9:07 toilet talk

dave tate is another one of those encyclopaedias for weight lifting. if it wasn't for people like this who have really tried to put an emphasis on teaching in an understandable way, i wouldn't be anywhere near where i am now.

Dave is a coach thru and thru. When they were getting off topic talkin about Dave's quickness and Dave immediately snapped em back. LEGEND!

Hips, pelvis and lower back exercises from a strength training perspective are extremely important and overlooked. Good seeing more content on it!

“So when they skip their abs later I kinda snuck it in there” Dave just violated my whole life

Hahaha after watching Dave demonstrate “Sit to Stand” for what felt like 10 minutes I’m convinced that this is how I’m going to view Functional Fitness when I’m 55; “is this exercise going to help me get off the toilet properly?? “

Got a lot of quality content from this visit man! Loving this little mini series

I did this warm up routine twice now I don't need metamucil anymore. And on the wellness side this was fantastic pre-heavy squats and deadlift thank you sir

Really excited to try that skull crusher variation next workout!!!

I REALLY hope you three (+ Sam) continue to work together! Not only has the series been educational but also immensely entertaining.

i worked in special education, and we did 3x sets of 15 sit to stands, almost every day with the kids. it def makes a big difference

As I'm rehabbing my shoulders and I'm getting back to training hard, while needing serious strengthening on my abs (had a major surgery 3 ago and they're still the weak link), this hanging leg raise variation is very useful.

Instant like I am learning a lot on these videos with Dave! Watching them with pen and paper

Not only is Dave fantastic at explaining things for people, but he also is still a silverback Gorilla lol. He can shoot up from that box squat faster and more controlled than anyone I've ever seen. What a boss.

this was so perfect! thanks guys! ive been dealing with basically shin splints in my forearms and realized it was from skullcrushers. it got to the point where i was avoiding them because it was effecting other workouts, specifically my curls and biceps work. this is the best video i could have watched because i learned how to do them properly and take the strain off my elbows and wrists! now i can get good work done on my tris and bis and not sacrifice one for the other!

Szat is very respectful, synthetizes things really well too

Very informative content from Tate and Co! Been adding hypertrophy and varying my movement patterns utilising bands etc... for a while based on info from Tate and all at Elite lifts crew, thanks.

Interesting, I've been putting hanging leg raises at the end of my workouts, in order to decompress my spine after squatting and deadlifting. I'll have to try these out with straps and put them in the beginning as a warmup.

Szat strength blowing up! Love the content and Keep up the great work!

So much knowledge awesome stuff. I do decompress when I can. But, I was always taught to decompress the spine at the end of your workouts. Interesting to hear a different view. Seems like he treats it more as a dynamic stretch. I'll have to try this out. Awesome video, brother.

"No perfect warm-up" I needed to hear that!!

I'm about to buy a pair of those straps to do leg raises with.. I'm 6'3 and I find doing leg raises from a hanging position is damn near impossible and It makes it extremely difficult to actually engage my abs without focusing on my grip/shoulders. Now knowing about the decompression aspect (Didn't think about it at all) I'm definitely adding this to my routine, Good vid bro !

Glad I found this vid, been doing dead hangs after deadlifts for a while now; seems to help recovery speed a lot

Videos have been great lately.

Leg raises are great, I've included them as a form of Wenning warmups, 3x15 before DL's, coupled with deeeeeep very light leg presses(3x20) and I'm ready to pull like an animal. BTW. I need A LOT of work on my triceps and quads so past few clips were epic for me, thx!

Ive had bad sciatica pain for years and the last two years been doing stretches that have stoped it and my gains are taking off now because I can squat. If you get a chance could you ask Tate if he has anything he recommends opening the hip where the nerve runs.

Very informative.

The sit to stand in the hospital hit home. That’s some real talk.

I’ve always done hanging knee or leg raises to warm up for squats

Shoulder Hangs are incredible for shoulder Impingement! I'm retraining and also fixing shoulder Impingement in both shoulder and I'm doing heavy lifts pain free that used to cause me pain. Can't stress enough for strength athletes who are prone to shoulder injuries. This and Rotator cuff strengthening.

Dude I fully understand him, I don’t do leg raises often but when I do and just dead hang my spine and hips feel hella relaxed 😌

He’s a legend

Those box squats, boy! woooo! Livin' life

i actually completely removed skull crushers and behind the neck tricep stuff from my workout because they basically screw my elbows and wrists up too much and it catches up with me, but i might give his variant of skull crushers a try

[Skull Crushers] I typically write them off; I already achieve that arm angle (relative to my torso) in a Closegrip bench. And it’s more specific, can be loaded heavier, use bands, etc. You get shoulder extension in a dip, so the benefit of an overhead-behind the head-variation is shoulder Flexion. Closegrip bench, dips, and overhead extensions gives you work at three distinct shoulder angles. And it’s great training economy; two compound-supplemental movements and one single-joint accessory movement.

I think the difference for the Tricep Extension/Skullcrushers is that when you bring your elbows up further, and the bar back behind/above your head, it puts the long head of the tricep into the fully extended position on the stretch. I don't like the feeling as much, sure, but it's a different thing biomechanically that provides different advantages.

the last exercise is pretty similar to the JM press!

Dead hangs have been a lifesaver for my shoulders. Even as a much-too-fat dude at 270, they feel great and have essentially eliminated my shoulder impingement issues.

Had shoulder pain in rear delt/under armpit area for a long time after doing 80kg chins... Tried stretching lats, pecs, triceps hip flexor and nothing, until! I started training my glutes and now poof! No shoulder pain.

The sit to stand part completely blew my mind. I've been trying to fix my squat for so long and this might be the way I finally do it!

@SzatStrength

Very cool how sometimes how someone says something makes it click!

Cavalier says to do the skull crushers with the arms at a 45 degree angle back to always keep the tension on the triceps, and it does, but damn, does it put stress on the inside of the elbow. looking forward to trying some off these variations. Maybe just throw in some behind the back cable pulls to get the stretch on the triceps long head.

@petermozuraitis5219

2 жыл бұрын

IIRC he doesn’t say to do them at 45 degrees, he just says not 90 degrees overhead, I’ve been a viewer of Jeff for a decade and purchased some programs. Just a few degrees back is enough to keep the triceps working is wait he’s conveying

Changed to natural grip with dumbbells, helped a bunch with elbow stress.... and as I'm typing they do the same thing at the end of the video. Different motions as different tools in a toolbox. Grab the ones you need. Edit: neutral grip

I wonder what Dave thinks about decompression/inversion tables

The sit to stand is the number one exercise to maintain independence into old age. A lot of people in nursing homes are there because they couldn't get off toilet/ out of chair.

True words brother.

Dave Is the best.

Hi, what loops do they use at the start for the hanging leg raises?

1. Hanging Leg Raise 2. Squat (Sitting To Standing Position) 3. Skull Crushers/Tricep Extension (Closer To The Body for Injury Prevention)

Do hanging leg raises at the beginning of every workout!! Yay me!

Dave really is a Jedi night

Am I supposed to be able to stand up from sitting without leaning forward?

Sit to stand was a big deal weeks out of quad reattachment surgery. Learning how to move and brace properly changed how I get up/out of everything... Car, chair, stool, bed, toilet, floor, etc. Even changed how I turn and move. Injuries are blessings to expose you and fix the shit u didn't know u were doing incorrectly

Hanging leg raise is primarily a hip flexor exercise with some isometric stability of the abs that's the way most people do it

Joey is a fucking UNIT! Would also love to see him in a session with Louie))

Juji’s dirty toilet seat joke is actually much much more useful for the cue than I would think

Westside and their box squats...I like the JM press tho

When I let my hips drop and relax my abdomen I feel pain shoot up my lower back so is there a progression for this or am I genuinely messed up?

Can we take a moment to recognize the awesome reply rate to comments here? Hopefully the channel grows to the point that it sadly isn't possible.

its weird for me but the "above the head" triceps extensions feel overall best of them all, the least stress on elbows and best triceps feel...im not sure why

According to Doug Brignole, the hanging leg raise is not an ab exercise because the abs don't flex the hips. They only flex, laterally flex and rotate the torso. Leg raises only work the hip flexors.

What “bad reputation” was Dave referring to with the box-squat?
