[@Dreamfly_21]

I’m locked in with day after day since the beginning and I definitely want to say thank you 🙏🏾 for the inspiration/motivation everyday 🫡💪🏾🤟🏾

@@Dreamfly_21 🤙👊 that’s awesome! Thank you for joining the workouts

[@Dreamfly_21]

@@JamesGrage Yes sir!

[@JamesHoughton-bh4qj]

Great work as usual james, it was you that got me into bands a good few years ago now and I’ve never looked back.👍🏼

[@JamesGrage]

@@JamesHoughton-bh4qj good morning. That’s awesome. Yeah they really are a great training tool. I never understood why some people have so much resistance (no pun intended) to using them.

[@C3PainCoachKenneth]

Great workout, I'm liking the variety, not knowing what exercises you're going to do. Just shows the adaptability and workability of bands & dumbbells when we focus on the mind-muscle connection during the movements. You're demonstrating that it doesn't take a lot of equipment to get a great workout.

[@JamesGrage]

Yeah it keeps it fun and interesting to switch things up - especially after doing this for 34 years! I'd be bored otherwise

Long time viewer here. I really like this series here. Sadly have to take a break, because of inguinal Hernia😢 Hope i recover fast, and hopefully can continue to train without restriction.😅 Do you ever had a Hernia?

[@JamesGrage]

hey my friend. Looking forward to seeing you make a comeback. Yes, I've had a very small abdominal hernia since I was a kid. When I'm really lean you can see it. I've been told that eventually I will have to fix it but in the meantime I'm cautious about how much strain I put on it. That's a whole other side to heavy lifting (squats and deadlifts) that nobody talks about. I can't tell you how many people I've know through the years that have ended up with a hernia due to the intra-abdominal pressure created during heavy lifts. It's not the sole cause as usually there's also a predisposition for it but it certainly can exacerbate it.

Hi from Belgium ! I train at home. It's always very useful and inspiring to follow you and see all these exercises.

Hey my friend! Greetings!

@@michaelmcphillips834 morning my friend! 👊

[@user-kb1jv2us4e]

Hey James, any tips on how to make a flat bench into the best position for doing incline press. I’ve propped it up a little with a block but just can’t seem to get the angle right.. 💪👍

[@JamesGrage]

@@user-kb1jv2us4e I’ve been in that same situation. With that said I’m not as big into incline presses as I once was. I’ll actually include some info in next week’s chest workout. You can still effectively work upper chest in your presses without a much of an incline

[@user-kb1jv2us4e]

Thats awesome can’t wait! Thank you getting back to me. 😎👊💪

[@ciaranmehigan1206]

James would you stick to that smooth tempo or do you mix it up?

[@JamesGrage]

@@ciaranmehigan1206 so I used to mix it up more but I also found that I experienced more training related injuries when I used to sling heavier weights and less disciplined form. Now I’ll still mix it up a little but always under control. I wish I would have learned that way earlier in my training because once I did I got better results and beat my body up less

[@ChandlerBing-t3k]

47:54 But only doing this exercise works long head too?

[@JamesGrage]

So any triceps exercise is going to work all 3 heads of the muscle, but to try and maximize balanced development it's important to work the muscle from different angles. That doesn't always mean you have to do it in a single workout - you can do that over the course of multiple workouts.

[@validus5808]

Hey james! What type of band are you using?:)

[@JamesGrage]

Those are the newer Red/Black limited edition bands from Undersun (you can find them on Amazon - and we're also going to be giving a set away this week - check out the link in tomorrow's video)
