You and the late great Mr. John Meadows are who I use for training advice. Great stuff man, your a beast and a fountain of knowledge... Appreciate you man!
Just wow! Breaking elbow with the lateral raise just seems so effective as you explain it. Gonna try this for sure! Always have done the straight arm version.
Been watching and rewatching your chest and back videos and really felt the difference in practice dude. Dropped the weight on almost every exercise and happier for it. Time to dial in your shoulder movements. Ive always struggled to 'feel' side and rear delts so hoping i can really make a change there too. Thanks for the content mate its gold 👌
Thanks for going into detail here Mike. First seen it with you training shoulders with I think Antonie a while back on the HD channel. Never quite felt like I was doing them right, thinking more out than up.
Back to class with iron Mike! Great shoulder technique.. the slightly bent over shoulder tip is epic! Staying forward and posture is the key. Thanks for bringing us another great bodybuilding lifting session👊
Good stuff! I did 3 sets on the bench/training wheels then went 3 sets heavier leaning standing up. Wow the pump was intense! I also used my wraps on the standing sets. For me that light grip assistance helped to stay connected and not worry about grip.
Thank you for another amazing tip!! Could you please elaborate does the crack of elbow mean we should do it as a row or a little bit of internal rotation or a combination
Hello Wyck, hows it going? Like your training methods and I am definitely going to use this in my routine. However, the only issue I have with your explanation is that a newbie is going to think it is the elbow and arms carrying the weight. From what I gather, the connection still has to be made with the side delt--Lean forward, elbow bent slightly, relax, let the side delts swing in a partial format for a few times, then make the connection and lift while bringing up elbows and chest at the same time in order to reach a full range of motion in order to move heavier weight at the same time
I enjoy dumbell lateral raises, especially drop sets. But I also take a seated cable row machine and do laying cable lateral raises . Usually a triple drop off those and superset it with standing cable rear delt flys. For me that has increased delt size and a pump like no other for them.
Videos like this are more mind-blowing to me than anything being touted by the “biomechanics experts.” Just little details, like how your traps “disappear” in the mirror, make the logic of the movement come together. So cool.
This is by far the most incorrect performed exercise by beginners. It took me a while before I learned the correct form to finally feel the contractions ,felt the soreness in the following days and finally see growth. Thank you for explaining it so clearly Mike.
I started most of your delt moves today and even though I suffer from spondylosis, my back was good AND I swear my Delts seem fuller.. I know I know but wait til I get a couple of sessions in and then watch out flex wheeler, justin Compton and Markus ruhl. I must've fell asleep cuz I'm dreaming 😛
Hi Mike. I feel elbow pain whenever I try to increase the weight while during lateral. Can you share what maybe going wrong. There is swelling at the elbow almost like some gel
@@MikeVanWyck thanks. I was only looking for any advice on possible wrist or elbow position that may be causing the pain or stress at the elbow joint given your experience.
I actually do have problems with the positioning in 1:45 Bc I have a cyst on my T5-10. The bench does help, but what would u recommend bc my Delts are 1 of my weakest defined body parts
Not a bodybuilder But the video has a point about the bench movement being the training tool for the standing position to lift more weight I done it the bench way to train the body on getting to lift more in this motion In between a bent barbell superset to gather the strength in the target muscle groups Standing Lateral raise is much stronger now
"But...but...you're rocking your torso back and worth! That's using momentum! That's cheating!" Says the 150lbs 'expert' doing his strict 15lbs side raises with poker straight posture.
Nice crossfit shoulder workout. Dont listen to this numpty. You're better off doing these strict and keeping the tension on your delts on the conc and ecc. Remember, your body doesnt care about the amount of weight you lift. The only thing matters is the stimulus you get from the lift.
why not just do an upright row and leave lateral raises to burn out the muscle and take it to failure and beyond? i see no point in doing lateral raises with 60’s lol
@@emehhjzeks9486 He said IF your form is shit theres no point. Upright row targets a lot of trap. When you're bodybuilding the primary focus is to isolate the muscle.
