I had a big question about the claims to Smith's simulator: both squats and bench press, as far as I know, with the right technique, should be performed so that the bar moves as close as possible to the vertical line, which Smith provides 100%. So what's the problem with flexing the rest of your joints and spine the same way you do a proper press and squat with free weights? Or did I not understand something?

Simple is the best effective.

[@ButcherTV]

doing squats for your entire leg workout will literally produce maximum leg development over time and is the most functional movement you can do for everyday life, manual labor, sports, and just about everything else. All the other bs like smith machine, leg press, single joint exercises, and machine exercises are inferior and are a waste of time. To add variation, you can do deadlifts, front squats, and box squats.

[@BankruptGreek]

something to note about the leg extention and leg curl what he said pretty much is that isolating those muscles is unnatural and you cant use those movements in everyday life. Like I ll need to squat with 20-40kg at my shoulders or pretty much any of the exercises shown. I am not doing and not planning to do any manual labour so I guess based on the video most people should just improve flexibility and some fundamental strength instead..

Focusing on singular muscle groups is how you end up fucking yourself even if nothing explicitly goes wrong in these muscle groups.

But this guy is behaving like he knows the truth, which is in fact not true, if you have some intellect to use the Internet for scientific purposes. He is really giving wrong advice on the other hand and is biased at all costs. Like everyone, who isn't one dimensional agrees, that alot of these exercises have alot of value, but they just need to be done properly. While every other exercise he recommends also can be done properly, some easier than others of course. Besides that, all these exercises who were designed for the purpose of working out aren't just without a purpose. These exercises wouldn't exist otherwise besides some of course. Machine were created with expert knowledge and scientific research. Doesn't mean, people use them wrong. But that isn't the point. And machines and free weights both serve their purpose. It is not a hidden truth, that free weights generally are better for body control, but for beginners machines are usually easier. Doesn't mean, you make more progress by free weights.

Lol I don’t think there was a single correct fact in this whole video

[@GhostRanger5060]

I had had some serious hip and lower back issues that were cured by using the dreaded hip abduction and adduction machine. I used low weight, slow reps, and stretched beforehand. I have an offset lumbar with stenosis and a bunch of other old back injuries. I could not believe how much better my back and hip became after using these machines. The real issue with these machines is that people use too much weight -- a point this video makes very well but that might be missed by someone who just wants to dismiss this machine outright. But without these exercises my pelvis feels crooked and my hip pain is screaming. My case may be unique as my old injuries also prevent me from doing heavy squats and deadlifts. So when done right, the hip abduction and adduction machine can benefit someone with specific issues like mine. This is probably why women like it so much. It hits the glutes and compliments their other glute exercises. But I recognize that for a guy who is healthy and injury free, nothing beats heavy free weight lifting with proper form.

There is no info presented that claims that if you take squats or running and you isolate-tly look at the knee joint you ll see something else from the actual isolation exercise of curls and extentions. Then he says "unless you wanna be a bodybuilder". Being proper weight, walking, swimming in the summer and eating healthy can give you all the natural capabilities you need in your everyday life unless you are a construction worker. The majority of people going to the gym are going for esthetic reasons, since even without those exercises the soreness and energy loss will make you less capable than without the gym in the first place.

ElyTheProphet the main reason is that a machine forces your limbs to move in a restricted way, the same thing happens with the upright barbell rowing. Your joints and limbs do not follow a natural path of movement which put undue stress on them. Another factor could be because some people tend to load too much weight when using machines simply because the machine keeps the weights stable. But use whatever keeps you happy.

Biggest regret was not advocating for my health, it’s taken me two years and a lot of research to workout properly.

I think a lot of injuries occur from out of big egos lifting too much weight to impress themselves and kind of show off to others, too. It's using weights that are too heavy and are not what is needed just to properly challenge and work certain muscles. I knew a fellow who tore the hell out of his shoulders because of that mindset. He's now washed up and basically suffering from chronic pain because of permanent damage. He unfortunately was the one who introduced me to bodybuilding, which ended up with me getting hurt because of doing it his way. I ended up dropping out and it wasn't till many years later before I got back into it with the better advice of people showing me good form and focusing on that pump without trying to be some kind of ridiculous power ass. I also increase the weight on some particular exercise very slowly over time--it's about being in a marathon; not a sprint.

And that's it in a nutshell , you've hit the nail right on the head , these injuries are because of people not leaving their egos at the gym door and wanting to impress everyone in the gym , i've been down that road and have all the injuries and surgeries and that's all i had to show for it untill i done my own research on proper form and learning when a weight is just too heavy and crazy for me to lift .

[@rm9308]

No, some joint sjust aren't designed for the movements these exercises require. They're shoddy designs. Better to move on and replace them. This video is a good primer on the whys and hows.

[@nathanlessard5603]

As an athlete ( Olympic weightlifting ), it is about being in a sprint. I have many goals that are pretty insane, you just have to know when you got to push yourself to your limits and when you should lower the weight and continue working on it properly. Here,I am talking about snatch and Clean and Jerk, not saying that I go with heavier lifts (Squats, Deadlift, pulls) instead of proper form haha. But of course for someone that is only training for himself, it is a little bit more about a marathon Ikr.

[@efilperpenfuhrerjunioroffi6051]

@@nathanlessard5603 Actually, I am a big admirer of the Olympic lifters. They are the greatest in my mind. It's interesting to hear your take on it as being more of a sprint. To me, the greatest feat of strength is the clean and jerk. It's a very heavy weight sitting on the floor and ends with the lifter holding it high up over his head. It's the most complete lift and is heavier than the snatch, which is also very impressive. You know, it's funny, but Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is probably the greatest of all bodybuilders, can clean and jerk about 298 pounds and he weighs around 250. Russia's woman Olympic lifter, Tatiana Kashirina, has clean and jerked 425 pounds and she weighs 225 pounds. Can you imagine her walking into a gym and throwing the weight around in front of the big bodybuilders? Their faces would drop off. ha ha.

@@rm9308 So maybe in some particular guy's case, he should not be doing bench presses. Maybe flies. But there are guys who do benefit greatly from doing bench presses. Maybe it's about reducing the intensity of bench presses or going about it more slowly than just giving up on it.

Like every other fitness channel

Joseph McDermott Right. That's why Jeff has the biggest fitness channel right? Because of the reasons you just said.

[@johnclowes3894]

It's true. I was told a bit too late by a world renowned body builder that it all about Risks Vs Gains. There is nothing to gain from behind neck press. And the risk of injury is high. I've had one shoulder opt on and the other is now playing up. Before this happened I would do 100 press ups every morning. Now I can't do five before pain becomes unbearable. This injury happened 10 years ago and I'm still suffering the effects so be warned. Listen to this guy and stay safe.

[@jake30966]

You and me both bro .

[@deriandoody2426]

Workout how you want. Remember kids, Arnold did most of these exercises too.

[@wchphoto]

Ultimately, we decide for ourselves, mostly through trial and error. The error part usually resulting in an injury. I'm 65 and have been lifting since I was 25 and although that in itself doesn't make me an expert, I can say that through "trial and injury" over the years, I've eliminated all 10 of these exercises (and more) from my routine. That's my endorsement. So you naysayers take heed...just because you have yet to be injured by an ill-designed exercise, doesn't mean you won't be eventually. Many of these exercises were developed during the infancy of modern sports medicine and have become outdated in terms of correct biomechanics. IMHO

[@donjuantrumpetajohnson]

Same here!

Hey Bill, I wish they'd told us 45 yrs ago, instead of , No pain No gain, one more rep, one more rep ... haha :)

[@brianmartin8783]

This is why physical therapy is slowly on the uprise. Hell is wrong with people. Guess it's all the magazine covers lol

[@montyrock4]

I'm only 58, so I had only eliminated 2 of these (upright row & behind head press) through trial, error and pain. i'm able to lift more often now. As muscles got stronger, weights increased, but I started to have pain in back and knee. I can see that 5 of these exercises were doing the damage. From now on I'll stick with the compound barbell work and NOT g-r-I-n-d out the last extra reps.
