Awesome! Love hearing Kai refer to the legends of the sport and use them as examples. Torren seems like a great guy.

16:45 talks about Team Universe and turning pro and i'm very surprised that Skip La Cour placed higher than him once

thanks OP!

[whiskeyjackie]

Thanx for the video! Was really looking forward for part 2

I really like Kai's training mentality.

"It's not what it looks like across the room but what happens inside your body."

There are muscles that after 3 years of training I'm still building a mind-muscle connection to, and the latissimus dorsi is one of those. The visualization that he shares in pulling it down is something I will be using in a couple of hours when I hit the gym.

Less weight, more contraction, build that connection.

Great video !

i'm surprised torren hasn't messed his back up yet doing rows and deads like that. within a month of training when i first started i messed my back up with form like that.

poor form doesn't always lead to injuries and sometimes are absolutely neccessary

When is poor form necessary exactly?

while doing athletic moves in strongman, wrestling etc.

And yet this is bodybuilding.

Kai should read these boards, then he'd know that the guy forgetting his meals is totally fine lol.

Hmm, not a rounded lower back. Even world class strength athletes will avoid that if they can.

[AD337]

great videos.. would love to receive the opportunity to train back with Kai !!

[DanielEver]

And yet this is bodybuilding.

yet deads are being performed not only in bodybuilding routines

Rounded lower back on deads is stupid no matter where/why it's being performed.

Yeah that was so annoying in the first part watching him round his back and Kai not correcting him, but it was good to see Kai correct him in this series.

And props to the kid for being a inspiration. So much responsibility and he handles it all with no complaints and a good attitude. Great example.

branch fan?

I was just about to say some chit like that lol.

[DanielEver]

branch fan?

nope, since he constantly uses bad form with no real need in it as he doesn't train to improve any of the athletic abilities

When is a rounding of the lower back ever needed in athletic activity?

Thanks mate, all down to heavy as rowing at about a 70 degree angle. Bit of momentum, not too strict. Never round the lower back mind.

do you think grip matters? or do you think it's all down to biomechanics?

I feel the lats a lot more with an underhand but my wrists hurt wen i get over 120kg. Also worry about biceps injury so i go overhand. Old school tbar rows too, theyre awesome.

for example while trying to throw someone in martial arts, or at quick stone lifting

The kid needs to go eat and Kai stops to lecture him on the importance of having the meals ready to eat whenever he needs to, thus preventing the kid from eating when he needs to! lol!

[Groggery]

"Does that make sense?" I don't know Kai, does it?
