what I'm saying, will open up and answer those questions.
31
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:08.000
Yeah, yeah, So first question for today, since we're jumping
32
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.080
right to it. After dicads competing at the highest levels
33
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:14.639
and strength sports from powerlifting World championships to multiple World
34
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:20.039
Strongest Man appearances, what's one lesson about training, recovery or
35
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:29.120
competition that you wish every young athlete truly understood. Yeah,
36
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:31.960
not to be in a hurry. To be quite honest
37
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:34.000
with you, a lot of these young kids are in
38
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.680
such a hurry to get there. They're not taking their
39
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.400
time to build it the right way, and they're in
40
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:42.919
a hurry. They don't understand what it takes for the
41
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:46.000
body to heal, how long the healing times should be.
42
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:48.719
They read online that the bodybuilders heal at this time
43
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:51.800
and this guy heals this time, and the healing times
44
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:56.000
aren't right yet, and they don't understand that. And so
45
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.199
we're muscle recover in two to three days. The tenons
46
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:02.000
and ligments don't heal between six and eight days. And
47
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:05.800
if you're worried about competing in strength sports, the most
48
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.759
important thing that needs to heal is the tenons and ligaments.
49
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.960
If the tenons and ligaments don't heal and the muscle
50
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.479
gets stronger faster than the connective tissue can withstand your
51
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.319
tenens and ligaments, you're going to run into injuries. You're
52
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:21.840
going to run into problems, and in some cases it'll
53
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:23.520
drastically shorten people's careers.
54
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:24.960
It really will.
55
00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:28.719
And so the biggest thing is patience, and it's the
56
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.560
hardest thing because the kids just want to train and
57
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:34.759
train and train and overtrain and throw in more reps
58
00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:37.000
here and throwing more reps there. It's like, dude, just
59
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.800
stick to the plan. If you stick to the plan
60
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.000
and have faith in the plan and work the plan,
61
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:44.520
you're going to get where you want to be and
62
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:46.960
the amount of rest that you get between everything. If
63
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:50.400
you fully recovered when you come in, including your tenons
64
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.840
and connective tissue, you're almost never gonna get hurt unless
65
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.479
you do something moronically stupid. But if you don't do that,
66
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.919
you'll almost never get hurt. Which is that that's the goal.
67
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.159
If you can get through things without getting broken, without
68
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:07.919
getting damaged, your slow, methodical process will get you there.
69
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.800
Thirty three pounds on a lift a year, on each
70
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.639
lift a year for ten years. You know, it turns
71
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:22.439
you from an average lifter to world class, world champion
72
00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:25.800
level lifter. And it's just having that kind of patience
73
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.000
over a decade to put that work in and then
74
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:31.199
you'll really start to see the results. And after that
75
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.160
the results are, you know, the gains are a little slower,
76
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.399
which is fine. I mean, if you put on twenty
77
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:39.160
pounds in a year on each lift, you know, after
78
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:42.279
that first ten years, you're doing great. You're you're really
79
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:44.519
doing great. You prove sixty pounds on a twenty two
80
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:47.800
hundred pounds total twenty two to sixty, and then the
81
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.040
next year it's twenty three to twenty, and the next
82
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:53.360
year it's you know, twenty three eighty, and the next
83
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:56.120
year you're in the twenty four hundreds, which is you know,
84
00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:58.519
not a whole lot of people get to that. So
85
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.560
it's understanding that and putting the work in and taking
86
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:06.199
the patients. There's no quick route to it. If you
87
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:09.639
want to last, you can get there fast. You can
88
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.600
get there fast, but you're not gonna last very long
89
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:14.680
your career. You might be in and done and over
90
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.800
in ten years, whereas the other careers. You know, if
91
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.519
you do it right and you build it right, you
92
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:24.439
can be there twenty even thirty years. You know, it's
93
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:28.560
it's it's possible. It can be done, but you have
94
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.160
to do it right. So I just wish people would
95
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.920
have patience and understand how long it takes to heal
96
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:37.000
from everything. And this is the discipline to be doing
97
00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:39.639
the right thing almost all of the time.
98
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:40.759
You know, you can.
99
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:43.560
You can fudge a little here and fudge a little there,
100
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:44.639
you know, and go out and have a couple of
101
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:48.800
beers here, you know, once or twice a year, pat
102
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:51.279
and once or twice a month, once or twice a year,
103
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:56.319
you know, when you're celebrating some things, and then you know, eat,
104
00:05:56.720 --> 00:05:59.000
eat a little off which you would normally be eating,
105
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.920
you know, a couple times a month. That's fine, but
106
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:06.639
you still need to stick to a pretty pretty decent diet,
107
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:10.000
especially if you're trying to If you put on ten
108
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.360
pounds of muscle in a year, do that ten years
109
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.439
in a row. You're one hundred pounds heavier, and that's possible.
110
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:20.600
Ten pounds is doable. Ten pounds is very doable. You're
111
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:23.800
one hundred pounds heavier a decade later. You know, I
112
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:26.079
ended up when I graduated high school, I was like
113
00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.959
one hundred ninety five pounds. The heaviest I got was
114
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:31.639
three hundred and twenty five pounds. So I ended up
115
00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:35.439
putting on one hundred and thirty pounds of muscle over
116
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:40.319
you know, probably twenty thirty years, which is great. I
117
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.519
mean it was muscle. It's still here. I'm you know,
118
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.759
I'm still to ninety five. It's not going anywhere. You know,
119
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:50.040
It's it's good muscle. I'm still training, still doing stuff.
120
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.720
It's still here. So it slow, methodical builds over a
121
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:57.199
decent period of time. It's a matter of doing the grind.
122
00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.680
It's a matter of putting the work in. It's a
123
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.279
matter of building the tenon and ligament strength to hold
124
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:06.680
on to everything and the bone density to stay in
125
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.920
one piece. It makes a big, big difference. Just take
126
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:14.800
your time. Okay, that's the end of that one.
127
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:18.319
Everything you're saying is true because that's exactly and also too,
128
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:23.040
everything he's saying here can be applied to regular everyday life,
129
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:26.120
just not training, because what he's saying is all the training.
130
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:27.959
Everything you do, you build it over time.
131
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:31.120
I guess what that bone density, that muscle density, that's
132
00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:33.720
the key for a long life.
133
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:38.240
Right, Oh yeah, yeah, it'll it'll make the quality of
134
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:41.079
your life better all throughout your life, even when you
135
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:43.959
get hurt. I mean, I know it was in the
136
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.399
last few years I've had my issues. But you know what,
137
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.040
I'm still here, still going, still lifting, still doing all
138
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:52.279
this stuff. My body can recover from it. I can
139
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.920
recover from things that you know, I shouldn't be able
140
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:56.680
to recover from.
141
00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:00.839
And because you're recovering from not a depth, you know
142
00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:03.120
what I'm saying. Because if like a lot of people,
143
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:06.639
you get injured, your stationary, you're not training, not working,
144
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:11.279
so you lose. But if you have surplus of muscles,
145
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:14.600
surplus of strength, surplus of and so when that that
146
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.800
deficit hit, it's not a big.
147
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:20.600
Bullow right well, and then your body comes back from
148
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:23.480
the muscle, memory comes back from it. So it's but
149
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:26.480
again it's coming back and having the patience, you know.
150
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.120
I You know, like with my mom, she's she's she
151
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.200
was in a car accident in the car road like
152
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:36.519
eight times. She broke eight ribs and broke her wrist
153
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:41.440
in two places. She's you know, doing better. She's doing great.
154
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:45.679
She's moving around. Movement creates creates the healing blood in,
155
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:48.720
blood out, So you know, don't sit and say hey,
156
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.080
if she's just sat in hot sat in the hospital
157
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:54.240
bed and did nothing, yeah, and just waited it for
158
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:56.399
it to heal on its own, it's gonna heal super slow.
159
00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:58.679
She's never had problems. She's up, she's.
160
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.159
Walking around in the walker. Does it hurt her yeah?
161
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:02.000
Is she comfortable?
162
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:05.480
No? But every day she gets a little better.
163
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.679
And I mean the difference between where she was two
164
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:10.399
weeks ago and where she is now is night and
165
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:12.960
day because she gets up in that on that walker
166
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:17.159
and she's doing three and four laps around that around
167
00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:21.039
that hospital. So it's it's good around the whole entire hospital.
168
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:26.080
So it's she's doing well. She's cruising along. She's getting
169
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:29.679
everything back, and I mean her ribs are getting less painful,
170
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:33.799
which is which is good. Her stamina is coming back,
171
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:36.039
and it's the same thing. I got an older, very
172
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.879
dear friend of mine named Bruce, and he popped his
173
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:44.879
squad off of his off his knee while stepping off
174
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:48.200
a treadmill or just a freak accident, and I told
175
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:49.759
her he's like, oh, I'm never gonna be like, oh, yes,
176
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:52.960
you will. Don't listen to don't listen to the people
177
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:54.399
that are being negative about it.
178
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:55.080
You will.
179
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:58.320
It's just going to take time, get it reattached, and
180
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:00.480
we'll get you back to where you were. You were,
181
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:02.879
and here we are four months later.
182
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:03.360
He can.
183
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:06.000
He's walking around really good. He's doing things really good.
184
00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:09.279
He just deadlifted one hundred He's side handled deadlifted one
185
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:14.159
hundred and fifty pounds for three sets of five the
186
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:16.519
other day, or five sets of three, excuse me, the
187
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:19.360
other day. And you know what, it was good. You
188
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:23.559
know it's seventy six. He was able to side handle
189
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:27.200
the deadlift three hundred pounds before he fell. Now he's
190
00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:29.600
doing reps with half that weight. But you know what,
191
00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:32.639
it will come back. He's going to the gym, he's
192
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:35.840
putting the work in, he's doing the right things, you know,
193
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:40.159
and he's taking care of himself. It's just what you're willing.
194
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:43.000
If you're willing to put the work in for recovery,
195
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:45.360
it'll be there and your recovery you'll get back to normal.
196
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:47.559
It's the same thing with my thumb. You know, my
197
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:49.399
thumb was broke really bad.
198
00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.120
But oh man, it was twice the size, you know
199
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:55.240
what I'm saying, and people are just freaked down on
200
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:57.960
it's healed and it's basically almost normal.
201
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:01.360
Yeah, it's it's about and it's in the ninety percent
202
00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:04.399
of normal. I can you know, I can pick up
203
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.360
a fifty five pound bumper plate now and just squeeze
204
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:09.200
it and pick it up again. So, I mean, it's
205
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:12.720
the grip's coming back. Everything's going well with it. So
206
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:15.399
it's it's it's just putting the work in, putting the
207
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.480
time in, and even though it sucks and doesn't feel
208
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:22.720
good when you're going through, it's accepting that and moving forwards.
209
00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:28.679
So next question, doing your strongest competitive years.
210
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:29.360
What was it?
211
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:35.320
What was training experimental or unconventional? I hope, yeah, okay,
212
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.240
unconventional method you tried that surprise. What methods did you
213
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:47.559
try that worked surprisingly well and which one completely backfired? Well,
214
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:50.440
there's things that worked better than others. You got to
215
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:56.600
find that any exercise is better no exercise. When you're
216
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.039
doing things, some things work a lot better than others.
217
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:01.080
You heal from something is a lot better than others.
218
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.679
You learn what your body heals from. So I mean,
219
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:08.200
you do a twelve week training cycle of you know,
220
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:13.720
cheez just you pick a method and do a twelve
221
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:16.399
week training cycle for it. Pick the weights, set everything up,
222
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:18.879
see where your body's at when you start, see where
223
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:21.399
it's at when it's finished, and then after that one
224
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:24.480
try a different training cycle. James is really really good
225
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:27.559
at that. One of my training partners. He's extremely knowledgeable.
226
00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:30.080
He's very well educated, and he likes to try a
227
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:33.120
whole bunch of different methods and then when he finds
228
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:35.679
something that works for him. And then he also doesn't
229
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:38.120
hurt when you call ed Cohen and go, hey, what
230
00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:39.399
do you think of this, and he's like, well, let's
231
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:42.480
try it, see how it goes, and then he'll walk
232
00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:47.320
you through things as well. I mean, it really helps.
233
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.679
Things that backfired for me for the most part was
234
00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:53.080
when I was younger, I was just overtraining. I was
235
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:56.480
doing way too much, way too much. I could have
236
00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:01.399
healed much faster if I had got my the amount
237
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:05.039
of my sets right, the weight, the weight, and the
238
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:10.320
reps was wasn't actually that bad. I made pretty good
239
00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:12.799
choices with that. But the amount of work sets like
240
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:15.960
I do four sets, four heavy sets of loros. So
241
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:17.840
I do my warm ups and then four work sets,
242
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:20.200
four work sets, a lot pull downs, four sets of
243
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:23.320
why good black pull downs, you know, and I just
244
00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:30.879
really just do too much leg press. I would go
245
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:34.720
in there and I'd put every plate on there and
246
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.720
do a set of twenty, and then drop a plate
247
00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:39.279
and do as many as I can, drop another plate,
248
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:40.879
do as many as I can, drop another plate, and
249
00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:43.879
do as many again. It was just way too much work.
250
00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:44.960
You know.
251
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:46.639
If I want to do a drop set now, I'd
252
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.080
probably load the thing up all the way, do a
253
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:53.080
set so I couldn't do anymore, pull three plates off
254
00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:55.360
and do it again, and then pull three plates off
255
00:13:55.399 --> 00:13:57.200
and do it again, and then pull three plates off,
256
00:13:57.200 --> 00:14:01.120
and I'm probably good at that point. So and that
257
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:04.399
would be like the major exercise. I might do one
258
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:07.559
or two more, you know, a couple sets of leg extensions,
259
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:12.080
and then maybe one other thing for the quads, like
260
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:16.440
a zarch er squad or some other like a lunge
261
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:19.919
or something, and then quads are done. Just go to
262
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:23.679
work in my hamstrings and that's it. Because you can
263
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:30.039
people overtrain so bad. The desire is great, it is awesome,
264
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:34.919
but just understand how your body works. And if you're not,
265
00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:38.240
if you're up at night after training hard and you're
266
00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:40.399
sweating when you're trying to sleep and stuff like that,
267
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:43.919
you ever trained, plain and simple, you did too much.
268
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:47.039
Cut the sets down a little bit, you know, don't
269
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:50.159
don't cut the weight down, don't cut the reps or wherever.
270
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:52.080
Just cut the amount of sets. So if you're doing
271
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:56.200
four sets, cut to two. If you're doing three sets,
272
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:00.240
one maybe two, and if you're doing two sets, then
273
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.360
you probably got it right. You're probably doing seven different exercises.
274
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:06.360
So cut from seven for that body part to maybe
275
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:10.480
three or four and put the good work in. Good work,
276
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.440
good works, good work. When the muscle's torn, the muscle's torn,
277
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:16.440
keep tearing it apart and beating it up just makes
278
00:15:16.480 --> 00:15:20.679
it take longer to heal. So overtraining is probably even
279
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:24.799
worse than undertraining to a certain degree. I mean undertraining
280
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:26.200
to where you go out you do one thing and
281
00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:28.879
leave head. No, that's not going to work for you.
282
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:31.639
But going out putting some good work in, getting a
283
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.840
couple two, three good work sets in and switching exercises
284
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:39.639
and maybe having between three and five total exercises, so
285
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:44.039
you're going between you know, six and ten working sets.
286
00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:49.080
That's plenty. It's plenty. It's especially in your working for strength.
287
00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:52.840
I mean, it's plenty. It's so easy to overtrain, it
288
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:55.960
really is, and then your tens and ligaments get beat
289
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.200
up worse, and the whole thing just takes longer.
290
00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:00.960
So that's kind of stuff.
291
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:05.799
Well, like H's.
292
00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:07.159
Like even when I read the question, I kind of
293
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:10.120
thought was like preting method as in, like, you know
294
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:14.440
your deadlift dance, you know what I'm saying, Yeah.
295
00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:15.320
And I did. I did do it.
296
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:18.559
I did do a lot of experimental things with my
297
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:23.320
deadlift dance, my squat, my squat technique, my bench technique,
298
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:28.000
my my overhead technique, which it's funny, I'm now actually
299
00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:33.120
developing good overhead technique now, which is weird. I mean,
300
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:37.120
if I'd have done never stopped. Yeah, training never stops.
301
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.440
But some of the things that I'm doing now, I
302
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:41.320
wish I kind of would have dead twenty years ago.
303
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:44.000
My overhead press probably would have been much better than
304
00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:47.600
it was. But it's cool, and I'm just finding things
305
00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:49.320
that work for me and then passing them on to
306
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:53.240
the next generation. Stuff like that. I mean, I'm telling you, wait,
307
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.159
till you guys see Justin in a few years. This
308
00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:59.519
seventeen year old kid, he's he's he's gonna be a
309
00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:04.799
handful for people, but he really is. And the desire
310
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:08.039
that that I see coming out of him just totally
311
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:10.880
feeds me too. It really just kind of makes makes
312
00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:12.960
me remember what it was like when I was that
313
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:16.519
age and I was just so hungry, and a lot
314
00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:19.400
of stuff with him is kind of like, uh, tempering
315
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:21.039
him a little bit, making sure he's a little bit
316
00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:24.319
more under control with things and much more focused on
317
00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:27.039
what he's doing instead of just going and going raw
318
00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:30.519
because he'll he's got the kid. I can tell you,
319
00:17:30.559 --> 00:17:34.640
this kid's got no off switch. He's got no off switch.
320
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:37.759
So just kind of like Martinez when he was a kid.
321
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:40.799
You could see it. He had no off switch, you know,
322
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:45.920
and he can just push. This kid can push himself
323
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:49.319
to the point of breaking, so, which is good, but
324
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:52.319
it's gonna be you know, my job to kind of
325
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:56.880
be like, hey, hey, whoa look, come back, just we're
326
00:17:56.920 --> 00:17:59.119
gonna be okay, let's we can get up to the line,
327
00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:02.680
but let's not cross over that line so exactly. And
328
00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:04.960
the cool part is is for the most parties listening.
329
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:08.920
So that's good. Really, I'm really really impressed with him.
330
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:11.720
He's gonna be He's gonna be fun in a couple
331
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:13.960
of years.
332
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:15.079
So it's just.
333
00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:18.640
So there's a lot of training, there's a lot of
334
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:20.680
different ways to do things, and you find out what
335
00:18:20.720 --> 00:18:25.319
works you really you really do right now. You know,
336
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:28.079
find things that make you well rounded, that make you stable,
337
00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:31.519
stuff like that. But experiment with your your stance. I
338
00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:34.359
mean I found that deadlift stance and I ended up
339
00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:37.000
pulling way more out of that stance than I did
340
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:39.200
when I was pulling sumo. I really did like AE
341
00:18:39.279 --> 00:18:42.960
hundred and probably one hundred and forty pounds more that
342
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:46.119
I could pull sumo when I was you know, powerlifting
343
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.799
when I was younger, which is great. I mean, eight
344
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.119
forty three's a lot better than seven oh five any day.
345
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:57.200
So it's just, uh, you find things that work and
346
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.000
you continue to do them. So I was very happy
347
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:02.720
when I play with that, but strow End didn't have sumo,
348
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:04.960
so I had to switch styles, and it turns out
349
00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:07.319
that was a better style once I figured it out.
350
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:10.640
So play with foot placement, play with hand placement, play
351
00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:13.119
with play with every bit of it. Some guys bench
352
00:19:13.119 --> 00:19:15.359
really good with y grips. Some guys bench really good
353
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:17.640
with the close grip. Some guys bench really good with
354
00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:19.519
the meeting grip. It's all different. It's built on your
355
00:19:19.559 --> 00:19:23.680
own levers, it's built it's built on what works best
356
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.880
for you. So basically, play with the technique. There's basic.
357
00:19:28.759 --> 00:19:31.240
You want to start with the basics and then alter
358
00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:34.799
from there to best suit yourself. It's the same thing
359
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.279
when you're shooting. I mean, everybody's grip's a little bit different,
360
00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:40.039
but you find the grip that works for you when
361
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:42.400
you're holding a firearm, and you get to shoot a
362
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:44.440
whole lot better. Especially the way you brace, the way
363
00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:50.359
you hold everything, the way you're able to maintain stability
364
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:53.319
and not move the gun when you're pulling the trigger
365
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:56.079
makes a big difference when you're shooting. It applies all
366
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:58.799
the way across the board. Find the best technique that
367
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:03.359
works for you and and run with it, literally run
368
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:07.960
with it. So same thing with the yoke. I would
369
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:09.720
always start with my feet really close together.
370
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:11.680
I don't.
371
00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:15.480
I didn't when I did my first pick off the ground.
372
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:17.880
When I did that, I threw my hips forwards and
373
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:20.680
pop and pop my hips forwards and it was more
374
00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:23.000
of a hip lift than the legs. And then I
375
00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:26.599
just as the as the yoke swung, I just started
376
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:29.400
moving my feet with it. So my my takeoff off
377
00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:31.559
the line was pretty fast. And then I could get
378
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:34.680
up to a really high top speed because no point
379
00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:38.279
in time did the yoke wobble. So it made it
380
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:40.680
to where I could actually run really quick with those
381
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:44.039
And then you're just moving your feet fast, that's it,
382
00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:48.640
and trying to stay style. Yeah, yeah, I had some
383
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:52.559
really fast times. So but you know, it's it's just
384
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:55.240
little things that make a big difference in the techniques
385
00:20:55.279 --> 00:20:58.200
that you find that work for you. Really just start
386
00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:02.799
plain and simple. So yeah, experiment, write things down, yes,
387
00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:07.200
and try try other programs, find programs that work better
388
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:09.240
for you. Try to figure out what part of that
389
00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:10.319
program did work.
390
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:10.720
Better for you.
391
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:13.039
Was it the rep scheme, was it the set scheme?
392
00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:16.759
Was it you know, the training days or the exercises
393
00:21:16.759 --> 00:21:18.799
that were put together, like you did chess, shoulders and
394
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.000
triceps or you just did chest and triceps by itself
395
00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:25.400
and you shoulders by itself, and how you work the split,
396
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:28.559
it all matters. You find out where it works best
397
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:30.240
for you and you take it and you run with it.
398
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:32.319
That's it.
399
00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:35.599
Okay, all right, Well let's pivot and let's talk about
400
00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:38.039
the road because we talked about it last week.
401
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:41.000
And yeah, Nick was pretty much spot.
402
00:21:40.720 --> 00:21:43.160
On on a lot of the things.
403
00:21:43.599 --> 00:21:47.759
Yeah, I mean I knew Mitch was good at deadlift.
404
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:50.960
Well we knew that. I didn't really think anybody gonna
405
00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:52.279
be able to beat Mitch in the deadlift.
406
00:21:53.519 --> 00:22:00.519
Yeah, so Mitch ended up where to go? Come in,
407
00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:03.039
where's the weed to go? Here we go.
408
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:05.720
So Mitch ended up deadlifting like nine hundred and eighty
409
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:09.240
one pounds, which he probably could have pulled more, to
410
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:10.920
be quite honest with you, but that that's what.
411
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:14.240
He needed to do. Yeah, he's gonna pull when he needed.
412
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:17.680
He's got that deadlift contest with Thor coming up, so yeah,
413
00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:20.039
he was gonna pull when he needed. Austin has pulled
414
00:22:20.039 --> 00:22:25.680
over a thousand before, and he did about right about
415
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:28.880
what I thought he would. I thought, Trey and traded
416
00:22:28.920 --> 00:22:30.920
it at fifth at nine to twenty six. I figured
417
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:33.599
you pulled a little more of that. Same with Lucas. Lucas,
418
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:37.440
I figured we'd pull. I figured all three of those
419
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:42.039
guys would pull up into the nine fifty nine seventy
420
00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:47.599
six range. But you know, you never know what happens
421
00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:49.880
or how you come in, how you feel on that day.
422
00:22:50.079 --> 00:22:52.200
You could be off by two percent a day, and
423
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:55.559
that's that's what's gonna happen. Bryce Johnson stepping up with
424
00:22:55.640 --> 00:22:59.039
a nine hundred and fifty one pound deadlift. That guy
425
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:03.480
just keeps getting bigger and better, and he's he keeps
426
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:06.039
improving the way he's improving. You look out he's going
427
00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:07.799
to be and when he gets there, he's going to
428
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.319
be there a while. So yeah, he's good. There's a
429
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:14.559
lot of young, younger guys that are coming up. They're
430
00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:18.200
gonna be really, really something else. It's could be fun
431
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:20.359
to watch for the next five or six years. It
432
00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:24.640
really is. Lucas Hatton came in fourth with nine hundred
433
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:28.759
and thirty six pounds. That's pretty solid all the way around.
434
00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:34.400
But you know, I think Lucas is probably capable of
435
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:36.599
a little bit more than that, but it's still it's
436
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.960
a good lift. Trey Mitchell at nine twenty six. Now,
437
00:23:40.039 --> 00:23:44.079
I've seen Trey Pole one thy thirty six, you know,
438
00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:47.440
here in Vegas, So I don't know what was off
439
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:50.079
on that that day. But it's still not bad. It's
440
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:52.200
fifth overall, so you're right in the middle of the points.
441
00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:55.880
But I think he's capable more than that. Tom Evans
442
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:58.240
had a great deadlift at nine to eleven. For him,
443
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:03.039
that's pretty pretty darn solid. Martin's first contest coming back
444
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:07.880
and nine oh six, he's pulling over nine hundred again
445
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:10.440
and he's just getting back into it. I think his
446
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:12.920
next contest is World's Strongest Man, so that's gonna be
447
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:17.240
pretty pretty fun to watch. Andrew Burton pulled eight fifty
448
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:21.279
six and Nick Gordion pulled eight forty six, which is
449
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:24.880
a pretty solid deadlift for Nick. I mean, that's one
450
00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:28.799
of his areas where you know, he keeps improving, he
451
00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:32.640
keeps improving forty fifty pounds every year or even twenty
452
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:35.119
or thirty pounds a year over the next three, four
453
00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:37.319
or five years, he's he's gonna be right up there
454
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:46.799
with everybody else. The Sear Dumbell. Dumbell's range from two
455
00:24:46.839 --> 00:24:50.920
fifty three to three twenty five. Holy cow, I think
456
00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:54.440
everybody did it. Yeah, it was a tie, so Hooper
457
00:24:54.559 --> 00:24:59.519
and Lucas Hatten. When Lucas is like unbelievable at the
458
00:24:59.599 --> 00:25:04.000
Dumbell and so's so's Hooper. I mean, I don't think
459
00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:07.920
there's anything that Hooper's exceptionally bad at. There's just a
460
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:13.039
couple of things where he's just not you know, he'll
461
00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:14.200
get second and third.
462
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:18.119
Even with that. Hooper he came to the house and
463
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:21.759
remember he did some dumbbell training. Oh yeah, and that
464
00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:24.319
was the first time he's actually ever did it, I think.
465
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:28.440
Yeah, yeah, so it was pretty fun to watch. Yeah,
466
00:25:28.480 --> 00:25:30.440
So they both did three hundred pounds in tie for
467
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:34.119
first place. Austin and Dorade did great at two hundred
468
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:36.720
and eighty pounds. That's pretty pretty that's a lot of weight.
469
00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:40.119
And then Trade did the same thing, you know, which
470
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:43.920
is which is great for Trey. Thomas sevens did two
471
00:25:43.920 --> 00:25:46.759
to seventy four, so did Nick Gordion, which is that's
472
00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:48.960
pretty big for Nick. I mean, that's that's amazing.
473
00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:51.960
I'm three ties, yeah.
474
00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:54.160
For first, tie for third, tie for fifth.
475
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:59.079
So and then Martinez comes in at two hundred and
476
00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:02.599
fifty three pounds for one rep. So that's seventh in
477
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:06.240
the first two events and he ended up third. So
478
00:26:06.440 --> 00:26:10.279
what's that tell you? So Bryce didn't get any of
479
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:12.480
the any of the weights and needed to do Andrew Burton.
480
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:15.359
So that's a place Bryce has got a good overhead.
481
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:18.279
So that's that's something maybe he needs to work on
482
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:21.640
and get a little coaching for all that. Yeah, a
483
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:24.759
little bit of technique change things like that, because he's
484
00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:30.359
strong enough to do the two fifty three. I think, uh,
485
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:43.200
Stone's shoulder. H oh yeah, all right, stone to shoulder.
486
00:26:43.599 --> 00:26:48.160
It's old Hoggin's uh you know stone that's out there.
487
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:51.759
Austin got am I looking at this right?
488
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:52.880
Yeah.
489
00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:57.480
So Austin Androda got three reps plus one I think
490
00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:01.640
up got one extra point and then Martinez got three reps,
491
00:27:02.559 --> 00:27:04.759
which I knew he was going to do really well
492
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:07.839
on that one. That that was a given Austin. Austin
493
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:09.599
was a surprise on how well he did with it.
494
00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:12.119
Austin's really good at it. But I didn't realize he
495
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:14.559
was that good at it. But that's that's that was awesome.
496
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:19.000
That's more power to him. Bryce Johnson two reps and
497
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:23.880
then plus six points, so that's that's doing pretty good.
498
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:28.519
Mitchell Hooper, who's zeroed it last time in front of Arnold,
499
00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:32.240
got two reps this year with five points, and so
500
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:35.839
that put him fourth place in that one, so two
501
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:40.359
firsts and a fourth, so that's doing pretty good. I mean,
502
00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:45.960
it's it's damage control right there, which is great. Trey
503
00:27:46.000 --> 00:27:50.680
Mitchell got two reps. I I think Trey probably just
504
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:53.519
needs to get his hands around that thing more, and
505
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:55.559
I think he'll be fine with it, play with it
506
00:27:55.599 --> 00:27:59.400
a little bit more, because Trey picking up stones is
507
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:04.039
like unreal. Thommas s Evan's got a rep. That's awesome,
508
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:09.519
and then Nick Lucas and Andrew got a no lift,
509
00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:11.279
so that's gonna hurt.
510
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:17.480
Here shows Nick got three three points, so I don't
511
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:18.400
I'm not too sure on that.
512
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:20.400
Maybe this I think they're talking about with the big
513
00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:20.880
heavy one.
514
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:24.799
Oh yeah, yeah, no, no, that is exactly it. Yeah,
515
00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:27.880
that is the big heavy so.
516
00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:34.799
Okay. And then Stone Drag. This thing was.
517
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.279
The leaderboard on uh day one, which is right here.
518
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:47.279
Yeah, it was Hooper exactly exactly.
519
00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:49.720
So that was insane.
520
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:53.160
When I saw that, I was just like, Hey, that's
521
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:55.839
a big up for for Austin right there, because you
522
00:28:55.839 --> 00:28:58.920
know what I'm saying, he's been freaking putting in that
523
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.240
work to get that that first died for that day.
524
00:29:02.079 --> 00:29:03.720
He really is. Yeah.
525
00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:04.720
Drey came in.
526
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:08.880
Third Lucas came in fourth, Martinez was tied with Bryce
527
00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:15.599
for fifth place, Evans at seven, Nick Gordion at eight,
528
00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:19.200
and Andrew Burton at ninth. So that was a hell
529
00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:20.680
of a hell of a first day.
530
00:29:21.559 --> 00:29:23.880
Yeah, oh for sure, that's it.
531
00:29:24.160 --> 00:29:28.279
And then we got Stone to drag. This was an interesting.
532
00:29:27.960 --> 00:29:33.480
Event, yeah, because that thing was like nuts. I'm starting with.
533
00:29:36.440 --> 00:29:41.599
Yeah, diddy Stone's way four fourteen and three eighteen host.
534
00:29:43.240 --> 00:29:45.599
I don't know if that's right, but it's pretty pretty
535
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:49.279
darn close. Traditionally they carried the stones the same time
536
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:52.440
when he ten. However, the athletes were also allowed to
537
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:56.160
move quick to move them individually using a deckwalk technique,
538
00:29:56.519 --> 00:29:58.240
which I think a lot of the guys did because
539
00:29:58.240 --> 00:30:01.359
it was a heck of a lot faster it that way. Yes,
540
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:07.759
Martinez just killed it. He finished the course in one
541
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:11.599
minute and thirty one point two three seconds, and then
542
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:16.200
Bryce Johnson, big Bryce, with all that body mass and stuff,
543
00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:19.119
did it one thirty one point ninety seven. So there's
544
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:22.200
a little over a half a second between them on
545
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:26.759
something that big and that major. That's crazy. And then uh,
546
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:32.559
Nick carried everything in got third place plus two, so
547
00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:36.319
he went twenty six twenty six feet with it. Mitchell
548
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:38.960
Hooper did what he needed to do. He did the
549
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:45.640
cap CAP plus three with twenty four twenty four feet
550
00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:50.519
nine inches. Thomas Sevens did the CAP plus three at
551
00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:55.680
twenty two to eleven inches, Andrew Burton did Cap plus
552
00:30:55.720 --> 00:31:03.240
three twenty two feet seven inches, Lucas did Cat plus
553
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:07.480
four at eighteen feet eleven inches, Austin Andrade did Cat
554
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:12.079
plus five fourteen feet one inch. Now that's gonna hurt.
555
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:16.599
And then Trey did Cat plus five twelve feet eight inches,
556
00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:19.920
which that's that's gonna hurt. Tray a little quite a bit.
557
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:24.079
But you see the points jumble around a little bit
558
00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:29.759
right there. But yet again Mitch's fourth yep, so right
559
00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:33.160
in the middle, real consistent the Austrian oak.
560
00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:34.599
Here we go.
561
00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:39.160
Yeah, big tray four one hundred and ninety five kilos,
562
00:31:39.200 --> 00:31:43.599
four hundred and thirty pounds, cleans and presses it for
563
00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:49.640
five ungodly reps. That is absolutely amazing. Way to go, Tray.
564
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:54.799
I just about fell off the fell off the stool
565
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:56.680
at work I was sitting on when I was watching that.
566
00:31:56.799 --> 00:31:59.000
I was like, oh my god, did he really just
567
00:31:59.079 --> 00:32:00.240
do that?
568
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:00.759
That's it?
569
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:06.359
Yeah, that was quite possibly one of the most amazing
570
00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:09.400
things because I'm not even sure if Sadronus lifted that
571
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:13.160
thing that many times, so that was pretty impressive. And
572
00:32:13.200 --> 00:32:17.240
then he got Lucas Hatton and Thomas Evans both with
573
00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:23.079
four reps. Yeah, so that's both of those guys. Trey
574
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:25.039
and Lucas were at the bottom of the last one
575
00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:26.759
and now they're both at at the top of this one.
576
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:30.039
Thomas Evans getting good points up in third place, and
577
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:33.559
then in fourth place. Here we go again, Mitchell Hooper
578
00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:36.920
three reps with one hundred and thirty pounds and Austin
579
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:41.720
at four hundred and thirty pounds. So the thing that
580
00:32:41.759 --> 00:32:45.839
caught cost to Austin, you know, was the event before that.
581
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:50.920
So right now Mitchell's still looking pretty good because the
582
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:52.960
people that are doing better than some things have already
583
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:57.480
had a bad event. Mitchell just was consistent all the
584
00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:04.519
way through it. Then they got to uh the rapt yep,
585
00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:07.400
the ramp the ramp rage, and.
586
00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:11.680
Where is March. He definitely called the dark horse on
587
00:33:11.680 --> 00:33:13.039
this one. For that ramp rage.
588
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:15.359
Oh, I knew, I knew Nick was going to kill
589
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:18.319
that event. I knew he was going to and he did.
590
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:21.279
He got out of there showed what he could do,
591
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:23.519
and he's quick and he could That guy can move
592
00:33:24.319 --> 00:33:27.440
and you know he's his technique on it is also
593
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:30.599
very very good, so kind of knew that. Andrew Burton
594
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:33.279
came in and did forty four seconds, Nick did thirty eight.
595
00:33:33.759 --> 00:33:39.240
Martinez Lea six came in finished in forty nine seconds.
596
00:33:39.839 --> 00:33:40.519
Now on the.
597
00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:47.839
On the Austrian Oak, he got sixth place with two reps,
598
00:33:48.319 --> 00:33:52.119
so not great, not bad, but still good points. So
599
00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.359
he comes in here he gets third place, good points.
600
00:33:54.799 --> 00:34:00.000
Lucas Hatten forty nine points, Trey Mitchell or fourth place,
601
00:34:00.400 --> 00:34:03.839
Trey Mitchell, fifth place in a minute seventeen Austin and
602
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:09.880
Roddy sixth at one minute in twenty one seconds. Bryce
603
00:34:11.119 --> 00:34:17.239
Bryce did had cap plus one twenty nine feet and
604
00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:20.280
then Thomas Evans, who looked like he heard his bice
605
00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:22.880
up a little bit there. Sorry Tom, he'll look quick.
606
00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:27.880
Bud went twenty six to ten with one with one event,
607
00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:31.639
with one cap left, with one to implement left, and
608
00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:36.679
then Hooper did cap one and didn't bother going at
609
00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:38.639
all with the last one because he didn't need to.
610
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:42.199
He was that far ahead from winning the first two
611
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:51.119
events and then getting fourth, fourth, and when.
612
00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:52.960
When?
613
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:57.800
So he was so far ahead after those. Yeah, he
614
00:34:58.559 --> 00:35:00.760
didn't he didn't need to go all which is smart
615
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:04.000
because he doesn't beat himself up either. Her owners don't
616
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:05.519
like it because they want to see you going all
617
00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:08.599
out on everything. But the thing is, it doesn't make
618
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:11.400
sense to to do that. He's got other things on
619
00:35:11.440 --> 00:35:16.639
the line and things coming down the line. So congratulations, Mitch,
620
00:35:16.760 --> 00:35:21.480
that's your number, that's your fourth one. You're halfway to Todrenis.
621
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:30.519
So yeah, that's that's really good. That might even I'm
622
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:33.280
trying to think because I know b got three, and
623
00:35:33.320 --> 00:35:37.000
I think Thor got three. Trying to think of who
624
00:35:37.039 --> 00:35:41.320
else got three, Poundstone got two, So Drena's got eight,
625
00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:48.519
there's I know, I think Lawless got one. Trying to
626
00:35:48.519 --> 00:35:52.119
think of who else that might be the most besides
627
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:56.000
Sodrena's so kind of kind of interesting on that one.
628
00:35:56.320 --> 00:35:58.519
I'd have to double check it on the internet, but
629
00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:00.960
I can't do that right at this moment. So that's
630
00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:05.039
pretty cool. And then the women. Olga won the women's
631
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:09.920
which was absolutely amazing. Being consistent, Lucy Underdown pulled an
632
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:15.480
amazing seven oh one. That's just that that woman can
633
00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:19.599
deadlift on any bar. The hard part about the elephant
634
00:36:19.639 --> 00:36:22.880
bar is it's gonna wiggle a lot, and so your
635
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:25.519
core stability, you have to have a really strong core.
636
00:36:25.960 --> 00:36:30.280
You can you can pull more, but it's really hard
637
00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:33.000
to stabilize it at the top if you pull too hard,
638
00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:36.039
too fast, and as you're pulling, if it's not smooth,
639
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:38.119
it's going to jerk all over the place and make
640
00:36:38.159 --> 00:36:41.360
it make it hard to do anyway. And then Jennifer
641
00:36:41.480 --> 00:36:44.400
Lyall pulled six't eighty one and Oliga did six twenty one,
642
00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:53.800
which is absolutely insane. That's just you know, absolutely killing it.
643
00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:59.320
The overhead gauntlet. Okay, I know, you know pretty much
644
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:03.320
expected uh one hundred and ninety five pounds for one rep.
645
00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:06.719
Alga did the one hundred and ninety for one rep.
646
00:37:06.840 --> 00:37:11.960
So now real consistent in there. Because Olga was third.
647
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:16.800
Now here's Olga the second. Inez was seventh with five
648
00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:19.559
to eighty one in the deadlift, so you know, here
649
00:37:19.639 --> 00:37:21.440
she is consistent, which is going to put her up
650
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:23.440
near the top. Right off the gate, I think she
651
00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:28.679
was in first place after that. Angelica Jardine did one
652
00:37:28.719 --> 00:37:32.079
hundred and eighty pounds musta peacock one seventy, Katie one
653
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:37.239
seventy also, so it was pretty it's pretty heavy dumbbell
654
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:42.519
oh yeah, oh yeah, stewing the shoulder Agelicot Jardine did
655
00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:47.000
seven reps. That was absolutely out of control, that thing. Yeah,
656
00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:49.159
that was pretty crazy. And then Inez comes back with
657
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:55.280
six and Olga had six. Now Inez had five. You know,
658
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:57.800
the bonus points on the side was at five, so
659
00:37:58.440 --> 00:38:02.000
Inez got second, Olga got third, and then Hannah got
660
00:38:02.000 --> 00:38:06.800
two reps. So there was a big difference between first, second,
661
00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:10.519
the first second, third. We're very far ahead of fourth
662
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:15.320
and everybody else down. Lucy got no lift, so I mean,
663
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:18.519
and her back's really strong. It's it's probably just a
664
00:38:18.559 --> 00:38:22.280
technique thing, but it's a pretty big separation when you
665
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:24.159
get seven, six, six and two.
666
00:38:26.239 --> 00:38:26.599
Yeah.
667
00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:30.719
So those girls are just on this event, are just
668
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:37.800
really good. The stone drag event, first lady had to
669
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:41.079
carry two large stones combined with the weight four hundred
670
00:38:41.079 --> 00:38:44.679
and twenty five pounds, loaded them onto a sled and
671
00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:48.039
the next task was to pull it back. Now, Angelica
672
00:38:48.199 --> 00:38:54.599
again had a great event here forty nine seconds, Lucy
673
00:38:54.679 --> 00:38:59.800
underdown one eight, Olga again in the top three, one ten,
674
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:04.599
zero point seventy five, and then Hannah Az went down
675
00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:06.639
a little bit. She was at one point four to four,
676
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:09.360
so she she kind of fell down a little bit.
677
00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:15.280
It's it's being the most consistent throughout everything is what's
678
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:19.559
going to put you at the top. The American Oak
679
00:39:19.920 --> 00:39:24.920
uh sixty nine AA has got six reps with two
680
00:39:25.039 --> 00:39:33.320
sixty nine. Am unbelievable. That's absolutely amazing. Angelica got five reps.
681
00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:38.920
Olga got five reps. So again top three, again in
682
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:41.119
the top three, right right where she needed to be.
683
00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:46.079
Katie Blundering got three reps with two sixty nine, and
684
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:50.239
then Jennifer Lyle got two reps and then everybody else used.
685
00:39:50.079 --> 00:39:51.519
The lighter, lighter logs.
686
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:55.360
So, I mean, it's the consistency of being up there
687
00:39:55.480 --> 00:39:58.360
as is up there. But she had a couple where
688
00:39:58.400 --> 00:40:03.559
she dropped down a little bit, which you know, brought
689
00:40:03.599 --> 00:40:08.039
her back a little bit. The where to go the seventh,
690
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:18.360
the seventh in the deadlift and wow, I'm doing good here,
691
00:40:18.679 --> 00:40:22.480
and the fifth in the stone drag it hurts a
692
00:40:22.519 --> 00:40:27.880
little bit. So the consistency threw out these things. In
693
00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:32.400
the rampage, AA has absolutely killed it in thirty five seconds.
694
00:40:32.559 --> 00:40:36.360
Who's right behind her Olga getting second place in thirty
695
00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:39.199
eight point nine two seconds, which gave her the win.
696
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:42.559
That's what gave her the win. It's just the consistency
697
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:45.480
all the way through. I don't think.
698
00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:52.519
That she really didn't have any bad Yes.
699
00:40:52.719 --> 00:40:54.800
Olga didn't have any bad events, and she didn't win
700
00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:57.920
an event. She got second and third. She either got
701
00:40:57.960 --> 00:41:03.599
second or third in these events, which is why she won.
702
00:41:03.719 --> 00:41:06.719
She got second in that one. Hannah Lindsay got third
703
00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:09.880
in the up the Ramp of Missip Melissa Peacock got
704
00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:13.559
fourth in it in forty three seconds, which is saying
705
00:41:13.559 --> 00:41:14.280
something right there.
706
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:18.719
That's running up that ramp. That ramp gets that.
707
00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:21.199
Ramp gets real really fast when you're going uphill real
708
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:26.840
with these things. So congratulations to everybody. An amazing events
709
00:41:26.840 --> 00:41:30.000
to watch for both the men and the women. It's
710
00:41:30.079 --> 00:41:33.840
just super entertaining and it's super fun. So congratulations to
711
00:41:34.480 --> 00:41:37.360
all of you. Job well done. It's it's fun to
712
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:40.280
watch and it's fun to look at it, see where
713
00:41:40.320 --> 00:41:42.880
they were successful, see where people miss on technique things
714
00:41:42.880 --> 00:41:45.000
and little things make a big difference at that level.
715
00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:48.719
You know, it's kind of funny how it is. But
716
00:41:49.239 --> 00:41:51.840
every little bit when the competition is all that close
717
00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:57.800
together makes a big difference. So but moving on, what
718
00:41:57.880 --> 00:41:58.639
else is going on?
719
00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:02.360
Well, you know, not too much else is going on.
720
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:04.320
We'reeing out of this now.
721
00:42:05.280 --> 00:42:07.760
Yeah, well you know, now it's time to take ourselves
722
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:09.559
out of it because guess what we covered it. We
723
00:42:09.599 --> 00:42:13.480
talked about our predictions from last week and covered because
724
00:42:13.559 --> 00:42:16.840
you know, you're basically spot on in the positionings and
725
00:42:17.159 --> 00:42:19.440
even in each individual event for these men.
726
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:21.280
Well, I was talking about the guys in the events
727
00:42:21.280 --> 00:42:23.920
I figured about. I was a little Austin did better
728
00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:27.400
in a couple of events, and the Great God bless him.
729
00:42:27.559 --> 00:42:30.039
I could be more happy for him, more proud of
730
00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:32.159
him too, So that was kind of cool.
731
00:42:32.440 --> 00:42:34.400
The stone lift. I knew he would do pretty good,
732
00:42:34.400 --> 00:42:36.079
but I didn't realize he was with you that good.
733
00:42:36.480 --> 00:42:39.400
So that's awesome. Congratulations, very well deserved.
734
00:42:40.199 --> 00:42:44.199

what I'm saying, will open up and answer those questions.
31
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:08.000
Yeah, yeah, So first question for today, since we're jumping
32
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.080
right to it. After dicads competing at the highest levels
33
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:14.639
and strength sports from powerlifting World championships to multiple World
34
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:20.039
Strongest Man appearances, what's one lesson about training, recovery or
35
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:29.120
competition that you wish every young athlete truly understood. Yeah,
36
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:31.960
not to be in a hurry. To be quite honest
37
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:34.000
with you, a lot of these young kids are in
38
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.680
such a hurry to get there. They're not taking their
39
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.400
time to build it the right way, and they're in
40
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:42.919
a hurry. They don't understand what it takes for the
41
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:46.000
body to heal, how long the healing times should be.
42
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:48.719
They read online that the bodybuilders heal at this time
43
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:51.800
and this guy heals this time, and the healing times
44
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:56.000
aren't right yet, and they don't understand that. And so
45
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.199
we're muscle recover in two to three days. The tenons
46
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:02.000
and ligments don't heal between six and eight days. And
47
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:05.800
if you're worried about competing in strength sports, the most
48
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.759
important thing that needs to heal is the tenons and ligaments.
49
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.960
If the tenons and ligaments don't heal and the muscle
50
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.479
gets stronger faster than the connective tissue can withstand your
51
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.319
tenens and ligaments, you're going to run into injuries. You're
52
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:21.840
going to run into problems, and in some cases it'll
53
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:23.520
drastically shorten people's careers.
54
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:24.960
It really will.
55
00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:28.719
And so the biggest thing is patience, and it's the
56
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.560
hardest thing because the kids just want to train and
57
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:34.759
train and train and overtrain and throw in more reps
58
00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:37.000
here and throwing more reps there. It's like, dude, just
59
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.800
stick to the plan. If you stick to the plan
60
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.000
and have faith in the plan and work the plan,
61
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:44.520
you're going to get where you want to be and
62
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:46.960
the amount of rest that you get between everything. If
63
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:50.400
you fully recovered when you come in, including your tenons
64
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.840
and connective tissue, you're almost never gonna get hurt unless
65
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.479
you do something moronically stupid. But if you don't do that,
66
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.919
you'll almost never get hurt. Which is that that's the goal.
67
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.159
If you can get through things without getting broken, without
68
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:07.919
getting damaged, your slow, methodical process will get you there.
69
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.800
Thirty three pounds on a lift a year, on each
70
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.639
lift a year for ten years. You know, it turns
71
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:22.439
you from an average lifter to world class, world champion
72
00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:25.800
level lifter. And it's just having that kind of patience
73
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.000
over a decade to put that work in and then
74
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:31.199
you'll really start to see the results. And after that
75
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.160
the results are, you know, the gains are a little slower,
76
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.399
which is fine. I mean, if you put on twenty
77
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:39.160
pounds in a year on each lift, you know, after
78
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:42.279
that first ten years, you're doing great. You're you're really
79
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:44.519
doing great. You prove sixty pounds on a twenty two
80
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:47.800
hundred pounds total twenty two to sixty, and then the
81
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.040
next year it's twenty three to twenty, and the next
82
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:53.360
year it's you know, twenty three eighty, and the next
83
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:56.120
year you're in the twenty four hundreds, which is you know,
84
00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:58.519
not a whole lot of people get to that. So
85
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.560
it's understanding that and putting the work in and taking
86
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:06.199
the patients. There's no quick route to it. If you
87
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:09.639
want to last, you can get there fast. You can
88
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.600
get there fast, but you're not gonna last very long
89
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:14.680
your career. You might be in and done and over
90
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.800
in ten years, whereas the other careers. You know, if
91
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.519
you do it right and you build it right, you
92
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:24.439
can be there twenty even thirty years. You know, it's
93
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:28.560
it's it's possible. It can be done, but you have
94
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.160
to do it right. So I just wish people would
95
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.920
have patience and understand how long it takes to heal
96
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:37.000
from everything. And this is the discipline to be doing
97
00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:39.639
the right thing almost all of the time.
98
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:40.759
You know, you can.
99
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:43.560
You can fudge a little here and fudge a little there,
100
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:44.639
you know, and go out and have a couple of
101
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:48.800
beers here, you know, once or twice a year, pat
102
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:51.279
and once or twice a month, once or twice a year,
103
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:56.319
you know, when you're celebrating some things, and then you know, eat,
104
00:05:56.720 --> 00:05:59.000
eat a little off which you would normally be eating,
105
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.920
you know, a couple times a month. That's fine, but
106
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:06.639
you still need to stick to a pretty pretty decent diet,
107
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:10.000
especially if you're trying to If you put on ten
108
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.360
pounds of muscle in a year, do that ten years
109
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.439
in a row. You're one hundred pounds heavier, and that's possible.
110
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:20.600
Ten pounds is doable. Ten pounds is very doable. You're
111
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:23.800
one hundred pounds heavier a decade later. You know, I
112
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:26.079
ended up when I graduated high school, I was like
113
00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.959
one hundred ninety five pounds. The heaviest I got was
114
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:31.639
three hundred and twenty five pounds. So I ended up
115
00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:35.439
putting on one hundred and thirty pounds of muscle over
116
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:40.319
you know, probably twenty thirty years, which is great. I
117
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.519
mean it was muscle. It's still here. I'm you know,
118
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.759
I'm still to ninety five. It's not going anywhere. You know,
119
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:50.040
It's it's good muscle. I'm still training, still doing stuff.
120
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.720
It's still here. So it slow, methodical builds over a
121
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:57.199
decent period of time. It's a matter of doing the grind.
122
00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.680
It's a matter of putting the work in. It's a
123
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.279
matter of building the tenon and ligament strength to hold
124
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:06.680
on to everything and the bone density to stay in
125
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.920
one piece. It makes a big, big difference. Just take
126
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:14.800
your time. Okay, that's the end of that one.
127
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:18.319
Everything you're saying is true because that's exactly and also too,
128
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:23.040
everything he's saying here can be applied to regular everyday life,
129
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:26.120
just not training, because what he's saying is all the training.
130
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:27.959
Everything you do, you build it over time.
131
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:31.120
I guess what that bone density, that muscle density, that's
132
00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:33.720
the key for a long life.
133
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:38.240
Right, Oh yeah, yeah, it'll it'll make the quality of
134
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:41.079
your life better all throughout your life, even when you
135
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:43.959
get hurt. I mean, I know it was in the
136
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.399
last few years I've had my issues. But you know what,
137
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.040
I'm still here, still going, still lifting, still doing all
138
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:52.279
this stuff. My body can recover from it. I can
139
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.920
recover from things that you know, I shouldn't be able
140
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:56.680
to recover from.
141
00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:00.839
And because you're recovering from not a depth, you know
142
00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:03.120
what I'm saying. Because if like a lot of people,
143
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:06.639
you get injured, your stationary, you're not training, not working,
144
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:11.279
so you lose. But if you have surplus of muscles,
145
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:14.600
surplus of strength, surplus of and so when that that
146
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.800
deficit hit, it's not a big.
147
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:20.600
Bullow right well, and then your body comes back from
148
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:23.480
the muscle, memory comes back from it. So it's but
149
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:26.480
again it's coming back and having the patience, you know.
150
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.120
I You know, like with my mom, she's she's she
151
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.200
was in a car accident in the car road like
152
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:36.519
eight times. She broke eight ribs and broke her wrist
153
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:41.440
in two places. She's you know, doing better. She's doing great.
154
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:45.679
She's moving around. Movement creates creates the healing blood in,
155
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:48.720
blood out, So you know, don't sit and say hey,
156
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.080
if she's just sat in hot sat in the hospital
157
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:54.240
bed and did nothing, yeah, and just waited it for
158
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:56.399
it to heal on its own, it's gonna heal super slow.
159
00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:58.679
She's never had problems. She's up, she's.
160
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.159
Walking around in the walker. Does it hurt her yeah?
161
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:02.000
Is she comfortable?
162
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:05.480
No? But every day she gets a little better.
163
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.679
And I mean the difference between where she was two
164
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:10.399
weeks ago and where she is now is night and
165
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:12.960
day because she gets up in that on that walker
166
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:17.159
and she's doing three and four laps around that around
167
00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:21.039
that hospital. So it's it's good around the whole entire hospital.
168
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:26.080
So it's she's doing well. She's cruising along. She's getting
169
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:29.679
everything back, and I mean her ribs are getting less painful,
170
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:33.799
which is which is good. Her stamina is coming back,
171
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:36.039
and it's the same thing. I got an older, very
172
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.879
dear friend of mine named Bruce, and he popped his
173
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:44.879
squad off of his off his knee while stepping off
174
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:48.200
a treadmill or just a freak accident, and I told
175
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:49.759
her he's like, oh, I'm never gonna be like, oh, yes,
176
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:52.960
you will. Don't listen to don't listen to the people
177
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:54.399
that are being negative about it.
178
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:55.080
You will.
179
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:58.320
It's just going to take time, get it reattached, and
180
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:00.480
we'll get you back to where you were. You were,
181
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:02.879
and here we are four months later.
182
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:03.360
He can.
183
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:06.000
He's walking around really good. He's doing things really good.
184
00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:09.279
He just deadlifted one hundred He's side handled deadlifted one
185
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:14.159
hundred and fifty pounds for three sets of five the
186
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:16.519
other day, or five sets of three, excuse me, the
187
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:19.360
other day. And you know what, it was good. You
188
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:23.559
know it's seventy six. He was able to side handle
189
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:27.200
the deadlift three hundred pounds before he fell. Now he's
190
00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:29.600
doing reps with half that weight. But you know what,
191
00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:32.639
it will come back. He's going to the gym, he's
192
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:35.840
putting the work in, he's doing the right things, you know,
193
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:40.159
and he's taking care of himself. It's just what you're willing.
194
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:43.000
If you're willing to put the work in for recovery,
195
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:45.360
it'll be there and your recovery you'll get back to normal.
196
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:47.559
It's the same thing with my thumb. You know, my
197
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:49.399
thumb was broke really bad.
198
00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.120
But oh man, it was twice the size, you know
199
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:55.240
what I'm saying, and people are just freaked down on
200
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:57.960
it's healed and it's basically almost normal.
201
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:01.360
Yeah, it's it's about and it's in the ninety percent
202
00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:04.399
of normal. I can you know, I can pick up
203
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.360
a fifty five pound bumper plate now and just squeeze
204
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:09.200
it and pick it up again. So, I mean, it's
205
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:12.720
the grip's coming back. Everything's going well with it. So
206
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:15.399
it's it's it's just putting the work in, putting the
207
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.480
time in, and even though it sucks and doesn't feel
208
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:22.720
good when you're going through, it's accepting that and moving forwards.
209
00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:28.679
So next question, doing your strongest competitive years.
210
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:29.360
What was it?
211
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:35.320
What was training experimental or unconventional? I hope, yeah, okay,
212
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.240
unconventional method you tried that surprise. What methods did you
213
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:47.559
try that worked surprisingly well and which one completely backfired? Well,
214
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:50.440
there's things that worked better than others. You got to
215
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:56.600
find that any exercise is better no exercise. When you're
216
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.039
doing things, some things work a lot better than others.
217
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:01.080
You heal from something is a lot better than others.
218
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.679
You learn what your body heals from. So I mean,
219
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:08.200
you do a twelve week training cycle of you know,
220
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:13.720
cheez just you pick a method and do a twelve
221
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:16.399
week training cycle for it. Pick the weights, set everything up,
222
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:18.879
see where your body's at when you start, see where
223
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:21.399
it's at when it's finished, and then after that one
224
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:24.480
try a different training cycle. James is really really good
225
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:27.559
at that. One of my training partners. He's extremely knowledgeable.
226
00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:30.080
He's very well educated, and he likes to try a
227
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:33.120
whole bunch of different methods and then when he finds
228
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:35.679
something that works for him. And then he also doesn't
229
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:38.120
hurt when you call ed Cohen and go, hey, what
230
00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:39.399
do you think of this, and he's like, well, let's
231
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:42.480
try it, see how it goes, and then he'll walk
232
00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:47.320
you through things as well. I mean, it really helps.
233
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.679
Things that backfired for me for the most part was
234
00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:53.080
when I was younger, I was just overtraining. I was
235
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:56.480
doing way too much, way too much. I could have
236
00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:01.399
healed much faster if I had got my the amount
237
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:05.039
of my sets right, the weight, the weight, and the
238
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:10.320
reps was wasn't actually that bad. I made pretty good
239
00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:12.799
choices with that. But the amount of work sets like
240
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:15.960
I do four sets, four heavy sets of loros. So
241
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:17.840
I do my warm ups and then four work sets,
242
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:20.200
four work sets, a lot pull downs, four sets of
243
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:23.320
why good black pull downs, you know, and I just
244
00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:30.879
really just do too much leg press. I would go
245
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:34.720
in there and I'd put every plate on there and
246
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.720
do a set of twenty, and then drop a plate
247
00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:39.279
and do as many as I can, drop another plate,
248
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:40.879
do as many as I can, drop another plate, and
249
00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:43.879
do as many again. It was just way too much work.
250
00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:44.960
You know.
251
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:46.639
If I want to do a drop set now, I'd
252
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.080
probably load the thing up all the way, do a
253
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:53.080
set so I couldn't do anymore, pull three plates off
254
00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:55.360
and do it again, and then pull three plates off
255
00:13:55.399 --> 00:13:57.200
and do it again, and then pull three plates off,
256
00:13:57.200 --> 00:14:01.120
and I'm probably good at that point. So and that
257
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:04.399
would be like the major exercise. I might do one
258
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:07.559
or two more, you know, a couple sets of leg extensions,
259
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:12.080
and then maybe one other thing for the quads, like
260
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:16.440
a zarch er squad or some other like a lunge
261
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:19.919
or something, and then quads are done. Just go to
262
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:23.679
work in my hamstrings and that's it. Because you can
263
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:30.039
people overtrain so bad. The desire is great, it is awesome,
264
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:34.919
but just understand how your body works. And if you're not,
265
00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:38.240
if you're up at night after training hard and you're
266
00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:40.399
sweating when you're trying to sleep and stuff like that,
267
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:43.919
you ever trained, plain and simple, you did too much.
268
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:47.039
Cut the sets down a little bit, you know, don't
269
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:50.159
don't cut the weight down, don't cut the reps or wherever.
270
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:52.080
Just cut the amount of sets. So if you're doing
271
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:56.200
four sets, cut to two. If you're doing three sets,
272
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:00.240
one maybe two, and if you're doing two sets, then
273
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.360
you probably got it right. You're probably doing seven different exercises.
274
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:06.360
So cut from seven for that body part to maybe
275
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:10.480
three or four and put the good work in. Good work,
276
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.440
good works, good work. When the muscle's torn, the muscle's torn,
277
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:16.440
keep tearing it apart and beating it up just makes
278
00:15:16.480 --> 00:15:20.679
it take longer to heal. So overtraining is probably even
279
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:24.799
worse than undertraining to a certain degree. I mean undertraining
280
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:26.200
to where you go out you do one thing and
281
00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:28.879
leave head. No, that's not going to work for you.
282
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:31.639
But going out putting some good work in, getting a
283
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.840
couple two, three good work sets in and switching exercises
284
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:39.639
and maybe having between three and five total exercises, so
285
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:44.039
you're going between you know, six and ten working sets.
286
00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:49.080
That's plenty. It's plenty. It's especially in your working for strength.
287
00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:52.840
I mean, it's plenty. It's so easy to overtrain, it
288
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:55.960
really is, and then your tens and ligaments get beat
289
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.200
up worse, and the whole thing just takes longer.
290
00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:00.960
So that's kind of stuff.
291
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:05.799
Well, like H's.
292
00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:07.159
Like even when I read the question, I kind of
293
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:10.120
thought was like preting method as in, like, you know
294
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:14.440
your deadlift dance, you know what I'm saying, Yeah.
295
00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:15.320
And I did. I did do it.
296
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:18.559
I did do a lot of experimental things with my
297
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:23.320
deadlift dance, my squat, my squat technique, my bench technique,
298
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:28.000
my my overhead technique, which it's funny, I'm now actually
299
00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:33.120
developing good overhead technique now, which is weird. I mean,
300
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:37.120
if I'd have done never stopped. Yeah, training never stops.
301
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.440
But some of the things that I'm doing now, I
302
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:41.320
wish I kind of would have dead twenty years ago.
303
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:44.000
My overhead press probably would have been much better than
304
00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:47.600
it was. But it's cool, and I'm just finding things
305
00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:49.320
that work for me and then passing them on to
306
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:53.240
the next generation. Stuff like that. I mean, I'm telling you, wait,
307
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.159
till you guys see Justin in a few years. This
308
00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:59.519
seventeen year old kid, he's he's he's gonna be a
309
00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:04.799
handful for people, but he really is. And the desire
310
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:08.039
that that I see coming out of him just totally
311
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:10.880
feeds me too. It really just kind of makes makes
312
00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:12.960
me remember what it was like when I was that
313
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:16.519
age and I was just so hungry, and a lot
314
00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:19.400
of stuff with him is kind of like, uh, tempering
315
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:21.039
him a little bit, making sure he's a little bit
316
00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:24.319
more under control with things and much more focused on
317
00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:27.039
what he's doing instead of just going and going raw
318
00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:30.519
because he'll he's got the kid. I can tell you,
319
00:17:30.559 --> 00:17:34.640
this kid's got no off switch. He's got no off switch.
320
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:37.759
So just kind of like Martinez when he was a kid.
321
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:40.799
You could see it. He had no off switch, you know,
322
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:45.920
and he can just push. This kid can push himself
323
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:49.319
to the point of breaking, so, which is good, but
324
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:52.319
it's gonna be you know, my job to kind of
325
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:56.880
be like, hey, hey, whoa look, come back, just we're
326
00:17:56.920 --> 00:17:59.119
gonna be okay, let's we can get up to the line,
327
00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:02.680
but let's not cross over that line so exactly. And
328
00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:04.960
the cool part is is for the most parties listening.
329
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:08.920
So that's good. Really, I'm really really impressed with him.
330
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:11.720
He's gonna be He's gonna be fun in a couple
331
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:13.960
of years.
332
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:15.079
So it's just.
333
00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:18.640
So there's a lot of training, there's a lot of
334
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:20.680
different ways to do things, and you find out what
335
00:18:20.720 --> 00:18:25.319
works you really you really do right now. You know,
336
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:28.079
find things that make you well rounded, that make you stable,
337
00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:31.519
stuff like that. But experiment with your your stance. I
338
00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:34.359
mean I found that deadlift stance and I ended up
339
00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:37.000
pulling way more out of that stance than I did
340
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:39.200
when I was pulling sumo. I really did like AE
341
00:18:39.279 --> 00:18:42.960
hundred and probably one hundred and forty pounds more that
342
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:46.119
I could pull sumo when I was you know, powerlifting
343
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.799
when I was younger, which is great. I mean, eight
344
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.119
forty three's a lot better than seven oh five any day.
345
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:57.200
So it's just, uh, you find things that work and
346
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.000
you continue to do them. So I was very happy
347
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:02.720
when I play with that, but strow End didn't have sumo,
348
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:04.960
so I had to switch styles, and it turns out
349
00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:07.319
that was a better style once I figured it out.
350
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:10.640
So play with foot placement, play with hand placement, play
351
00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:13.119
with play with every bit of it. Some guys bench
352
00:19:13.119 --> 00:19:15.359
really good with y grips. Some guys bench really good
353
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:17.640
with the close grip. Some guys bench really good with
354
00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:19.519
the meeting grip. It's all different. It's built on your
355
00:19:19.559 --> 00:19:23.680
own levers, it's built it's built on what works best
356
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.880
for you. So basically, play with the technique. There's basic.
357
00:19:28.759 --> 00:19:31.240
You want to start with the basics and then alter
358
00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:34.799
from there to best suit yourself. It's the same thing
359
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.279
when you're shooting. I mean, everybody's grip's a little bit different,
360
00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:40.039
but you find the grip that works for you when
361
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:42.400
you're holding a firearm, and you get to shoot a
362
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:44.440
whole lot better. Especially the way you brace, the way
363
00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:50.359
you hold everything, the way you're able to maintain stability
364
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:53.319
and not move the gun when you're pulling the trigger
365
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:56.079
makes a big difference when you're shooting. It applies all
366
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:58.799
the way across the board. Find the best technique that
367
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:03.359
works for you and and run with it, literally run
368
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:07.960
with it. So same thing with the yoke. I would
369
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:09.720
always start with my feet really close together.
370
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:11.680
I don't.
371
00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:15.480
I didn't when I did my first pick off the ground.
372
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:17.880
When I did that, I threw my hips forwards and
373
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:20.680
pop and pop my hips forwards and it was more
374
00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:23.000
of a hip lift than the legs. And then I
375
00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:26.599
just as the as the yoke swung, I just started
376
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:29.400
moving my feet with it. So my my takeoff off
377
00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:31.559
the line was pretty fast. And then I could get
378
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:34.680
up to a really high top speed because no point
379
00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:38.279
in time did the yoke wobble. So it made it
380
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:40.680
to where I could actually run really quick with those
381
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:44.039
And then you're just moving your feet fast, that's it,
382
00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:48.640
and trying to stay style. Yeah, yeah, I had some
383
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:52.559
really fast times. So but you know, it's it's just
384
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:55.240
little things that make a big difference in the techniques
385
00:20:55.279 --> 00:20:58.200
that you find that work for you. Really just start
386
00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:02.799
plain and simple. So yeah, experiment, write things down, yes,
387
00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:07.200
and try try other programs, find programs that work better
388
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:09.240
for you. Try to figure out what part of that
389
00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:10.319
program did work.
390
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:10.720
Better for you.
391
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:13.039
Was it the rep scheme, was it the set scheme?
392
00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:16.759
Was it you know, the training days or the exercises
393
00:21:16.759 --> 00:21:18.799
that were put together, like you did chess, shoulders and
394
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.000
triceps or you just did chest and triceps by itself
395
00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:25.400
and you shoulders by itself, and how you work the split,
396
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:28.559
it all matters. You find out where it works best
397
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:30.240
for you and you take it and you run with it.
398
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:32.319
That's it.
399
00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:35.599
Okay, all right, Well let's pivot and let's talk about
400
00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:38.039
the road because we talked about it last week.
401
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:41.000
And yeah, Nick was pretty much spot.
402
00:21:40.720 --> 00:21:43.160
On on a lot of the things.
403
00:21:43.599 --> 00:21:47.759
Yeah, I mean I knew Mitch was good at deadlift.
404
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:50.960
Well we knew that. I didn't really think anybody gonna
405
00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:52.279
be able to beat Mitch in the deadlift.
406
00:21:53.519 --> 00:22:00.519
Yeah, so Mitch ended up where to go? Come in,
407
00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:03.039
where's the weed to go? Here we go.
408
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:05.720
So Mitch ended up deadlifting like nine hundred and eighty
409
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:09.240
one pounds, which he probably could have pulled more, to
410
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:10.920
be quite honest with you, but that that's what.
411
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:14.240
He needed to do. Yeah, he's gonna pull when he needed.
412
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:17.680
He's got that deadlift contest with Thor coming up, so yeah,
413
00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:20.039
he was gonna pull when he needed. Austin has pulled
414
00:22:20.039 --> 00:22:25.680
over a thousand before, and he did about right about
415
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:28.880
what I thought he would. I thought, Trey and traded
416
00:22:28.920 --> 00:22:30.920
it at fifth at nine to twenty six. I figured
417
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:33.599
you pulled a little more of that. Same with Lucas. Lucas,
418
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:37.440
I figured we'd pull. I figured all three of those
419
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:42.039
guys would pull up into the nine fifty nine seventy
420
00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:47.599
six range. But you know, you never know what happens
421
00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:49.880
or how you come in, how you feel on that day.
422
00:22:50.079 --> 00:22:52.200
You could be off by two percent a day, and
423
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:55.559
that's that's what's gonna happen. Bryce Johnson stepping up with
424
00:22:55.640 --> 00:22:59.039
a nine hundred and fifty one pound deadlift. That guy
425
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:03.480
just keeps getting bigger and better, and he's he keeps
426
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:06.039
improving the way he's improving. You look out he's going
427
00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:07.799
to be and when he gets there, he's going to
428
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.319
be there a while. So yeah, he's good. There's a
429
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:14.559
lot of young, younger guys that are coming up. They're
430
00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:18.200
gonna be really, really something else. It's could be fun
431
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:20.359
to watch for the next five or six years. It
432
00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:24.640
really is. Lucas Hatton came in fourth with nine hundred
433
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:28.759
and thirty six pounds. That's pretty solid all the way around.
434
00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:34.400
But you know, I think Lucas is probably capable of
435
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:36.599
a little bit more than that, but it's still it's
436
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.960
a good lift. Trey Mitchell at nine twenty six. Now,
437
00:23:40.039 --> 00:23:44.079
I've seen Trey Pole one thy thirty six, you know,
438
00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:47.440
here in Vegas, So I don't know what was off
439
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:50.079
on that that day. But it's still not bad. It's
440
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:52.200
fifth overall, so you're right in the middle of the points.
441
00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:55.880
But I think he's capable more than that. Tom Evans
442
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:58.240
had a great deadlift at nine to eleven. For him,
443
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:03.039
that's pretty pretty darn solid. Martin's first contest coming back
444
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:07.880
and nine oh six, he's pulling over nine hundred again
445
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:10.440
and he's just getting back into it. I think his
446
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:12.920
next contest is World's Strongest Man, so that's gonna be
447
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:17.240
pretty pretty fun to watch. Andrew Burton pulled eight fifty
448
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:21.279
six and Nick Gordion pulled eight forty six, which is
449
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:24.880
a pretty solid deadlift for Nick. I mean, that's one
450
00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:28.799
of his areas where you know, he keeps improving, he
451
00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:32.640
keeps improving forty fifty pounds every year or even twenty
452
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:35.119
or thirty pounds a year over the next three, four
453
00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:37.319
or five years, he's he's gonna be right up there
454
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:46.799
with everybody else. The Sear Dumbell. Dumbell's range from two
455
00:24:46.839 --> 00:24:50.920
fifty three to three twenty five. Holy cow, I think
456
00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:54.440
everybody did it. Yeah, it was a tie, so Hooper
457
00:24:54.559 --> 00:24:59.519
and Lucas Hatten. When Lucas is like unbelievable at the
458
00:24:59.599 --> 00:25:04.000
Dumbell and so's so's Hooper. I mean, I don't think
459
00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:07.920
there's anything that Hooper's exceptionally bad at. There's just a
460
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:13.039
couple of things where he's just not you know, he'll
461
00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:14.200
get second and third.
462
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:18.119
Even with that. Hooper he came to the house and
463
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:21.759
remember he did some dumbbell training. Oh yeah, and that
464
00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:24.319
was the first time he's actually ever did it, I think.
465
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:28.440
Yeah, yeah, so it was pretty fun to watch. Yeah,
466
00:25:28.480 --> 00:25:30.440
So they both did three hundred pounds in tie for
467
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:34.119
first place. Austin and Dorade did great at two hundred
468
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:36.720
and eighty pounds. That's pretty pretty that's a lot of weight.
469
00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:40.119
And then Trade did the same thing, you know, which
470
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:43.920
is which is great for Trey. Thomas sevens did two
471
00:25:43.920 --> 00:25:46.759
to seventy four, so did Nick Gordion, which is that's
472
00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:48.960
pretty big for Nick. I mean, that's that's amazing.
473
00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:51.960
I'm three ties, yeah.
474
00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:54.160
For first, tie for third, tie for fifth.
475
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:59.079
So and then Martinez comes in at two hundred and
476
00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:02.599
fifty three pounds for one rep. So that's seventh in
477
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:06.240
the first two events and he ended up third. So
478
00:26:06.440 --> 00:26:10.279
what's that tell you? So Bryce didn't get any of
479
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:12.480
the any of the weights and needed to do Andrew Burton.
480
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:15.359
So that's a place Bryce has got a good overhead.
481
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:18.279
So that's that's something maybe he needs to work on
482
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:21.640
and get a little coaching for all that. Yeah, a
483
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:24.759
little bit of technique change things like that, because he's
484
00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:30.359
strong enough to do the two fifty three. I think, uh,
485
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:43.200
Stone's shoulder. H oh yeah, all right, stone to shoulder.
486
00:26:43.599 --> 00:26:48.160
It's old Hoggin's uh you know stone that's out there.
487
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:51.759
Austin got am I looking at this right?
488
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:52.880
Yeah.
489
00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:57.480
So Austin Androda got three reps plus one I think
490
00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:01.640
up got one extra point and then Martinez got three reps,
491
00:27:02.559 --> 00:27:04.759
which I knew he was going to do really well
492
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:07.839
on that one. That that was a given Austin. Austin
493
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:09.599
was a surprise on how well he did with it.
494
00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:12.119
Austin's really good at it. But I didn't realize he
495
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:14.559
was that good at it. But that's that's that was awesome.
496
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:19.000
That's more power to him. Bryce Johnson two reps and
497
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:23.880
then plus six points, so that's that's doing pretty good.
498
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:28.519
Mitchell Hooper, who's zeroed it last time in front of Arnold,
499
00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:32.240
got two reps this year with five points, and so
500
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:35.839
that put him fourth place in that one, so two
501
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:40.359
firsts and a fourth, so that's doing pretty good. I mean,
502
00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:45.960
it's it's damage control right there, which is great. Trey
503
00:27:46.000 --> 00:27:50.680
Mitchell got two reps. I I think Trey probably just
504
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:53.519
needs to get his hands around that thing more, and
505
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:55.559
I think he'll be fine with it, play with it
506
00:27:55.599 --> 00:27:59.400
a little bit more, because Trey picking up stones is
507
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:04.039
like unreal. Thommas s Evan's got a rep. That's awesome,
508
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:09.519
and then Nick Lucas and Andrew got a no lift,
509
00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:11.279
so that's gonna hurt.
510
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:17.480
Here shows Nick got three three points, so I don't
511
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:18.400
I'm not too sure on that.
512
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:20.400
Maybe this I think they're talking about with the big
513
00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:20.880
heavy one.
514
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:24.799
Oh yeah, yeah, no, no, that is exactly it. Yeah,
515
00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:27.880
that is the big heavy so.
516
00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:34.799
Okay. And then Stone Drag. This thing was.
517
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.279
The leaderboard on uh day one, which is right here.
518
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:47.279
Yeah, it was Hooper exactly exactly.
519
00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:49.720
So that was insane.
520
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:53.160
When I saw that, I was just like, Hey, that's
521
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:55.839
a big up for for Austin right there, because you
522
00:28:55.839 --> 00:28:58.920
know what I'm saying, he's been freaking putting in that
523
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.240
work to get that that first died for that day.
524
00:29:02.079 --> 00:29:03.720
He really is. Yeah.
525
00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:04.720
Drey came in.
526
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:08.880
Third Lucas came in fourth, Martinez was tied with Bryce
527
00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:15.599
for fifth place, Evans at seven, Nick Gordion at eight,
528
00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:19.200
and Andrew Burton at ninth. So that was a hell
529
00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:20.680
of a hell of a first day.
530
00:29:21.559 --> 00:29:23.880
Yeah, oh for sure, that's it.
531
00:29:24.160 --> 00:29:28.279
And then we got Stone to drag. This was an interesting.
532
00:29:27.960 --> 00:29:33.480
Event, yeah, because that thing was like nuts. I'm starting with.
533
00:29:36.440 --> 00:29:41.599
Yeah, diddy Stone's way four fourteen and three eighteen host.
534
00:29:43.240 --> 00:29:45.599
I don't know if that's right, but it's pretty pretty
535
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:49.279
darn close. Traditionally they carried the stones the same time
536
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:52.440
when he ten. However, the athletes were also allowed to
537
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:56.160
move quick to move them individually using a deckwalk technique,
538
00:29:56.519 --> 00:29:58.240
which I think a lot of the guys did because
539
00:29:58.240 --> 00:30:01.359
it was a heck of a lot faster it that way. Yes,
540
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:07.759
Martinez just killed it. He finished the course in one
541
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:11.599
minute and thirty one point two three seconds, and then
542
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:16.200
Bryce Johnson, big Bryce, with all that body mass and stuff,
543
00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:19.119
did it one thirty one point ninety seven. So there's
544
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:22.200
a little over a half a second between them on
545
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:26.759
something that big and that major. That's crazy. And then uh,
546
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:32.559
Nick carried everything in got third place plus two, so
547
00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:36.319
he went twenty six twenty six feet with it. Mitchell
548
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:38.960
Hooper did what he needed to do. He did the
549
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:45.640
cap CAP plus three with twenty four twenty four feet
550
00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:50.519
nine inches. Thomas Sevens did the CAP plus three at
551
00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:55.680
twenty two to eleven inches, Andrew Burton did Cap plus
552
00:30:55.720 --> 00:31:03.240
three twenty two feet seven inches, Lucas did Cat plus
553
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:07.480
four at eighteen feet eleven inches, Austin Andrade did Cat
554
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:12.079
plus five fourteen feet one inch. Now that's gonna hurt.
555
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:16.599
And then Trey did Cat plus five twelve feet eight inches,
556
00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:19.920
which that's that's gonna hurt. Tray a little quite a bit.
557
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:24.079
But you see the points jumble around a little bit
558
00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:29.759
right there. But yet again Mitch's fourth yep, so right
559
00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:33.160
in the middle, real consistent the Austrian oak.
560
00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:34.599
Here we go.
561
00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:39.160
Yeah, big tray four one hundred and ninety five kilos,
562
00:31:39.200 --> 00:31:43.599
four hundred and thirty pounds, cleans and presses it for
563
00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:49.640
five ungodly reps. That is absolutely amazing. Way to go, Tray.
564
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:54.799
I just about fell off the fell off the stool
565
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:56.680
at work I was sitting on when I was watching that.
566
00:31:56.799 --> 00:31:59.000
I was like, oh my god, did he really just
567
00:31:59.079 --> 00:32:00.240
do that?
568
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:00.759
That's it?
569
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:06.359
Yeah, that was quite possibly one of the most amazing
570
00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:09.400
things because I'm not even sure if Sadronus lifted that
571
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:13.160
thing that many times, so that was pretty impressive. And
572
00:32:13.200 --> 00:32:17.240
then he got Lucas Hatton and Thomas Evans both with
573
00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:23.079
four reps. Yeah, so that's both of those guys. Trey
574
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:25.039
and Lucas were at the bottom of the last one
575
00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:26.759
and now they're both at at the top of this one.
576
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:30.039
Thomas Evans getting good points up in third place, and
577
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:33.559
then in fourth place. Here we go again, Mitchell Hooper
578
00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:36.920
three reps with one hundred and thirty pounds and Austin
579
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:41.720
at four hundred and thirty pounds. So the thing that
580
00:32:41.759 --> 00:32:45.839
caught cost to Austin, you know, was the event before that.
581
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:50.920
So right now Mitchell's still looking pretty good because the
582
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:52.960
people that are doing better than some things have already
583
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:57.480
had a bad event. Mitchell just was consistent all the
584
00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:04.519
way through it. Then they got to uh the rapt yep,
585
00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:07.400
the ramp the ramp rage, and.
586
00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:11.680
Where is March. He definitely called the dark horse on
587
00:33:11.680 --> 00:33:13.039
this one. For that ramp rage.
588
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:15.359
Oh, I knew, I knew Nick was going to kill
589
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:18.319
that event. I knew he was going to and he did.
590
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:21.279
He got out of there showed what he could do,
591
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:23.519
and he's quick and he could That guy can move
592
00:33:24.319 --> 00:33:27.440
and you know he's his technique on it is also
593
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:30.599
very very good, so kind of knew that. Andrew Burton
594
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:33.279
came in and did forty four seconds, Nick did thirty eight.
595
00:33:33.759 --> 00:33:39.240
Martinez Lea six came in finished in forty nine seconds.
596
00:33:39.839 --> 00:33:40.519
Now on the.
597
00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:47.839
On the Austrian Oak, he got sixth place with two reps,
598
00:33:48.319 --> 00:33:52.119
so not great, not bad, but still good points. So
599
00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.359
he comes in here he gets third place, good points.
600
00:33:54.799 --> 00:34:00.000
Lucas Hatten forty nine points, Trey Mitchell or fourth place,
601
00:34:00.400 --> 00:34:03.839
Trey Mitchell, fifth place in a minute seventeen Austin and
602
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:09.880
Roddy sixth at one minute in twenty one seconds. Bryce
603
00:34:11.119 --> 00:34:17.239
Bryce did had cap plus one twenty nine feet and
604
00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:20.280
then Thomas Evans, who looked like he heard his bice
605
00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:22.880
up a little bit there. Sorry Tom, he'll look quick.
606
00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:27.880
Bud went twenty six to ten with one with one event,
607
00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:31.639
with one cap left, with one to implement left, and
608
00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:36.679
then Hooper did cap one and didn't bother going at
609
00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:38.639
all with the last one because he didn't need to.
610
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:42.199
He was that far ahead from winning the first two
611
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:51.119
events and then getting fourth, fourth, and when.
612
00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:52.960
When?
613
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:57.800
So he was so far ahead after those. Yeah, he
614
00:34:58.559 --> 00:35:00.760
didn't he didn't need to go all which is smart
615
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:04.000
because he doesn't beat himself up either. Her owners don't
616
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:05.519
like it because they want to see you going all
617
00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:08.599
out on everything. But the thing is, it doesn't make
618
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:11.400
sense to to do that. He's got other things on
619
00:35:11.440 --> 00:35:16.639
the line and things coming down the line. So congratulations, Mitch,
620
00:35:16.760 --> 00:35:21.480
that's your number, that's your fourth one. You're halfway to Todrenis.
621
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:30.519
So yeah, that's that's really good. That might even I'm
622
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:33.280
trying to think because I know b got three, and
623
00:35:33.320 --> 00:35:37.000
I think Thor got three. Trying to think of who
624
00:35:37.039 --> 00:35:41.320
else got three, Poundstone got two, So Drena's got eight,
625
00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:48.519
there's I know, I think Lawless got one. Trying to
626
00:35:48.519 --> 00:35:52.119
think of who else that might be the most besides
627
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:56.000
Sodrena's so kind of kind of interesting on that one.
628
00:35:56.320 --> 00:35:58.519
I'd have to double check it on the internet, but
629
00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:00.960
I can't do that right at this moment. So that's
630
00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:05.039
pretty cool. And then the women. Olga won the women's
631
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:09.920
which was absolutely amazing. Being consistent, Lucy Underdown pulled an
632
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:15.480
amazing seven oh one. That's just that that woman can
633
00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:19.599
deadlift on any bar. The hard part about the elephant
634
00:36:19.639 --> 00:36:22.880
bar is it's gonna wiggle a lot, and so your
635
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:25.519
core stability, you have to have a really strong core.
636
00:36:25.960 --> 00:36:30.280
You can you can pull more, but it's really hard
637
00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:33.000
to stabilize it at the top if you pull too hard,
638
00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:36.039
too fast, and as you're pulling, if it's not smooth,
639
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:38.119
it's going to jerk all over the place and make
640
00:36:38.159 --> 00:36:41.360
it make it hard to do anyway. And then Jennifer
641
00:36:41.480 --> 00:36:44.400
Lyall pulled six't eighty one and Oliga did six twenty one,
642
00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:53.800
which is absolutely insane. That's just you know, absolutely killing it.
643
00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:59.320
The overhead gauntlet. Okay, I know, you know pretty much
644
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:03.320
expected uh one hundred and ninety five pounds for one rep.
645
00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:06.719
Alga did the one hundred and ninety for one rep.
646
00:37:06.840 --> 00:37:11.960
So now real consistent in there. Because Olga was third.
647
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:16.800
Now here's Olga the second. Inez was seventh with five
648
00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:19.559
to eighty one in the deadlift, so you know, here
649
00:37:19.639 --> 00:37:21.440
she is consistent, which is going to put her up
650
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:23.440
near the top. Right off the gate, I think she
651
00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:28.679
was in first place after that. Angelica Jardine did one
652
00:37:28.719 --> 00:37:32.079
hundred and eighty pounds musta peacock one seventy, Katie one
653
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:37.239
seventy also, so it was pretty it's pretty heavy dumbbell
654
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:42.519
oh yeah, oh yeah, stewing the shoulder Agelicot Jardine did
655
00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:47.000
seven reps. That was absolutely out of control, that thing. Yeah,
656
00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:49.159
that was pretty crazy. And then Inez comes back with
657
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:55.280
six and Olga had six. Now Inez had five. You know,
658
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:57.800
the bonus points on the side was at five, so
659
00:37:58.440 --> 00:38:02.000
Inez got second, Olga got third, and then Hannah got
660
00:38:02.000 --> 00:38:06.800
two reps. So there was a big difference between first, second,
661
00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:10.519
the first second, third. We're very far ahead of fourth
662
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:15.320
and everybody else down. Lucy got no lift, so I mean,
663
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:18.519
and her back's really strong. It's it's probably just a
664
00:38:18.559 --> 00:38:22.280
technique thing, but it's a pretty big separation when you
665
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:24.159
get seven, six, six and two.
666
00:38:26.239 --> 00:38:26.599
Yeah.
667
00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:30.719
So those girls are just on this event, are just
668
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:37.800
really good. The stone drag event, first lady had to
669
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:41.079
carry two large stones combined with the weight four hundred
670
00:38:41.079 --> 00:38:44.679
and twenty five pounds, loaded them onto a sled and
671
00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:48.039
the next task was to pull it back. Now, Angelica
672
00:38:48.199 --> 00:38:54.599
again had a great event here forty nine seconds, Lucy
673
00:38:54.679 --> 00:38:59.800
underdown one eight, Olga again in the top three, one ten,
674
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:04.599
zero point seventy five, and then Hannah Az went down
675
00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:06.639
a little bit. She was at one point four to four,
676
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:09.360
so she she kind of fell down a little bit.
677
00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:15.280
It's it's being the most consistent throughout everything is what's
678
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:19.559
going to put you at the top. The American Oak
679
00:39:19.920 --> 00:39:24.920
uh sixty nine AA has got six reps with two
680
00:39:25.039 --> 00:39:33.320
sixty nine. Am unbelievable. That's absolutely amazing. Angelica got five reps.
681
00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:38.920
Olga got five reps. So again top three, again in
682
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:41.119
the top three, right right where she needed to be.
683
00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:46.079
Katie Blundering got three reps with two sixty nine, and
684
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:50.239
then Jennifer Lyle got two reps and then everybody else used.
685
00:39:50.079 --> 00:39:51.519
The lighter, lighter logs.
686
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:55.360
So, I mean, it's the consistency of being up there
687
00:39:55.480 --> 00:39:58.360
as is up there. But she had a couple where
688
00:39:58.400 --> 00:40:03.559
she dropped down a little bit, which you know, brought
689
00:40:03.599 --> 00:40:08.039
her back a little bit. The where to go the seventh,
690
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:18.360
the seventh in the deadlift and wow, I'm doing good here,
691
00:40:18.679 --> 00:40:22.480
and the fifth in the stone drag it hurts a
692
00:40:22.519 --> 00:40:27.880
little bit. So the consistency threw out these things. In
693
00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:32.400
the rampage, AA has absolutely killed it in thirty five seconds.
694
00:40:32.559 --> 00:40:36.360
Who's right behind her Olga getting second place in thirty
695
00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:39.199
eight point nine two seconds, which gave her the win.
696
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:42.559
That's what gave her the win. It's just the consistency
697
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:45.480
all the way through. I don't think.
698
00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:52.519
That she really didn't have any bad Yes.
699
00:40:52.719 --> 00:40:54.800
Olga didn't have any bad events, and she didn't win
700
00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:57.920
an event. She got second and third. She either got
701
00:40:57.960 --> 00:41:03.599
second or third in these events, which is why she won.
702
00:41:03.719 --> 00:41:06.719
She got second in that one. Hannah Lindsay got third
703
00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:09.880
in the up the Ramp of Missip Melissa Peacock got
704
00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:13.559
fourth in it in forty three seconds, which is saying
705
00:41:13.559 --> 00:41:14.280
something right there.
706
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:18.719
That's running up that ramp. That ramp gets that.
707
00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:21.199
Ramp gets real really fast when you're going uphill real
708
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:26.840
with these things. So congratulations to everybody. An amazing events
709
00:41:26.840 --> 00:41:30.000
to watch for both the men and the women. It's
710
00:41:30.079 --> 00:41:33.840
just super entertaining and it's super fun. So congratulations to
711
00:41:34.480 --> 00:41:37.360
all of you. Job well done. It's it's fun to
712
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:40.280
watch and it's fun to look at it, see where
713
00:41:40.320 --> 00:41:42.880
they were successful, see where people miss on technique things
714
00:41:42.880 --> 00:41:45.000
and little things make a big difference at that level.
715
00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:48.719
You know, it's kind of funny how it is. But
716
00:41:49.239 --> 00:41:51.840
every little bit when the competition is all that close
717
00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:57.800
together makes a big difference. So but moving on, what
718
00:41:57.880 --> 00:41:58.639
else is going on?
719
00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:02.360
Well, you know, not too much else is going on.
720
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:04.320
We'reeing out of this now.
721
00:42:05.280 --> 00:42:07.760
Yeah, well you know, now it's time to take ourselves
722
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:09.559
out of it because guess what we covered it. We
723
00:42:09.599 --> 00:42:13.480
talked about our predictions from last week and covered because
724
00:42:13.559 --> 00:42:16.840
you know, you're basically spot on in the positionings and
725
00:42:17.159 --> 00:42:19.440
even in each individual event for these men.
726
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:21.280
Well, I was talking about the guys in the events
727
00:42:21.280 --> 00:42:23.920
I figured about. I was a little Austin did better
728
00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:27.400
in a couple of events, and the Great God bless him.
729
00:42:27.559 --> 00:42:30.039
I could be more happy for him, more proud of
730
00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:32.159
him too, So that was kind of cool.
731
00:42:32.440 --> 00:42:34.400
The stone lift. I knew he would do pretty good,
732
00:42:34.400 --> 00:42:36.079
but I didn't realize he was with you that good.
733
00:42:36.480 --> 00:42:39.400
So that's awesome. Congratulations, very well deserved.
734
00:42:40.199 --> 00:42:44.199
