Tuomas That alternate incline fly at 1:21 is awesome. I’m missing the cable crossovers at my gym and free weight flys shred my shoulder joints; but this exercise fried my upper pecs.
I'm 43 and I've had to have a few minor heart surgeries... i recently got back in to lifting.. i have to say these videos have helped so much i can't even begin to thank you enough bro.. im no spring chicken and these light weight high rep to failure movements have brought my physique back to life.. thank you.. keep them coming man
I’m almost there too. I started doing waited push-ups recently. Just seems to make my shoulders sore. The weight is going up but I’m not really seen my chest takeoff. So I got to try this. I’m sure it’s going to work. I never really do any of these movements for anything.
I mean if you can do 20 easy push ups you guys should have just moved on to a different progression by now. One leg with a twist? Archer push ups? Tuck, Planche =P I know those are not skills to take lightly but if you're bored it's because you're making it boring. It's your time, you can spend it moving however you like.
This was great! Please do more vids like this! I am older person (50-ish) out of shape, and just starting my journey to weight loss and fitness. I do not have a ton of money to join gym, I have been looking for some inexpensive/ simple weightlifting things to do at home, this does it! Keep up the great work. You explain what you are doing, how it should 'feel' and then show the form.. Perfect! Further 'at home' versions that I would love to see some for back/buttocks/legs/shoulders/recovery/balance!
You and Mike Thurston have been a real inspiration through these times. Lost my gym permanently but built my own after seeing you guys keep pumping out these vids. Thanks for all you guys do
I’ve followed Ryan for about 2 months now, from home, dumb bells, bench and bands only and have seen significant gains. I’m more focused on my workouts when a new vid is available. I’ve learned so much it’s ridiculous.
Your videos really inspire..especially choice of BG music..kicks energy to jumpstart even if we are lying on bed..you look focused and speaks the purpose
Keep these at home workouts coming, been fantastic and saving a lot of us that can’t get to the gym yet. Especially the chest variations. Great content! 🤙🏻
Ryan is my new favorite fitness expert on TH-cam. One of the main reasons is that his videos are short and to the point, no extra time wasting chatter like most other guys here that have videos that I have to fast forward through or just give up watching. Keep up the great work!!
Having anti inflammatory steroids injected in my back next week. Long time back injury finally being dealt with. Your guidance has allowed me to continue lifting at a time when everything else has failed. Thanks so much man. I liked. I subscribed. Great content!
I did this workout today along with biceps that he posted awhile back. Serious pump. I can already feel my chest is gonna hurt tomorrow...guys a genius. Being at home you don’t need to worry about looking like a dweeb while doing it. It’s only been 6 hours and my chest is already feeling sore. Gawd damn.
After watching a series of different fitness and exercise demo videos, I can tell this man really does have some really unique and, most importantly, efficient exercises up in his sleeve. For home environment these are the best tips I’ve seen so far. Thanks for sharing. You’ve got a subscriber and follower.
I'm here after i tried those and maaan, chest is destroyed AF, i never done these before, mainly that push up variation.I thought, how this can isolate my chest. Holy Moly i've never felt such a greater connection to the chest . Best fit. channel on YT.
Ryan, I came back to this video, even when I now have full access to my gym in Bulgaria. I just did the 2nd and 3rd exercises for the first time and you were absolutely right - I haven't felt anything like this before :D Thank you so much for everything that you upload! Please keep up the good work :) You have without a doubt helped me the most with my progress for the past 8-9 months :) Thank you for that :)
Jesus tiny 8lb dumbbells on the coffin press absolutely lit up my chest. Thank you for all the awesome videos, definitely one of the best on the platform
Ryan, On that first chest exercise, just watching and listening to you, I could actually feel the point when the chest stopped contracting and the delts started working without even using any weight. I now have a clearer picture of monitoring my movements to attack the right muscle. Thank You.
*So easy to use and so convenient! Awesome in space saving. However, due to its adjustable weight design, the length of the dumbell is always the same regardless of weight. (I.e. a regular 25 lbs dumbell is longer than a 10 lbs dumbell). But that really not a reason to shy away. Also kinda expensive.... but!!! Overall quality **bestgym.equipment** and ease of use and storage, you cant ask for a better dumbell.*
Ryan, do you have some advice on common mistakes that cause injury? Maybe personal experience of what happened and how you got hurt? You show us beautifully what to do, I would also like guidance on what not to do.
massive thumbs up for that first move, this one unlocked the link between moving and my chest that wasn't present before, I wasn't fully deltoid dominant but not far off. Small tip, massive difference. Thank you.
First two are great. The last one though...remember the function of the chest is to bring the upper arm across the body. Look what the upper arm is doing there - it is more like a high-to-low cable fly, but stopping quarter of the way into the rep. Instead, get into a push-up position and drop your chest slightly towards the ground by retracting the scapula. Then really concentrate on slowly moving the upper arm towards, and away from, your chest as you go up and down.
Awesome. Been trying to figure out how to truly isolate chest , especially lower chest , with just dumbbells and no bench This will definitely help. Thanks.
So as you've probably heard with every video. I am gonna try this tomorrow. We got 10's and 20 lb dumbells. I'm gonna try this out. Always great content.
I lucked out, it's my chest day today and I thought I would try these out. You were not kidding about that 2nd exercise, holy crap! My dog even got up to make sure I wasn't dying cause I sure sounded like I was. Feeling great after these exercises!
I hope so, because even when the gym is open I’m not going for a month or two. Humans are disgusting and COVID-19 hotspots are gonna pop up all over in different gyms
@@afa304 fuck yeah dude! Same here. I'm excited to eventually get back in the gym, but I'm definitely gonna hold off for a good month or two before I go back for the exact same reason. BEFORE this shit happened, I saw a bunch of nasty unsanitary shit and I highly doubt those same slobs are going to change now.
James Mac Pheators Agreed man. I worked at my college gym and got pink eye whenever we ran out of wipes. Luckily I missed the ringworm and other scares haha. But yeah, anyone who wants to go back to a gym right now needs to think twice
What? He has hundreds of thou. of views. He has made a boat load of money. Who rated his site? Who was he compared to? Where exactly did he rate? I must have missed it. Do you watch many videos? He's pretty popular.
This was a great mid morning workout. Enjoyed outlifting + seriously pissing off a few male coworkers on the job today..told them to wise up and start 'getting after it!'
I think I have a new favorite trainer. Love the super short into and total lack of hipster garbage. Even more love the deadpan humor. DB Flye opinion--arms fixed or straighten any center? Also at bottom, when you stretch. Arms stay parallel to floor and bend as you do the movement, or widen as much as possible staying fixed with slight arc? Stretch feels different.
Sweet push-up variation Ryan! If I may add to the technique, while pushing up into the arc movement, if you walk your toes up two small tip toes up then back out on the way down, it really engages the chest! I seen your toes sliding so I walked them instead, big pump! Keep'em coming bro!
Fantastic, Ryan, and thanks for all you do. I'd like to ask again: Can you give us an idea of sets and reps. Most of us don't have an hour or more a day to do resistance 🅰🅽🅳 cardio 5 or 6 times a week. What would you say 🅷🅰🆂 to be done each workout? I work each body part 2x a weeks followed by running a mile. 12 sets a week per body part? 16? Thanks very much!
this vid was great! recently found your channel - all the videos i have seen have been really great - i've liked that you dial in on micro movements by using lighter weight or positioning or hand placement- i think those are the under focused on things in any youtube body building/exercise/ training channel. good stuff!
Ryan. Loving the exercises! Can you create a vlog on sets, reps and frequency during a week please. We can then plan our workouts with what you have shown us.
Try an archer style push-up with one hand on a stair and one on the floor. Allows you to bring the arm that’s elevated on the stair across midline of your torso, great contraction.
If you get bored in lockdown, how about a training live stream? I think that if you organised it well then it could be a great opportunity for people to learn and even ask questions in the live chat which would make it easier to understand or get some tips. Also, there's more to learn about training than just exercises, right? You could also use the live stream to explain why you chose the exercises and why they're in that order. Great video!
Not gonna lie, I've been adding the press exercise where you squeeze the dumbbells together into my chest routine. I've never felt the burn in the middle of my chest like I do after a few sets of these
This guy is pretty much the savior of my gains during this quarantine.
Amen to that!!
Sameeeeee
you know it bro
Tuomas That alternate incline fly at 1:21 is awesome. I’m missing the cable crossovers at my gym and free weight flys shred my shoulder joints; but this exercise fried my upper pecs.
Mine too. I like that he gets to the point and gives options if you don’t feel it.
I appreciate the added time showing the movements and from different angles!
I'm 43 and I've had to have a few minor heart surgeries... i recently got back in to lifting.. i have to say these videos have helped so much i can't even begin to thank you enough bro.. im no spring chicken and these light weight high rep to failure movements have brought my physique back to life.. thank you.. keep them coming man
Damn this dude is getting even bigger in quarantine.
Cody that’s what tren does
He’s trening very hard
He is just closer to the camera
@Max Max I dont think he is juicing but not sure
@Max Max actually, looking at those traps, he might be, but still-not sure
This is exactly what I've been looking for! I get bored of just doing pushups all the time
So sick of pushups
I’m almost there too. I started doing waited push-ups recently. Just seems to make my shoulders sore. The weight is going up but I’m not really seen my chest takeoff. So I got to try this. I’m sure it’s going to work. I never really do any of these movements for anything.

I’ve followed Ryan for about 2 months now, from home, dumb bells, bench and bands only and have seen significant gains. I’m more focused on my workouts when a new vid is available. I’ve learned so much it’s ridiculous.
As usual, the decor is very tasteful, the guy is stunning and the excercises are intelligent. A very well produced video.
Best bodybuilding channel on TH-cam in my opinion Ryan is the real deal. Many thanks for all these gems for gains again and again.
Hitting this tomorrow Ryan you’re the home workout don.
Same
Please keep doing these creative at home workouts. So many people are stuck with very little equipment. Your videos are PRICELESS!
Your videos really inspire..especially choice of BG music..kicks energy to jumpstart even if we are lying on bed..you look focused and speaks the purpose
Watched this video June 28 and Washington state gyms are still closed. Thanks to Ryan I am still gaining
Just when I realized how lost I was in my home workouts you put back on the path may the gains ever be in your favor !
Keep these at home workouts coming, been fantastic and saving a lot of us that can’t get to the gym yet. Especially the chest variations. Great content! 🤙🏻

I have never had better mind muscle connection until trying these movements. Brilliant content and will keep them even when the gyms reopen
This will be my Tomorrow chest day 👍 Greetings from Italy🇮🇹
bro love these short informative videos sooooo much
Having anti inflammatory steroids injected in my back next week. Long time back injury finally being dealt with. Your guidance has allowed me to continue lifting at a time when everything else has failed. Thanks so much man. I liked. I subscribed. Great content!
So many people are now training from home with a micro gym eben after quarantine is lifted, so any training at home options are great

After discovering YOUR channel?
Yours is the ONLY one that is gospel to me.

quick, straight to the point. He obviously practices what he preaches. Love this guy. Man I'd like o work out with him one day.
I've been watching a lot of 'home gains' programmes - this is by far the most intelligent/useful I've seen. Great content, thanks man!
At 60, this guy is definitely the reason for my gains the last few months! Thanks again Ryan.
The last few months? Are you sick?
Ryan Humiston, you are the bomb
Big arms for sure, good tips ,but he did not even get a sweat on?

I learn form and technique every time I watch these videos.
Back in lockdown, youre the only thing saving my gains Ryan
Dope. Hitting chest tomorrow. Will try all three.

I have the older version of those powerblocks, I love it when people do videos with this equipment!!!
Ryan's tips have got me nothing but great results, I'm anxious to use these exercises on my chest day. Thanks Ryan's !
Best workout videos on the internet. ❤️
Since this mess started and no gym, I needed something to stay in shape! Thank you!

Most underrated fitness TH-camr
What? He has hundreds of thou. of views. He has made a boat load of money. Who rated his site? Who was he compared to? Where exactly did he rate? I must have missed it. Do you watch many videos? He's pretty popular.
I did the previous chest exercises and I was sore after. Can't wait to try this one.
This was a great mid morning workout. Enjoyed outlifting + seriously pissing off a few male coworkers on the job today..told them to wise up and start 'getting after it!'
I just tried these 3 workouts and I'm gassed. Thank you. Get after it get going 💯✊🏼
Wow these are some really underrated movements. Thanks, Ryan!
He really just saved my Chest though. 💪🏼
I'm gonna try these...my chest workout has been press ups so I'm all over this. Great video, great tips 👍
Another winner. Thanks, Ryan
Thanks Ryan! Gonna do this right now!
Clear and concise again. Thank you sir.
Work out Gods be praised!!!! This actually found me on chest day!
I like your videos because your general attitude is F what anyone thinks listed to your body and get a great workout
I think I have a new favorite trainer. Love the super short into and total lack of hipster garbage. Even more love the deadpan humor. DB Flye opinion--arms fixed or straighten any center? Also at bottom, when you stretch. Arms stay parallel to floor and bend as you do the movement, or widen as much as possible staying fixed with slight arc? Stretch feels different.
Great push up variation, hurts like hell so must be doing something right
That was a great video on angle variations with the dumbbells and pushups
Thanks for these tips Ryan! That last push ups killed my chest!
Thanks for the awesome quarantine vid. Rockin the powerblocks dumbells. Love it! These have saved my fitness since my gym closed. They rock!!
Sweet push-up variation Ryan! If I may add to the technique, while pushing up into the arc movement, if you walk your toes up two small tip toes up then back out on the way down, it really engages the chest! I seen your toes sliding so I walked them instead, big pump! Keep'em coming bro!

Love this guy he bucks the traditional norms
I tried it , so great , good results, thank you
Next dumbell forearm workout pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
I'd like to see a video doing exercises with resistance bands covering more upper and lower body exercises

Thanks Ryan. Between you and Athlean-x I getting in great shape at 54 👍🏾
The upward motion with dumbbells mimics the cable upward motion.
Amazing! Loving the coffin press 👍
Deserves so many more subs!!! Love your workouts man keep it up! 👍🏼
Great video, might be good to add the weights you’ve using with your compound PBs. Just so we know what sort of weight we should be aiming for.
2nd time do this routine. Love it!
Sigh.. really misses gym workouts... so what to do... just follow ur routine here.. thanks for those uploads... cheers.
Very well covered and explained,you are the champ. Thanks
The similarity between my arms and Ryan's: both connected to body at shoulder. (The End)
Try an archer style push-up with one hand on a stair and one on the floor. Allows you to bring the arm that’s elevated on the stair across midline of your torso, great contraction.

Would love to see a more detailed version of the nutrition guide you put out a few days ago.
Thank you for all this information.

Never give up.

I'll use these exercises today, with my push workout
Not gonna lie, I've been adding the press exercise where you squeeze the dumbbells together into my chest routine. I've never felt the burn in the middle of my chest like I do after a few sets of these
