Anybody Has the Video of Cain Doing 50 Reps of Leg Extentions w 300lbs?

Found the 200 lb kettlebell swing vid



I didn't find it funny, just grabbed my lower back and shoulders through it.



LOL @ AKA.

Why the fuck would they let one of the best talents in the history of the sport use a clown like this for an S&C coach?

At the tender age of 8, Joe Grasso began his influential immersion into the world of fitness. Lifting up to 10 hours a day, it became apparent that Joe would excel physically in many aspects of life, not to mention positively impact the lives of others.

By his senior year in high school, Joe weighed in at a lean, well built 220 pounds. He possessed the admirable ability to bench the 220-pound stack 54 times, do one- armed incline bicep curls with 150 pound dumbbells, complete the mile run in 5:15, and easily run 20 miles at a 7-minute mile pace.

After high school, Joe continued heavy training, NEVER resorting to performance enhancer's such as steroids or growth hormones.

Joe even found a way to translate his talent through a career-oriented setting. He began a program of self defense which included karate, full contact martial arts, and jiu jitsu. Later, he became a police officer and specialized as a beat officer, a training officer, and a violent crime team (gang unit) detective. Joe obtained real life combat experience in the street, as he successfully handled and diffused numerous violent encounters.

In 1989, Joe emerged as the first person in United States to initiate a private, professional training facility, which leveraged into high end personal training. Joe's techniques, which he pioneered as a child, brought incredible results to clients. One of his clients shed 5-7 inches off of his waist in a mere 10 visits, while another acquired 8 pounds of lean muscle in only 3 weeks. Skeptics decried that these results were impossible to obtain, however several clients endorsed the reality of Joe's techniques and word quickly spread.

Consequently, corporate executives from around the world flew in to get trained by Joe. After achieving certification as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association and becoming an American Council On Exercise Certified Personal Trainer, Joe hired trainers to work under his tutelage.

Once professional athletes began demanding Joe's training services in 1997, he obtained his current 6,000 sq. ft. location in San Jose, CA.

Joe's success did, however, meet a brief hiatus in 2001. After suffering a faulty chiropractic manipulation of the neck, Joe was left severely paralyzed without the use of his right arm. Miraculously, spinal surgery and therapeutic strength training afforded Joe the use of his right arm again, far beyond what experienced surgeons projected for him.

By 2004, OnFitness Magazine, a premier international fitness training magazine, rated Joe's Training Facility the #1 Personal Training Facility in the USA. Since his initial opening, Joe has personally supervised and/or trained over 350,000 individual hour workout sessions.

Today, Joe Grasso Elite Training continues its longstanding history as a first-rate training facility for an eclectic range of clientele. A normal session at Joe Grasso Elite Training might very well include the neighborhood housewife and, simultaneously, the likes of a competitive UFC Champion. Silicon Valley Professionals, their spouses and children, stars from the bay area, world champion fighters, Olympic Athletes, college and high school stars, as well as people with medical needs are amoung the successful group of clients that makes Joe Grasso Elite Training a regular part of their life.
 
The trainer took it down, presumably because of how much shit they were getting for it

If you really feel the need to laugh at someone's misery that bad, then look in a mirror, and think about the fact that it's the middle of the night on Christmas Eve/Christmas, and this is the best thing you could think to do with your life

Here, I'll join you

I know Petey. I like doing leg extensions too.

It's okay, I found a backup.

 
50 reps, 300 lbs on leg extensions? Lol what a dumbass
 
Jesus Christ

I think I blew my ACL and herniated a couple discs just watching the videos in this thread
 
There's actually nothing wrong with what he's got him doing. It's extremely advanced stuff. Explosive heavy leg extensions are commonly used for kicking related sports. It's an extremely specific exercise that has high specificity carryover to kicking in combat sports, and ball kicking.

Most of you guys don't have the experience in the strength and conditioning field to understand these things and concepts. And no, the squat bench and deadlift is not the be all end all. That's minimalist powerlifting programming/ideology for novices. Intermediate and advanced powerlifters alone use way more variations and accessories, which are SPECIFIC to their goals of improving the big three. You guys don't know anything.

And YES, I am well aware of the negative stigma surrounding leg extensions. It's mostly unfounded and misunderstood.

Well, his form for the kettlebell swing is pretty awful.

350,000 hours of personal training sessions? That's forty straight years of sessions lol.

Edit: Unless he's counting massive group classes that he's trained or been in the building for.

His form is fine. His back position barely moved, despite the fact that literature shows slight rounding or extension is absolutely fine.

You're the bitch that'd rather have him do it with 25 pounds slow and controlled. Good luck trying to reap any benefits from that bitch weight.

His form is fine, he doesn't need to get the kettlebell above his head like a moron, and the heavy ass weight is going to carryover well to his explosion.

They were extremely half assed swings. Nothing to brag about. You can get pretty damn far doing it controlled and the right way. Plenty of athletes do it the right way and get great results. Your the genius in the gym doing bench press lowering the bar 3 inches and calling that a good rep, then bragging about the weight you used. Classic example of someone taking a shortcut using large weight just to impress people online.

Those sure aren't Kettlebell swings, as they originate from the hips. He's doing some kind of a modified upright row. Keep in mind, upright rows can put immense pressure on your lower back and shoulders if you ever done them with heavy weights. So we are talking about a guy who has prior shoulder and back issues and this guy is having him swing real heavy weights around like that? Right after surgery. It's no wonder Cain has back injuries and shoulder impingements.

Those swing were absolutely fine you moron

He was getting adequate hip extension (Which is really the actual purpose of the exercise)

Actually I'm a big advocate of deadstop bench presses off pins as an accessory. Even that being said, "lowering the bar 3 inches" is called a partial rep. But I'm sure you have no clue about what partials even are, nor anything in the strength and conditioning world really. Board presses are awesome BTW.

You're the guy who shrugs 225 slow and controlled with picture perfect form, and has no traps. While the smart guys understand that it's the stretch overload of the traps that can only come from heavy ass weight that builds big traps. This is why deadlifts and farmer walks build big traps, despite no shrugging component. The solution is power shrugs.

But then again, you've got no clue about any of this. Probably don't even understand the language I'm using.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about, he's barely hinging enough to get an adequate hip pop, and it looks like he's using more his back than his hips. He's also clearly using his shoulders/back to bring the weight up higher, that's why his arms are bent. It isn't his hips or back that are making the weight go up that high. You can't convince anyone that that was a good swing, sorry bud. No one believes that you know what you're talking about, only you.

Edit: Also, the point of a kettlebell swing isn't to extend your hips, it's to pop your hips explosively. That's what makes the bell travel to the correct height and it's what gives your hips a good workout.
