I dont think I could with a straight face tell Matt no I can't squat today because I forgot my knee sleeves haha I'd be fired up just getting to train with ya. Boss content as always man
Dude we tried your hypertrophy training program and it kicked ass. I got 3 weeks left on the 4th wave I'm getting a dexa scan once done to document the changes
2nd comment haha. Great stuff as usual, I tell everyone I know that trains to check out your content. I can’t click fast enough when I see a new Wenning Strength video 💪🤛
That exercise at 4:20 (nice), that upper body assisted squat is a favorite of J B Kinney. JBK was the last man certified for the Captains of Crush #4 gripper. He said he likes high reps with double body weight.
I went back 10 minutes each way to a commercial gold's gym cause I forgot my headphones. I also grabbed another scoop of pre-work out to keep up energy for the delays
I've been using the Nano X for several years now. Heel lift is next to nothing, the sole is super stiff, and the shoes lock my heel into place. The one draw back is that it isn't a hi-top shoe, but that hasn't been an issue for me up to this point. Definitely give that shoe a try if you can find it.
I’ve found that wrestling shoes are really useful on my squat and deadlift days…ankle support and much more natural contact with the ground. After watching a bunch of your videos and going back to look at some of my previous lifts I made the switch and haven’t looked back.
Matt, last year I started squatting barefoot, where my stability and numbers skyrocketed. Now, every time I try to wear any kind of shoe, no matter how flat, I lose that grounding and stability. I use a deadlift slipper for competition since I HAVE to wear something. You mentioned the importance of ankle support. Am I missing out?
Chuck Taylors suck anymore, the rubber separates from the canvas after the first squat over 500 if your foot is wide. I spent the extra money on a good wrestling shoe where the material on the side wraps under to the bottom and I have had no issue.
Thanks bro agen good informations,whit training gear!!sometimes(sessions) is better do 2-3 "helpmoves" whit no belt,no gear at all...that is my opinion!!that see a lot of egolifter ,they have everything on!!belt,wraps,knee wraps and so on so on...hehehheh ,but when you do video ,whit your trainig this days??ps:same thing ,beanch does yours arm muscle better and strongers,when go maxxeffort...
Got all the way to the end without you telling us what the point is though matt, the point Is I'd of liked you to explain what the point is more frequently. Lol jokes big fella
Eddie Hall said the reason why he dominated strong man was because he didn't use a belt until he competed which gave him more abdominal strength than the other competitors. When he picked up heavy objects he didnt sway and need to find his balance like the other competitors. Does the research show that a belt reduces abdominal strength?
Good videos but when talking about wrist wraps then talking about 600 lbs in the same breath is not a good analogy for 90% of the people watching your content. Wrist wraps will allow average guys to potentially lift more weight for reps thus creating more potential for growth would you agree ?
What about the Sbd belts you can adjust them pretty much just like prong belt compared to most other lever belts I love my Sbd belt and honestly don’t think i’ll ever switch back

Great video-any thought on wrestling shoes for squat or deadlifts?

i would like to be there when he replies LOL. just the look itself would be gold LOL X))
Doc Martins has a flat sole boot made of either canvas or leather. The support on your feet & ankles is amazing. Perfect for squatting.
🔥🔥🔥🔥

Joe Kinney was the first man who got certified in 1998. th last was Magnus Samuelsson in 2004.

I have a pair of Chuck Taylor's for the gym and even got another pair to use as walking shoes, I'm terrified of using heeled shoes now lol

Does anyone else use wrestling shoes?
I used to
I was going to post this exact same thing. Wrestling shoes are perhaps the best but unfortunately most underutilized footwear for lifting.
Great content as always!

All good advice as usual, thanks
🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
An SBD lever belt is also adjustable, without requiring tools.
💪💪💪💪
Dope information.. always.

💪💪💪💪
Nuts...gotta bring those with you
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is your master’s thesis published? I would love to give it a read.

How about that SBD lever belt? Adjustable on the fly.
Not much experience with those

Im all raw... I've only used a belt a handful of times ever... between high school and now that im starting back up again

Top piece of supportive gear is a good training partner!!
I thought 5 would be elbow sleeves to be honest

Good lifting belts?
Does anyone know who makes the single prong belt with all the offset holes?
Pioneer

Coming on my page and giving advice ?? Buddy I shoot these videos and give them out free.
Why youndeadlifting with straps Ive seen you talk shit on straps???? Keep that same energy Matt!!!!
Awesome video as always.
Keep you on your toes 😂😂
Belt up!
💪💪💪💪
Vans skate shoes are clutch boys. Especially if you have flat big feet
💪💪💪
Specially high top ones for ankle support for squat days
Please share and repost guys - algorithms not helping much lately

I once saw a guy with two belts. One on each leg

Not familiar with them

💪💪💪
Nah don’t use any gear if you need it the weights too heavy for you
😂😂😂😂
@@WenningStrength also the gear lets you use poor technique without a belt you have to deadlift with perfect form
Sure does thanks for your wisdom :))
Is it bad if i don't use any of them and lift barefoot?
No sir
