Hey guys! A quick update on me! My ankle has pretty much fully recovered from the sprain (stupid basketball) so I'm back to hitting full body workouts again. In the meantime, I wanted to post this yoke workout as it's something I'm really trying to emphasize in my own training these days. I was actually SO sore after hitting this workout, so if you're looking for a new challenge, give it a shot! Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Peace!

[@10Cnote]

Hi Jeff my name is Christopher, great video as usual and since you research your topics very substantially it’s always refreshing to see, I would recommend Josh Bryant’s Texas TrapSaw Massacre, it is definitely something I would love to try if I didn’t work full time and if I had time.

Hey Jeff, thanks for the new video, and I hope your ankle feels 100% soon! As someone with a naturally thicker neck, and who has some mild issues with sleep apnea, would you recommend these neck exercises or no? I've heard too much mass around the neck can make sleep apnea worse.

Did somebody say traps?

[@Cwillz303]

Morpher I know that I’m 6 months late to this party but the best way to do upright rows safely is to start at a weight and volume you can tolerate, and progress sensibly over time. Assuming you’re not already overly uncomfortable with the movement, just start light & work your way up slow and steady over time, you’ll most likely be completely fine

[@sudeshk9474]

Soooo should u superset shrugs with lateral raises or not? I could not understand whether "destroy" here means in a good way, or like bad (injury) way?

[@steveblah5]

This is totally anecdotal but you can increase the intensity of neck extensions by doing them directly in front of the dumbbell rack, making sure to force eye contact w/ people in the mirror at peak contraction.

So the best way is to add them as finishers to ur already made workout plan. If u really need work on say the neck u could even drop an exercise ur performing well. Apart from compound ones better to keep working on them. Remember he's using a rep range of 15-30 for neck so endurance. Endurance is a perfect finisher for strength training plans , e.g the 5 by 5

Deadlifts and overhead presses gains massive mass on my neck, i wasnt even trying to get a thick neck the first time my neck blow up. The great thing about a thick neck is that it gives you that look with a jumper on that you're yoked. While you could have a skinny neck and be yoked under the jumper, people will just think you're average. Downside to a thick neck is maintaining it, Take time off training and the first thing to go is the neck, with in a month.

My recommendation after 10 years of lifting try snatch grip shrug.. believe me your traps will be sore for 2 weeks after you do it for the first time.. donot do upright row.. it’s always not confortable for my shoulder even with trying more then 10 different form but all is complete sh*t

[@EvsPersonal]

For someone who wants to workout and be healthy for the REST OF MY LIFE. Why tf would i risk doing upright rows when there's better exercises. Not worth it. High pulls and shrugs are incredible for me. Don't like the feel of upright rows

Here come the Athlean X vs Jeff Nippard comments 🤦‍♂️

First video I've watched from your channel. Very informative. Think I'll subscribe now 👍

I swear bro jeff always cracks me up

[@ethoslotus554]

i feel like as a natural when you have a thick neck and big traps it kinda makes you look more narrow, even if you have some reasonably big delts

[@thelazybone666]

you are forgetting about your lats and waist also contributing to your width. Just make sure your neck and traps are proportional to the rest of your body.

[@ethoslotus554]

​@@thelazybone666 of course, but i'm speaking in context to the video

[@thelazybone666]

@@ethoslotus554 I know but even if you get a big neck and traps, they are never going to be as big as a bodybuilder on gear

[@SenexGames]

Instead of looking certain way (insecurity or sexual market value concern) Why not focus on getting as strong as you can, without gimmicks and unending list of exercises for each body part. Better to really be strong that to look strong.

[@authenticbaguette6673]

Inspire yup .. I was cringing really hard at the "overpowering look" BS ... Let's not talk about the exercises , like why would anyone waste time and energy doing bastardised versions of the main lifts ? A row is a row , you don't row in 5 different styles depending on what you are trying to "emphasise"

[@es6287]

Because some campere to look good and for someone it helps with their insecurity to look strong.

[@SenexGames]

@@authenticbaguette6673 Yes, better served by being strung as fuck in the big compounds, translatable to everything, also this is the one sensible real gold, fight frailty and sarcopenia and delay weakness and death. But that is just my opinion, and we know every dipshit has one :))

[@SenexGames]

@@es6287 Didn't get your statement "campere"?

[@kevinjohnson3925]

Look up the definition of bodybuilder vs powerlifter

Great video, I actually seen some new things. I learned some things.
