this is why i've been following mikes videos for years now he's humble enough to discuss on camera his weak areas and not behind closed doors, i feel like most of these youtube fitness channels apart from mike and greg plitt really tell you how it is, other channels just think that they are right in everything they do, its all about keeping a student mentality even if you are a hit on the internet so i commend him for that, love the videos more of this please

Ben, you've changed my entire thought process on how I workout. I just wanted to say thank you for the information and the ability to articulate it to everyone else who's had those lagging body part issues their whole lives and not known how to strengthen them. A complete and total eye opening video.

Ben Pakulski smart guy. I learned to concentrate and focus on the muscle and contraction by using low weights and slowly progressing that muscle group to where I can go heavy and still concentrate and contract that muscle.

I like how Ben mentioned the fact that most ppl who give advice or even train base their advice on their own genetics which often times aren't the same as others'. Proper training based on basics of the body will always work for anyone. I dig this video, thanks for the knowledge, Mike!

Hey Mike, Bet you never knew you'd grow up to be an inspiration to many worldwide. I did have a question, I need some tips on how to continue my training while also balancing my pecs/tri's. My dominant arm (right) has a greater tricept definition than my left. My left pec is bigger than my right. Do i train each lagging muscle (left tri/right pec) throughout the week? Do i continue to train pecs/tris while perfecting form? Dumbell training? How long until pec's are equal? Thank you, appreciated

Ok, Shawn, one reason you might not be getting as big as you like is because either youre not getting enough calories in carbs or protein, you haven't toned first which is stuff like body resistance training rather than weights ie push ups, squats without a bar etc, if you tone first, you are guaranteed to put on muscle and mass quicker because your body has gotten used to your own weight and has extended the strength of your muscles, therefore allowing you to lift with better form. Hope it help
