So agree with Rip at 21:31. So many times I've gotten to the bottom of a squat (or any lift in the rack) and start pushing not knowing if I'm going to get the weight back up... but can attempt knowing if I fail the pins/straps will save me. I've always been amazed how many times when I thought "no way" mid-rep I've gotten that one. Its even more interesting if that was rep 3 or 4 in a 5 rep set. Its amazing what your body + mind can do/push sometimes. Moral of the story, get a rack if you don't have one and don't be afraid to fail.
The squat rack in my gym doesn't have adjustable pins, and I squat lower than the pins so I squat outside of it. This way I must come up.Haven't failed a rep yet.
I'm so relieved to find someone else who is mature enough to be bored with pro sports. They've become the religion of men suffering from arrested development.
The reason old people won't squat or deadlift is because they think they can get the same results from their doctor. They don't give a shit if the side affects are worse than being sore once in a while. It is easy and insurance pays for it. I'm 78 and have lifted for around 60 years. I don't like doctors and have been lucky enough not to need one with the exception of lifestyle emergencies like motorcycle racing. Once I get the cast on, I don't go back. My point, in over 60 years I have never convinced one person to join me. They all think I am crazy.
ultimaetsolder I mean, I bought it some time ago, and it updated automatically to the latest revision, at no charge. If you buy the physical copy then yes , you need to pay for the new one. So I guess digital version is a better alternative
Iced London dry gin, vodka, tangelo zest, Cocchi Americano, 6 drops of absinthe, three scoops of unflavored whey protein isolate and a can of diet root beer..
I've hurt myself way too much and way too often trying to grind out shit reps. Love all the advice you offer, Mark, and the content you provide on your channel, but I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one. Yes, push yourself, but if your fourth rep looked and felt like total dog shit, rack it up and try again next week.
This came out just in time for breakfast. I already feel motivated to eat more.
Add in a vesper martini
Rips getting grumpier and meaner by the day.
yetigriff I’ve been watching his videos for a decade, he’s approximately as grumpy as he ever was.
Rip is a showman, he is not meant, very generous with sharing his knowledge.
Ain't it great!
So agree with Rip at 21:31.

I'm too lazy to set up the pins but I've only ever failed a squat once outside the rack and it was fine just kind of dumped it over my head
Whacked off twice to Deadwood last week, per your advice. Thx.
My wife and I watched a few episodes of Deadwood but just couldn't get into it. I do still practice my "hip drive" weekly though!
Would be nice to have timestamps in the description of the questions.
@zach morris If it wouldn't be too much trouble.
Then you'd miss the best bits
Rip is smart AF and hilarious.
Editted to express gratitude for that Vesper Martini walkthrough. Love it 🍸
after listening to mark rippetoe I started squatting 145kg to warm up and drink mead out of a horn.
Stevecap_89 you didn’t listen hard enough then because no matter how strong you are you should start your warmup with an empty bar
Did they adapt Ron Swanson's character from Rip's?
Bottom 3% checking in!!
You are a funny man Mr Rippetoe. I love your podcasts.

Ah piss troopers! Go find a root!

Hi from the UK -- information and hilarity all in one go -- brilliant!
Thank you for The Coaching Eye Suggestion! Keep up the great show.

*crack* *ssssip*
“Yep, the Y-12. Now THAT was a hell of an airplane.”
You betta preach Rip about 60+ fitness and pill culture.
I'm so relieved to find someone else who is mature enough to be bored with pro sports. They've become the religion of men suffering from arrested development.
So looking forward to SS Dallas opening

Any chance we can get Rip to watch, and give his reaction to the Lebron James squat video?
38:31 "Meetings are so cool."
Love it!
17:19 I've been wanting to hear Rip say diabetes since I first saw him. It was just as amazing as I imagined.
Please open a Starting Strength gym in Evansville Indiana.
Oklahoma will gladly go with Texas. TEXOMA WILL RISE!
I always wondered why my Kindle version got “updated”, if it’s still the third edition. Copyright page shows it’s the third revision
To make more money...

Omg this is fantastic! Thank you for the laughs!
Great video!
Please put a mic on Nick.

Did something else and put my headphones back in at 30:20, just to hear Rip talk about a botanical Gym that comes in a red glass bottle.
How appropriate is it that squirt and squat are so similar?
10:00, the Q and A has not started
I used to love watching NFL till they started marketing to women and having trouble standing. My Sundays are now productive!
Is Jason Blaha on Staff as a Coach?
Bla-ha-ha-ha-ha-!
5 ice cubes hahahaha this guy loves fives so much
I wonder if the kindle versions of his books get updated the same way the new print versions do
They do, Bryan.
10:12 Rip at his comedic best
Iced London dry gin, vodka, tangelo zest, Cocchi Americano, 6 drops of absinthe, three scoops of unflavored whey protein isolate and a can of diet root beer..
now that Ripp started giving "cooking" tips there is only 1 question left for me to ask: Who of you, bottom 5% asks Ripp about a good vegan recipe?
Congratulations, Rip, you just invented a Corpse Reviver #2
Not here for the great strength advice - more here for the oscar the grouch of fitness youtube.
I wonder if the Engineers from Prometheus drink Vespir Martinis.
Isn't clear liquor for rich women on a diet?
I do agree baseball is boring as fuck
👍
I used to think his last name was Rippletoe
Let's just leave Louisiana behind.
Edit: Canada too.
We already have. They just haven't gotten the message yet
Same thing Tom Segura the water champ said. Build a wall around Louisiana
39:28
No pirates in peoria just riverman
GOMAD or go home Ripper!
I think you need to be mic’ed up as well, Nick. It’s hard to hear your feedback with Rip.
video starts at 12:00 and talks crap about whisky between 25:00 and 35:00
Second!!!
Gin, and vermouth, both taste like somebody drank them already.

DevilsRejection so use rpe?
legitboss100 whatever you want to call it. if it feels like shit, rack it. if it doesn’t, keep going.
DevilsRejection that’s loser talk. If you’re hurting yourself that often your form is shit
Baseball IS terribly boring. Most people are NPCs who will consume as they are told.
Twentieth!
It’s “white”, not “hwite”.
We don't really need 6 minutes of bs. Just get to the questions
We do
Skip it
You suck
It’s not all about you, Craig
So boring. Can you edit it down to just the important parts? Maybe 5 mins max?
Your opinion is very important for Rip.
