Truth

I'm cursing you that you'll gain 10 pounds of tissue😏

Gonna be a growing experience ✊🏻

🦾😁

Hi I’m kozmo You seem oddly familiar…

I don’t understand? The first 10 seconds of the video is us doing it. And cut in through the video

@@HypertrophyCoach My bad, I didn't even realize the first 10 seconds was the JM Press. I've never seen it before and just thought you were doing close grip BP variation. Tried scrolling through the video and didn't see the cut in until I went back after your comment. Thanks for responding!

Really? Now elbow pain? I get elbow pain really easily these days, it has halted my progress quite a lot because I have to change exercises. I would imagine that would create elbow pain too. You get pain with skullcrushers or no?

@@joojotin no honestly I thought the same. No idea why? Maybe it's the smith or the angle but bringing it down to the front delt/neck as per the video works a treat. Tey it & let me know how you get on.

@@christianbolger2146 sounds nice I will try it tomorrow👍 this exercise might be exactly what I need if there is no pain.

@@christianbolger2146 update, there is zero pain with this exercise and was able to go really heavy for a tricep exercise. Thanks for commenting here I wouldnt have tried it otherwise. 🙏

@@joojotin that's brilliant. Told you it works. Keep it on weekly & they will grow. Good man

French press right?

@@martieboy01 yeah but I actually never heard the exercise be called a French press before lol

@@martieboy01 Nah French press is double handing a dumbbell behind your head. Just heard someone call it recently a power bomb? I don’t get what people are calling this shit anymore 😂

Youll get a bigger stretch on the long head of the triceps and may benefit from stretch mediated hypertrophy although the load on the triceps in this lengthened position will not be at a maximum as the torque on the tris approaches zero as you stretch, depending on how you execute your skull crushers

This was the exact question I came to ask as well!

You can put the bench in a slight decline relative to the angle of the smith machine

@@Ashok_._ you Are a genius!

may not work for everyone, variations will just be where you lower the bar to on your body

Yes

I think that Shd work the Tricep even at the top most point, since there will be a moment arm from the elbow. Not so much as the JM but better than keeping the bar/DB in front.

The moment arm does shorten, it just may not shorten to zero. Despite popular belief cables cannot provide constant tension though they do give you the ability to manipulate the resistance profile. If the cable is 90 degrees to your forearm (in this case the forearm is the moment arm), torque will be at a maximum and then as the angle between your forearm and the cable decreases from 90 degrees the force on the triceps will reduce. In the case of a tricep extension, moment arm length is not the only factor that determines the change in force, Torque = Length x Force x Sine (angle). As your forearm cannot change in length, and the weight stack provides constant force with gravity, the angle between your forearm and the cable will be the only thing that will influence torque on the triceps

@@tomauty3318 Dense with info and knowledge. Great response Tom!

all heads, potentially more lateral and medial though

overhead exercises will fully lengthen the tricep as the long head crosses the shoulder girdle and thus the humerus needs to be in flexion to fully stretch the tricep, however some overhead extensions will have little to no torque on the triceps in the complete stretch depending on how you set them up, exercises selection and exercise execution. Cable overhead extensions and JM presses have different but equally value application to a training program

From experience, seems to be easier on elbows using Smith.

Nope

@@HypertrophyCoach Even with the more neutral grip of the dumbbells vs being fully pronated on the smith?

@@godsgiftto3arth despite dumbbells allowing you to have a neutral grip vs fully pronated on the smith? Maybe my elbows are weird, but they ache on the smith, lol

@@cyclist5000 attach straps to the smith bar that act as handles so you can maintain a neutral grip. also the higher up you lower the bar the more comfortable pronation will be i believe

Smith will help with this

And much smaller 😂

No because the distance between the elbow and the line of force is zero. Torque is T=Length x Force x sin(angle). In this case the length of the moment arm is zero. The will still be some front delt because the upper arm has to move but the force it experiences is a lot less than the force the triceps experience so it will be a triceps bias movement

Damnit mom

this will too most likely

🤦‍♂️

Cool. Do a video. Label it however you want

@@HypertrophyCoach Im sure being on RU-vid you get a lot of dick comments. However, you are also on here asking for people to subscribe, watch your videos, and follow your advice. So, sometimes you might also get comments from people that do what you are on youtube for and ask for in the beginning of every video. They follow you, and spend their time on youtube listening to you. They follow your advice, and training opinions. They appreciate your time making videos, and even state it in other videos. ( None of those comments got such a snappy response. Let alone one at all.) So, sometimes you will just get feedback/advice/constructive criticism from the people following you. Things that help them search your videos or help you with what other videos to make. Again, these are things that you ask for. You cant jump back at every comment on here that isnt exactly positive, and you get what you call “feels” about. Is it “cool” that nowhere in this video did you talk about how to do a JM press, and you made a video for people and followers on how to do a JM press? How would you have liked me to phrase the comment? “Would you please make a video on how to do a JM press?” Wouldnt that sound like a passive aggressive dick comment like “cool”? Come on, brother.. You cant talk like the youtube comment section to fight the youtube comment section. Maybe as a disclaimer I should have put again that I appreciate your time prior to the comment.

Then watch the first 10 seconds of the video

Please clarify “the biomechanics are the worst”. That’s like saying: don’t eat that cause it’s “unhealthy for you” without any actual evidence or substance.

@@HypertrophyCoach sure: unless you absolutely force your humerus super close to your ribcage, so that forearma and humerus are directly above each other, the force of the barbell is going to not be in line with the movement of the joint. In fact is almost impossible to achieve this unless you have a neutral grip aka dumbbells or maybe a football bar. So the way youre demonstarting it here, elbow movement and movement of the load are not aligned, so to compensate the humerus has to rotate. We neither want to force that super tucked position not do we want the humerus to rotate when we just want to load ellbow extension. All shit that can easily be avoided by using cables

@@horsiemetaldetecting5975 What if someone doesn’t have access to cables? What exercise would you recommend instead of this JM press?

@@kozmo7 id recommend a db tricep extension on an(not too steep) incline. So it would look similar to what hes doing here but with dumbbells and on an incline. Youll have the issue that you would need to force your humerus in a vertical positonj which then disengages the long head. But i find that its not too bad if you allow your humerus to be at an angle as long as it doesnt cause pain

@@horsiemetaldetecting5975 Wouldn’t a JM press be fine then based on the mechanics of the tricep? I’m not quite understanding how a db tricep extension with a slight incline would provide better leverages compared to a JM press let’s say where one could overload using a barbell and not worry as much about single arm stabilization I really don’t know things, trying to understand various opinions on this Thank you

You could say the same thing about literally every exercise. We all better not workout at all. Just to be safe.

You’ve come to the wrong channel. There are plenty of other people out there pointing at their muscles as the do exercises. This is a place if you actually wanna understand stuff.
