Mike 1000% accurate on the Hammer Strength
70% of machines at my gym are HS. None of them are useful unless you learn how to "hack" them and use them, probably not as intended, but still. Wonky as shit. The lat pulldown and the incline are practical jokes.
Its good that he actually point it out. Not many people actually notice the biomechanic side
I actually feel this specific version of hammer incline than anything else. It also depends with your individual biomechanics
He’s speaking facts on hammer strength machines
Best channel I have ever came across, I watch all of your videos, keep up the good work man
Mike makes these videos
1. Because he loves us
2. Because he's genuinely disgusted with us all 😂
When those two forces combine, it makes for one of the best training channels available on the internet. Your automatically cool if Mike is on your team.
💯💯🎯🎯🤦🏾🤦🏾🤣🤣
Facts!!! 😂😂
Been watching a this channel for around 18 months.. very novice (and still novice) lifting knowledge. My physique has changed drastically and I’ve gained a little over 40 pounds. Listen to this stuff. It fkn works
Sounds like you might be overdoing the calories, 40lbs is a lot of weight to put on naturally in that timeframe
Sorry to be the one to tell you but I get the feeling that’s caused more so by a calorie surplus
If you know anything about exercise physiology, you know you're watching the wrong guy. Your progress is probably more likely due to hard work, caloric surplus, and novice gains. Good luck though bro, you're killing it!
@@kw1213 well a number of factors play a part. I achieved this from 3,000 calories a day. Big part was quitting smoking and skipping meals. But still can’t go understated that moving well really makes a difference
@@justinobrien1097 thank you for the encouragement ! I can agree to disagree on watching the wrong guy in terms of building muscle. Definitely wasn’t attempting to make it seem like the gains have been solely due to his videos but I’d also be lying if I said this stuff didn’t help a whole lot. Many ways to bake a cake my brother. Thanks again!
I appreciate it ! Looking forward to using your advice today keep dropping these gems Sir
Brilliant information as always thanks Mike 💪🏼👍🏻👍🏻
Lets go! Best way to start off the week!!!
Commercial gyms offer same equipment. We have few choices.
When he pointed out his training video was playing the background the movement he was demonstrating again 😂😂 funniest thing I’ve ever seen
Haha yeah
Ever?
You should get out more.
Ive been waiting for video on this
Excellent!!
Thanks as always! Would you show everything on Life Fitness machines too? Since they are everywhere.
Thanks coach
My coach uses spacers for the Incline Presses, could be Fat Grips in there, rubber block, whatever we can find kinda thing. But it helps with that immediately needing to press and be locked in as you sit. Kuba has a machine that has a drop bar so the set up has the weight already about halfway up. Super nice for exactly this kind of issue for the Hammer Strength incline
best bb intro haha
Ordering a hoody tonite🔥
Hit chest already today. Now I get to learn how to do it a little better
awsome was just wondeing about this same thing !!!!!i keep learning from you ty for your vids
To Hammer Strength credit they do make a good machine flat bench
First, you have completely changed the way I do chest and at 46 I finally have some chest development. But I think you missed the inward squeezing that hammer strength offers vs a barbell especially when you talked about the motion extending straight out. The machine has a limited range of motion as the handles collide. Your point of just using the hammer strength incline is still well taken. It has its place.
that's why he said you're better off with dumbbells
I never could get the activation and tension I wanted on this machine. I believe something in biomechanics isn’t right for this machine, everybody loves it, I prefer it much slower on lighter weight to at least get something beneficial from this machine.
Pulling an adjustable bench under a smith machine is a better option.
Have that machine at my primary gym. Its really awkward to use. I like the life fitness one better with the double stacks but its still awkward. Nothing beats a press where you can push forward while sitting upright and changing angles.
100% the pin loaded LF incline is so much better
Would a vertical press machine be good for upper chest?
I hate that press and their shoulder press too! Horrible ergonomics with wrong angles. They're great for blowing out your shoulders though!
The hammer strength pulls the pecs to create a boxed pec look...imo. hammer strength had some of the best machines....i haven't used the new stuff my commercial gym....is commercial
What's the playlist? 🔥🎧
@5:14 - I love machines that make the weight heavier via using leverage. Less plates to load and unload. But the Machine Makers know that most gym guys love to have a shit tonne of weight on their machines, so they built them the opposite way 😅😅
Thank you. If you’re a thicc boy, that angle of the hammer press is so hard to press heavy without shoulder pain.
quick question: what does Mike mean by driving out of lat and elbow when pressing? How’s the lat involved in this movement?
Next time you set up for a press think about pulling your scapula back and down and you will automatically be flexing your lats and that's always the best and safest way to press through chest.
He overcomplicated things on purpose to make himself sound smarter. Depress your scapula (squeeze shoulder blades together) and drive with your lats.
I totally hate the hammer strength chest press machines. The reason wtf do they all start so bottomed out? Great way to mess your shoulders up if you have long arms.
Hoist is one company that has a foot pedal to start out on the top of the lift.
Just did chest. Used same hammer strength machine
Nice
Al Sharpton was notified
I do the load at the top before starting the hammer strength press naturally, never thought about it being a decision using the machine. Honestly it is just doing what feels right
Hammer Strength is massively over rated, very few of their pieces are engineered well.
5:17 🤣
I just don't understand why the handles are shaped that way, maybe someone can enlighten me because it has never felt comfortable to me.
I hate that machine mike, i can never stimulate chest all front delts
Me as well. Sets my front delts on fire. Going back to free weights.
Mike , love all of your videos , great training tips . I use them all of the time . May I ask why you wasted 12 good mins of our lives showing that shit machine ? Thanks for passing along all of this knowledge . Stay well .
That hammer strength press is proof you can polish a turd😂
Hammer strength too smol.
First of all, it’s not about heavy and raw, as back in the day, they didn’t have the nice equipment you see today in most gyms. Second, if your goals are to lift heavy and complete 2-3 reps, then that is powerlifting and strength training, not lifting to have a great physique. Wanna be big guy checklist: arm sleeve tat ✔️ long beard ✔️ black tight clothes ✔️ a gut larger than their chest ✔️ no abs or definition ✔️ vaping in parking lot for pre workout ✔️. What a physique….lmao.
First
Is this the fool who got all butt hurt by the scales and measuring tape
That style of machine is absolutely trash.....i use it unilaterally as a finishing movement...hammer strength was better aligned to the pec n armpit without that hitch...
😂😂😂😂”Don’t Do This” “Stop doin this” super trendy. Wycked Shirt Stop doing Stupid
"Full range of tension" 😅 gtfo
He's a lil too talkative and over the top. Charles Glass a much better choice to follow.
Whole lot of talking
Skip the video that something I would do it
short cut channel? half the work? Good god 129K gen z' subs. There is no such thing as short cuts in training. Half the work you are getting half as big. Who TF would listen to this guy anyway? Hes not even big. Guess he took too many short cuts.
