Will we have an anime endurance video where we discuss strategies to have unlimited stamina, to run a marathon sprinting at the speed of light, to fight nonstop for months, Crush Mountains day and night, we could analyze different anime that give different explanations to this fenomena(Kimetsu no Yaiba(Wim Hoff Method, breathing Techniques), Fire Force(Hysterical Strength), DBZ(Hyper Gravity training), Boku no Hero(Loaded Carroes and functional training), Berserk and Black Clover(Heavy High repetition Sword swinging or excercises)
Training is like a recipe for a cake, there are different recipes for different cakes, for example a Chocolate(sprinting) cake, has many ingredients, some in great quantities, like the flour, eggs, and milk, these are your sprinting sessions the base of your training or your cake, but you also have the small quantities ingredients, like the salt, the baking powder, vanilla etc..., these could be your functional training excercises like the sled push or pull, weighted running, etc... but cakes also have a filling, and frosting, those could be your strength training, work capacity, bodybuilding centric work, aerobic fitness etc...Another thing to consider is that some, if not most of the times you do the filling and frosting separate from your base, you don’t Mix them in the same bowl simoultanously, indicating that it could be like saying that you must separate your sprint sessions from your strength sessions or you might have a strength block and then go to a speed block. And you could also get into how each competition is a customer with a certain taste(demands) if you know their taste(demands) you might realize that even though his favorite cake is chocolate(sprinting competion) you might know that the customer will most likely like much more an Oreo cheesecake or a White Chocolate cake. There are many different recipes, we should know which one is best for what we want and never use the same one, it will grow old, always try to improve your recipe, try new ones, combine them with your old recipe. “Use no way as way.Use no limitation as limitation” Bruce Lee
I wonder if there is a recipe for a "plus protein" chocolate cake; like protein powder in the icing or even the breading? If not, someone needs to make it and sell it. Million dollar idea there.
Excellent! Expesially the last part is something I have learned during several years in training in the wilderness. Every step, climb, lift, throw, evade is different. A rythm is temporary made, but just as quick broken again. Almost like quantuum physics, with no actuall ridig 'rules'.
Sprinting/running up hills and mountains is one of my favorite things to do. But I'm still amateur. How about a video detailing technique, posture, rest periods, etc?
Here's one interesting video: ruclips.net/video/u5_9jD6tIB4/видео.html ^By the way, this channel (JP Gloria) is a FANTASTIC resource for all things running form. Really gets into the nitty gritty. How long do you go for? Are you both doing hill sprints and long (30, 60 min or more) mountain trail runs? For mountain running, small steps as you ascend steep grades will help you be efficient. For hill sprints, essentially all the cues you would give a sprinter to improve their form are valid for these. Watch top-tier sprinters run - there's a lot of arm pumping for propulsion, and a forefoot stride will help you be quick. Generally when you're running, think about all the places you are unnecessarily losing energy - really, any motion that isn't forward-and-backward. If there's any side-to-side motion, that's energy lost (although mild twisting is of course a natural component of running form). Also, an upright torso is best - just make sure when doing hill sprints there is full extension from your foot to your head, sort of a straight line, at one point in the stride. This doesn't mean don't lean forward - you'll have to do so when you run uphill especially, and many elite runners have a constant forward lean, but their forward lean is of their whole body, not just their torso. (I had a bad forward lean of just my torso and it led to many hip flexor and knee injuries.) Sorry, this isn't at all coherent, just kinda dumping information lol. Hopefully we get a video :D !
The combination of weight training and grappling/BJJ is getting more and more popular for a good reason (many... good reasons actually). Weight training has its obvious benefits, and grappling puts in the unpredictability, where you have to generate force in all kinds of different ways against different opponents, in different positions etc.
You and Jeff Nippard are the best best content developers out there right now. I lean towards your style more for sure. Thank you for such great instruction. I’m gonna grab your ebook now.
Perhaps there is a thing as motor IQ: the ability to successfully learn new movements and transfer their similarities to other similar movements rather than confuse them.
Mate, I would love it if you could do a video on MMA/Street fighting. Different body types, fighting styles, weight cutting pros and cons in fighting MMA vs street, weight classes, difference between fighting on the street and in the ring and perhaps explaining a little bit about how my brother DC, is able to fight and be so competitive in weight divisions, where he is clearly giving up a lot of advantages. Please explain that cardio, the fact he carries that amount of fat while having cardio for days is perplexing!! Love your videos!! Keep it up! CHEERS!
1:56 This is how my training has been going and I came to this video to figure out if it's good for me or not. You always amaze! Your knowledge continues to flow over your own cup man. Thanks so much for this.
Thanks dude! Thanks to this video I was inspired to make a different style of training for myself. That I would call maniac training. It's basically that mixed style of training, but with more focus on that particular style of training. Or training like a maniac. Later on when I get use to moving like that, and add it to a different workout routine. I will call it a maniac rep. Idk there is probably already a name for that style of training, but I think maniac sounds a lot cooler.
One of the first things I learned when training with my dog is to not isolate a specific training movement. For example "sit" will be easy to teach, you need it all the time and it will work most of the time, however any kind of trick (roll over, stand up) will be trained at home or in the garden, a known location. Your dog won't be able to do this trick at a friends house, he is not wired to do this movement in this environment. So you have to eliminate the variable environment and teach those things everywhere. Same goes with flashcards you learn for an exam. Shuffle them, go for a walk with them or throw in some cards that are completely unrelated. I think the same principle works for training. When you always do the same movement in a specific order you just get wired to do does things in a specific way. Even changing the bar you are training with can have huge effects, not only because of a slight different muscle constilation used but the fact that your brain hasnt isolated a body movement from an environment (i mean pullups are very general we do them since we are kids, but I think you understand what I mean)
I think it's somewhere in between ultra specificity and compleat general strength. For example if you've ever seen people who skip leg day you'll see that upper body strength doesn't transfer to lower body strength. That being said I'm doing the lv0 routine in the super functional training program, I started needing to do easier variants of each exercise to get all of that volume in. Now I've gotten to where I can do the routine as prescribed in about 20m still a long way off from 6m but compared to where I was I've made good progress. The point is, I've recently gotten access to a hotel gym and pool so i decided to test skills I haven't trained. First I broke my deadlift record doing 200 for reps (the most weight the machine had) I was able to do a 50lbs dumbbell turkish get up (my previous record was only 25) I was able to do 200lbs cable punches and 200lbs single sided rows. Then after not swimming in about a year I was able to swim about 3,000 feet. I've also noticed I'm faster, can run for longer, and my punches and kicks have way more power. So that's why I believe there's some crossover between movement patterns as long as muscles involved are still trained
I see what you mean by cross training. Switching from lifting weights to just pure bodyweight has skyrocketed my physique, stamina & strength. I hardly lift weights now but I still lift weights here & there to shock my muscles.
The only way to learn to play is to train to play. You only get better at something by doing that thing in question, therefore if you want to get better at a sport, play and train in that sport.. if you want to get better at lifting weights, lift weights. You are what you train
You just clerified my mind ! Last week I was late to catch a train so I had to sprint. Since I went to university I wore boots and constraining clothes. It was a 1km sprint, so it's still an explosive run and somewhat endurence. But I was exhausted ! More than ever. I have been concentrating in long steady runs and strenght training but that little sprint of 2 -4min even got my legs sore the next day. Your video reminded me that I'm training in a bubble and need to experiment with more exercices in order to be a more complete athlete. If you hadn't posted this video, this would just fly over my head. Thanks for intriguing me every time :)
Just got a tire for sledge training! You can also make it in to a cool industrial looking table, cut and sand a piece of plywood to go in the center, which will sit on the inner rim and when ever your not using the tire for training, you've got a cool table!
You’re an absolute guru of movement. It would be helpful to see a rehab video, how to come back stronger from injury. I recently had acl surgery and want to make an insane comeback 🦾
I really enjoy the use of Jackie Chan. IMO, he and Bruce Lee were far ahead of their time, just in divergent ways. Throughout his Golden Harvest Productions films, we saw him training is such a mixed up variety, for seemingly everything. Ergo, it makes perfect sense to continue to use clips from these to further visualize the points being made. Now that I have been learning how to use Adobe Illustrator for UI and web design, as well as graphic design, I am really vibing with the typography you have started using. I also think the 3D effect you've managed to make your signature is inspiring. I like the idea of somehow using this but coupled with the similar typography. I am assuming, without taking the opportunity to research, you have created you own here. Thanks for another amazing video and I look forward to another book and next videos. Stay safe, stay healthy, and have a healthy evening.
I think you make interesting and potentially strong points, but I feel like the problem with this kind of training is that it is very difficult to track progress. Performing a select few compound lifts week in and out is easy to track because of weight/rep increases. I don't even know how I'd go about consistently striving for progress with so many variations.
If you enjoy working out with a lot of variety, It is not a problem. Simple fix: Go harder than last time. Or train hard until you fatigue. No need to track, as long as your training is of good quality, then I’m sure it’s fine.
I 100% agree with this training. Be broad and creative with your training. I’m designing a program for myself to be an optimal warrior athlete that combines strength/power/endurance/mobility. But I still have plenty to learn so I appreciate the channel and your amazing content. Seems I’m looking to be a superfunctional warrior athlete.
something about you lecturing paired with videos of you looking super strong seems to boost the integrity of whatever you're talking about in all of your videos by like 1000%
I think specificity can easily be misapplied if people don't know the difference between training movement directly vs training underlying systems. If you train for speed only by doing very fast movements with light weight, your progress will be limited. Instead, it is better to first train underlying systems, strength->power->, and then speed. In that way, you will end up faster. I don't think obsessing over joint angles when training the underlying systems is beneficial. When training strength in the beginning you should focus on the exercises that can most effectively and safely increase your strength. Most athletes do squats and other compound lifts when strength training for a reason.
The conclusion that learning generalized movement patterns make the athlete more robust is similar to the consensus of the aim training community for videogames. We generally train with varying sensitivities that help us focus on different aspects of aim. For example smoother control can be developed using a higher sensitivity whereas speed can be developed using a lower sensitivity since you'll be required to faster and farther to have similar performance. Some of us even go so far as to use Whisperrr's sensitivity randomizer which seems to improve reactivity and overall performance over time. Though there hasn't been enough consistent data to isolate this as the leading variable since most of us experiment with multiple routines so we're changing more than one variable at a time. This may be something that you could look into and extract some information from that might apply to other aspects of training. Constant adaptability would seem to be useful for every facet of fitness and brain training.
I’d love to look into this further! Can I pick your brain? Are you in the Bioneer FB group by any chance? That training sounds epic and I’ve been planning on doing a video on gaming soon...
@@TheBioneer I'm not in the FB group, I was under the impression it was meant for Patreon supporters which isn't financially an option for me at the moment. However if you're still interested in diving into aim training or other areas of game training I have been collecting and studying all available resources on the subject and would be able to help you get started. The very best resources to start with are the Aimer7 guides and the guides from Voltaic (formerly Sparky) as they have a lot of beginner friendly material. Though these are by no means exhaustive and I've been experimenting with a variety of methods, generally getting in the 90th percentile and up on most aim tasks.
Hey Adam, have you ever considered doing a day in the life video. How you train on any given day, what you eat, basically how you are implementing the topics you cover on your channel?
Indian clubs is something you should start experimenting with. Ive started doing some very random movement patterns with 5lb pair and im blown away by the results.
Build a strong robust base then add specific skills. Practice a lot. Then learn to combine those skills as needed and more importantly as you wish. More Practice. Making your mind and body perform how you feel it needs to, as second nature. Works for me. Apply this to any form of study. To Acquire skill. Your Kung fu is strong! Great video massive amount of thought in a small time frame. Not sure how you manage that.
Just pre-ordered my copy. It should arrive January 19th. Having just started Calisthenics a few weeks ago I've already had notable increases in core and grip strength. I want to see how much more I can improve before the book arrives.
"Flipping a giant tire is not a real world activity..you know what is a real world activity? Going to the gym and lifting some weights!" - Dom Mazzetti aka The Brofessor aka Your mom's ex boyfriend
Great video! You should consider making a video on doing multiple workouts while fasted. I've been wanting to lift weights, run and do yoga all in one day while fasted but haven't been able to properly time what time to do each
Rippitoe on explosiveness is misguided for sure. I mean just try it, I've increased all my jumps and running speeds simply by doing heavy weighted jumps. I honestly believe we can train explosiveness.
How much do you squat? If it's less than 200kg/440lbs, you will increase all your jumps/sprints by increasing your squat. If you then add specific jump training to the strength training, you will have the best way to get better. The real reason why people don't like strength training is that it's hard and the adaptations come slow.
i don't think Mr. Rippetoe is misguided, he included the power snatch and power cleans (you also jump on those exercises) on the Novice linear progression program which is an exercises that is scalable for any level of athletes. you can increase explosiveness but not as much as increasing your strength levels. Intermediate athletes can now go to programming that is specific to the energy system required for the sport of an athlete since after the novice level most athletes have a good foundation of strength,This requires thinking and not buying templates or so called programs (unless you are intellectually lazy) that is why Mark Rippetoe wrote the Starting strength and Practical Programming book. Practice is still the most specific movement for the sport any athletes play, because replicating the movements in the weight room waste time (most of it). I disagree to The Bioneer on this one.
Excellent content, as always, Adam. 👍🏾 Specificity is constant in my training, at the moment (Armwrestling). I like the bit about the different keyboard sizes.. I'm like that, when I switch back and forth with my guitar & bass. 🎸... Question to the viewers: What sporting backgrounds, do you all come from? I've always thought this channel would bring in a wide selection of activities. [I'm a lifelong sporty guy (51). Always loved strength-based training, martial arts, grip, and rugby league. Bruce Lee was my hero, along with old time strongmen. My new passion is armwrestling! 💪🏼😎. Cheers, Andy
I would suggest that the idea we never do 10 reps in nature is untrue. Think about moving several slabs when we are building, skimming stones, running up a hill, crawling a certain distance or chopping wood as mentioned at the start of the video. Otherwise a very good video!
I agree, but how do you measure strength growth over time? I feel like basing things off of effort or ease is sometimes changed based on how well rested or just day to day changes. I mostly train Highland games and I can track things like distance thrown, but a lot of that comes down to technique, but I know when my squat goes up every month over 6 months I am developing leg strength over time. And if I changed my squat progress every time, say half rep or ATG, high or low bar, the weight would change and not give me a good measurement of progress.
Have you ever thought about making a video about functional strength for soldiers? It's very interesting to consider. The load carriages we undertake isnt seen anywhere else and the capacity to apply ones self articulatley under the loads we carry is rarely seen to be honest. I would be very interested to hear your take on it

Hey Bat-man! What do you thing about combining military training with weightlifting, tai chi, yoga and martial arts? I'd share my routine if asked. Cheers!
PLEASE ANSWER They say body is get used to movements you do in time so if we do your workout example doing different pushup variables every repeat cant the body just get used to all of them that will limitate our gains in further stages? @The Bioneer
I usually do change my workout program every 6 weeks im just wondering which is best constantly chang derivating like you or using them a good amount of time get the gains and move on
How do you expect to keep the adaptations you make nuerologically or physically in your training if you're constantly switching from different disciplines or are you suggesting a more wave like training with all the different modalities you train?
Remember that on RUclips a lot of fitness info comes from a perspective of competition by retired professional athletes or current athletes. When people talk about losing gains its small amounts that only change your ranking in competition. If you hit new PR in cognitive skills, weigh lifting or cardio, as long as you don't just stop your regimen for months you will retain most if not all of your gains.
Another great vid! Which sandbag brand to you use/recommend. I recently destroyed mine doing sandbag cleans and need a new one. I've see you using a sandbag recently in your videos, figured you might know of a good one. Thanks.
Really interesting to hear your philosophy of being as good as possible at multiple disciplines (speed, strength etc). Currently my workouts are bodybuilding focused - working mostly isolation exercises with some compound movements. My question is do you think bodybuilding workouts reduce your risk of being injured just as much as other training e.g. 'functional', speed, unilateral?
Would mixing squat and more functional training like a car push then make sense for the purpose of running faster? If the squats can help more with hypertrophy in the legs and then the functional training to improve fibre recruitment and movement patterns?
I'd love to see your take on an MMA strength and conditioning program, or even a 'best exercises for fighting'.

I have been concentrating in long steady runs and strenght training but that little sprint of 2 -4min even got my legs sore the next day.
Your video reminded me that I'm training in a bubble and need to experiment with more exercices in order to be a more complete athlete. If you hadn't posted this video, this would just fly over my head. Thanks for intriguing me every time :)
Just ordered your book, by the way, got big hopes for it after super-functional training!
Just got a tire for sledge training!
You can also make it in to a cool industrial looking table, cut and sand a piece of plywood to go in the center, which will sit on the inner rim and when ever your not using the tire for training, you've got a cool table!
I love that your videos are well researched, clear, and more focused towards integral fitness rather than just the aesthetics. Good job.
You’re an absolute guru of movement. It would be helpful to see a rehab video, how to come back stronger from injury. I recently had acl surgery and want to make an insane comeback 🦾
I really enjoy the use of Jackie Chan. IMO, he and Bruce Lee were far ahead of their time, just in divergent ways. Throughout his Golden Harvest Productions films, we saw him training is such a mixed up variety, for seemingly everything. Ergo, it makes perfect sense to continue to use clips from these to further visualize the points being made.
Now that I have been learning how to use Adobe Illustrator for UI and web design, as well as graphic design, I am really vibing with the typography you have started using. I also think the 3D effect you've managed to make your signature is inspiring. I like the idea of somehow using this but coupled with the similar typography. I am assuming, without taking the opportunity to research, you have created you own here.
Thanks for another amazing video and I look forward to another book and next videos. Stay safe, stay healthy, and have a healthy evening.
Thank you for this channel. I have been a fan for years. I hope you and yours have a safe and Merry Christmas!
I think you make interesting and potentially strong points, but I feel like the problem with this kind of training is that it is very difficult to track progress. Performing a select few compound lifts week in and out is easy to track because of weight/rep increases. I don't even know how I'd go about consistently striving for progress with so many variations.
If you enjoy working out with a lot of variety, It is not a problem. Simple fix: Go harder than last time. Or train hard until you fatigue. No need to track, as long as your training is of good quality, then I’m sure it’s fine.
Love your videos B! You explore, explain and Boss everything I try to instill into my clients as a personal trainer. You are amazing and inspiring!
LOVE YOUR WORK SIR........! every time i watch your video i feel a little bit smarter..... mad respect for you.
Highly under rated channel.
I 100% agree with this training. Be broad and creative with your training. I’m designing a program for myself to be an optimal warrior athlete that combines strength/power/endurance/mobility. But I still have plenty to learn so I appreciate the channel and your amazing content. Seems I’m looking to be a superfunctional warrior athlete.
theoretically, yes, you can still play Call of Duty after playing Doom Eternal, but would you want to? :]]]
amazing video as always, Adam 💚
Haha 100% true! 🤘🏻
Interference!
Could you please do a video on special exercises to really improve speed and rotational power in the golf swing, Thanks!
something about you lecturing paired with videos of you looking super strong seems to boost the integrity of whatever you're talking about in all of your videos by like 1000%
The timing of the video is perfect
Book has been pre-ordered. This will be my guide for 2021
I think specificity can easily be misapplied if people don't know the difference between training movement directly vs training underlying systems. If you train for speed only by doing very fast movements with light weight, your progress will be limited. Instead, it is better to first train underlying systems, strength->power->, and then speed. In that way, you will end up faster.
I don't think obsessing over joint angles when training the underlying systems is beneficial. When training strength in the beginning you should focus on the exercises that can most effectively and safely increase your strength. Most athletes do squats and other compound lifts when strength training for a reason.
The conclusion that learning generalized movement patterns make the athlete more robust is similar to the consensus of the aim training community for videogames. We generally train with varying sensitivities that help us focus on different aspects of aim. For example smoother control can be developed using a higher sensitivity whereas speed can be developed using a lower sensitivity since you'll be required to faster and farther to have similar performance. Some of us even go so far as to use Whisperrr's sensitivity randomizer which seems to improve reactivity and overall performance over time. Though there hasn't been enough consistent data to isolate this as the leading variable since most of us experiment with multiple routines so we're changing more than one variable at a time.
This may be something that you could look into and extract some information from that might apply to other aspects of training. Constant adaptability would seem to be useful for every facet of fitness and brain training.
I’d love to look into this further! Can I pick your brain? Are you in the Bioneer FB group by any chance? That training sounds epic and I’ve been planning on doing a video on gaming soon...
@@TheBioneer I'm not in the FB group, I was under the impression it was meant for Patreon supporters which isn't financially an option for me at the moment.
However if you're still interested in diving into aim training or other areas of game training I have been collecting and studying all available resources on the subject and would be able to help you get started.
The very best resources to start with are the Aimer7 guides and the guides from Voltaic (formerly Sparky) as they have a lot of beginner friendly material. Though these are by no means exhaustive and I've been experimenting with a variety of methods, generally getting in the 90th percentile and up on most aim tasks.
Hey Adam, have you ever considered doing a day in the life video. How you train on any given day, what you eat, basically how you are implementing the topics you cover on your channel?
Great video putting big concepts into simple applicable stories. Gonna be making 3/4 of my workouts stability and calisthenics from now on
Indian clubs is something you should start experimenting with. Ive started doing some very random movement patterns with 5lb pair and im blown away by the results.
Alphadestiny does a video on specificity and so does the Bioneer. Hmmmn I smell a future colab
Lmfao probs not, bud.
Build a strong robust base then add specific skills. Practice a lot. Then learn to combine those skills as needed and more importantly as you wish. More Practice. Making your mind and body perform how you feel it needs to, as second nature. Works for me. Apply this to any form of study. To Acquire skill. Your Kung fu is strong! Great video massive amount of thought in a small time frame. Not sure how you manage that.
Just pre-ordered my copy. It should arrive January 19th. Having just started Calisthenics a few weeks ago I've already had notable increases in core and grip strength. I want to see how much more I can improve before the book arrives.

Ehm okay...
@@yeh2319 Search: Bro Science Life. All will be explained haha.
😂😂😂😂
What about flipping a giant tire at the gym?
A true man of quality I see
Speed work with barbell compounds built muscle and explosiveness
Thanks for this video! I was thinking about this kind of stuff for my own training plan
this guy is a legend
Training for soccer players next, love ur content 💙💚
Great video! You should consider making a video on doing multiple workouts while fasted. I've been wanting to lift weights, run and do yoga all in one day while fasted but haven't been able to properly time what time to do each
Awesome video. Really enjoyed. Thanks for sharing your insights. Merry Christmas mate.
Rippitoe on explosiveness is misguided for sure. I mean just try it, I've increased all my jumps and running speeds simply by doing heavy weighted jumps. I honestly believe we can train explosiveness.
How much do you squat? If it's less than 200kg/440lbs, you will increase all your jumps/sprints by increasing your squat. If you then add specific jump training to the strength training, you will have the best way to get better.
The real reason why people don't like strength training is that it's hard and the adaptations come slow.
@@soez_strg6166 not that much for sure. I'm a short guy but I still squat for strength. Thanks for some input.
i don't think Mr. Rippetoe is misguided, he included the power snatch and power cleans (you also jump on those exercises)
on the Novice linear progression program which is an exercises that is scalable for any level of athletes.
you can increase explosiveness but not as much as increasing your strength levels.
Intermediate athletes can now go to programming that is specific to the energy system required for the sport of an athlete since after the novice level most athletes have a good foundation of strength,This requires thinking and not buying templates or so called programs (unless you are intellectually lazy) that is why Mark Rippetoe wrote the Starting strength and Practical Programming book.
Practice is still the most specific movement for the sport any athletes play, because replicating the movements in the weight room waste time (most of it).
I disagree to The Bioneer on this one.
Sir i will use your ideias as class in d&d, thank you for existing
Thank you, I really like your approach on sport science and training in general ! Im looking forward to your book, Thank you !
Excellent content, as always, Adam. 👍🏾 Specificity is constant in my training, at the moment (Armwrestling). I like the bit about the different keyboard sizes.. I'm like that, when I switch back and forth with my guitar & bass. 🎸... Question to the viewers: What sporting backgrounds, do you all come from? I've always thought this channel would bring in a wide selection of activities. [I'm a lifelong sporty guy (51). Always loved strength-based training, martial arts, grip, and rugby league. Bruce Lee was my hero, along with old time strongmen. My new passion is armwrestling! 💪🏼😎. Cheers, Andy
Love it ❤️ your channel is a breath of fresh air 😊
How about a tour of all the equipment you use to workout? Could use some inspiration from it because gyms are still kinda risky to go to
This vid made my day😊
Love ya man keep up❤❤❤
i remember elliot hulse saying back in the day to do the opposite of the sport youre doing in the gym, to prevent pattern overload and injury
I would suggest that the idea we never do 10 reps in nature is untrue. Think about moving several slabs when we are building, skimming stones, running up a hill, crawling a certain distance or chopping wood as mentioned at the start of the video. Otherwise a very good video!
Very informative, Mr Schnitzel.
I can't wait to get your book in January
I agree, but how do you measure strength growth over time? I feel like basing things off of effort or ease is sometimes changed based on how well rested or just day to day changes. I mostly train Highland games and I can track things like distance thrown, but a lot of that comes down to technique, but I know when my squat goes up every month over 6 months I am developing leg strength over time. And if I changed my squat progress every time, say half rep or ATG, high or low bar, the weight would change and not give me a good measurement of progress.
Keep up the good work dude!
Have you ever thought about making a video about functional strength for soldiers? It's very interesting to consider. The load carriages we undertake isnt seen anywhere else and the capacity to apply ones self articulatley under the loads we carry is rarely seen to be honest. I would be very interested to hear your take on it
Awesome video! 🤙
Oh I ask you for a video about kyokushin karate
Can you review Marinovich training modality and it’s more known off shoots Sports Science Lab (SSL), Speed of Sport
GSP the goat did his post ACL rehab at SSL
Nick Curson speed of sport studied at SSL
LEKKER 💪🏾
THIS IS IT, A GOOD IDEA TO TRAIN LIKE THAT WOOOOO
Long time fan!
Could you do a BJJ type training regime?
Is that band system at 03:16 a custom build or is a purchased product?
Hey Bat-man! What do you thing about combining military training with weightlifting, tai chi, yoga and martial arts? I'd share my routine if asked. Cheers!
Let's hear
Loving the tree climbing Adam!
PLEASE ANSWER They say body is get used to movements you do in time so if we do your workout example doing different pushup variables every repeat cant the body just get used to all of them that will limitate our gains in further stages? @The Bioneer
I usually do change my workout program every 6 weeks im just wondering which is best constantly chang derivating like you or using them a good amount of time get the gains and move on
I hope to see more nutrition videos in the future
How do you expect to keep the adaptations you make nuerologically or physically in your training if you're constantly switching from different disciplines or are you suggesting a more wave like training with all the different modalities you train?
I think it’s the brain and muscles getting use to a variety of movements in training to help get used to realistic movements outside of training.
Remember that on RUclips a lot of fitness info comes from a perspective of competition by retired professional athletes or current athletes. When people talk about losing gains its small amounts that only change your ranking in competition. If you hit new PR in cognitive skills, weigh lifting or cardio, as long as you don't just stop your regimen for months you will retain most if not all of your gains.
Another great vid! Which sandbag brand to you use/recommend. I recently destroyed mine doing sandbag cleans and need a new one. I've see you using a sandbag recently in your videos, figured you might know of a good one. Thanks.
Really interesting to hear your philosophy of being as good as possible at multiple disciplines (speed, strength etc). Currently my workouts are bodybuilding focused - working mostly isolation exercises with some compound movements.
My question is do you think bodybuilding workouts reduce your risk of being injured just as much as other training e.g. 'functional', speed, unilateral?
Cant wait for the book
Excellent! You are sir are Brilliant!!
Hi, I love your video's! Can you make a video about training with resistance bands? And maybe one about foamrolling! Keep up the fantastic work!
You should become a strength and conditioning coach
Another amazing breakdown!
Can you please tell me the name of the bands used at minute 3:16?
Would mixing squat and more functional training like a car push then make sense for the purpose of running faster? If the squats can help more with hypertrophy in the legs and then the functional training to improve fibre recruitment and movement patterns?
2:48 I see Mrs. Bioneer and mini-bioneer!
Agreed! Try and run indoors and then run outdoors: a complete different thing!
Bioneer, if I ever make a batman movie , you're first on the list for Bruce
Interesting. Keep it up.
@bioneer have you looked at Steve maxwell and his perspective on slow training?
