@@igochopyourdollar he hates training the raw strength exercises. He mentions front squat, snatch pull, and deadlift. They are much heavier lifts. More than 50kg+ compared to the technical Olympic lifts

You know that you are a monster if even Lyu xiaojun smiles in awe with a wtf face with you pulling 270kg as a 73kg athlete lol that last bit was awesome
This was the most impressive clean pull/deadlift I've ever seen.

Amazing...as a former weightlifter i was taught that back squat was one of the most important exercises to develop leg strenght ..to read in the subtitles that he does not do back squats surprises me..anyway..he is a top lifter and he knows well what is good or not for him..👍👍
He quitted back squatting when he developed his leg strength at 270kg. Yet for non pros that’s still pretty important as our leg strength definitely not reaching limit as he does
Back squat targets a wider range of ancillary muscles and is easier to recover from than front squats. Front squats are more specific to weightlifting, hence their near exclusive use by some specificity-minded programs like the Bulgarian and Kazakh. Before you stop training back squat, ask yourself 1) Am I an A-session weightlifter? 2) Do I have a serious spinal injury? 3) Am I on an advanced performance-enhancing drug regimen? If you not answer yes to at least 2 of those questions, keep back squatting.
can you ask any of the elite lifters (Shi, Lu, Tian, Li, etc.) if they ever do any periodization for squats/pulls or do they just go ultra heavy all the time? I don't think I've ever seen them do more than 3 reps in any lift, maybe Tian fucked around and did 7 reps once, but for Shi specifically, it seems like sets of 1 and only 1 lol...
@@xdavidliu yeah I know, but there's a clip of him doing 270 for 7 as well as one of him doing 300 for 4. Just wanted to know if those were just one-offs or part of an actual program at the time, and if any of the other lifters ever do higher volume behind the scenes.
"The thing I hate the most, it's training muscles" - this guy is just on another level.
What does he mean by that? Someone explain please

Look at the genuine laughter that people burst into when Shi failed in dips lol
Because Lu makes it look so easy.
Shi is a funny guy lol he makes me chuckle
We need more! We need more! We need more!
I'll try to produce one video each day during the next two weeks
谢谢🙏
He said he hates muscle training but has a great physique.
It's like the one guy in class that hates certain subject in school but Aced it anyway.
He hates it but he still does it
That’s called a nice dose of anabolics and god given genetics.

this is the sign i needed to stop training back squat
@googas he is probably just joking (I hope)
I mean, if you can bs 270, go for it
Front squat is better anyway. Stopping back squats doesn't mean stop squatting

au contraire, Tian *never* does reps; he said so in a recent video on this channel

Never clicked faster in my life.

I'm here for the AAAAAHHHH
I want to get like that...have my squat and deadlift almost equal
wait is there more of this interview??
I see. I should hate my muscle so I too can become technically proficient & JACKED at the same time 😤
Curious as to why he stopped back squatting. Front squatting just better for oly carry over?
I believe he got injured back squatting
Why doesn’t he train back squats? I’m very curious about that statement.
He had a lower back injury back in 2012, and has stopped trying to back squat ever since
Full interview?
AHHHHHHHHH CAO.
He is just like me or should I say I'm just like him
So he C & J -1kg less than Lu's heaviest in comp and 2 kg away from WR in 81s..!!
0:44 see the legs can't find the place....haha, he was mocking by whole China team, this is classic!
Anyone know why he doesn't train back squat?
he doesn't train back squat in powerlifting way, these guys have a huge amount of squat training
@@cansunhuang4491 lmao
Lower back injury, so he sticked to Front Squat, which is preferable anyway for Oly lifting
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!
Honestly I feel like we are good rivals lol.
ahhhhhhhhhhh
errAAAAAAAAAA~

He doesn't train back squat OMG.
So he skips leg day from 2012?
