@@thghtfl inconsistent nutrition, sleep, worrying about the amount of weight I was lifting instead of technique. Too short ROM purely for the sake of moving poundages. Since I've lowered weights and increased ROM, slow with pause at stretch...wow...its just amazing.

[@jefvermelen4171]

I think it would be super cool to see you coach some people with little to no lifting experience. Would be interested what cues you use to quickly get them up and running

Agreed. I’ve also wanted to see Mike or Jared coach a novice. Or a detrained, to see how they break them of bad habits.

[@jaketaz2848]

This whole stretch issue has been a game-changer for me. Even during the reps where I don't have perfect form, as long as I feel that stretch at the bottom I always get a great pump and am making more gains with less weight. My flexibility has also improved, which has always been a weak point.

[@donnycollins1797]

What’s sad is so many won’t do it because they’re hung up on the idea they must be lifting a certain weight. Since I’ve let that go I’m getting gains.

Hey Dr Mike Glad that YT Algo Recommended Your Videos I watched several of your YT videos about Glute exercises As I am Quad Dominant, Here what I gather to create a Focus & Growth Glute Program Don’t hesitate to correct me 1/I will start with Bulgarian Split Squat on Smith Machine =>Back leg on a Bench (I feel more my glute when my back leg is on a bench Vs Front Foot Elevated: don’t know why…) *3 sets of 10-20 reps per leg *Moderate weight *Pause at the bottom *Rest between each Leg 2/Hip Trust Machine: 3 sets of 10-20 reps *Light Weight *2sec Hold Top &squeeze glutes *30 sec Rest 3/Modify Deadlift : 3*10-15 reps => Bend Beginning with relatively straight knees As go down, let the knees come forward just enough not a big bend Pause at the bottom What Do you Think of the program? I must have missed your video talking about « Kick Back » exercice & « Hip Abductor machine » for the « side/round » booty : is it useful to do it? Thank in advance for your feedback Luv

[@doesstuffoutside]

I've adopted this pushdowns to deficit pushups superset after it showed up in another video, and it's totally soul crushing. Love it.

[@doesstuffoutside]

Triceps are definitely the limiting factor. I usually hit three sets of skull crushers before moving in to this superset, so there's already a decent amount of fatigue going in. I'd imagine if you weren't getting enough tricep engagement for them to be the limiter, you're either not hitting a high enough RIR on the pushdowns or you need to narrow up your hands on the pushups.@ednigma5

[@amc9301]

Do you use same déficit blocks of the vídeo? I ask because i dont know the height or where find this blocks

[@doesstuffoutside]

@@amc9301 I don't have those blocks. My company fitness center has some plastic step aerobics steps that I use frequently. I've also used two kettlebells of the same size to get the extra pushup depth, with my feet up on a step to keep the movement more horizontal.

[@ABigNUT69]

What's up Mike. I've done a version of this for a while now with great results.. what I do, I si have two chairs set up in front of my dryer , so I can kind of be a slight decline.. then I can spread the chairs apart just enough or more to be able to go down really far and get a great stretch. It really blows up your chest like Hiroshima .. and you can get even more of a Decline than what you guys get on those little girly boxes.. Tip for you Mike... When doing the box pushups... Put a bench under your feet so it becomes more of a Decline press..

[@akunknown]

This is information is gold

[@alexdebake7118]

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 01:31 💪 The cambered bar bench press is a key exercise for chest and triceps. Descend slowly and maximize the stretch under load. 05:22 🏋️‍♂️ Incline dumbbell presses target the clavicular portion of the pecs. Focus on a deep stretch and aim for higher reps (10-20) due to dumbbell instability. 09:34 🏋️‍♀️ When doing a chest-triceps workout, consider doing more triceps volume (4-5 sets) at the end to ensure adequate stimulus, especially if you're already fatigued from chest exercises. 12:57 💡 Focus on controlled eccentrics and isolation exercises like cable tricep push-downs followed by compound movements like tricep push-ups to maximize tricep volume and muscle failure.

[@arturovelazquezreza7380]

I would love to see some reps in the mat between you Dr. Mike and JH!

[@ThePhysicalReaction]

never seen a cambered bar before. Seems so simple yet effective. For similar focus on depth Ive been using incline bar bell press with the bracers set up on the sides. I start at the bottom of the movement - which also helps for safety since failure just means the weights just rest down on the bracers which they would have anyways.

[@Double_deuce22]

Just did incline today. 4 count down, pause with a good stretch and then controlled on the way up. I finish with a fifth set of single single double. I am curious about your thoughts on the single single double routine. Is it a waste; just for show; or is there some benefit to doing them. Keep up the amazing work.

[@matejsvrcek273]

One of my favourite exercises for the past couple months have been incline pushups using gymnastic rings, don't think I've tried an exercise that hit the chest as much as this thanks to the stretch, feels good to see a video from you guys about it 😀

[@anonperson3972]

I replaced my bench with weighted elevated (dip bar) push ups months ago. My arms and chest have started blowing up. I think I'm going to add in those dumbell presses too, they look brutal.

[@user-up4qj6cr6t]

Great video, an awesome teacher. Found your channel today. I tend to give up on chest because of my shoulder. Whenever I bench, my shoulder hurts or any chest exercises. And even when I’m taking off my shirt or closing the patios screen door, shoulders hurt. Question is : what can I do or which muscle in the deltoid should I strengthen to build my chest.

[@kh-wg9bt]

I LOVE heavy low reps Inc dB press, literally transformed my pecs.i used to have really underdeveloped upper pecs probably years of bad posture. I do even slower than these guys though. If I go faster I lose the mind muscle connection to my upper pecs. I've tried higher reps but due to the ultra slow negatives I fatigue so quickly and my tonnage ends up being much lower. Sets of 5 if my sweet spot. Example I can do 42kg x 5,5,5,4 drop set 35 x 8 If I start with 35kg I do 10,8,5.. then drop off a cliff. In theory I like the idea of higher rep dumbells but it just doesn't work for me. In fact give me high rep barbell press any day

The last superset with the tricep pushdown followed by the pushup has me wondering about one of the prior video (January 11, 2023) about supersetting which discussed that the compound movement should ideally have 3-degrees of freedom in the joints, not the 2-degrees of freedom from a push up. How does that principal work in relation to the superset in this video?
