शैडोइंग अभ्यास: How Strong Should a Woman Actually Be? 6 Strength Standards That Matter - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

What's up, y'all?

Welcome back to my YouTube channel.

I'm Kelly Matthews, and it's no secret that I care a lot about getting women to strength train, not only for your health right now,

but also in the long term.

And a question I get really often is, well, what should I be pushing toward?

What's my goal and how do I start?

So what I thought it would be fun to do today

is take kind of the general strength training standards for women

and what your goals should be to be you know a healthy strong woman

and put them to the test for myself

and also kind of teach you

and coach you along the way there's going to be six different standards

and i'm going to start off with the barbell back squat

so let's do it first thing

that we're going to do is the barbell back squat

and the standard that we're going to set is one time your body weight.

So exactly how much you weigh, your goal is to be able to squat that much weight.

Now I'm going to do a more advanced version for more advanced lifters

and that goal is going to be one and a half times my body weight, which is going to be a little bit more of a stretch for me, but I want it to be a challenge.

I also want to preface all of these standards with if you are not there right now, That doesn't mean that you're doing something wrong.

It's a goal.

It's a benchmark that we're setting that you can push toward.

And the best way for you to get there is by using progressive overload.

So if you are consistently doing these strength movements and you're adding weight and you're adding reps, you're going to get there.

Okay.

So we're going to get started.

I'm going I'm gonna get warmed up and I'm gonna do my best on a squat.

Obviously, when you're getting into barbell back squatting, you wanna make sure that you're doing it correctly.

If you have never barbell squatted before, a great place to start is with a goblet squat or a machine squat,

just to make sure that you have the pattern down that you're getting stronger.

Once you feel comfortable getting under the bar, a few things that you want to make sure that you're doing.

Number one is we need to get our hips at least

parallel with our knees in order for it to count as a squat.

Everybody's built a little bit differently, so if you have long femurs, you may have to adjust your equipment or your stance,

and I already have a full video on squatting if you need more information about that.

You want to make sure you're getting to parallel.

You want to be bracing so

that you're really strong through your trunk underneath the bar and obviously you need to lock out at the top.

All right y'all this is going to be the one.

We have 245 pounds loaded onto the bar.

If my math is correct I weigh about 160 pounds so one and a half times that is 240.

We're going to go a little above that because that's how we do things around here.

Our second movement is going to be the barbell bench press.

And this is one that I know many, many women avoid.

And I totally understand why.

I don't think it's a movement that girls are taught to do.

When I think of bench press, I think of like every 16 year old boy learning from their dad how to bench press

and women just don't have that same treatment.

And it really does us a disservice because benching, if anything is really freaking fun.

I love it.

If you learn how to do it well, it's an awesome exercise.

So I would encourage you guys to expand your horizons a little bit

if you haven't dipped your toe into barbell bench pressing.

So the standard for bench press is going to be 75% percent of your body weight

which is significant i'm gonna try for my body weight

so i'm gonna try for 160 pounds today that's gonna be the more advanced standard

okay this is the one we have 160 pounds on the bar this is not light for me

so i have a spot For my boy Zach here, just in case, always have a spotter if you're going close to your max.

All right.

All right, one, two, three.

Nice.

That was easier than I thought.

A few cues that you want to make sure

that you're hitting on your bench press to do it correctly is number one, the bar has to touch your chest.

Unfortunately, you want to feel that bar make contact with your chest.

You also want your feet to stay nice and flat on the floor.

What people tend to do is come up on their tiptoes, but you're actually going to generate more force with your whole foot on the floor.

And if you ever decided you want to do a powerlifting meet, you have to have those feet flat.

Okay, movement number three is going to be the deadlift.

Everybody's favorite.

I typically would barbell deadlift, but I think for this, your best option is going to be a trap bar deadlift.

It is the most user-friendly.

It's the easiest to learn.

People that are concerned about low back anything, the trap bar deadlift is going to be your girl.

Now, the standard for this is one and a half times your body weight.

That's the baseline.

And then the top end is two times your body weight, which is what I'm going to try for today.

That's pretty significant for me.

I'm going to work my way up and see how it goes, but you know, as always, we're going to do our best.

Okay.

Okay, we have 310 on the bar.

This is the heaviest I've deadlifted in quite some time.

So we're going to experience this together.

But 305 felt pretty smooth.

It moved quickly. So I'm optimistic.

Hey!

Okay!

Some cues to think about with your deadlift.

The beauty of a deadlift is you just have to pick it up and put it down.

There's not as much to it as a lot of the other lifts.

You can get really technical as you get further and further into it.

But the biggest things you want to focus on, hinging at your hips is pretty important and not turning it into a full squat.

You also want to make sure that you're bracing any of your compound lifts.

You want to be bracing through your trunk.

You can always use a lifting belt if you need a little bit more assistance there.

and you want to think about pushing the floor away, getting full extension at the top and your Gucci.

We're making our way through.

Next up, we have a barbell strict press or overhead press.

This one obviously is going to be a little bit on the lighter side because it's more difficult.

100

The standard is going to be 50% of your body weight on the slightly lower end.

101

I'm going to shoot for 75% of my body weight.

102

The higher standard listed was about 60%, but I think I can go heavier than that.

103

This one's 65% of my body weight, so this is technically the standard.

104

So if I get this,

105

I still pass, but we're still going to shoot for 120. That was really hard.

106

This is 115, right?

107

Nope.

108

Okay.

109

We didn't get 75%, but we got 65%.

110

The strict press is probably the most difficult exercise in this list.

111

Maybe outside of the pull-up.

112

Everybody hates a pull-up.

113

But the strict press is going to be something

114

that is difficult to start on because the entry level is a 45 pound bar

115

and that's fairly heavy for an overhead press.

116

So what I would suggest getting into it is dumbbell overhead presses working with the preloaded straight bars

117

that are a little bit lighter and then eventually you can work your way up.

118

But what distinguishes a strict press from a push press is that you are only using your upper body.

119

So you cannot use your legs.

120

You can't bounce through your lower body to generate any momentum.

121

So it's purely strength from your upper body.

122

Our fifth movement is the pull-up.

123

The dreaded pull-up, I know we hate them, but they are genuinely such a good measure of not only your upper body strength, your core strength, but also your grip strength,

124

which is heavily tied to longevity, and the standard is one.

125

Guys, all you have to do is get your one pull-up.

126

We're going to set the bar a little bit higher than that, and five is where I would love for you guys to push toward.

127

I'm just going to do as many as I can get in a row.

128

I will do first the overhand strict pull-up because that's technically what we're talking about here, but my suggestion would be to work primarily on a neutral grip pull-up.

129

It's going to be a little more shoulder-friendly, and you're going to find it easier to work your way up to your first one, and that's the goal at the end of the day.

130

So I'm going to do as many pull-ups as I can do.

131

I'll start with my one strict overhand pull-up, and then we'll just let it rip.

132

Let's see if I can reach.

133

Here we go.

134

Okay.

135

One overhand.

136

Let's go.

137

Done.

138

I'm sorry.

139

Nine and three quarters, we'll call it.

140

When you're trying to get your first pull up, all bets are off.

141

So I'm going to give you some form cues, but at the end of the day, just get your ass up to that bar.

142

And you can always clean it up after that.

143

But some things that you want to keep in mind are, number one, our traps really like to take over.

144

and if you end up with your shoulders up by your ears, what you want to try to do is just push them down, create some space between your earlobs and your shoulders.

145

Finding a nice hollow body position to start is great as well.

146

It will be hard to maintain, but for the long term, having a strong hollow body for all of your pull-ups is going to be really important.

147

And what that looks like is when you're hanging from the bar, you should almost look like a banana.

148

So your legs are out straight, your feet are squeezing together, your feet are slightly out in front of you, and that means that your ribs are stacked right over your hips, and that's a really good, strong pulling position.

149

We have arrived at our final exercise and our final test of the day, and it's push-ups.

150

We saved the best for last.

151

Push-ups are fun.

152

The standard is 10, and I'm going to push to get as many as I can.

153

This is another one I haven't done in a really long time.

154

I would love to think that I can get 20 reps.

155

Let's find out. so so

156

26 right 26 that's a good way to end this There you have it.

157

Those are our six strength standards for women.

158

And if you're somebody that's just getting started in the gym, these are great places for you to start.

159

And you always want to meet yourself where you're at.

160

You don't have to be at these standards right now.

161

These are goals.

162

These are things that you can work toward to make sure that you're taking good care of yourself, not only right now, but your future self as well.

163

We all want to look good.

164

We all want to build the body that we love, but we also want to keep in mind how important it is to maintain muscle mass,

165

to maintain bone density, so that we can be really strong and capable now and later in life.

166

So thank you guys so much for joining me.

167

I'll see you next time.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
