Derek, I'm so stoked on this channel man!!! You have got to be one of the fastest growing YT's right now, and for good reason. I have told countless friends back home in Canada about you and they keep writing me saying "man I've been binge watching this dude" One gal from Sasky just went vegan because of you. My next challenge is to get my old man hooked. You know how parents are "I've been eating meat for 50 years and I'm fine!" Btw Tim the Cat hahaha great cover up :)
It's very clear that what you have been doing is getting you results. With the DB row when you go heavy and let your shoulder drag down your getting a bigger overload and also a nice stretch in you rear felt and mid back. Doing them "strict" you're gonna "feel the burn" and also build a lot of strength/stability for those levers. I would say (and I do myself) use both. A last little tidbit a mentor of mine used to say "the best exercise to achieve results is the one you haven't been doing". Take care brother and keep posting!
oh man, i just realized you're the guy taking up the squat rack to do pull ups... for the bent over 1-arm row, put your knee and hand of the inactive side down on a bench, and your other foot out to the side. keep your back straight and really focus on "pulling your elbow to the ceiling" search "one arm dumbbell row" on youtube, there are a ton of vids great video bud!
Simnett Nutrition haha alright. A sit down with a cup of tea would also be fine. I just started trailrunning or running and even though there a hundreds of videos about it, they all say different things. So i thought i would ask my trustworthy nutristionist :) i found a really cool trail halfmarathon in scotland which i really wanna run, but that's already in 12 weeks. No idea if i am able to do that. Also that's a really cool workout video, but i'm still too weak to even do normal push-ups. I hope i will get there eventually
Your dumbbell rows seems pretty decent. Just remember that the function of your lats is to bring your elbow backwards (in multiple directions, so this can be a downwards movement during a pullup or a pulldown, or a backwards movement during a row). As long as you utilize your lats for this purpose, whilst focusing on stimulating the lat to work during this particular movement, you're good. Also remember that the lats are best activated when the back is slightly arched (emphasize slightly). If not arched slightly, you will use more trapezius and rhomboideus muscles.
Hey brother I'm finishing my athletic therapist degree here in Montreal Canada! For your one arm rows! You can either work on more on scapular retraction and let the bother rotate a bit to allow the last to get a little more of a stretch on the eccentric phase! But you may and I've been doing this it's more sport specific for my sport but a great way to hit the lats! You would stand with your right leg in front in a lunge position in front of a cable machine or elastic for a more calesthetic version with your left arm grabbing the pully! From your perform a little forward flexion, then allow the arm to pull a little forward where you feel a stretch then you can start to perform the modified version of 1 arm row! Give it a goo if it helps I can perform a video to make it easier and post it on my channel! Keep it up boss vegan power 👊🏼💪🏼🍆🍉🍑🍌🥝🥑🍍
One thing to remember Derek, always prioritize form over weight. With your deadlifts keep your head and neck in line with your spine. I noticed you keep your head up and look in to the mirror but you should be keeping your head in line with your spine throughout the whole movement
Awsome video as always :) Just a little tip : on the deadlifts dont pick up your head and look forward, but try too keep neutral head position. I know, you want to check your form in the mirror, but is not good for your neck and back, especially when weights get heavier.
Great insight to how you train mixing callisthenics and weights! Your videos are excellent and inspiring me to get out and workout both in the gym and the outdoors! Even in rainy Northern Ireland!
When you deadlift keep your chest up and butt out. You might need to work your hip and hamstring flexibility so you can get in deeper before you start to pull. Good job.
If you are looking at building some nice thick lats, I would highly suggest Lat Pull-ins, in accordance to Bio-mechanics and the way the fibers align with the body a really amazing movement that not many are aware of.
since you feel like you are squatting the weight up on the deadlifts, focus on where you are looking. when you face the mirror, you tend to want to look at yourself. Doing this extends your neck too much and that causes your torso to follow the neck upwards in more of a squat pattern. instead of looking at yourself in the mirror, face the opposite way, look at the ground in front of you in the bottom position, and then let your head go up naturally with your back during the lift. I used to do the same thing when I deadlifted, so now I never face the mirror and think of tucking in my chin to keep my cervical spine neutral. hope this make sense!
Happy b-day Crystal! They say we should not keep nor drink water from plastic bottles, has something to do with plastic particles being released into water slowly and they mimic estrogen. Not sure if that's correct, but that's what they say.
with the one arm row with the dumbells, go to a bench, left knee and left fist on the bench while bent down, right arm holding the weight with right leg bent slightly to balance yourself. move the tricep part of your arm parallel to the ground and no further. you were pretty much just doing a bicep workout when you should be isolating your back and lats as much as possible. not saying you didnt try but that's what ended up happening. also detrimental to your spine if you try those heavy weights without balancing yourself and isolating your muscles with the bench to lean on
I think for the rows it depends what you're trying to work. Thoracic flexion under load is almost always contraindicated, but to get full range of motion for your shoulder retractors you kind of have to. That being said, I think for one arm Dumbbell rows, keeping your shoulders packed is good because it isometrically trains your shoulders to remain in proper position while doing dynamic pull movements. This is probably more important than getting slightly more ROM for for your retractors. Ie. Like the core, in my opinion isometric resistance for shoulder stability beats out getting slightly more ROM during a movement. Now on the other hand, in regards to hypertrophy, targeting your retractors like the rhomboids, mid traps, etc, I think seated rows or facepulls/other cable variations are probably the way to go. A little bit of thoracic flexion is probably okay in these movements because there's less of a shearing force on the spine from the load/gravity. Source: Am a Kinesiology major.
Your deadlifts look pretty good form wise, sometimes if you're not feeling it but your form looks right, it kind of becomes a mental thing, something that helps me is instead of focusing on the form of my upper body I put almost all of my focus on pushing the earth away with my feet as hard as I can and powering through my heels and outside of my feet. I'm not sure what shoes you have on but you could give it a shot in just your socks, it sounds weird but maybe you might need a flatter shoe for stabilization and trying it out in your socks for one set might help you figure that out. Also try the one arm bent over rows flat on the ground. Like your knees on the ground body in I think it's called "tabletop" position and one hand down for stabilization. Contract your lats (? I think that's the main muscle it targets) to bring up the dumbbell from a flat surface, it prevents you from any swinging or dropping of the shoulder and focuses completely on your lats pulling up the dumbbell to your side. It's all kind of personal preference, some prefer the stretch and the reach towards the ground while doing them and some might prefer not to! Hope that makes sense!
This is so amazing to see! I love seeing your workouts. You should do a what I eat in a day couples edition and/or couples workout. I'd love to see more of Crystal. Y'all make a beautiful couple. Sending good vibes from Texas
I know u dont, but if u all ask me, the exercise with the dumbell should be better if you just keep ur back rigth as table (like in 4 points position) and the dumbell need to do a diagonal from the height of your head to ir ribs. Many greetings and congratulations again, I will try to follow your example and I will make videos in my country to help stop eating animals and have really gains! The Best of luck in everything
the row was good the first time. U should move the shoulder down and stretch the dorsal muscle. You will not get injured, it's a normal movement for the shoulder.
holy shit, you look HUGE with a pump! Congratulations, bro! Also, i loved your routine. Do you think one can change the muscle up for dips or front levers? I can't do a muscle up yet. One more thing, wouldn't be better if you did the deadlift after the pull-ups? Plz, bring more videos like this coming! I'd love to see what are your push and legs routine!
Hey Derek awesome video. Love these ones. With the bent over row, I do then standing in a lunge position versus holding something. It’s always helped me maintain proper form. Worked for me, try it out.
Honestly the form on your first attempt at DB rows were better, key to this exercise is to get a massive stretch and then contraction at the top. Just start a bit lighter to really get the feel for the movement. Cheers yours vids are awesome!
Hey man, regarding your bent over row, u should retract your scapula before your biceps take part on the movement. So u tryna drive your elbows til they pass your back, so u can squeeze your back as tight as possible. Always think about your elbows and u should be fine. The second movement is good, though I think u should drop the weight a lil be more than u can get fROM, massive hug
I'd love to see a full week of your workouts. Right now I do a 4 day split. All weights, no calisthenics. I'm about to start my workout today, and I think I'm going to follow this as best I can. I'm hoping to get one muscle up. Haha
Bodyworks looks like a rad gym! I'm usually only ever in Parksville for windsurfing in the winter, but if I've I'm there for something else I'll definitely drop in there! Have you met many other vegan athletes on the island? I train in North Van and haven't met a single one, yet..
When you do back movements, think like your superman ripping his shirt off and pushing out chest...just what I was this told, and helped me...💪 keep it up
Hey, check out Athlean-X. The video is called "Stop doing dumbbell rows like this!". Jeff is an awesome resource for you. Just a tip. Ty for videos, I enjoy them. Peace.
Your knees shouldn't be locked but shouldn't be bent either when going to grab the bar for the deadlift. In order to critique it more we'd have to see your feet placement, etc which I can't here. As far as not being set up for it and being better for Sumos, I don't see that myself. If you want a good quick reference for a really good deadlift check out Alan Thrall's 5 Step Deadlift video. It's the best I've seen on the subject and based on Starting Strength, which is a fantastic program (for strength/barbell training).
Your back was straight and shoulders locked in... that's good. There was some dip in your hips on a couple reps, but that's not bad. Overall looked good.
I went there and Scott Herman! I love Jeff Cavalier. He is always on point. Thank you. It's a good tip for anyone who sees this comment! Maybe I should do a video on my influences or who I go to for info.
For the dumbbell rows I would square your stance so that you're not rounding/curving your lower back. I got pain from doing that after a while, not that you need tips... just saying :D
You should keep your back more straight during the row, shoulder movement is fine. Deadlift was honestly fine at first. You seem to do the regular version easily. And you're actually suppose to kinda squat it at the lower portion anyways.
Love this video! I'm wanting to work out alot more but from home. Sadly stuck with s door pull up atm. Going to get s bike. Any leg work outs you like besides squats?
Derek, thanks for the vid. Bi's looked huge. They looked pumped solely after the pullups! How many days a week would you say you work this? Are you able to do a Push Day as well?
Love the videos! Might have missed it but what do you do for a lower body work-out? I've gotten more into pulls up for upper body, but I'm struggling to find a good lower, aside from air squats, lunges, ect.
I hate the way my belly looks when I look at myself when I shave in morning to point I get so Depressed. What exercises can I do for stomach. I have had troble for couble months. Please help. Neil putman from cullman. Albama I love eating raw vegetables broccli baby carrots bell peppers celey am thinking trying tempeh I love hummus.am getting get some from that helps.
I'm watching you do those muscle ups and I'm thinking man that fan is super close too you hahah !!!! If it hits you it'll probably break the fan and not you 😆🏋️♀️
what do you do for your legs? they look so good. i train legs more than any other muscle they have gotten rly rly strong infact the strongest part of my body but they look rly crappy. i always see you doing these calisthenics movements but hardly any legwork how is your routine on legs?
Hey man I started body weight training this year (4 months back). I have seen improvement since I'm very dedicated, but I feel like it's sort of slow in some areas. I'm 20 now and next year maybe I'm going on a cruise liner, hopefully they have equipment and correct nutrition. Any way I can establish personal contact with you?
Who else is a fan girl?🖐🏼
As long as you are!
His beard makes my ovaries itch witch excitement!
Nothing's better than You Tube bromance
Well well there the ALL NATURAL VENUS "FLYTRAP" aha

What really helped me with those bent over dumbbell rows is focusing on pulling with your elbow.
I liked the vid cuz of your honesty. you are not scared to ask for help or let people know that trial and era is the way to learn...
Asking for help from people who have more knowledge and experience is the only way to learn! Thanks Rob
Yay new video just before bedtime. Can you make a Video about your time as a trailrunner? Would be super interesting. Keep up the awesome work!
Oh, I have no footage from back then because I was busy enjoying my life rather than filming it. Haha, just joking. :D
Simnett Nutrition haha alright. A sit down with a cup of tea would also be fine.

Deadlifts are coming along man keep at it! I've been watching SilentMikes channel for Deadlift and squat instructions he really knows his stuff.
I'm doing arms today. And I'm totally going to do those straight bar drop set curls at the end of my workout. Tnx for the inspiration.
for the deadlifts, line the bar in the center of the foot and keep ur shoulders in front of the bar and ur hips up
you are the only channel I have notifications turned on for lol
Great video as always!! Always inspiring.. much love from South Africa 💛
Guy, looking really nice and jacked since adding weights. I NEED your weekly routine. This is great
Thanks man. I am planning to create some routines like this in an ebook! Patience, friend.
nice
Great video ,mate,congrats on surpassing 100k 💪!

Derek, you MUST watch Brian Alruhe's channel to learn how to deadlift. You two are the most optimistic persons I've ever seen.
Great video man. Still workin on the elusive muscle-ups! Thanks Stinnett.
You really go hard on those trainings Derek damn! These are great for inspiration! :D

This was good. I'm learning through your videos.
The strictness of your form on the weighted pull-ups is to be saluted.
Very nice. Hope to see more videos like that
Awesome! Love you
the row was good the first time. U should move the shoulder down and stretch the dorsal muscle. You will not get injured, it's a normal movement for the shoulder.

Can u do like a special progression to basics like pull-ups. If you have any progressions other than negatives or using resistance bands👍🏻💪🏻

Great! Have an awesome workout!
Awesome to see such good content in BC Canada... not a lot up here 🙄
First ! Big green recovery shake cheers. Love ya bro
Awesome. Hope you enjoy!
Man you make your exercises seem so easy!
They are now, but weren't at first!
I probably couldn't even do 5 pull ups >.< I gotta get my sh*t together 😅
Loved the video! Leg day next, in this fashion please.
Bodyworks looks like a rad gym! I'm usually only ever in Parksville for windsurfing in the winter, but if I've I'm there for something else I'll definitely drop in there!
Have you met many other vegan athletes on the island? I train in North Van and haven't met a single one, yet..
Hey, i liked the more detailed voice over. It would be cool to see a push day done in the same style. Keep up the good work.
Okay sweet. I will have to do that soon!
When you do back movements, think like your superman ripping his shirt off and pushing out chest...just what I was this told, and helped me...💪 keep it up
Okay great, thank you. That is to help pack the shoulders, great tip!

Please focus more on food. That is your biggest edge!!!!! Love all of the videos keep it up!!!!
I suggest doing the one Arm rows on a bench
Good idea
i never make it to the end before commenting! DUDE YOU'RE RIPPED!
found a sweet trail system and playground that no one uses in Lighthouse (30 mins for your place). just thought i'd share the wealth.
Great video!
Your back was straight and shoulders locked in... that's good. There was some dip in your hips on a couple reps, but that's not bad. Overall looked good.
Did my first muscle-up (pretty bad form) and chafed my nipple. No pain, no gain amiright.
For your form, I suggest you look at studies (on pubmed).
Great vid, I wanna go hit the gym right now but it's nearly midnight lol 👍🏻💪🏼
Love your singlet!
How often do you have pull day ?
Gonna do that last bicep exercise.
Let me know if you survive!
Awesome bro , wish I could offer some advice. Was wondering about your Ebook need a recipe idea for crockpot meal for my family and I.
Ian Bonham I too am looking for quick meal ideas from Derek for my family.
Hey Derek, for technique in weight exercises I suggest you to go and check the Athlean X channel.
I went there and Scott Herman! I love Jeff Cavalier. He is always on point. Thank you. It's a good tip for anyone who sees this comment! Maybe I should do a video on my influences or who I go to for info.
You ever do some trail running out in BC? I want some footage of some talks if so
Awesome!
Hi Simnett. How many days your train ? Every day ? Or you have days off
For the dumbbell rows I would square your stance so that you're not rounding/curving your lower back. I got pain from doing that after a while, not that you need tips... just saying :D
Okay great. No I asked for tips. Thank you!
Dude you wrecked it!
You should keep your back more straight during the row, shoulder movement is fine.
Deadlift was honestly fine at first. You seem to do the regular version easily. And you're actually suppose to kinda squat it at the lower portion anyways.
Thanks Nuno
Love this video! I'm wanting to work out alot more but from home. Sadly stuck with s door pull up atm. Going to get s bike. Any leg work outs you like besides squats?
I'm concerned about that placement of the violently spinning fan!
Where can I buy your tank 😮???
Derek, thanks for the vid. Bi's looked huge. They looked pumped solely after the pullups! How many days a week would you say you work this? Are you able to do a Push Day as well?
Love the videos! Might have missed it but what do you do for a lower body work-out? I've gotten more into pulls up for upper body, but I'm struggling to find a good lower, aside from air squats, lunges, ect.
Yep, more workout vids ^^
Awesome. Will do.
hey I feel like my wrists/forarms are too week , its getting in my way of getting my first muscle up , can you do a video for forearm strengthening
last time i looked you had 30k subs mate. goodwork
Hehehe thanks for the shout out😘
How long are you in the gym for a typical push/pull day?
Yeah nice video! One question: how long do u rest between ur sets?
Nice shirt 😀👌
I hate the way my belly looks when I look at myself when I shave in morning to point I get so Depressed. What exercises can I do for stomach. I have had troble for couble months. Please help. Neil putman from cullman. Albama I love eating raw vegetables broccli baby carrots bell peppers celey am thinking trying tempeh I love hummus.am getting get some from that helps.
Do you have any veins inside your body during workout?😯😵
I'm watching you do those muscle ups and I'm thinking man that fan is super close too you hahah !!!! If it hits you it'll probably break the fan and not you 😆🏋️♀️
Dammit. I wasn't going to workout today, then I saw this video. Time to get a workout in... Thanks Simnett 😂😂
Happy to inspire! Make sure to rest though. :D
Hi Derek, I wanted to ask what is your opinion on sport watches, i noticed youre not using one.
Sumo deads are the way to go
The mistake you were doing in db bentover rows is that your back was oval...you should maintain an arch and keep your abs tight.
what do you do for your legs? they look so good. i train legs more than any other muscle they have gotten rly rly strong infact the strongest part of my body but they look rly crappy. i always see you doing these calisthenics movements but hardly any legwork how is your routine on legs?
why u change the grip between muscleup and pullup? there is no reason
Hey man I started body weight training this year (4 months back). I have seen improvement since I'm very dedicated, but I feel like it's sort of slow in some areas. I'm 20 now and next year maybe I'm going on a cruise liner, hopefully they have equipment and correct nutrition. Any way I can establish personal contact with you?
keep your head neutral with the deadlifts. Don't look at the mirror look down and keep your spine straight!
Do you rest between the muscle up drop sets or superset? What about the weighted, is the short time in between basically none or like 15 seconds?
What kind of time do you take between the drop set pull ups (between each set that is)?
