Mike deep breathes in before going down with weight...holds his breath..releases pushing out! 💪 a lot of people forget that. It's not just bone density & connective tissue 🤧
I am 51 years old and I have been watching Mike since I was 18. No human being has ever maintained a physique like that for decades. He does not look great for his age, and he is not strong for his age. He just looks great, and he is just strong.
Same here! 185lbs for 8 reps today, all with good form, a 1 second pause and constant tension. Been lifting for 13 years exactly, I am weaker than I was in my 20's, but mucj denser and fuller. Quality over Quantity 💪🏼💪🏼
Still relatively young man. A lot of people are in their prime with weights in their 40's and hit pr's. You can make so many gains man if you hit the weights hard. Good luck, hope you're doing good and having fun since you posted that.
Mike seems to focus on moving weights like he's doing Tuishou. Leverage, reflex, sensitivity, timing, coordination and positioning... like Pushing Hands. Facts!
The amount of knowledge in this video is unbelievable. Mike, Im so grateful for your sharing this and making us better and wiser. Thank you sir, hope to have a chance to meet you one day.
Absolutely! Whenever do you hear bodybuilders or fitness influencers talk about bone density, and tendon strength? I feel like a lot of the young people. Don’t expect to live more than 10 years and Mike is showing us you could have a world-class, physique and world class power for almost indefinitely.
Mike, you inspired me to stick with my goals. My favorite lift is thumbs-length grip inclined-bench pre$$e$. I am 64 yrs young, 5 ft7" , and 175lbs. Currently doing 155lbs x 7 reps. My goal is to get 225 x 5 by July 14, 2024 my birthday 🎂💐
My husband uses a one and done approach. He began training at 14, he is 36 now. When he first began he used multiple sets per exercise and always used good form. Unfortunately, when he was 19 he hurt his lower spine on a leg press machine. A few years later he began to change his technique, focusing more on using full range of motion with a slow and controlled movement. When he would barbell squat, he was just 5'6 and 167 pounds, he would use such strict form athletes and bodybuilders would tell him they rarely see such strict form used. He only would squat 225 for one all out set of 18-20 repetitions and then go to the leg extensions afterward without rest and do 80 pounds for 15 repetitions. Sometimes on the barbell squat he would pause at parallel for 2 solid seconds on every rep he performed. He would get 15 reps when he did this. He said, true strength is your isometric strength combined with a full range of motion using a controlled pace, unless you are a powerlifter or strongman.
There are so many good different ways to train, and pretty much all of them work and have potential to be beneficial. Strict form is almost always good, but it does depend on your specific goals and what muscles you're trying to hit, so in very very rare cases there are exceptions.
"I was stronger than any pro bodybuilder ever" - Mike 0'Hearn What a legend. Love this guy, truly the strongest ever. No one was stronger than him period. He truly is at a level that NO ONE has ever even come close to. It's really an inspiration to me and others to see someone at this level. People like Arnold are NOT who they seem to be. It's all smoke and mirrors. Truly, Mike is the real deal stronger man ever!
I know yoy are trolling and Its pretty funny how mike says things etc. But he is actually insanely strong. 500 pound Incline bench strength with good form in his 50's?while being lean? Its literally insane.
Best thing ive learnt from mike is the behind the head shoulder press. I've struggled for years with a bad shoulder and a tendency to roll it even when it made no sense and I would try my best not to. This fixed the pain, the posture the poor form, everything. I feel strong again where I used to have pain. Thanks mike!
Mike mentioned a man named Bull Stewart. Bull Stewart is a legend in Seattle. His sons Lodrick and Rodrick are two legendary high school basketball players from Rainier Beach high school in Seattle who went on to play at USC and the University of Kansas, respectively. Bull was an absolute Bull of a man, his strength was mythical and his sons, all of them, will go down as some of the most explosive and entertaining athletes the city of Seattle has ever witnessed. I would love to hear more about Mike's time competing against the man known as Bull Stewart.
Yes sir. That's how it's done. Doug Hepburn style training. I've trained like this in my weightroom for years. Slow and steady. Progressive overload on the basics.
My numbers started going way up when I started to train like that. 1-4 heavy reps nice and smooth, no struggle just heavy weights in control. Was able to finally start getting over 225 on the bench without pain.
*I’m a lifelong natural - 25 years in a row lifting… currently have a 585 PR incline bench, and hit 545 for 4. You will not ever see a natural as strong as me in your lifetime.*
Mike has built such a solid foundation that he has not been injured in his 30 yrs of working out........that's freaking more amazing than his lifts love how he preaches longevity so many body builders have died or there joints have fell apart this is not a overnight thing mike's built a super endocrine system when he preaches bone density and connective tissue ..... There's a reason why he's the only one at his age whose remained injury free and still big and healthy as an Ox it truely is amazing
Great point about where you grip the weight.. I think it actually makes a huge difference on focusing the weight. Gripping it too far inward like the guy wearing the hat was would make you focus the weight more on the anterior shoulder rather than the chest.
Mike, really appreciate the comments on longevity and training style; have been learning to adapt from sports training to more of your style and feel much healthier
As an Exercise Physiologist, Mike O' Hearn is 100% correct. He didn't articulate his thoughts with enough physiological support, however, his philosophy is spot on. Perhaps he was keeping his explanations very basic for purposes of this video or the person he was speaking too. Ultimately his approach to training, whether he knows it or not, is supported by the scientific literature in the world of exercise physiology. Great job, Mr. O' Hearn, keep teaching others the correct way!
Video's from Mike and his crew is what I like so much! Giving me the RIGHT amount of energy and inspiration I need rather than those fellas who are screemimg eachother in the face while doing their reps and sets!! But hey, that's just me and each their own! 👍🏻👍🏻
@@MastahMich Bro… programming and nutrition only get you so far. Mike O’hearn has insane genetics. But, to be this big and strong at 50 without destroying your body requires a lot of drugs whether want to believe it or not.
Mike, your wife should be a little less lean for her health. It's too easy for her to be lean. Just my thoughts. You are my new inspiration and your wife and dog are super cute and wonderful people. ❤️
mike is like the terminator, mike and his team give me the fuel i need to stay on form and run the day, as oppose to the day running me, 'heave-ho' that just made me laugh so hard :)))
Awesome. O'Hearn is getting stronger. love it. As a body builder I couldn't agree more with his knowledge. I tried for years doing "good form" and reps 8-12 till failure. Did very little. Now I mix it up and always go heavy 3 reps to max with a spotter and muscle mass and strength went up. Must of us will not grow with lighter weights and high reps like Heath, Flex, Dillet. Must of us need to kill it like Branch, Walker, Yates, and of course O'Hearn.
@@marksmith9175 Branch also lifts the heaviest weight he can with high intensity and very poor form. Branch in getting volume load from the reps with a heavy weight to stimulate the mass and hardness he had. Branch also had multiple injuries. Better Branch trained like O'Hearn and grow and get strong with less wear and tear on the tendons from all the high reps.
@@jkane334 Jay was and is a pussy. He was a ton of insulin, growth and test derivatives. Look at the size of Jays waist and gut!!!! AGAIN... for most up us, mix it up but overall better to warm-up and kill it with heavy weights, lower volume and get in and out and spar the joints Like Mike O'Hearn.
Mike is so very impressive, and is always pushing his limits which one of the reasons I love watching him. I hold myself to a higher standard than most people, and set very very high goals, and Mike obviously does too. Doing what he's doing at his age in terms of muscle, strength, and just overall intelligence and ability is incredible. More impressive that Larry Wheels to me for sure. He's far older than Larry, and Larry is barely lifting more than Mike. Mike may be stronger on Incline now than Larry is. I hate to compare guys like that, but it's a testament to how impressive Mike is. Appreciate your videos Mike. I'm working very hard too, and i'm coming for you lol. That's another thing I learned from Mike was to stop overtraining and pushing my body so very hard every workout, and that's because I have high goals, but it's not beneficial in the long run.
@@molasorrosalom4846 Yeah, Larry has done a lot of damage to his body already. He definitely pushes too hard in my opinion. That's another thing that's great with Mike is his longevity, and how he explains it, because longevity is very important to me, I want to be able to do this forever. Larry gets injured all the time, Mike has never really been injured in all these years. Larry will never be able to lift like this for years on end if he even makes it that long at all.
If you look close, the entire gym uses ivanko barbell company weights while this incline bench rack uses american barbell company weights. Even if this is half the weight of what it actually is, a 275 incline bench in your 50’s is a great lift.
I love the way the camera gets real close, so that you can never see two people talking to each other. Instead, each person speaks into a void. Really good camera work--get in close!
Mike O Hearn bodybuilding philosophy is the best i ever heard. Its all about the long-term consistency, perfect slow heavy reps and giving the body the time and food for recovery.
It is so helpful to hear Mike's advice about full range of motion. I don't do heavy weights as I don't want to get really big, but the advice is still great advice for me. I've also started thinking more about longevity and long-term planning thanks to this video.

It is so helpful to hear Mike's advice about full range of motion. I don't do heavy weights as I don't want to get really big, but the advice is still great advice for me. I've also started thinking more about longevity and long-term planning thanks to this video.

Yeh it takes more than lifting to get really big, I wouldn’t worry about it
This guy's 53 years old! Let that sink in
