Homie gets straight to the TLDR. But also plops in the science. But also also some humor to keep you engaged. And finally there's reminders to think critically sprinkled in. It's a great format, yeah, but it's also just your personality? Love your videos man. I learn something every time and not always just about lifting.

[@MakoTheFrog]

Just wanna take a moment to say Joe, your production quality along with the concise and articulate way you deliver the information in an easy to understand format, backed by visuals is fantastic, I have learned a lot from you over the years and in the current climate of the "fitness boom" where there is so much nonsense, misdirection and misinformation to sell supps & other junk your channel has always been a beacon of truth and quality... (and corny fish jokes). So thank you mate!

[@stephdiedrich]

Agreed

[@augustc8995]

Joe has some of the best, most informative, and well thought out videos. Easy to understand, straight to the point, no BS.

[@Othimbo]

Joe is so well-articulated in his videos, I appreciate that a great deal. Keep grinding my brothers

[@reeson226]

Watching you for 10 years brother. Since the start of the delbros, you've came a long way

[@Faris-by1wd]

massive respect for the consistency in video quality over all these years

[@themalcolmking]

Your videos are always densely packed with good information. I love them. They make me have to watch multiple times to catch all the studies and understand them in the context of my own fitness journey. Keep killing it Joey D. 👊🏾 💥

[@lalzup94]

love your style of videos man. its simple, light, focused and to the point. and the video aesthetics are also top notch.

[@juliangtp7547]

Joe, just wanted to say real quick that your videos have been such an inspiration for me. I started making my own yt vids a while ago and sometimes feel like quitting but it are these vids that inspire me to continue, even tho most of my content is quite different from your. Again, thanks!💪🏼

[@Shane7492]

Always keeping it real and simple. Love this guy.

[@mellowwizard]

Been gyming and watching Joe's videos for a while, and I'm still learning! Solid video

[@BlakeChastainFitness]

Gotta be one of the best fitness videos that I have ever watched, hands down. Fantastic, informative, and I feel like I'm walking away with concepts that I can apply to many different lifts, some not touched on in the video. Thank you ⭐

[@hollywoodbb]

A new Joey D video dropped right before my workout? S’gonna be a great day!

[@Lbyt21]

Joe D is the realest.

[@andrewbradshaw6321]

Joey D = full days of eating or fish analogies. What a hero

[@brettgetsfit]

Great video, will have to make some adaptions, appreciate you. brett

[@andreifumurescu165]

Joey D, Ive been using your free full-body workout template for about 2+ years now. Phenomenal results. Couldn't have the physic I have today without it. Ive changed a few exercises/rep ranges overtime on account of..boredom. Will be incorporating the info from this video into my next cycle. You've changed my life. Appreciate you.

[@Hvade]

The transformation of this channel from when I first started bingewatching back in the day to now is just crazy. Happy for you man🫶🏼

[@seanmcgrady8688]

This video has an excellent variety of exercises, and I'm going to implement them as replacements for others in the next few weeks for testing. +1 to you.

[@robertheinz5980]

glad to see im doing most of these alrdy, except for the ab ones. Gonna give those ones a try!

[@Mackerel_Sushi]

Never thought about doing decline leg raises like that, imma try it for sure. thx joe

[@HeNuGy-kt9oc]

I agree on almost everything, except the leg press. If stretch under tension in the goal then at the bottom of a leg press (max hip and knee flexion) we must aim for max load and that is achieved with a sled leg press, not with a lever leg press. It is possible to add heavy chains or rubber bands to compensate for the lack of tension at full extension on every squatting exercise. It's true that nothing beats machines in constant force throughout a curved movement, however, cables do a pretty good job at maximizing tension in the stretch position. With DBs, it can be tricky but it can be done too: think of side and rear raises lying on a bench but on your side so the weight is perpendicular to your extended arm, these require around half the weight compared to regular side raises o reverse flys to produce the same tension since they are so tough.

[@Heliumjoker]

Commenting for the algorithm. Also Joe Delaney is my hero

[@w27sav31]

Another great informative video, joe really is one of KZbin’s best no BS fitness guru’s 👊🏻

[@aliihotii]

The calm delivery, instant subcribe.

[@StewartyBoy1987]

Nice one. Nearing the end of my training block so will make some tweaks with a few of these tips. Always appreciated Joey d

[@IngeLem]

Variety will likely always work better, thanks for that precision few people care to add 😉 and glad it was built into your PUSH app as well !

[@RoidfreeSenior]

yeah, In agreement on most of these things

[@smithlo4092]

what I've learned today >> instead of replacing triceps push down from my exercise routine, I will try to add overhead triceps extension 2 sets to my workout routine. Thank you

[@derricksimbu]

Thanks again Joe! Always look forward to your videos

[@benjirexx]

Joey my dude, just wanted to say thank you for keeping this one language-free. My dad ears are sensitive, so I much appreciate it lol.

[@Yaboykingwizard]

Joey Delaney is my hero 🦸‍♂️

[@vincewarren1271]

This video was good. Different from a lot of others I've seen over the years from this channel and a variety of others 👍

[@ChristopherRobin58]

Great info! Long time follower. Appreciate your content! 💪

[@MMAMACHINE594]

Joey You haven’t been an inspiration You’ve been fucking helpful Your sound lad

[@harryw521]

Epic content with no BS, that’s joey d

[@tf547]

Joe, are we ever getting a follow up episode of chasing the natural high? I find myself coming back to the first episodes very frequently!

[@jakesmith3836]

Really enjoyed this video Joe, thanks mate

[@thedeeprot]

Going to try these

[@22Sota]

Yes yes! Joe Delaney is my hero

[@justinvanrossum3648]

I’m definitely gonna include reverse crunches from now on. Great tip

[@jimmywalker8354]

Joe Delaney is my favourite fitness KZbinr!!! Sick physique bro!!

[@Cathal2222]

Do both, best advice out of everything 👏🏼

[@robdudgeon5455]

Joe as always full of humour, informative insights and the odd 90s Eric Cantona analogy 😅

[@yasmintrains]

got confused, now my fish have net gains

[@EliteDezignz]

Joe Delaney is my biggest hero ❤

[@pablo-zn1mg]

that reverse ab crunch looks intense. I'll have to add it to my week

[@hotdogint]

One more nuance to add. Machines often correct the tension curve as it forces a specific path. Free weights can be used well, but there's huge variation in how they are preformed. Mike Van Wyck goes over this very well. I've noticed much better connection when consciously fading in out of a movement while allowing the body to move how it wants (opposed to remaining supper stiff).

[@drsen2911]

Joe Delaney, my favorite fish dealer 🙏

[@yeezusog5780]

Hope your lil boy is doing good Joey 👍🏽

[@agill94031]

Joe is always coming wih knowledge with a clear and humble delivery. I stan for no one but my hero, joey d🫡

[@geeboss]

Only fish salesman I watch on youtube but definitely the one that knows the most about lifting weights

[@TorBoy9]

The reverse crunch is often called a "garhammer raise". I learned this from Eugene Teo, and it is a great exercise.

[@lowflyingpigeon7956]

This gym looks insane! Wish i had something similar in my area 😮

[@georgeg2369]

Joe Delany is my barramundi 🎣

[@Omerezra-c6t]

I've been following you for years, it's fun to learn from you and the way you pass through lenses and inexplicable cynicism makes me laugh out loud😂

[@chnubis7238]

Love this kind of content

[@dingimoyo]

Quality content as usually

[@prochills5367]

Awesome vid! JOE DELANEY IS MY HERO!

[@doughughes257]

Thanks!

[@sergejstojanovic2518]

3:22 i didn't expect to see that technique anywhere else except on the rp channel. You should have been their model at a recent seminar in England

[@dontreadmyname4396]

for triceps, skull crushers with dumbells superset with close grip pressing once you got tired, aka mechanical dropset, THAT SHIT HITS THE ENTIRE TRICEPS SO GOOD GUYS, don't miss out on that exercise

[@MrMattie725]

I like the peckdeck and machine rear delt fly, but they can severely cut of the range of motion in relation to cables. You can easily lose 45° of ROM at peak contraction and peak stretch respectively.

[@JoeDelaneyy]

True, but something else to consider: beyond a point muscle fibres (technically myofilaments inside the muscle fibre) overlap and drastically decrease the potential force output, which could mean that portion of the rep is the least important. That's not to say it's entirely irrelevant though, of course - just something to consider (that is beyond the scope of the video).

[@alanmcclenaghan3499]

Really helpful, mate. Thanks a lot 👍🏼

[@nelsonhoffman5922]

Joe delaney- Redefining "dad bod" since a couple of months ago :)

[@michaelroland201]

Joey D you’re my hero!

[@ameragic3619]

Amazing editing in recent videos!

[@fredericocarvalhais6652]

The stretch position is the way!!

[@joe_2112]

What are you doing Joe? Makin’ a turbo salad

[@Окорочок-н2в]

will consider switching to some of this alternatives soon

[@gaborszinyei8180]

Joe Delaney is my fish dealer!! 🎣

[@richardlay782]

Love the premise of the video Mr Bundy. Personally think it's important to also bear in mind that whilst some of these exercises are definitely more "optimal" than others, often, the most "optimal" exercise long-term is the one you enjoy the most. Of course, if you like two exercises equally... do the one that's more effective. If there's one you really enjoy and one you really dislike, I would lean towards doing the one that I like, even it's "less effective" Doing your hamstring curls seated rather than lying might be 5% more effective, but if you skip them every other week because you hate them, they're not very effective at all Most important thing about training is to enjoy it as much as possible, cos that's what makes you keep showing up Def agree with your selections from the video, just thought it's important to note this caveat. Just my own thoughts from 8+ years of training PS you are my hero

[@KEEPTHECHANGE10]

gotta love that my gym just replaced the seated leg curl machine with a prone one...

[@JoeDelaneyy]

To be fair, a lot of the newer prone ones are far from flat - they do try to incorporate some hip flexion.

[@Faxulous]

finna make some changes to my workouts from this

[@Digq22]

Would love to win the one year subscription!

[@danielaidefors3244]

Really good video as always 👊🏻

[@elperron1008]

Can you do a video on how to bulk properly pls!!

[@JoeDelaneyy]

Here before he changed the title. 🤦‍♂

[@heycwiss]

Cheers for the fish, Joe.

[@JoeBeatz123]

So useful and informative. Great video

[@cantlay100]

Seated incline curls have no tension at the stretch, there is more tension at the distal part of the bicep on preacher curls, even though the shoulder is flexed. So considering the resistance profile of these exercise is important to.

[@JoeDelaneyy]

Yep, that's why I added the little NB on screen when showing that exercise 👌

[@cantlay100]

@@JoeDelaneyy I’ve been watching your videos since you were sponsored by fucking paragon. This is actually the first videos of yours I’ve watched in years and I’m not going to lie I was expecting a load of drone about stretch mediated hypertrophy but was actually impressed with the rationale behind your choices and the biomechanics knowledge 👍🏼

[@garynaughton7468]

Great video Joe

[@cincinnatifunk]

This was a great fish. I mean video. Thanks mate.

[@SteveFields-tm9je]

Thanks Joe😊

[@tomandrews3113]

I enjoyed my fish, now I’m massive💪🏼🎣

[@viktor821]

Use machines, use straps and do full range of motion, 1 sec pause at the contraction, 2-3 sec eccentrics = win

[@alprobert]

I've Haddock enough of you Joe!

[@joeyd2097]

Please let me win the Push app subscription! I've been ur biggest fan for years (since u were cool with Tommy B)

[@lmack6596]

Just finished watching this, and tried to "like" it, only to remember I already had 40secs in!!

[@MarioSaraiva]

I feel like Joe keeps getting better and better at editing and making videos it’s top notch quality 👌🏽 I’ve been trying to get into a consistent program for a while hopefully to turn me from chopstick to walking Christmas tree 😂😂 Good luck for everyone trying to enter the app giveaway 💪🏼

[@askingwhy123]

You, sir, are looking absolutely sick. Your slow-food methods are borderline ASMR. Never change.

[@RLucas82]

Great video mate 👍

[@TekapoSativa]

Great informative video - this was exactly a topic I was wondering recently. Also surprised machines do better than cables. But key seems to be to keep variety, my upper lower split has two variations.

[@doughughes257]

Thanks! I thought I was intelligent but I had trouble understanding the biomechanics until the end where you say that the point is to try and match the exercise to the strength curve of the movement.

[@dinidunisal4648]

quick question 4:50 isnt tension most important at the stretched position of the muscle? therefore isnt the sled leg press better?

[@lulagros]

Your videos are so much fun

[@malikmellal9221]

fish analogy was amazing ahaha keep it up

[@JoeDelaneyy]

Hey mate, I said I'd give away a year free Push app access to one commenter under this video. Yours was chosen (I used a random comment picker). Drop your email address in a reply to this comment and I'll send you a link for the app. Or if you don't want it justly me know and I will choose somebody else. 👍

[@richard99cookify]

Re: ham curls - saw a video earlier funnily enough saying that one should lean the torso forward as well on the seated ham curls and then start performing the exercise. Leaning forward then enhances the stretch somehow and really does the business.

[@missn1382]

you are the best!!!!
