor are all surprisingly simple in their approach. Thor might do deficits, Hicks might do deficits, leg presses, or maybe concentric pauses, and Mitch pretty much only does normal deadlift and back-downs. I think Brian Shaw is the one to employ a fair bit of variance when he was competing, like bands, chains, and deficits.
Whens the stick going to start enlightening us with his vast knowledge of horselike movements through his own tierlists and stop edging us with reactions to cookie cutters sub-par opinions?
I like Sam Shethar's approach of not just going for things that look like a deadlift as S-tier, and things that look less like it in a lower tier. Instead he also takes into account what exercise slot they take. For example, a back extension is S-tier because you can do it at a later point in the workout
i think I'm starting to see a pattern in the advice Eric is giving us ... load the exercise with as much freaking weight you can possibly add, throw in some bands, maybe a chain, horsecock the weight any way you can from point A to B, if possible do it every day, recover with a gallon of instant coffee in-between
Eric you should give snatch grip deadlifts a try. I see better carryover compared to deficit deadlifts. It will destroy your upper back if you go heavy. It’s the same as a deficit deadlift, just you don’t have to stand on a block. Huge carryover to conventional deadlifts.
One thing about many of these great strongmen or bodybuilders is the fact just how clearly limited they are in their knowledge. They can't even differentiate between exercises, spew absolute weird takes. Just shows how much work ethic, genetics and mindset can get you.
Mr Rick, I’ve seen you’re pullovers to press but what about some straight up pullovers, I think you are on to something with that decline EZ bar variation
I have to agree with mr 🐴🐔 here, specifically on RDLs and 3🍌tempo excentric (sub ✏️ tempo). No other variations will teach you how to HINGE better than those, plus theyll give you the thickest hams ever. BTW KB swings are AT LEAST A tier too!

Any plans for a long sleeve?

Wintersun!
Hammer smashed face at 14 minute mark made me smile
Doing your own tier list ranking of exercises for all the major muscle groups would be easy content for weeks, and valuable to the fans. Do it!
Dude YES. Could even be for different goals a la power, gettin stacked, etc
Then jeff nippard will pop up with his scientific critique of it haha
Yes, it would be gold
@@watsonkushmaster3067this would be hilarious

Eric, you should make a tier list of all the experiments you've done over the years

Yeah a personal tier list of all the lifts he did🔥🔥🔥🫡❗️

"Pencil neck" is not disrespectful it is insubordination to the way of the mindset
It’s still the same TV, but Rick has just gotten massive - now the TV looks tiny compared to him
😂
Sticky Ricky has become so large it seems the room is shrinking around him
Right? He's in a high school.gym.
That's a 55-inch plasma on the wall brother
What's most impressive about Hooper is he's probably the only strongman who ever ran a marathon.
That’s actually bonkers
Look up Andrew Clayton.
@@davidsagona417 That's incredible. Both were above average runners too. I should change my original comment to probably only World's Strongest Man*
@@rajmathew6220 Andrew Clayton actually won Worlds Strongest Man 105kg ... which does not make him the strongest man in absolute terms, but still.
Eddie hall was a really good swimmer first and Brian played college basketball. Not marathons but very cardio intensive sports.
Randomly stopping whatever I was doing to play Hangar 18 is so relatable :p
His attention span is legendary 😅
Need Sticky Rick to review Dorian Yates Blood and Guts DVD
15:45 "It's not even that many plates", 15 plates on the bar.
The utter disbelief at dumbbell deadlifts coming up 😂😂😂
You're hilarious and a legend
@TravisHowrish Then why not just do trap bar deadlifts?
@chancearden4741 I don't have a trap bar
@TravisHowrish most gyms only have 50kg max dumbbell 100kg for a deadlift is too light to be useful

Crisp metal riffs during a dismantling of a tier list definitely has it's place. I'd love to see more guitar in these videos. You're a great player
that commercial was actually really good lol.
While I appreciate the editing I also don't mind an hour video of horsecock rambling and Stick realizing multiple times he's ''bombed'' the video 😂😂😂
legit disappointed that he cut the 10min rant fr
Some lifters weren't made to educate. Leg Press S Teir for deadlifts? gtfoh.
They definitely help, but id never count leg press as hinge/deadlift tonnage nor carry over, and how's it higher than RDLs and SLDLs (actual deadlifts)??
Because it has no axial loading going through the spine
@@davidoa3276 so how's that helping all the ego douchebags that load the leg Press with every plate in the gym, but can't squat 225lbs for their life.
Mitchel hooper is one of the most educated and qualified Strong Men lmao he's probably one of the best to educate come on brother. He is WSM and has a masters in clinical exercise physiology plus a degree in human kinetics.
Bro, did you cut the 10 min rant out of this?!!?!?!!? THOSE ARE THE BEST PARTS! #ReleaseSnyderCut
You should do a collab with him and convince him of the power of the banded deadlift
God: how much adhd do u want?
Eric: yes
RDLs are perfect for hamstring-glute-lower-back muscle+strength building. aids my deadlift from the floor so damn much, def. more than squatting. But dunno about good mornings. Even 18" deadlifts do more for me than good mornings, heck even shrugs lol. But trying to replace 18" DLs with banded DLs now.
I hate standard barbell good morning. However, they are absolute money when using a cambered bar. A must try
@@ericbugenhagenOfficial yeah, I use an ssb but most of the time i rather just do more rdls ^^
Bugz is the Michael Burry of science based lifting, he criticised it at its peak and now everyone has seen the light.
Honestly, amongst the biggest deadlifting strongman competitors, leg press really appears to be one of the favorite accessory exercises. Eddie Hall, Brian Shaw, Graham Hicks, Hafthor, Mitchell- they all lean heavily into the leg press as their primary leg power developing accessory when peaking for a big deadlift.
When you picked up that guitar and started to shred I said to myself...me and this fockin' guy are on the exact..same..level! Love from Chicago
Can you build a #bloatlord sled and push it around all day?

I want Sticky Ricky to do strongman so bad. He would do well.
He should. He definitely trains like one.
Randomly pulling out some Wintersun riffage is a flex 😆

If that’s not the greatest pump cover ad I’ve ever seen, I don’t know what is!
These videos are awesome. Especially because you get so many tid bits with the longer form content
Eric is right, pencilneckness is a way of life.
I just picked up you’re Ricky’s rotund raspberry pre workout and had a phenomenal chest day
11:31 Hangar 18!! My absolute favorite song to blast when I’m finishing a workout with a burnout of some kind
Horsecock song
You need to do more of these regularly and for longer, we live for the mental rants when you’re coming up from pre workout
I respect Hooper immensely but I definitely agree w all of Stick's criticisms
I love the pump cover ads
Eric's the only guy in the fitness space that makes any sense
Hip thrust above banded deadlift. Something is crushed in the logical world.
Yeah but if you're making an intelligent program you can't easily track and progress banded lifts
i think I'm starting to see a pattern in the advice Eric is giving us ... load the exercise with as much freaking weight you can possibly add, throw in some bands, maybe a chain, horsecock the weight any way you can from point A to B, if possible do it every day, recover with a gallon of instant coffee in-between
Wintersunhagen's Delicious Delights
Best assistence exercises for deadlift: Front squats, RDLs, barbell rows, hyperextensions. Front squats were absolute money for increasing my deadlift
Didnt expect him to bust out some Wintersun shred!
No one, not even the current WSM, has the mindset. Sticky Ricky is our only hope
You need to do a collab with someone you disagree with and make a tier list with them. The debates would be golden.
React to Jeff Nippards new best and worst quad exercises video
Here’s my vote for de la stick collab video with Mitchell hooper. Hooper drives the boat stick, hooper drives the boat.
Thanks for explaining once and for ALLL how raminnians differ from the stiffy
Dr. Density back at it again dropping pearls of wisdom!
we have the fanny pack, the pump cover....we're only missing the old school poster for the home gym
Eric make a tier list yourself from pencil neck to horsecockery exercises
did the TV get smaller or did Rick get more rotund ?
He’s now bigger than Godzilla. This is Times Square
That last Pic(with the shaker bottle) in the intro promo did justice.🧐😤👍🏾
need more guitar content man

It's the best deadlift period
This video triggered my ADHD and may I add one hell of a great vid. Top class entertainment.
I legitimately tore my glute doing the jefferson split squat, trying 365lbs

This might be the first tier list review video with an actual cut.
Reading sticks replies to comments, turns out this was originally almost an hour long.

Pretty sure its hammer smashed face by CC
Squats and leg press don't work hamstrings all that much so they should never be S tier for growing the deadlift

Just finished watching the 1st half😂😂
100% agree w. you Rick - bands and chains ARE cash money
I have to agree with mr 🐴🐔 here, specifically on RDLs and 3🍌tempo excentric (sub ✏️ tempo). No other variations will teach you how to HINGE better than those, plus theyll give you the thickest hams ever. BTW KB swings are AT LEAST A tier too!
What's the practical difference between the B and C categories? B is less mediocre than C? And what makes an S better than A? I don't get it.
Ricc can’t you give us some golden tidbits on guitar gains?
was that sons of winter and stars at 8:00? When are you releasing your full cover??
When are you going to show us the plethora of guitars, Ricky?
