Been lazy for almost 2 years now. I'm happy to come back to the gym and to your videos coach. Thank you for teaching me the best 5 moves in the gym.
Good health to you!
Man I'm 6'2, 261 Ibs and am happy but not satisfied with my 270 Ib bench and Rip is talking about benching 400 Ibs 😂. Calm down I gotta get to 315 first
@Iudex Gundyr I love how you trigger the SS fatties. I saw one kid on instagram all proud of going from lean to morbidly obese on starting strength. Fools.
Dude shut up and EAT MOAR
Lol nothing will make you feel worse about your lifts than Rip's expectations
@@spektre2100 he’s barely even benching over his body weight
@@loganfignewton To be fair it's not easy to do so at 270lbs.
Mark Rippetoe - 'Strong people are harder to kill than weak people, and more useful in general.'
So profound
“Hips are deep…quads fill up his pant legs…” 🤣
super gay
I can not find anywhere what that even means. hips are deep
@@maktiki DEEP hips, front to back.
@@user-uv9ji8ml2yEY BOI JUST SAW YOU ON DER.OTHER COMMENT BACK IN MY DAY ONLY sissy bois walkin roun town under 200lbs lacking deep hips that strong men like me be looking for!!! The Only thing I need der bench fer is benching a bitch off of me for a deep hipped man instead!!!
@@user-rd6vs6fh4r You can call it gay but those same dudes are squatting 400-500+ pounds
During highschool and college i was around 140lbs at 6 feet. Got no respect even though i wasn't totally sendentary, i played some sports, could do some bodyweight stuff, but in comparison to everyone i was small af. Now i'm around 180lbs and see and feel a huge difference in how others behave. If theres someone skinny with similar problems, don't hesitate, get bigger and stronger.
I agree. My world changed when I gained weight. I was initially sceptical about doing it through fear of bec fat. But it's the best decision I ever made. I went from 155lb to 230lb. The way in which people spoke to me changed completely. Sure, I don't have a six pack, but who gives a shit when you're walking around wearing a t-shirt all day?
The males in California desperately need this!
Being jacked/strong is way better than being small/weak.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Small/strong is better than big fat weak
@@Cormac-jd2kx100%, at the end of the day being strong is what you need to be
@@Z3AL316true. Strength is the most important thing in life.
Since a baby is born he’s doing strength and getting stronger. If not he dies.
Dave Chappelle had an amazing transformation
At 2:00 it sounds like a gay man describing his dreams with his crush 🫶🏼
🤣
There is definitely a cut off point.. big guys can't last all day on the jobsite..it's more often you find yourself having to more 1000 rocks that weigh 20 pounds. Then 20 rocks at 1000 lbs..
Big guys wear out because gym rats don’t do cardio
Manual labor is for poor people
Stop being a brokie. Be a jacked foreman and sit in the truck all day
Big guys are the foundations, walls, and structural members, the smaller guys are the carpet, drywall, and cabinets -- both have their place -- and some are more easily replaced than others.
@@radicalis8221 nobody needs a beta male, that’s why we have women
Here's a funny addendum. Even as a bigger guy (270lbs) i feel more relaxed and "safe" around my larger friends.
Psychologically, you know they are all capable should the need arise, so you don't have to "carry all the weight" to protect the group if something goes down .
buncha fatsos with heart disease.
Yep, like it or not, this is part of reality for guys (and women, just on a different level) Just part of survival and our culture. You can reason away all you want, it’s just the way it is.
Well said... Mind and Body, equally important!
This is GOLD 👌😂😂😂🙌❤️
this is Gold
I dont want to be big and stronger! I want to be strong and big
It is good to know comments from the haters is still being done.
All true.
Yet no one wants to look like you guys.
Yes they want to Lift like you but no one ever said I wished I looked like you guys.
This Is also factual and buried deep in DNA
Explain
I agree 100% big big bigger just for the sake of strong? I have a friend who weighs 75kg and is stronger than most of the guys. Who wants to be fat for the sake of strength? Not me
You may say that, but have a 220 lbs, no-neck gorilla get in ur face, it's fucking scary, I don't care if he has a belly or not, u wouldn't fuck with him.
Well mark is also an old man now. A lot of men want to look big and strong in a t shirt which requires not being sub 10% bodyfat and looking like a bodybuilder
Go look up a pic of a young mark rippetoe lol. Dude was fucking crazy huge
Not so black and white. A jacked fit dude, tidy waistline is one thing, a huge fat man with a 300k dead is another. A roided up beast is another. In these days of rampant obesity, diabetes etc being big is not impressive. The fit 160-200lb male will shine and not be branded as big dumbo. Different environments, different values. It’s nuanced.
Skinny guy detected
55kg to 65kg the bulk is on rip
Let’s see your workout instead of the talk.
😆
He’s got videos up with him demonstrating the lifts and there’s videos of him lifting heavy
Yes, but short guys will never have the opportunity to be in any regard considered big. A 220 lb 5 foot 7 little guy will just look like a cute little fella who is overcompensating. Meanwhile, a guy at the same weight at 6 foot 1 will not give that same impression.
Well you can either be scrawny looking at 5-7 or strong looking at 5-7.
5'7" is an okay height. 220 5'7" will be perceived as huge, because it is. It's only when you are really short like 5 feet or less that this applies.
I'm 5'7" and 200 lbs and people always think I'm bigger and taller than I am. More specifically when I was a freshman in college I was 135 lbs. I can tell you the difference between the way people react to you between 135 lbs and 200 in shape is very different....so no at 5'7" you are never gonna be a huge guy but you fill out your frame you'll always be better off than if you didn't. Just my two cents as someone who is that height and did gain 65 lbs over time by eating and lifting.
Advice for everyone: never get fixated on your look. There is more to life than being big or lifting heavy. ;)
This is a weird opinion. The US Marines of the Pacific Theater were wiry. But they made an impression on the Japanese. I'd put my money on a platoon of those Marines than a platoon of Starting Strength athletes who weigh over 300 lbs. gassed out on the beaches of Peleliu.
An army ranger named grunt proof actually was the one who brought starting strength to my attention, if you train like a soldier and also incorporate the starting strength program I believe you will be a unit, train the starting strength program 3 times a week, and in between those rest days you run and you ruck and you do battle drills, you absolutely will get combat ready.
Moral of the story is that money trumps all
that is dumb af and does not turn women on
“and after we ask…..a jew.” uhhh lol wtf
lol yea I was confused too
Sorry but I’m 5’11 170 and fit, and would very much disagree that a “big strong guy” looks better lol. Most “big strong guy” are perceived as fat
Nah man. You’re just skinny and that’s okay
Buddy I agree strong, BIG & FAT ain't good to look at don't give a CRAP how much you lift, if you can't run, lift, jump and move well you are F@#ked. Strong and looking jacked looks much better by far
@ciswhitemalewithextraprivi7898 what does that even matter? I never said I was even training specifically for strength. I train hard and progressively overload sure but am I a strength athlete no. My point was that bigger isn’t ALWAYS better. If you think anyone gives a shit what’s on the bar at the gym then your sadly mistaking. I’d rather be fit, somewhat strong, and look good rather then be a fat ass who thinks numbers on the bar impresses anyone
@ciswhitemalewithextraprivi7898 whose that comment too
Following Rip logic the Power Clean is not necessary, nor is it a "normal human movement pattern," but he still holds it to be necessary, albeit with the caveat that one can get too old to perform it safely, which clearly ought to inform Rip, using his own logic, why it is not a necessary movement. The squat, deadlift, bench, press, and row are normal human movement patterns that span all ages -- the power clean does not, and I'd say it takes more than it gives in any program regardless of age; that block of time would be better spent with a row or possibly even better, a straight-leg deadlift. "Explosive" movements are not for strength training, nor should they be performed with conventional weights. The application of explosiveness should be a display of one's strength, etc, under one's own body-weight in the performance of athletics, not in a training gym. Separating the two modes of performance is more practical. Quit wasting people's time and money on the bullshit power clean.
A woman with Double D's should not be doing power cleans, nor is the bench press a proper movement for a female when it concerns pectoral, tricep, and anterior delt strength. Many people want to lump both sexes into the same training modes, where clearly there are movements better suited to one over the other, as nature intended. Imagine that! Male & Female have not just chemical and biological differences, but mechanical and physical ones that change the way they function in their everyday existence. This is also why "mixed" training sessions (male & female) are not just sub-optimal but hinder both sexes from reaching their potential. It's not money well spent to be in a mixed, instructor led training session for either.
Bigger is better
Fatter is worse…way worse
Mark speaks in absolutes way too much. Abs are also visually impressive and I can think of at least one culture that doesn't put being big and strong at the pinical physical speaking...South Korea.
Well being lean is absolutely 100x more attractive than being big, especially if you are in a healthy BMI range. It makes your face far more defined, a lot of women are also obsessed with veins.
Who the fuck cares what people in South Korea think tho? They're all ghey and twigs. They're fruity. Are you into that shit?
I’m 50 yrs old, 6’0” 220 lbs just started a month ago and gained 10 lbs. but I don’t feel it’s muscle. I look bigger, but also fatter. Eating around 2800-3000 calories. How can I dial in the calories better to build muscle but not “look” fat?
You can’t, it’s a myth and you’ve been brainwashed by steroid physiques in the media. If anything, try the carnivore diet and eat tons still
@@user-uv9ji8ml2y I’m 50 yrs old and just started so my lifts aren’t really heavy yet. Maybe that’s why, not sure. I cut down to 2500-2800 and the weight gain stopped. I’ll make smaller increments up or down depending on how it goes from here. If I get to 300 lbs I’ll be a fat slob.
I did the same thing, got strong and fat. No one was impressed. Just eat normally and train to failure. You’ll get strong AND look strong. Big arms on a fat guy is as impressive as abs on a skinny guy. Starting Strength is an amazing program except for the advice on calorie intake.
