Chest and Back Workout
A chest-and-back superset workout lets you move challenging weights; you'll wind up doing major movements, such as bench presses and rows, and by lifting heavy weights, you'll spur your body towards muscle growth.
If you're concerned about whether it's safe to train back and chest on the same day, rest assured, it's totally safe and is considered a very common training split. Exercises can be done safely if you manage the number of training sets, the intensity of weights, the difficulty of sets, and rest times appropriately.

Squats Workout
Переглядів 1774 роки тому
Quads tend to grow from a diversity of loading (and thus repetition) ranges. Sets as low as 6 reps work great for more explosive, fast-twitch dominant individuals, but they are the exception rather than the rule. For most lifters, sets of 8-15 reps are nearly ideal for quads, and sets of as many as 20 reps can be done on machines because each rep doesn’t take as long to complete and the back is...

Shoulders and Arms Workout
Переглядів 2324 роки тому
Because shoulders and arms are relatively small muscle groups, you can work them together on the same day without overtaxing the nervous system. However when doing a shoulder, biceps and triceps workout routine together, do be diligent when planning the rest of your lifting week to leave at least 48 hours of rest between muscle groups worked.

My Routine 3 Month Cancer Appointment July 2019
Love my tricep bar.
great video man this helped me so much! i just one of those tricep bars recently and i didn’t know what do really do with it
Dang, thx for the tips brother. It’s been over 30 yrs since I used the tricep Olympic bar and decided to try it out after watching your video. I got a great pump and no pain on my 52 yr old body! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Good 👍 video.
@@jamie.777 thank you 🙏🏾
🔥🔥🔥
Have to ask,is Drew still training/ healthy? I'm kinda out of the loop
What beat is this
An overlooked piece of equipment .....great video!
Thank you so much! 🙏🏾
Great stuff!
I hate to cook. Thank you for this easy recipe.
Great video 💯
many thanks,was wondering how to use this thing and this had stuff i didnt even consider like the rows for the back.
I've got an hammer bar but aside from tricep and and hammer curls, i dont use it much. You gave me a couple more ideas in workouts that I could do using it.
Nice video
Great channel, Drew! 👍Greetings from a subscriber from Denmark
Seated incline looks much more comfortable tho.
I have a Hammer curl bar never used it much _ but will start this routine today it's a new addition to my workouts!!!
I tell my son constantly that the basics work better than anything. You don't have to get fancy, Just an old school workout. All these new fitness gurus trying to get you to do fancy workouts and these workouts can actually get you injured quick
I couldn’t agree more. The classic physique looks more natural also anyway. Thanks for watching! 👊🏾
The absolute best variation for pullovers. I just started using a tricep bar for pullovers, and am amazed at the lat and chest activation without any shoulder discomfort.
I’m glad you’re feeling the same benefits I have been with this variation! Thanks for watching the video! 👊🏾💪🏾💯
Good to see you're well brother
Thank you! Blessings 🙏🏾 💪🏾
Nice to see you’re back in the game 🏋🏿♀️
Blessings Curt! Thanks 🙏🏾 👊🏾
Glad see u back my dude bless
Blessings my brother! 🙏🏾🖤👊🏾
Glad that you're making vids again bro! 👊🏾
Blessings king! 👑 👊🏾
Yes! was thinking the worst with the distinct lack of videos lately mate but great to see that you're fighting fit again man.
Thanks bro! I’m still here! Blessings to you
My man,good to see you back,looking good,hope to see you in church soon brother..bless 👊🏻

EXCELLENT VIDEO BEEN LOOKIN FOR EXERCISES WITH THIS TYPE OF BAR
Thanks bro! Glad you liked the video! Thanks for watching 👊🏾💯
@@drewflex7136 HEY MR DREW DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE WORKOUT VIDEOS USING THE HAMMER CURL BAR?? WOULD LOVE TO INCORPORATE MORE MORE EXERCISES INTO MY WORKOUT REGIMEN
thanks so much for the workout
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching this video!
Thank you kindly....!!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video. Thank You
Thank you bro! 👊🏾
Wow! You gave alot variations on using this bar. Excellent tutorial.
Thank you! Blessings 🙏🏾👊🏾
Kinda wish companies would make a swiss bar that can use standard one inch palates.
That would be a good thing I agree. Make it more accessible to everyone. 💯👊🏾
Mirafit in the uk do one in standard I have ordered one.
@@mooker5600 Thanks for the info. I wish they shipped internationally i would definitely purchase me one.
@@Began2011 Oh sorry. I didn't know they only shipped in UK. I checked their faq and it says they hope to do international deals in the future. They seem to sale the standard swiss bar more than the olympic so there is definitely a market. Hopefully as the swiss bar takes hold and gathers more popularity, other manufacturers around the world make standard swiss bars easier to come by.
Great video.
Thank you bro!
I just got a tricep bar from mirrafit. Thanks for the tips mate
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching the channel 👊🏾
What kind of cancer?? 😲
I have Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia. A type of blood cancer.
@@drewflex7136 You got this bro. Kick it's ass. Mind over matter my friend.
@@sixforks6543 thank you so much. Blessings always 🙏🏾💯
is it possible to do the bulgarian split squats with the hammer bar?
I have not tried this so honestly I would not be able to provide a definite answer regarding that. I suppose it could work but the position of the arms would be higher than when using a straight bar.
Good content brotha✊🏽
Thank you brother! Much respect 👊🏾
Thanks OG , just grabbed a tricep bar.
Thank you bro! I hope you find these exercises helpful. 👊🏾
How you doing drew you haven't posted in a while. Email on zakdaviesgardenservices@gmail.com
Hi Zak I’m trying to adapt as best as I can through this whole COVID-19 situation. As I’m unable to go to the gym and we have moved into a smaller place it’s been more difficult to workout, but I’m hoping to post more content soon. Thanks for checking for me bro! Much respect 👊🏾
Great video! You did a great job of illustrating proper form doing a variety of exercises with the hammer bar. I love the hammer bar because I have an injured tendon in my left hand and the neutral grip allows me to workout with a lot less pain. Unfortunately, there's only a handful of video's on the different hammer bar workouts so it thrilled me to see yours. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Thank you much! :D
Chris Wolfe thank you so much bro! Much appreciated! I’m glad you have been able to utilise these workouts to accommodate your injury and still smash your goals! 👊🏾👍🏾
You still doing ok drew?
Danny Boy hey bro. I’ve been taking a bit of an extended hiatus while I keep an eye on this situation with the coronavirus. As you can imagine I have to be so careful about where I go and what I do as I’m in the most vulnerable category. I’m hoping the number of cases come down so I can get back to doing the things I love. Thanks for checking on me bro. Much appreciated 👊🏾
@@drewflex7136 No worries man. I'm sure I'm not the only one that was worried you've not posted anything for 5 months pal. Stay safe.
How are u doing brother Drew?
@@ASIF_M1934 10 months on and no response with Facebook, twitter and Instagram accounts all gone, I'm hoping he still alright but if not then my thoughts go to his family.
Drew brother, u OK?
