all right hi everybody john meadows here and we're back with another special prize winner prize meaning you get to train some legs so this is clan clinton you're from toledo toledo ohio which is up north and clint won a drawing we had at bullfrog nutrition of course you guys know paul so clint made the drive down we had a big snowstorm last night so thanks for driving so i'll make sure that you get your money's worth today paul's also paul also has another uh store opening we're at perrysburg in perrysburg so paul's business is growing for those of those of you who support bull frog nutrition thank you very much but um i'm really happy to have clint here we're going to work hard today we're going to train some legs we're going to mix in some powerlifting and bodybuilding both we're going to have fun today so anyways we're going to hit legs so let's get to work all right so what we're going to do on these squats is we're going to do eight sets of four this is our counting system so we just finished our first set so you move over here and then when you're done your kettlebells the kettlebells we lined up over there or you just use a piece of chalk you could just put lines on it so we're moving fast we're going to go back and forth we're doing sets of four so we're doing eight sets four so a lot of this comes from louie over west side louie's uh one of my mentors i really loved it over there we did eight sets of i believe it was two reps real fast two people back to back we squatted a little bit deeper over there we don't have a box here so we're going to use a bench the lowest bench we could find but the goal is speed so you want to rock back a little relax and fire and come up it's teaching your body to be explosive by the way if you're an athlete this is great for athletes weight wise you can't go real heavy if your reps are slow then you're missing out on what we're trying to do here speed reps so boom boom boom a lot of speed so you got to kind of kick your ego out of the way you gotta gotta go a little lighter um back when i was squatting around 785 i did these with four plates so now i'm going to be using maybe we're using the spider bar which is heavier than a regular barbell so ah i'm probably using 260 to 280 something like that but but just forget your ego this is kind of the powerlifting element we're teaching speed producing force pass and again it's great for athletes four walking in so that was so that was better we lined up a little bit had a little better speed and did you notice how his back wasn't bowing like that it wasn't going like that that's better that was good and just do a triple three that's good right right is that better yeah let's just stay with that okay okay let's just stay with that it's just too deep for my name no worries okay good good good right there so brett's form is real tight as you can see he's rocking into it he's exploding up you got a nice rhythm there that was real good so two this will be my third one right here um yeah go ahead and put the collar on case i killed myself all right let's finish strong let's finish strong here you got it let's go good job boom so you get tired doing these if you do them right i know it's not a lot of reps but if you're providing maximum effort so if you're driving out of the bottom as hard as you can you expend a lot of energy if you do these and you're not that tired you weren't firing up hard enough so you need to really explode up these and again you should be out of breath because you're just using so much energy trying to go up as fast as you can so that's our eight sets all right so we moved on to our hip press uh leg press hit press um awesome machine made by rogers so we're going back to just kind of straight bodybuilding stuff now three sets of eight where the last two reps should be really hard so more just standard bodybuilding now uh trying to get a little bit more blood and muscle more wraps more tension the weight should feel heavy so three sets of eight good good two [Applause] so that's really good depth right there if you go that low with your knees kind of angled out you're going to get a lot of your inner thighs that adductor area so if that's a weak spot on you try to make it a point to get a little deeper on these try to let your knees travel out to the side knees should be lined up over your foot but that kind of that wide stance and deep deep wraps get that inner thigh really nice those adductors that's a little closer stance that's a little closer right there a little bit more quad um a little bit more teardrop too actually so there's not a one way that's perfect it's whatever you're trying to target i'm trying to get a little bit more quad here we go good eight one two three four five six one two three four five six seven eight four three one one two three four five six seven eight now i want you to slow down on these slower and deeper more slow there you go one oh perfect that's what i want right there two good that's one right there three good nice and slow four good come on fine come on keep going six oh keep going seven keep going come on eight one more come on up now move your feet in move your feet in close now give me a little piston wrap so little half reps a little deeper not even that deeper than that come on ten five more slower slower slower slower give me a slow five and you're out of here slow five when you're out of here back down back down back down back down two back down three back down [Music] so nice work clint finished up with a drop set uh wide and then at the end you can see he moved his feet in so you could pump out some more reps slow the tempo down uh as you can see too we slowed the tempo down toward the later reps just really focusing on form so that's a good hard drop set there come on you got it four come on five go come on six long set let's go let's grind seven come on 13 more eight stay tight keep your form tight nine one more let's make it ten okay breathe breathe get your five deep breath five deep breaths two more knock it out here we go i'm watching you and i'm like man eleven down back down back

watching my videos you probably knew what was coming the set that you can do about 10 but you squeeze out 20. so we did one or two sets with low low wraps just to get to the working weight and uh just like five reps and then on the work set like i said get a weight you can do about 10 or 11. find a way to get 20. that's a lot of hard hard reps right there so that was it on the pendulum brutal set brutal set now we're on to our next brutal set two three four five six two three big flex six seven nine ten twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen sixty seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty i'll give you ten partials out of the bottoms one two three four five six seven eight nine now hold it up hold it right there ten nine hold it hold it hold it seven six five four three two and one good job good job okay so we just finished with the death set on legs engines which was just one set 20 hard reps followed by 10 partials so just fire absolute fire now we're going to go to leg curl and it is amazing how quickly the blood will go from your quad right into your ham our quads right now are maximally pumped they're completely full blood so we're going to go with the leg curl now and we're going to do a normal set to give the right weight the blood's going to move around the back of the leg they're going to be pumped up and then we'll do a death set on the leg so here we go two drop sets well two drops flex let your hands go flex your hands you're tired bet your hands come on come on flex your hands up one plate okay keep going flex your hands watch your hands come on flex him good good come
