180kg Clean and Jerk

[FactoryClosure]

You should post a day-to-day work out program that yours do on the site, or not. Just a suggestion.

[eroticpancakesofdeat]

@jaycuda12, you might have too much weight on your toes. I usually try to see if i can keep my toes a little off the ground when i get into startin postion. Just a suggestion.

[BelievinSP]

WTF?!????

[0219brixton]

Nice Jared

[jaycuda12]

Hey Broz, could you take a guess as to why I jump so far forward when I clean(Probably at least 6-8+ inches) and how to fix it?

[BROZKNOWS]

@jaycuda12 bar too far away from chest

[jaycuda12]

@BROZKNOWS Any advice to help keep it closer?

[BROZKNOWS]

@jaycuda12  Not without seeing what you are doing. Can be from a multitude of reasons.

[RedTailedTuna]

I wish you guys would lift in pound then I can see how much it really is with out doing math

[kirrasc]

@RedTailedTuna do you not know how to multiply? I don't know if you're going to go very far in math lol

[EndlersaurusRex]

@RedTailedTuna He put the weight in the description, you idiot.

[spivey6690]

What kind of belt is that? Anyone? Please.

[BROZKNOWS]

@spivey6690 a shitty velcro one.

[Hedphelym]

hahaha 30 minutes after i made that comment complaining about feeling like shit, i got a 5kg PR. that shut me up.

[BROZKNOWS]

@Hedphelym that's usually how it goes. HOW YOU FEEL IS A LIE

[Hedphelym]

broz im 12 days into doing your routine. i feel like absolute shit. all weights are down and my knees are sore. do i continue with the same volume or should i increase it? i guess this is the "dark times" as you call it.

[BROZKNOWS]

@Hedphelym It's hard to say because I don't have enough info about what you were doing prior, or your attempts now.

[BarbellOnly]

i feel like your website  can be compared to Dr Dre's detox album which has been in progress for 10+ years and no release. Oh well Im just a fan Broz, hope its soon to be released. Thanks for the vids.

[BROZKNOWS]

@BarbellOnly lol. hopefully that's not the case.

[datKOVU]

I saw on your websites Q&A that you recommend kneeling on a hard surface for 10-15 minutes every day to help with knee pain. I have always been told otherwise, actually asked my doctor couple days ago and he told me that, kneeling on a hardsurface was bad and often caused inflammation in the knee.

Also, BEAST C&J, the jerk looked so light!

[BROZKNOWS]

@datKOVU doctors cost $, floors are free. It's worth a try. 

[maxiflo]

@BROZKNOWS not if u fuck up your knees doing it

[BROZKNOWS]

@maxiflo if you do from kneeling on a floor then lifting weights might not be for you.

[JNFreije]

@maxiflo lol your commenting on a video of someone throwing 400# over their head and your complaining about kneeling on a hard floor...

[camaro4ever222]

That's not sweat on his shirt, it's hydrolic fluid.

[jaycuda12]

What do you do to cut weight but preserve strength?

[kashem58]

i can just squat 180kg and this guy throws it on to hes shoulders, am off to gym...

[mycenean]

Bit of competition between Rob and Jared

[spivey6690]

What kind of belt is that?

[chadcite]

BOSS !

[Fiarzen]

Do you test any of your guys' vertical jump? i bet they are massive :D

[BROZKNOWS]

@Fiarzen we did once, just joking around. everyone was over 30"

[browe31]

Nice how much you weigh

[gwhetstone12]

wow, that's power.

[kpoff5128]

fuck yeah, you made that look light. Keep getting stronger brother and pretty soon you'll be giving farris a run for his money.

[Fiisherdan]

Slightly off topic; Did Rob Adell have a bodybuilding background before he came to you?

[BROZKNOWS]

@Fiisherdan no

[TheHahaha247]

Nice lift Jared! Looking strong.



[WesleyGibsonWanted]

wow that jerk looked like cake



[JSD808]

Yes, JE seems to have taken a nice step forward. Great progress!

[clarence0]

I can't get over how easy that jerk was.

[pjtrainer]

Looking strong brotha!!!



[chiefwr88]

is he still going to be lifting at 85kg? hes still pretty heavy at 93 thats quite the cut..

[BROZKNOWS]

@chiefwr88 yes



[karite36]

He had 185

[360Imports]

Jared's coming along great!

[NorwegianZin]

Nice

[MORETHANOVERGROWN]

Great Lift! Broz, I'm trying to buy some weightlifting shoes, which shoe would you say is the best. It's between Do-Wins, Power Perfect II, Ironwork II and Ironwork III?

Thanks!

[BROZKNOWS]

@MORETHANOVERGROWN IW3 or 2's if the price is better. both great shoes

[snake0076969true]

@BROZKNOWS Hey Broz. I'm looking for shoes for weightlifting too. I primarily train Front Squat and Clean. Can't find IW3 or IW2 anywhere!! What are the good alternatives??

[MORETHANOVERGROWN]

@snake0076969true I dont't think they make IWs anymore. I had to settle for the Power Perfect IIs. Got it off Amazon. My advice is get 1/2 a shoe size higher than your normal one for the power perfect II.

[kirksman]

Man, you made a huge load of progress in such a short time mate!

[daluke61]

I just started training at CS; wish Jared was still here...inspiring!

Any of your guys competing this weekend at the Open in 'bama?

[BROZKNOWS]

@daluke61 Ian and Billy are there

[ericomfg]

My favorite lifter. Such an inspiration to me...

[shiznick2]

solid!! jareds legs r looking much stronger than when he was at cali... is he also following the Bulgarian training program?

[BROZKNOWS]

@shiznick2 well, our version of it.

[BROZKNOWS]

@shiznick2 he is doing the Broz-garian program. lol.

[anathamon]

Impressive. Do I see gold in your future? I think so.

[CMBlifts1994]

definitely had a couple more kilos in him

[tli1001]

very strong!

im looking to up my squat/clean but my legs are very weak. what do you think is the most effective effective method to increase leg strength? I'm currently doing 5 sets of 3 "heavy"

[rell816]

@tli1001 Broz'll tell ya squat daily usually to a heavy single then drop to 70 - 80% of that single and do back off sets. Doubles and triples, check google there's a forum thread somewhere where he answered most of these questions.

[TheRisingCG]

what benefits does the belt actually give?

[ccjohnso0]

Nice lift Jared

[biglogstrongman]

Man have you gotten strong this year 

[altrocksnp]

Making some great progress!

[snatch147at85]

Coach, is it just me or does he have a higher hip start now? It seems he has more pulling power that way.

[bighungry34]

good job jared...you were good for more too!...gough and karchut will be pleased!!!

[michaelzwarszawy]

monster! looked easy too, coulda went over 400 for sure

[kingcharelsyoung29]

Wow nice lifting there man.

[yorkbell]

are you replacing their bones with reinforced steel??? SOmething fishy is going on in brozknows lol

[natarem]

awesome, 160/195 at nationals?

[SMCStudio]

beast.



[DamienStrength]

So you allow him to use a belt?

[BROZKNOWS]

@DamienStrength that was a habit he had before coming.

[clarence0]

@DamienStrength Haha you gaylord!

[ArtjomGlad]

I can weight 77 kg and can only squat 130 kg. Should I be wating with the lifts until I'm stronger? What method is the best way to raise your squat fast as possible.

[hazr2]

@ArtjomGlad Squat more

[skoomskaa]

Every video I see of your guys is just impressive. So strong and great technique as well. They never seem to be grinding. Great work!

[Tanky830]

The jerk was so easy! Jared will be unstoppable at 85

[tinymouse2]

It wasn't even dirty, looked like he could have gone slightly higher. Damn impressive.

[JNorthKilla94]

hes made more progress in 5 months then he has in 1 year @ Cal Strength.

[madaozeki]

@JNorthKilla94 What PR's has he hit since the move? In competition?

[steveramer123]

@JNorthKilla94 he was only at cal strength for 4 months

[snatch147at85]

@JNorthKilla94 Damn son....you sure you don't want to change your name to californiastrengthkilla? You might want to come down to BROZ gym.....who knows maybe your 165 snatch will turn into 180.....HELLO OLYMPICS!

[biglogstrongman]

@JNorthKilla94 No shit my observation exactly

[fyckthissht]

BEAST STRENGTH

[StormJB1]

excuse the noob ignorance. Is clean and jerk the same as clean and press?

[Alderslodge]

Strong jerk.

[luiscarre]

hell yeah

[jonnosferatu]

Good shit.
