Hey Jeff , could you please make a vidio on cardiac arrest happens while doing exercises in gym, nowadays death rates are increased in gym while working out .. some says due to bad supplyments , some says extreme level of workout ...your analysis on this will help us to prevent such mistakes in future 👍 Thanks
@@devduttmalakar7454 it's a horrible side effectnof the 💉💉💉. It would be informative to know how to avoided getting to that point if you did get the 💉.
I was doing regular pullups and parallel grip pullups but none of them really made my lats flare out like I wanted, THEN I started watching Jeff's videos about getting the elbow behind your back so I started doing wide grip chinups and single arm band (or cable) rows focusing on getting my elbow behind my back and now my lats are much more developed now then ever before, but I still have more developing to do but it's been a major improvement, thank you Jeff
Wide grip pullup targets teres major more. You don't just want elbows behind body but also close to body. That's why a chinup will allow you to do that. Lean back a bit to allow more arm extension.
One thing I’ve been experimenting with is doing pause pull-ups and weighted chin ups. These have been seriously challenging my lats and I think they’re gonna get me great results!
Perfect timing for this back anatomy & motion very necessary for me. Thanks for staying in contact over the years, I keep your coaching in my downloads, thanks again man😅 Brock
A video about scoliosis would be helpful! Many athletes use one side of their body more than the other and eventually it becomes their dominant side. I think scoliosis causes problems because of the dominant side. So, my question is, how can we manage this issue?
Do more volume on the weak side and do unilateral movements to reduce the difference in power, if you do X weight on both sides the weak side will work harder and get brought up to the stronger side.
usually scoliosis or other back problems are due to weak lats. best exercise is the chinup or pullup for it. your body will recover itself if you strengthen your back, even if its not unilateral
How can a person suffering from SCOLIOSIS strengthen their back especially their lower back without risking any sort of injury? What excercises & stretches could you recommend Jeff? Love your content ❤️
Jeff has said to hang with your toes touching the floor for one minute every morning so that your back can stretch without tightening itself to support your full weight. He didn't mention scoliosis but I have been told I was just 1° shy of having scoliosis and it has been helping me.
@@Decoder2040 I have severe scoliosis, I've been hanging on my pull-up bar for one minute in the morning and throughout the day. I also work my abs and core after a workout. I can say this works my back feels great and my posture is improving, or the alternative is back surgery and possibly becoming paralyzed.
*Only hard work give results! Thank you man. After watching you for almost 2 years I started my own fitness channel. And this is my real passion now. Hope one day I will help people like u man* Hello from Ukraine!
Hi Jeff, Over a period of time you have helped me make a mind to muscle connection, with nearly all muscles but I do all the exercises in this video & can not connect with the part of the lat going down my side, I only feel it in the highest part of my Triceps. Pull Scapulas back & down, nothing, I'd love it to go as far as my Seratus, which will help my recovering Rotator Cuffs apparently... .... Thank you...
Gees is there a limit to this guy's brilliance in this field of expertise? No wonder Ive encountered hate from other Wana be trainers like this arrogant guy on TikTok. Don't even remember his name but he called Jeff a cheat and accused him of being disingenuine to say the very least. Smh too much pride out there on the web. Jeff has been, is, and always will be my honest and generous, and most knowledgeable source for all that is human muscle. So far I admittedly am I leach like subscriber, but ik in the near future I'll be able to put my money where my mouth is and be a paid subscriber. It will be worth every cent. This genuine man is a God send and provided the knowledge and visual examples for every human being to live happier, healthier, more productive lives. God bless Jeff Cavalier!
Great videos. I learned a lot about correctly working out and follow you for years now. One thing I have to write though. I believe that you have it wrong on diets. I have ditched all carbs, vegetables and fruits and am Carnivore for the last 5 month’s. My physique has changed dramatically and my performances are incredible. I am 56 years old. Last week I received the results of my blood and urine tests back and they are perfect! I look and feel better than in the last 30 years. I urge you to take diet seriously and start looking at what you SHOULD eat and not at what you CAN eat. Thanks for all your videos and the good work!
Nope, you're wrong. You can eat however you want. As long as it: 1. Is healthy 2. Help you achieve your goal (lose/gain weight, maintenance) 3. You can eat like this consistently, for the rest of your life.
"I urge you to take diet seriously and start looking at what you SHOULD eat and not at what you CAN eat." _What a general statement, you're saying vegetables and fruits are bad?
That's a shredded lower back bro. I have had surgery there before, l2-l3, any exercises i can utilize to not only get a great aesthetic lower back (much like yourself) but a healthy one too? Or did you create a video on this already?
I have found one-arm cables to be the most effective lat exercise for me. Best stretch, longest 'pull', best results. However, it is necessary to take a break from them from time-to-time. They are simply too intense to do continuously.
Hey Jeff, do you still stand behind some of your older programs, such as AX1 and 2? Would you ever consider updating those to include some of the more current science or knowledge that you have spoken about in the past couple years about training?
Hey Jeff, can you show us how to utilize effective reps during body weight exercises or can you show us how use dynamic stretching within the workout with body weight exercises?
Dynamic stretch before workout for warmup and injury prevention. Static stretch after workout or before bed for recovery. You can do 30s dynamic stretch between set.
In your workout plans, many of the exercises call for hitting failure around 12. Do you recommend strictly sticking to what the program calls for, or is it ok to lower the weight with increased reps while targeting better ROM?
Hey Jeff i’ve been having trouble with triceps tendonitis,what should i do should i countinue training or not or just change my routine and the way i do my exercises. Thanks a lot
Hello Jeff. What rest pauses between series do you recommend to hipertrofy ? Thank you very much for your videos and recommendations 🙏🏻 keep Up the good work 🙌🏼
Reinforcing the importance of full stretch and full contraction🙏❤🔥that one arm standing high row.. also one of my favorite exercises ever😅 bold statement but true
I believe that there are main two reasons why lats won't grow: (1) the wrong exercises and (2) misalignment, e.g., postural/structural misalignment. Obviously, the wrong exercises won't work. But when you have misalignment, the right exercises won't work either because the misalignment will prevent you from performing them correctly. In other words, if you're not moving correctly, it's the same as doing a different exercise, i.e., the wrong exercise.
Jeezz, seeing Jeff workout makes me wanna get back to the gym. Since working as an arborist and making long days I haven’t got energy to get back at it.
I’ve been watching and learning a lot from your videos over the past 10 months and I’m making good progress; lost 36lbs of fat and getting fitter and stronger all the time. I have a nutrition question; if I’m tracking macros, should I be counting the sugar in milk (lactose)? The reason I ask is because I’m lactose intolerant so my understanding is that my body can’t process it and it will just “pass through”, therefore no point counting it? Excellent channel 👍🏻
"People with lactose intolerance are unable to fully digest the sugar (lactose) in milk. As a result, they have diarrhea, gas and bloating after eating or drinking dairy products."
Honestly I've always had better results using less weight and stricter control just like this video suggests. You lose so much with that little bit of momentum you fanagle when lifting heavy. The good news is..........yes you'll have to drop the weight but you'll find that you're slowly racking it back up again very quickly as you gain new strength from the more disciplined range of motion.
Thanks Jeff. I picked up the Dumbbell Tripod Row you show in one of your other lat videos. I don't have any cables in my gym. I have a bench and freeweights. Do any of your other videos show ways to grow lats without cables? Thanks - Gary
Hey Jeff, ive been watching your videos since years before i hit gym and it really did helped me alot. I want to ask that if stress belly/cortisol belly really a thing? Ive been trying to loose fat for more than 2 months now and i have lost around 3 kgs, but it appears as if im loosing fat from all over my body but not from my belly. I still have a pot belly same as before. I would really appreciate if you could help me out here. Thanks alot and i surely would remain as your follower for rest of my fitness journey❤
Are you working your abs enough? Weighted crunches or similar exercises 3 to 5 times per week might be necessary. Also, how is your diet? It's a polarizing subject, but consider 1) If you don't get enough protein, or cut too many calories, your body is going think you are in a famine and become hyper-efficient, clinging to every ounce of energy you consume 2) If you are eating too much sugar (i.e. bread is the same as sugar to your body) or food that is irritating your gut (whole grains wreck your gut), you are inevitably encouraging hormones that make your body store fat in the midsection. Remember, though, we evolved to store fat on our midsection first so we could have fat stores for winter whike still being able to run. Hope this helps.
@@Decoder2040 I work my abs for like 1-2x per week not more than that as i cant really see my abs through my fat i just work them for core strength purpose. As researches and jeffs videos show that abs workout doesnt co-relate with bell fat loss i never really did abs for fat loss purpose. And aboit my diet, i mostly eat whole foods like chicken, beef, rice, oats etc. And i track my food intake properly. im having minimum 100g of protein (on 62kg of BW) and im around deficit of 2-300 cals. So im not really getting what part am i doing wrong. Appreciating for your effort of reply :)

Hey Jeff, there a lat pulldown machine that operates with weight plates and i feel like they have little to no momentum goes into pulling them down. I was wondering how effective those are. Thanks
Jeff workout advice needed please. Due to my work schedule I've had to spilt my time in the gym up. I get two slots of 1/2hr. One before work and one after. How should I plan my workouts. I thought do a normal push pull legs but spilt it in half. What do you suggest?
@@samueltwaites5517 Then split it, try to do 1-2 muscle groups exercises and finish the others next time. Example: Do chest first then shoulder, tricep later. Do back first then bicep later. Do quad first then hamstring, glute later. But you gotta spend time warming up before every workout.
See I’ve never understood why my lats don’t grow. I do the workout and reps correctly and I’ve had my form checked by several trainers and nothing. The only activation I feel is in the center of my back/traps no lats ever. Though this vid, as always, is helpful, it still doesn’t give me an answer 😔
Hi Jeff sir, I have been training for around 2 months But neither do I feel the lats during pulldowns Nor I feel the chest during chest press and dumble flies And I also have some pain in the left shoulder during barbell squats Kindly suggest me what am I doing wrong and how to correct them Thank you
First time at gym tomorrow Not gona lie feel abit paranoid about going tomorrow but first obstacles is to beat that and just get in there early rise early start
Hey Jeff, first of all great video. Can you do a back workout program for those of us who have a back injury? I have slipped disc L5 S1 and ever since my injury I rarely train my lower back. Can you please help
Mine didn't grow because my forearms would fail before my lats(the 3-4 sec eccentric were killing the forearms) . Just using straps/hooks and then doinf separate grip/forearm excersizes really helped this. I could have also pre exhausted the muscle, but I don't wanna 😂😂😅
Where did u get that blue Tricep rope I keep seeing in ur videos? I can’t find anything like it. Mine isn’t bad but I think I’d like the material on urs better.

Tried a lot of exercise and lower trap training and posterior capsule release with no obvious result. btw I have no pain and no restricted ROM or any scapular problem, it's just cosmetically issue that my back muscles look great with my shoulder but there's still a bone popped out like hell.

How to cure injured serratus anterior due to heavy lifting or overuse I think . It's paining while breathing and lifting my arm. But I could lift heavy with that pain . 70 lbs per hand
Jeff, do we have to retract our shoulder blades while doing single arm lat-pull down (or any other exercise in order to make it lat focused)? Please let me know.
When it comes to back training all you need is a vertical pull and a horizontal pull. The only exercises you need are Pullups, barbell bent-over rows, seated rows and dumbell pullovers, an important aspect of back training is also to remember to pull with your elbows and CONTROL THE ECCENTRIC when back training
1. This is a lats video 2. Limiting the exercises you can do is limiting your gains. Your lats ain't running up and down, for example on the right side, the lats run southwest to northeast, attach from your thoracic vertebral to humerous. That's why if you wanna follow the fiber, you gonna need to add rotation like the rocking pulldown or 1-Arm High Cable Row.
Hi Jeff, thanks again for the video. I don’t have access to a gym but do have bands and dumbbells. Is it possible to adapt these exercises and techniques using the limited equipment I have at home.
Hey if you get his elast x program I received jacked with it... elast x was all band work outs and jacked was all dumbell... not sure ifit was a promo or not but worth the money if your looking for that type of program

@@Decoder2040 I work my abs for like 1-2x per week not more than that as i cant really see my abs through my fat i just work them for core strength purpose. As researches and jeffs videos show that abs workout doesnt co-relate with bell fat loss i never really did abs for fat loss purpose. And aboit my diet, i mostly eat whole foods like chicken, beef, rice, oats etc. And i track my food intake properly. im having minimum 100g of protein (on 62kg of BW) and im around deficit of 2-300 cals. So im not really getting what part am i doing wrong. Appreciating for your effort of reply :)

You can't spot target fat. You gotta keep reducing fat for the whole body.

My lats grow bigger and bigger friend!!
My lats had *fascia adhesions* …a few very painful scraping ‘Gua Sha’ treatments later and they started to grow on their own!
Sternum pain. For about 3 months now I've not been able to do pushing chest exercises and some abbreviations work because of sternum sharp pain. No idea where it came from but google talks about types of tendonitis in the ribs. Any thoughts or tips on this?
Thanks OG!
Hey Jeff, there a lat pulldown machine that operates with weight plates and i feel like they have little to no momentum goes into pulling them down. I was wondering how effective those are. Thanks
Jeff workout advice needed please. Due to my work schedule I've had to spilt my time in the gym up. I get two slots of 1/2hr. One before work and one after. How should I plan my workouts. I thought do a normal push pull legs but spilt it in half. What do you suggest?
If you train at home, do you have more time for 1 workout?
@@nomnomyourmom good question. No. My office is next to the gym so I travel there workout then go straight to work.
@@samueltwaites5517
Then split it, try to do 1-2 muscle groups exercises and finish the others next time.
Example:
Do chest first then shoulder, tricep later.
Do back first then bicep later.
Do quad first then hamstring, glute later.
But you gotta spend time warming up before every workout.
@@nomnomyourmom cheers I agree that might be the best way of doing it. Thanks for the help. Its appreciated
See I’ve never understood why my lats don’t grow. I do the workout and reps correctly and I’ve had my form checked by several trainers and nothing. The only activation I feel is in the center of my back/traps no lats ever. Though this vid, as always, is helpful, it still doesn’t give me an answer 😔
When can we expect the next 100 workout on the series?
Do a video on Back THICKNESS
Hi Jeff sir,
I have been training for around 2 months
But neither do I feel the lats during pulldowns
Nor I feel the chest during chest press and dumble flies
And I also have some pain in the left shoulder during barbell squats
Kindly suggest me what am I doing wrong and how to correct them
Thank you
maybe it's because u got bad form so u work other muscles, that happened to me aswell :'(
Are you doing bench flies?
Front squat or back squat?
@@Marcels_ what's the remedy then ?
@@nomnomyourmom yes it pains somewhere in the deltoids when I do this movements, idk the reason

Hey Jeff, first of all great video. Can you do a back workout program for those of us who have a back injury? I have slipped disc L5 S1 and ever since my injury I rarely train my lower back. Can you please help
Watch Low Back Pain and Working Out (IMPORTANT!!) - ATHLEAN
Mine didn't grow because my forearms would fail before my lats(the 3-4 sec eccentric were killing the forearms) . Just using straps/hooks and then doinf separate grip/forearm excersizes really helped this.
I could have also pre exhausted the muscle, but I don't wanna 😂😂😅
Where did u get that blue Tricep rope I keep seeing in ur videos? I can’t find anything like it. Mine isn’t bad but I think I’d like the material on urs better.
How to fix the anterior tipped scapula?
I'm a student of physiotherapy and I have that lower angle of scapula popped out.
Tried a lot of exercise and lower trap training and posterior capsule release with no obvious result. btw I have no pain and no restricted ROM or any scapular problem, it's just cosmetically issue that my back muscles look great with my shoulder but there's still a bone popped out like hell. I hope you answer me I really trust you and you're such an inspiration for me ❤️
strengthen serratus anterior
@@nightmarecenhic3988 dude, it's strong af 😂 .. I have no winged scapula it's just that angle that I mentioned. I appreciate your caring 🙏

When trying to fix posture as detailed in the 22 day routine video, should I be doing any kind of exercising/cardio during those days or wait until I've reached the end of the 22 days?
of course you need to train at the same time bro
and you keep fixing your posture even after 22 days
Can I pls do a follow along full body workout?
For chest press momentum u can bounce the weight of ur chest

You need to take insulin, which is what you get when visiting the doctor
Please make a video on lat MMC.
I hardly feel my left lats.
I wonder if i have some spinal deformity.
you probably have a dominant side or its just normal since soreness doesnt indicate muscle growth
How to cure injured serratus anterior due to heavy lifting or overuse I think . It's paining while breathing and lifting my arm. But I could lift heavy with that pain . 70 lbs per hand
Jeff, do we have to retract our shoulder blades while doing single arm lat-pull down (or any other exercise in order to make it lat focused)? Please let me know.
Retract on concentric, let it protract on eccentric
When it comes to back training all you need is a vertical pull and a horizontal pull. The only exercises you need are Pullups, barbell bent-over rows, seated rows and dumbell pullovers, an important aspect of back training is also to remember to pull with your elbows and CONTROL THE ECCENTRIC when back training
1. This is a lats video
2. Limiting the exercises you can do is limiting your gains.
Your lats ain't running up and down, for example on the right side, the lats run southwest to northeast, attach from your thoracic vertebral to humerous.
That's why if you wanna follow the fiber, you gonna need to add rotation like the rocking pulldown or 1-Arm High Cable Row.
Jeff's back looks like a map of a mountain range
Thanks for this video Jeff, we've learned a lat
Great info ❤️

Check out Jeff's at-home bodyweight program that he put out during the lockdowns: th-cam.com/video/vc1E5CfRfos/w-d-xo.html
Hey if you get his elast x program I received jacked with it... elast x was all band work outs and jacked was all dumbell... not sure ifit was a promo or not but worth the money if your looking for that type of program
@@MM-overtime thanks will check them out
Do you have any options for in home training for lats? I don’t have the pull down bar. I’m also a newbie.
Put a broomstick over 2 chairs and do inverted row
