Ed Coan, the greatest powerlifter of all time, talks through and demonstrates his favorite assistance exercises for the squat and deadlift.
Ed covers:
– How he performs stiff legged deadlifts to develop the hamstrings and back.
– How he performs bent over rows to develop different parts of the back.
– His preferred exercise for improving grip and core strength for the deadlift.

Video was awesome
why do you use a barbell for the grip and not a dumbbell is it just because
dumbbells don’t go heavy enough
This is pure gold for powerlifters. You can tell even guys like Mark who
have over two decades of experience are learning. I am sure that likely is
true because even in recent videos now and then I still see Mark and Mike
use some of what Coan covers here. That isn’t true of every person I see on
here as they always seem to have fun, but often just play with their peers
rather than this which was practically a seminar.
That grip exercise looks awesome, should that be done with back after all
of the heavy deadlifts or another day when your grip hasn’t been strained
so much?
what edd can don’t know about powerlifting ain’t worth knowing the pioneer
of the sport untouchable in his days and pound for pound by far the
strongest in the game .have you seen his 180kg shoulder press unbelievable
one way to summon him up .the greatest power lifter ever no holds barred
the man squats300 kg raw to this day who says little man can’t lift he’s in
the land of the giants I grew up watching edd that’s what got me in to
power lifting Edd’s a legend and as made his mark in the sport god bless
him.
“Nice ass Ed”
ed coan parents allowed him to never have a job.
whats the intro song?
LOOOOL so two plates deficit deads is bullshit ? it’s time for the change
then… shit.
do what works for you….best tip ever! keep it up smelly.
This channel is a gold mine
I would absolutely love to work out for a day with Mr. Coan. He’s an
absolute wealth of knowledge.
Great series. Learning a lot. Great to learn from a legend like Mr Coan!
How do I get these shirts
4:00
This intro was amazing even the song is just inspirational
Wow marks face is so much less bloated here
Mike looks like a little baby mouse
With the SL Deads it seems like the bar is too far away from his shins and
his lower back is rounded as fuck. Is this proper form?
“Compared to a 15 year old fat girl”. You just got roasted
Mark Chaillet used to do an assistance exercise called High Pulls. Any of
you guys ever do any of those. Mark used to have this motto, If you want
your Deads to go up, Deadlift! LOL
Who in hell disliked this video? Ed Coan is not only pound for pound the
best powerlifter of all time, but he is also a very sympathetic, humble
fellow !
SILENT MIKE HOLY SHIT DOES HE LOOK DIFFERENT
why are his hands so disproportionately big? no troll, but is it because of
the growth hormones and such?
I have learned more about lifting from these guys and this series than i
have from my high school weight room and 10 yrs in a commercial gym. When i
need gear I usually buy it from them because of that. Just wan to say
thanks, you guys do a lot for the community.
i love the way Ed just lays it out
