Dude you are AMAZING. I am currently trying to workout and get strong like you, but its a very difficult process. After years of bad diet and low activity I gained alot of weight. Well I am turning it around, already down 40 lbs and got another 60 to go. Then I cant wait to start getting ripped like you =) This video is so motivating, definitely 5/5 and will be watching it for tips and more motivation! Keep rocking man!
Wow, that's an awesome workout! But I have a question. . . where does someone without super human strength start to get to that level??? I would love to attain that level of fitness, but where would I start!?!? I cant just jump in doing clap pull-ups, lol! I'll bust my face wide open! lmao
@Face4Media start with regular pushups, and gradually try other push ups such as: clap push ups, diamond pushups, lateral push ups, aligator pushups. and if u cant do pull ups use a chair to give u a little help till u can do them without help
I don't consider my strength "super human." It just takes consistent hard work and dedication. I started off just like everyone else. At a young age I just did pushups, situps and body weight rows. That's it. From them on I progressed to weight training and other methods. The years of earlier training helped build a solid foundation for my "endurance based" training.
If strength is really what you want. Lift heavy. Focusing on 3-5 sets of 3-5 reps of any type of exercise. Lifting about 80% or higher of your max. High repetition will not get you stronger but build more endurance. I've learned this through experience and also science/research confirms this. Even though I was able to crank out 225 pushups in a row when I was 15. My max bench was about 90lbs. There is definitive correlation between endurance training and heavy lifting.
i just watched your other vids. very good display of old school functional strength. you're sure as hell not a bodybuilder. i'm just curious though...how many pounds is your grip strength? it's gotta around 250, no doubt.
It's motivating watching this video, especially with the progress you have made from your old video (I don't think it's on here anymore). Anyway keep it up, good shit mate.
Oh. Wouldn't working out since you were a lad mess with your vertical growth? Because if throughout your entire life your body is recovering from workouts and not using the food you eat to increase your height it just uses it to repair your muscles. That was worded weird as fuck. Hope you get the gist of what im trying to say. Its been bothering me for awhile. I've been weight lifting since I was 14ish and I'm 17 now. Only about 5'7.5 5'8. Considering to stop working out so I can grow.
There have been no proof of it at all. There are people in other countries who don't eat for days or even weeks and just survive off water and they grow. Using malnutrition as an argument for growing doesn't make sense.
Your CNS is programed to transfer information effectively and using the logic of using your source of food to recover from workouts and not use it for growing doesn't make sense.
You can state that Junk Food and Fast food stunts your growth based on your logic. There are barely any nutrition in those foods. Yet people in America eat that junk and wonder why they are obese.
Fast Food & Junk food there is research that agree they are horrible for your body.
Exercise has been correlated with numerous of benefits and research has confirmed that.
Growing has to do with genetics and not exercise. As I stated before exercise strengthens your bones, tendons and muscles.
If your body can not adapt to exercise your body will automatically shut off on you. This is called over training.
When your body can not catch up to what you output in exercise. You will feel it. You will know when you are over training. You get weaker, feel more tired and your motivation will decrease.
Yes I believe the dips did help me with my strength gains. It helped me achieve stronger pressing movements. I have done weighted dips for reps up to 135lbs. But I haven't done them in awhile. I always switch up my exercises for variety to shock my muscles. =]
Can you do a single or a double? If not start on that first.
If you can't do either. Focus on speed when you do pushups. Push as hard as you can. After awhile you will be able to do a single.
After you master the explosion part (pushing yourself up in the air as hard as possible) try practicing the motion standing up. That helped me achieve the double and triple.
i'm able to do front clap push ups but i couldn't do the back clap one yet! i think after i master the back clap then the triple clap will be possible, i tried to push myself up hard to do the back clap but not successful yet. So do u think the best way for me is just keep trying until i master the back clap?
You need to practice on speed. Trying pushing yourself up fast with just regular pushups. Also try spreading your legs out. That helps a lot. You can put your legs closer after you get better to increase the difficulty.
Dam man, this is the sick, i see guys telling people pull ups and crap work but for some reason your vid seems more appealing. i feel like getting a chin up bar so badly now
My bro.. Kudos to you. May you achieve all your dreams.. continue training hard as well as setting an example for the youth today.. they need it. Peace... and Positive vibes
If I could just ask you a personal question, have you ever poked someone's eyes out with your pecks?
I mean holy cow, you could probably grate cheese with your sixpack and I wouldn't be surprised if someone mistook one of your calves for a baby cow. Really good job bro.
i have seen many men who can lift alot of weight..but the strength you possess and your determination make the gym look pretty boring..i love your vision and adaptability, good work champ.
Hi Jason. My arm is nearly healed ( see previous post ) I did a chin up today =) My sprinting, up hill jogging and tummy workouts are really coming along. I hope to post a response video for you in a few months. I'm also joining a gymnastics group, so I hope to have a few flips and hand stands to show off as well ! Happy training all.
Wow, incredible body strength! Pretty impressive stuff. It's always cool to see people that can show off their strength in other ways that don't involve barbells. Keep it up, man!
You are a god. Thank you for your inspiration. I've torn a muscle in my forearm. so most upper body work is kaput. But cardio, tummy and flexibilty workouts going strong. I watch this video several times a week to remind me where i want to get to. Also the RYOUKO videos are an inspiration for like minded people. Thnx again Jason ! !
I mix up various exercises and change up my routine every 6 weeks to incorporate variety. I don't do dips or deadlifts in every single program. But I rotate over new routines.
I did weighted dips this month, and I didn't lose any strength on it. The last time I did weighted dips was about 6 months ago, but I actually gained more strength on the dips since then. Even though I never worked on it specifically.
Variety is the key don't let your body adapt. Change routines about 4-6 weeks. Not too short that you won't reap the benefits and not to long to halt the benefits. =]
I don't do a lot of kettlebell stuff. Kettlebells are extremely expensive for my budget, but I have a 40lbs bell that I use to toss around to strengthen my grip.
If they were cheaper I would buy up to 100+ lbs or so but they aren't hehe.
I have nothing against them and would like to own more as I get older and get an actual career for variety purposes not because it's superior or anything. In the end kettlebell, barbell, sandbag dumbbell or bodyweight. It's all just weight.
good work zabinjay. a question about the ab wheels, i've seen ross' article on how to make them but i was wondering how and what you made yours out of?
Pushups, situps and there was this ab machine my parents bought. You sit down up right and use it like a weighted situp. But I was so weak at the time I used it for rows as a kid hehe.
Would do like 20 pushups 20 situps and 10 rows repeat 5x. =]
Nah, I have not been injured by doing any exercises.
But I did hurt myself doing other things non exercise related which lasted like a day. =o
The exercises I do actually helped my pain tolerance and strengthened my whole body. I don't get injured, but I do feel pain like another other person would hehe.
The only reason someone would get injured during exercise is bad form, to much weight, or the exercise they did was too advanced for their body to handle.
It's better to build a strong base before doing more advanced exercises. Such as One arm pullups. Make sure the ligaments are strong enough to handle that much pressure.
Actually I don't stretch at all. After reading SuperStretch by Mel Siff. I no longer stretch. Stretching actually doesn't help with actual athletic movement but only passive stretching. Doing exercises are better for flexibility.
I do a small warm up that last between 2-5 minutes to get ready. Then I exercise. Nothing too tiring but enough to get me warmed up.
When I think of how I want to train and the different concepts, this guy is already doing it. Its like viewing my own thoughts. This is amasing! good training.
I stopped isolation training and doing more compound/explosive movements and conditioning. I do Olympic lifts with a dumbbell but not a barbell because a dumbbell is easier to learn than the actual lift. Plus I don't know anyone to show me proper form in person. I enjoy unilateral movements for exercising as of lately.
I do barbells rarely to mix it up but I started to prefer dumbbells only this year. =]
The focus with clap pushups are more for explosive strength and not strength endurance. The reason is because when you push up, it's supposed to be has hard as you can. And of course pushing as hard as you can and then clapping will tire you out faster than normal pushups would. =]
how long did it take to get that strong?

But I did hurt myself doing other things non exercise related which lasted like a day. =o
The exercises I do actually helped my pain tolerance and strengthened my whole body. I don't get injured, but I do feel pain like another other person would hehe.

The only reason someone would get injured during exercise is bad form, to much weight, or the exercise they did was too advanced for their body to handle.
It's better to build a strong base before doing more advanced exercises. Such as One arm pullups. Make sure the ligaments are strong enough to handle that much pressure.

Do you do any stretches before working out?
Roarrr456 4 years ago
Actually I don't stretch at all. After reading SuperStretch by Mel Siff. I no longer stretch. Stretching actually doesn't help with actual athletic movement but only passive stretching. Doing exercises are better for flexibility.
I do a small warm up that last between 2-5 minutes to get ready. Then I exercise. Nothing too tiring but enough to get me warmed up.

thats insane dude very impressive!!! how long have you been doing the ross training??
2nort 4 years ago
Only for 8 months.
But Ross doesn't like to say it's his training style because he didn't invent anything. He just passes on the information to others. =]

what about muscle strength(power/olympic lifts)? I curl 110 dumbells cheating, 90 correct for 5 reps.
Ebuverthebicepcurler 4 years ago
I'm not sure I don't train for curls anymore hehe =]
But last I checked, I did 70lbs back on the bench, sitting down for reps beginning of this year.
zabinjay 4 years ago
I stopped isolation training and doing more compound/explosive movements and conditioning. I do Olympic lifts with a dumbbell but not a barbell because a dumbbell is easier to learn than the actual lift. Plus I don't know anyone to show me proper form in person. I enjoy unilateral movements for exercising as of lately.
I do barbells rarely to mix it up but I started to prefer dumbbells only this year. =]

wow nice stuff, im sure with that all round natural strengh you'll do great in boxing if you put the time in to it..
How many normal clap push ups can you do? with a normal clap in front of you, cheers.
hairy24 4 years ago
Thanks for the compliment! =]
Actually I never tried, but I would guess probably around 20-30 because clap pushups tires my arms out hehe.
zabinjay 4 years ago
The focus with clap pushups are more for explosive strength and not strength endurance. The reason is because when you push up, it's supposed to be has hard as you can. And of course pushing as hard as you can and then clapping will tire you out faster than normal pushups would. =]
