MASTER THESE THREE LIFTS TO BE SET UP FOR SUCCESS IN ALL OF YOUR TRAINING | MIKE VAN WYCK 

I read somewhere: whenever philosophy behind a task is taken out, the quality of work deteriorates. This is why I think Big Mike is an absolute philosopher when it comes to training. He reinforces this very fact that I just mentioned above. He always brings out interesting and logical concepts. For example: like why it's not just about A to B-eing the dumbell bench and it's more about letting the weight sink in, getting the back contracted using the inertia and then throwing up. I am glad you started this channel and it's helping me a lot man. I've really improved my physique and feeling muscles working like never before, especially my back, triceps, and chest. Keep them videos coming man, I'm here for more wisdom 🙏

Thank you Professor Mike, your contribution makes humanity better.

You and Cbum should collab

Treating the negative on db press as a row was huge for me personally

Who's looking forward to the next training session? LIIIIIFFFFTTTT !!!!

It’s because he’s the truth. The road is always narrow. Hopefully, the algorithm will catch up.

You are correct on everything , 1000 per cent correct , on lateral raise, elbow higher than the hand on an/ad duction.also shoulders move independent of torso, most people in gym can’t do this, on the chest press, people in gym unless they come from gymnastics or mma etc can’t depress and retract the scapula, so just telling them to won’t help, they don’t understand why a pull up is a back exercise and they tell me things like they are using the lat pulldown machine to work their chest. They don’t have any resistance going into the ground, their feet are dead, they can’t even bend their knees and they stand with their feet touching each other and they don’t understand what we mean by working the negative. Again everything you say is brilliant , but I don’t think they can do it and they keep doing those ridiculous shrugs, they won’t lower the weight to learn the exercise because they don’t understand that unless you are learning the exercise the weight is insignificant. , like it’s not the weight it’s using the muscle the exercise is intended for sorry for the rant

Great teachings!!

True facts Mike 💪🏽Great content!

Thanks coach

I think I overthought things so much over the years. I’m feeling more stimulation and getting more growth now at 42 than ever using Mike’s techniques. I always tried to “ use” the muscle too much I guess if I’m saying it right. You can’t really use your chest in a press. You’re using your hands and arms. Same with my back. When I try and contract my back during a row I think I’m making it hard on myself instead of just driving elbows back and pulling and letting the contraction happen on its own

Incredible cues

Excellent content 🔥

Amazing tips. Love your info. Wish you were my coach. Could not afford you 😢

nice kicks mike ✌

I still don't understand how you only have 129K subscribers. Great content as always Mike.

Mike's camera person did some filming for the hosstile supplement companies RU-vid channel for the Arnold classic this year it was great camera work

God I wish I had access to this knowledge 20 years ago

Dear Mike I tried this exercise sometimes I feel tension on triceps but more on delt

Mike I just hopped on your channel and in a month have learned so much from you !! 💪🏻💪🏻 Thank you for sharing your knowledge!! 🙏 On your merchandise online when will you be restocking on your shirts ?

Hi Mike, is there anything you can teach us on the smith machine

Fred Flinstones feet... hahaha I've done that. Just happens naturally 😂

On the dumbbell press, are you engaging lats as well(similar to the first exercise) to push the triceps off of? Keeping elbows in? Elbows in keeps my shitty shoulder happier.

My lower lat got soar from doing incline and haven't done incline bench in 2 years. I'm not worried about it, but does that mean I'm doing something wrong?

My shoulder pops every time I do these, not too sure why

I don't get the swing. Why not just full rom above ears only using shoulders, with no swing at all?

But this lateral raises (I love it no problem) doesn’t emphasis on the front delt more than lateral delt ? Baised on the path of the movement ? Simple question Thanks a lot for all you do

@3:09 is that a wild Viet-cong STEVE ? training in the background ?

Make men like Mike again 😂

God forbid the weight go down should be on a shirt. And to be honest it’s something i struggle with.

Yeah, OK tight T-shirt, boy

💪🇳🇴

I've been natural my entire life...why would I copy the "pebble" and start slamming anabolic now...

Rocking with the weight??? This is terrible advice

Grandpa bod detected. Advice ignored

LoL his training is awful .. take away the anabolics, peptides etc and he looks like the 50 something year old that he is lol

And don’t buy the Rocks clothing line! It’s overpriced Garbage

Wow, this video is mind-blowing! I never knew this could be so fascinating.

Isn’t this the guy that got linked by @noonessafe ?
