I am someone who is striving to stay natural as long as possible. Mostly performing calisthenic exercises but I still love listening to these discussions from other backgrounds. The approach for switching things up when feeling a joint is beginning to be overused and fatigued is very sound advice.I appreciate the knowledge. Thank you.
I'm so glad Matt said what he said about some programming that some coaches are putting out. I always found the volume for Sheiko with a straight bar to really beat up my body. There's such an overlap with movements that it's inevitable to accumulate wear and tear: bench/squat/press/deads all beat up your shoulders, upper and lower back.
People that are so close minded they're not willing to see it from another persons pov that actually has some merit probably make to be insufferable people to be around
Id love to see the OP try to articulate what Matt Wennings way is? He consistently preaches that programming needs to be individualised. It wouldn't take him 6 months to figure out someone's programming if he only had one way of doing things
@@williamlawlor7445 well remember Matt was going to school at the time and was learning all sorts of different things and challenged Louie basically calling him wrong. Makes me want to watch that documentary again
@@LatimusChadimus matt never said louie was wrong. He said louies mindset as far as how intense he was, was wrong. Louie was all out balls to the wall whereas matt saysdont go so much balls to the wall, keep a bit in the tank, last a bit longer and get stronger because you've being doing it longer.
Matt is getting a lot of hate here and I don’t think it’s justified. He’s probably a bit tired of others in the industry who haven’t accomplished anything but feel they are an authority on training. Actually listen to what he is saying. He is giving some seriously useful training information.
Solid interview! Always a pleasure to hear Matt Wenning talk🎉 He’s full of fire and has a super inspirational background Nothing but respect and props to Matt🤙
he charges for absolutely everything. There have been people that ask him just basic questions (not even questions worthy of coaching) and he'll just ignore them, or tell them to sign up for his Patreon so they can ask that same basic question to him for a price, which is asinine af.
I’m not the biggest fan of him but Matt is one of the best lifters in the world. Do you know of any other top level athletes in other sports answering stupid questions in their email? This is his business, he’s an expert. Nobody is entitled to expert knowledge for free.
Matt has a massive amount of content from over the years on his youtube and pots free advice all the time. You guys who don't like listening to him that's cool but to say he doesn't pass on information are wrong. Does he respond to everyone for free, no and but most of the questions are things he's answered in videos already. Not meat riding but alot of y'all show a significant lack of research capability.
EliteFTS and Dave Tate, I love you guys so much! But I really do not like Matt Wenning. He is constantly trying to sell something while promoting himself. Could you get Chad Wesley Smith on? He's a real adherent to the journey and dedicated so much of his life to providing high quality FREE content - that's a real man who wants to give back, not this mug
They're really sounding like the golden era bodybuilders "all we did was sniff the slightest hint of testosterone cream and that's all we did for a cycle my whole career" lmao who actually believes that. They ran just as much if not more
I feel the same way. The dude is so full of himself it’s just obnoxious. He just yaps about himself and how badass he thinks he is all day long. He’s like uncle rico from napoleon dynamite.
Dear Elite fts team, I have been a supporter since the beginning, for decades and I appreciate the content more than you can imagine and I am very grateful for it. With table talk you have created something unique in the strength and fitness industry and I have listened or seen every single episode. Every guest was open, friendly and polite and could identify with Elite, except Matt Wenning. He does not stand for live learn and pass on and does not fit Elite fts identity at all. Please don't invite these gentlemen anymore. Many thanks
Lot a hate here. Smh. Takes ego to achieve what he did in his lifting career. And dave explains the concept of bias in one’s training system is needed and not surprising (in the mark bell table talk). You might not like matt. But he has lots of knowledge and denying that is absolutely silly. Thanks again for all the content dave 💪
Hate to be that guy but can someone who's watched it all please summarise the video for me? Would have watched it all but looking at the comments I don't want to watch 4 hours of Matt talking about himself and how great he is.
Watch the video. Entertaining and informative. People will sit and listen to Trump talk for hours about how great he is... Matt Wenning has a bunch of free info on his channel. With Trump nothings free!
His nutritional knowledge is awful, absolutely terrible. He's currently suffering from some sort of kidney failure, which he seems to be blaming on acute blood pressure spikes from Valsalva maneuver/ intra-abdominal pressure from heavy lifting. While anything is possible, it's a zillion times more likely that his kidney failure renal artery dysfunction is from the truckload of red meat he has been pounding down his entire life. He speaks often about his love of red meat and beef protein.
Yep, the science is clear on this one. Red meat increases chance of cardiovascular disease, and a very high protein intake over many years can affect your kidneys.
Plenty of people eat a lot of beef and have healthy kidneys. Personally I think a lot of people are ignoring the elephant in the room of over 2 decades of heavy gear use. We all know it has negative health consequences if abused, but don't want to talk about it when it happens.
@@stepheneldridge3637 Totally agree it must have had a part but Matt is very naive about gear abuse. I feel like he believes it doesn't give as much of an edge as it does. He's also one of the only people that believes Mike O'Hearn is natural.
I've seen far more problems benching with shoulders than military presses. All types of strongman do overhead pressing, they have some the strongest and as far as know healthiest shoulders due to having strong and well built shoulders. Matt just talks about stuff he has little proof of other than his own anecdotal evidence. Matt's very much on repeat at this point. His talking points are the same every interview.
@@mariusstrydom316 No, they won't. Bench pressing has hurt more shoulders than overhead pressing as far as I've seen. Good technique overhead pressing makes for nice, strong, healthy shoulders compared to some unnatural lay on your back and push exercise. More ridiculous fear-mongering from the fitness crowd with no proof.

I don’t trust anyone that speaks in absolutes. Matt is one of those guys. He thinks his way is the only right way
People that are so close minded they're not willing to see it from another persons pov that actually has some merit probably make to be insufferable people to be around
You didn’t listen to the podcast at all, you just don’t like the guy and came straight here to cry
“I don’t trust anyone that speaks in absolutes” is that a absolutist statement ?

One of the bravest men out there haha standing up to Louie Simmons and to tell him he's wrong takes a lot of Courage
He never said louie was wrong. What he meant was louie was too extreme. There's a difference.
@@williamlawlor7445 well remember Matt was going to school at the time and was learning all sorts of different things and challenged Louie basically calling him wrong. Makes me want to watch that documentary again
@@williamlawlor7445 he always said louie was wrong, always!

4 hours listening to how great Wenning is. Every one of his episodes is the same.
I’m trying to imagine Flex Wheeler using the terminology of GPP with 25 reps sets 😂
Matt needs to be humble like Dave
Matt is one of the best and inteligent boys in industry
Solid interview!
Always a pleasure to hear Matt Wenning talk🎉
He’s full of fire and has a super inspirational background
Nothing but respect and props to Matt🤙
Just an FYI for Matt. Sheiko's publications were originally translated to English by Dr Mike Israetel
No they weren’t
Just got one of your powerbars. Amazing quality!
he charges for absolutely everything. There have been people that ask him just basic questions (not even questions worthy of coaching) and he'll just ignore them, or tell them to sign up for his Patreon so they can ask that same basic question to him for a price, which is asinine af.
Yep he did it to me too. F him.
I agreed with your previous comment then you out right lied here... He has hours of free content.

I cant stand the guy cause of his ego. He is always trying to passively brag about himself in interviews
I feel the same way. The dude is so full of himself it’s just obnoxious. He just yaps about himself and how badass he thinks he is all day long. He’s like uncle rico from napoleon dynamite.
He does do that alot

Cuz of the 14?
What are you talking about??
This a repost?
@@randalltolbert5646 no this is.
No just another 4 boring hours of Matt yapping about himself.
He keeps reposting podcast lately
Looks like two episodes put into one.

💯💪
Matt definitely has an ego problem, but I've gained a lot if useful information from him.

Uncle Rico is back! Quarter mile Matt
Virgin Matt blocked me because I said that according to squat university and science that knees over toes is perfectly fine 🙂
Not sure I understand. Virgin Matt?
What happened about the Protein???
It was two years past the expiration date...

Yep, the science is clear on this one. Red meat increases chance of cardiovascular disease, and a very high protein intake over many years can affect your kidneys.
Or from being 280+ lbs and having unchecked hypertension for 30 years.

Jimmy Kolb and Doug Brignole (RIP) also advocates against military press and dips. Your shoulders will thank you.

4 hours? Guys does he say anything new in this?
Always talking about his sorry self and saying nothing.
He's got great information just really arrogant
Anothet homely nobody.
What does that mean
@@JohnSmith-cz3us lt means hes a blowhard.
