The two biggest takeaways that I’ve taken from your channel that have made me so much stronger is range of motion and not rushing through reps, slow and controlled. That changed everything for me

First time ever doing straight bar is when I realized how weak also the forearms were. 💪🏼 Mike’s on point. Thanks for tips.

[@AmericaFirst1776_]

Straight bar curl!!! One of my favorite and go to as many sets as possible movements. 👍🏼 biggest pump no other movement

[@marctheislander5467]

Learn alot from Mike... Trying it myself when i go gym too... Thanx for sharing your knowledge with us... Much love from Fiji

[@iambill900]

i love mike, how can people disagree with him... he literally preaches what ha has practised for decades and look at him !

[@skfellow]

This is exactly what I do to make improvements to myself, then I move into my body and figure out movements to lean into what fills impinged, which in turns strengthens everything and then i can operate optimally. Haha the ways I move my body to lean in be gettin people in a unnecessary tizzy, ain't my problem they don't understand and care enough about themselves, what they do and how they do to ask, try, respect & understand. That's another reason why I appreciate all of this knowledge so much , you guys seem to grasp someone's passion for their fitness and respect of it. I've been dealing with some ignorant trainers who ain't serious about it so that's whats with the ranting. When you are surrounded with that you appreciate when you have the opportunity to hear from those that have the intellectual on the topic.

[@nemomemo5191]

I start with straight bar, dumbbells then cable 💪🏽 best of both worlds

Hey Mr Mike o hearn. My name's Logan . I'm a 25 year old male . I'm not going to go into what you do or don't do like some people with drug speculation . Regardless of what you choose to do in private life I think you're a fantastic guy great looking man . And awesome genetics. Ive been through a lot of injuries . I have 9 currently . And obviously with a mental disability. But I've found the motivation to help myself and get off medications . For pain and my disability. Physical therapy for pain and medical marijuana to eventually replace the lab drugs . The reason I'm telling you this is I wanted to thank you from the all years I watched you . And was wondering how I could possibly meet you one day ? If possible how I could do that . Thank you sir and hope you and your family stay safe . My dad's got covid and isn't doing the best .God bless

[@rktyler3470]

A fucking Men! I’ve never thought that exercise hurts you or “wears your joints out”. Y’all better listen to this guy. Fit for a lifetime

[@DarkRogueSpartan]

I watch most of mikes vid but this one had a lot of value, he went over some super important basic details about making gains over decades.

[@tonyscaccia743]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge...let people do whatever the hell they want to do..we'll keep doing what works.

[@jameshelfer8941]

Man mike watching you and listening to what you say has changed the way I work out and changing the way I look thanks man it’s funny you say that about straight bar my arms were not growing the way they should so I went to straight bar curls and started getting gains thanks for all the info

[@yunussipahioglu6877]

Thanks for this Mike.

[@michaelvalenzuela1739]

I do strict curls with my back against the wall for support sometimes more stretch but I keep my butt off the wall

[@thetruthsodealwithit2803]

That’s pole curls there totally different he’s talking about overload your cheating because your trying to overload the muscle !!!

[@TriniS2k]

Love your wall behind you @1:00 great pictures and the drawings as well.

[@boris.k9767]

Big respect from Serbia.

[@Pumpkinking4]

I found this out myself when I went from benching on a smiths machine to a straight bar, having to balance it you'll feel all those secondary mucles which will improve the mind muscle connection over time. Appreciate your insightful content Mike, every day better 💪

[@alexl.4362]

[@liamakpan]

It still blows my mind that these people are still disputing this man's wisdom even after seeing what he's achieved and how he's kept his strength, size and conditioning for over 40 years!? C'mon man... just silence yourself and respect your elders. Big love Mike!

[@robertcameron4288]

One of the many great lessons that has really helped me make big jumps/strides besides of course fine tuning my nutrition/diet plan these first 6 months has been with incorporating heavy singles into the warm up, I can control heavier weight so much easier because of this. Everyone is always like what are doing heavy weight to warm up? Your gonna get injured...6 months in I’m not injured and catching up on my way to surpassing those naysayers lol

[@Chromosome1919]

I love straight bars bicep curls but i do it light to make it right 💪👌

[@Hungrybird474]

I love straight bar ! Don’t worry about hurting too much kids . It will go away when you start working out . If it’s horrible pain then you should heal but most soreness and joint issues should go away after a few weeks .

[@WVUTEAM]

I'm 47 and ty for the knowledge.

[@Cenot4ph]

solid experience here, thanks a lot

[@ajikanfan2]

hey Mike, thank you so much for the valuable input, this question has really been burning for me. Thanks for helping to flatten this crazy learning curve mad for the Titan Crew

[@MCP2002]

I grew up with straight bar, Mike is spot on.

[@thetruthsodealwithit2803]

I agree with mike ohearn that everyone uses a excuse to shy away from the basics! Instead of finding out what works for them they want Science to show them what’s best for everyone. When science is B.S Because everyone is different. Go I the gym and find out what works for me have since 1996!!! I have been struggling with depression and your videos and the gym have Ben Malik game. Feel so much better. Your the want Mike I’ve learned more from you than anyone else on Y.T ignore the negative your changing lives here!!!

[@JabbaJohnson]

Hi Mr. Mike O’Hearn, I think you are legendary bodybuilder! I found out about you when I bought the Arnold Encyclopedia and saw a picture of you for oblique ab exercises. I’m very glad to have stumbled upon your channel and learn about your vintage training methods. I’m from NYC and 20 years and have been working out for a year! I was wondering if you have any advice or videos on building the forearms. Thank you so you are a true inspiration!! :)

[@giojameskhalil98]

Love the channel. Much respect 💪🏾💪🏾

[@cosmicrenegade369]

Couldn't agree more.

[@swaggydesh4997]

[@anj999]

I gonna try this today ✌️😎✌️thanks legend 👌

[@NTCOX]

I was doing Olympic straight bar curls in the 7 and 8 grade

[@YoooPatrick]

Thanks, Mike. This is a BIG tip! I've been doing the power barbell curls that your recommended and it's been helping me curl way more the past couple of months, esp letting the elbows move slightly/freely with the bar allowing it to go full range of motion, has been improving my elbow joint significantly! Random question - when you do accessory exercises, do you work up to a top set? or do you work in sets around an 8-12 range?

[@snippitydippity3229]

This is the one we've been waiting for. Thanks so much mike

[@ivan37274]

Cable curls feel great and Barbell curls hurt! Well said!

[@JesusMartinez-oy7qe]

Mike thank you for all your info you are a treasure

[@rodrigoplantier5153]

Straight bar is the same results as curl bars? Cause those dont hurt the rists

[@CankleCankle]

The straight bar hits the inside head in a way that a EZ bar cant. I too, had discomfort in the wrist at first. But you have to start real light, i began with an empty bar.

[@ifyomama]

Cheers for the tip mate

[@lazaro4182]

Hey ohearn thanks for the behind the neck press vid my shoulders are boulders

[@followtheleader1114]

[@skiptoney1092]

[@garyyeomans8556]

I take krill oil bcaa’s creatine vit c any tips? I’d love to join up but I simply cannot afford 10$ a week 😢

[@Maxsolomon88]

[@WheystedGainzAndArtisticMe]

[@jcm730]

There is more than one way to be right. Structurally some people do better than others on certain movements. One size doesn't fit all

[@stevenrwilson181]

Still remember you as an American Gladiator!!

[@jemah6396]

Yessss I am training them biceps today thank you Mike

[@ALLofYOU2]

[@NTCOX]

Yep

[@theglow2484]

Another great video thanks man 🙏🏻

[@benedikt1054]

Whats your thoughts on reps/sets? (For powerbuilding) and how often? If you use straight bar curl as primory exercise for biceps?

[@AmericanMuscleTruck]

Thanks for the tips Titan 💪

[@SuperDecible]

[@zacharygreene1979]

Any movement done improperly can cause injury. If done properly, every movement is great.

[@antoniovilla1666]

True Legend

[@roadstar499]

certain form changes can make even using cables a real mass builder... Its all about mind muscle connection and experience for me... over 50 years i have done pretty much every type of training... Heavy weight is great,just not all the time...

[@ztaylor82]

I only use ez bar now as my right elbow would be clicking uncomfortably everytime on straight bar under certain amount of heavy weight

[@NTCOX]

I agree with u Mike

[@WheystedGainzAndArtisticMe]

Nothing wrong with cables still work it n' can be heavy

[@Peter.William.Ingham]

Heavy weights build muscle 💪

[@stelliumeleven2889]

"he's just watching the clock" is my new saying

[@ethanackerman2516]

Great man met home in person he is so informative and incredible

[@immelting9834]

Just used the info in this very video 10 minutes ago. I Normally use ez curl bar with bar/50lb for 15 and sets of 4. After using the straight bar ( half the weight as normal same set #) my right elbow is hurting. However, I have 2 metal pins in the elbow from a motorcycle crash . So maybe that has something to do with it. Going back to ez bar. I think the angle is causing some metal and bone to rub on each other idk.

[@thetruthsodealwithit2803]

There not for everyone it’s something you have to start early sd build up!!!
