I'm surprised with some of the negative reviews. I was so impressed with the ruclips.net/user/postUgkxMwYg0MOXR4M-oGeyBsNSYe1aPOUoRH6D cage that I got the lat pulldown attachment that goes with it. It is equally outstanding. I don't have one complaint other than putting it together is a job. The instructions and packaging of the parts are very well designed and organized. Also, I stripped and damaged the pull down cable the first day, admitting it was my stupid fault, and they quickly replaced it at no charge. I'm 6'5, 280lbs and fit in the cage just fine. Glenn B
There are a few similar ones out there like this, most people end up making their own out of jammer arms. Benefit being you have all movement options jammers provide but also can move the storage pin around (or add more) where this one seems to be welded. Prob end up paying $70 more or so but worth it IMO if you’re going this route.
Johnny Candito! A living Legend! Man, just the name alone reels me in to want to watch your videos. I feel fully satisified now typing down this comment. Motivation at its finest.
@@J4ckCr0w id argue that loading at the hips (over your center of gravity) is more stable then a front/arm loaded landmine but if you have a weak hip then do whats best for you
@@PSYCHOSAXE Point being, you're not activating core stabilizers and you push with your legs instead your whole body. There is a reason this is not a regular exercise.
Pretty cool although I still feel like a loading pin and a weight belt is the best bang for your buck. You can re-use both of those with a lot of other exercises, the range of motion is perfect, and you can put a ton of weight.
Generally, when people start off their video with their pet in their hands, I turn it off - just a distraction. Wouldn't reccomend it....with that said, you are very well spoken and I appreciate the insight and comments. Thank you!
You should update the link in your description, they moved the site. Promo code still works though. Picked one up so I have some sort of heavy quad assistance option for the home gym.
@@pedrog5846 Just got mine today. I'd definitely recommend it, the fit and finish is on par with the big name companies. Really impressed with such a small operation.
Dropping a thumbs up for the informative video and for helping to support a small business making practical gym equipment. Also for the the t-shirt, but mostly for the other stuff. Lol
Could you make a video about any squat/deadlift changes you made after coming back from injury? Like if you added any new cues to squatting, or reinforced old ones, just focused more on bracing, etc.
I bought one of those vertical jump courses sold in the back of magazines back in the late 1990s and I remember the guy who produced it being a big proponent of belt squats in his regimen. Now that I think about it, I haven't even thought about belt squats since then.
@Animenian Uzumaki yeah i know that for a long lever it wont matter, I'm just curious how the length on the actual product feels, cause when you load it with heavy weight and it all goes forward into the kneecaps that wouldnt be cool (Btw. I dig you name! #naruto)
Hey Jonnie, are you still providing form checks? I'm havnig an issue where my back is rounding when im fatigued and want to pay for you to check it out? THanks
I'd love to have a home gym setup like candito has, i go to a commerical-ish type gym so i get super annoyed by alot of people who take up squat racks.
Hey Johnny, can you make a video on how to program when working a 9-5 labor intense job? I am following your strength program with a hyper caloric diet, but it seems I cannot follow it to the tee because fatigue from work gets in the way.
What do you mean by not being able to follow it to the tee? Do you have an average % that your lifts are down as a result of your work? If so just back down the program’s percentages by that much
Sleep as much as you can on the weekends helps.i work 40 plus 8-16 hours o.t. a week and struggle with fatigue. I did an upper lower split with Wednesdays,Saturdays and sundays off. I hit fatigue during the second half of work shifts. So i backed down the volume and workout to half (2 days). Slept as much as i can now ready to hit that 4 day program next week.
@@davidthomas9960 I was having to skip the optional exercises and just focus on the main movements. Also, I am able to hit the reps and sets at the given weight, but by the end of those sets, I am wiped out.
@@1vancruz i wouldn’t swear skipping the optionally tbh. In my honest opinion, pull your maxes back about 6% (as close as you can get by rounding) and you can make just as good progress.
So I have recently worked up to 7 plates for a set of 20. Anyone know how to add bands to make this more difficult? Not sure where to use them for this.
Thanks for the vid, what does rp7 mean..? And can you please tell me if you know where to buy a belt to do this for big guys , my waist is 54 , I'm trying to get back in shape , any info would be appreciated . Thanks again you rock man
Is it just me or does the belt squat link not actually have any pictures of the items? I wanna send the link to my gym, but its no good if they cant see the thing. This is just as good for commercia gyms as it is for home. It's WAY cheaper than a belt squat machine.
Did you ever experiment with flywheel training? Proper Flywheel training is very likely the best squat/deadlift training. I would go as far and claim it's better than the actual lits in terms of hypertrophy and general strength gains!
Lookin forward to the 7 week program brah. Still coming in 2020?
Yes.
CanditoTrainingHQ
What is the 7 week program? A full powerlifting program? Or just squat
@@CanditoTrainingHQ Bless you lord Candito
@@CanditoTrainingHQ you sure?
I'm shocked Jonny has a Mom. I always assumed he hatched from a 100 kg dumbell.
Almost funny
10km poke egg
he looks like an owl
😂
The relief i felt when your dog showed signs of life at 3:10 😂😂😂
Thank you so much for the feature, Jonnie! You are the man!
"Pretty surreal being the old guy" I feel that
Huge props to Mike at Coahulla Iron for donating the prize, congrats again Jonnie on the win. Great to see Mama Candito out there getting after it.

Giving your parents the gift of strength is the greatest thing. I am on the same path. 71 y.o father pulls 235x5 on dead today!
Thanks for the shoutout Johnny! You need to come over and try the SquatMax-MD. You would be floored if you like that lever arm version.
Hey coop do you have a video on that?

Landmine-dip belt-barbell
Only really works for taller guys tho

Been using it for weeks love it no spine injuries really feel it on my quads
what was happening to that glass of water at the beginning Jonnie
Anybody else laugh outloud at his t-shirt in the clip at 2:15 I'm dying over here!!! Hahahaha
Shirt didn't age too well, did it?
Candito 2 videos ago: y'all thought I was gonna get political.
Candito in this video: 2:14
lol
hes a huge trump supporter
@@dessertstorm7476 Interesting. I always thought Jonnie was a raging leftist.
@@dessertstorm7476 For real? :-/
@@haroldbauer8724 honestly I dunno, he's probably a libertarian.
@@dessertstorm7476 Still pretty bad. Libertarians are pro open borders, unlimited power of corporations etc.
Just got mine today and I'm excited to give it a try when I move into my new house.
Man you have the quads i always dreamnt of having...
All right, I ordered one.
Holy shit, this is exactly what I’ve been waiting for!
As if landmine squat never existed.
Who didn’t know about a landmine? I just wanted a belt squat but didn’t wanna shove out thousands for it or make my own and risk it breaking
@@PSYCHOSAXE And now your can break your hips faster?

Setting up the same thing with my lever arms. Also love the moon night light got the same one a few years ago.
Him cutting off the young guy🤣
Great video!

Bought this immediately, I've spent the last year looking for a belt squat option that isn't over a grand and doesn't have a garbage ROM.
How’s it working out so far? How long for it to arrive?
@@pedrog5846 Just got mine today. I'd definitely recommend it, the fit and finish is on par with the big name companies. Really impressed with such a small operation.
Just wanted to say thank you for this video just ordered one and used Your discount code thank you very much
The link for the coahulla iron belt squat doesn't seem to be working. Has it been discontinued? I can't seem to find it anywhere online.

Could you make a video about any squat/deadlift changes you made after coming back from injury? Like if you added any new cues to squatting, or reinforced old ones, just focused more on bracing, etc.
My gym has a piece of equipment call the Pit Shark, there are two of them in the facility. They have been there for a few years.
Good looking out Jonnie!!! Always wanted to find something like this for my home gym setup :)
T shirt game >>
Damn his Mom hits ATG! Get it!
That thing is sick
Nice attachment but what's the advantage if any over the landmine squat attachments?
What relaxers is your dog on? I’d like to try
That is a very good design
Thanks for this awesome video. I would like to see what other exercises can be performed with this equipment.
Thats the hardest working mom in the gym iv ever seen
You can use it as a Stand up calf also
Where are you bro? I guess you are recovering from the injury. Best wishes from here. I hope you are healed and training very soon.
Hopefully, he's doing some mental recovery after voting for trump.
thanks for the video

It always looks like it pulls you forward putting all the weight onto your toes. Could you comment on that?
@Animenian Uzumaki yeah i know that for a long lever it wont matter, I'm just curious how the length on the actual product feels, cause when you load it with heavy weight and it all goes forward into the kneecaps that wouldnt be cool

@@ArminEghdamiDrums “into the kneecaps” what does this mean?
Looks like you already maxed it out!
The unintentional mouth sounds from this video are making me wonder when we're getting a Candito/lifting ASMR.
Could someone drill a couple holds in a heavy duty power tower (pull-up/dip station) to attach one of these?
Do they still make this? Link is broken.
ordering one tomorrow

Coop from garage gym reviews checking in... 🤔
Haha, he will 4 sure
Damn! I wish we had that my gym!
This definitely looks like the best belt squat for the money. But the Rogue Monster Rhino is the best and most versatile.
man in watching this when i’m drunk as what the hell is going on johnnie i’m so confused
That belt squat is pretty cool, but my like is because of doggo
Also - the scenery looks like Michigan?!
Caterpillars be belt squatting
Thanks for the information been looking for a good belt squat apparatus . Do you know when they will be taking order again?
Sornex and another company I forgot what it’s called has a landmine attachment
just wondering, what are the advantages of programming belt squat
Allows a lot of volume without loading your spine
Link doesn't work, are they still making this attachment?
What is the moment of inertia of the attachment point?
If you put X weight on the pin, what average resistance does that translate to at the belt?
So I have recently worked up to 7 plates for a set of 20. Anyone know how to add bands to make this more difficult? Not sure where to use them for this.
Do you think this would work on rogue s4 squat stands. I know meant for rack but..
Dammit - your eyes are popping out of your eye socket brother! Good video without the poodle. LOL !!!
If you want to emulate this with just a barbell I made a video on it. You can start the movement from the top like a real belt squat.
Thanks for the vid, what does rp7 mean..? And can you please tell me if you know where to buy a belt to do this for big guys , my waist is 54 , I'm trying to get back in shape , any info would be appreciated . Thanks again you rock man

I've been wanting to make my own. So manu options.
How necessary was it to stand on the plates? Too short?
I know I'm 5 years late but....the programs?? I was ready to buy one tn
How much power will I gain if I steal "the lamp"?
When you don’t realize your dog is dead and your making a bet squat video 03:20
What was that about 50kg plates? Reduces whip?
Is the code time sensitive, or will it still be good if I have to wait two weeks?
Can you show us how to dunk?
It's been just a few months later and it looks like the store migrated over to Shopify.
Can someone please tell me where candito bought his squat rack from?
Does this ship to Sweden ?
Boxes and and a weightbelt acomplish pretty much the same thing
We want merch!
Can someone please tell me what a good amount of weight on this is!? Like is it comparable to back squat numbers
yo that link doesn't work anymore. Do you know the name of the new site?
Why do I lean really far forward when doing this?
Currently running your 6 week program, any tips for how long to wait between the final session on week 5 until you test your maxes in week 6 ?
Would like handles for beginners .👍
Johnny, is it a good standard for an intermediate/ advanced lifter to bench 3 times a week, squat 3 times a week and deadlift 2 times a week?
Fantastic Johnny, now it's definitely time to put the t-shirt on sale too...
The Biden t-shirt 😀
Maybe I'm missing something, but what is the sizing for? The belt itself?
5/8" pin or 1" pin for the rack mount.
@@HDHeroCam ohhhh, thanks. Should have been more obvious - but it was not clicking

I take it they don't sell it anymore?? I can't find it and your link no longer works
You bet coop is gonna review it
This would be pretty easy to diy in metal shop.
How do you get out of it if you're still under load at the bottom?
Sit down and release the belt, or reach forward and start unloading plates🤣
