What Most People Don’t Understand About the Bent Over Row with Dr. John Jaquish 

Since ordinary people always want to see the biceps, it’s necessary to train them well.

Is it for real? Debating whether to get

Have you found the limited set of bands enough to get the right amount of force in different exercises ?

@@peter.karlsson I haven't been able to go from the light gray band to the dark gray band, so I purchased smaller bands from Serious Steel and I combine them with the light gray band until I can use the dark gray band. I bought a 41" purple band and a 41" orange band. That is a perfect solution for me.

@@peter.karlsson No. I ended up purchasing a 41" purple band and a 41" orange band from Serious Steel to combine with the light gray band, because, at first, I couldn't make the jump from the light gray band to the dark gray band. So, depending on the exercise, I combine one of those Serious Steel bands with the light gray band and that works perfectly for me. Just the right amount of extra resistance.

@@wholearmor Ok, thanks that's valuable info!

@@peter.karlsson Ya man!

Brother I’ve been using this thing for about a year now and it’s worth it: gains, saves time and no more driving to the gym. All my friends have asked me what changed since I’m back to peak form and it’s because of the x3

Thats great, thanks for sharing your experience.

bent rows and deadlifts with the x3 bar will grow your back, yes.

no it will make it Growww

I don’t think that’s the proper way to measure it’s practicality: How often are we lifting things from our chest while laying horizontally on a bench? How often do we use a full range of motion (or favor its weakest portion) to lift very heavy stuff? How often do professional athletes aiming to build strength and endurance in the gym limit themselves to only emulating the movements and loads they have on the field?

@@fedest Free weights comes much closer to everyday movements.

@@jonhohensee3258 not necessarily. The movements are basically the same; the difference is how in how much load you handle at each part of the movement. And while it’s true that on everyday life you rarely deal with loads that vary throughout a movements (and that’s more like free weights), it’s also true that you rarely handle loads (especially heavy loads) through the whole range of a movement in everyday life. Anyways, that doesn’t seem to be the right measure of effectiveness of a workout program (if anything, how the workout translates to everyday movements, but not how similar it feels during the workout).

@@fedest Yes necessarily. There are no objects that you would lift in regular daily life that get heavier as you progress through the lifting motion. It's that simple. And how it translates to regular life IS the correct measure or standard by which to judge the value of a workout. The only exception would be if you're a bodybulder - who works out for appearance.

@@jonhohensee3258 There are very few objects that you would lift in regular daily life that are as convenient to grip and as evenly balanced as barbells, but that doesn't mean that barbell training is useless, although that's the kind of flawed reasoning that you are using. Furthermore, how often in regular daily life do you favor the weakest part of a range of motion (or a full range of motion), when you need to lift, carry, pull or push heavy stuff, as opposed to taking advantage of the strongest part of your range? For example, if you need to carry a heavy box to another room, do you walk with it mostly upright, or do you go all the way down on every step (like doing lounges)? Regarding how something translates to every day life being the goal, I guess that's not universal, and depends on your every day life, (I personally prefer to workout to get beyond what I need for my desk-oriented daily life), but thats a different matter. Even if we agree that's the goal, how something TRANSLATES into daily life is a very different thing to how much it RESEMBLES the daily life target (and that's what I tried to express in the previous post when I used the world "translates"). For example: there are plenty of good core exercises that are mostly done horizontally, like planks, etc. Those generally TRANSLATE very well into helping someone keep a better upright posture in regular daily life, despite not requiring you to be upright during the workout. Under that same premise, the fact that stretching elastic bands has different characteristics than lifting objects, is not sufficient argument to claim it can't TRANSLATE well to everyday life activities, including (but not limited to) lifting object.

😂

which you actually can build here too.

they would if it was possible to go to absolute fatigue with weights in one set, which it isn't. that's why they do multiple sets of different weights to fully exhaust the muscle, which x3 does in one go.

Timmy - Your first sentence is a statement, not a question.

@@xada2397 yes, it’s called a mechanical drop set, which many bodybuilders do, but admit that “unless you have a friend who is pulling the plates off between sets, isn’t as effective as it could be” … which the x3 appears to do, naturally.

@@jameslincoln4154 well said.

???

Why do you care what other men do w their bodies lmao

Who are you looking at ? Where do you see that?

Grown supposedly masculine men??? Do you think a hairy is more masculine? It shows off muscle definition in the forearms. But surely you knew that!

This is one of the gayest things I’ve read on RU-vid

@@Sagaofsr He didn't say he cared, he said he didn't understand.

I'm sorry, but your comment regarding "unloading" at contraction makes zero sense. The intensity of load should increase and get harder as we contract muscles in a "pulling", or "curling" motion for max stimulation and time under tension. Not sure what you are referring to in your initial comment here? AS far as the $500-600 bucks... well, we can maybe agree that that's somewhat stupid pricey, but I guess it depends on time savings and overall effectiveness and efficiency for time spent on pieces of training to see great results?

@TheJellMaster thats not how strength curves work, on pulling exercises the resistance should decrease because your mechanical advantage gets much worse as you go into contraction. This is how the beat leverage machines are set up (HS etc) Bands are great for pushing and Janquish is a tren abusing scammer

Pricey, compared to what? A home gym would be similar if not more. A gym membership would be the same price for a year, then this would be superior. Seems like a bargain if you actually use it.

its wrong for pushing to some degree atleast for chest, which is why you can preload.. but for pulling? and since partial reps are king for hypertrophy i doubt that highly. also you work every part of the rom since rom gets smaller with fatigue anyways.

You prove you can’t teach stupid or illiterate
