+Kavin Patel Well I began doing his Starting Strength (Third Edition) during the Christmas week 2016 and 9 weeks later I am amazed by the difference in my strength already. Every day I think about it and can't wait to be training again because my numbers go up every time. I've done BB for 30 years and intended to just increase my strength between Christmas to around the end of April, then go back to BB for my Summer clothes. Now I know I'm going to continue strength training indefinitely. Not just because of strength gains, but because of functionality and how great I feel. So you're totally wrong.
Just a thank you to Rip. I am 62 and have been strength training for the last 4 months. I was shocked to see how weak I had become. My wife and I along with several other people have been working 3 days a week. Life changing for all of us to say the least. Thanks again
I’m 72 lifted on and off since 26 or so A good bench for me was around 300 weighing about 170! Have done a lot of running with 10K being my special distance. When I ran a lot my upper body strength would naturally drop. Now after recovering from cancer which really kicked my ass I started lifting again! In just under 11 months I have increased my bench over 100 LBS. I’m very proud of that so you can gain in your 70’s! I do less volume but always do heavy sets of no more than 5 reps! Works for me! Thanks Rip!
I'm also not a very nice person anymore when someone is careless while I'm doing something heavy. The power rack is set up fairly close to a smith machine and some kind of sitting row machine. Once, I was doing 5 sets of singles with a heavy bench (for me). I'd rest about 6-8 minutes between sets. Every single time I started my bench, they'd decide to change plates. I failed one rep because of this. I've also had people walk over the bar while I was PCing, and one dude tried to stand over the bar and ask me questions while I was deadlifting. What pisses me off the most are people trying to duck under the bar to grab plates while I squat.
Crim x normaly im not a talker in the gym, when i'm alone, i go in and out quietly. But if someone would try to grab plates during my heavy squat . I would freak out.
Crim Between tourist douche bags and the uncivilized people at my gym, I thought this behavior was just something particular to Thailand. It appears jackasses are a global organization.
Mark is a genius..... While his advice on "why you should be strong" is compelling enough. I still feel like this video gave me the absolute best advice that I have ever had. Everclear and club soda..... Mark that is amazing! I have never thought of that nor have I ever heard of that. But it sounds AWESOME!!!!! Sage advice as usual. Man i would love to hear from Marty Gallagher. Your Videos with Kirk, Marty and Ed are absolute GEMS... Thank you for that Mark... The best part from your videos are what lies between the lines.
From a non American this guys is a true American ,he knows so much about how to do a good dead Lift that you would be dead before you know how to do it right :D.
This man has the same personality as all the people who have ever had any sort of influence on my lifting/sports training. Maybe I just like the delivery, or maybe there is something in the sauce.
@The Rockall Times he's direct, to the point and teaches you what you need to know without adding a ribbon to it like most teachers do nowadays. We need more teachers like Mark.
I am a coffee roaster, and we started off home roasting with beans from Sweet marias!. We also love Ethiopiana a bit more . never knew rip was a hobby roaster!. cheers! I should send him some coffee!
I just started working with 5lb dumbells and I'm getting some strength. Just competing with myself. I've been walking 6 miles per day for a couple years of now. I'm 70.
"Older people benefit more from the training" "Older People are better clients" "Yea I really like training older clients" The thing that I would think that coaches like about older people is that they normally have the means in which to pay for the training.
All clients pay so i dont see your stupid point about someone prefering a older age group because of money over teens who are not serious at all. Written by a teen thou lol
Beginners under 25 will make decent progress regardless of the quality of programming and nutrition they follow. Improving their performance is relatively easy and tells you nothing of the quality of your coaching and programming. On the flip-side, beginners over 50 will struggle to make progress without proper nutrition and training protocols. Their progress tells you a lot about the quality of your coaching and programming. Older clients also tend to listen, follow instructions better, and follow the program more strictly. They make way better clients for a lot more reasons than financial ones.
Older people who seek out and sign up for his particular stlye of training would make better clients. More patient and better listeners. As a teenager Mark probably wouldn't want nothing to do with me because at the time I wouldn't of known how to appreciate his experience, underestimate the importance of dieting and just being unthoughtfully arrogant. But give him a humble young person and Mark I bet would go above and beyond
I've known about Rip for years and have had my opinions about him. But the fact that he's wearing a Weyland Corp shirt makes me want to pay more attention.
More people should attempt to roast their own coffee, and I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that you're a roaster as well. SweetMarias seems to be one of (if not the best) sources of beans. definitely very popular on coffee forums.
All single malt scotches are “blended” technically. Just all from malted barley spirit from a single distillery. The master blender at all these distilleries has to blend and mix to achieve a consistent flavor from batch to batch. They dont just crack open a cask and pour whatever comes out into a bottle labeled “single malt”. I get what you mean by “blended scotch” referring to ones with other grain alcohols in them - some are truly lame. But take Johnnie Walker Green label, a blended malt. It has exactly 4 different single-malts blended together with amazing flavor character and at ~$50 it’s a dam fine scotch!
6:10 "Don't spend money on advertising"... and then immediately follows that by saying to create content. Content marketing costs money, too. Or time (which is a non-renewable asset). In fact, sometimes... content marketing costs WAAAAY more than just running some cheap ads on Google Search or Facebook display.
Respect to Rip for his passion , work etc...Fyi , an episiotomy is very much in vogue and not going out of action, rather its included as a part of normal routine labour delivery. A Caeserean section , or C section as more popular, is a surgical procedure involving a big cut on the mothers tummy area or a bit lower down in the pelvis ( depending on the medical reason for needing the procedure ) is definitely one that requires a longer convalescence. However , the statement that a tear heals faster than an incision is nothing but ignorant talk...The incision is surgically made and then sutured up by an expert at it ( ur obstetrician ) and no way would it heal like a spontaneous tear which involves the entire bottom of a beautiful lady including the perineal nerves ,blood vessels and muscles , just bcos there is a cute little baby coming out..the tear will never heal like a surgical incision. ...No way RIP...u r wrong on that..its just like saying that a very strong person who was neber trained to do that , would do a dead lift or a bench press as correctly as someone equally strong and formally trained by Rip...maybe once or twice he may get it right...but not for long.
Mike Bridges, an elite powerlifter in the 145, 165, and 181 pound weight classes in the late 1970s thru the mid 1980s, always looked up (check past editions of Powerlifting USA) when he squatted, and I believe he set records for the squat in all of those weight classes. However, just as bodybuilders who want to look like Arnold consistently fail to gain muscle size when they train like him, average powerlifters who try to squat like Bridges are practically guaranteed to fail.
Yeah because caring about your health & the environment & animals is an eating disorder... I hope Rip loses that ancient way of thinking that you can't build muscle on a vegan diet.
@@ilu1994 Clarence Kennedy isn't natural. That in itself would negate any negatives incurred from a vegan diet. Second, he's obviously gifted in the squat department and would outperform most people no matter his diet. I'd argue those who excel as a vegan builder builder or powerlifter are the exception rather than the rule. Otherwise, everyone would go vegan if it thought it would give them an edge.
Scotch Whisky. Anything from Ardbeg or Lagavulin. Big fan of Ardbeg Corryvreckan, not sure how much it costs in the US. It's £60 in the UK, But with the £ dropping against the dollar it shouldn't be too much.
Why am i watching this legend talk about what alcohol to buy, i care about my body and i dont drink the shit. Didnt come here to work out what entry level whiskey i should buy.
I drink Coors and just switched over to Folgers :'-( But I always eat my yolks and don't acknowledge any milk that isn't Whole Milk. So I guess I'm only half a heathen xD
Ha, found one thing I disagree with Rip about, JW Black is my go to and JW green is one of my favorite whisky's, lol beyond those two all the rest in my bar are single malts though
Hi Mark, {Hope your well} Seen your video quite a long time ago, on the triceps pressdowns and scull crushers, and the actions of the three heads of the triceps are used more, are the three heads of the triceps fully activated, or used in the close grip bench press and the shoulder press please ??? Wayne
0:40 just setting yourself up for what? Don't get that thinking. Ignore all that. Keep lifting and living. Why have some age or time frame to limit yourself.
This guy is the Ron Swanson of personal trainers.
This should be commented on every video he is in. Your comment is wasted on these ingrates😂
Actually, the character of Ron Swanson’s mother is based on Rip. True story.
Ron Swanson was the love child of Rip and hank hill.

Well.. when you think about it, there is some truth to it. Powerlifiting are the accessory portion for weightlifting done with questionable form.

Happens to me all the time, too many morons have walked in my ROM when I'm benching. It's so fucking frustrating.
Crim If these people think that you can hold a conversation while lifting they clearly aren't training hard enough
