Is it just me or does he seem like the friendliest WSM ever? Most seem quiet, reserved, unapproachable....but this guy seems like an ordinary freakishly strong teenager just living his best life and having fun 😂
Thank you very much for existing pal. You will be a great dad to your upcoming daughter :) 🙏🙏🙏💪

@@geniusmarcsays2434 why you talking to me?
I like how you reframed the question around nerve signals and movement patterns. That’s a good way to help us rethink about how we approach the basics.

Love it. Just got home from a 145 km bike ride. Epic day. I went to go visit my 9 year old son for the day. Thank you for the opportunity to learn from all of your past athletic endeavors. I am from Montréal . Go Moose. So proud of you that you brought the world s strongest man trophy home to Canada. I feel that if J F had not been injured. That was exactly where he was headed. In a way I feel that you did it for the both of you guys. God bless you and you wife and your new baby. Really appreciate you kind sir. ❤❤❤

I like Mitchell seems very down to earth and genuine
These videos are brilliant! Great info 👍
Excellent content and advice. Thank you.
Love the honest info.
Thanks so much for sharing this!! You really made things more clear and easy to understand
That was fantastic. Great Job, Mitchell!!! You made this very easy to understand. Thank you!
I enjoy these types of videos so much. It really helps me as I just started the gym around 7 months ago with zero experience.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge sir, now I will apply these protocols into my routine.
This is a fecking gold mine, thanks for posting this vid, fantastic stuff.
Fantastic as always
Great video! Thanks again
Thanks, Mitch. Very helpful. I will try this in my next Block.
So well explained, you are so eloquent. Congrats this year on winning both the Arnold and WSM! Which was the hardest?
Thank you for your TH-cam content. It is outstanding and helpful. Congratulations on your well earned and intelligent success.
compact and straight to the point! nice stuff.
Some pretty good info packed into a short vid, thanks brother
Awesome information!!
Love these quick and to the point videos. Super helpful.
Brilliant info simply brilliant 💪
Great info thanks
Great info, thank you
Great info!
My training fluctuates between singles, 3x5, 5x5, 5x3, etc. I'll only go up to higher reps and lighter weights for rehab/recovery or what have you. (higher reps is more mentally grueling/taxing with all the lactic acid buildup and the mind practically giving up before the body whereas with heavier weights it just feels so good and is easier to get to that point of completion for whatever rep range you're going for, even if it's 1 rep in reserve or even possibly 0 in reserve it's still easier for me to do lower reps heavier weight, but that's because I love how it feels, only thing is listening to the body and what the feedback is telling me and not sidestepping if something is screaming at me as being off (gotta dial things back on some movements sometimes and only push on the days where all feels nice and buttery).
Appreciate all of your videos you keep putting out, I'm like a sponge soaking it all up, we're always learning/growing and adapting!
As always great intelligent science backed content
Thank you!
Always wondered why and how Mitchell came out of nowhere and won worlds, guy just understands how the human body works, a lot of strongmen just know how to lift heavy things, Mitch knows the science behind it, top stuff
Watch some of the podcasts with him, its amazing story...he said he went in the comp thinking he would place anywhere between 1-7th haha and he didnt want to continue doing stronman at all, if it wasnt for the invite
Thanks for this!
You talk a lot about how strongman is really good for health, but as an advanced lifter you're not aiming for health but to beat the competition. Of the novice, intermediate and advanced, which would you say is the ideal spot to aim for for the best health?
Your word is my belief. Amen..
Hey Mitchell, would love you to do a video on when to increase weight, by how much in what time frame etc.
I didn't have any weights for years except for what I was able to make myself, pillow cases full of magazines and trash bags I'd fill with water, had a mop handle I'd use for a barbell and I'd do pushups pullups and dips in the thousands squats too, I guess you can say I work out like my life depends on it.
Thanks Mitch
It was definitely passing off the torch at the Shaw Classic. I’m glad to see you pick up the ball and run with it. You’re one of the first people seen talked about peaking and programming. This is excellent contact!
This is SUPER helpful. As a strongman novice, this was needed.
Mitch is changing the ugly and incorrect narrative a number of shallow people believe about individuals who focus much of their life on strength and muscle building! Awesome.....I love it!
Always appreciate the attention to EDUCATION and EDUTAINMENT, when so many in your field are only interested in ENTERTAINMENT.
Mitch is a natural teacher. His ability to put things in layman's terms is incredible.
Always great information Mitch. Congratulations to you and Ashley 😀🥳 Martin
I remember when I first got into powerlifting when I was 19 my bench was 415 and I’d workout for 2 hours but after a couple years my bench only went up to 451 in competition, I switched to just doing bench for about an hour on bench days no accessories or anything and in one year went from 451 to 540 in competition
Dam thats impressive I haven't been able to get past 225 so this year am trying to minimize workouts and just focus on bench press with low reps
Beautifully explained. Wish someone else said that when i was 20 yo.
Excellent.
Great video Mitch, but I cant add it to a playlist. Did you list it as "for kids" ?
Mitchell I’d just like to say… you are the bollocks son, keep up the good work big g 🤝
Thank you
Central nervous system .. rest ... less volume .. reminds me of the principles also from Mike Mentzer .. very insightful and awesome video ..thank u ❤❤❤️
Ironically Mike's principles work much better for getting stronger than getting bigger
Great info. Getting your deadlift program. Been stuck at 550 for awhile. Want 600 before I am 55
how old are you now?
Dank je wel mitch , means thank you mitch in dutch😊
I'm 49 in a couple of months and been training natural since 16 so it's more of Lift Light and Be Kind these days for me! 🤣🤣
I do miss my days of pushing myself to the limit and hitting PB's but my joints and overall body just can't take it anymore. I still enjoy training 4 days a week and stick to 12-15 reps on everything now.
Most important training is the one that gets done. And you are doing that
@@jylauril Very true my friend, very true!
Try increasing your intake of vitamins to support your metabolism. Triple your magnesium intake, it will help with joints and stiffness, combatting all the calcification in the body in general.
@@techpiller2558 Already on it, I take a multitude of things each day. VB12, VD, Cod liver Oil, pro biotics etc... I get most Vitamins from food as I eat a lot of steak, rice and vegetables.
I'm the same age as you, and I know what you're talking about my friend. My workouts are more akin to physical therapy and rehabilitation. Working around all the old injuries I incurred when I was young and dumb.
I love this 70s Pron-Mustache!
Top tier man
Hello from Greece my opinion is squat deadlift benchpress bent over tow shoulder press pull ups also add dips push ups lunges
Looking back to when I trained deadlift twice a week, same reps, same sets. That seems utterly impossible now. If I do one more rep than I should, I might as well call a funeral agency.
Hi Mitchell, you said squat, deadlift,hinge, overhead Press, carry,mi point is deadlifting and hinging is two different movements?? Maybe is deadlift, clean?
Barring any specific goals or muscle imbalances, the average person should ideally train each muscle group twice per week for maximum results, with one to two exercises per muscle group during each workout session.
Muscles usually recover in 72 hours.
CNS recovery is 7-10 days, intensity depending.
Thanks Moose
It's so fantastic to get this kind of knowledge and insight from the strongest man on the planet himself. Would love to see more of this stuff!
Mitch is right.
I increased from 0 rep to 3 rep and my fat muscle is shrinking !!! BE AWARE :)
So, what is the most potent way to build muscle? Do you have a video on that? Thanks.
Mostly i do 5x5
bench:5x5
Squat: 5x5
Overhead: 5x5
Deadlift: 1x5
Barbebell rows 5x5
And that over couple of days
I'm always on the fence when it comes to working up to a top set with heavier working sets or doing it like Mitch said, work up to a heavy top set and then back offs..I just remember a video with Eddie Hall over 5 years ago where he always finished with the heaviest set..I guess either way works!
eddie hall also had a meiostatin defficiency and was on PED's, there is literally no one like him, anything he did was gonna build him muscle regardless
@@dg5489Eddie was no different than lots of strongmen, don't buy the bs.
I remember that. He was talking about his 6's and stuff. Just because a dude makes it to S tier doesn't mean he won't preach bro-sciency stuff from time to time.
Been doing back-offs for months and they are great for adding volume after a top set.
Hitting the top set fresh means you can go heavier with better form, which is ideal for strength.
The CNS doesn't just magically forget the heavy stimulus because you ended your sets on a lighter load.
@@--SPQR-- true. I believe that was his thought process, that he wanted his body/mind to remember the last heavy set he lifted, so it would adapt better to lifting those loads or something like that 🤷♂️
I think you really have to play with reps and sets and find what works best for you and it might change week to week if you are trying to peak. I've tried a lot of different programs (been lifting 30 years) and still setting PR's and trying new things. Right now I alternate a heavy day and a volume day. On heavy days, I usually like to work up to a pretty hefty single before my working sets, since I am fresh, and it also makes the working sets feel a lot lighter. If I'm doing a volume day (more than 5 reps a set for me, lol), I'll sometimes just progress the weights as I work through the sets or do a pyramid and then drop down at the end for a burnout set if I want to get some more volume in. I set off with a plan each session, of course, but also go by feel at times as well.
How do you deal with people who have a strong foundation in the gym, but have had a break of a few months? Go beginner level for a month, then intermediate for a full training cycle? I haven’t trained in months, but am a former/current (?) state record holder in powerlifting.
You've gotta start with where you are right now. The gains will come a lot faster than the first time around, but you have to recognise that in this moment you are not the person you were all those months ago, you're who you are right now. Training like you're that other person will get you injured. As a record holder I bet you're high enough level to be able to tell when you're ready to push and when you need to be more conservative. You already know how to get strong, the toughest part isnt practical, its mental. Treat it as if you've had an injury. It will suck to start back with only a plate on the bar, but you've gotta redial in your form, rebuild the muscle, reconnect those neural pathways and in a short span of time you'll probably blow right past your previous best.
Exactly
First time clicking on your video and bro, what the hell is that neck, what are you feeding that thing.
Train like you’re paid for it 💪
If 3x3 is that also twice a week or just the once?
and how many times at week we should do the 3x3?
I had to watch this twice.. So the thing is kind of like, less volume per session but more or equal volume per week? I trained bodybuilding style for my 20's and have only shifted to strength focus for this last year. 3x3 at 80-85% does sound like it would work great for me for OHP and squat but not deadlifts. My deadlift is 2x bodyweight but taking 15% off that leaves me with like 350lbs, which is honestly peanuts to me. I suppose this is due to the fact that I only deadlift double overhand though, so my 1rm is probably not really my 1rm. I guess I should learn how to brace at the bottom and use straps.
I've been lifting for over 60 years so I should do like one rep at 98% maybe once a year then rest for 364 days? 😉
Not gonna lie, im glad you said novice lasts for around 3 years. If ive got 2 more years of the growth ive gained this year im looking forward to it!! 👀😂
I thought training like week 1-3 with 5x5, week 4-6 with 3x3, and after week 6 trying to work up to a max single was good. But it seems I confused weeks with years :)
no you didnt
@@-angeldust Could you elaborate? He said two different things. Which one are you saying that to?
@@BurningBridgeStudios what you mean elaborate? thats how many powerlifters train in prep, going up each week increasing weight decreasing reps its really simple
I’ve doing doing 85% of my one rep max 3x3 and newbie knee it was a legit program lol
What about sets tht start higher reps to heavy weight like 15 reps then 10 then 6 then 3 heavier each time?
He sits down between squat reps. Are his 5x5 or 3x3 sets, single reps rather than continuous time under tension reps?
💪
Good advice, but I couldn’t imagine hitting a 5x5 deadlift workout. I’d be destroyed 😅
Depends on load of course.
A great simple explanation of approaches. It's always a bit frustrating to realise you're still in the beginner camp and have probably been over complicating everything though :-)
Gteat info. Thanks mate. But at $483 AuD i wont be doing yer program thnx.
This is like listening to MPMD, love the science backed approach.
Now that would be an awesome discussiuon, both being Canadians as well!
Mike mentzer enough said
You need to be on dave tates table talk pod cast
❤
"The more experienced you are the less volume you can do."
Hmm I wonder about that🤔
I can barely get out of bed. I've reached my genetic limit 😎
i do 20 exercises per muscle group. usually 3 reps per exercise.
I think someone will have to pull 490 kg in practice for deadlift in order to have any real chance at cracking the WR 505 kg.
👑 🦀
I get a release of testosterone and growth hormone no matter how much I lift 😂
the answer is 4
One.
Moose power!
😎👍
Don't tell dr mike israetel that isn't that isn't about muscle groups
Hi there! I'm a USAF Veteran. Can u help me shed some pounds please?
...😀
Give big Ramy 12 weeks...
And here I thought I was pushing hard enough (doing 70% for 4x~12, myorep sets)... After my next deload I'm trying your 5x5 recommendation. Thank you!
are u natural mitch?
I'm pretty sure I'm stronger than at least the lowest 4 billion people on Earth 🤣
