    I'll attest to Sully's comment about coaching. He gave me some coaching and encouraged me to find a coach where I live, which I did. The squat is technical enough that a trained eye should be helping you get it right- and form is something that can always be improved. Best training advice I ever received.

    Hi! I have just found this channel. I really enjoyed the episode with the 92 yr old gentleman who entered the competition. I myself turn 60 on May 1st. I have trained since my teens but over the last six or seven years my training has dropped off because almost 7 years ago I had a left total hip replacement ( un cemented ) so my legs get neglected. I do leg curls and leg extensions but that is about it. So my workouts are mainly upper body.

    Thanks Sully! my question at 24:00 . My 90 year old grandpa (had a stroke 11 months ago) today pulled 95lbs deadlift for 4X! We started at around 60lbs last april (9months ago). I got a barbell set to just leave by his desk. This saves a LOT of time traveling/driving to the gym, wait for him to get ready etc.
    Over the last few months, I started him doing stand up from chair squats -> stand up from chair holding some weights -> stand up from chair with PVC pipe high bar back squat -> now stand up from chair 30lbs barbell squat. (3X5, MWF)
    Seated overhead press (more like an incline) with PVC pipe, now progressed to 30lbs barbell overhead press 3X5, MWF.
    Deadlift (block pull, bar over little garbage can) at 60lbs (1X5) in April. To today, Dec 30th (1X4) 95lbs PR!
    Not having to drive to the gym really helps, that saves almost 2 hours back and forth.
    Thanks Sully!

    Sully, great content, great channel. Lots of good information. Two things i would appreciate it if you could address - training proprioception and for those of us with fused vertebrae (my adult children call me titanium man), what are your general suggestions.

    • @robertmendelson7724
      @robertmendelson7724 4 года назад

      Aha, I found proprioception at footnote 32 of the book. And in chapter 6. Also, you are a bit hard on biking and running. You can (and I and many others) do HIIT on a bike, or do hill repeats. But also, it really helps to do weight training and mobility work so you can generate more force and power.

      @@GreySteel it’s just that this should be taken into consideration when it comes to matching nutritional needs with the sport and/or training being undertaken. Which can be the toughest part and to often is not taken into consideration, outside the professional ranks of course. This along with
      consistency in training and nutrition. But I guess there is always the rabbit hole that is youtube.

    So, once past novice linear progression, would you say that for weight loss it's viable to have a ketogenic diet apart from just prior to training? i.e. to eat, say, pasta only during the meal prior to training in order to allow glycogen levels to build up for training, but to avoid carbs otherwise?

    • @davidpenfold
      @davidpenfold 4 года назад

      Assuming you get enough protein, and vegetables etc., naturally.

    • @GreySteel
      @GreySteel  4 года назад

      Honestly, I don't know. I think when you're on keto you're programmed to use triglycerides over carbs, and under the bar I want to be VERY efficient at using carbs, and I want my muscles full of glycogen WITH a very avid and ready glycogenolytic system standing ready to kick butt.
      But I dunno. You could do the experiment and let us know. My bias is that I don't think strength / power athletes will do as well on a ketogenic diet. If I wanted to cut weight and spend less time in an insulinogenic state, I'd decrease my feeding density, maybe do a 16/8 fasting regime 4-5 days a week. That I HAVE done, without ill effects on my training. But keto? While strength training? I'll pass, and eat my carbs to support training.

    • @davidpenfold
      @davidpenfold 4 года назад

      @@GreySteel One of the reasons I mentioned it is that the Sky cycling team apparently does the same and their riders are very lean, but also very efficient when cycling. So I assume there is no fall-off in the glycogenolytic system due to a just-in-time saccharide approach (they even test hitting 'the wall' when sugars run out so they can feel it just before it kicks in, and take remedial action).
      I'll give this a go and get back to you! My goal isn't necessarily to be as strong as possible, but to find a balance between strength and general health. BTW, a five-gold medal winning UK rower developed diabetes towards the end of his career, so there may be risks even for top-class athletes when consuming too much carbohydrate.
