Instruction unclear. Doing 3x5 bench press

[jarodbarker]

This is Pendlay's old program. Front squat, snatch grip deadlift, push press.

The elusive frontsquatch roaming the forest with huge quads and enviable t-spike mobility.

Can confirm, front squats are immaculate. My biggest deadlift PRs have always come on the heels of front squat training blocks.

[christopherseat]

Front Squattin has improved dramatically physically and mentally.

I hope you guys know you make my day every time you upload a lift companion and motivate me to train harder and get better every day

[onedealboxtm]

I knew this was why I got so strong in the summer, doing mostly fronts, snatch deadlifts, cleans and push presses, thanks to that my ohp went up as well

[Dementia.Pugilistica]

These 3 exercises are almost the exact same in one day of a minimalist workout I built for low skill barrier to entry for sports with an explosive power demand (though I did snatch grip high pulls instead of SGDL and zercher squats were allowed as subtitute for front squat).

The push press is a GOATed movement that I don't understand it's lack in popularity.

[ShireTown]

I can't believe this is a year old, so glad I found it

[jaymccormick]

Brilliant. This works for weightlifting for sport performance training perfectly. Don't worry about the technicality of the snatch and clean & jerk. Hit these three, throw in a day 2 of strength and day 3 of conditioning and you're going to be a monster. It's why I put these movements into the TFT-Thruster plan I wrote for my side project. Good stuff Coach Z.

A final fantasy 8 outro track? I see you're a man of culture

[andreasmovement]

We also have the weighted calisthenics total: muscle up, squat, dip and pullup

[iielysiumx]

All 3 of these are in my routine, I front squat twice a week. I alternate between clean stance deadlifts and snatch grip deadlifts and alternate between push presses and strict press


I can also back up Zack’s statement on front squats not deadlifting for 4 months I went back to movement one day for fun and added 15kg to my PR, so what Zack says about front squats is 100% true

[tatache]

Reminds me of the Kloov power week-end competition, with 6 lifts : snatch grip DL, front squat, clean and strict press, jerk from the rack, hang snatch and thrusters.

[ranaepape]

Ok Zach. Anyone tell you you seem to remind them of the actor Vince Vaughn? Keep it up. Fun, honest and educational! 🎉

[jordanbickerstaff]

Love how the song at the end caught me completely by surprise. IYKYK.

[Feegle]

“Push knees into the ground on the way up.” Just tried it and it’s absolutely the perfect cue!

[adatud]

I love youe videos, they are always straight forward no bla bla. I am at the start of my weightlifting journey after a year of regulat strenght training and your videos are THE best on YT imo. Thanks for your effort!!

[markusf.]
