Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

Barbell training is a safe, effective way to get stronger and improve one’s health. That being said, some basic precautions can increase safety and prevent needless injuries--and even fatalities. Proper spotting and correct placement of safety pins or spotter arms in a power rack or on a squat rack make the squat and bench press safer. Different lifts, however, require different safety considerations. For the squat, if possible, squat in a power rack. Put the safety pins just beneath where the

You have diligently executed the first four steps of the deadlift set up. You are tight--and uncomfortable--and ready to get the bar off the ground. What now? For many, no cue works better to get the deadlift moving correctly off the ground than some variant of “push the floor away.” In a correctly performed deadlift, the bar moves up off the ground in a straight line with the knees first extending and then the hips extending. At the top, the knees and hips simultaneously finish their

S2Ep8 - Technique Series: The Deadlift

The deadlift tests raw strength possibly better than any other lift. It differs from the other main lifts because it starts in the bottom position, without the benefit of a stretch reflex provided by an eccentric--lowering--portion prior to the concentric--up--portion. Luckily, we have a simple 5-step process to help you get in the correct position each time. 5 Step Set Up Stance Grip Shins to bar and knees to elbow Squeeze your chest up Drive the floor away and drag the bar up your leg Explore

S2Ep7 - Technique Series: The Bench Press

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

Though the bench press’s importance may be overvalued, it cannot be denied that this lift is unparalleled in building upper body strength. Because of the stability provided by the bench, no other lift contributes to force production for the upper body like the bench press. The bench press and press provide the foundation for lifters’ long term strength progression. Because this lift is performed so often in gyms and garages throughout the world, many should pay greater attention to proper form

S2Ep6 - Technique Series: Cues for Building a Big Press

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

Heavy presses--more than any other of the big four lifts--do not forgive form errors. Certain cues help novices begin pressing competently and, if you are a coach, must be cued early and often to your lifters. The combined cues “close grip, elbows forward, wrists straight” help the lifter get into the correct bottom position, which contributes to a mechanically efficient bar path. For the press, this means a bar path that stays close to the lifter’s face and moves in a straight line from the

Though its prominence has increased due largely to the increased popularity of CrossFit and StrongMan, the press remains an undervalued and underperformed lift. If you haven’t included presses in your program--or if you want to improve your press--learn about the importance of the press to a well-rounded strength program and how to correctly perform the press.

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

A more horizontal back angle characterizes the low bar squat compared to other squat variants. The back angle throughout the squat provides important information about whether the squat is being performed correctly or not. During the descent, the back angle should set somewhere before halfway down the squat. Once the back angle sets, the back angle should stay nearly constant during the rest of the descent and coming up out of the bottom. Two common errors occur on the ascent of the squat. Both

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

Certain form issues pop up regularly with lifters. Common cues arise to address these issues. “Knees out” remains a staple cue for coaches looking to fix errors in the squat, including knee cave and knee slide. As a lifter descends in a correctly performed squat, the muscles lengthen under load, and the lifter should feel an increased tightness as she approaches the bottom. This provides a stretch reflex that assists the successful completion of the lift. Knees caving in and knees sliding

S2Ep2 - Technique Series: The Squat

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

The squat builds strength, adds muscle, and increases mental toughness. The squat begins each training session at the beginning of a lifter’s linear progression and often requires the most work from the coach and lifter to correct form issues. The squat deserves its nickname, “the king of the lifts.” Learn how to squat, which cues help lifters get in the correct position, and why we advocate for a low bar squat.

S2Ep1 - Technique Series: Programming is Secondary

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/27

Figures in the fitness industry debate issues such as using RPE, including power cleans in linear progression, programming for older people, and prioritizing intensity or volume. Some argue whether a certain program provides better results than another program. While coaches may enjoy debating the finer points of programming, form and consistency--more than programming--determine how fast you progress toward your goals. Improved, consistent form allows lifters to lift weights more efficiently.

#340 - Which Deadlift Track Works Best for You?

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/17

Coach Matt and Coach Niki outline three different deadlift programming "tracks" for lifters, based on their sex, age, size, level of training advancement, and long-term goals as a lifter. Over time, Matt and Niki have observed that, depending on these factors, most lifters will thrive in one of three tracks, or programming models. Very high intensity / very low frequency with lots of supplemental lifts A block style model with moderate to high intensity and moderate volume A DUP style model with

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/10

Recently Matt and Niki have been dealing with a prominent issue among their late intermediate and advanced lifters (some of them very strong too!). These lifters will descend beautifully into the hole on a squat, then while driving up allow their knees to shoot back, causing their hip angle to close and their backs to become more horizontal as more of their body mass travels behind the midline. This is a phenomenon they have experienced primarily with more experienced lifters, who perhaps have

#338 - Why You Should Be Pausing Your Bench Press

Beast over Burden powered by Barbell Logic ·

2020/08/03

Coach Matt and Niki explore a common issue with the bench press -- losing tightness at the bottom of the eccentric portion of the lift. This error presents in a number of ways, such as the elbows flaring out or "chicken winging" on the way up, the chest and/or sternum sinking during the eccentric portion, or the bar visibly bouncing or rebounding off the chest. Matt and Niki first attempt to fix this problem by having the lifter slow down the eccentric or lowering part of the movement, bringing
