    I had the pleasure of lifting at Barbell Brigade last week. To walk in and get a warm greeting and the excitement that the staff have for life. Not to mention once you actually get in there and feel not only the intensity of the lifters, but the music and the eye contact of everyone is one of a kind. I never got mean mugged, I never was looked at up and down. There was someone going for a PR, and the entire gym stop to motivate. It was inspiring and motivating beyond what I had imagined. I PRed each of the big three, I was spotted by people I have only met through the RUclips universe, and saw the rest of the Barbell Familia in action. The fact that this was a normal day in the gym for the members was amazing. I only one day hope to build a community that Barbell Brigade has become. Thank you.

    my gym dislikes me. one of the trainers rearranges the weights on the squat rack when i'm using it, mid set. and today i was told to dead-lift quieter. if they ask me again i will ask them to show me, they are all curlbros so i know they can't lift it.

    This is probably my favorite video that barbell brigade has ever posted. it just covers everything that got me to start following barbell brigade and everything that got me to fall in love with the sport of powerlifting. The community is amazing. Gyms/companies like BB have helped form the sense of family and helped grow that family. I moved from LA to florida in 2012, so I never got to actually be a full time barbell brigade member, but now I'm working on moving back to cali. one of the main reasons is to be a part of the barbell brigade community as it grows and as I progress in the sport. Thanks for posting this, Bart. Awesome stuff

    I acutally competed in my first powerlifting meet earlier this month (after about a year of incorporating powerlifting into my workouts). It was a great experience and totally agree about your comments on the community--very supportive and helpful. Everyone was super nice! Definitely look forward to competing in another one!

    • @aaronbarlow4376
      @aaronbarlow4376 Год назад

      How was it with warming up lifts and did you have time to get fully ready for your lifts? Did you get your own squat rack back stage to warm up on so you could have the bar at the right height or is everyone just using the same rack and taking turns? I want to compete eventually.

  • @CriscoJack
    @CriscoJack 8 лет назад

    Man I'd kill to have a gym like this open up near me, looks unreal. It's the music too that gets me. If you've seen videos about Barbell, you know they just BLAST that shit and it is the most heart pounding, adrenaline injecting sounds the world has to offer. Hoping Barbell influences other people to start gyms like this, the world needs it.

  • @mcVozmcDaca

    Damn! This video almost make me cry, I've been a fan since the first barbell brigade opened their doors. I've never had the chance to go to train there cause I live in another country but some day I'll definitely will visit that amazing place. Congrats for your amazing creation.

  • @740llopez

    Every gym that I've been to for the last 10 years of working out has been a horrible experience. I wish that there's a gym here in the NC that was welcoming like this gym. But watching these videos makes me so amped to get in the gym and reach new PR's every week. Just know that you have a forever fan.

I think it's super awesome what y'all are doin and continue to do. Also, I'd love a video on like different bar types and more powerlifting stuff explained for new people who have lifted for a little but aren't sure about more advanced or maybe basic stuff I missed. Thanks!

  • @SgtSustainability
    @SgtSustainability 8 лет назад

    This literally made me cry a little bit. I wish there was a gym even just a little bit like Barbell Brigade where I live. The situation here is actually so bad people still give me insane looks when they see me deadlifting 3 plates, because I'm pretty much the only one who deadlifts at all. Makes me want to move to the US just to join a gym like this.

Barbell Brigade, SuperTraining have both been inspirations. The sport is growing SO FAST. I dream of one day having my gym mirror this. Love it and the PL community. Check out the channel in the future to watch my journey.

I need to open my own gym or find one like that. One day I'll visit Barbell Brigade.

    Open gyms in the north east, I would easily drive more than half an hour for a gym like this. Right now, I'm going to a gym that's 20 minutes away and it's similar to barbell brigrade, minus the closeness as a gym. There's smaller cliques at this gym, but it still isn't bad. I'd still love a gym like BB here though.

    Thanks to the interweb people know how to squat. 10 years ago say one guy on the squat rack and he was doing barbell curls. wtf. Now squat rack is taken almost instantly because the interweb shows the benefits and how to properly squat.
