Very interesting channel! So it's accurate to say that any movement that biases the mid pecs will also work very well the lower pecs and any movement that biases the lower pecs will also work really well the mid pecs? So, in general, the only head that we should think to isolate is the upper one?
Amazing Ben! Im a lil bit confused on the effect of narrow vs Wide arm path, Joe bennet says narrow path aligns more with upper pec even in flat press and wide aligns with sternal and costal Contrary to yours
@@The_Modern_Meatheadjust implemented your explanation on my today’s chest workout. Got a great pump and activation! Looking forward to test and target another muscle groups. Your videos are such a masterpiece, man! Thank you once again!
Assuming you already include an horizontal press, an incline press and a chest fly into your routine, do you think a vertical press is needed in order to hit the shoulders directly?
Studies show hypertrophy occurs from the stretch position not the shortening - contraction, therefore the squeeze and crossover is not relevant for growth..?
My understanding is the “studies” show that there is more hypertrophy from the lengthened range of motion compared to short, but that doesn’t mean there is only hypertrophy from the former and not the latter. This does raise the question though whether flyes are really necessary.
Am i wrong in saying arms wider on the incline is a change of taught, i believe i seen you promote a more narrow grip even for incline due to leverage im not sure haha
Great content, a bit hard to follow, underrated channel, but i would love if you could link the details you're talking about more to the final practical use case, i personaly find myself spacing out even though i need to know the mechanics, i cant follow them for too long if I dont have a usecase in mind. For example, like "the incline bench press sucks because x, and thats because if you look at the anatomy ... Blah blah" Sorry for the criticism, i do intend to devour all of your content now :d
Agreeing there. I’d say the opposite to what he says here. Flyes for the stretch, legnthed part. As Jeff Nippard only does legnthed partials on dumbbell flyes because no resistance when contracted at top.. Benefit ofcourse withe cables /pecdeck when u get resistance from sides too, not only down. So cables give better resistance at end of movement than dumbbel, press or fly. Although the press around is more targeted for the end, contracted, shortened part.
Thank you for taking my advice on making long form content bro. No offense,but you gotta make the thumbnail more attractive.Your content's already top notch,you just gotta get your thumbnail game right.I hope you success chief.
@@The_Modern_Meathead Thanks! This is the first time I've seen you, and I generally move on when a creator doesn't mention their credentials upfront because YT is filled with uneducated "influencers". However, despite your poor production values (please work on that), you have a "Master Class" presentation style. Excellent information! 👍👍
hey, i think u could get more views if ur vids were shorter, like rn i clicked on ur video and then went back bcz i was overwhelmed of the video length. im not saying get rid of any information but try to fit it in a shorter video
more of these Ben, your doing an amazing job. Just some constructive criticisms for you to consider: Maybe dumb the language down just a bit so more casual people can understand. I'm just starting to get my head around this whole biomechanics and anatomy thing and sometimes I with you would speak in a little bit more of a beginner friendly way. Just something for you to consider. If you change absolutely nothing about these videos they'll still be tremendously valuable tho!
We want ultimate training guide for every part of body ..
Love this series ❤️
glad to hear :) eventually for sure.
I second the request!
....and considering the majority are silent, there's thousands upon thousand who support this request but may be shy to say. : )
the ultimate training guide is gooooood
Appreciate ya!!!
Most underrated lifting channel
Can't thank you enough Ben ! My knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics have greatly improve those lasts months thanks to your content. Cheers !
thanks for the kind words - im very lucky to be able to help!
Ben is the goat of content 😮💨
apprecaite you jesse :)
Huge faaan , i love the content, appreciate the work
Please continue the serie
will do! thank you!
Absolutely fantastic explanation!
May god bless people like ben yanes who show their knowledge to the world , all his videos are helpful 🥰
This was really well explained and simplified, you are doing a great job at educating Ben 👏

Ben I just want to say thank you again! 👑
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !! That was very clear. Thank you ! 🙏
Great vid! You need more recognition.
This explanation is music for my ears 💯, brilliant
Please do the rest of the body, your videos are top tier, I haven't been this excited since I started lifting.
loved that explanation bro
Big fan of these ultimate training guides
Great stuff.
This is amazing please make this for more muscle groups
Hello from Brazil! Great video, loved it
hello! thanks for the kind words! appreciate you.
Ben thanks for very informative video.
What do you think about resistance band instead cable machine because i don't have that equipment.
Thanks
Incredible! What a rich video ! Thanks for making it a free content what a good man ❤️ Make one about the Back anatomy please
thank you! appreciate your support! just made one on the lats this week so check that out. will make an upper back one soon.
Adding to the list of favorites on chest training!
much appreciated :)
Whats about the Pullover motion?
Amazing Ben! Im a lil bit confused on the effect of narrow vs Wide arm path, Joe bennet says narrow path aligns more with upper pec even in flat press and wide aligns with sternal and costal
Contrary to yours
Love this!
which part of pecs will mostly work in iron cross and bulgarian dips on rings?
Amazing! Thanks man!
happy to help. thanks for the kind words!

🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Amazing👏🏽
thanks friend!
Hi Ben❤
Studies show hypertrophy occurs from the stretch position not the shortening - contraction, therefore the squeeze and crossover is not relevant for growth..?
this is a gross extrapolation/oversimplification of the research and is not an accurate conclusion
My understanding is the “studies”
show that there is more hypertrophy from the lengthened range of motion compared to short, but that doesn’t mean there is only hypertrophy from the former and not the latter. This does raise the question though whether flyes are really necessary.
Is this material legal to be free?
Thank you! I learned so much!❤
hah! thank you! appreciate your support :)
Am i wrong in saying arms wider on the incline is a change of taught, i believe i seen you promote a more narrow grip even for incline due to leverage im not sure haha
these are my most updated perspectives
Do I need touch the dumbbells to my chest during any dumbbell work if I want to focus on lengthening my pecs
yes
no, each person will vary in their individual pec ROM.
Great content, a bit hard to follow, underrated channel, but i would love if you could link the details you're talking about more to the final practical use case, i personaly find myself spacing out even though i need to know the mechanics, i cant follow them for too long if I dont have a usecase in mind.

Sorry for the criticism, i do intend to devour all of your content now :d
Are flyes effective at all if they are mostly working in the shortened range of motion? Seems like the “lengthened partial” guys would say no.
Agreeing there. I’d say the opposite to what he says here. Flyes for the stretch, legnthed part. As Jeff Nippard only does legnthed partials on dumbbell flyes because no resistance when contracted at top.. Benefit ofcourse withe cables /pecdeck when u get resistance from sides too, not only down.
So cables give better resistance at end of movement than dumbbel, press or fly. Although the press around is more targeted for the end, contracted, shortened part.
Too good

Or if you have a converging press from prime, then you will be the ultimate gigachad big brain
correct
more of these Ben, your doing an amazing job.

i think he balances it with the pictures.
appreciate your feedback a lot, and thanks for taking the time to be thoughtful. will definitely keep this in mind moving forward.
Just achieve 315 bench and your chest will blow up
