Much respect to all of you for watching these and supporting the channel! I hope this was helpful!
In a response to countless DM’s and Emails, in this video, I explain how strong I was at different times throughout my lifting Journey. Comparing is Stupid…but we all do it… So if you want to know how strong I was at 19 or 29 or 39 just keep watching. I also show a lot of videos from a decade ago so you can laugh at my hair and form…

Something not mentioned here is that some peoples sternums do not actually tolerate dips. These are all helpful tips for people not getting sternum pain but for anyone watching and looking at the comments if your sternum (bone in the middle of your chest) hurts, try a shallower dip only to parellel, if that hurts. You cannot safely perform dips. Find an alternative.

Such a cool video Brian. I can only do about 6 full dips so also work on holding the bottom position isometrically for time. I can do it for around 40 seconds so now want to add weight. What length of chain is best? I see people threading it through a pool noodle so it doesn't dig into their back however i'd prefer to just use the chain if that's ok just like in the video. I bought a dip stand and apart from my olympic barbell i think it's the best piece of equipment i've ever owned.

i wear my chains like a backpack: loop behind the neck, in front of shoulders and back behind my lower back again. longer lengths like figure 8 on it's side (infinity sign) with karabiner forming the cross behind mid back. way easier to put on and off, no danger to sensitive zone ;)

Great video! Some of these tips I've never seen before! Slingshot/resistance band assistance is far better than the conventional way of putting it around your legs.(You can keep your leg hair now!) If I may, could I suggest that you do your dips looking forward Mr. Alsruhe? In my (rather limited) experience, it has helped me push more weight, be more stable, and protect my shoulders. Would love to hear you thoughts, and keep up the good work!

@BrianAlsruheOfficial 4 жыл бұрын

That would be craning your neck under load similar to the deadlift. I would highly advise that you don’t do that. Unless you are just talking about keeping your neck neutral, then I would agree. But if you just look straight forward, you are sticking pressure on your spine it doesn’t want

Can you give some tips about squats at my home gym, if i don't have a rack, or something like that. At every squat session i need to first press that a little bit heavy barbell above my head, and then after i finish my squats i need to press it the same way again.. But, a front squats a lot easier at that point, but doing just a front squats that probably not that effective.. With love from Russia (Platonic) :)

@drip369 4 жыл бұрын

Are you using a bench with rack for your squats? Many many years ago I did and I agree, front squats seemed easier, until you're rolling the center of gravity too much on your toes. Lower the pins and treat the bench like a box squat to rack and unrack, still walk away for the reps in between

I noticed someone made a comment asking for this last video which got a lot of likes and requests and you liked it yourself - knowing that you are actively taking feedback from your audience is another reason why you’re one of the best guys out there for KZfaq fitness. Thanks for all the videos man. If I can offer a couple suggestions myself for videos I’d love to see... -Dos and donts of recovery -Programming strength sports/training into martial arts training -Rest pause training (how to utilize it, importance of it, how to program, etc - specifically things like 20rep breathing squats) - for one of your “question of the week” videos a fun one might be to ask your gym members what the dumbest/silliest/worst fitness advice they ever read or heard in a commercial gym and also the best thing they ever heard. Could be pretty funny as well as informative. Bonus: dealing with injury (everything from assessment of how bad it is to recovery and mentally dealing with it) - this one I say bonus because it could probably be included into another larger topic of some sort, even the do’s and donts of recovery. Thanks for everything brother!!
