Death Squat Video Is Awesome

No, go there. ThreeWhiteLights who posts here goes to that CrossFit and he gives it the thumbs up. He competes in strongman, I’m not sure if they have tires or stones there or anything, but I’ve heard that CrossFit is usually PL friendly cuz they’ll let you dead. At the very least, check it out.[/quote]

Thanks for the info man, I will have to see exactly where it is and go by to see what its like. Be worth the trip just to get a personal look at it and see what they got going on.

Cool vid man. I got my own good set up in my gym in the basment and I love it, although I guess I havent trained with someone in so long I don’t even know what that kind of atmosphere would be like.
No offense to the vid or anything though, but damn I don’t like those ultra wide stance squats!

Complaining about school and work and blah blah blah is a GARBAGE excuse, when I was in Iraq I worked a 12hr shift at night 7 days a week, and the gym was about a 15-20 minute walk and I still went to the gym and trained for 2 hours, this ended up giving me 6 hours to sleep (only usually slept for 4 of them). Yeah that sucked but I was able to do it, and those were some of the the best workouts I had, I was setting a lot of PRs. I wasn’t about to stop training or cut my workouts short

I think he squats like that cause it works for him. SSB bar makes it more difficult cause you have to keep your upper back tight.

I thought the video was cool until the voice-over part, I thought it was silly and overly dramatic and so do most of the guys I train with.

Dave brings the intensity all the time, you don’t need a voice-over to convey that.

Here are some of the first videos from the UGSS we had this past weekend.

I have also been posting some of the B pics in my training log.

Another great weekend in the gym.

Really enjoying all the EliteFts vids coming out recently.

The pictures are also hilarious.
