I love how crossfitters just get after it, and give 100% into what they do. I think as weightlifters we can get so lost in the process and thinking about the details and intricacies that we forget that sometimes you just have to send it and put 100% effort into a lift.
I would disagree with your big selling point being your height. Though that is a feature that I appreciate as it goes part in parcel with your “no excuses” mantra, I’d say the quality of your content and coaching videos takes the cake regarding what makes keeps me coming back to your channel. That alongside the fact that you come off as relatable. Whatever the case, keep at it man!
So many great cue points in here, some I've not tried before. We've got snatches on the program this coming week in the gym I'm gonna see how they land!
As a 7 year crossfit guy I can assure you I’ve never had a warmup like that. This looks like a heavily attended seminar, nobody has 50 people in a regular daily workout. A normal CrossFit gym would still welcome your nerdy antisocial tendencies and embrace you for them 😂
Zack explained that the bottom of the lift was the most important. yet when watching the workout at the end, I think I only saw 2-3 people that actually hit a solid bottom position and paused. All the rest were more focused on heavy weights and finishing first. Sorry to say this is the mentality of so many cross fitters, quantity over quality. Zack does a fantastic job in explaining but they lose the plot later.
Unfortunate consequence of having more than one human being completing the same sporting objective. Human nature will turn it into a race/competition. No doubt many of these peeps will go away and practice these cues, and then their form will improve in the workout. But in the heat of the moment, the body relies on muscle memory.
Dang, these haters going to hate. Coaching is more about tricking people to do what you want them to do than most people imagine. These are really great tricks.
I love seeing Gui weightlifting. I did notice that during his squat w/o barbell, his shoulders were internally rotated. His armpits were not facing forward. Hmmm!
Hi Zack I m planning on starting weightlifting, but I have zero experience a part from bodybuilding training for a coupoe years ( even though pulls are my strongest, i can deadlift double my squat ). In your opinion how long should it take to add weight on the bar? Should I expect to work only with the empty bar for more than a year?
The best answer to this and the best thing you can do is get a coach. You can try and learn yourself but you'll really just be shooting yourself in the foot
My trainer allways tells me to openy hips more. If I think about stretching the frontside of your hip like in a jump, I have a more natural feeling contact with the bar❤
I don’t get the phrase “bottom position of the snatch is the most underrated” when every coach I’ve ever been around has talked at great lengths about the bottom position of both lifts…
I am a big fan of your content! However, I get motion-sicknes from watching the very "jerky" video style. Many of your recent videos, I've been unable to watch because of extreme nausea. I know I'm not the only one experiencing this, so I just wanted to let you know.

CrossFit is cute.
I think alot of foundations are skipped in crossfit. Almost all professional CrossFit athletes have an Olympic lifting background.

This is the first video I've seen which really demonstrates how tall you are. Makes me really appreciate how heavy your lifts are for such long limbs
One of the greatest snatch mobility warm ups 👏👏
Never seen the bottom up approach before, thanks for this!

Good stuff man. You made yourself through hard work and dedication. I wish i could join your seminar one day.
Great training technique, love it!
I dunno why, but I didn't realize Gui's English was this good. Cool vid
Great music, great vibes. Thanks for the upload.
That seated 45 technique is gold 💪🏽
As a nerdy anti-social powerlifter the warm up at the start of the video has dashed all the thoughts I've ever had of trying out crossfit.

This was really dope, nice work Zack!
Awesome video, so many great cues! Thank you!!! 🙏👍👍🤩
🇵🇹🤗🙏 thank you so much, more videos of this genre . Good job
This Gui fella looks like he‘s got his technique on point. Perhaps He should try this Crossfit thing. He might win the weightlifting events…
What a great environment 🤙

Man, that one crossfitter walking between the two lifters at 18:58 gave me so much anxiety

What was that song in the beginning?

Your songs in Spotify got a geographic lock just letting you know
