Zack asked me for a lesson in vocabulary from the Flexionary, so here you go: Glassback (n): an individual susceptible to back injury due to lack of musculature, bodily awareness and training. Worryweak (n): an individual who, from lack of sufficient training, is particularly fragile and projects that fragility onto everyone else. Long-Term-Novice (n): an individual who has been training, ineffectively, for many years and thus has very poor results for their training age. Meat Titan (n): a large, experienced, strong lifter who has come to realize that lifting heavy ass weight and training with intensity is pretty much the only thing that really matters, everything else is just seasoning. Range of Mogging (abbreviated RoM) (n): the degree by which a big lift causes aggravation, discomfort, and combativeness in glassbacks, LTNs and Worryweaks. Midwits (n): someone who is as ignorant on a topic as a dimwit but doesn't have the courtesy to realize it. (Credit: @atlaspowershrugged) I hope this lesson has been educational and helps expand your vocabulary.
Mark Rosenberg has consistently been the kindest and most supportive online lifter I've seen. I routinely ask him dumb questions in comments and off his stories, and he has never been rude and has always answered patiently. Good guy
he was a piece of shit to me so i strongly disagree lol, even i didnt pat him on the back, i wrote something like be careful or something, and he got really offended.
@@RustyIsScared I'm sorry if you tried to comment in good faith, but you probably did so in a sea of commentors employing false concern to claim moral superiority in their criticism. I find this behavior disingenuous and obnoxious and respond accordingly, if at all.
Zack, I love that you brought up the biopsychosocial model of pain. I wrote a term paper last semester over cultural perceptions of pain, and after getting acquanited with Elaine Scarry’s work, the thing that really jumped out to me is the prevalence in online fitness circles of catastrophizing pain and kinesiophobia. So many novices are terrified of even doing deadlifts or squats not because they’ve experienced any pain on their own part, but because some “influencer” fearmongered a natural movement pattern. I certainly fell into that category when I first started.
The double layer irony is that I did tweak my glute or something around there today but I did it with a regular ass 605lb deadlift lol. It'll be better in a week give or take but I am a little chagrinned given the timing haha.
Glad you put throwers in there. I was former masters world champion Highland games athlete. At 56, on my birthday, I pulled 805 lbs from below the knees. On you tube. In rack with wraps. I can tell you throwers take their weight lifting seriously. Highland games is all about throwing. This was after a year of training specifically dead lifts. Coach at time believed dead lift serious key to throwing. My best traditional deadlifts No no no from floor was 600+ for triples using tendo meter to record speed. My best snack was 82 kilos and C&J was 107 kilos in my fifties. I trained throws in morning and weights in evening working full time job. I loved them both.
I fucking cry-laughed with you throughout the entire fuckings deadliestlift part of the video, I can't breathe man. Thank you for this! Good luck with your movie!
Omg lool I can't with that second camera.. deadliestlift is new to me but that camera tells me everything I need to know Also the Range of Mogging demands respect
The term glassback isn't new, it's been around for decades. It was a term used by an old time lifter and Ironmind used to sell a product called Squat Circle or something like that created by an old time lifter, possibly Peary Rader used for men with "glass backs" or people with back pain.
Yep nothing is really original so I'm not going to pretend any random words I come up with havent been combined before. Call it a revival instead of an original if you like.
@@deadliestlift there is nothing new under the sun, but hardly anyone saw it the first time, so now that it's in the sun again, you can claim it's all you, and it'll only be nerds who know better
As a CrossFitter, I find the people who hurt themselves in CrossFit gyms to be people who actually aren't hyper competitive and have little experience in athletics growing up. It's always people who are trying to prove their strength to others, like attention seeker type people. I've got a good gym thankfully but I've seen some fucking goobers in there lol
The laugh I got from watching you laugh at Deadliestlift was exactly what I needed. 😂 👍🏻 That dude has been popping up on my IG feed lately and his term “glassback” is just… 🤌🏼
Zack: my thesis about CrossFit, cognitive dissonance, dangerous lifts, know your limitations foolish children *[2 seconds later]*: YAS, you mad genius, you show those glassbacks
Lol, I started doing conventional deadlifts and my back and glutes are doesn't hurt any more. You gotta increase the weight for your muscles to strengthen, doing the same exercise over a long period of time won't do anything.
"Po salátku 150 kg jak nic..." means "150 kg was like nothing after potato salad" (potato salad and fish is the traditional Czech Christams Eve dinner). Greetings from Czech Republic :)
I only have a bar, bumpers, dumbbells, rings, and an adjustable bench. I wanted to take this time to focus on my Olympic lifting with a secondary focus on single leg work (due to glute weakness). Any ideas on how to progress when you HAVE to clean in order to squat?
Don’t particularly get the difference between the crosslifter who tries to muscle up on rings and bounces his head off the ground and the guy who chokes himself out with a bar and bounces his head off the ground
"if it feels alright it's fine" - I have to disagree here, learning good patterns often feel odd at the beginning, but they save you on the long run. This applies to any domain. Now this dude may never have his back go snap, but keep in mind there is a survivor bias here. You won't see all the guys who ended up with crippling injuries. Just recently, a girl at my gym who has a tendency to round-back her way to deadlift PRs heard a pop and is now going through some pain, although not debilitating, she's only in her 20s and she probably signed up for life-long issues.
The whole "pain is in your head" thing is actually so insulting. Imo the whole biopsychosocial model an easy cop out for physios who can't or don't care enough to figure out the source of the pain and how to fix it, especially when it comes to the low back.
It feel ok, until it doesn't. I used to think my low back was indestructable too. 400+ lb good mornings, round back deadlifts. His spine is fine now, but his time will come where it won't be because of all of these idiotic lifts.
In the old times there was the idea that lifting heavy things is inherently bad, but now some people have taken a complete u-turn from this and come up with theories that the body will always and forever adapt no matter what you do. But just because a few people on social media manage to get away with torturing their spine, doesn't mean you will too.

thanks obama
It's always nice when we get bestowed such knowledge. Maybe someday I will achieve this prestige.
Brocabulary*
I want a flexionary definition too 😂
midwit is like 10 year old 4chan terminology
This is anti glassback propoganda. As a proponent of egolifting, I'm all for it.
Mark Rosenberg has consistently been the kindest and most supportive online lifter I've seen. I routinely ask him dumb questions in comments and off his stories, and he has never been rude and has always answered patiently. Good guy
Yes. He has reviewed my form and gave me tips on where I could be better.

Wow
Bro your @ has me fuckin ROLLING
the best part about this dude is all the instagram comments he gets from 2 plate deadlifters telling him how he's gonna break his back ANY DAY NOW

@@deadliestlift Be carefull and don't literally rip your ass apart grinding through this shit 😂...
Deadliest is not a millionnaire in dollars, he's a millionnaire in 45lb plates
Few men can make Zack cry, this guy sure is something

I'm all for his anti glassback movement. We are well aware of the risks before we perform the tasks. Risk takers make the world go round.
HIS SPIIIIINE IS FIIIIINE!
Incredible acting from Zack at the beginning. Can't wait to watch "The Weight" 😂
your laughter is infectious😂
glassbacks seething rn
This steel back supremacism of yours is very offemding and frightening. As a glass back i no lomger feel safe on YT.
Thank you Zack and deadliestlift. Hopped on at the first ego olympics and am happy to have stayed. 💪
Man your content brings so much joy to me, I love what you bring to the fitness community so much.
The guys you feature in you Ego Lifting Videos are a ton of fun! I started following a lot of them on IG and I am never disappointed.
“Glassback” is the best term. Love it.
Any video where Zack laughs is a win for me 😂 most contagious laugh on TH-cam 😂😂
He 910 lbs??? Did it, Jefferson!
That dude’s back is going to be so jacked
The best part about the ceiling camera is that it happened because of a commenter
"mm..mmyyy back hurts watching this. improper form"
I fucking cry-laughed with you throughout the entire fuckings deadliestlift part of the video, I can't breathe man. Thank you for this! Good luck with your movie!
Throwers rarely get talked about, glad to see it!
Omg lool I can't with that second camera.. deadliestlift is new to me but that camera tells me everything I need to know
Also the Range of Mogging demands respect
Lost it when he did the lift and his head poked through the ceiling where camera 2 is 🤣🤣🤣
That's too badass!

please make a short out of that grizzly intro, thats just gold
That fake beard from the movie clip is very realistic, great effects!
We need to get deadliestlifts footage to @JackPGM stat!
That would be sick!
At the risk of heresy, I think I like Deadliest Lifts better than Kyriakos Grizzly.
Okay this intro is so hilarious that I might end up watching this video multiple times this week
love you. love deadliestlift.
I like to think that the lift originates from Thomas Jefferson
the picture with the sitting lifter and title on a T-shirt would be awesome!!!!
To be able to deadlift 900+ pounds means you are living life to the fullest…
Are you an arbiter of such things?
@@Sealed_Chamberyes
@@leonardo9259 You must be very pleased with your standing in this world.
@@Sealed_Chamber are you an arbiter of such things?
@@leonardo9259 It could be said.
3:10 im pretty sure this dude is wearing knee sleeves on his ellbows....
I can't believe you don't cover the Bugez
I'm a confirmed glassback
The Intro is goated 😂😂😂
zack with a beard just threwwwww me for a loop man
These reaction videos where you lose your sh*t laughing are my absolute favorite content you do!
Definite glassback here. This dude is awesome.
Yeah, I'll throw a few hundy at your cvnt movie.
Zack FTW 💪
props to you for giving the chap some exposure!
Does anyone have the link to the first video of Zack reacting to deadliestlift wearing a hard hat?
I'm looking for it too
Lmao that intro was hilarious.

How solid?

Wow you missed his whole point.
It was the laugh for me🤣😂
Can someone please link me to Zack's video of him losing it over Deadliestlift in a hardhat?
holy shit that intro was great
Surely you need to cover worm chad, remind me if you have but he really takes the concept of glassbacks to its most extreme
Zack do you play bloodborne? I just noticed the background lol I love that game
That sweet home Alabama soundbite was amazing
Styrofoam spines seething
Give us some "the weight" merch, pleeeeeeease!!!!
What is the original video where Zack reacted to him the first time?
Bibi's ridiculous!
I did that Jefferson deadlift at 13
Lol, I started doing conventional deadlifts and my back and glutes are doesn't hurt any more. You gotta increase the weight for your muscles to strengthen, doing the same exercise over a long period of time won't do anything.
This video made my day ha
Is that background bloodbourne ?
Cross fit is my favorite sport...to watch... regarding "fails" videos I mean!
Is that the FF1 theme ending the video? classic

Zack needs to do a soulsborne playthrough, strength build all the way through 🤙
the pink belt, ladies!!!!
Deadliestlift is truly the goat
Ego lift or no lift
Don’t particularly get the difference between the crosslifter who tries to muscle up on rings and bounces his head off the ground and the guy who chokes himself out with a bar and bounces his head off the ground
LIFTERS !!!! I HAVE A MESSAGE VIA THE BLOATMASTER PLEASE COME AND LISTEN
The bloat says
“Full respect Zack”
THANK YOU
David Dellenave husband of Jen Sinkler is a record setting Jeff lifter. Not an ego lifter.
Wow, I love this man lol
Crossfit guy is lucky to not have gotten the corner of that box through the brainstem
Priceless!
Nice editing
Dude is a legend :D :D :D :D
I cant believe we have to weight that long
can you upload a ds3 playthrough
How much skin do you have in the game financially with this movie? Can you disclose that?
Yeah!
For sure that song by the band will be used in the movie, the song is called the weight

im a glassback sumo hater (i pull sumo)
i doubt he suffers much from stress!! :PPP
Ngl Zack 6:31 wasn’t that funny 😅💀
