    The squat rack, a holy mecca of strength. It's something we all learn to use at some point in our lifting careers if not from day one. Some of us even know hot to use proper form (if you don't go over to these videos to learn how!:

    Now there are limits to our abilities and with those limits comes the law of accommodation. It's a tricky law to learn but once you do you'll never workout again the same. Straight weight is good but mixing it up with bands, chaotic implements, and tempos is where the rubber meets the road. Your body gets use to the same motor patterns over a period of time tapering your gains and limiting your max potential as a lifter. So how do you combat this? Well, let's talk lifting and bands. They're a great tool to add to your tool belt for many reasons. Bands resist when stretched at the points in a lift that most lifters fail, while allowing a lifter to train through weak points. They also give the body new and different environment to grow muscle. This is the core of why bands are great to add to your workout routines on a regimented schedule.
    So you want to squat with bands in your workout. Now what? Well Matt Wenning has you covered. He has used bands for most of his lifting career and wants to give you the secrets to lifting with bands in the squat rack. He shows you how to set them up WITH and WITHOUT a competition squat rack!! These are tips that most lifters will not tell you because they don't want you to learn these methods. Top tier lifters from Westside Barbell to Golds Gym all know these tips and now you know too!! Enjoy the information and please follow this tips to the T because bands are dangerous if you set them up improperly and don't have the proper foundation while setting up the squat.
    Thank you so much for your support and we will continue making content for all of you to use, so we become stronger together!!!!

"Start with flat bench, then inclines, then flies, peck deck," etc etc. I think a guy like Eddie hall will get strong no matter how stupid and cookie cutter his program is. If I am not mistaken Wenning even had a five or six hundred pound bench press before he even started Westside.

    Do you think squatting atg with heavy duty knee sleeves, like the gangsta knee sleeve, can cause me to have torn a vastus medialis? I always stay very hydrated and I do about 45 mins of stretching and light lifting as a warmup. The weight I had on was about 60 percent of my max when it happened. It was a warm up of 405 for 1.
    Great video, my gym finally got bands and chains, so I've never used them, so I've been using dumbells, I'm glad to see how to use plates.

  • @gnodlem
    @gnodlem 4 года назад +3

    How much volume of speed work is enough to force an adaptation? I.e. 6-8 sets of 1-3 on a particular lift? And does the volume on speed work need to be equated to repetition effort in any way? I’ve seen the videos talking about actual bar weight being 30-40% and then accommodating resistance varying just to keep the bar speed at > 1.0 M per second so I’m just curious

  • @brandoncheek2597

    The way you're setting up in a rack seems really convoluted, why not just loop it around the bottom supports like you did with the mono? When you choke them down they don't slide, i've been doing it this way for years. Even easier with band pegs, which it seems like 90% of the racks these days are equipped for.
