[@OmarIsuf]

VERY solid advice dudes. Just really discovered your channel, watched a few videos and definitely enjoyed the content. Great editing, presentation and I am loving those retro 80s references. Keep it up

[@mabdul8202]

Both you and buffdudes content are really helpful and funny 👏👌 keep it up :)

[@TheAceward]

[@OmarIsuf]

TheAceward much respect

[@VIPERITE16]

not surprised you missed them, they grew so quick in the last year.

[@Knieghtz]

What up Omar!

[@emmanuelreynoso5770]

"Squish your little buff dude brain" I can't handle this xD

[@silvajoao142]

i love this on so many levels

[@dejo095]

3:20 "it's gonna squish your little buff dude brain" lol

[@cxa011500]

Another common mistake: Not changing shirts between every set. :P

[@Ojthemighty]

Its the source of his power. Mine is my garish iron fist shorts.

[@Frances3654]

I always feel it in my abs when I overhead press, my bro told me I was crazy saying overhead press doesn't work out your abs, but I'm right!

[@gbin21]

I love the screaming-sound effects in your videos ;)

[@aaamos16]

Appreciate the in depth analysis of the exercise. So many personal questions answered. Thanks!

[@garudateams]

"Its gonna squish your little Buff Dude Brain..." Trade mark right there.

[@m.g.h.4727]

Love you guys. What about common mistakes with resistance/ weights?

[@Jason-xi2ij]

what the hell is that screaming sound at 1:54 ?

[@Billybob5766]

its probably from left for dead 2 lmao

[@HeLLRAiSER93ZZ]

LMAO they use it for sound effects usually with their cartoons but this was placed randomly

[@jordan2cut]

Ja son 2:40 fart

[@BoManafAlHaddad]

***** *HodgeTwins* Fan i can say?

[@theocean1973]

Weird hilarious stuff like that is the reason I love this channel 😂😂😂

[@Deconus]

Old video, so you will probably not see this, but still want to say it. My lower back was hurting more and more since I started the Grayskull LP. Then I watched this video and I realised how much I wasn't doing this exercise right. Especially the "arc behind to lift heavier" part. I corrected the form, droped the weight a lot (pride is easier to fix than vertebraes) and felt no pain the last session. I don't know what is my long term goal, but at least I have a chance to reach it without major injury. So thank you, Buff Dudes! (french speaker, so sorry for any spelling mistakes, grammar, yada yada yada...)

[@pelatho]

WTF is these sound effects! HAHAHA XD 1:50 dude wtf :D

[@yagneshraviteja]

adds some awesome bgm to the gym environment xD

[@Dinos0001]

I never heard it the first time...!!! :O

[@fritz709]

Lmao

[@theocean1973]

RAAAAHH!!! EEEUUGHHHH!!! 😂🤣

[@Peter_1986]

You hear the sound at 1:55, though.

[@gfdgdsa4069]

This really helped me out guys. Thanks alot. So procrastinating for years (blaming no gym access) but you can always find something to rig up and do this. Feels great to get those wimpy unused muscles up and running!

[@omgyeaXD]

No1. tip: Don't go to heavy or it could squish your little buff dude brain.

[@sanjean82]

I knew I didn't have that proper form. That was very helpful! Thank you!

[@Paintballed154]

Do a video on strengthening/rehabilitating knees

[@SinerAthin]

Is there one thing I've learned about shoulder exercises, then that is to never push yourself too hard with too much weight. Unlike your chest, your shoulders are extremely fucking delicate, so treat them like you would your girl!

[@youtubersdoingstuff4674]

Hey dude. Your videos are transforming my life. Between your videos and my friends help I look completely different. I have lost 3 stone AND started putting it back on again. Thank you so much :)

[@billydagenham]

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, only in flat space, so how do I do this exercise in curved space??

[@rambo2punt0]

+kush team bro don't judge, you don't know his life.

[@haruny100]

BillyThePhysicist quit giving him trouble even before he is born

[@hachemshahrour8740]

BillyThePhysicist in a curved plane a straight line is still the shortest distance even tho it can look curved. It’s called a geodesic

[@TheOnnimanne]

How about your thoughts about intermittent fasting and maybe also guide for the beginners? great video btw, I am going to use these tips next time when I exercise my shoulders. Greetings from Finland

[@ajwall3]

Over arching my lower back is my main nemesis with OP. I'm in month 3 of Stronglifts 5x5 and this is my least favorite lift.. Okay, I almost hate it. I really appreciate the informative tips and explanation of the mechanics of the lift. These guys know their stuff!! I love these videos. Thanks so much from this dudette ;)

[@danferguson9830]

I love these videos. Thanks, dudes!

[@jeffpence6163]

The quality and editing and features of all ur dudes' videos I top notch. Nice work guys

[@idangozlan2420]

Great information not only for this exercise but to all of them. Good job and thank you !

[@Jeeeezy8193]

One mistake not shown up, which I have noticed by watching though ist to not hold the bar to wide. Watching you dudes explain helped out allot. thanks

[@SnipesUnlimited]

Maybe a video about some hamstring exercises,I only know about rdls and leg extensions so I would appreciate some new exercises for hamstrings

[@AvengedSol]

I would like to see a video on Barbell Row mistakes. Can't seem to get the form right -_-

[@franklinfitzgerald1060]

thanks for the great advice. I've had two shoulder surgeries and this will definitely help me.

[@Brownstone2004]

Solid advice thanks. Started weightlifting again, will apply these instructions when performing the overhead press.

[@ash88glos]

6. Hand placement. Great video dudes

[@TheMightyWumbo]

[@sandrasmith2920]

I love your what not to do series... very helpful for a novice such as myself =)

[@HerodTheGreatBloodyMaster]

This is the last of the four major lifts i have yet to master. Props Buff Dudes, be a more than just a dude, be a buff dude.

[@GUILLOTE1235]

great teachings for lost begginers like me!greetings from Argentina to the double dragon dudes!

[@SkeetersCousin]

Damn it’s insane to see how far you guys have progressed physically and video wise over the years.

[@elmarioto]

Have you guys done any videos dealing with warm ups and stretching or cool downs? I've watched some of your videos, especially the routine one, and all I see is you guys jumping in and going at it. By the way you guys are awesome and keep up the good work.

[@whitshade]

Thanks for doing this video. Very informative and valuable for avoiding injury. This was a great reminder about the improtance of form. Nice work.

[@Delgado26]

Freaking great advice! I hate watching ppl making these mistakes in the gym, especially not doing full range of motion... KEEPITUP!

[@RiderRohans]

5 Mistakes on Dips Dudes.

[@buffdudes]

Great suggestion! That's one that's easy to make mistakes on.

[@ToddsDiscGolf]

Nice avatar dude

[@eukleidesk6759]

Buff Dudes, please do a video on the power clean. Thanks for all the great content.

[@rodeorockr9]

Very good advice. Now I got some things to work on

[@sahilsukhija6354]

[@silfver8744]

I did wrong on this exercise and had a lower back injury, ty so much for showing us how to do it properly

[@richardswanson2354]

Always great advice thanks buff dudes

[@peterlikesthis]

Do the knuckles need to point upwards (like a fist), or behind (bent wrist)?

[@gerhardhillmann1]

Is there any benefit to using a bar vs. dumb bells? Can't wait to start the new bulking book!

[@Moosuhh]

This was so helpful. I was making 3 of 5 mistakes on here. Thank you so much

[@Smas-ds6pd]

Amazing channel. Always to the point with plenty of great humor thrown in. Stay BUFF....YEEEEAAAHHHH!!!

[@Prophecy6939]

[@月下旬以来已日上午时]

[@cridgeway50]

I love these videos man. Thanks a ton.

[@600goa]

Hey BUFF DUDES! can you please make a video on the mistakes for the lat pull down machine cause there are so many variations close grip, wide grip and underhand etc. I find this the most complicated exercise of all time...except deadlift. Thanks!

[@jztbear]

Do a video covering supplements for beginners

[@TheSupersoldier1234]

Supplements are a scam you don't need them just stick with clean food

[@TheSupersoldier1234]

Supplements are a beginners trap don't buy them you won't look like Arnold or any fitness model without Steroids

[@TheSupersoldier1234]

So you wan't to make him fat?

[@TheSupersoldier1234]

And il admit i take Whey since it's like 15€ but it's pretty much a fad atm a quck cash crap for 90% of the products

[@TheSupersoldier1234]

quick*

[@GForceIntel]

I'm so glad is subscribed to you you dudes. Everyone shows amazing videos of their bodies and how long it took them to get there but you dudes are a lot more into your audience and teaching them what is the right way to perform every major exercise that could cause great injury if performed wrong. Thank you guys.

[@MrLavenderMenace]

Fantastic video, guys! I now know how to do this properly and will attempt my first overhead press tomorrow morning, thanks to your great instructions.

[@GabylannPR]

Great video thanks buff dudes!

[@SprungTV]

I think you guys typed the wrong exercise at the end of the video, it says deadlift while you are shoulder pressing. Anyway, some good tips!

[@buffdudes]

Ughhh…thanks for the heads up, Sprung! Yep, definitely a typo.

[@nickarry]

these guys just need a beach and a surfboard to complete the buff surfer stereotype lol. great vid!

[@edgardoamado7008]

Can u give some advice for home exercises for legs? The heaviest ones please

[@daviddubenets7550]

Do a how to set up a workout video

[@JohnnyRay920]

Enjoying your videos, dudes. I noticed a couple of times though, that some things you call mistakes to avoid are actually considered proper technique for weighlifters. For example, using your legs to pop the weight up into position on the overhead press. Another is using an alternating grip on the deadlift. Also, arching your back almost to the point of lifting your butt off of the bench during the benchpress. I realize that your goals are different than a weightlifter, so it really just depends on what someone is trying to achieve.

[@RAWxEntertainment]

For building muscle, do you recommend doing 4 sets of 6-8 reps? I was told lower weight and lower sets are better for gaining and would want to know what you recommend.

[@dayhockaday1863]

Thank you for this video...highly beneficial!!

[@abzdine]

Great video as usual. i have a question though: how about the grip stance? wide? narrow? shoulder width? does each one of these work different part of the shoulders? Thank you in advance and cheers from Morocco guys!

[@MOSes020]

I really appreciate these videos

[@journeytoraceday]

Thanks for the video, dudes! Question, I thought locking elbows out is not a good idea (just like locking out knees on leg press)? Don't we want to have tension on the delts at all times? Your thoughts?

[@monkeydude3987]

Thank you guys for sharing and uploading! I would call myself a beginner/slightly intermediate lifter and your videos are simple to follow and understand. I appreciate these tips on this particular lift and already see some ways to improve what I'm doing at the gym.

[@dusanpancevo1703]

Best bodybuilding chanell in yt.

[@2014andon]

My natural shoulder rotation + posture makes is easier to push the bar backwards rather than upwards, plus false grip pushes it even more back.

[@omadlom]

Great video, thank you!

[@SMILES1129]

I just found you guys. This is great advice I've never lifted weights so I'll need all the help I can get:)

[@quetepasaclarin11]

mu bueno muchachos, ayer descubir sus videos y la verdad me encantaron , sigan asi. saludos desde argentina

[@justinebondame7345]

This is the most informative!

[@GoldenSunKraden]

Feet placement : shoulder width apart in with toes pointing forward more stabilization. Try to flex your core like someone is about to hit you there and imagine pushing the floor with your quads in order to straighten out your posture. When grabbing the bar, make sure everything's tight which is crucial throughout the lift to get the maximum power and to avoid injuries.

[@richardbutler4593]

Hi, great vid, thanks. One question: I notice the power rack in the background with the high/low cable pull and the straight-through support rods; looking for one like this myself. Would you mind sharing what model/brand it is? Thanks!

[@kimsoonsoo6004]

1.바를 수직으로 움직여라 2.허리를너무뒤로굽히기보다바르게하고코어에힘을주어라 3.다리반동을사용하지말것 4.적정무게를사용할것 5.가동범위를 풀 범위로할것

[@orgil7008]

Kim SoonSoo tf

[@brennanryan8026]

Thanks for the advice!

[@ShaneTumminello]

I'm surprised you guys didn't mention grip. I don't know if there's such a thing as a right or wrong grip for the OHP but I prefer doing a false grip, just a little bit outside of shoulder width on the bar. I've always heard that's never good to go super wide.

[@kylewinters8857]

Please do the common mistakes for the bent over row. :)

[@JoelBritos]

Thanks guys, very useful!

[@bjwalters8385]

Great video! I gotta say, I was guilty of leaning back a little and using my legs to help me with the last few reps. I'll definitely keep this video in mind the next time I work shoulders. Thanks Dudes!

[@scott4398]

#3: The push press is a great exercise. Sure it's the wrong way to do a strict overhead press, but it is also the right way to do a push press.

[@nazrazr]

thanks a lot...a very good tips for beginner like me

[@justindepano95]

Great video dudes!!

[@chenzheliu5453]

Hi Budd Dueds, is it compulsory that I should have breakfast before I go to gym in the morning? If so, how long should I rest before I go to gym? Thank you very much -- Spike

[@stephenross521]

Love your videos, Dudes. Keep up the good work!💪💪

[@slightlychilledbodybuilder6364]

I love this series!!!

[@W0VIK-vic]

Hey Brandon I've been working out for about 2 months now. I've been following your videos but I'm not really seeing much difference in my chest. My body fat has dropped to 12%. How to see more in my chest. Another question is being at 12% body fat is it ok to work abs everyday now?

[@charleslincoln1580]

Always helpful thx

[@misterzombie9259]

hey guys could u make a video on how to bring shoulders down and how to fix arched neck?

[@willraz]

Sometimes I feel some strain on the back of my neck, what do you think i'm probably doing wrong when that happens? Thanks!

[@Nowhereman2209]

Buff Dudes what is the lenght of that barbell.. tnx man.

[@daeriousjames2220]

Thanks for sharing !

[@KingDayDayDay00]

Serious question, what about squeezing the glutes? I do this to help keep my body nice and tight and helps protect my spine. I think it should have been mentioned for number 2.

[@Kayeinel]

You're right. I do the same

[@outputdamikrip]

Your awesome dude! Thanks for the tips!

[@Germfish]

Thinking about adding this to my shoulder day, right now it's upright rows, side lateral raises, Arnold press and shrugs. Get rid of the Arnold press and do a overhead shoulder instead. I'm just getting back into lifting so getting up the motivation to even do it is the issue, lol. I'm a fat body right now, miss being strong. ( I was/ am doing seated arnold presses with dumbbells, I want to switch to a standing press with a barbell.)

[@jdoggydog9812]

You put the tips in description boom I already liked and subscribed thanks man

[@czoraa21]

question!!! now lets say i am doing the correct and proper form the entire exercise for 9 or so reps but i wan to get those extra or "forced reps" like with a cheat curl or a negative on the bench. is it ok to use the legs at the last reps i can't get or just lighten the weight?

[@lonnycartier.6203]

Mistake one has to be the most common mistake I see at my gym followed by dumbbell presses with too much weight. For mistake one I will get them to use a Olympic bar same as you are using with no weights. The bar alone is 40lbs -50lbs depending which one and get them use to lifting is a vertical formation.correctly. Great advices in this clip.. To the rest of the world, Buff on Buff Dudes and dudettes.

[@KamJamm]

GREAT video man
