Homie gets straight to the TLDR. But also plops in the science. But also also some humor to keep you engaged. And finally there's reminders to think critically sprinkled in. It's a great format, yeah, but it's also just your personality? Love your videos man. I learn something every time and not always just about lifting.
Just wanna take a moment to say Joe, your production quality along with the concise and articulate way you deliver the information in an easy to understand format, backed by visuals is fantastic, I have learned a lot from you over the years and in the current climate of the "fitness boom" where there is so much nonsense, misdirection and misinformation to sell supps & other junk your channel has always been a beacon of truth and quality... (and corny fish jokes). So thank you mate!
Your videos are always densely packed with good information. I love them. They make me have to watch multiple times to catch all the studies and understand them in the context of my own fitness journey. Keep killing it Joey D. 👊🏾 💥
This video has an excellent variety of exercises, and I'm going to implement them as replacements for others in the next few weeks for testing. +1 to you.
Gotta be one of the best fitness videos that I have ever watched, hands down. Fantastic, informative, and I feel like I'm walking away with concepts that I can apply to many different lifts, some not touched on in the video. Thank you ⭐
Joey D, Ive been using your free full-body workout template for about 2+ years now. Phenomenal results. Couldn't have the physic I have today without it. Ive changed a few exercises/rep ranges overtime on account of..boredom. Will be incorporating the info from this video into my next cycle. You've changed my life. Appreciate you.
Great informative video - this was exactly a topic I was wondering recently. Also surprised machines do better than cables. But key seems to be to keep variety, my upper lower split has two variations.
what I've learned today >> instead of replacing triceps push down from my exercise routine, I will try to add overhead triceps extension 2 sets to my workout routine. Thank you
I agree on almost everything, except the leg press. If stretch under tension in the goal then at the bottom of a leg press (max hip and knee flexion) we must aim for max load and that is achieved with a sled leg press, not with a lever leg press. It is possible to add heavy chains or rubber bands to compensate for the lack of tension at full extension on every squatting exercise. It's true that nothing beats machines in constant force throughout a curved movement, however, cables do a pretty good job at maximizing tension in the stretch position. With DBs, it can be tricky but it can be done too: think of side and rear raises lying on a bench but on your side so the weight is perpendicular to your extended arm, these require around half the weight compared to regular side raises o reverse flys to produce the same tension since they are so tough.
Joe, just wanted to say real quick that your videos have been such an inspiration for me. I started making my own yt vids a while ago and sometimes feel like quitting but it are these vids that inspire me to continue, even tho most of my content is quite different from your. Again, thanks!💪🏼
One more nuance to add. Machines often correct the tension curve as it forces a specific path. Free weights can be used well, but there's huge variation in how they are preformed. Mike Van Wyck goes over this very well. I've noticed much better connection when consciously fading in out of a movement while allowing the body to move how it wants (opposed to remaining supper stiff).
Thanks! I thought I was intelligent but I had trouble understanding the biomechanics until the end where you say that the point is to try and match the exercise to the strength curve of the movement.
Re: ham curls - saw a video earlier funnily enough saying that one should lean the torso forward as well on the seated ham curls and then start performing the exercise. Leaning forward then enhances the stretch somehow and really does the business.
for triceps, skull crushers with dumbells superset with close grip pressing once you got tired, aka mechanical dropset, THAT SHIT HITS THE ENTIRE TRICEPS SO GOOD GUYS, don't miss out on that exercise
I like the peckdeck and machine rear delt fly, but they can severely cut of the range of motion in relation to cables. You can easily lose 45° of ROM at peak contraction and peak stretch respectively.
True, but something else to consider: beyond a point muscle fibres (technically myofilaments inside the muscle fibre) overlap and drastically decrease the potential force output, which could mean that portion of the rep is the least important. That's not to say it's entirely irrelevant though, of course - just something to consider (that is beyond the scope of the video).
Hey mate, I said I'd give away a year free Push app access to one commenter under this video. Yours was chosen (I used a random comment picker). Drop your email address in a reply to this comment and I'll send you a link for the app. Or if you don't want it justly me know and I will choose somebody else. 👍
This might be a silly question but is it still possible to work the calves on the lever leg press in the same way it is on the sled leg press? Good video as usual!
Love the premise of the video Mr Bundy. Personally think it's important to also bear in mind that whilst some of these exercises are definitely more "optimal" than others, often, the most "optimal" exercise long-term is the one you enjoy the most. Of course, if you like two exercises equally... do the one that's more effective. If there's one you really enjoy and one you really dislike, I would lean towards doing the one that I like, even it's "less effective" Doing your hamstring curls seated rather than lying might be 5% more effective, but if you skip them every other week because you hate them, they're not very effective at all Most important thing about training is to enjoy it as much as possible, cos that's what makes you keep showing up Def agree with your selections from the video, just thought it's important to note this caveat. Just my own thoughts from 8+ years of training PS you are my hero
Seated incline curls have no tension at the stretch, there is more tension at the distal part of the bicep on preacher curls, even though the shoulder is flexed. So considering the resistance profile of these exercise is important to.
@@JoeDelaneyy I’ve been watching your videos since you were sponsored by fucking paragon. This is actually the first videos of yours I’ve watched in years and I’m not going to lie I was expecting a load of drone about stretch mediated hypertrophy but was actually impressed with the rationale behind your choices and the biomechanics knowledge 👍🏼
