Great machine. We had one in our powerlifting gym in the late 90s when they were new. I did them 3-4 times per week 2 heavy and 2 very light for back health. If I tweaked my back deadlifting a light session on this machine would usually fix it!

Is this something that would be helpful for people with hyper mobility in their wrists? I injure my wrists constantly opening doors just from the push, so im afraid to start lifting.

Great video

Thank you for the explanation! Great video!

For me, titan fitness tends to hit that sweet spot between "will not explode mid set and impale my intestines" and "forgoing parenthood because I spent $15,000 on fitness equipment and told myself I was investing in my health"

Wow. This entire time, me trying to convince myself that I just couldn't hold the weight because my grip would give out.. tried it with the straps, easy peasy.. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I have small hands, and I can't do a hook grip to save my life!! I hope I never find myself hanging off a cliff. 😂

Just gave some advice to a kid that was not doing preacher curls correctly. Unsolicited, and he was kinda caught off guard. After talking to him some more, learned he had only been working out for 6-8 months. All I did was show him how to isolate his biceps and go super slow on the negative to build up the muscle closest to his elbow. He thanked me afterward, and now I have another new gym friend. He left his ego at the door and ended up learning something new because of it.

People’s egos and pride are so sensitive nowadays 🤷‍♂️

I started with the empty bar but 2 x 5kg plates for the deadlift. If you make a mistake when starting better to do so with a light weight.

No fucking difference.

TY goated vid

Hi I'm a newbie and loving this channel. So am i correct in thinking its 5 ×5 sets x

What about if you get hit in the chest when doing martial arts?

Only a few understand what a goldmine this channel is!!! You've to be lifting for a few years before you start to see the true value in these videos. The channel is not for the kids!

What about breathing through pursed lips/hissing on the exertion phase to relieve too much IAP and mitigate a possible hernia/aneurysm?

I’ve always avoided using straps because I wanted to work on grip strength. Now that I’m 65 I found out the reason for the extreme pain in my thumbs is due to arthritis (diagnosed by hand specialist- I was hoping it was something more treatable). The doctor says I need to use straps or whatever can allow me to minimize the use of my thumbs in pulling type exercises. This change is working wonders! But now that I’m doing lighter weights and more reps (due to age) I’m a little self conscious of using straps for relatively light weights. Oh well, getting old sucks but at least I can keep lifting.

I dont see a jump when he racks

Any preworkout routine that includes Martin Luther is worth watching!

looks good for the bedroom

Do you need to do that stretch at the bottom that so many people do letting their lats stretch then pull up or is this strict way more effective?

wow great wise words... i didn't know that 50% of the video explains the words easy and hard... what a waste

Excellent video, thank you!!

Allright. The next leg day, I'm bringing my laptop to the basement so I can watch and rewatch this until my apparently dumb ass can finally figure it out. (And they let me be an appellate criminal defense attorney! Did great in law school! And .... i can't get _straps_ on well enough to use them to take my max above my grip limitation)

I was on a treadmill. Once I finished I felt a bit woozy and i threw up. Then I realized this is serious. I decided to drive to the clinic as it started to pain. Thankfully I made it. The clinic did an ecg and confirmed variations in my Ecg. They gave me aspirin and nitroglycerin and called the ambulance to take me to te nearest hospital. In the hospital, while waiting for the surgeon, I was adamant not to put a stent. But on the xray it showed a100% block on the LAD. I had no choice. One stent and post operation, i was weak it my blood pressure was taking time to come back up to normal levels. I got out after 3 days. That was 1.5 years ago. Still cannot fathom how it happened to me. Still in denial at times. All my blood work was fine. The mistake I made was I did not go for a heart stress check. Anyway, this is what is destined and there may be good in it, in Sha Allah ( God Willing) and Al hamdu liLlah (praise to The Almighty) Feels good to read the comments here. Now I realise there are many who went through the same and are fighting through it. May Allah make all of us stronger, our hearts better than ever, protect our arteries and bless human kind with a cure to fix scarred hearts and damaged heart muscles.

Thanks. I'm trying to do dead hangs quite often for my back and neck issues and it's helping except that my grip won't let me hold the bar more than a minute and a half. I'm hoping I can hang for 4 or 5 minutes to really do some good work on my spine.

Complication is seductive 👍🏻

hes talking about training and has booze in the back lmaoo

started doing deadlifts but I keep farting cheese

Strength training and whisky in the background...

For anyone watching this, do this or use something else like a bench or hyper extension until you can afford to get it. My lower back went and I know why and it was the most painful i have experienced. This was because the glutes were weak. Your glutes plays a huge role for your hip flexors, and everything else, plus there's a muscle that connections to your hips and up to the middle of your back. It runs through the glutes, and so when that tightens due to not exercising it, due to sitting a lot, it gets smaller and so it puts pressure on your spine and your hips, and it only takes on mistake on a deadlift, a pendley row due sitting a lot at your desk and lack of stretching, excercises. It snaps, and you feel pain in lower back, glutes, middle lower of glutes so you can't even sit down and walk. Now you know why old people who walk slow not because they are old but due to lack of care of their body, muscles etc. I healed through lots of stretching daily and using this machine. Doctors said I needed surgery, all sorts but I refused. I am now recovered, strong doing dead lifts, pendley rows they said I'd never be able to do again! You got this machine in gym..use it often!

Been experiencing pain in my palm while deadlifting resulting in weight limitation, now i finally bought the straps and will try your tips. Thanks Matt

@BarbellLogic When did you restart lifting? I tried to restart a novice 5x5 program with a MWF cadence...got through the Mon workout fine....but when i tried the Wed workout it felt like my ❤ was about to jump out my chest...scared the sh*t outta me. Think I started bk too early.

I am 72 and have lifted all my life. At 72, still rail lift 518 pounds. I absolutely love the weight room. Never too old.

If you don't have any kind of sandbag lift or carry, this isn't about the simplest strength moves

Excellent advice. I’d gotten used to the wsf wraps with the buckle and was using them almost all lifts. I now using the thumb hooks ones and only on the heavier lifts
