its amazing how fast you can rebound if you have years of strength training under your belt. People rarely believe me when I tell them I went from benching 185 to 355 in 5 months after i went on a heroin and cocaine bender and missed 7 months in the gym and barely ate anything but candy and beer. So even if you become disillusioned if you feel you aren't making gains or plateauing there are long term benefits that are not often realized until years after.
He is like the average person that goes the gym, he gets there by bike, no fancy clothes or material, trains alone, commercial gyms, but not only he trains the most difficult strenght sport but he does it at an olympic level
@@DanielRowlands1 True lol. Outside of a few people that know each other in the gym everyone else is pretty quiet and in tune with their workouts. I've been at my gym for almost a year and I'm gonna be honest there's not 1 person I talk to regularly there.
The disbelief when Clarence just casually visits Sheffield and trains in the same gym as you! Going to have to track down that bar and see if it's got any leftover power!
I really enjoy this series, it's a nice break from the hyper-aggressive WE GO JIM type lifting videos that seem to be everywhere now lol. Technique is looking good
Actually saw this from the top balcony and wondered who the f**k I was watching..... Obviously found out and here I am.... If you'd shown your next attempt at C&J you probably see me in the mirror 🤣 Amazing to see in real life, most impressive thing I've witnessed in 25+ years of training.
@@ahwerdfw But that's nonsense. Being 100kg is not near heavy enough to cause joint problems unless you are about 5'4. I'm only 21 and 98kg and there's plenty of room for growth. I still feel fast, powerful and light on foot. Sore joints at such a weight will be caused by unrelated issues. (unless you are obese)
Always love how honest Clarence is about his training, no ego, no BS, no glorification. If his struggling he will tell us and if his having a good time he will tell us, love that
Liking the slay the spire music when advertising your programmes :). Great to see you getting strong again so fast. I enjoy listening to your methodical approach to training.
9 sessions a week, recommends 6, while I'm almost 40 years old now, feeling like 25 in my mind but body struggling to recover from 3 sessions. Being a dad of small children is stressful ^^. Great video Clarence! Still going for a PR when they sleep through the night. Fittest @ 40 maybe?
Nice video Clarence, love to see you training again and love the narrated vlog format of the videos. If I recall rightly Matt used to live in and work in Bath? I seem to remember his face, believe I met him there some years ago. Keep it up and look forward to the next one!
You would think clernece would be fumbling, but no, the man’s videos are getting more views than expected. I’m here for it because I kind of like regular content from him and was great to see that he is healthy
excellent training vlog, this just popped up in my feed and it's nice to watch someone training hard whilst remaining calm, and $1 for patreon for extra content, I'm in.
@@samuelabbottchannel I’m pretty sure he said it directly in his last vlog. He only bulks to 100kg+ when he’s using. Not to take away from how much of a freak and how hard he works but it’s just obvious. You don’t get to 90% strength in 5 weeks without taking
@@nicholastartaglia4276 I watched his last vid fairy recently and I don’t think he said anything about hopping back on gear so I just wanted to get the consensus by asking. But yeah I agree. Not only has he recovered 90% strength in 5 weeks but he’s also put on a lot of muscle since his last video. For me, as someone who’s been lifting for over half a decade and is currently bulking, that amount of clean weight gain does not seem possible for a natty.

Which protein do you usually get, Clarence?
Clarence, if you ever find the opportunity to jump on a watt bike and full send please upload it! would love to know what your max watts are
❤❤❤❤❤
Clarence casually coming back after 2 months is pure bliss
science mr . white
Foreal
Weightlifting house should hire Clarence to commentate
he bounced back frighteningly quick
@@scottessery100 Better: he can do a voiceover commentating on the europeans or any lifts like other channels do
I love the fact that he posted a video about how he struggles with 160 kg squat 1 month ago and now he's casually clean and jerking 200 kg

Ridiculous

@@Brett733 so you’re saying that I could put 170lbs on my bench if I take 7 months off the gym and start taking cocaine and heroin? 🤔
@@Robdutton91 sounds like a plan to me
There is just something very calming about the man, and how he goes about his training.
his voice is literally asmr
He is like the average person that goes the gym, he gets there by bike, no fancy clothes or material, trains alone, commercial gyms, but not only he trains the most difficult strenght sport but he does it at an olympic level
@@joaqermeister6904 ahahaha. so f%$$$$ true bro
For sure, I would love him to come to my local gym and put up some great numbers on Olympic lifts. Would blow people's minds 😆
>becomes Olympic athlete for fun
>Goes about with his day
>refuses to elaborate further
*Leaves*
Everybody else: "Babe, wake up, Clarence posted!"
Me: Hoping my wife doesn't wake up and interrupt my alone time with Clarence
😂
Me: no wife, just the smell of cocoa butter on one hand
I love when you do world class lifts and nobody looks.
you look like joaquin phoenix in you were never really here
just get a hammer and you've got a cool Halloween costume lol
@@TheRabidDolphin99 Guess that explains why my ex gf thought he was really hot lol.
In commercial gyms in the UK no-one looks at or talks to each other
@@DanielRowlands1 True lol. Outside of a few people that know each other in the gym everyone else is pretty quiet and in tune with their workouts. I've been at my gym for almost a year and I'm gonna be honest there's not 1 person I talk to regularly there.
i'm watching his form frame by frame, and as far as I know it's very close to perfection, even with 200kgs..

What gym was it? One of the firehouse ones?
@@csalis it's the JD south gym
clarence is the only pre-workout i need
I mean I get what ur sayin but he's so calm and organized in his videos, I can sleep right after one
I really enjoy this series, it's a nice break from the hyper-aggressive WE GO JIM type lifting videos that seem to be everywhere now lol. Technique is looking good
This is very soothing to watch. Like Asmr
Very! This and stuff like Tren twins are polar opposites. Both fun in their own right but sometimes like a good zen workout vibe.
Right? Very opposite of the Tren Twins
Babe(she doesn’t exist) wake up!! Clarence posted
*Bro wake up
@@Blobbyo25 bro go to sleep
Kept it kinda light with 180kg front squats for a lot of sets... after maxing 200 hundy on C&J. What a weapon!
"I kept it light 180 kilos" GOAT 🤣🐐Great work as always Clarence, truly an inspiration to all of us!
you didnt look stupid from your bike footage you straight look chaded out you look great!
I like your new start position on the snatches 💪
Hey Clarence, it’s brilliant to see you cycling again🙌🙌🙌
Your bike route to the gym is pretty cool too🙄🙄
The second gym looks nicer
It seems as though he has been cycling quite a bit recently!
Actually saw this from the top balcony and wondered who the f**k I was watching..... Obviously found out and here I am....
If you'd shown your next attempt at C&J you probably see me in the mirror 🤣
Amazing to see in real life, most impressive thing I've witnessed in 25+ years of training.
looking healthier and still strong as hell my dude keep it up ^^
There is nothing unhealthy about being 100kg though😂

absolutely, consistently inspiring; and with this calm, soothing demeanour and attitude, love watching these after a session
Despite being this high level, Clarence is still very happy with small improvements 🙌🏿
+20kg on his clean and jerk, small improvement
Always love how honest Clarence is about his training, no ego, no BS, no glorification. If his struggling he will tell us and if his having a good time he will tell us, love that
That escalated quickly 😮
I love this, the absolute unit making a comeback
Such a pleasure to get to watch you train in person. Always enjoy seeing my pal’s reactions to you putting crazy numbers above your head!
I'm so jealous
I'm so happy for you... Hitting good numbers when trying to come back from a hiatus is so motivating...
Why he paused, injury?
Yesterday I did front squats 40kg 3 x 8. I hadn’t done them in years and was feeling pretty good, until I saw this 😂😂
You should still feel good about it, a lot of people have trouble doing that with there own bodyweight.
Liking the slay the spire music when advertising your programmes :). Great to see you getting strong again so fast. I enjoy listening to your methodical approach to training.
It’s amazing to see how fast he can progress back up to these heavier weights. I’m looking forward to his next squat video!
Woohoo Clarence returns saga. Excited for this journey!
5:20 I’m happy to see you’re still cycling

Missed this natty cycler, i'm enjoying the vlogs alot!
I live in Sheffield and was blown away that you’d just randomly be visiting in this video!
You should make a guide how to start doing tricks and flips as well Clarence !!keep making videos Buddy, gj !!
Would love to read/ see that
these videos are amazing, I like this new Clarence arc
"...kept it kinda light, this is only 180kg...." - i wish i could say that lol! really great to have you back Clarence!
Absolutely insane strength. Incredible
The weight itself is always impressive, but I am always blown away by the fact you do it 100% raw.
I was just watching 3 year old Clarence videos to get a good gym motivation. Then this popped up. Best timeline
I like this relaxed vlog + lifting format.
The comeback is insane
great to see you posting again, Clarence.
Imagine going to the same gym, hitting a 200kg deadlift PR and then Clarence walks in and sends it to the moon.
Love love love love this. I'll definitely buy your program when i have some money.
Welcome back brother, can't wait to see you armwrestling!
Great video Clarence, glad to have you back!
Bro's finally starting to work with my tricep extension
Clarence is one of my favorite channels
Loving these vlogs!
Love this, glad to see another video!
Definitely don’t how to express my happiness when Clarence drops a videos!
I'm doin your powerlifting program right now - feelin good, glad to see you throwin weight around again Mr. Wennedy.
You would think clernece would be fumbling, but no, the man’s videos are getting more views than expected. I’m here for it because I kind of like regular content from him and was great to see that he is healthy
“Cycle” to the gym 😂 love it 😉 so glad you’re back in the gym mate. Loving the vids🙏
Good work Clarence, glad to see you back in the flow of things.
Playing around with weight heavier than you and you watch anime too. What an inspiration👏🏼🙌🏼
The cycling part was definitely a coded message
Clarence going from 100kg to 87kg is like when God took human form to live on earth for 33 years.
Who?
Clarence in his 'The Son' era
I’m trying to hit 130 this year at 98. Love watching this inspiration.
130 at 98 years is really impressive tbh

In between sets I watch Clarence and it pushes me to keep training
The man's back!
Great vlog Clarence! Thanks for providing us with a good content
well this is the reason why i transition from bodybuilding workouts to weightlifting. 🏋️♂️
babe wake up clarence just dropped a video
Its like christmas when there is a new video of Clarence on my RUclips Homepage

I'm a simple dude. I see Clarence's notification, I put the video on TV LOUD AF
Great to see you, Clarence! Looks like a cool city to live in!
Clarence - love u man: so real, so honest, so grounded … cheers brother!
"struggeling to squat 160" to 200kg Clean and Jerk, what at specimen. Good work Clarence
2:36 why tf is the dude in the back checking himself out for like a solid 40 seconds 💀lmfao
These Vlogs with commentary are great.
Fucking crazy you go to nott’s the gym, it’s absolutely dire in the evenings
The almighty is back!!
I see a Clarence video: I push thumbs up!
Clarence is really back. All is right in the world.
Love these videos, peaceful.
As I fellow everyday biker I need more biking vids! Lols love the content brother!
I'm always a bit confused about the lack of mirers. I'd be pulling up a chair
Clarence hiatus with training is legit his metal gear solid v coma. He’s in his venom snake arc 😂
This man cures all of my problems
great video, thx, greetings from Germany
Great videos Clarence, crazy good progress over the past period!
Love watching your videos, I can learn so much from your technique. Also mob psycho is an awesome show.
I love the slay the spire shop music in the back
