Step 1 - Take your max, multiply by a factor of 2.1 Step 2 - Apply the weight to the bar without clips Step 3 - Thumb over bar Step 4 - Reap the results
Thank you, I was trying to wrap my head around what was the name of the stretch as well Goes to show that I've lost so much knowledge from my qualification days Thank you put it up
@@theneonpythonEric has said multiple times that he has nothing against Jeff as a person just doesnt agree with what he preaches. As an ex wrestler i doubt putting hands on a smaller guy would even cross Erics mind
Brian Shaw uses a power plate Was working in a hospital gym for doctors and nurses And the power plate came out, all the research was done on rehab and mobility for older people Don't believe in the research that it helps with muscle development But I do believe it helps with mobility, as it has virtually 0 impact on the joints and tendons Have small one in my home gym, really helps with my posture as not as mobile as I used to be And I used it for thorough warm up, special considering the injuries I've got I love the machine
You’re in a for the ride of your life, brother. Definitely start old videos first so you can getter more immersed into the lore. Although it may be fun to hear a reference in a newer video and then later discover where it came from when you stumble upon the original
PNF stretching is what I believe you were talking about Also thanks again for showing me the fat grip bench press has never been easier to warming up and just changing the bar for more variety Mr.Spice!
I’m currently coming back from a substantial hip injury. I’d been taking it easy for a few months doing the pt and all that. Today I decided I was gonna give it a real hoist and heave. I had never deadlifted above 150 before injuring myself but had worked up to rdl with 135 for reps. I just kept doing singles for behind the back deadlift and got to 245 which I got on video. I’m so pumped
The stretch you are referring to is the GTO reflex, basically when you're stretching or having a high contraction on the muscles, after a while the contractions will be too great for the muscle forcing the receptors to signal the brain to override and relax the muscles. It's a safety thing for a high contraction but for stretching once you hit that threshold it will allow you to get a little more active ROM since the muscle relaxed.
I agree with the mustache thing. I joined the air force in 2011 and had the Stache from then on. Joined the fire dept in 2016 can only have a stache. Have recently got rid of the stache after 14 years due to its popularity among the hipster crowd.
I know you were thinking about getting back into freestyle wrestling again a few months ago. You should get ready for a jiu jitsu match. I think it would be great content.
And PNF stretching is beneficial for after training or anytime when your muscles are thoroughly warmed up which would also include immediately after static stretching which it also not be done until your muscles are warm so also good after training
Eric, About that axle DL - Check Martins Licis video with Odd Haugen and strongman from Africa. They are using weird bars in DL - very strong grip and DL. Video is called " THIS GUY HAS THE STRONGEST GRIP IN THE WORLD - IRON BIBY "
I also like to do cable cross overs on bench press days as my beginning chest warmup. I figure I’ll warm up my pressing movement during the actual bench press; might as well get a deep chest stretch during my warmup.
My old gym had a power plate. I was probably the guy who used it, most just used by ladies lol but I actually really liked it before and after leg day.
I think there’s some truth to the power plate. I think it’s good for improving flexibility, specifically for someone who is super tight, if you already keep up pretty good with your flexibility and mobility work it’s a piece of junk to you, but for many of us tight lifters I think it’s great, I’ve certainly felt a difference. How much of a difference? Maybe a small percentage, but I think doing it regularly will create improvement over time. My mentality is, can’t hurt to do it for a couple of minutes preworkout.
Yeah I got to like 315 on bench and I just stopped because I boxed for years and I don't want to have tight shoulders. I mostly used strength in my legs to leverage the weight off my chest. Need to keep the elasticity for elastic recoil and use the stretch shorten cycle to develop a harder punch. Ended up doing 225 for 27 reps though.
I think Mike made a video or it was part of a video about how he was part of study how the vibrating thing allows you to stretch better and that's all it's good for
Vic Tanny the original gym mogul pioneered these vibration machines. It works on the same principle as the Wim Hoff method of cold exposure to cause shivering, which releases succinate in fat cells which increases mitochondrial biogenesis to cause more fat burning.
The type of stretching you were talking about (I think?) was called PNF stretching, I also remember it being big in that time period. Edit: Nevermind, he mentioned it when he got at the bench lmao
What grade of meniscal tear did you have? I have grade 2, was told I don’t need surgery and I also feel the same way. But sometimes it gets really irritated for a few days
When I decide to keep my mustache, TJSizzle decides to shave loll Ever since I kept my mustache, I was able to hoist heave heavy loads. There is some serious power behind having facial hair !!

Shake weights alone got me to a 405 bench
Really? They got one of my forearms jacked and succulent, but the other one is atrophied.

I mean. Hes bi-sexual. what do you expect?
Wow, you must be really new to lifting if you don't yet understand the importance of a loose ass for benching heavy
13:10 "I havent benched in centuries" means "I benched 2 days ago"
Seconds feel like years when you're aching to go benching
Next you'll be telling me that bench press will take my tip to the next level 🤯

Literally made me laugh out loud when he did that hahaha

It's a blessing to see you having enjoyment over strongman implements.
Step 1 - Take your max, multiply by a factor of 2.1

The only thing reaping here is the reaper
Science based advice
If you do this you'll immediately hit your peak becuase you won't be alive afterwards to hit a better PR
You have to apply clips so that you can’t escape the impending doom of the horse load being thrust upon your chest
I’ll take the Boogz vs Mike Vanwyck any day of the week.

You are referring to PNF Stretching. My college football strength coach had us do them. You feel great after!

Goes to show that I've lost so much knowledge from my qualification days
Thank you put it up
The greatest youtube channel uploads again, rejoice fellas.
Sensei Stick! I felt the earth shake a few states over after the weight droped from that bench press!
This does explain the increased seismic activity.

Brian Shaw uses a power plate
Was working in a hospital gym for doctors and nurses
And the power plate came out,
all the research was done on rehab and mobility for older people
Don't believe in the research that it helps with muscle development
But I do believe it helps with mobility, as it has virtually 0 impact on the joints and tendons
Have small one in my home gym,
really helps with my posture as not as mobile as I used to be
And I used it for thorough warm up, special considering the injuries I've got
I love the machine
Just discovered this guy, everything he says is gold...now commence the bingewatching every video during my cardio
Jujimufu Eric bugenhagen videos. Oldest first.
You’re in a for the ride of your life, brother. Definitely start old videos first so you can getter more immersed into the lore.
Although it may be fun to hear a reference in a newer video and then later discover where it came from when you stumble upon the original
be careful with cardio, its a dangerous drug. Take it too far and you might end up a pencilneck
First time watching your working out video. Love the “straight man” routine form your wife in response to your energy.😂 super fun

More of this content!
Holy Buckets Ricky, you’re becoming a yoga master with all these stretches
When he starts with calm, cool, collected “alright, so, fellas…” instead of a loud, boisterous, thunderous “ALRIGHT FELLAS!”, you know it’s serious
eric can you do a video on mentality on trying to come back from serious injury. id really like to hear your thoughts
I feel the same about the stache. I've been rocking one for 8ish years, and seeing them become "fashionable" now really rustles my jimmies!
8:00 isometric stretching
I really like this style of video, hope you do more!
Brian Shaw also uses the shake thing to stretch. It really helps with stretching a lot! The other stuff it claims are bullshit on the other side.
The stretch you are referring to is the GTO reflex, basically when you're stretching or having a high contraction on the muscles, after a while the contractions will be too great for the muscle forcing the receptors to signal the brain to override and relax the muscles. It's a safety thing for a high contraction but for stretching once you hit that threshold it will allow you to get a little more active ROM since the muscle relaxed.
ALRIGHT FELLAS
STICKY RICKY a lot of truth to the slow reps being incorporated for max tension / loading CNS. The multiple pauses mid rep adds a lot
Love you Eric wishing you support
Dude you’re awesome. Maybe reach out to Jeff and see how he’s doing. Kind of ease things a little.
For that stretching thing.. I remember terms like "contract relax" and "myo release stretch" or it might be something different :D
I agree with the mustache thing. I joined the air force in 2011 and had the Stache from then on. Joined the fire dept in 2016 can only have a stache. Have recently got rid of the stache after 14 years due to its popularity among the hipster crowd.
I know you were thinking about getting back into freestyle wrestling again a few months ago. You should get ready for a jiu jitsu match. I think it would be great content.
Damn that was an impressive bench, wasn’t expecting such a hefty load
Waiting on the Bugenhagen and Associates analysis of the van wyck assault on Dr.Nipples.
That massage gun said "No Diddy" 🤣🤣🤣.
Post the roadmap to 18 inch biceps ricky
(I’m aware sticky has 26 inch arms)
Ive benched 430 at 190 I still crave these bench tidbits
Ill try on my next session tomorrow, im ready to horsecock some serious steel and iron
And PNF stretching is beneficial for after training or anytime when your muscles are thoroughly warmed up which would also include immediately after static stretching which it also not be done until your muscles are warm so also good after training

Very important points about stretching thx

They are using weird bars in DL - very strong grip and DL.

" THIS GUY HAS THE STRONGEST GRIP IN THE WORLD - IRON BIBY "
No,I feel exactly the same- Dr. SizzLe.
Most science based video yet.

I also like to do cable cross overs on bench press days as my beginning chest warmup. I figure I’ll warm up my pressing movement during the actual bench press; might as well get a deep chest stretch during my warmup.
Also I think you grew a mustache by the end of the video.

People get mad at the Broccoli hair youngsters at the gym but there paying our bills watching our content lol 😆
Doing pause bench and 4sec eccentrics seems to be voodoo magic on bench press.
Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is a stretching technique that can improve your range of motion. 💪💪
I think Mike made a video or it was part of a video about how he was part of study how the vibrating thing allows you to stretch better and that's all it's good for
The content I signed up for. You should also add the link to your store to TH-cam.
This man makes me gigidy
Killer rep at the end
Looks like im going back to the gym today for a second chest session
“What’re you freakin’ smirking at” 🧐 😂
Eric, are you referring to C.R.A.C (Contract/relax/ antagonistic contract)? That is a very effective way to enhance flexibility
Holy buckets I’m early
WE are early BRUVVAR
king! ty for the advice mr sizzle 🎉
Vic Tanny the original gym mogul pioneered these vibration machines. It works on the same principle as the Wim Hoff method of cold exposure to cause shivering, which releases succinate in fat cells which increases mitochondrial biogenesis to cause more fat burning.
Dude watching you hit 4 plates gave the nod of approval lol

Chest day got my man in a philosophical mood 🎉🎉🎉
I approve of you saying arse instead of ass 🇬🇧
Hey Rick. I just got a mild tear to the muscle belly of my pectoral. Do you have any idea how long it'll be before i can get back to training hard?
What grade of meniscal tear did you have? I have grade 2, was told I don’t need surgery and I also feel the same way. But sometimes it gets really irritated for a few days
Yoga mastermind! I frickin knew it!
"Is it a meme Sticky Ricky? Kinda yeah. Also no." Wise words.
Sticky Ricky probably means shutting of the golgi reflex. Happens as well when you hold a static stretch for 20-30 seconds.
