Hey everybody, it’s Jason Blaha here representing Jason Blaha Strength and Fitness. And once again, it’s time for another full body workout. But a quick reminder, if you guys will please click like down below, be greatly appreciated. If you’re not following or subscribed, please do so. And if you’ll be kind enough to drop me a comment down below, I’d appreciate it so much. Uh, so I decided to do everything beltless today. You know, I’d kind of even said, you know, I could wait till we continue to get leaner, the skin gets a little tighter around the waist. Um, but you know what? I really kind of want to stick to the ideals of saying, “Look, I used to love to do beltless training, right? Used to love to do beltless training. Um, used to love to do everything raw. Promoted it a lot in the past in different phases. I’ve always like to do phases of it. And, you know, I’m doing all the running and everything else without shoes. I might as well do this.” Um, you know, and again, it’s always this fighting is going to really accentuate all that, but that’s okay. Just going to get in and train. Um, all right. Disclaimer, 405 was really hard beltless. Not gonna lie. This was heavy. It might as well have been 500 pounds. So, I’m going to have to work with the beltless training. It’s like I was not expecting 405 to feel like that. So, because I pretty much I’m high barring it. So, it was a high bar squat, no belt. I’m going to have to build that up. Like I felt weak. So, kind of goes to show how much we get out of things like belts, right? It shows how much we get out of them because I hit a 455 squat that looked a little cleaner than that the other day, week or so ago. Now, granted, I’ve been running. That’s not an excuse because that’s all, you know, done in a way that shouldn’t have a problem. Um, so I’m going to have to get real used to that beltless high bar type squatting again. And, uh, you know what? I’ll squat 500 that that way one day. One day I’m going to squat 500 lb coming up here older without a belt. I’ve done 485 high bar without a belt in a me before. By the way, for the record, 481 laughs at that. I’ve done it. You guys have seen me squat close to 500 without a belt multiple times also on camera. But in official in meet, I’ve done 220 kg without one. Um, so again, kind of did the the side chest stuff so we can see how that stuff’s coming along. Um, so I did the the benching I’ve been doing. I’m not trying to go all out maxes at the moment. I’m trying to just get good quality singles with a long pause. So 335. I did 350 on this not long ago. Right. A couple weeks back we did 350, but it was really really grindy. This isn’t super grindy. These are real close to a max, but I’m leaving a little bit in the tank. Um, so happy with that. Uh, beltless deadlift. I’m like, let’s just grab 500. Okay. Not used to doing without a belt. Everything felt the tea. My whole back was really fatigued from doing that squat. So, I’m like, let’s just get a nice clean 500 without a belt and we’ll call it there. But, at the very least, we can hit the BadBot Strength Standard beltless. So, we’re in a good place. So, afterwards, we did box jumps. Um, just did three sets of these. I want to start working in a little more of these, maybe even on my off day some. Um, but again, getting getting more proficient at jumping. Again, it will carry over to the squatting. I do have to really get used really get used to that beltlist. Got to work on that depth. I was I was uh looking at that. I’m like, we barely made depth on that squat. But again, to be expected, I’m just not used to the beltless squatting. I will get there again. I mean, context wasn’t a couple years back even on here. Um I did like 405 for five reps without a belt, by the way. So, we need we need to get back to that level. So, that’s going to be the next goal. Let’s get that that dialed in. Then get to the 425 without a belt. I need to get them deeper. I need them prettier and then we’ll work it up from there. Just doing the singles. I just got to get used to it. But I feel like the sled work, the the jumping, all that will continue to carry over. I do need to get used to the running. It may be a factor, too. But we’re not going to stop doing it. So, we’re going to run here later today, too. All right. Dips. This is PRs with this for getting these deep dead stop out of the bottom and going well below parallel. I haven’t done six reps with 90 pounds yet, but we’ve been working these up. Um, I got three sets of six. Pretty happy with that. And mainly that first rep is so hard because I, if you guys notice, I’m doing it really the hard way. This is such a legit there’s just no way to cheat, right? You come out of that bottom position. I’m setting the bars to where I pretty much have to pull myself up into the into the dip bar. That first rep is pretty much like deadlifting it out of the bottom out of the full stretch position because I’m getting into it, leaning all the way into it and then coming up. So, I’m leaning into my full deepest stretch and then doing the first rep all the way to a lockout. It’s so humbling. But man, does it feel good. I feel like it’s been working wonders for my benching though. The chest and tricep activation is just absolutely phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal. And you guys saw the other post. I did it on both platforms. So, you’re either going to see this on the tubes or on Facebook. I did the post earlier on the lockout stuff. You guys know my stuff on that. I I’ve talked about it in blogs and streams and people are missing it. It’s in a community tab post. I’ve even had someone argue in the community tab. Well, I don’t think I’m like, well, I do. Sorry. you don’t have my history in life and don’t know all of it. I’m telling you, I’m sure it’s the biceps and it’s also because I can’t even lock them on the overhead like the hang stuff. So, the dips though felt really good and those were all failure sets. Like I’ I’ve reached failure on that last rep. We got 3×6 with the 90 pounds. That dip strength from that deep position is going up and I feel like the benching is getting easier. Those 335 long pause benches are getting easier and easier and easier. um pull-ups. I’m like, let’s do a neutral grip today because I don’t feel like I don’t feel like I need to do the rows. And I’m doing full pronated closed grip. I’m just doing sets on the off days of these just body weight. So, I do feel like a little bit different angle wouldn’t hurt. So, I decided to come in and do a neutral grip. Kind of that medium grip because I do it close grip sometimes, but that medium really a good spot. Like it’ll give me also decent bicep development, arm development to go with the back. And I’m like, let’s grab a 45. I managed to get sixes on all of them. And then obviously I couldn’t get more. These are your limit sets. Um, so I got three sets of six with the 45. I’ll take it. I’d love to get these stronger with the neutral grip. Let’s just keep working it, right? And just get more and more and more proficient at pull-ups again because they’ll improve your physique overall. So again, pull-ups and dips will build a tremendous upper body. Even BPAC was saying that the other. I read a whole article where he said the same thing. I found it like people had mentioned it and I didn’t see anything but everyone’s like he said it but then it came literally through my feed on Google out of nowhere without me searching for it like right in my little news feed. So, all right. Overhead pressing. I can’t do lockouts with a barbell, but I’m like I wonder if I can at least do neutral grip rep work. Let’s get a start. I need to overhead press something something. We have to do something as we work on that with the with the bicep and the shoulder. So, that’s very easy on the shoulder joint. Uh doing just like that neutral grip. Just grab some dumbbells. I’m like, let me just clean them up and go to failure. 28 for 12s. I mean, that’s humbling, but I still can’t fully do the range of motion. That is so humbling, right? But we’re going to rebuild that overhead press because my incline and stuff is real strong right now. Like we’ve tested it recently, benching 350 pause. I’m getting strong on the way to dips. I’ll get that overhead press back. I just got to restore that range of motion. But when we do, I’m going to strict press 225 plus again. It is going to happen. Period. All right, sled work. We start off with a walk and then we sprint it on the way back. Um, doing it all without shoes now. Yeah, my feet are definitely getting dirty there. I had to go I got to wash them after. Same thing. I’m going to go run without shoes here in a bit because that’s what we do. It’s how we do it on team blog, guys. Um, but yeah, the sled work. This is my conditioning and then so I really have three different modalities, don’t we? All right. For the cardio, I do the sled work, which is my higher intensity, especially the sprinting with it. The jogging is my medium intensity and then the bike is my list because I do like hours one hour at a time roughly. So that’s my list. So we have three different types of cardio modality. The lifting is the same way. You know we have the jumping counts. It’s it’s really I guess it’s resistance. So jumping is my explosiveness, but I do heavy singles and we do rep work for hypertrophy. This gives me a lot of my hypertrophy for the legs on top of that. But we’re hitting all those modalities, right? We’re hitting all those modalities. Um, and again, little bit of car in the way with this, but that’s okay. It happens. Uh, no idea who they are. Never seen them before, but um, you know, so finished it up though. Of course, they pulled in there, but we still get me on the camera. So, we still managed to get me on the sprint back in spite of that. So, heck yeah. Happy with that. So, really happy with today’s workout. So, I hope it’s been informative, and I’ll talk to you guys and gals next time.

  2. I need to get that neutral grip bar for my rogue rack. I haven’t seen it on their site tho

  3. That's my goal too! 225. My all time is 215. Fortunately I was able to still Power Clean and Strict Press 200 the other day for a single
    Pressing while cutting is TOUGH for sure lol
    But we got it 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

  4. Great workout coach, loving the dumbell presses! Overhead press would be insane for your physique!

  5. Its crazy how some people say they dont get much out of belts. I think its much harder beltless

  6. When your body adapts to the running and you’re able to do 5ks with ease you’ll find your recovery for training volume is insane and you’ll finish your workouts wanting to do more exercises
