Here is the compiled evidence against Nether Beast Underground Muscle Shaman:
After watching the whole video, any honest, rational, sensible person can see that this presents a genuinely legitimate challenge to Nether Beast's claims about himself. Even the most diehard fan or most loyal friend of his, even if they were to give him the benefit of the doubt, if they are honest, rational, sensible people would admit that it makes sense why all of his followers who do not even know him, and know how much fraud there is in the industry, regardless of how legit Nether seems to be by his personality, that there is strong reason to doubt, and if he wants to retain his credibility, he must redo and re film the lifts properly. It is the sensible thing to do.But what was Nether's reaction (not surprisingly, due to the emotional and highly irrational nature of many new agers due to their irrational and incoherent worldview)? He responded with an erratic, emotional, irrational non-argument, complaining about how he was hurt, how he thought certain people were his real friends but weren't, how people were after him and his family, calling him with death threats, that the fitness industry was no longer for him because they couldn't handle "spiritual" people like him, and that his lifts were real and that if he would redo them, people would still find mistakes.I appeal to you, Nether, even if you are too hurt to come back, you at least owe it to people to show you weren't lying, if you care about those who believed in you, if you care about their well-being, since they believed in your advice. Plus, redoing the lifts will establish your credibility, even if you are done with YouTube fitness.

I know it is a little hard to see, especially since I just have one red Amazon Basics resistance band, which is the lowest tension and so quite thin, on, and the lighting is bad in there, even though I tried to add lighting, but all you need is a pull-up bar (I'm using the bar above my house gate) and beneath that a strong and stable thing that you can attach a band to, loop it through (again, I'm using the lowest part of my house gate and have a thick circular rope attached to that and then I loop the band through that rope). Once you have done that, you come under the pull-bar, in front of the band, pick it up, get under it (you may have to squat down a bit) while keeping the majority of the band in front of you, and pull it around the back of your neck, and very low on your neck so that it is resting on your traps. Only the top of the band should be on the back of your neck and actually low, resting on your traps. The rest of the band should be coming out in front of your body as it goes down to the ground where you attached it.

These Amazon Basics resistance bands I've shared here in the side bar of this post are actually surprisingly quite high quality and effective. They are also quite affordable. These are what I have been using. My first two I ordered were the red and black ones. I was surprise how good they worked; how innovative I could be with them in implementing them into my training; and how effective they can be. The red one broke after two years, which I went out of my way to do because I like quadrupled it up to get the most tension out of it, but which stretched it beyond far beyond its limits. I did this with the black one too but it still hasn't snapped and would be in better condition if I hadn't used it beyond what I should have, but I'm still using it. Even the snapped red one I still use. I just tied it together and use it properly and it hasn't broke further and still works fine after months more. Since after buying my first two I have bought more and they work great too and show no signs of snapping any time soon after having had them for like a year. I love these bands and they are affordable. So I definitely recommend these. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

This is what I think about people who say the"full ROM" deadlift from the floor is better for upper back and trap growth than the rack/block pull above the knee because you are going through to full range of motion, supposedly (even though full ROM is actually a deficit DL, like lifting a stone).

I think it is so freaking ignorant. The posterior chain, hams, glutes, and spinal erectors, are the limiting factor in pulls from the floor. All the traps and upper back are doing is helping to stabilize and hold the weight. They are not prime movers. Therefore they are not getting the maximum intensity and work load they could because the strength of the posterior chain in a greater moment arm limits them. But when pulling from above the knee posterior chain limitation gets pretty much completely abolished and the maximum load the upper back and traps can handle in holding and stabilizing the weight, keeping your arms attached to your body and maintaining an upright posture, is possible. You can also hold the weight at the lockout so that the traps get maximal stretch while actively contracting to fight that massive stretch to keep your arms attached to your body, and your upper back really has to fight to maintain and upright posture and not cave to such an intense load.

Basically everyone who seriously tries this lift and gets to high numbers gets mad upper back and trap gains from it. Yet, naysayers want to say it is stupid and it doesn't work when most of these guys clearly do not have even close to comparable gains from only doing pulls off of the floor.
Eric "The Bugez" Bugenhagen rack pulling above the knee
I am pretty confident that if EMG testing was done specifically for the conventional deadlift and the block/rack pull above the knee in specifically the traps, upper back, and lats, that the activation on a pull above the knee would be off the charts and soar past the pull from the floor, if we were using advanced athlete with high numbers for both pulls. Now, if we were to test the muscles of the posterior chain, glutes, hams, and spinal erectors, it would be no contest. Obviously pulling from the floor would win. But I do not see how it could be so when it comes to upper back, lats, and traps. No way, no how.
Mike "The Machine" Bruce rack pulling above the knee
Here's an awesome example what an amazing upper back and traps one can get when consistently doing heavy pulls above the knee, Nether Beast Underground Muscle Shaman's results from many years of consistently progressing in this lift:
In fact all of the guys in the photos above have made incredible gains in the upper back, lats, and traps department, and have all consistently progressed into very hheavy pulls from above the knee.So it is clear there is something very special about heavy pulls from above the knee. It is not just a gimmick as some laughable person on YouTube, who I indeed laugh at (blahahahahahahaha!!!) says. When you get advanced enough, try them for yourself before to talk smack. And the nonsense that there's too much axial loading so it is too dangerous to try excuse is nonsense. There is almost no moment arm as you are almost completely upright and the bar is very low, not on your back or shoulders, but hanging low in your hands. Barely anyone gets hurt on this lift, and those that have, went to crazy on it in the beginning and admittedly did not listen to their body, like Team3DAlpha (who also still advocates the lift). Way more people hurt their backs on the deadlift because of the huge moment arm with a relatively heavy load for such. |

A very tasty salad that my wife made for me that I ate today
The salad has grated cucumber and carrots, cut up tomatoes and onions, almonds and sunflower seeds mixed it, some broken up pieces of nippattu, and, some slight salt and red chili powder sprinkled on it and mixed in it.

GET DIRT CHEAP BUT VERY HIGH QUALITY, LONG LASTING RESISTANCE BANDS HERE:
If you enjoy this blog, PLEASE support it by purchasing your resistance bands from the image link above every time you want to buy some. I would greatly appreciate it. Resistance bands are a definitely great and legitimate way to get resistance for strength training and bodybuilding, and in many ways are actually superior. And you do not need that many (cost efficient) if you know how to use them properly to make them challenging with less bands needed. I personally use them for isolation work and weight calisthenics.
