@Long_Term_Game And if he wants to dunk, deadlifting from a deficit or explosive rack pulls would be more beneficial for his goal. For a guy like Brian who is all about efficiency, he has better options.
Trap bar propped on 2 plates with a 5 in range of motion to build raw maximum force? Again, being a tech billionaire doesn’t mean you can’t be a fucking idiot.
I'm 49, training to dunk.
A new PR today: 365 lbs for 2 reps.
I’m aiming for a ~35” vertical. At 180 lbs, I'll need a take off velocity of 14.5 ft/s in 0.2 seconds, to generate 585 lbs of force, and 11 kW of peak power.
This lift helps build the raw maximal force ceiling.
The track references 2010s Pop the Glock by Uffie. This is just the kind of quality parody you get: 16 years of hindsight and a genre that’s been litigated in the music press to get this stunning insight.
@as_a_worker Harboring these feelings at skateboarders as a whole grown adult, tells me someone still hasn’t gotten over not being able to skate with “the cool kids” in high school.
@p_feif80 This is like watching someone who can memorize a big long number: sure it’s impressive, but ultimately soulless, and just regurgitation not creation.
I assume he’s doing these based on his form here because if he gets any closer to the proper position with his ass lower and more in a squat his whole form breaks down. Instead of dropping weight and working the lift, we have science jargon tossed in to sound impressive e.
I’m 6’4 and use the trap bar because of bulging discs and it puts me in a better position for my form. The grip sits a little higher than a BB.
What he should be doing is standing on those two plates to do deficit deadlifts. Instead he is ego lifting here.
Tired of rejection and the pressure to get everything right, a new generation is discovering the cathartic release of clowning. Big shoes not required. https://t.co/gYQsb1ejek
The best version of this is The Flintstones, where they replace “The Bar” with “The Bowling Alley.” 80% of episodes revolve around Fred sneaking out to go to a bowling alley, it’s wild.
