Holy shit your videos are literally saving me from a ton of bad mentality I've built up in my head from watching too many overly-coplicated gym videos

Just came back from the gym, I accidentally touched a smith machine on my way to the squat rack, I'm so sorry dad

I'd like to see a "unified theory of training" series from you. I've really been enjoying Renaissance Periodization's hypertrophy series.

This was so refreshing and encouraging to listen to-

I’m an upper-novice powerlifter where I’m just starting to experiment with my own workout program, and I have more advanced friends who always tell me I’m doing something ineffectively, even as I’m still making gains with minimal injuries.

Finally got on boostcamp and started your bullmasttif program. The RDLs week 1 are already killing me. I have been making alot more progress since reading your books and learning about programming. Keep up the good work!

My son (14) and I (45) are doing Starting Strength this summer together. SDB, OHP and chin-ups. We're both already lean tennis players. I'm targeting 150g protein daily, he's targeting 100g daily.

Helpfulness/usefulness is exactly one of the reasons that I restarted lifting. Helped move a bunch of wooden benches (200lb). Wasn't winded or so taxing that I was toast after. Being strong has so many benefits. The other reason is I wanted to reverse/prevent/stymie any potential bone loss. I'm nearing 70 (only 12 short years away) and didn't want to be thinking of bone issues at that age. Better to start now, and be prepared for the eventualities of aging.

Dan John always talks about how ALL programs work, and the only way to find out is to cycle thru and learn. (and to RTFP, not modify it a 1000 times before running it as written)

Hey, personally the idea of being useful to others is really important to me and gives me motivation. Being rather heavy and biger doesn't really have many advantages in day to day life but I like lifting. Being useful in a physical way kinda breaches the gap for me. Greetings from Germany

As someone who works out in my garage, I appreciate this. I don’t have all the cables and special gym equipment that gyms have and sometimes it’s hard to follow a set program. I do have a power rack and barbell though

I have been a professional mover for 10 years now. thanks for bringing up the strength and stamina of carrying couches up flights of stairs!!

Masterful pep talk coach! Feeling positive about what you are doing will reap rewards. 👍

This was perfect for me to hear!

I live in an apt and I have a barbell, squat stands, some iron plates. I wanted to do 531 BBB but was worried about the 1x a week frequency.

I’ve been following it for the last 12 weeks and it’s best fitness decision I made. Most consistent I’ve ever been. Nothing like doing one main lift for most of session and just doing 2-4 bodyweight assistance or some bb rows and boom I’m done. I put all my focus into my main lift of the day and my time/energy dictates the assistance/conditioning. Thanks!

[leinekenugelvondoofenfocke]

I can't wait to get back to the barbell row. I am tired af of dumbbell rows, but I wanna get at least one more pr before I switch back.

I'm doing the eric bugenhagen approach, do anything between 8 and 20 reps for a few sets. Its interesting how most skills start out rigid/ simple but end up more random looking

[TheComedyButchers]

The Perfect Program:
Barbell Hip Thrusts: 5*5
Back Extensions: 5*5
Hip Abduction Machine: 5*5
Cable Kickbacks: 5*5
Do this 5x a week for best gains

[TheIncredibleFlyingSausage]

Thanks bromington, love your videos. A refreshing change from all the noise out there.

[maximsNotes]

this guy is so smart and well spoken thats unreal

[AncientEL]

I started with calisthenics watching videos to bodybuilding to know the types of excercises to do freeweights and now I'm looking into powerlifting to get stronger in bench and squats and all styles are very good and useful. Simple basic stuff for results.

[filiperodriguesaquin]

And here i was, thinking if it was crazy to try building a program with the big four focusing on strength and complementing with accessories for general balance and aesthetics, and you posted this on the perfect timing.

Thanks, dad
