[@ahmaddzulilmimuis8065]

1. Learn to contracting the muscle 2. Manage volume and/or frequency for those muscles

Fine for me on tv yt

So you could say that posing trains how to contract which will result in better muscular developement, am i right?

[@jeremyprice88]

Julius Auerbach spot on

My rear delts :C

Make sure to export the audio as stereo and not mono next time...

[@RawrJrRoar]

i only confident to do leg exercise while increasing weight load in leg press, but i feel not good in bench press exercise, the amount of weight i can can bench is static... is it because my body chest width too small due to my body type?

[@ChaosPotatos]

How do I contract my shoulders? I can't seem to be able to flex them on their own, which lead to the lagging delts. Can anyone help??

[@sill3n]

So. As Ben already said. Train them more often, but fewer sets, so the sets per week/month is the same. Secondly, a tip from me personally is to use less weight, and not think about your hands, but your elbows. Lead with your elbows, which means to make your intention to make your elbows raise the weight/resistance. Hope it helps.

[@johnalvares9808]

relax them by laying them on a table or something at a 90 degree angle and flex

[@user-sy2io5gx7e]

work on contracting them in the shortened range of motion. try cable lateral raises with the cables all the way at the bottom (while focusing on the top of the range of motion). That can also be done with dumbells. I found really light weight for a long time under tension has worked well for myself. Upping my delt freq to 5 times a week where 3 of those days the sole purpose was increasing my ability to contract my delts has worked well.

[@serban2139]

chest lagging part, i have strong mind-muscle connection, altough after 2 sets of bench press i lose almost all of that feeling, what would you recommend? more frequency?

[@jessesanchezphysique]

sirBOOM band bro use bands

[@tannerrood2980]

Don't focus so much on bench press! Try other exercises to get a full ROM - exercises that don't allow you to lose that connection as easily. Cable fly's at all different angles are great, or something like an incline dumbbell press, focusing on the negative (to keep the reps controlled).

Someone show this video to Marc Lobliner.

Ben, your arms are better than mine, and I have great arms. I just wanted to get that out of the way. So, here’s the flaw in your analysis: If, as you say, it’s just a case of learning how to drive tension through the intended muscle, what happened to your arms? You say that any individual has a consistent hormonal and genetic ability to build muscle anywhere on their body, providing they learn how to work the lagging muscle. I disagree. Hormonal and hypertrophic responses actually do differ across the body of an individual. If it were a case of simply learning how to work a weak bodypart, you would have conquered the issue of your arms. For the most part (60%) you are accurate with your analysis of items such as vectors, lines of force, moments of torque etc, but the final tension experienced by the muscle also relies upon the angle of the muscle’s insertion to the bone, at various positions throughout the exercise. Nobody mentions this because they don’t know what they don’t know: The line of force through the cable (or weight, due to gravity) is important, but it is only half the story. The other half is, the line of force through the longitudinal centreline of the muscle, through the insertion, and continuing through the centreline of the bone. Here, there is an angle that greatly affects vectors, tension and mechanical advantage. There are a Trillion and one things you could teach me about bodybuilding, but this is one thing about which I am right.

please fix ur audio..

[@MrBrandan00]

If its just as easy to build all your body parts where is your back ben?
