Master Your Squats & Deadlifts
Strength isn't about how much you lift on day one; it's about how you lift it. I fix your form first, then we build the power. No shortcuts, just hard work.
A 140kg front squat is not an easy thing. This lift is excellent for building quadriceps and core strength, as the front-racked position forces you to maintain an upright torso and engage your abs.
This video shows the progression from a 20kg to a 140kg front squat. It highlights the benefits of the exercise, including exposing weaknesses, building core strength, and improving mobility.
The Zercher squat is an old-school lift that builds incredible upper back and core strength. Here I am performing reps with 120kg, showing how I incorporate unique variations to build well-rounded power.
Fitness is a journey, not a destination. This photo shows me set up for a heavy deadlift, a fundamental movement for building total-body strength, particularly in the posterior chain like your back, glutes, and hamstrings.
This is what powerlifting is all about. A heavy deadlift that tests your physical and mental limits. This lift is one of the best for developing raw, functional strength that translates to real-world tasks.
Trap bar jumps are an explosive movement that directly improves athletic performance. Here, my gym buddy and I are testing our limits with 154kg, building power that is useful for sports like basketball, football, and even martial arts.
You have to chase your dreams, one lift at a time. This clip shows different squat variations, emphasizing that the path to strength involves consistent effort and a variety of training stimuli.
About this collection
I don't just let you pile on plates until your back rounds. In our sessions, we start with a technical audit—often using frame-by-frame video analysis—to fix your bar path and spinal neutrality. If you cannot master the movement with lighter weight, you do not touch the heavy stuff. That is how we ensure results without the injury breaks.
Building Raw Strength
The squat and the deadlift are the cornerstones of my training. If you want a body that works for you in real life, you have to master these patterns.
Why Form Comes First
Many people rush to put 100kg on the bar before they know how to brace their core or keep a neutral spine. That is a one-way ticket to a layoff. I teach the back squat, front squat, and deadlift with a strict emphasis on safe, powerful technique. We break down the big lifts—snatch, clean and jerk, or heavy squats—so you understand exactly why each move matters.
My Training Philosophy
Fitness is a journey, not a destination. You will struggle, but I will be there to make sure you get up and keep going. When we train, we focus on:
- Movement Quality: Correcting imbalances through mobility screening and tempo control.
- Explosive Power: Using drills like trap bar jumps to build power that translates to real-world tasks.
- Mindset: No endless cardio or crash diets. We do the work, we track the progress, and we get stronger.
Whether you are looking for fat loss, muscle building, or just want to lift heavy without pain, my coaching is designed to get you there. If you are ready to stay consistent even when it gets tough, let’s build something solid.
