Q&A Episode - Unfiltered and Unculled | Starting Strength Radio #98 

“Crusty lobster talking bad to you”. 🤣😂

Dave Ramsey got me a stronger bank account and Rip got me stronger.

Mark is great to listen to when you can't fall asleep and you need to go to bed. Barbell bedtime stories

As a landfill management specialist this is a damn good episode

Rip needs some love from the comments. We love you Rip

"..as a result of not being dead" another epic punchline🙂

Rusty’s laughing is the most infectious on Bre’s team. And Nick is the only one on this planet who has figured out how to get a word in while Rip’s talking.

“You’ll be the first guy I pay for an opinion...” 😂

Rip’s the kind of guy to be disappointed in a baby for not drahving with the hips when picking up his toy car.

I just had a weird dream where Rip was jumping over trains with a prowler. What is the meaning of this? Does anybody know?

38 yo powerlifter from Europe here Former pro Rugby player Did and tried many programs, plans, ideas, .... Nothing even comes close to SS!!!!!! Thank you Rip You deserve way more credit, even if you don't care. You're one of a kind.

We want an entire show of Comments from the haters!

It took me nearly the whole episode before I noticed the Monkey. Got me again, lobster man.

21:29 Subs: _I've heard that regular sauna use increases _*_humid_*_ growth hormone._ Makes sense ( o.o)

I love rip so much.

24:36 I have calculated my 1RM to be in excess of 650. You better trust The Science.

It’s very shocking to hear that you listened to Rush Limbaugh for 32 years.I never would have guessed.

OH MY GOD I MADE COMMENTS FROM THE HATERS I'M FUKN FAMOUS :):):) The charcoal comment

Always gotta go wild through the tendonitis, hasn't failed me yet.

India's rate of death caused by heart disease went from 15% to almost 30% from 1990 until now. It wasn't "India's diet" that caused that. An increase in tobacco use, alcohol, fast food, and soda along with a greater emphasis on working sedentary office jobs is the main reason.

Started listening to el rushbo in high school 20+ years ago. I will miss him dearly

A Fred Saberhagen _Berserker_ reference? Ripp is a man of unexpected culture!

Americas anchorman was awesome and will be missed!

Comments from the Haters is solid gold

3:30 He’s an arm specialist

Of this whole thing, the only thing I understood was the days of the week. Is it possible to have these translated to Liberal Californian? You know. Instead of the mesh mask your head is wrapped in surgical masks with a face shield and someone next to you translating from TX to CA? Thanks a ton Ripp!

FRIE-DEH!

On the topic of animal sourced vs plant sourced proteins: Leucine ratio is a huge problem with plant protein sources, this is undeniably true. Protein founds in most whole plant foods (not soy/pea protein isolates) has a very low bioavailability. It is believed that while the amino acids are present, we lack enzymes to efficiently cleave them away from the fiber molecules they are bound to. The PDCAAS scale (**) evaluates food protein quality based of human needs for various amino acids, and ability to absorb them. Most animal protein sources hover around 1.0 (max value). While some plants come close, many are much lower (potato 0.99, beans 0.75, peas 0.6, peanuts 0.5, wheat 0.4). Lastly, animal protein sources (meat) are very dense in protein/calorie. Most plant whole foods are not. A person needs to eat a lot of calories and fiber to get protein from plants. It's not always efficient. For reference, gorillas are mostly vegetarian and as a result spend about 1/2 of the day chewing. (**) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_Digestibility_Corrected_Amino_Acid_Score

Rip, you should follow in Joe's footsteps and have Pavel Tsatsouline on to talk about his opinions.

:"Board certified upper extremity specialist"...so he's a physical therapist who skipped leg day in physical therapist school?

Good to hear the “haters” are revitalised! Had a couple of laughs. Nothing wrong with a trap bar for a change in training.

Mark Levin is greater than Sean Hannity as a broadcaster and his books are superb.

Bre is the key.

RIP Rush. Thanks for your comments. I started listening back in 1989 when I was about 21. I couldn't believe what I was hearing at first because it was so outrageous and funny as hell. It didn't take long for me to realize that he was saying exactly what I thought. I've been a fan ever since. Talent returned to God...

ATG front squater and low bar avoider checking in. Hi Rip.

So I'm not the only one who thought "this guy is a nut hugging yes man" when I started hearing him off camera lmao

..."This is such a fucked up piece of prose.. " - Mark Rippetoe 🤣🤣🤣

"Length of the Stroke" 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

I watched all of these episodes from start to finish in 2 weeks. I came 1,776 times. Merica. Rip is the king lobster, 2nd only to Jordan Peterson.

I felt the same way about Rush. I miss him bad.

I appreciate Rips stoic, libertarian opinion towards everything.

Trap bar video still reeling em in.

Great! Very informative and funny at the same time, the "P" scale is great 😂

Appreciate what you guys do and the knowledge and wisdom ya'll share. In today's "science based" world it is nice to see people still focused on the hardcore barbell movements. God Bless.

Would love to know what they bleeped out

Best day of the week! Thanks!

I made it!!! Made my day. Got an eagle in golf, got on comments from the haters

The 60 YOM felt good doing a 5x5 working set. Um...if you can lift it 5x5, that might suggest you aren't lifting heavy enough? I could be wrong, but an element of the LP seems to be that as you add 5 lbs each week, you are hitting up against the boundary of your capability such that 3x5 should be tiring?

Wondering if somebody can listen to this guy for 1 hour 31 minutes.

As a guy in his 40s. Jujitsu and strength training is difficult but not impossible. just listen to your body, for me it's 4 days a week. Usually 2 of each. Sometimes 1 day of grappling and 3 day of lifting or the other way around.

Kind of shocking to hear Rip did crossfit in his 50's. Even I knew better and skipped that trendy bullshit.

If you’re gonna swing from nuts, you couldn’t pick a finer, pinker pair. I wonder if his nuts do 5’s as well?

I would say to the MMA question. Treat the MMA as "practice" most of the time. Notice I said MOST of the time.

It took me until the 12:28 mark to see the monkey. Does this mean that I need to start drinking a gallon of milk per day? Thanks for all the laughs.

Don't forget The Mark Levin show Rip!

Still Thursday 🤯

Emphasis on BORED certified... As a former prosecutor. I'm not impressed with his credentials.

The circle comment was actually funny.

Big fan of Michael savage

You were walking oot in a boot in Canada🤣😂

“You look like idiots”. Well thats the same thing every says about everyone else who disagrees with them lmao

I dig the snappy big band music for the show, who is that playing?

A board-certified corrections-officer.

Congrats to Rush Limbaugh on 2 and a half years of sobriety.

WMAL's Chris Plante...

#poo2theloo

1:16:19 You are welcome

39:16 Uh-oh, seems like Rip is finally losing it.

At around 32:00, If you do football practice, wrestling or just work a physically demanding job, it's good to lift, but reduce volume. Maybe 2 sets of squats, 1 set dead lift, 2 sets of bench twice per week.

Hello

Lol you won't hear from P5s they'll just drive through the front of the gym. 😂

Rip's team should take a leaf from Joe Biden's team's book, when Rip says, "I'll answer some questions now", cut the feed!

During the question from the gentleman from India, I couldn't help but imagine Rip as a Libertarian Indian, railing against the government's efforts to keep him -- a godd*mn Indian citizen -- from shitting in the street.

17:00 One other way to press [speaking from experience after a bus accident and my right shoulder is fucked, though not NORMALLY painful] is to do an exercise called "Scrape the Paint" where you start at the bottom and make sure the air is in contact with the rack at all times until you have to put it back on the pins, making SURE not to lean back to much INTO IT but try to stay as normal with the movement, meaning straight, the contact with the cage is for stability and nothing more. [ I imagine you can also start this from the top, tough I don't see how you would rack it again] Hope it helps. As a last resource, do it in the Smith Machine, kneeling down. This who say they can and those who say they can't are both right. Rip recommends you get that tear repaired, but ALSO FROM EXPERIENCE, make sure the doctor is not a dumb ass who just wants to make money on it, make sure he is an experienced doctor, who can actually read or interpret your MRI or x-ray properly, some start to see things that just aren't there!! And the mess they make if he is not experienced is horrible and you will end up worse than you are now.

Rip is the Dave Letterman of the Strength world

Great episode today Rip, I remember listening to Rush in my truck during lunch break back when I was in College, he was a really good guy. Hannity does suck, try listening to Alex Jones sometime, never a dull minute. Keep up the good work.

“P5 hates you so bad that she’s irrational like *BLEEEEP*”. -from “A Child’s History of Muad’Dib” by the Princess Mark Rippetoe

Vote Libertarian please thanks:)

Nick I liked your snl reference with the a Aron comment 😂

Takes a lotta damn gall to clutch your pearls about people insulting a dead guy that made his living insulting people

With the MMA comment, what does staying away from Mormons have to do with it and why didn't Rip say anything about that comment?

Triple cheeseburger with 4 pieces of cheese...... I'm hungry all of a sudden.

“He should have identified as black and this would be considered hate speech” hahaha! So true!

Mark Levin is a very talented broadcaster and tremendous writer. Very cerebral

Rip, why do you say "Fri dee" and "testoster in" ?

The haters did not disappoint. Laughed more than I did watching Coming 2 America.

Rip, I think that the hot/crazy matrix is way more useful than the P scale

Braums is awesome! My kids work there. Great food and products as well as a great starter job for 14 years and up teens.

Hey MMA guy. Listen to Rip. That was great advice.

False advertising... it was not yet Friday in Texas when this video was posted.

That guy

I think I'm going to start saying Sundi, Mundi.....

Rip when are you gonna write your autobiography and rip can I please write your biography?

My daughter's mum is a P5, wish I had this podcast 7 years ago...

Was "liberals" the word bleeped?

Can you just send rusty back to the oil fields?

I wonder if the Engineers in Prometheus also had birds to feed?

30:00 Is there even the slightest chance this is not a troll? C'mon Rip.

Rush got better and better as he grew old. We should all hope to do as well

Can we get an uncensored version of the P scale?
