Third tip: when trying a new ROM, LOWER the weight so you don't bugger your shoulder till your body adapts and you learn to control the movement correctly...
@@RyanHumistonaccording to the video you worked out for years without getting results. I mean I know it’s not true and you are writing a poor script for a short, but that is what you said. Your content and memes are so good you don’t need shitty scripts. You are so the man.
Top tip: Flare your elbows out nice and wide so you're using mostly your delts and you can feel a sharp pain in your rotator cuff as they slowly shear away from the bone.
@@mannymm7887 it is, the only difference is ppl not targeting properly. if ur shoulders go forward while tucking you either put urself at a wrong height on the machine or point of the bar to touch, have no contraction of the serratus n lats or drove the chest down. it aint rocket science, even if it feels like that being on the bar. there are movements to be inherently more dangerous for certain areas, that is e.g. flaring. even if it will make some feel the chest better, is it a harder contraction? no its just shoulders as well making it feel harder
Most important tip not listed is taking a shit ton of gear. Also don't flare your elbows, it's not worth ruining your tendons/labrum/rotator cuff for a slightly better stretch that most likely won't even make a difference. Most important part of building muscle is consistency and you can't make progress if you're not working out because of injuries.
Exactly, I was able to get away with it for about 10 years but eventually that one faithful day came and I wind up tweaking my shoulder and now 15 years later I am still dealing with chronic shoulder pain and can’t bench anything over 185 without discomfort.
Simply hold the weight lower over your gut. And not over your shoulders. Flaring your elbows is so incredibly dumb!!!. I stopped watching this guy after i stopped laughing at his jokes There are far better and more intelligent people to listen to. Mike @ RP is one of the best
pfftt. i do all chest presses with elbow flare out. Sometimes even guillotine. Never had any injury, 20++ years training natty. Train those weak point instead of aaalwaaays avoiding them.
Man, exactly I was looking for. I get more strength when I tuck my elbows, but I get a better stretch when I flare them. Couldn’t figure out what would be better for my goals this video help me out a lot.
Luckily, my chest grows like b day baloons. I stopped doing bench press and stick with pectoral squeeze machine and cables squeezing slowly and using moderate weight 60lb or less despite I can squeeze 110 max. Also sitting press machine since it puts less pressure on my f up ligaments. Dont wanna f up my shoulders anymore as I used to because off stated reasons. Thanks for sharing your absolute crucial knowledge.
i think flaring ur elbows is a bad idea bc you’re asking for a rotator cuff injury to happen. you can still achieve a deep stretch with your elbows tucked in.
vert true but you forgot to mention the further back you go the risk of hurting yourself increases because you have too start off by pressing all the weight in front of you
It always hurts the shoulder, no matter fucking what elbows in elbows out. It’s gonna hurt if you’ve been lifting long enough so you just fucking deal with it flare that elbow out and flex that chest that shit works.
I like to compromise between them (feels better on my shoulders). Incline, little lighter, elbows flared for the deep stretch. Flat, little heavier, elbows tucked with controlled descent.
Flaring my elbows out has always given me a great stretch as well, issue is, it takes a huge toll on my shoulders. Is there any workaround to that you might be familiar with?
It doesn’t matter about elbow position. As a matter of fact; the elbow position helps your rotator cuff. So if you put too much stress on your shoulders by flaring out too much to can do what this guy has done which is INJURY. If you want to avoid injury PUSH with what’s confortable with your physical limitations. As long as you prgressive overload; EAT, dDRIMK WATER and sleep you’re good
lol I look like chicken pecking away when I do my Flyes, bc I’m always pushing my chin forward at the bottom of the stretch…finally seeing some results in my chest once I started focusing on the stretch.
Having you elbows flared out is actually bad for your shoulders, even on a machine. if you want to keep working out your chest when you get older, keep the elbows in. ;)
Ryan's looking like one of those old timey circus strongmen.
Look at alex leonidas
He's got the generic "bald guy, beard, big nose" cookie-cutter look. There are literally millions of them out there

Probably smells like one too. ;)

Spot on. Going to make a separate short exactly about this.
@@RyanHumiston you have tips how to lift bigger beers?..lol j/k great vids
Amazing tip 👌
Great advice. Goes for any movement, honestly.

It all depends on each person. Some people can flare out while others can’t. It’s not universal for every single person.
Lower the weight ...on a machine flared elbows with good pace can help build UPPER CHEST

You're a solid A+.
Yep he's pushing it too far
I didn't know Kratos has a UA-cam channel
Same fucking thought, lol
Trying this immediately, it's makes perfect sense. another tip i wish i knew 20 years ago.
You don’t have to flare your elbows out if it hurts your shoulders. Everyone’s bio mechanics are different.
Heard my whole life flaring elbows on bench movements puts your shoulder in a compromised position and makes you way more likely to get injured
It does for me. Be careful if you try this.

Flaring your elbows is a double edged sword my friends
True. Dips or seated dip machine should stretch without as much joint risk as benching, for some.
Exactly, I was able to get away with it for about 10 years but eventually that one faithful day came and I wind up tweaking my shoulder and now 15 years later I am still dealing with chronic shoulder pain and can’t bench anything over 185 without discomfort.
That's why Flys are a thing. You can do whatever is most comfortable and always get peak contractions.
Simply hold the weight lower over your gut. And not over your shoulders. Flaring your elbows is so incredibly dumb!!!.

@RavishingSailor preach bro. Daily rotator cuff stretches and mobility routines for me
You don't want to retract your scapula if you're after chest hypertrophy
This is so true. When I started feeling the deep stretch, my results definitely went way up This is solid advice.
Yes flairing out also puts your rotator cuff in a very vulnerable position
Don't put heavy weight drop set work really good
Really good advice Ryan
work with weight within ur comfort zone bud
pfftt. i do all chest presses with elbow flare out. Sometimes even guillotine. Never had any injury, 20++ years training natty. Train those weak point instead of aaalwaaays avoiding them.
@@bisaular5333good for you. Doesn’t work for most tho. Elbows flared and guillotine are recipe for disaster.
Missed opportunity to say “they’re no Ds, but …. DeeeeEEEEES NUTZ”
The elbow flare helped A LOT on chest machines. Was tucking too much
Man, exactly I was looking for. I get more strength when I tuck my elbows, but I get a better stretch when I flare them. Couldn’t figure out what would be better for my goals this video help me out a lot.

Lay on your back, hold 2 heavy dumbells together on chest, push upwards then back down, repeat for x amount of reps. Easy chesticles from jujimufu
Great tips pushing the chest forward really works
Man, your head keeps evolving. Like a Pokemon.

In the early 2000s we were all told Guillotine form would mess up our shoulders. I'm glad the info coming out now is much better
mans been going hard on the DHT deriatives.
vert true but you forgot to mention the further back you go the risk of hurting yourself increases because you have too start off by pressing all the weight in front of you
A real good tip! Thanks!
Great tip. I had the same issue til I made the same switch. It works.
Btw, you look good with or without hair bro, no home just gains 💪
I think I speak for most men. I'll take a solid c man chest over a moob chest anyday. Great advice as always

Im sure you must do a lot of and be consistent with rear delt work to be able to safely flare out those elbows for benching for a big chest.
Jeff Nippard science right there💪🏻
What a humbl man there definitely Es
And another great tip is using that specific machine. We just got those at my gym
That first tip makes a huge difference
gotta go chicken wing to get that chicken breast
Lets Go!!!
740!!!
Finally someone's talks about the stapulo.
content is amazing, that first cue alone i was able to feel much more activation in my right pec (which i’ve always had a problem with)
I needed this today
Solid C! 🤣🤣🤣
I luv this guy!
Great advice I wish I'd paid attention to sooner too 👍
Adding immediately to my routine
Solid c baby 😂😂😂
Then you realize that that stupid amount of unnecessary stretch is just causing fatigue as the pecs barely benefit from stretch mediated hypertrophy
Me bloody right elbow hurts during every chest workout the last 10 years
I love decline bench. Especially since I have a shoulder replacement
My shoulder will not let me get any kind of weight with my elbows flareed, can only do good weight with the elbows tucked in
These hit the outer middle fibers of the pec. They get plenty of action
What about Ronnie and Cutler doing partial reps ?
Man that machine looks like it would feel amazing for chest
Wait... I thought flaring your elbows was exactly what you need to avoid if you want to avoid shoulder pain. Am I wrong?
Holy cow!! Game changing!!! 💯🤘🤘🤘
Fully grown thumb with the solid form tips.
The sarcasm brings me back everytime...😂💪🏻😎
better stretch on the way down feels good man
He is a great guy
Will flaring the elbow out not cause or aggravate a shoulder injury?
Can’t flare my elbows out because of shoulder pain any other tips
I usually squeeze with my elbows as I push out
That is great advice. I totally agree 💪
Those machines looks fire
Thanks for the advice!

Didn't understand the first step could u please elaborate it
Pull your shoulders blade back and that is it.
@johaan203 thanks bro
You can also use TRT therapy
Good tips thx
This is facts 💯
Having you elbows flared out is actually bad for your shoulders, even on a machine. if you want to keep working out your chest when you get older, keep the elbows in. ;)
Review shake straps please from Mark Bell
Solid C's, Brian.
Thanks 😊
Only reason why I don't do it like that is because of my shoulders. I have bad shoulders smh. So I have to tuck my arms in a little bit.
Any concerns in flaring issues and shoulder damage? Or is that not too much to worry about?
Good advice...
Looks more like an alien every time I come across newer videos , a hench alien
I’m glad he said chest
You have a great and funny channel Ryan🤣💪 Keep up the great job👍
WTF... Not one person is going with a D's Nutz joke. What has this place become.
You laced it tho 😅
and more importantly, eat in a caloric surplus
No, do not retract your scaps, just depress your shoulders.
Do Stem sells work? I don't see your hair.
My god I just love your face, anyways thx for the workout tips, I do see improvements on my bodyyyy💪🏼😁
I'll take a solid C
Giggity
so elbows up on negatives?
I'm good, busy with work.
Always got good game and funny asf
A solid C cup 😂😂😂 Bruh you hilarious
I can't do that though I get the clicking elbow f****** annoying
So big i cant even lay flat on my surfboard! But my arms need help
What happened with the hair stem cells ?
I have this exact machine in my gym and use it the same way
Pulling elbows in recruits the triceps too much. Good call.
why do i never see these on chest day
Yeahman Onit 👍🏽🙏🏽💪🏽
How do I grow hair
You're fuggin' awesome, Ryan. Much thanks.
Not wrong at all. I started slaring elbows up for chest and it made me feel like a newb again
My goal is to have a bigger chest than my ex. She's an A cup btw so we winning so far! 🤩
