I think I’ll speak for everybody. We just love your content. I love how you explain it. It makes sense. Very technical. Enjoy every video you make. Would like to see more on chess and chest movements and what exact muscles do they work. Thanks for all your videos.
Could you make a video on wrist flexion? The same way some people struggle with knee over toe, my wrists don't like to bend and it makes stuff like pushups hurt
Grab small dumbbells and do your push ups on those. Or parallettes. Or on your fists, instead of open hands. Otherwise train your wrists the same way he tells you to train everything else: progressively
I also have a cue on what to not do when bench pressing. Do NOT lift your head when you lower the bar, it's useless and you have a chance to close your cage, which will make you weaker
i do those pauses while raising my hands over head, aswell as internal and external rotations on the cable machine, then I finish my 4 sets of bent over db rows and then I get to benching.
I assume you are referring to DDD in your back. You will want to both stretch and strengthen the muscles and joints without adding vertical compression. For stretching try cat-camel and pullup bar hangs for decompression. For strengthening focus on bodyweight stabilization exercises like Dead Bug and Planks for now. Eventually you can progress to weighted rows and pulldowns.
Ive been dealing with shoudler tendinitis and pain for so long now, doing the exercices this channel show helps with pain for 3 weeks now, but it does not completely go away, any suggestions ?
Is activation of a muscle before an exercise where you use that muscle necessary? Or would this only be advisable for the individual who seems to have an issue with that muscle or area? Kinda dont want to "activate" hundreds of muscles before a full body workout
Warm ups are important. If you walked into the gym totally cold and just started hitting hard sets near your max load you are increasing risk of injury greatly. Alot of people just warm up with a handful of reps and a handful of sets with lighter weight than their working sets. But yeah you should be doing some kind of warmup and or some kind of dynamic stretching
There are some warmups that do activate a lot of muscles, so you can just do a few rather than a whole workout just to activate them. Check out "world's best stretch" as an example, it'll cover a bunch of muscles
There is no supportive evidence for this practice. I would only recommend this for people with lagging injuries. A regular warm up in the exercise with progressively heavier weight is the best and most time efficient thing to do
Whatever you need. Definitley chest and shoulder days at least. I do it on back days too. But this is just a warm up. You can do actual strengthening work if you need it and he has videos about that too. But this is just a targeted warm up for benching and heavy pressing movements (again i also do it before heavy pulling movements too”
I tried this as a warm up as I have an injured rotator cuff, and it made it so much worse. I strongly advise anyone with something similar to not do this as a warm up, but to do it as a general strengthening exercise the day after or day before tou do chest. I couldnt work out for 2 weeks after trying this as my shoulder was in agony. For those of you without injured rotator cuffs, it probably is quite handy to warm this up 😂
You likely need to spend a couple months letting your rotator cuff heal. I hurt mine bad when I first started lifting, just did dumbbell press for a few months until my rotator cuff chilled out. Stay safe.
@tommysanchez4757 wasn't from lifting sadly, it was an injury from playing tennis when I was 12, I'm 25 now. It's manageable at the moment, I just need to be careful with it as sadly no amount of time will heal it, I spent a couple years out the gym and it's still dodgy 😆
He was just showing footage of an alternative way to do the same exercise. I do both. Band at home before i leave for the gym and then cables for about 10mins to get warm. Has been working well for a few months
Shout out @eedghill123 for the opening stitched video, @muscleandmotion for the anatomy graphics.
Eff warming up your rotator cuffs, immediately go for your one rep max with no spotter on an empty gym Sunday night
Thats what i do every sunday night and now 50 lbs heavier, pure muscle
Are you okay 🤣🤣
I think I'll take your sound advice good sir
Dont forget to leave the clips on 😂
Just joking dont do it
May as well ask your crush out before that 😢
Just casually dropping gems
Thanks coach

Thank you for all your videos.. I've greatly improved because of your information.
He's also allowing the elbow to move back and forth which means the rear delt is taking over and very little rotation of the humerus is even happening
Exactly!
Yep. Even that little bit of movement makes a big impact on how well you're warming up the correct muscles.
I think we need more videos of you talking about infaspinatus muscle, period !!!
Love these short vids loaded with crucial wisdom!!!!

Check out the hub for wrist flexion
Always learing from you. Appreciate it
This is absolute gold!
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏿
Using the band in that way felt great. Didn't realize how weak both of my shoulders really are
I also have a cue on what to not do when bench pressing. Do NOT lift your head when you lower the bar, it's useless and you have a chance to close your cage, which will make you weaker
Nice. Thanks for all the tips and help. My workouts are always improving due to your videos.😊
Keep your head on the bench. Yw
That wall art is awesome
Busted (loop) bands are perfect for this if you break 1 or a few
If you need to know anything about how the body works, this is the man👍
You can just make a set or two of light weights, deeper movements in the excersise you wanna do. That's also called warm up and it's pretty enough ;)
You do that as well. We're trying to minimize injury & train efficiently thru life.
Some people are just naturally strong. Do you, you're not other people
You dont need bands just good very solid tension.
Also, use a rolled up towel under your upper arm to elevate your shoulder to 45 degrees.
I warmup the rotator cuff and then max out on the barbell row before hand. Works great.
THANKYOU
i do those pauses while raising my hands over head, aswell as internal and external rotations on the cable machine, then I finish my 4 sets of bent over db rows and then I get to benching.

Really need to know some good exercises and or stretches for myself who have Degenerative Disc Disease “DDD”
I assume you are referring to DDD in your back.

Unless you have shoulder issuses, this is not the best warm up ! Just do 1-2 light warm up sets of bench

GYAAAAT
This was a big Aha moment for me. Made a big difference!
Must be the reason my shoulders always hurt so much, I really need to properly warm them up!
Big ah 🥷
What software do you use for the human body anatomy visualizations?
Tell me the purpose of the head elevating as the weight comes down again? I’ll wait
Lose of stability for less force production 😅. A bad habit that people pick up
This should be done daily, in chest / shoulder days or what?
Whatever you need. Definitley chest and shoulder days at least. I do it on back days too. But this is just a warm up. You can do actual strengthening work if you need it and he has videos about that too. But this is just a targeted warm up for benching and heavy pressing movements (again i also do it before heavy pulling movements too”
Does this also help improve Dumbell curls? Because I've been struggling with my left shoulder when doing curls.
😲😲bro's 10years old looking like Arny😲😲
How many reps should we do ?
Casual rotator kup reps
Why can't he also just do static holds at the end of the external rotation on cable machine too, rather than having to get out a band for this?
"We need pauses, whether using a band or a cable machine"......
@@gregorypierre1319 so my point stands. Just do pauses at the end of each rep of the external rotations in the clip shown
Bro face: 🌝
Actually he's doing well. The science guy said the same thing, to use cable and not dumbell
You're right, but he did mention a pause as being important for stabilisation
Ive never seen 44lbs weights before
I thought your elbow has to stay on your side as if you are squeezing a towel
StabilityUniversity
Every day
Why not just use your warmup sets as your ... Warmup?
who is that but the video?
Absolutely stunning 😻
Your style is impeccable!
Since when has a plate been 44 lbs 🤨
The body has so many small muscles to focus on

@Pinhead___Larry that's so sad to hear. See pt
❤
The mistake he did is his haircut.
I think he's doing fine he just repped 140 kg
Not the point, ego lifter.
Just because the dude is naturally built like an oak tree and plays with 3 plates doesn't mean he has all the answers. lmao
Oh. Imma skip to that chapter in your book.
Those plates aren't looking real to me at all
Have you even been to a gym?
@@TheFlintriemen I'm an intermediate lifter. I haven't seen plates before that are flat on one side and they are moving too much
annoying music = down vote
Sooo all he had to do was pause on the rep. A band isn't actually needed.
Bands are safer and allow you to work on symmetry/coordination of both shoulders.
He was just showing footage of an alternative way to do the same exercise. I do both. Band at home before i leave for the gym and then cables for about 10mins to get warm. Has been working well for a few months
