It's not how much weight you can lift.
its less pounds and more reps

Who cares if he's using fake weights to demonstrate how you lift, does it really matter mate? If he's telling wrong techniques then that matter, if not then stop making such bullshit fake weights call out cause it sounds so stupid

You have 20 followers and Jeff has millions. Crawl back in your cave and hibernate for a few years.

Why do they even make fake weights?

I think everyone is wasting their time jabbering about who uses fake weights. It looks to me like a bunch of guys are trying to cut into Jeff's profits and scoop up any crumbs that fall off the table.

It's simple really… if you're trying to convince someone that you're lifting (insert weight) when you're actually not then you're in the wrong… I have no problem with someone using fake weights to demonstrate form or technique etc… I mean think about it, what if someone is trying to demonstrate form breakdown over time… you really think they're going to do that with the actual weight and risk hurting themselves? It'd be dumb… but if they're banging out 50 reps without breaking a sweat and that weight is supposedly 7tons… you get the idea

His Channel is based on form and techniques and in prevention of injuries while lifting and training. His not trying impress anyone with how much he can lift and I if he did his channel would be based on attempting weight lifting challenges.

I don’t understand why influencers are deciding to rip one another,
The fitness industry is savage enough without bellends discrediting credibility!!
Jeff is one of the best, always will be, so get the fuck over yourself, carry on with your life and let Jeff carry on with his, I mean honestly you look like a proper twat taking on Jeffs knowledge

Who cares… I certainly don't. Love the video's and have gained lots of knowledge by watching them. That having said I've to admit that I never even checked how much weight he had on the bar. If it wasn't for this video I would've never noticed probably. 😎 And obviously no one can go full force with 80 reps.

Jeff Cavalier is the man!! And while we’re on the subject, Jeff Nippard is better than whoever this guy is.

Jeff Jeff Jeff Jeff Jeff Jeff. Gonna start using fake weights too. I'll shred better like Jeff maybe. Thanks Scott. You showed us how to be like Jeff finally.

I think he just uses fake weights cuz he’s not really training in his videos, he’s just showing us how to properly do exereices

Who cares??? He has the education and real world experience. It makes for better TV to see more weights on the bar. Haters gonna hate. You can't beat success.

When you look like Jeff ripped as he is then you can talk to me about Jeff using fake weights.
Plus listening to you is like listening to a woman unhappy her friend is prettier then her. Get over it.
If your as good as you think you are then show it by doing it to your own body then people may listen. Tearing Jeff down makes you look like a cry baby. Man up!

Idk man, Jeff could be that strong. Being shorter also "shortens" the distance he needs to move the weight. He's probably just jealous of his better physique

Thanks should be given to Jeff, so that you have enough content to have a YouTube account.

John Pater December 3, 2021 - 4:53 am

I agree with Scott on 2 counts here.

1) Jeff is selling a fitness programme and supplement package. Fake weights… so what else is fake, I don’t need any snake oil thanks.

2) Jeff’s videos have a production value – so to make educational points and demonstrate technique you may choose props over 20kg plates.

The problem I have is… when do production value and visuals misrepresent products you are peddling. Fine line and needs honesty. The honest way is Scott’s I think.

Scott – following you on social media for some time, but never subscribed here on youtube. I really appreciate this honest commentary on this situation. What a stand up guy. Your advise and Jeff's advice are still science based and about good natural fitness… I will still follow both of you, fake weights or not, because I care about healthy, productive fitness! Thank you both!

It's funny how so many people are threatened by Jeff so they feel the need to criticize him. Is it really helping your views? Jeff is much older and way more ripped than you.
You just lost a follower.

Has anyone thought fake weights are just illustration purpose for ease off movement in a youtube video try lifting heavy and talk same time it don't make a good video lol

Reply
cliff December 29, 2021 - 12:13 pm

He is supposed to use fake weights in some of the video's. Think about.
If he is making video's every day. Sometimes he might have to redo the video's. He would not have any energy left to other things.
These guys look great, better then average. They must be doing at least some things right.
Only problem i have with this is that they should explain or come clear that they are using fake weights some times

SilentMott December 29, 2021 - 2:03 pm

Late to the game on this holy shit. Those lifts were 100% fake. I'm Jeff's approximate size, there's no way in hell those heavy lifts would look that effortless. But Jeff legit gives good advice anyway.
