@@jimperry4420 Yes. He and Brian both have very kind eyes and demeanors. Pretty sure Brian would eat me whole, and then apologize for his lack of self-control. 😂
I hope this series continues until all muscle groups are covered. The episodes are very informative and very useful in order to create a good training program. Thank you doctor, keep it up!
The lamest joke ever. Men with extra body hair have much more testosterone, last longer and are the best lovers. And behind the keyboard it's easy to talk smak, isn't it?
proper form on barbell curl demonstrated at 8:54. Note that this turns curls into a full body movement, involving calves, back, neck. very functional!!!
@@TheAlexmercer360batmanfan I'd like to agree but the word "functional" is slippery. If you're exercising, you presumably have some kind of reason for doing it. If the exercise is well suited to your abilities and your goals, it is a "functional" exercise for you.
Brilliant communicator, and incredibly generous with your expertise. Thanks Dr Mike. Loving using your programing template for physique. Worth every penny
This is insane... I started watching your hypertrophy guide today and was thinking "man why isn't there any video for biceps" and now it's here... Also thanks for the information, I appreciate the work put into this.
Vielen Dank für diese tolle Video. Ich freue mich immer riesig, wenn ich mir weiteres Wissen, tolle Ideen oder auch einfach interessante Kameraeinstellungen etc. aneignen kann, um meine eigenen Videos auf ein neues Level zu bringen. Und dieses Video hat mich wieder ein ganzes Stück weitergebracht. Danke dafür :)
Take care of your biceps tendons. The big one inside the elbow can get inflammation/overuse and that inflammation (or whatever it is) messes up upper body workouts pretty badly. As the Hairy Wise Man says: take care of your connective tissue. Don't go crazy with weights and/or volume unless it's well planned.
My biceps get sore so quickly always been a week area have been incorporating this now I can feel my muscles contract. The third about about shoulder extension helped slow when preforming a curl
When Calculating the volume of work done, superset is equivalent to multiple sets..?? If I do 3 supersets of 3 exercise is it equivalent of doing 9 normal sets or 3 normal sets with more intensity.. Please give a clarification..??
Question regarding all muscle groups. If maintenance is so low shouldn't you just do maintenance while cutting? Any benefit to doing any more while cutting? Like maintaining more muscle?
Are hammer curls considered a set for bicep isolation? Or is it more forearms? Like if I do underhand bet over rows I will do hammer curls for bicep isolation
So if i do less than 8 reps in each set of Biceps Curls then that means i have to lower the weight until i can do 8-15 in each set? I can go heavy on a certain weight but the range is usually 4-9.
For those who don't have time to do 25 sets of curls(which is a waste of time) compound movements are the best use of time. Rows, pull-ups with weight if possible, farmers carrys all for me are more effective than curls. Farmers carry may be the most underrated exercise in the gym because it works grip, arms, back, conditioning all at once. Amd once I started adding strongman movements I really started growing.
With training 4-5 sets to failure on pullups, I figure my biceps likely cannot handle too much more anyway, but, I do throw in a set or two to failure on curls at the end (meaning after shoulders and even traps/shurgs) 'just because'! (I figure as long as I can gain at least a rep every 5-6 days with a given weight, I am getting stronger!) My almost 59 year old self now seems to do better with at least 4 and sometimes 5 days off between upper body workouts--sprinting on the treadmill twice a week via sprint intervals likely does not exactly help with speeding recovery as well)
