Hey, did you receive my email message? I called you about a month or two ago about coaching, and I have not heard back from you. Don’t worry if you have been too busy to get back to me. Thanks.

Hey Jim after the single on the max effort movements would you focus primarily on sets of 10+ for a bjj athlete training 6 days a week? I’ve seen multiple options on this. Some saying to use heavier accessory work and others saying to use sets of 10+ on the accessories to avoid joint soreness. I also am not convinced I would need ‘assistance movements’ as bjj is so dynamic and always in different positions. Would it be a good idea to just hit a heavy single on max effort day followed by Hypertrophy work to build armour / muscular endurance etc? For example here is a week I wrote (limited volume as bjj 6x per week). What do you think? ME Bench 1RM Flat DB Bench 3x10 Inverted Row 3x1RIR DB Laterals 3x12-15 Arms 3x10-12 ME SQ / DL 1RM SSB Good Morning 3x10 GHR 3x1RIR Abs 3x1RIR Speed Bench 5x5 Flat DB Bench 3x10 Inverted Row 3x1RIR DB Laterals 3x12-15 Arms 3x10-12 Speed Box Squat 5x5 Speed Deadlift 5x5 SSB Good Morning 3x10 GHR 3x1RIR Abs 3x1RIR

Ooh SF compound gym up here at jblm nice

Programs are 🐎💩... Just go balls to the wall every single day with gusto, no program needed if you bring that intensity in everything you do. Worrying about the gains on the table if you don't do the optimal Johnny Powerlifter program will cause you more stress than it is worth.

You know it’s going to be a good video if the gym has a poster of Arnold

Good stuff. I like it.

Hey Jim awesome video! You think conjugate works well for combat athletes? I do bjj 5-6x per week. Was doing to do a 4 day conjugate but run it over a 3 day week and roll the next workout to the following week. Could I just do the following: max effort single + lighter speed work (more explosive) + Hypertrophy work work. Or should supplemental work be heavy too? As a bjj athlete we tend to put a premium on upper body pulling, curls and grips. Here’s a sample week of training I made: ME Bench 1RM Paused Bench 3x10-12 Single Arm DB Row 3x10-12 Axle Inverted Row 3x1RIR BB Curl 3x10-12 ME SQ / DL 1RM Good Morning 3x10-12 Single Leg Squat 3x10-12 Abs 3x1RIR Obliques 3x1RIR Speed Bench 5x5 @ 40% W Bands Press 3x10-12 Single Arm DB Row 3x10-12 Axle Inverted Row 3x1RIR BB Curl 3x10-12 Speed Box Squat 5x5 @ 40% W Bands Speed Deadlift 5x5 @ 40% W Bands Good Morning 3x10-12 Abs 3x1RIR Obliques 3x1RIR I know there’s not much heavy work but I thought as a grappler I don’t need power lifting strength. Just bitter muscles and the ability to strain and move bars fast right??? I also thought that doing most of the work at this 10+ range would be easier on my joints and have me feeling less beat up? Or would it be beneficial to do more heavy work on supplemental stuff? Sorry for the long post! Thanks Jim

Hi Jim, Thank you for the thorough video! Im currently looking to enter the tactical realm & was curious as to how your early application process went? I see that there are many different contractors, so should i just assume im applying for the same job through different contractors & waiting to see which one of them is awarded the contract?

How did you get into tactical strength and conditioning?

These videos are amazing. As an aspiring tactical strength and conditioning coach myself, these are extremely helpful. Are there any internship opportunities for the strength and conditioning of tactical athletes out there?

Thanks for the information, just wanted your opinion on my situation : I'm a personal trainer at a luxury hotel in Morocco seeking to elevate my skills. Considering the CSCS entails a year of bachelor's study (sports management degree) costing $4k, with the exam requiring a trip to Egypt due to limited centers in Morocco ( i'll definitely come to usa in the future) , is it worthwhile, given its limited recognition here? Alternatively, would courses such as CPPS, Poliquin Group, or Paul Chek provide more practical benefits? Thanks Ps: i have ISSA S&C,NASM CPT in addition to internship with show up fitness

"PromoSM"

My man squats like 800 lbs and thought we wouldn't notice

Hats off brother! That’s motivation all the way. I’m only at a 225 bench but I’m still showing up. Merry Christmas

Squat: 595 + 200lbs chain; bench: 425 + doubled minis; deadlift: 730

Animal 🔥

Great stuff, how many mesocylces would you typically recommend a conjugate program for before the gains taper off as you mentioned? Also for the hypertrophy, is that done during those mesos or in a dedicated training block? Thanks!

Thanks for sharing ! I’m a huge fan of conjugate

I belong to a local SWAT team that gets a decent amount of work that actually matters. Do you think your training principles for MIL guys translates to LEO work? I am trying to get my team to a higher standard thats measurable and have been considering the ACFT to start. I appreciate how you tailor this to the operator. I had a personal trainer for a while that was great to work with for supplementing movements to my injuries or lack of mobility. Great stuff.

Look at the money invested. 35 years ago when I was in the gyms were very basic. We mainly ran ran and body weight exercises. This guy knows what he is talking about but is this equipment needed? Special operations do not need to be power lifters. Look at Navy Seals in buds it is mainly body weight.

Audio is 🔥

Great breakdown, Coach.

hey jim, nice stache

Finally some quality tactical content.

Sweet dude. Bar speed on bench was sick.

What a maaannnnn

Good job bro! I'm addicted to In Due Time right now! Great tune

Sure it's just the shirt?

That shirt makes me look fat!

Thank you!

Thank you!

you have some great training footage man, keep up the good work!

Followed this from the wendler facebook page...amazing!

Hey, have to be good at something!

If they had a raw, belt less,405 for reps challenge in pwl i think you would have a shot!

It depends. If you have to take a minute to get yourself set up, both mentally and physically, then do it. But, the way I see it, there's no reason to be nervous about a weight. It's either going to move or it's not. So just have confidence in yourself, your training, and your ability. Some people can grip and rip, others need to take more time. It just depends on you. I sometimes do the grip-rip, and sometimes, especially in gear, take a lot of time to get set up. So yeah, up to you!

You're a beast man! Do you think the time you spend before actually doing the lift makes a big difference? I find I take longer when it's a weight i'm nervous about, so maybe gripping and ripping it would be better?

Bill, was planning to compete in March, but things in my life have changed, and I probably won't be around to do it. So, right now, I'm just training to train, be stronger/bigger, and feel better about myself.

Nice work man. Are you preparing to compete or strictly personal gain? Keep up the good work, Quads and Forearms are looking strong!

Thanks man. It just takes time to get things right. When I first started lifting I thought my form and technique were pretty solid, but definitely kept learning and improving along the way. As far as weight goes, again, it just takes time and dedication. I'm really nothing special, considering that there are guys out there in lighter weight classes than me who can lift more than I can. But yeah, time and dedication and focus.

Your squats are so damn smooth man. One day, I just might be able to squat the weight you do, but I have a long way to go haha.

bahaha good to see a PLer with a sense of humor, sweet pulls, looking forward to seeing your competition lifts too!

Just get on Google and search "powerlifing gear" and see what you end up with. There are a few main companies that make gear; Inzer, Titan, Metal, Overkill. Just do some research and you'll find out.

No, its not really momentum, because at least in the deadlift, you're starting from a dead stop. Yes, you get some stretch out of the suit, and the stretch reflex of your own muscles, but it's not as if you're adding momentum to it. A deadlift suit will give you additional pulling power off the floor.

It supports you, and stores energy to a degree. Think of a rubber band--as it stretches, it stores energy, and when relaxed, releases that energy. A suit performs in a roughly similar manner. As you squat down to the bar, you're loading the suit, and as you stand up, it "pops", and gives you assistance off the floor. Wearing a suit or shirt doesn't guarantee lifting big weights, but it helps. Does that answer your question?

Hahaha. I will never be able forget SOCK!!!

Thank you for the response. One correction I think you are going into realization phase next, with an emphasis on seeing how everything has improved thus far. I will continue to monitor your growth I'm all areas! And I'm apologize, I did my see past the ebony and ivory and the extensive Masterbation jokes to see the real commentary in your logs, I truly apologize and will turn the volume up next go around!!!! Best of luck at your upcoming meet.... Just remember SOCK!!!!!!!

weeks. I am currently operating at 80-83%, and as I explained in my commentary, a RPE of 8 for my supplemental work. I hope this answers your questions, and please, feel free to contact me regarding any further concerns or questions you may have. I am more than willing to share my extensive knowledge with you.

Mr. Winder, I perform two complex movement on the same day in order to get as strong as possible. As I'm sure you know, considering your revered status as Master Troll, block periodization, and other forms of training, usually call for a "main movement" followed by a "supplemental movement" that taxes the body in a similar fashion as the main movement, but with some variation. I am still in the Transmutation phase of my training, and should be moving into the accumulation phase in the next few

Mr Seratt, Why do you do two complex movements on the same day so close to your meet? Shouldn't percentages be climbing at this point or are you still in the Transmutation phase of your training?
