레슨 만드는 중...
1
What's up, y'all?
2
Welcome back to my YouTube channel.
3
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,
4
but also in the long term.
5
And a question I get really often is, well, what should I be pushing toward?
6
What's my goal and how do I start?
7
So what I thought it would be fun to do today
8
is take kind of the general strength training standards for women
9
and what your goals should be to be you know a healthy strong woman
10
and put them to the test for myself
11
and also kind of teach you
12
and coach you along the way there's going to be six different standards
13
and i'm going to start off with the barbell back squat
14
so let's do it first thing
15
that we're going to do is the barbell back squat
16
and the standard that we're going to set is one time your body weight.
17
So exactly how much you weigh, your goal is to be able to squat that much weight.
18
Now I'm going to do a more advanced version for more advanced lifters
19
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.
20
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.
21
It's a goal.
22
It's a benchmark that we're setting that you can push toward.
23
And the best way for you to get there is by using progressive overload.
24
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.
25
Okay.
26
So we're going to get started.
27
I'm going I'm gonna get warmed up and I'm gonna do my best on a squat.
28
Obviously, when you're getting into barbell back squatting, you wanna make sure that you're doing it correctly.
29
If you have never barbell squatted before, a great place to start is with a goblet squat or a machine squat,
30
just to make sure that you have the pattern down that you're getting stronger.
31
Once you feel comfortable getting under the bar, a few things that you want to make sure that you're doing.
32
Number one is we need to get our hips at least
33
parallel with our knees in order for it to count as a squat.
34
Everybody's built a little bit differently, so if you have long femurs, you may have to adjust your equipment or your stance,
35
and I already have a full video on squatting if you need more information about that.
36
You want to make sure you're getting to parallel.
37
You want to be bracing so
38
that you're really strong through your trunk underneath the bar and obviously you need to lock out at the top.
39
All right y'all this is going to be the one.
40
We have 245 pounds loaded onto the bar.
41
If my math is correct I weigh about 160 pounds so one and a half times that is 240.
42
We're going to go a little above that because that's how we do things around here.
43
Our second movement is going to be the barbell bench press.
44
And this is one that I know many, many women avoid.
45
And I totally understand why.
46
I don't think it's a movement that girls are taught to do.
47
When I think of bench press, I think of like every 16 year old boy learning from their dad how to bench press
48
and women just don't have that same treatment.
49
And it really does us a disservice because benching, if anything is really freaking fun.
50
I love it.
51
If you learn how to do it well, it's an awesome exercise.
52
So I would encourage you guys to expand your horizons a little bit
53
if you haven't dipped your toe into barbell bench pressing.
54
So the standard for bench press is going to be 75% percent of your body weight
55
which is significant i'm gonna try for my body weight
56
so i'm gonna try for 160 pounds today that's gonna be the more advanced standard
57
okay this is the one we have 160 pounds on the bar this is not light for me
58
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.
59
All right.
60
All right, one, two, three.
61
Nice.
62
That was easier than I thought.
63
A few cues that you want to make sure
64
that you're hitting on your bench press to do it correctly is number one, the bar has to touch your chest.
65
Unfortunately, you want to feel that bar make contact with your chest.
66
You also want your feet to stay nice and flat on the floor.
67
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.
68
And if you ever decided you want to do a powerlifting meet, you have to have those feet flat.
69
Okay, movement number three is going to be the deadlift.
70
Everybody's favorite.
71
I typically would barbell deadlift, but I think for this, your best option is going to be a trap bar deadlift.
72
It is the most user-friendly.
73
It's the easiest to learn.
74
People that are concerned about low back anything, the trap bar deadlift is going to be your girl.
75
Now, the standard for this is one and a half times your body weight.
76
That's the baseline.
77
And then the top end is two times your body weight, which is what I'm going to try for today.
78
That's pretty significant for me.
79
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.
80
Okay.
81
Okay, we have 310 on the bar.
82
This is the heaviest I've deadlifted in quite some time.
83
So we're going to experience this together.
84
But 305 felt pretty smooth.
85
It moved quickly. So I'm optimistic.
86
Hey!
87
Okay!
88
Some cues to think about with your deadlift.
89
The beauty of a deadlift is you just have to pick it up and put it down.
90
There's not as much to it as a lot of the other lifts.
91
You can get really technical as you get further and further into it.
92
But the biggest things you want to focus on, hinging at your hips is pretty important and not turning it into a full squat.
93
You also want to make sure that you're bracing any of your compound lifts.
94
You want to be bracing through your trunk.
95
You can always use a lifting belt if you need a little bit more assistance there.
96
and you want to think about pushing the floor away, getting full extension at the top and your Gucci.
97
We're making our way through.
98
Next up, we have a barbell strict press or overhead press.
99
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.
이 영상으로 말하기 연습을 해야 하는 이유는?
이번 영상에서는 여성의 힘을 키우기 위한 다양한 운동 목표에 대해 이야기하고 있습니다. 특히, 바벨 스쿼트와 벤치 프레스를 포함한 여러 운동의 기준과 방법을 배울 수 있습니다. 이러한 운동은 단순히 신체 건강을 넘어서, 자신감과 정신적인 강인함도 기를 수 있도록 도와줍니다. 영상에서 배운 내용을 바탕으로 영어 회화 연습을 하면, 운동에 대한 어휘와 표현을 늘리고, 실제 상황에서 더 자연스럽게 대화할 수 있는 기회를 가질 수 있습니다.
문맥 속 문법 및 표현
- “about” + 숫자: 킈는 “내 몸무게에 대해” 같은 표현을 사용해 목표를 설정하는 데 유용합니다. 이와 같은 방식으로 구체적인 수치를 사용하는 것은 자신의 목표를 명확하게 전달하는 데 도움을 줍니다.
- “if 문”: 주로 목표 설정 시 “만약 내가 지금 그 기준에 도달하지 못했다면…”과 같은 문형을 사용하여 자신의 상황을 설명합니다. 이러한 조건문은 실제 대화에서 가능성과 상황에 따라 언급하는 데 매우 유용합니다.
- “want to”: "나는 도전하고 싶다"라는 표현을 통해 자신의 욕구나 목표를 표현하는 데 적합하고, 다양한 상황에서 활용할 수 있습니다.
일상적인 발음 함정
영상 속에서 발음적으로 주의해야 할 부분들은 다음과 같습니다. 특히, “squat”와 “press”와 같은 단어들은 발음하기 어려울 수 있습니다. “squat”라는 단어는 ‘스궇’처럼 강조되어 발음되며, "press"는 ‘프레스’와 다르게 ‘프레’에 더 가깝게 발음되기도 합니다. 이러한 발음 차이는 영어 쉐도잉을 통해 교정할 수 있으며, нач말된 문장을 따라 하는 것이 중요합니다.
정기적으로 영어 회화 연습을 하면서, 이러한 표현과 발음을 익히면 IELTS 스피킹에서 더욱 자연스럽게 대화를 이어 나갈 수 있을 것입니다. 영어 발음 교정은 체계적인 연습이 필요하며, shadowing site를 이용해 보는 것도 효과적인 방법입니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
