its amazing how fast you can rebound if you have years of strength training under your belt. People rarely believe me when I tell them I went from benching 185 to 355 in 5 months after i went on a heroin and cocaine bender and missed 7 months in the gym and barely ate anything but candy and beer. So even if you become disillusioned if you feel you aren't making gains or plateauing there are long term benefits that are not often realized until years after.
He is like the average person that goes the gym, he gets there by bike, no fancy clothes or material, trains alone, commercial gyms, but not only he trains the most difficult strenght sport but he does it at an olympic level
@@DanielRowlands1 True lol. Outside of a few people that know each other in the gym everyone else is pretty quiet and in tune with their workouts. I've been at my gym for almost a year and I'm gonna be honest there's not 1 person I talk to regularly there.
I really enjoy this series, it's a nice break from the hyper-aggressive WE GO JIM type lifting videos that seem to be everywhere now lol. Technique is looking good
The disbelief when Clarence just casually visits Sheffield and trains in the same gym as you! Going to have to track down that bar and see if it's got any leftover power!
@@ahwerdfw But that's nonsense. Being 100kg is not near heavy enough to cause joint problems unless you are about 5'4. I'm only 21 and 98kg and there's plenty of room for growth. I still feel fast, powerful and light on foot. Sore joints at such a weight will be caused by unrelated issues. (unless you are obese)
Actually saw this from the top balcony and wondered who the f**k I was watching..... Obviously found out and here I am.... If you'd shown your next attempt at C&J you probably see me in the mirror 🤣 Amazing to see in real life, most impressive thing I've witnessed in 25+ years of training.
Always love how honest Clarence is about his training, no ego, no BS, no glorification. If his struggling he will tell us and if his having a good time he will tell us, love that
Liking the slay the spire music when advertising your programmes :). Great to see you getting strong again so fast. I enjoy listening to your methodical approach to training.
Nice video Clarence, love to see you training again and love the narrated vlog format of the videos. If I recall rightly Matt used to live in and work in Bath? I seem to remember his face, believe I met him there some years ago. Keep it up and look forward to the next one!
9 sessions a week, recommends 6, while I'm almost 40 years old now, feeling like 25 in my mind but body struggling to recover from 3 sessions. Being a dad of small children is stressful ^^. Great video Clarence! Still going for a PR when they sleep through the night. Fittest @ 40 maybe?
@@samuelabbottchannel I’m pretty sure he said it directly in his last vlog. He only bulks to 100kg+ when he’s using. Not to take away from how much of a freak and how hard he works but it’s just obvious. You don’t get to 90% strength in 5 weeks without taking
@@nicholastartaglia4276 I watched his last vid fairy recently and I don’t think he said anything about hopping back on gear so I just wanted to get the consensus by asking. But yeah I agree. Not only has he recovered 90% strength in 5 weeks but he’s also put on a lot of muscle since his last video. For me, as someone who’s been lifting for over half a decade and is currently bulking, that amount of clean weight gain does not seem possible for a natty.
excellent training vlog, this just popped up in my feed and it's nice to watch someone training hard whilst remaining calm, and $1 for patreon for extra content, I'm in.
You would think clernece would be fumbling, but no, the man’s videos are getting more views than expected. I’m here for it because I kind of like regular content from him and was great to see that he is healthy
Clarence, you probably won't see this but I need to let you know that you are my inspiration for the gym. If I could have a poster on my wall that I looked at everyday, it would be you.
