@JamesMcKenzie1972 Год назад

Nick, I like your energy and enthusiasm but this is the second video I've watched where I think you're being irresponsible. Having untrained lifters attempt bodyweight overhead movements is super dangerous. Olympic lifts are technique dependent. I wonder how many of your contestants go home with serious injuries? I had to stop the video after the first skater kid almost bailed his first attempt. Not a hater. I love how you encourage people to get into fitness but I think this one was a miss. Cheers.

@boliussa Год назад

What on earth are you talking about.. if you practise something sports related for 1 hour or less, and can't do it it doesn't mean oh it must be hard.. There are sports people practise for a few years and are still rubbish at it and barely reaching intermediate level!

@aggman0123 Год назад

@@boliussa I wasn't saying that it's hard because they only had a small amount of time to do it. Weightlifting in itself is a very difficult sport that people spend their lives training for. But many people that have never been exposed to it will see one of the lifts and get the whole "I can do that" mindset. So as I said it was nice to see more people be exposed to them, and hopefully enjoyed them in the process.

I agree. I hurt my lower spine trying to catch myself backwards on one of my shoulder press reps in my lower 20's. I heard a small crack and never got it checked out. The pain has gotten less over the years and it only is noticeable during certain times. These challenges are fun to watch but I worry someone will hurt their spine trying to catch themselves from going backwards while the weight is up.

@scarletevans4474 Месяц назад

I have no experience in such lifting, but I have a feeling that multiple people in the video tired themselves out too much, before being able to lift their weight, maybe even failing exactly because of that. What do you guys think about it? Quickly going for like half of the weight seems fine for a warm up, but aren't multiple attempts + taking too long simply crushing and draining you out extremely fast?

@Hydde87 Год назад

The attempt of the second to last person made me uncomfortable. The bar went behind his neck on the lift and started pulling back on his shoulder blades. I think they were lucky that he was one of the stronger people who could keep the bar stable and that he received help fast. If that was someone weaker I think that could've resulted in an injury, the person falling over or dropping the bar onto their own shoulders/back.

I have a pretty hard time with the clean and jerk when catching it on my upper chest, also my hands are short so when I catch it properly my pinky finger is basically taken out of the equation.

A thousand dollars is quite an insentive for a student. Hell, even for me. But it is (or atleast should be) seriously impressive to get your own bodyweight above your head. Even more so if you've never done it before or trained specifically for it. Looks a little bit dicey when people fail :D

Bison I usually love your videos but I've gotta say I didn't enjoy this one as much. I love oly lifting with a passion. I've been at it for about 18 months. I realize that isn't a long time but any injuries that I have experienced, or injuries my coach have mentioned happened during his career and one of his athletes careers, all occurred when performing the lift incorrectly. I currently have a wrist sprain for catching the bar incorrectly at a warm-up weight. Most of the strangers who attempted to clean and jerk in this video have never done it before, do not have the mobility or flexibility to do it, have never broken the movements down that are within a clean and jerk, and do not know how to properly bail out. The ending was awesome and as always I love watching your videos. But for safety reasons I was very worried and am glad that nothing went wrong when a lot could have gone wrong in the recording of this. Keep at it with the awesome videos though!!! Always a fan.

Thank you for this message! I was concerned for people’s safety as I always am. To help make sure people were not injured I was there to coach them, spot them, and help them warm-up & build correctly. I assure you no one was injured in the making of this video. I also want to point out that life is about taking risks. Sometimes we get a little banged up and bruised along the way and that is just part of the adventure! There are worse things in life than nursing an injury. As an elite athlete yourself I know that you know what I’m talking about!! 🦬

I think the push press would be the easy part. I always do my OHP strict (I've done multiple sets of 10 reps with 135 strict at a BW of 170), but I think push is a lot easier because you are using leg drive rather than just upper body. I've never done a clean with any appreciable weight, so that's an unknown for me.

@sirisaacedgelord6733 Год назад

Push press is always easier than strict. At one point I could only strict press 125 but could push press 175. But I also have strong legs so. Oh and also the clean part is mostly just about technique. I could do a shitty version of it with 175 as a max but switching to actual good form I probably could get 165 or so and I've not trained it correctly for very long

@coachingconfidant2785 Год назад

lol push press is only like 10-20% more weight you can lift, so you would get around 150

@sirisaacedgelord6733 Год назад

@@coachingconfidant2785 Not at all. I was push pressing 155 and strict like 110 for a while. Then 175 and 125. It's a much bigger boost if you know what you're doing

@@coachingconfidant2785 I don't mean jerking the weight over head. I also don't train Olympic lifts nearly as much as I'd need to for that to be the case
