I got and fight with a rattlesnake and lion at the same time and the pussy cat tried to scratch me I said nah pussy yeah you should see him mother fucker hanging on my wall give me your best angry cat no no you're not gonna make me do this I'll put it online yeah you do it first something like that like it gets in here you know my best cat is the fuck kind of lion are you fighting the soreness is the way that's not bad right like three four days really bad soreness back's a little pump kind of a lazy weekend I need to move a little more on the weekends so like Saturday the gigs I deadlifted but then Sunday I need to go for like a walk or something I think kind of prep my shit for this start getting back in the flow like trying to be in a optimize everything you can like you can train and get somewhere but training while you feel good you know it's a much different process like how you sleep how you eat I like a burger and like yeah the calories help for stuff like this but I just don't feel good you know like a bacon burger all that so trying to find that of like having fun mentally eating more calories mentally recovering but still not being a lazy bum like it's not optimal there's like train your tits off and then just lay on a couch and eat donuts all day a little bit of walking you know a little bit you know some nutrition maybe a vegetable here in there mother fuckers might help coming in I just wonder where I'm and I think part of the reason why it's difficult for you to hold on to your brace while you're in the position that you're in or hold excuse me to hold the pause while you're in the position that you're in is because of your racing so you you haven't had this tendency to kind of use a lot of body English when you're going and you're almost kind of raising your chest I'm over exaggerating but you're really raising your chest and as a result of that your rib cage is kind of pointing away from the direction of your pelvis generally speaking kind of crushed you don't know I got such a big pelvis so it's still pointing that way cage a little bit more in line with the pelvis is going to make it easier for you to have your torso function as one unit right which is what we want in the squad we want the torso with the torso to move through spaces if it's one complete unit despite the fact that our spine typically wants to wants to go in different directions we don't want that we want to ignore that a lot of times people always talk about having your chest up right we don't want to do that we want to let our not necessarily let our chest fall but we want our rib cage in line with our pelvis so that we can move through space easier so what I want you to do right anything else before you after you've walked out I want you to actually expel a little bit of air so if you put your hands right here with me if you go and expel air you should feel your rib cage come down a little bit that's kind of that feeling we want to chase and then we want to actively contract our abs before breathing in so breathe out and track those abs should feel like you know it's kind of hard to talk and then and only then do we breathe in breathe in breathe in breathe in through either our nose or perched lips okay this is as close as a kiss wish me good luck on my next set hurts those lips daddy yeah now notice there wasn't any body English there my my rib cage did not come up at all I just breathed in created a solid brace work on that thank you coach yes go put the cues into motion I just wanna win I'm on ten again pump up the active if he never heard of been dopey just napping Jackson's off the rapping keep it on my body time broke if you ask it was for we fucked up was we five that's oh my god he was just jousted me what is this King Arthur's court so you running at me like this he tried to just hit me like a seafood skewer on two things that come to mind three maybe one we're trying to build muscle or build strength a lot of a lot of people have known it something we've done for a very long time but there's a couple of recent studies that have confirmed it that frequency training to the muscle group or at lift two to three times a week versus one times a week I think volume antiquated so volume is the same the amount of muscle strength you build is literally like double makes sense though right when it when it all these old bro splits and people to annihilate their biceps where they're training every seven days in the in the sake of recovery is bullshit because we don't really want to recover what we want to do is adapt so we want to keep throwing stimulus and adapt to it adapt to it adapt to it cause ourselves to grow point number two when considering programming there's also studies but it's been kind of an argument but there's just no there's no argument to be had that building muscle and having more muscle and building muscle over time is essential and so important to building strength that doesn't mean like the because then people like oh well bodybuilders aren't jack will know or bodybuilders aren't strong but the number one is that in your physical form if I could get more muscle I'm gonna be stronger as me and building more muscle over time more strength is gonna be best number three building muscle in a rep range what's the best rep range people ask that all time like oh you got to do 10s to 15s you don't it's basically shown again that anywhere from like threes all the way up to I believe like 15s or 20s as long as we're getting the intensity there meaning how close to failure how hard we're pushing it each set with the recovery with the protein is all gonna be the same so the fact that powerlifting or doing triples or fours like today can't build muscle is just incorrect if I'm a couple reps shy failure and I'm pushing myself we'll build muscle doing two is three is four is five's we don't have to do sets of ten on deadlift to build more muscle for the tiktokers out there that are all about the RDL for some reason and your only argument that you have is that there's an eccentric load rather than just a concentric like a deadlift itself well how about we just deadlift slower if you think deadlift build no muscle and deadlift the most useless risk to reward to build muscle or be a good athlete I think you're full of shit I think powerlifting is literally the second safest sport on the planet besides bodybuilding if you want to call that a sport or activity because bodybuilding you can choose different exercises but there's more less injury in powerlifting than every other sport across the country you're gonna go to every seventh and eighth grade basketball court and say risk to reward you kids you're gonna hurt your ankles no when you're getting better or doing physical activity yes there's risk to building but you were talking about a lot of times people will antiquate that tour or talk to versus a football player or a basketball player not deadlifting their sport in themselves is way more likely to get an injury upon impact upon random occurrence or even just as an athlete itself so you're gonna tell them not to scrimmage you're gonna tell them not to run you're gonna tell them not to do suicide drills that's going to cause way more injury weight the likelihood of injuries way beyond a deadlift so we want to build muscle why don't we just slow down the eccentric of the deadlift make it more like an RDL where you can handle more load that way I don't know man you guys can let my work speak for itself you know you can build a dumper doing some conventional there's not uncle duties we actually talked about on the podcast too Abby said I'd be a bad dad I said I just can't see him as a dad my little nephew Tyka some of you may know if you watch part in jail go ahead and start make a magic poor little homies had going through some health stuff and so they're trying to figure out why he's maybe having some seizures and he had a couple and then now they didn't find what they needed so they're doing a 24 hour one and so a poor dude's got to have it and it just broke my little heart Geo posted saying that he feels weird or that he's extra and so I want to let him know that he doesn't look weird and that I think he looks cool and so I'm gonna do a deadlift set with the same I think he's got like prods going you know like a little metal sticker things and when you're a kid bro even in high school I remember like feeling dumb or looking dumb you know like you get self-conscious all the way up to like 17 18 even adults deal with it right that's like that's honestly why I design clothes like not to get too sappy like I like clothes but a lot of it if you root it down is I like clothes because like the confidence they give me in the outfits I wear like it makes me feel cool and like there's nothing to it right it's fabric my fabric is the same as that fabric but in basketball growing up and all sports going out whatever like looking good and feeling good it's such a different confidence builder and so if I can design things that make you feel cool or feel good that confidence will go into different areas of your life and like that was the root of all why buy sneakers it's not to like flex like oh I got these other expensive sneakers it's because certain sneakers certain fits make me feel cool and sometimes we all need that man despite I never call myself like a non-confident human we're even talking about it I usually be called cocky a lot but I've always been very confident who I am but everyone needs to set routine and we talk about routine and habits to to feel good to set yourself up for success I think the mentality we have going every day if it's as dumb as something wearing a cool hat makes you feel cool and do better I think you do it
