I like your videos cuz u are very honest in what u r good and bad at doing. most guys only show their strength! knowing that u could stand to build on certain areas make me feel not so bad about my weaknesses.
Make a video about the volume of training and the rest between sets.How to determine then number of sets we should do to grow and how to choose the time of the rest between sets.
Great video man a mustle that we cant really find workouts for ....you should do a video on suppliments you use all of then or some on each video. Well thx man keep up the good work 👍
Love your videos and it is inspiring to see someone a year younger than me making good gains. However, for your barbell row I feel like you could control the negative a lot more and same with your dumbbell rows. You are strong but you aren't going to be anywhere close to contracting your back fully with that 180 compared to 120. I would drop the weight and focus on the contraction to help your back, but still obviously keeping a few heavy sets of db/barbell rows in your routine. Great progress, you aren't doing anything wrong but if your back is a weak point it wouldn't hurt to try and reduce the weight and really focus on your form. Great video as always :)
If you want to get a thick upper back keep doing deadlifts and try out these exercises in your routine. Pendlay rows to the chest. face-pulls, behind the back smith machine shrugs, and make sure you shrug at the top of any overhead movement. My upper back exploded from doing these.
yo David for upper back thickness and traps pull to your upper abs/lower chest and for cable rows try pointing your elbows up a bit higher than usual and squeeze. I used to have no traps or upper back but after slowing down the reps and feeling each contraction they grew like crazy. Hope this helps!
just about to go do my pull session now what great timing! haha. you do exactly what I do 6 day ppl split with same exercises xD same build, height everything. Great video like always m8!
My traps sucked really bad just like yours, but then I started doing power cleans while focusing on pulling with my traps and my traps have really increased in only the 2 months I've been doing them. Try them out!
Try putting your thumb over the bar when doing pull ups if your goal is a wider back. And also using straps on pull ups is not bad. Its gonna help you pull through your elbows more.
I know this is an older video but if you really want to get a wider upper back, preferably you lats, I suggest you do wide grip lat pulldowns and between sets you need to stretch your lats by holding onto something while standing letting your bodyweight hang. Then after your lat pulldowns, do your pull-ups. I do them in that order and I have pretty nice wings. Try it out if you like
Hey David, I'm a bit late to your channel. It was the 560 pull that brought me, so sorry if this is a question you get a lot already, but are you planning to compete in Powerlifting? The pullups will help your upper back a lot. For your traps, I'm going to recommend overhead press. I know they have helped me a lot. Good luck with everything, lad.
Try leaning back just the slightest bit on lat pulldowns, I feel like it realy activates my back. If you hit traps 2-3 times a week they blow the fuck up too haha
David why do you destroy yourself when you say that you dont have traps and back and shit... Man you have the physique that millions of men want, you should be proud
Why don't you use seated rows or a t bar row? Rows will get upper back. For t bar if you let it just hang like you did with single arm dumbbell rows but instead on t bar, if your arms or "hand position" is more horizontal and is just hanging, you'll get that upper, trap, rear felt stretch. Idk see it if it works?
do you have any links to programs that you would recommend for someone that has been lifting "consistently" for about a month and a half now? Basically a beginner lol
Hi David, I'm from Brazil so please excuse any english mistakes... Just wanted to know if you have a trainer or are you the one who elaborates your workouts? Thanks (:
many people tell me that for shrugs i should look up while doing it, because i might put my head forward once i shrug up, it may cause my spine to adjust and my head may become permanently pushed out a bit. i want to know if this is true?
Haha, interesting, around 9 months ago I started doing the same routine you posted in QA video with a little modification (deadlift, bench and squat reps and sets are still the same) and my traps really improved since the start. Also, we have a similar body type (im a little shorter though) and are about the same age, im 18 now, so I would like to kinda thank you, because you were really one of the factors why I didn't give up. I came from 90lbs + olympic bar deadlift (I didn't do more because I was still learning the form at beggining) to p.r. 310lbs + olympic bar :)
+TheMan Back He never said anything about a 310lbs bench, if you read it again you will see he managed to get his deadlift up to 310lbs, hope you feel real stupid...😂
+TheMan Back Incase you miss it "i came from 90lbs + olympic bar deadlift...to p.r. 310lbs + olympic bar :)" notice the use of the word deadlift and the lack of any information regarding his bench press numbers...well done 😂
Im 13 and i can do 5 muscle ups in a row and deadlift 205 10 rep max. am i too young to start lifting? height 5'10" weight 130lbs. you really inspired me bro. pls reply
is 100 pull ups a day doable? alright im in that journey with you, i barely can get 10 in a set also i think its going to affect me on pull days but w/e, i can try
