EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR BIGGER BICEPS | MIKE VAN WYCK 

Mike explaining the right way to curl, while someone in back of frame shows us how not to, Perfect timing! Thanks for the wisdom Mike!

Nothing funnier than watching all the gym bros behind Mike doing curls incorrectly as he tries to explain how to do curls the right way.....

“These idiots, I shouldn’t say that that’s rude…Anyways these idiots” 😭😂love him man he never misses.

I am sorry but I haven’t found someone that explains bodybuilding like big mike ……. Mike was born to body-build he is absolutely the best of the best ….. i learn so much from him

I have following Mike only for about six weeks and have had more gains in that six weeks than in 5 years, and being an older lifter have drastically lowered the weights size. Amazing when you listen to a none ego experienced older lifter himself to a trainer who as done a six weeks course and is only after your money and just lets you continue lifting with bad form. Mike stop apologising for the swearing, being and Australian it’s part and parcel of our culture, we even call our mates f**kwit or dickhead it’s what mates do. What I also like about Mike’s videos is he talks about injuries that can occur because like Mike, I have a mountain of them. I am 65 years of age, Veteran of the Australian Army of 35 years, have a replacement ankle, two replacement, knees, right shoulder replaced, and as I said watching Mike showing you can drop the weights, slow down, and most importantly get the angles right. I thank you Mike for taking the time to make these videos and sharing them, I must admit when I first started and dropped the weight the first 3-4 reps I thought ohhh this is F**King easy but getting to 6-7 my mind was saying my BICEPS, or whatever I was training were on fire, and being the weirdo I am I was laughing because I knew I connected to those muscles. Now I am getting people watching me and it’s like you know what their thinking, he’s lifting light but he is twice the size of us and that includes bloke who are in their 30s. So again Mike, I watch yourself and Mountain dog who to me is still lives through he’s videos and was a gentleman trying to do he’s supersets is always a challenge and to sneak a few seconds more break between the next activity because I was absolutely shagged. But thankfully when I do supersets now boy do i drop the weights, I was watching one of Mountain Dog’s videos on front Delts he said you need to lift light and he picked up what looked like 10 kg, well I soon learnt Mountain Dogs light is my 3 kg lol😂and I was struggling with that weight lol😂. Huge respect to you both, hopefully Mountain Dog lets me join he’s gym when its my turn to depart.

Mike (and Bruce Lee): "Be water my friend!" Rest of the industry: "Be concrete, costumer!" Your advice is pure gold good sir. The explanation of movement, "rocking" and "moving on muscle" should be taught in every Gym I have ever been to. I have been taught to be as stiff as possible to achieve optimal results and "perfect" form. Thank you for waking me up and showing me a better way.

Also lee priest arms was the best ...

Thank you Mike for putting so much time, effort and explaination into these videos. The education you provide is so much appreciated. I put everything I learn from your videos into my workouts, and the difference is night and day. Your lifting and movement knowledge is beyond reproach. Thanks man!! 💪

The way MVW explains each workout is the best. Simplifying everything and not trying to be fancy. Love the videos man! 💪🏼

Awesome Video Mike, so many good tips in here! Tried them in the gym today, beat bicep workout I’ve had in awhile🙏

your vids are great bro!! i watch them while im in the gym just to make sure im doing it right. appreciate them alot and im sure i speak for alot of ppl.

This was a really good one Mike!! Thanks!..for all of your posts!

Dude thank you so much for this useful advice. I’ll implement next time I do biceps. You’re the best! Don’t stop.

Awesome knowledge sharing.. waites for Mike to drop a video, always love to learn from him, The best of the bestest ❤ Thanks Mike..!

Sweet ass arm exercise class! Everything you said works to a T! Especially when you were explaining the one arm preacher curl. One of my favorites. Now sit back,watch,learn and enjoy your arm workout the Wcyked way👊

Just as you stated the arm blaster and Spyder curls have really helped my arms out. Lighted the weight and squeezed like hell. Thanks Mike!

This was so insightful! Really appreciate it Mike!

I came by your channel last week. This week I incorporated the techniques you employ for back, shoulders, and arms. I must say, I've been lifting for over 15 years and your advice has been some of the best I've come across pertaining to mind/muscle connection and mechanics. I knew I wasn't getting the activation I was looking for, but following your advice on set up, form, posture, range of motion, and execution, I had one of best weeks in the gym in years. I practiced the set up and movement of each exercise at the start of, and in between each set. It made a huge difference and took a huge load off my shoulders. My triceps were burning after the first set! I'm looking forward to what my physique will look like come May/June. Great stuff Mike.

Always a different pump when I apply what you say in the videos! Thank you👊🏽

Great video! Using the lower angle (not straight up and down) on the preacher curl is how I really hurt my forearms on both arms, literally couldn’t do anything (pull ups, curls etc) for over a year and when I did it hurt so much, that angle with too heavy weight just fucked them up... switched to the other side like you’re showing probably 2 years ago and will probably never go back.

Thank you so much for all the help.

Hey Mike when you going to come out with a routine ? Love your videos gained a lot of knowledge from them and yes I was doing all the wrong things when it came to training your awesome dude!

Best part of my Sunday is when Elora and Mike upload a new video - well done!

Thanks for the knowledge Mike ! Your impersonations get me every time made my Sunday!! 😂😂

Excellent video. I really learned a lot for this video. I know personally my arms are tricep centric and I am heavy in the shoulders. I am going to try your technique and see if I can correct that. Thanks, Mike

Once again awesome info and break down!!!!

Thank you for giving us these priceless information for free

I just find you Best information!! You really make me realise what i can improve to work smarter, the way you explain how to take the corect position is brilliant! My hat's off to you Sir

Going to try all this in the gym today Great video ❤️🙏

Appreciate your detailed expressions on all movements

Great content as usual Mike 💪🏻💪🏻

This Is one of your best videos. I'm 53 and and never to old to learn.

You are the King Mike and Thanks for the good info, Thank you for big arms 💪 you are the only one who tells things in detail how things work, when people discover you you easily get a million followers, which you deserve. Roger 🇳🇴🇳🇴

Wycked tips Big Mike and it makes a whole lot of sense!

Golden! Thank you Mike!

This one is awesome 👌 Mike now keep doing and never stop

Best video yet! now maybe my biceps can catch up to my triceps. For some reason over the last 3 months my triceps have blown up.

Love the video mike ill do that tomorrow cause i got biceps and forearms

Fuck man, every time I think I'm doing something right, I run into your vids lol. Im just so brainwashed, I feel any rocking is "cheating"; so you're certainly right about that "stiffness" being "proper form" is ingrained in us. Time to apply this week. Thanks big guy.

This really knows about the muscle, enjoying his knowledge 👍

Love the content ……facts facts facts guys at my gym swear exactly that chasing number instead feeling biceps

Massive appreciation for this man

Just keeping things simple and basic not making the movement harder than it is good advice 💪😊

when i seen minimel's video last nite i was wishing you had explained the new bent over curl that u gotten from phil health. can't wait for arm day try that sucker out

Your content is the stuff that people need to hear, not the BS from most people. By the way I F@&$ing love the Rage shirt! 🤘🏼

Love it thanks again BM💕

Thank you Mike for the long awaited biceps video. Could you please shortly explain the need for the body rocking during standing barbell biceps curls (how is it different from "cheating"?) and whether one should fully extend the elbows during curls or keep a slight bend in the bottom position (particularly during preacher curls, but really during all version of curls) having in mind on the one hand the need to develop full biceps incl. the botom part and on the other hand trying to avoid muscle tear and keep constant tension on the muscle (is the constant tension needed, or is it OK to let the muscle relax for a split second in the stretched position?)

Keep dropping gym jewels the MVW way & I'll keep picking them up 💎🎯💪🏿

Thank you 🙏🏼 Mike

Mr. Wyck I'm guilty of everything you described on doing Biceps. Thank you

Work the muscles not the weight….Mike I got it. I mean u have been preaching this the whole time but some won’t get it. Just keep the content coming I appreciate the wisdom.

Glad you did this video , you helped my tri's now my bi's will catch up !

my arms have been stuck for years. All of this makes so much sense, if i can put on new size in the next few months ill personally have to come to pure muscle and thank you lol.

You literally give better tips in a few minutes then some people’s whole pages way better then all these “optimal guys” all over social media

Love the shirt! I just seen them in Pittsburgh!

Incorporated this video in my routine....fire results in only a month

GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!

That was the best bicep videos I have seen💪🏾💪🏾 this man knows hit shit thank you for this valuable info!

Hilarious as Mike explains not to curl "pouring out" theres a dude behind him doing just that. And huge pet peeve of mine is when guys stand right in front of weight rack to do there set rather than step back in case someone wants to grab something or unload. It's not that busy in there but still.

I may be wrong but I think a lot of people who get into weight training mimic what they've seen big guys do in the gym. Whether it be right or wrong execution. I say this because I was guilty of the it back when I started in my teens and it carried over into my early adult years. And then I got in tune with mind muscle,which helped me to start using the right form. I started to feel the muscles working by learning proper execution,hand/body position and utilizing that to get better. And at 51 years old I luv weight training more than I did in my 20s.

IM FINALLY LEARNING HOW TO REALLY MOVE BRO. GOOD SHIT HOPE TO TRAIN WIT YOU ONE DAY

Big Mike wit the facts 💯💯💯💯🦾🦾🦾🦾

When you where talking about the funky weird classic pose rounding the ciceps reminded me of that scene in pumping iron when wes brown "the little blonde guy" is showing arnold a pose he likes

He is the truth!😤

Started seeing your videos recently and implementing a lot of your tips which has helped a lot with most parts and I know you're a proponent of "making do with what you have." But the best thing I have near me without having to drive 30+ minutes is Anytime Fitness and all they have are Precor machines and I am starting to hate them with an absolute passion. I can get most things to work, but every machine has some part of it that is off center or angled to a point where you can't line up evenly on the pad or even to a point where it remotely feels good...especially the laying leg curl plus the gap between the thigh and chest pads is so big it digs into my pelvis.

😂 Very good advice, doing the right way and less prone to injury!!

Thanks Mike!

“That’s a hip thrust!” Lmaoo that escalated quick… 😂💪🏽. I appreciate this video… I def have not been rocking in my stand up bar curl. Thanks again Mike 🙏🏽

I switched to the easy bar curl technique and it was a game changer. I had to drop weight by ~40% from my straight bar technique. Well worth it! I get way better stimulus on my bicep, and I don't have to lug around a bunch of weight and fatigue myself. Same respective story for me on the DB technique too.

someone needs to make a soundboard of mike saying, rocking, sliding, scooping, on lat, locked down etc

I really appreciate you

About the straight bar curls, I remember when I was 14 and I was doing straight bar curls, and I thought that feeling in my forearm was the bone carrying the weight, but it was the supinator going crazy trying to fully supinate the forearm. Some adults even think it's the bone. LOL then why don't you feel it when you do hammer curls. Well I totally agree, straight bar curls are horrible, and are not a basic exercise. Dumbbell curls or ez-bar curls are basics.

My respect for this man has just grew 10 fold by the shirt he’s wearing ✊🏼💪🏼

Couldn't make it up. Lads in the background. Hilarious. Simple explanation for such gold advice. Nice one big fella

Mike pls write a book Man , much needed here in India ❤

I do like how how does dumbell curls in reverse .have to note the good too :)

I live in the UK His message about feel the weight & drop weight if need be & change position ie lean forward to focus & feel bicep contract , few months of that you will see difference!!!! Took me years to grasp that so I'm working on it. My arms on tense are 17 inch but as I'm tall they don't feel big at all!! I want to get to 19 inch

Thank you! 👍❤️ Grüße aus Deutschland

Man i wish the gyms in my area looked like this. Hell id take a week vacation just to visit this gym

Well said 💪🏾💪🏾

Hello Sir and Thanks for sharing your expertise. A question: what’s your take on HIT- training?

just get a great mind muscle connection and stay there as long as you can. no need to do heavy weight for biceps like mike says • 12-15 reps and live there and feel it

💎💎💎 great video!

Mike is one of the most knowledgeable people on social media if you want to learn the correct training techniques for Bodybuilding/ resistance training…Straight forward training techniques minus the BS, and showboating. #liftweightskeepCANAMstrong🇨🇦🇺🇸💪💪

I've never seen anyone over complicate biceps training like him!

I’m rocking, I’m scooping, I’m rocking I’m scooping! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

holy shit i am learning so much.

I’ve been guilty of doin db curls that way. I did try doin ez bar curls with my arms hangin down. It worked pretty good. I do prefer doin spider curls off of an incline bench tho. I’ll use either use a db or ez bar on a cable. Sick pump either way. Thanks for the tip Big Mike. 👍💪

The guy behind him was just doing that... LOL

speaking of delts,I would like to see your rear delt execises you do for them.

Would love to see a video on diet

I have the opposite problem from what you discussed at the end; my biceps have grown (a little) and my triceps have grown, but my shoulders are tiny. My shoulders are not the widest part of my body; my triceps are.

Holy fuck man, it feels so good!

Hey Mike. Would it also be a good idea if I was to curl within the range of tension ? So if my arm / bicep are completely relaxed at the bottom (straight line) then if I curl ever so slightly to the point where you feel the bicep “catch/tense” …then work within that range of motion ? Thank you in advance and a massive thank you for all of your content 💪🏻🙏🏻

😂😂😂😂 the guy behind mike just proved his point as he walks away

This is masterclass stuff. Everything wrong Mike is pointing out is aimed directly at me/or rather I am guilty of. I've been applying his teachings to my training and I've gotten more connection using bands, training in my kitchen for the last week, than 30 + years training in gyms. This channel is a god send.

Let’s see some core exercises Mike. How did you train core back in the day?

Mike thank you for dumbing it down for us normies noobies. We are beyond grateful for this golden knowledge. We are not worthy.
