“The average bodybuilders legs looked like this” *shows the greatest quad stomp of all time from Jay*

not featuring Markus Rühl in the Mass Monster era is a crime

Honestly if they taught history like this at school, I'd actually look forward to it! Great video Jesse!

Homie just straight up took the will Tennesseans video

9:55 , Legend says that he's still waiting on someone to dab him up.

This video demonstrates one thing very well. That there isn't just a blueprint to "how to exercise to gain mass/strength/endurance" there are countless ways people tried over the years to improve in this sport, there isn't just one way and you need to find what works best for you. Don't follow blindly into someone else training regiment, I mean you can if it works for you but you don't have to. Great video as always.

We need you oiled up Jesse 💀

Bro I’m sorry but I am not paying 55 dollars for a t-shirt.

Hey great commitment man! Great work! You’re such an inspiration!!!

Idk why but you guys always make me inspired. Just looking at your guy's body I can tell you guys really work. I started a fitness journey at the age of 9. Now I'm 12 and I've got a lot of progress. Stay Relentless!

Love your content jesse, keep it up Bud

idk if its just me but I can tell when jesse pushes himself to make a video about something he really likes, like bodybuilding

Mike Mentzer did 4 second negatives and 4 seconds eccentrics. With a static hold of 2 seconds in contracted position. It makes every exercise much harder. You should try it!

Old-School physiques are the most aesthetic. No comparison with today's mass monsters. I always tell young guys that one of the best things you can do as a lifter interested in aesthetics / performance / strength is to study Old-School bodybuilding. Old-School bodybuilders were ingenious physique architects. They had a profound knowledge of the principles of proper nutrition, smart supplementation, exercise science, and muscle adaptability. If you combine Old-School bodybuilding wisdom with modern, evidence-based science, it's the best, safest, most effective way in achieving a strong, sexy, healthy, and aesthetic physique. "Vintage Physique" by George Kelly is a nice read on the topic.

This is such an entertaining and educational video! I’m learning a lot and appreciate how far fitness has come ❤️ and you made learning about the fitness eras fun, Jesse!

Love this style of video! You’re on top!

Great content...loved the comparisons and to be honest i love them all each for different teasons

A few months ago at 13 I'd walk around sucking in my stomach, I was so conscious and never wanted to be shirtless. But through the help of the fitness community and people like David Goggins, i can now say I am in the best shape of my life, going to the gym and no longer sucking in.

Great video!! You're one of the best fitness youtubers out there right now!!!

Jesse you are real inspiration to both men and women. U REALLY CAME A LONG WAY. KEEP IT UP 🫶🏼

Actually met him in Toronto airport on the way to film this. Glad to see it out and keep up the work!

This video is amazing because you can tell how into the history you are. Inspirational🔥

Jesse im glad you mentioned Mike Mentzer becayse I do his training and it is insane...especially slow and steady with Heavy weights

Great video as always! I know it's not as shocking, but would be interested in learning about similar historic progression with natural bodybuilding and strength training.

Where is the German Gang🇩🇪💪🏽

Such a informative episode! Thanks for this

I love what do Jesse , keep up the great work 🔥❤️

Derek Lunsford and Jesse James West is the best combo🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥im gonna need a full video with y'all two

Best content I seen on RU-vid in a long ass time massive fan of your videos

The time is changing a lot faster than expected 2004 is far than 2040 and also new era will be coming untile than so i would say stay fit Jessie no oilling up -stat relentless

FYI to get the right intensity for a mentzler workout you need to be well rested for days going into it, otherwise, your body will not allow you to push hard enough

love the content jesse

Jesse YOU'RE A SICK DUDE ! keep it going man.

This was a great watch! So fun and informative

love you videos ive now been on a weightloss journey for 18 months now i started at 350lbs im now sub 200lbs your videos have helped alot ♥

I’m traing for hypertrophy and I’m doing a little like Mike mentz and tbh? I loveeee the style, one hour of the gym. Warm up, heavy weight and repping it out

Lets go another banger from jesse 🔥🔥

hey, Jesse you inspired me to workout i have been watching for a little bit now. also i'm 16 years old and i am 140 lb my bench is 225

Mass monster era was so much fun, but cant deny the Mentzer HIT is getting v popular these days...

huge respect for the amount effort youve put in into making this video jesse, keep it up and never back down ❤❤

Great write as always Jessie, wish I could get a workout with you sometime!

I personally think that this is your best video till date

Pushing 30 and voice cracking is crazy

This video was amazing, i loved it

That Arnold gap and the "Get the pump, one more" was hilarious🤣

Jessie getting pounded by all those big bois in Compton was so juicy. Love the content. Keep getting sweaty and hammered! Keep packing it in nice and hard! Love the content!

Why you have never made a video on resistance BAND? i just started them and they are so amazing.

We already have 100 years of fast food, school lunch, snacks, girl makeup, girl hair style, guy hair stlye What's next

my local gym is from the bronze era. I love it

What a quality content …so much of work

This was such an awesome video ! ❤

I've heard that the reason antagonistic supersets can feel easier is that normally antagonistic muscles resist each other a little (for example triceps resist a little during biceps curls), but since they're fatigued, they resist less than they normally would.

Great content here Jesse !

love it always great ideas.

By far my favourite all time video 👊🏽🙏🏾

Road to 5 million ❤ less go!!

Why did that Arnold gap actually make you look like Arnold 😂

Great video bro!! But one thing you got wrong was Mike controlled the negatives… after not being able to go up he would have some one help him do more reps in the negative

bench press was only popularized in the silver era, thats why you see such a big difference in chest size between the two eras

if youve ever seen mike menzers workout youd know he called it "1 working set" but his several warmup sets were more intense than most peoples actual workout

Love that you show Heavy Duty, Mentzer was a genius

One of the best episodes ive seen on the channel

Honestly another reason im never taking PED is cuz of how fit and chill you are bro, Definitely always dropping fire content🔥📹

I wonder how many deaths and injuries occurred during early days of bodybuilding with the primitive equipment. Great content too Jesse!

4:08 when Jesse says this next excerise is a “chest exercise” yes with speech marks is just crazy and I do think the bodybuilder he mentioned was a great bodybuilder but yeah we really came a long way in terms of bodybuilding since that point so everyone’s necessary practices to reach their goals at the gym are easier

Awesome video and informational

Globe weights could be adjusted in 1/3 oz increments on each side using cap n ball lead (round bullets.) Mike Brown made a 2.5lb "sticking point smashers' that allow this on a plate loaded bar, combined with lots of liver powder and steak and eggs; one could develop quite the physique with that tool.

Este tipo de videos son geniales. These types of videos are great. More like this

Would be sick to see you try out as many diffrent protein powders in the market!

bro u didnt even hit close to the Mentzer level of failure, static holds, negative strength etc. is what he was famous for

5:38 Alex eubank made me remember is that boxing match of yours still happening? 😂

Jesse or his editor really loves that dramatic sound effect!!

Dam this was a quality vid, subbed up

The poses in 1913 were so beautiful though, seriously. I think this has to be my favorite era. Combining strength and bodybuilding.

As Arnold said, the problem with Mentzer style high intensity training is that it's easy to burn out on it. The main difference between yesterday's bodybuilding and today's is that older era bodybuilders could only get much of their information from magazines or gym bros. Today, we have all kinds of resources, especially social media, videos, and so on. Now, we can learn all we want about proper form, supplements, and steroids. What may be harder today is getting high quality PEDs and navigating around the legal system.

Great video Jesse!

Great show Look forward to the beach body era

These equipments are sick! They look so cool

Ronnie screaming is one of the best thing ever. It cures depression

When this man called the dumbbell a cucaracha instead of a maraca, I died! 😂 This man is a terrible Puerto Rican! Still a fun vid tho.

thanks to jesse and will, i can see the same videos twice 💀🥰

I have a feeling this is going to be a nice day and a nice video because when he posts a video it is going to be a nice video and day❤❤❤❤❤

Awesome video!!

The vaude era is my favorite for the unique & challenging exercises.

Even though professional bodybuilding is all about comparison, i think Ronnie Coleman & Jay Cutler both did great. Not to mention others like Kevin Levrone (1999)... these are all legends of the sport.

I actually snorted laughing when Jesse stubbed his toes 😅

Love you jesse

Golden era was definetly the best. These days it's all about "anabolic windows" and "scientifically proven" stuff, but back then it was just about lifting weights and getting big

Will tenyson did it first just like the rest of his vids😂

Great video Jesse 👍🏻

I love doing Eugene Sandow's workouts! 💪

Thanks for the pic and the signature at the convention center

Happy to see you maintain a healthy bodyfat jesse!

I watch old videos of gym and gym equipment so I can get inspiration for what I can build for my home gym

Jesse the goat

Spot on with our moms working out in the living room to a dvd vid lmao

in some old gyms in morocco, i've trained in early 2010 in gyms having same dumbels and equipements
