-Squats, preferrably smith machine because it's easier on the knees -Deadlifts for hammies and glutes -Neutral grip pullups for back/biceps -Incline dumbbell bench press -Dumbbell shoulder press -Close grip flat barbell bench press -Standing suppinated dumbbell curls, mainly just because it's fun (it is) -Bent over rows for stability, core, lower and upper back -Hanging leg raises for core -Lateral raises for meaty side delts

[@Story_Yeller]

I would swap out the close grip press for overhead triceps extension and maybe lateral raises for facepulls (those give good side delt activation too, which lot of people don't know) Not trying to say I know more than Mr Olympia but to be fair he didn't prepare or think much about this question so...

I remember coming to the gym after partying all night , sleeping few hours , still reeking like booze, dehydrated af , train heavy and still growing. Youth is the answer. Now , I probably can grow on trt only at my age but I’m not trying . Excessive weight will kill you regardless if it’s muscular tissue or fat tissue. As you get older to keep the form you have to train harder and take more juice . Now imagine you and your friend bought identical cars . You drive barely idling for a year and your friend floors it every time. Whose car will be in a better shape ? Now what about 5 years? Now imagine that car is your body and your heart is an engine that you rev when you hit the gym . The only difference you can buy a new car but life is given only once . At least what you capable of remembering

[@star08094]

7:00 I'm a football coach on the high school level. I always tell my players during the offseason that they have to ease back into field training, as they've only been weight training for the past few weeks/months. So even if they feel good for the field, recovery time will be grueling after just one session if you give it 100% your first time back. The same way you build up your lifts when coming back from a long hiatus to strengthen stabilizers, etc, your entire body needs to be equipped to move and perform at a certain level for sports. The reason a normal person won't be as sore as a trained athlete who just returned from months off is because the trained athlete is capable of a certain amount, and if they perform in a way that reflects that on their first day back, they're probably going to be out of commission for some time until the next session.

[@iirovaltonen4258]

My picks, in no particular order… 1) Pull-over Machine - hits almost the entire arc of shoulder extension 2) Seated Leg Curl - hammy’s (when lengthened at the hip), plus calves (gastroc) 3) Cable Reverse Fly (shoulder externally rotated) - mid delts & all traps hit with a consistent full range challenge 4) Torso Rotation Machine - every spinal muscle covered 5) Incline DB Press - anterior delts, upper chest, tri’s etc etc. 6) Leg Press - “triple extension” challenge with option to bias hip or knee extensors (could also sneak some isolated calf work in 🤫) 7) Dip Machine - choice of biasing chest & anterior delts Vs tri’s 8) Incline DB Curl - bi’s hit when lengthened at the shoulder 9) DB triceps Ext. on incline bench - tri’s hit with long head lengthened at the shoulder 10) Leg Extension - biggest muscle group in the body, plus no other exercise challenges quads in a shortened length. That was fun… for me 🙂

It's so interesting to see what another veteran lifter chooses as their favorite exercises. When you've been doing it for so long, professionally or not, it seems every vet ends up settling on the same exercises. After 15+ years in the gym, I find 90% of these work the best for me too. That's so dope to see. Don't think that these are just for phenoms like C-Bum, folks. Definitely give these a try; just make sure that you learn proper form. You want to use exercises that you can maintain over a lifetime. Diversity shouldn't always be the priority; intensity should. So find what you can handle comfortably, and without injury. Was funny to see him reach for more effective exercises for the list and end up on hanging leg raises. After years of core exercises, and seeing what works best for me, I ended up on just one exercise that I need for abs: hanging leg raises. You want efficiency in the gym. If you can get maximum muscle activation with one exercise per one muscle group, that's actually optimal, because you can just progressively overload that exercise/muscle group like nuts, and perfect your form. These usually come in the form of compound exercises (works more than just one muscle group, like squat/benchpress/pull-ups). At least as a starting place, give the exercises he listed a shot. Each person is different, but these will be effective and safe for most people.

[@deeppocketz5487]

[@artem4dead]

According to my empirical data, in order to select only 10 exercises that are only necessary for muscle growth, one must consider the planar method. It is based on all physiological patterns of human movement, but we will choose only the most basic movements: 1) Knee dominant exercise: back squat (weightlifting style) -> agonist muscles = almost all leg muscles, glutes; 2) Hip dominant exercise: deadlift (classic) -> agonist muscles = spinal extensors + hamstrings; 3) Vertical press: bench press behind the head (medium grip) -> agonist muscles = middle/rear deltoid + triceps + trapezius; 4) Vertical row: pull-ups (classic) -> agonist muscles = lats + forearm extensors; 5) Horizontal press: incline bench press (wide grip and the bar descends on the solar plexus) -> agonist muscles = pectorals + anterior/mid deltoids + triceps; 6) Horizontal row: bent over row (pronated grip) -> agonist muscles = lats + rhomboid + trapezius; 7) Biceps/forearms: standing straight bar curls (medium grip) -> all heads of biceps + forearm flexors; 8) Triceps (in 2 press exercises they work, but there will be no such pronounced growth if you do not isolate): lying triceps extensions with EZ-bar -> if lowered behind the head, then the lateral/medial/long head of the triceps will work ; 9) Muscles of the lower leg: rises on socks while standing on the machine; 10) Abdominal muscles: leg raises (hanging on the horizontal bar, on the Swedish wall, on the uneven bars) -> lifting the legs to parallel = more emphasis on the lower part of the press; high leg lift = all parts of the rectus abdominis. ❗Subject to the principle of progressive overload in strength training, even with constant linear periodization on the side of "natural" training and good nutrition (even without sports supplements) and recovery (the main thing is the quality of sleep), and regardless of the length of training (only a beginner or already training for 1-2 years), you can achieve quite good results by splitting these exercises into a bodybuilding/powerlifting split, or I will shock you, but this can be done in 1 workout per week!

dang Chris! first Dr. Mike now Cbum! You're taking over as THE BEST interviewer.......example: Dr Peter Attia's questions you asked were WAY BETTER than many other interviews he did recently (yes I'm a big podcast consumer). Anyway THANK YOU

[@Doxsein]

Congrats on 1mil, Chris!! Love your podcast, and the videography and lighting is stunning here. Well done.

[@wtfhahahaha]

i'd pick the front squat but here are some alternatives: heel-elevated back squats, smith machine squats, hack squats, pendulum squats, pendulum leg press, sissy squats (if you can get them weighted), belt squats, bulgarian split squats for the hip hinge its up to preference: rdl, stiff-legged deadlift, or good morning. i'd go with the rdl or stiff-legged deadlift, but if i had a gym with an ssb i'd go for the good morning instead of neutral grip pullups and dumbbell curls, i'd have super wide grip pullups (works lats AND upper back) and chinups (works lats, lower lats, and biceps), i'd want an incline curl too but it just doesnt fit the top 10 incline dumbbell bench press OR if you're into calisthenics: decline deficit pushups (preferably with rings too and possibly weighted) close grip flat barbell bench press OR ring dips (can go weighted), just perform the dips with an angle so your chest and triceps fail at a similar time OHP with dumbbells cuz strength doesnt really matter for this lateral raises hanging leg raises and then bent over rows heres a way to do it differently though, and i personally think this is more optimal sacrifice the hanging leg raises for calf raises (probably a good call, unlike other big compounds, front squats ACTUALLY do engage your core a LOT) and then we have 2 lat exercises: chinups and wide grip pullups, and a back exercise (bent over rows). chinups also do biceps, and they target your lower lats a lil, and wide grip pullups do your upper back as well as your lats. bent over rows target the upper back, but they're not good enough on their own for your upper back (you needa add something onto it to make it good), unlike other upper back isolation exercises like tbar rows, seated rows, etc. bent over rows + wide grip pullups will develop your upper back a lot but you could do this: neutral grip pullups + an upper back row like a tbar row or seal rows. then you could do pullovers, or you could add back in the hanging leg raises. you'll lose out on some lower back thickness doing this unfortunately but i mean you could also choose back extensions instead of leg raises or pullovers, and you still got rdls/stiff legged deadlifts/good mornings

[@pinksupremacy6076]

My own list: 1) Conventional deadlift 2) High bar back squats 3) Wide grip pull ups (pronated) 4) Dips 5) Sled work (pulling/pushing) 6) Good mornings 7) Pendlay rows 8) Standing barbell overhead press 9) Flat benchpress 10) Toes to bar

[@ebrahimmusleh]

I'll take 4X Mr. Olympia list over internet guy comment's list.

[@heroricspiritfreinen38]

​@@ebrahimmuslehyou shouldn't be taking *anyone's* list lmao, it was a fun question not a workout plan

[@nullvektor9922]

Why Good mornings? They are like a worse RDL and you already picked a hinge movement with conventional.

[@Sean_Shaun_Shawn]

@@ebrahimmusleh You'll end up with pretty much the same results. It's an arbitrary question vaguely with the idea in mind that there are best all-round exercises but without context of who someone is, why they're training, how old they are and several other variables it's always going to just be a general list of good exercises. It's one of the reasons I like that Bumstead qualifies by keeping longevity in mind and answers specific to Bodybuilding for the stage- very few people even think about the former and very few people ever do the latter. That said, everyone always forgets about the Olympic lifts- Snatch in particular is so incredibly well rounded that it's hard not to recommend as one of the best 5 or best 10 if you're forced to ignore everything else but want to hit as much of the body as possible.

[@ebrahimmusleh]

@@Sean_Shaun_Shawn didn't bother reading 20 sentences in a youtube comment section. Shut up hobo. I'm learning from Mr. Olympia.

[@tommynewgin]

999k subs 👀 congrats bro, no one deserves that 1 mill more. Can’t believe it’s taken this long but it’ll continue for a good while I’m sure. Congrats to your team to, the production is a joke and I’m sure this isn’t all possible on your own, inspiring stuff 🎉

Great chat and the production quality is absurd 🔥 🔥

I've found I always felt better when my cardio was top notch over just focusing on muscle mass/gains. Drinking plenty of water instead of pre/post workouts and sticking to raw fresh fruit and veg rather than tubs of over rated whey and powdered liver destroyers. Once I bulked up more and lost some of my cardio, which I've done a few times, I finally just thought na I felt much better lighter and quicker, healthier inside, instead of sitting around waiting for muscle to build, focusing on gains and mass. So yeah I think say a middle distance runner with a toned fit physique, especially for later in life, is the way to go....just my opinion though, plus saves all the hassle of focusing on slight gains all the time, only to lose it so easily for instance injury or illness, like what has just happened to myself not long ago, so yeah it's not worth the time imho. Super Cardio with a toned Physique, having a raw healthy diet and plenty of water and sunlight is the way to go, rather than gunk, over eating....and an eggy room all the time! 🤣 All the best. 🤝🏽👍🏽❤✌🏽

[@Huberman-t4b]

Man i thought like...its the best podcast environment... Color grading hit me in amazing way...by and large, its impeccable

[@requiemforameme1]

5:00 Have a herniation from deadlifting along L3. I’ve tried everything short of pills and consulted for fusion, radioablation, microsurgery, etc. The thing that makes my back feel best is going outside, doing pull-ups, and hanging there til exhaustion. Gravity just sorts it out.

[@Grindsetillionaire]

You gotta listen to your body

[@JoaoSantos-he2zr]

Dumbell pull-over for me it's one of the best. I love it

[@dredrl0220]

Ex. 1: pick up syringe with right hand. Ex. 2: bring needle close to vein in left arm. Ex. 3: Plunge plunger down with right thumb, injecting steroids into blood vessel. It will kill you early , but you'll be attractive to other guys in the short term. Etc.
