If you are not doing leg curls BEFORE your heavy quad movement, you are acting a fool (again) Why? 1. Warms up the knees 2. Gets some blood in the hams and almost acts as a spring out of a deep squat/hack/leg press, etc. If you haven't already, give it a shot your next leg day, and you'll never go back. These should be hard, working sets of leg curls

Finally hit 600 lbs on the squat. I've been working towards this for basically the past 7 months. Thanks to "Fate of Ophelia" by Taylor Swift blaring in my ear, and the inspirational post quoted below, it actually moved quite well!

Single arm cable lat row has been a GREAT addition to my back days Always good to hit them from a different angle than your regular pulldown Tips: - neutral grip - think about driving elbow into hips, but do NOT bring elbow past and behind your back - keep the shoulder of the arm you're working down, and as far from your ear as you can - good stretch at front - go LIGHT on these - really find the lats here

I really like cable curls because the resistance is pretty even throughout the entire rep. Especially if you put the cable a notch or two up from the bottom, and face away. That way it's pulling BACK in the stretch, rather than down 🧠

One of my favorite tricep exercises over the last 6 months or so has been the overhead barbell extensions - can get a great stretch - keep elbows in as much as possible - *highly* recommend EZ bar vs. straight bar My tris are always on fire after these

Single-Leg Leg Press Ive wanted to program this for a while since i dont do very much single leg stuff. I absolutely have loved it these past couple weeks. And it's brutal. Really have to lower the weight

Leg Press is the other most-commonly-done-poorly exercise I see at the gym. Here's what I do to grow the quads (leg day brought to you by Maison du Coq): - Lower the weight. Probably a lot. If you can do 10 plates/side, your form *likely* sucks - Feet LOW of platform. We want most of the bend/tension to be in the knee/quad, rather than just the hip/glute - If applicable, make your seat is leaned back - Go as far down/deep as possible. Might have to improve hip and ankle mobility to get the most out of it here. It's OK if your knees go in front of your toes. That whole thing is a myth - You can use straps to hold onto the handles, and pull like no tomorrow - CFRT, smooth and controlled on the way down, explosive and controlled on the way up Congrats. You're now one of the 0.001% of people who do this exercise well!

Pec Fly/Pec Deck is one of the exercises i see most commonly done wrong in real life. Mainly from ego and wanting to lift the full stack. The following have helped me significantly: (if others have more tips/cues, please share) - Lower the weight - Recommend putting the handles very far back to make sure we can get a full stretch - keep your shoulders down and back the ENTIRE TIME. Think about holding an apple between your shoulder blades throughout ENTIRE REP (do not let shoulders round forward at front of rep) - Don't worry about your hands touching in the front, think about touching your biceps/elbows together - Keep arms pretty straight on concentric. Goal is to simply bring arms across the body, NOT act like you're hugging a tree - You can get a good stretch on these, so take advantage of it

With summer right around the corner, those abs BETTER be popping... If not, welcome to ab training 101: - All I've done for years is 2 sets of cable crunches 2-3x/wk - Like anything else, you must progressively overload - Make sure you think "chest up & flex your spine" on the way up for a good stretch - And think "bring chest to hip" on the way down to really hit em - Most important step...lose body fat!!! Voila! 🪄 (Honorable mention to crunch machine and leg raises *when done correctly*)

I think this is the 1st set of DB bench Ive ever filmed in my life Started keeping DBs at 45° throughout entire rep and its great I also like the slightest incline on the bench, as it allows me to arch (helps me keep shoulders pinned back/down) w/out making it decline press

COLDSTONE REVIEW: New Reeces + Oreo collab Tried it. Loved it. Cold Stone Creamery when can we collab? Got some big ideas If they keep coming out with Signature Creations like this, my bulk will end up being a LOT shorter than initially planned...

I have started doing my dips slightly more bent forward, and bringing my knees up to be able to counter-balance For the first time, I have been feeling my chest to get absolutely blasted by dips Watching the video back, I could probably afford to bend forward a little bit less

First ever set of pendulum squats. They aren't kidding when they say go light. I can squat 600 yet this was a mere plate & a 25 per side...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: The neutral-grip lat pulldown is by far my favorite variation. I'm able to connect best with it - try to keep shoulders pinned down (think: keep shoulders away from ears) - intentionally reach up on the eccentric (but be sure to keep load on lats) - drive elbows into hips, DONT think: "I need to pull this bar down" - I like to pretend my entire lat is a 3 inch piece of string that goes from the top of my lat to the very top of my arm, and just try to contract that small area (see picture)

Belt squats are so money. Been doing them for the past 7ish months and have LOVED them Some tips: - elevate feet w plates (if necessary) to be able to go all the way down w/out bottoming the machine - same with any leg machine: go as deep as you can to hit the quads best - i like narrow feet, slightly angled outward - hold onto the handles as LIGHTLY as possible!!!!!!! (want all tension on quads) - CFRT, slight pause at bottom too if you'd like (I like) - weight on heels Try these out a couple times, get your foot placement down, and watch your legs turn into grain silos

Im not sure why this is so hard to understand and IMPLEMENT for some people. If you want to grow your effing legs, YOU HAVE TO HIT DEPTH!!! Drop the weight, touch the hams to the calves. Simple stuff!

Arms: Ive always liked the basic arm exercises: DB curls, regular tri extensions, etc. Theyre some of the easiest things to ego lift, so going in with the mindset of... >NOT impressing anybody with the weight< ...is usually best It's usually those with the small arms curling the 60lb DBs

Seen a handful of BBers doin some deadlifts lately. Decided to knock of the rust. Probably second time doing conventional deads (or really any deads for more than 5 reps) in about 5-6 years 405x11
