Big Mike, I have been training for years. I have incorporated some of these techniques you have put out in your videos. They have left me sore like never before. The "high-five" motion when pressing on a chest press and the "scooping" made a lot of sense when put to work. This channel has to grow, Big Mike. You deserve more subs. Thank you!
I'm not a body builder but on a path of losing weight and gaining health. I have truly enjoyed your explanations and demonstrations because they make sense. So far down just over 60 lbs. Thank you for all you do!!
Wycked...I like what you said when it comes to chest pressing machines(the mechanical arms) not touching at full extension.....im gonna use this analogy when it comes to teaching dumbbell chest presses because it absolutely makes sense! Keep the tension on the muscle and never touch!
always learning the smallest little tweaks that make the biggest difference in my training, not only for me but my clients as well! Thanks Big Man!!!!!! Keep Em Coming!
Just saw this this morning. Used the scooping technique for flys and used the same technique on hammer strength decline. Love these tips brother. Only 9 months into working out and you are helping me develop good form and habits early in my journey. Truly grateful man. Hope you had a merry Christmas and nothing but health and prosperity in the new year 💪
I really like these tutorial videos you post on the different ways to focus and train. I'd say you're the best at really explaining the movement of machines. After having 5 back surgeries your videos give me a new way of training on machines. R. I. P to Mountain dog but I'd say you two are the best.
Like the cable tips! I focused on pushing from the pinky side of my hands and it really helped the mind/muscle connection throughout the set. Definitely made a difference in the low pec engagement.
Merry Christmas big Mike, I have always done these rope with bottom now these technique with the grip looks good as always it is, your tips make the difference!!
Hey Mike, I keep hearing you tell us to fall back into our lats. But where on the lat do you want the most tension on? I always tried to fall as low into my lats as possible But that really irritates my shoulder somehow. So now when I try to sink the weight more into my upper back/lats and with your head movement technique it’s gotten a lot better, But this also makes my traps and shoulders lift upwards a bit. Just wanted to know ur take on «lowering» the weight into ur lat.
Appreciate the awesome videos and tips champ! Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t low to high Cable Flys for upper chest? Many thanks! Keep up the great content 🔥
Great video as usual Mike. But the cables from the bottom work your upper chest and I know people are going to argue that it works for lower. Because you bring it across your body and up. Please let me know what you think. Because I really feel it in my upper chest when I keep the cables close to my body
would love to see you put together a quick program for someone looking to cut a bit of stomach fat/stay fit. FYI im 5'9 athletic build and played sports my whole life and been into fitness since i was 17 (nothing wild or crazy just consistent workouts)
Mike,what’s your thoughts on Spider Curls? I used to do them with a 3ft straight bar attached to a cable/pin plate with the 90% angled preacher curl bench.
I do the same press at that height, I was doing the low ones but I feel it in my shoulders more than chest. The press at shoulder height feels good with single arm to.
Watching your videos has improved my lifting so so much I truly appreciate your content. Now I just wanna see a video of you training. I wanna see you actually work out lol
Watching Mike makes me feels like I wasted years of training. Hope these youngster take notes and get ahead now before they are in my shoes typing in this same comment 5 years later. Lol
Thx Mike for clarifying that the hammer decline handles & seat placement are all fucked up 😆. I knew it away felt awkward that I’m 6’2 & to get right angle my fuckin legs are dangling from the seat. Thx for all the content ! Love it
I literally hate those machines but have always felt my lower peck needed attention. I fell for the whole “it’s not real” bullshit too but as you just said if you feel it it’s real lol so I’ll definitely look into that decline press machine using it the way you say and see what happens, thanks man
@@MikeVanWyck absolutely man will do I’ve already took your advice with tricep extensions and of all things your calf workout 😂 and I’ll tell you what man I’m my fuckin calves are so swollen when I walk out the gym I feel like I need a damn wheelchair. So your methods definitely work, I love learning new methods to make my workouts suck that much more definitely keep the videos coming!👍🏻
Just sqeeze your arms to each other on both ways and u r dead on 1 set ❤ example on bench press try to sqeeze bar and hold that sqeeze on up and down movement . Hope u get my idea. Lov yo vids man.🙏
Merry (belated) Christmas everyone. Wishing you all the gift of good health this year!
you give the most valuable gifts
knowledge
All the best for 2022
Merry Christmas dude.. it’s fucking designed that way, maybe we should use it that way, idk 🤷🏻
😂😂😂😂

Thanks for this my frind
What I really like about Big Mikes forms is there is instant perfect tension on the muscle at the start …. Awsome
Appreciate the great content Mike!
Thanks brother
Thank you sir

Would have to see how you’re moving to tell u where to drop
Absolute good!

No such program exists. Dieting and being in a calorie deficit would be a good start
@@MikeVanWyck any recommended site or tool to determine what my daily calorie intake should be accurately ?
Merry Christmas brother
U too Brandon

Mike,what’s your thoughts on Spider Curls? I used to do them with a 3ft straight bar attached to a cable/pin plate with the 90% angled preacher curl bench.
Spider curls are great
Grabbing pec and scooping 💪
Bingo

That’s the goal to help ppl be more efficient. And stop listening to this programmed bodybuilding dogma that makes no sense
These amazing equipped brand new gyms are always empty?
Rarely empty. I’m just there early am. So it’s not busy

Laughed pretty hard when he said sorry to the machine
Thx Mike for clarifying that the hammer decline handles & seat placement are all fucked up 😆. I knew it away felt awkward that I’m 6’2 & to get right angle my fuckin legs are dangling from the seat. Thx for all the content ! Love it
Ya not sure who the engineer was that developed the hammer decline press. But dude failed
It all comes back to NO A TO B SHIT 😂😂
Bingo
