    Dex is legit the nicest most chill dude in the game and Kai takes them stories to a wholllee nother level. this is great

    Kai is very descriptive. I love how he tells stories

    • @Xxskaterdude554xX
      @Xxskaterdude554xX 8 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Kai wouldn't be the megastar that he is if he just gave simple "yes" or "no" answers to everything. His enthusiasm and liveliness are what make him who he is.

    • @PosiVibes_Hub
      @PosiVibes_Hub 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      and every answer is so philosophical. He's amazing man. It's cool to see both greats interacting the way they are

      Eve Lynn exactly. He’s so good to listen too. Always excited himself and he can make things sound interesting. And he’s really adorable from inside. At least seems like. 😊

    Epic chat between Dexter and Kai about the machine training vs free weights etc. Loved it.

  • @JMBBproject
    @JMBBproject 8 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    That is why Kai is so polite to his fans and loves them that much. Because he knows exactly what it feels like when you get motivation from an idol!

    • @Daedalus

      GoldCurency o If Kai has motivated or inspired this person, it's not unusual for them to want good things to happen to said motivator/inspiration.

  • @ShadomanG
    @ShadomanG 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Uncle Dex, man. Simply extraordinary to have competed within 3 generations. Not only competing, but still within the top 5 most years. Love when a younger man listen's & open's his ears up to new knowledge. Ego aside, even a man w/Kai's pedigree who is not an upcoming bodybuilder & has a HOF resume in his own right. Salute

  • @rhodey4759
    @rhodey4759 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    can't do anything but love these 2 gentlemen. For me Dexter Jackson is the best. Just as Kai said he has been there with the best in their prime and Dexter is still one of the best in the world. Longevity in this game is very rare, he is truly blessed and an amazing athlete

    Ass to Grass is Bs - Dexter 2017
    I always knew that was risky but to hear it from the Blade, that should be taken highly.

    • @shuvamoydas6223
      @shuvamoydas6223 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Samuela Marayawa Have you ever seen Dexter Jackson doing ass to grass squat? Dexter is a champion and a legendary bodybuilder but that doesn't mean he knows everything. Giving ass to grass squat bad name when you have hardly done them with proper technique is just simply wrong. Half or parallel squat is what does most damage to your knees than full squat. Anyway its upto you what you believe but i will say its not ass to grass that damage your knees but a lot of other stuff like bad form, poor mobility, lifting more weight than your body can handle.

    • @awkwardgecko2853
      @awkwardgecko2853 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Shuvamoy Das are you stupid ? The safest is parralel...i also squat ass to the grass but knees gettin fucked up and its not necessary...

    • @Imranayaaz
      @Imranayaaz 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ass to grass is damaging to knees and im taking that on board all the way from a 47 yr old ifbb pro who's been in the game the last bodybuilder standing king of longevity, take all the advice you can get from these guys we are very lucky to have youtube in this era

    • @sanjunumo
      @sanjunumo 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Shuvamoy Das are you freaking kindling me bro? You should know about ligaments more bro. The engagemant is increased along with the Range of Motion. Past the parallel, the engagement shifts from the Quadriceps to the other parts as well. Thus deep squats are more emphasised to engage other muscles like Glutes and hamstrings. Done well, parallel squats can be tougher than the deeper ones because it only engages a single musclegroup and it is almost an isolation. (Just like Leg Curl in comparison to Deadlift). And the joint feel more stress the more extensive the movement is. However Deep squats can be good in various other aspects as overall strength and also in excercising other muscles near Quads.
      The pain in the Knees is mostly because of the form. If you let your knees go forward. And the problaity increase the deeper you go.
      Thanks and Regards. Hope it helps.

    Kai is so respectful for dex. When that guy brought up kais diet close to the show he said "todays about dex", Very respectful

  • @markt4385
    @markt4385 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    What a classic interview and video! These two guys are a class act... Still can't believe Dexter looking like this after such a long time in the business and at his age. He hit the nail on the head when he talked about lifting heavy weights and longevity; ironically, I watched the Ronnie Coleman video about his physical condition after his last surgery... Very sad to see him in such terrible condition, but my prayers are with him and for Dexter to win.

  • @UpfrontGen216
    @UpfrontGen216 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I've known who both of these guys were but I never bothered to watch any videos of Kai because his physique wasn't my style but he seems like such a cool and humble dude

    Wow! This so hard to watch yet at the same fun to watch because I know all of these guys. Kai and I go back since he was 19 training at 5th Ave Gym in Bklyn, we later ran into each other in Jacksonville when I moved there. Lol, I would often rum into Dexter, we would talk for a good while, we were always cool with each other and he always encouraging! George Farah, Wow! we competed against each other as middle weights so we go back, gosh early 90s! Steve Weinburger, he was my NPC District Judge reppin NYC, so I've know Steve for years! I used to train at he and his wife the famous Bev Francis! At their gym in Long Island, but when it was Gold's Gym now it's Powerhouse. This was awesome to watch, this is what I miss the most being with my own peers!

    You can tell Dexter is incredibly excited about the current state of his career/physique, which is really cool. Good for him he deserves it. I really started to be a fan of Dexter after seeing the 2000 or 2001 Arnold. True legend.

      K.B. Peterson Dexter was an extreme ectomorph. it took Dexter 10 years to get big from 1990 till about 2000. Yes he has insane genetics, but it took him a decade to put on all that mass

  • @drexelstar
    @drexelstar 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Boy I really hope Kai has dealt with all the demons and has a year of straight focus and intensity to really challenge Phil this year. He's got to be able to become that killer on the stage and not the nice guy, because that won't beat Phil. Dexter, what can I say, he's the face of my generation of body builders. Sure you had Dorian, Ronnie, Jay, Phil, but when the fire is out and the smoke settles, Dexter is right there on stage usually in the top 3. Phil, Dorian, Jay, Ronnie (well maybe not Ronnie) all competed solely in the Olympia. But Dex, man Dex competed in EVERYTHING. To me he was the embodiment of Arnold in the sense that neither really had an off season, it was the way they lived, and their genetics allowed it. Anyway loved the vid, love Kai, love Dex, good luck to everybody this year in all the competitions, and here's to Kai's comeback!
