    Love the Meadows reference. I never had the pleasure to meet him in person but I considered him (and still do) one of my best mentors. Informative, entertaining, innovative. John had all these qualities but what I appreciated most about him was his never ending kindness, respect and open mindedness to learn from others, even after decades of experience. He was such a gentle giant and is still missed to this day. Thanks Eugene for keeping his legacy alive.

    @@petrruzicka3461 weight is not an absolute indicator of strength. The physics of a given movement will determine the load and the relative leverage needed to overcome that load. If you have a plate loaded machine loaded with a platform at 30 degrees vs 45 degrees that will completely alter the relative load you experience. The reason why people think leg press is easy is because they position themselves at the top of the platform, shorten the range of motion and utilize their hips, whereas if you sit at the bottom of the platform and utilize heel drive, the emphasis shifts.

Hitting my personal bests atm in the "soldier style" bench press (legs up, I haven't done the normal version in 2 years) so this was more than great reminder. And if someone is now wondering what my pb's might be: 5x5 110kg with 90kg bw :)

    The idea of challenge sets 1-4 weeks or so is a great concept to mention! As a beginner lifter I feel there’s a heavy misconception on how much volume we should start of with which results in a lot of beginners overtraining rather than approaching their training more strategically to maximize strength goals and recovery. I’m Greatful for your videos and knowledge ! I’ve been debating the past few weeks if I should take a break on back squat and just work on my leg press tech and hax squat strength but this video gave me the clarity I needed.
