Fascinating discussion. I love hearing all the sport-specific training philosophy. It’s amazing how many different ways there are to train our bodies. It’d be cool to see you meet up with other coaches in other random sports and see what types of movements they would throw at you. Again, all the nuance and emphasis on practicality is a refreshing departure from the often dogmatic world of science-based lifting. The story about motivating athletes by making training competitive was great.

Absolutely loving these videos, loads of good information, getting a varied perspective on training for a bunch of different goals is awesome, incredibly helpful and entertaining

What’s your motivation for doing that marathon stuff? Guessing you got into that before more general fitness work and can’t let go?

What’s up man glad you’re posting consistently. I’ve been doing your thick n quick program and have been seeing great results

The merry Christmas countdown in background 😂

Cool stuff Alec! Suggestion for the time stamps, if you have a timestamp starting at 0:00 (called "intro" or whatever), it will allow the viewer to actually see the different chapters/timestamps on the screen of the video. This makes it easier to see which chapter/section is being discussed. You can try it and see the difference. Anyways, thanks for all the content. Keep it up!!

Hey that is a neat format : alec tries X (basketball s&c, mma s&c, strongman stuff, climbing, gymnastics, etc...)

Great session!

It's time. Call it the Blenis Twist.

Picking up a lot from these. The different cues on the adductor machine are exactly what I intuitively did, but I hadn’t seen someone articulate it.

Humbling

10kg on these fuck me up baaaaaad... Using heelelevation makes it like 80% easier.

I want to see how you get in this position/ set up for this movement & then how you get out of it.

Hy alec this is totally out of context am texting here hoping that would reply ,using hack squat and making it a glute biased movement seems dumb right you can't make it glute biased because how high you keep the leg on the platform form the load is still behind your back and line of force is so close to the hip so basically the moment arm of hip is so small compared to the knee so quads will always have to do more work on a hack squat - love to hear your openion

Forget the Tren twins this is the Zesty Rascals 💪🏻

Oh shit I've already seen this done as a deadlift alternative, but thought it wasn't gonna be that great. What do you think about doing it that way? Or even more out there in a circular motion?

Do you have any programs to follow? Paid? Free? Anything?

This has massively carried over to real world applications

So are you working the obliques and QL in this exercise? Could you do it without the straddle stance?

i wonder if these exercise will help me with order selecting. Alec?

Holy shit dude you are goated

whats the snatch variation mentioned at the beginning?

that high pitched squeal during the flat bench 🤣🤣🤣

Started those Zercher deadlifts myself only a few weeks ago, and I absolulty love how amazing my posterior chain feels afterwards I too usually go straight to my deadlifts when I'm done now. My back always slightly tweaks when I deadlift over 400, pretty sure in a few months that won't be an issue anymore.

Don't know what Austin was talking about with that 20 rep set of squats lmfao. There must've been like 70%+ velocity loss on that last rep compared to the first. Looked brutal.

You boys invented like 3 new Snatch variations this day.

That guy sat on his phone while doing good girls🤦That, I think we can agree, is sub optimal and to far from failure 😂

Audio-only version for the pod apps, please!

Great video! Can you make it so the sound comes out of both speakers instead stereo. 🙏🙏🙏

This is very clever

TWO OF MY FAVORITE PPL IN FITNESS LFGOOOOO

Fantastic

10/10

Nice! I recently did 2 45s+ a 25 at my upper shoulders! Got five reps!

These are great. Turing on the bell notifications for these

I love the casual nature of these. The banter and conversation feels natural and it produces some great content.

Your mobility is INCREDIBLE! What do you call that middle excercise? It looks like a SLDL, a good morning, and a zercher squat had an evil baby lol. I wanna try it!

Great vid and great gym

Alec on the Jochum Podcast again ASAP

See you all in 2032 for episode 3!

These are so fun to watch and listen to. Guest have been smart and chill guys. I can see why you're friends with them. A lot of good info about training and how it fits into peoples personal life. I was getting a bit sick of everyone talking about studies and the same optimal exercises all the time

Thank you for your videos! I had a quick question please: In the video you say something like "I took 'core' training to the limit and there's nothing really there". Just to check I understand you correctly, if I expanded that idea out do you mean: "There's no point in static 'core' exercises like planks for the intermediate/advanced athlete, you get that 'bracing' from lifting (Deadlifts etc). Instead you should do dynamic weighted exercises through full ROM such as those demonstrated in your collab with Eugene Teo Apr 29, 2024 'The Advanced Ab Exercises That Actually Work (Seriously)'". (Sorry to be wordy, I set that out in full in hopes that would let you give a quick yes/no answer, and save you the typing)🤣🤣

Love this series! do one with angus in the future.

great video! Epic workout!

I’m really enjoying the grounded, experience-based, nuanced discussion. Also, microworkouts ftw. Get it done when you can.

Great workout. Thank you for sharing

This is gold! Thank you Alec!

MN homeboys! 🤞🏽 started following you from seeing your Murph world record. Nice to hear a glimpse of the plank WR

Yep! Love being a master of super sets and getting in and out in 45 mins. It’s not less productive, it’s just straight business 14:21

Dude these have been awesome looking forward to more!
