I want to give everybody a pro tip. I've been training people for 35 years. If you notice when this guy is pushing up the weight he is actually holding his breath until he gets to the top and then he exhales. For the majority of people this won't be a problem but I can tell you if you have an aneurysm or high blood pressure, it's a very dangerous way to lift. Even after I got my degree in exercise science, I still didn't know this. I learned this not too long ago when I had to start learning about aneurysms. All exhaling should be done as you are pushing the weight not just when you get done. This goes for every exercise. Most people don't even realize they're doing it and I sure didn't know for a long time. Good luck!.

[@Imhotep_DrummerJones]

Interestingly, i just started making proper breathing part of my focus when training… preciate that message

[@davidselawsky6620]

Excellent point,very true.

[@rareforareasontv]

I try my BEST to focus on this! More than the reps at times. I’m trying to master it both. I was told that the army so you don’t pass out. Running. Calisthenics. All of it.

[@flextefitness4954]

@@rareforareasontv exactly. Most people hold their breath until the end like I saw in this video . For most people it won't make much of a difference but with certain health conditions it's very dangerous and in general it's best to do it right.

[@cremdeniro237]

I started following Mike & I went from 175 to 225 on the bench

[@tdoggsmackem7498]

I went from 135 to 140

[@darrylstubblefield]

I’ll get you to 225 & 210 for reps

[@Jstomper14]

great gains bros

[@Ice-qq1or]

What routine did you use

[@murkishmacksauce]

Hopefully I’m next lol

[@aliblackwell8821]

Mike, you’re definitely correct. When he pushed up that 315, I grabbed my shoes and my hoodie. Omw to the gym right now!!!! Thanks for the content. 🔥

[@MikeRashidOfficial]

Hell yeah, that’s what I’m talking about

[@johnakins97]

Same here

[@s.c8949]

Damn this guy is still going. I remember watching him like 10 years ago.

[@Jayyy_Wav]

Same here. His style of training got me to 2 plates within just a few months of benching. I’ve been plateaued at 315 for some time now so here I am again. Gonna get to work.

[@Romansims1990]

I remember mike , big rob, bulo, and CT first started on KZbin them guys taught me everything i know and wanna say thank y'all for all lessons

[@eddieldavisjr716]

Mike rashid teachings helped me get stronger.... Overtraining is the only way to grow 💯

[@BlueStarTowing]

Mike Rashid..I’m one of the people this video made go to the gym! I love the overtraining videos! I’m about to go fuck shit up in the gym. People sleep in on Sundays, I’m up at 5am watching Mike Rashid videos mentally preparing for my workouts! Thank you!!

[@darcysandler952]

The real question is what is your meaning of fucking shit up ? everyone says they are or want to fuck shit up but who's really doing it

[@myflw]

I miss your videos like this bro videos like this is the reason I started following you since 2014 thank you

[@cordellcummings9844]

This is exactly how my dad trained me. Guys don't understand there is a method to the madness. You want to get stronger you have to push yourself and struggle to failure. Love the workout Mike !!

[@iseehowitis9382]

Mike's a Jedi Master out in these streets, and on these platforms teaching, giving back excellent knowledge. Shout out to him. Give him all his flowers now. Nothing but respect, and endless successful venture towards you Big Homie, keep grinding for yours. ✊🏾

[@jnilla33]

Lord knows I needed this video. I saw it last night and instantly wanted to go to the gym. Like buddy, I've been comfortable at 225. This morning, I got up to 295 for 2. 3 plates coming soon

[@westsidemike-sv1xm]

It u can do 295 for 2 then u already csn di 315. Trust me u got it

[@Natureboypkr2]

💪🫵

[@ny4lyfe19]

@@westsidemike-sv1xmnot necessarily. I could hit 295 for 4 305 for 2 and I always failed at 315. It a lot of mental tho

[@dominicksans7204]

Got to be dialed in for every set for every rep. That mind muscle connection is so critical. Even with a plate you connect with the muscle you can feel the muscle work throughout the whole movement. May not be the same work as two plates but you can still feel it. I close my eyes when I do most of my lifts. This allows for a symbiotic connection between mind and muscle.

[@cremdeniro237]

Facts no lies detected

[@BillyBob-jb3yy]

Notice I been closing eyes also

[@markuslullman5711]

Yess we need more videos like this, different muscle groups with the info and tips💪🏼🙏🏼

[@Itskingrahim]

Love this video. Need to hear this. Appreciate that Mike.

[@WhatsReallyGoodTV]

Big Fax!! When he did the 305 the first time. I said Mike just put this man in a different stratosphere!! And I was like I’m doing this my next workout and I’m going to start working toward more gains. It maybe a bit different for me because I’m fasting on my workout days but I’m getting stronger ever time I go back to my gym. It the mindset. The body will do what you tell it to do!! And seeing him do that 305 as many times as he did was PURE INSPIRATION!!

[@cabywhang6505]

tell it like it is no bs,very good.i have seen a lot off youtube fitness trash but you stand above it.great info

[@tazcartagena]

Love Mike from early man... his advice always hits your mind and soul. CT and Simeon videos 🫡

[@benny9794]

Appreciate you Mike for not being scared to correct and give feedback. Look at how it increased and improved his bench! I'm doing Kingmaker rn and loving it! Exerting myself and it feels like a reward

[@bigstan310]

Love the way you explained how the progressively get stronger and get your weight up , I'm using that method on my next flat bench session

[@underratedappreciated9110]

Mike, I love your content bro. I’ve been a spectator for years and you’ve always been consistent in your teachings and practices. I credit you as much of the reason why my training has progressed so much over the past couple years. Much love and respect bro, keep up the great work my guy! 💯💪🏿

[@MikeRashidOfficial]

Appreciate you

[@RichardParks-l7m]

That fact that Mike rashid has broken down the basics of weight training is phenomenal! If you go back and watch his old videos he talks about the importance of the basics.

[@dominicksans7204]

That elbow tip is golden, going to use that

[@BLACK70Z]

HIS HEAD NEEDS TO STAY FLAT ON THE BENCH. THAT’S AN INJURY RISK, AS IN KNECK STRAIN OR OTHER! LOVE THE VIDEO👊🏿👊🏿

[@Healthhub23]

This shit right here makes me want to bring my sleeping bag to the gym and just visit my house for an hour a day.

[@cedstevo1148]

Something as simple as changing his grip from false grip to full grip would add more weight to his lift.

[@vinnyclinton5846]

Definitely gained new insights on how I train. I do go to failure as I'm going up in weight but no longer. Awesome advice Thanks Mike.

[@charleswaples4574]

The crazy thing about this workout is that it doesn't really take that long to finish, and you'll get a good pump. Nice work big bro.

[@UNDGT]

More than a pump. He's tearing new fibers in the muscles for growth. 🔥

[@kenben6240]

Great pump, but it does take a while to finish, going all the way up in weight then coming down all the reps plus the rest in between this exercise is not a quick one you need time

[@vibek681]

Looks like it takes a while bruh lol in a normal gym you gotta get there early or have alot of benches, great work though

Overtraining program = power- bodybuilding. This is something I'm definitely going to implement. Being a hard gainer myself, this was the answer I needed for a better training mindset and programming.

Nice Tip Mike on letting them know the spotter role! I hate when I see that in the gym, the lifter should be able to get his weight up, the spotter is there for when he is in trouble.

[@bboylorettoEight08]

I got my plateau too yes you have to make the workout more intense by adding more weight and or doing more reps or changing the various types of muscle engaging. Grips too will help give you variety too
