Matt you are the best brother, always great content and always simple and I like simple and basic exercises! I appreciate the fancy stuff but it's just not for me. Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to the new book as I have 5 in my library already!
These videos are by far my favourite videos you ever put it out, those principles-based discussions. Whenever these videos are posted, there is much to digest for the next several months. Really enjoy this elevating discourse.
The best physique I developed in my life was when I focused on just push-ups and pull-ups for months... I would do deadlifts, curls and bench press sometimes in between, but mostly it was endless sets and reps of push-ups and pull-ups, and my upper body blew up... And often I didn't spend more than 30 Minutes in the gym, because I had become so good at those two exercises. Nutrition was crucial too. And even here I kept it simple: Turkey and chicken cut into stripes from the supermarket every day. Edit: Hit the gym 5 times a week though.
@@me3899 since I have no pullup bar at home, yes. If you have enough room and Equipment, you can do everything at home - squats, deadlifts, bench press. Also I would add weight plates on my back as I progressed with pushups.
I've been doing the same thing similar but with machines since high school and now getting back into weight training all I do is chest press lat pull-downs and squats
I find that for muscular imbalances for these movements. I end up engaging my strong muscles to do the movement way more than the weak muscles. Which is why I feel like I need to isolate those weak ones
You know yourself best, but Idk if that is how it works, usually its the opposite, if something hurts more than the reast it means it is a weak link as he puts it
I don't like the word "basics" I prefer to call them "fundamentals" Basics makes something seem like it's beneath you, no soccer player ever stops training dribbling because "basics"
I agree. I add weighted vest to my pushups and pullups and have seen my muscles blow up.

curious, did you need to go to the gym to do pushups and pullups?

Wow, it all just finally clicked for me, after all these years. Well explained.
It's funny that ypu came up with this isea nearly simultaneously with The Bioneer. Sincerely, your philosophies could work really well together!
if you look at professional bodybuilders, they care a about that mind muscle connection and going heavy (high tension) on classic compound movements
As usual great advice 💪
as always thanks for the video. 🙏☺️
Ok I am in love with this vid!
Great Video💪
Brilliant !

when you use dumbbells, rings, trx, parallettes they train each limb independently so you solve muscle imbalances as opposed to using bars
We couldn’t see the exercises Recomended at the end of the video.
Apparently the link was not included

I don't have enough time for single joint exercises anyway.
nice video
