Rip squat

[Chrisman50]

@TheTonganMammoth You're saying that anyone who "knows stuff about muscles" know to only train 3 days a week, however Rippetoe says you can train much more than thatin his book Practical Programming. Unless you're a novice, then I guess you should stick to those 3 days ;)

[Chrisman50]

@TheTonganMammoth Says the guy watching Rippetoe videos but not following his advice.

[Chrisman50]

@TheTonganMammoth I came here to listen to grunts and the sound of plates on a bar, not someone talking.

[nikolatesla08]

Why is her kitchen filming 

[rogue8853]

lol its a low bar squat not a high bar squat. you dont go ATG in a low bar.

[Broodstar1337]

Lower faggot

[nikolatesla08]

@Broodstar1337 dummy

[mojcen1]

I wish we'd got a shot of his face after!

[captainjosue]

Guys in the back stop and watch Rip squat.

[awreckingball]

Wish that fucking woman shouting in the background would shut her trap.

[strawbro]

Lower faggot!

[mikeyramone33]

rip walken the walk!

[Hyou2]

He advocates a neutral head position, nothing wrong with that.

[harmony72]

Rip should do some crossfit, he has the physique of a plumber

[gafroninja]

@harmony72 or change his diet.

[KruNae]

@harmony72 Or a weight lifting coach. He's a polar bear, let the man eat.

[chublancsti]

looking down while squatting is not only counterproductive its dangerous....

[jeremyjjeremiah]

@chublancsti please go.

[deanschlippen]

@chublancsti How is it dangerous? Looking down allows you to use hip drive better.

[soseg]

i support what rip teaches but i am not a fan of the looking down shit he advocates. head up.

[TheKingClem]

Is that a squat bar or a regular bar?

[jtoddjb]

mute this one

[ryanedwardhache]

What ever anybody says about form that is a long time to stand under that weight, he was in no hurry. This guy knows hos shit!

[89satty]

Gud video, and to all the haters that is a propa squat I.e ass below knees. BTW is that 150kg?

[vjohn82]

@89satty Yeah I think it's 150kg. 3 x 20kg + 1 5kg each side then the 20kg bar... heavy stuff

[jackriley8]

@vjohn82 Its like 152kgs...cause its lbs instead of kilos

[m5p944]

@89satty Those are sumo parallel good mornings. He basicly gave up on 50% of full squat movement. Why? Fear of hole? That in fact he has to drop huge amount of weight to be able to get out of the hole. Would you like to see a real squat? Than go watch any olympic weightlifter. Ass to grass. This is some kind of hybrid for non flexible lazy lifters who are affraid of hole.

[TheFitnessTutor]

@m5p944 I disagree, olympic squatters(specialist field) go atg because they HAVE to, due to extreme weight forcing one down there during c and j. Parallel is the strongest and most stable point of the knee arc of movement. Going beyond that or atg, especially with heavy weight and the added momentum that is usually associated with that is only adding more stress to the knee joint due to the knee structures friction actually helping to stop the weight thus adding more risk with limited reward.

[Obsidian1392]

@TheFitnessTutor no shut up

[DjiEnn]

@TheFitnessTutor

haha, are you fucking serious. Do you even know how a knee works? As someone else already stated, not even worth discussing, you are lost.

I'll try anyway, I am a nice guy. Rip hasn't flexibel hamstrings, but he goes below parallel. If you stop at paralell while your hamstring flexibility can go further than you put a LOT of tension on your tendons/knees, NOT on your muscles.

Most people can't even go to ATG, only those trained in flexibility, like olympic lifters.

[TheFitnessTutor]

@DjiEnn What I'm talking about is when one goes ATG and bounces in that position like an olympic lifter. I've never seen anyone stop a c and j and parallel. My point is that going atg with momentum is risky. So calm your ass down. I don't do the internet tango shit.

[hopsluvr]

@m5p944 What you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this thread is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

[Mihker]

As rip says... Mediocre athletes who tried hard as hell to get good are the best coaches.

[GougerOfTheGroin]

That's MARK RIPPETOE doing squats folks. I get shivers down my spine watching this video

[riopieboy]

@GougerOfTheGroin

[GougerOfTheGroin]

@riopieboy #fuckingcomeatzyzzlad

[Stevenhmonteiro]

rip is not doing half squats. his legs are bulky making it look like a half squat.  thats why gaining weight is great for squatting. it makes ROM less.

[McLovindk]

Omg, I was always wondering how he could be a coach with such a bad technique and form.

[vjohn82]

@McLovindk 9 times out of 10 the best coaches are the ones who cannot perform their movements properly. There is a difference between inflective and reflective pedagogy. Now let's see your squat video.

[anuragsharma08]

@vjohn82 best possible reply you gave man. completely agree with you.

[ZombieSlayerMovies]

is that cocaine on his back?

[existentialvegan]

Protip: if you're the one with the camera, don't shout in a shrill voice while shooting.

[Rattattattatt]

@existentialvegan if she was shouting words of encouragement to me, I'd punch her in the trachea. Shit's so distracting.

[muchacabesa]

@Rattattattatt "she" is the person who posted this video (that is the encouraging voice). "She" would destroy your weak vegan-azz if you attempted to strike at her carnivorous person.

[ryanbchs09]

wheres the random dog?

[cc6745]

jtgtjtgt... dont embarres ur self. read coach rip book

[ZUPICK]

you guys can say whatever you want but any one fowling his routine is strong as hell

[sullydawg]

It's because he knows about weightlifting that he looks where he does--his entire spine is aligned correctly. He has made his case: Read his writings on this point, which proceed from anatomical and biophysical rationale, then make your argument from similar rationale if your disagree.

[casperthegst]

I don' understand how he can know so much about weightlifting but looks down on squats is he doing it to make it harder because you are suppose to look slightly up when squatting not doing so is how you get stuck?

[jtgtjtgt]

@casperthegst his spine is fucked up

[cubencis]

is that 315 lbs?

[mcnailler93G]

To the douchebags below who are arguing about this.

STFU.

[tempac91]

Why is that old guy doing squats there? The rack is for curls.

[astonrd]

@goldtogreysmoke Is that American for having a shit or having a wank?

[astonrd]

@goldtogreysmoke Do you "take" yours between meals or with food? Perhaps you take them for a walk? Or does your faggot mate take them in his mouth.

Perghaps you squat like Ripeturd and never get near enough to the "John" to take

one at all. Do tell. Unfortunately I dont understand what a "Jack off" coment is yet.

Is it when you "choke a bitch" the same time as you type? Can't wait to hear from you, kind regards from another "UK fairy".

[tempac91]

@astonrd Why are you dissing Rip, you limey faggot?

[astonrd]

@tempac91 It s just a faggot thing. He's obviously a god. Anyone doing 10 half squats at 140 kg is worth worshiping. Sorry if I offended.

[tempac91]

@astonrd He did below-parallel squats, you toothless chav.

[astonrd]

@tempac91 God bless you. Heh he he! All hail Ripeturd the squatting god.

[tempac91]

@astonrd You rotten-toothed, pasty-white, motherfucker.... By insulting Coach Rip, you have doomed youself!

[astonrd]

@tempac91 Ha ha is he your dad or something? PS I'm well tanned, great teeth

and don't see mum often. Whats a "youself"?

[tempac91]

@astonrd "Youself" is a mistyped "yourself"'. Duh!

[astonrd]

@tempac91 I guess Duh is a mistyped Doh?

[tempac91]

@astonrd You keep mocking Rip and I, your end is coming fast.

[astonrd]

@tempac91 Yeh cos Rip has a hit squad and when one of his deluded fans is upset he sends them round the world to get people. PMSL.

[tempac91]

@astonrd You fucker, I'll find you and beat your ass to a bloody pulp. I am talking excruciating, mind-numbing PAIN, boy.

[astonrd]

@tempac 91 I guess thats a a threat then? Shame on you.

[tempac91]

@astonrd "thats a a threat then?" Fear has made you start to statter, boy? hahahaha

[astonrd]

@tempac91 Yeh brickin it mate. Keyboard warriors are so scary. Its stutter by the way. 

[tempac91]

@astonrd You do realise I was being sarcastic, don't you? I couldn't care less that you don't like the guy.

[thestoebz]

@astonrd Rofl. You're a flaming wad of cat feces. (As tempac91 put it: "you toothless chav")

[infinetpartners]

@tdheoembaesl - perhaps, I just think for maximum definition and striation he should focus on some more isolated movements.

[infinetpartners]

He should be using collars on the bar. I also think he would be better served by doing hack squats and leg extensions because it would develop his quads more. He might also want to skip the leg work altogether and just spend time flexing his quads in the mirror. That'll really get him tan and cut.

[slowfuse]

@infinetpartners agreed

[tdheoembaesl]

@infinetpartners Are you really suggesting exercises to Mark Rippetoe, the best mind in powerlifting?

[citydawg926]

the only thing i see wrong with this is hes rounding his back at the bottom of his reps and his elbows look like they're flared out a little

[fatcat669]

im waiting for the thousands of comments from fitness trainers and experts saying he is doing it wrong lol

[Telecaster132]

@fatcat669 Your so right! Some guy who's a personal trainer douche at my gym came up to me when i was squatting and said I was squatting too deep lol!

[lolkvadim]

respect to the master :)

[BigJavs]

the master at work!
