Such a smart guy. No selling, no bullshit. The Internet needs a few more thousand Chad Wes Smiths
Marc I think there can be only one
+giovanni velasquez not sure why it isn't letting me reply directly to your comment, but daily squatting programs have very powerful but limited applications. They can have a very powerful peaking effect because of the high levels of technical prowess and neural qualities that will be developed, but in the longer term you'll be missing out on the benefits of hypertrophy and general strength (violating principles of overload and phase potentiation), can become stale and not develop weakpoints (violating specificity) and make fatigue management very difficult.
Love your videos man but can you please update your mic? It is extremely hard to hear you and sounds a bit distorted just some advise that I feel could help people comprehend the things you are trying to say as its important and informative information thanks.
Using you full name sounds so badass. I'm gonna start doing that. Btw love the videos man - keep them coming.
Love to see a similar video on how to design a hypertrophy block!
You dropped a plate on your mic didn't you!
I wish the audio was more fucked up.
Wow and while wearing Sperry boat shoes!😎💪
i like the way of peaking....heavy singles heavy doubles low volume! make a man fat strong and happy.

Hey why do you still utilize so much exercise variation so close to a meet? If the goal of exercise variation is to aid in hypertrophy and work on weak points, isn't that an off season job? I mean, spending energy in anything more than the comp lifts sounds like unnecesary taxing to the body, since volume itself is very taxing and it needs to be low to allow for the raise in intensity. Besides, I think our CNS would be more efficient if we do 3 lifts than 10, despite being close variations.
It can also be used to prevent over training
hands down most knowledgeable dude out there!! thank you for sharing your information with us chad
Are there guidelines how many technique days or percentage of your total volume per lift can be allocated to technique training?
can't hear you.
What about a beginner/intermediate lifter who is a higher weight class...
Love your content Chad, i've been following you and learning a lot. Just one tip, get a mike/headset it sometimes hard to understand and hear you. JTS rocks, nerding out on training knowledge
I get all juicy inside from Chads programming videos, just too good mate! Hopefully see you down under!
Thanks Chad! As always, a great video! Looking foreward to using this to peak for my upcoming meet
Am I weird if I want a t-shirt that has a picture of chad printed in the front?
Hey Chad, hope you still read this. Thanks for all the content, you helped me out of my plateau which has improved my general well being as well.
If your purpose is to gain strength for example combat sports (as in lets say 4 rep max) and you don't compete in powerlifting, do you think it's still beneficial doing a month of peaking to get different stimulus or would it be better to rotate between 1 month of hypertrophy and 3 months of strength with no peaking?
Thanks. Here is a video on periodization for BJJ strength training: ruclips.net/video/17fPI6YGCJ8/видео.html
Thanks for these videos Chad. Amazing material !!!
i love qotsa playing in the back
Awesome channel... Do you do any online coaching or programming?
Keep doing what your doing!!!
+Gary Hughes Thanks. Yes, that's all right here...store.jtsstrength.com/products/online-coaching-chad-wesley-smith
Thanks so much for sharing this information with us Chad!
Thanks for directing me here man. This has been very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
question. the "peak" chart that you showed are those your 85% plus numbers? for the whole 3 weeks before the de-load. or are those the same as your "strength" percentages except that final week before the de-load
Holy "insert expletive here" traps!
was that an Eddy Coan sighting at the end?
excellent stuff Chad
Yep. Thanks
Can anyone actually link me a vid a pdf file with a actual weightlefting programme...im new
Another question... In your Peaking example you showed (Peak 1 and Peak 2) where does your "Taper" (as defined in your book) begin and end? You didn't use the terms in the video but is that your last two weeks shown as "Deload" and "Priming"?
Currently looking at a peaking program for a upcomming meet and came over this article: www.jtsstrength.com/articles/2014/08/12/peaking-powerlifting/. The program for master 198's seems different in the way that there are only triples in the last peak, no doubles or singles. Do you think triples are optimal or should there be singles and doubles too?
Thank you Sir! this is very enlightening. I am trying to harmonize Smolov for squat and bench then throwing in some Ed Coan deads program in prep for a meet in August 2016. Do you think this is optimal? Thanks again!
I have 2 weeks to peak for this last qualifier and then 2 weeks till regionals :/. That includes rest.
Chad, thank you for the video. I have your book and use these to cross-check what I think I read but I have a couple questions. In the Strength block you rotate Hi, Med and Low across the weeks. So you might hit Squat Hi, Bench Med, and Dead Low in a specific week. For the Peaking block are you throwing that idea out so that the entire first week is Med, the second is Low, and the third is High (across all 3 lifts)?
What were the warm up sets you did before the working sets?
Awesome content, BTW!
I never would have thought that you were supposed to deadlift in boat shoes. I have some of those shoes but I never even thought about it before
Are those phones attached to the inside of the plates on the squats at the end? Where's that footage?
Bring back the whiteboard!
Hi Chad,
When dropping both intensity and volume 50%, are you dropping the weight as well as the amount of sets? Because dropping intensity 50% automatically drops volume 50% aswell. See my example below. Am I understanding this correctly?
Example:
100ibs for 10x10 = 10 000 total volume
50% drop in intensity:
50ibs for 10x10 = 5 000 total volume (50% reduction)
50 drop in intensity AND volume:
50ibs for 5x10 = 2 500 total volume (75% reduction)
Thanks!
Volume isn't sets X reps. You already answered your own question. If you dropped intensity by 50% and kept the same sets/reps then volume has been reduced by 50%.
How long is the block
19:02. Walkout 1025.
Chad, Entering a training period post-meet should I use the actual numbers from that meet to calculate percentages or my anticipated/goal numbers for the meet the program is leading and peaking up to?
Yea that'll work.
Hey Chad, great video. I'm interested in purchasing one of your ebooks however I wanted to know if they are kindle friendly?
They are all in PDF
Do you rely more on percentages to make your doubles and singles, or is it more feel that day?
thanks! Your videos are great, I'm on my 2nd cycle of your strength block and already obliterated my old 5RM!
I'm doing basically all my work by feel. Just working backwards from what I want to hit at the meet but it all falls within the given percentages +/- 2%
i know theres creating a strength block and this one, but for some reason i remember that there was a hyperttophy block one as well. But I cannot find it for the life of me :(

chad why do you wear wrist wraps while deadlifting?
+Rico illiano I was wearing them there to stop so much sweat from running down my arms onto my hands and affecting my grip.
Hey,Chad
Would you ever recommend doing reps to failure? If so when would you recommend using them as a tool during a training cycle?
They can have their place in hypertrophy, as training closer to muscular failure will elicit more muscular growth, but you have to properly manage the greater fatigue levels that come along with that.

That makes perfect sense. Access damage made to body and rest accordingly. Thanks for the advice! Big fan of all of ya'lls work!!!
Awesome, Chad! Do you think you could do a video going into more detail about your deadlift set up?
+Redline Winner Thanks. I talk about it some here...facebook.com/497492160317058/videos/vb.497492160317058/956287121104224/?type=2&theater
+Juggernaut Training Systems Thanks
When attempting to progress a lift, does your approach to programming change when there isn't necessarily one specific problem area/weak point? How do you program just simply not being strong enough at such a high level? Does it just boil down to simple percentages and periodization? Or do tools you've used in the past come back into play, even though they aren't being used to address one specific part of the lift (e.g. chains/bands etc)?
+Connor Blakeborough exercise selection certainly plays a role in program design, you need to understand make makes your lifts go and what muscles need to be strong enough to allow your technique to stay intact.
Doesn't that contradict the idea of specificity? Anyone that pulls over 700lbs for reps is surely pretty qualified in the realm of powerlifting, right? Or am I being naive haha. I guess what I'm asking is, if the idea of specificity is the more qualified you become within the context of a powerlifting movement, the less carryover more general exercises will have to said movement, how can exercise selection play a big enough role to fulfill the volume/intensity needed to progress a lift that's already at such a high level of qualification?
+Connor Blakeborough I'm not sure where I advocated choosing a general exercise. Doing the competitive lifts all year round is a violation of phase potentiation, variation and probably fatigue management, but just cause you don't only do the competitive movement, doesn't mean you need to choose overly varied movements either. During hypertrophy and general strength blocks you should choose exercises that best build your competitive lifts in the long term, those are likely the competitive lifts and variations that overload a specific weakness (if you round over int he squat, front squats would overload that weakness).

Oh okay I get what you're saying. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I'll definitely give the article a read. Cheers!
I'd love to hear what you say but the sound is too crappy :(
