The problem is he’s also doing it “wrong” lmao. You don’t need to go that far down to your chest. And no I didn’t figured that out. Yannis Karrer explained that. Your Lats are fully contracted when your right on the level of your mouth or nose.

@@aarons4716well the depth at which you pull depends on your goals. If you want bigger lats, your right. You don’t need to go fully down. But if you’re semi-new to working out and focusing on stabilization (which the majority of people should be) then a full range of motion is ABSOLUTELY necessary. Unless you’ve been hitting the gym consistently for like 2-3 years already, full range is definitely necessary.

He's wrong on this. This theory that the negative is more "important" than the positive for muscle growth is wrong. There are lots of studies done where they would take group A and have them do fast reps without really worrying about the negative and group B would do less reps, but they would hold and slowly release eccentrically so that there would be more time under tension. The study concluded that Group A got better muscle growth than group B.
@@youngpbands9507 You're completely misunderstanding the point. Technique comes first. There is no serious set without paying attention to your technique and doing your best in that department. That is how you grow muscle and prevent inqury.
Wow, nice! Look at you! In all seriousness, I get more lat soreness out of close grip chin ups than any other pulling variation, tried all grips and wrist positions. Still do pronated and wide grip pulls for variations, but every time it seems like the supposedly bicep heavy pull just slams my lats
Sam sulek is definitely a scienced based lifter. He said, "Let's put as much chemicals in my body as possible like a science project and let's see if I get big." Ha
The eccentric phase in a lat machine is on the way up, when the lat starts to lenghting again, the concentric phase in case is when you pull the bar down
I’m not a gym guy at all but I stay in shape through basic weight lifting with free weights , squats etc, anytime I do any of these types of machines , lat pull down bars, cables etc, I always have a weird injury, I know I’m probably doing it wrong but my introvertness won’t allow me to ask someone to help me . That’s why I just stick to free weights and working out at home .
Makes me happy the science guy said something positive about Sam. I know I know " he's juiced up 💅" but he's obviously doing something fkn insane. My coach kicked me out n iveybeen training TF every movement since then . Pretty crazy lol I'm sore every morning AGAIM but I'll report in few Months 😅
There is actually nk research showing, negatives or eccentric contraction builds more muscle. It does and can make you more sore, thats for sure. I agree on controlling the eccentric phase. Stretch and shorten.
I completed Airborne school with a partially dislocated shoulder with nerve damage and dislocated rib. Didn't know at the time but you only need one arm to slip.
Sam Sulek is a science based lifter is not a sentence I expected to hear before he turns 30. The man is strong as hell but he launches those weights all over the place. It’s impressive as heck but about as far from science based as possible and still be effective.

How tall is Jesse? Jeff's like 5'4 and floats between 165 and 185 or so, shredded to bulked respectively. Jesse looks at least 5 10, what should the difference be in weight for at least a 6 inch height differential? To me, jeff looks like a 225 5 10 fella, only he's 5'4". In any case, Jeff's far more accomplished as a competitive bodybuilder, way more educated, much more focused on the current science and actually trains people as part of his business. It'd be stupid to assume Jesse knows anywhere near as much as Jeff nipples, and it's even more stupid to assume the biggest guy with the best genetics understands the nuances and variables of hypertrophy training more than someone who had to figure out how to grow.

@@Chris-wh8lm was more so talking about eccentrics rather than partials. I don’t know the validity behind partials and would only recommend sticking to 6-12 reps per set if you want to gain strength/hypertrophy because there is scientific evidence to back that up. If you do 12 reps to failure and then do a few partial reps, then you’re getting into the range for endurance as opposed to strength/hypertrophy.
What about when you can’t do anymore reps you pull it down halfway and hold it. I always figured that was “ripping” the muscles and strengthening them with that. Got me to where I can do as many pull ups until I get bored and stop so must have done something
