Ed Nunn In the Trenches Part2

[Swannage4]

He isn't a powerlifter, he's a bodybuilder! Who cares if his squats aren't ATG?

If he feels the movement is enough to work his legs, then what he is doing is fine.

Have you seen Ed compete? Giant, dry, sweeping quads, TINY waist!

Stop the hating until you can achieve a physique as impressive as his!

[tradguitarplaya]

Why are all IFBB Pros such pussies when they train? lame ROM, this guy's using the Smith Machine for crying out loud!!!!!! Juicers=Pussies!

[aaronlg73]

@tradguitarplaya He clearly states that squats are not for him because of how tall he is. Not everybody is built for squats. It's about longevity in the sport of bodybuilding. If you do things that hurt your body more than they help, your career will be cut short.

[JaKeth3snake]

You can tell his legs were never meant to be that big lol. Look at his knees as he squats

[flynationworld]

the truth!

[fogonabomba2]

his calves is bad, isn't ?

[swaapo]

i love the noise of the smith ... smooth and controlled. pumpn up and down

[everybodyworks]

Show 'em how it's done.

[rsecret40]

he wouldn't be so tired if he paid child support!

[finaplexEOD]

[Ignobis]

bota um óleo na bagaça ae, porra!

[bronco200005]

Top Bodybuilder in a fitness gym just don't mix well in my eyes

[reviewsvoiceontube]

shallow squats

[Terragcosurf]

[finaplexEOD]

@Terragcosurf damn thing got some miles on it thats for sure

[tdubbs311]

where is part 3 and above

[RyScott85]

That noise would annoy the hell out of me!!

[mannyvelo]

That is one lame ass gym. The best part about it is no one's there

[trombonedemon]

@mannyvelo Sheesh I wish my gym had no one in there.

[neaguvladut]

he's my favourite bodybuilder!!! he isn't huge, he is perfect!!!!! I hope, someday, I will be at least half like him...

[lift2live1]

squat and tall guy::::

-high bar, ok but oly style and light weight.

-low bar, powerlifting style, heavy weight ok.

squat is the hell for tall guy, only few exception all over the world

[imarubberninja]

wtf who squats on a smith machine

[realestatefla1]

Nothing wrong with using the smith machine for squating. You great a better range of motion in my humble opinion...

[oshkosh79]

Your opinion is not even humble...it's outright stupid.

[Fickes]

Well when you live in a small town in Indiana you gotta work with what you have. If a smith machine is all he has for squats, it's better than nothing.

[oshkosh79]

My comment was for him saying that Smith machine is better for squat than free weight. He has no clue about squatting I guess. Well, if you haven't got a power rack then there is nothing one can do.

[MUSCLEEDDIE212]

@imarubberninja yo stupid dont know what your talking about. GET SOME EDUCATION

[awazha]

I dont like that leg press machine, but it's hell of a lot better than the one in my gym.

[awazha]

He's right, most tall guys find it very hard to squat.

Dave Drapper use to do lot of squats, but I think he said that he wore out his knees cause the bio mechanics of a tall person make the squat harder for them.

[k0kan3]

amen- only problem is when i hack squat to replace them, I get shoulder bruises really easy.

[wisdometernal]

I agree whole heartedly. Im 6'5 and squats SUCK for me. Ive been trying different things because I love the exercise but its murder on my knees. Good form and long legs just aren't compatible on squats without ALOT of work...and pain

[tjmuller]

I'm 6'2 and used to think the same thing. But if I squat like a powerlifter it's actually no problem. A wide stance and twisting the knees out while sitting far back takes a bunch of tension of my knees and puts it all in the glutes and hams where I need it. Front more emphasis on quads I do front squats. Narrow stance however is still a pain in the ass.

[awazha]

Your probably the exception than the norm though.

Yea I agree front squats are the way to go for quads.

[wisdometernal]

Yea you're right about using a powerlifter's stance. Ive experimented with that as well. The only problem I ran into was not being able to hold as much weight in a front squat as I can traditionally. So my glutes and hams took off growth wise because of the powerlifting stance but the weight I was holding for front squats was causing my quads to lag behind. I still use them both frequently however because they are very effective and I like to mix it up.

[itvideoluver]

I like him, think he's cool!

[gofyerself]

he needs more meat near his knees and he has skinny ass calves

[awazha]

he;s over 6ft

[bigtonutz]

very kewl!! gotta do it
