1. SQUAT , straight back up & down 2. DEADLIFT , get to a vertical position coming up 3. AB WHEEL ROLL OUT , take out hip flexors.. avoid overextension , do not rock back and forth, let upper body do everything 4. TRICEPS EXTENSION , elbows angled backwards , fight against the force of gravity , do not extend triceps in a vertical position 5. LATERAL RAISES , keep thumb higher than the pinky , avoid “pouring the pitcher” & avoid the pinky being higher than the thumb 6. OVERHEAD SHOULDER PRESS , do not widen your arms on the bar, have your arms at a 45’ degree angle from straight horizontal , narrow up the grip on the bar , you’ll find yourself stronger here 7. BARBELL ROW , do not go extra wide on the bar , get arms adducted tightly on your sides , get arms narrow on the bar (hopefully this helps, i usually see funny comments instead of what’s going on in the video)
Dude you are Awesome!!! I was going to skip this video, because I thought I knew how to do these lifts. However, I told myself, hold on Jeff is doing these for a reason. I love it, you spend time showing what you see people doing wrong. The common mistakes. I was doing some things wrong. Did not need to spend 30 minutes watching video to get your points. You go quickly to the common mistakes. Yes, I felt as if I needed to push my hips out on the squat. Then making sure get to vertical, not hips forward, hands close in on the row. I never knew that lifting was so technical. I just can't tell you how much I appreciate what you do for free. I am a 55 year old male that has been now lifting for a year. I used to think I knew all about lifting from high school. Shit was I wrong. I tell anyone that wants to lift to watch your stuff. Again I got to say thank you, thank you!! Keep it up, show us some more great moves, and the common mistakes!!! I am getting big too!!! I buddy and I are also trying to bowl a perfect game, 300. Would not even been thinkable a year ago, and without my lifting. We bowl for like 4 hours and are exhausted at the end. Very physical and great workout.
The OHP tip is really on point, guys. Starting strength is a good read on this topic. When you narrow your grip in as illustrated here, it makes it so much easier to hug your arms against your lats, core, and tighten your glutes to create a platform from which to press vertically. Holding the bar out wide can feel unnatural. You can also see in the side-by-side video that in the wide grip his forearm angle is actually slightly outwards, which breaks down his kinetic chain. With the narrow grip he's got a compact wrist column that lines up naturally with his elbow. This enables better transfer of energy from the floor to the top of the lift. Great video, Jeff. I am guilty of the lateral raise mistake, glad I have learned something!
I used to have shoulder injury and it was very difficult to add weight to the training. Then I watched and listened everything Jeff said and I could lift much stronger now. Thank you Jeff for caring for our shoulders
Thanks Jeff! Always looking out for the health of our joints and getting the most out of our exercises. Since I've been watching you, I've lost about 4% body fat (now sitting at 10%) and gained 3 lbs of lean muscle. That was about 3 months ago. God bless you and your family, and I look forward to seeing more of your videos!
Jeff is the best virtual personal trainer. He is very easy to understand and he is looking out for your best fitness interest. Thank you, please keep your channel going.
Jeff - been watching the videos for years. You were the first fitness UA-camr who got me to finally get off my ass and get healthy. Thanks brother. Forever indebted.
Great point about the squat and deadlift! I always stress for ppl to try to think of where the direction of resistance is coming from and that seems to help prevent some of these mistaken movements.
You're the best I've seen. From years of orthopedic training, I've learned the importance of staying in one plane when stressing the body. Crossing planes can be a hindrance to proper movement and a painful injury.
I started to have rotator cuff pain with my previous workout. When I saw Jeff's videos, I started following what he had to say. So much so that I'm in week 7. I'm glad I signed up to Athlean - x and don't do my previous workout! I can now do overhead press again and close grip bench! Thanks Jeff!
@Michael Dust Jeff is trying to demonstrate slow and controlled movement with perfect form (and also not so perfect form) for a video; why the hell would he go super heavy on the exercises?
@@legendariersgaming exactly, you cant work on form when lifting big, leave the ego at home, lift low concentrate on form, I work on a 6-1 schedule push,pull,legs,push,pull,legs,rest, half my week is high reps low weight mainly focusing on form and mind muscle connection while adding a few extra seconds under tension to each rep, the other half I go low reps high weight about 85% my 1 rep max, but everyone has there own style and if it works for u then whos to say otherwise. just getting your ass to the gym in the 1st place grants u my respect take care guys.
If you're a fat guy getting thin and muscular I can recommend using a food-box service. That way you get a freshly made healthy meal a day. Then have 65g of oats with 300ml semi-skimmed milk for breakfast and two pieces of fruit for lunch and you're sorted. Do it for 1/2 a year and you learn how to cook and the right portion sizes. So far it has worked great for me, down about 15kg in weight and gained 4kg of muscle mass in the past six months (with another 15-17kg of fat to lose).
Jeff, thanks for all these videos. I've never heard anyone with as much understanding as you have...and you walk the walk as well. Top tier human being. Thanks again.
Joseph Kyzar not really.. you pay for it if you have UA-cam premium.. if you don’t, you pay for it by watching ads.. if you don’t have UA-cam premium and have adblocker, then you’re basically stealing this information. This shouldn’t be free information. Pay for it one way or the other, it’s the least we can do.
I started off as a 130 lb 6ft 17 year old .. I wasn’t eating healthy and thought I was eating enough. I stumbled across Jeff’s channel and it changed my life. I am now 165 just about a year after I started lifting. Jeffs form tips are on point and he has some great accessory expertise. FOLLOW HIS TIPS AND THE GAINS WILL COME. I supplement with a weight gainer and creatine preworkout, with a healthy diet you can look like Jeff too! Stay strong and keep grinding.
The roll out explanation was so friggin helpful. Going to focus on “locking my hips/butt into one position” and let my upper body do the work. Thanks Jeff!
Would be great to have a series, paid or othetwise, that really focuses of injury prevention and mobility. I love the video where jeff looks at what to do with back injury, but everyday mobility and prevention would be glorious! Cheers
Yeah i am in a weird situation where i end up needing to really lift to get my core, pelvis, shoulders, wrists, everything wrapped in muscle -- rheumatoid arthritis. Got tons of unevenly atrophied groups over it. Lifting as hard as i can for physical therapy, could care less for looks. This is like the only stuff i care about. Recovering as hard as I can because added pain/fatigue, NEAT expenditure, etc.
I’ve been lifting for 20 years and I’m still learning new things from Jeff. Sure wish I’d understood the problem with internal rotation on the flys a long time ago. Thanks Jeff!
Really glad you included the DB lateral raise fix. As a physical therapist myself, all too often I see many gym goers (as well as many personal trainers) recommend leading with their pinkies. While this may in fact target the medial delt more directly, the subtle difference is not worth the risk of impingement or injury.
I love the fact that not a single person hates or dislike jeff... He is acknowledged and loved by everyone who knows him.. not many people in your life you see with this fact...
I love videos like this. Making Fitness Simple is the main thing we do on our UA-cam Channel. To many people try to over complicate things and make it way more difficult then it needs to be.
Jeff you are a genius. Just the little subtle things you teach us make a huge difference. Thank you for everything you give us. Your loyal and dedicated fan and proud members of Team Athlean.
Jeff I cant thank you enough for all the information and insight you've given me over the years. Without your videos I would honestly be lost in the gym.
@TGMac Sanchez, I appreciate your compliment. @Ibnziyad Tariq, I appreciate you stepping up. Let's all take Jeff's tips, have a kickass workout and do something amazing and positive with our time rather than argue over something so unimportant!
Jeff, I get the goal of the squat is the angle when you are fully extended, but you need to use a smaller plate or no plate at all. It's hard to see what the complete perfect squat movement shoud look like with thr plate covering your whole body.
I am anxious to give this a try because my shoulders, especially the right have been KILLING me. Thanks for taking the time to explain and demo these techniques.
These are such practical but priceless tips on tweaking technique on all these key exercises. And as a 44 year old training hard with weights, avoiding injuries is just as important as getting bigger and stronger. Kudos to Jeff for this invaluable video. I have had a right shoulder injury four years ago (road accident) and I have only begun weight training 6 months ago. Real pity I tried but cannot do the overhead press with my dumbbells. Wonder if using a heavy plate instead might be better.
As someone in his mid-thirties who can't afford to injure himself your videos are incredibly helpful! I've struggled with shoulder problems for years and now even after a few months of weight training I don't have any problems whatsoever - thanks!!!
Thanks! I do have issues with my shoulders from past injuries so if I do a lift wrong I know I'm going to be feeling it for weeks. These videos are definitely helping.
Thanks very much for pointing these out Jeff, I recovered from slight shoulder impingement a few months ago and a trainer at the gym I now go to suggested the “pour the pitcher” form for my side lateral raises, nice to get the info that will allow me to avoid another lengthy recovery from more impingement.
This was really an exceptionable video. So much really useful information presented in a very easy to understand manner. This is how I aim to communicate. It's not just the knowledge, but also the clear communication of the subject matter that sets Jeff apart from everyone else.
When Jeff says putting science into your workout, he is not kidding. his workouts and videos tips are loaded with physics and natural human physio-kinetics. Even with my science background, I find myself correcting my technique and form. All thanks to Jeff. The best thing about him is that he explains it all logically, in detail, and with examples. Can't get any better nor can't get enough of these videos.
Hey guys, just wanna ask your opinion about this. Do you think 2 sets per exercise is enough? I do 10 sets per session for a given muscle group and i do it twice a week so 20 weekly sets in total. I do for the back 2 sets of deadlifts, 2 sets for pulldowns 2 sets for rows, 2 for face pulls and 2 for the shrugs and i do it twice a week. What do you guys think? Thank you, hope ya'll doing well.
@@depressedcow9564 what are your goals, king? High volume squats give massive legs, low volume 3x3 of squats will give powerful legs for example Are you asking for back specifically or everything ?
Something's better than nothing. That's for sure. Alot of variables...depends on your fitness goals, the amount of weight you're using & how hard your muscles are working with your reps and sets and weights. I'd say add a third day, increase weights, increase sets (maybe a third set could be higher reps rather than weighted) as you progress. I prefer full body workout approach, but there's days I simply don't have the energy for it , so I pick and choose on some days. That's still a success not a failure.
According to scientific finding, 10-20 sets per week per muscle group is the most optimal for gains. So, I'd like to say yes... But, to me deadlift is not really considered back workout. And face pull? It's more for rear delts and rotator cuff. Personally, I'd like to add some more sets or exercises which target lats more, whether pull-ups, or row variants. How about you give it a try? And see what's your optimal sets which gives you the most gains but also not impede your recovery.
I love these videos that give insight on getting more “bang for your buck.” I would really love to see a workout of what Jeff does in the gym. A “day in the life/gym” for Jeff. How does Jeff approach a “normal” day in the gym for him. These videos have helped me out a lot by the way.
Awesome info, especially for the shoulders. You're so right about a slight chanfe in how you grip the bar makes all the difference. Your video was very informative, in depth, extremely helpful and I thank you! 💪🏽💪🏽

Jeff, how do I make my immune system muscular?
Put some Tren in your vaccines when the doctor ain't looking.
Avocado's.. plenty of them.
Adequate sleep, exercise, proper nutrition, reduce stress, probiotics, vitamin C, and vitamin D.
Face pulls
Try Connor Murphy's divine shake.
You're the best I've seen. From years of orthopedic training, I've learned the importance of staying in one plane when stressing the body. Crossing planes can be a hindrance to proper movement and a painful injury.

Stryd&Defy fricking casual
Why would you want to loose the giveaway? What did the giveaway do to you?
Jeff you never cease to tweak my movements to maximize these GAINS. good ish
Where’s the link for the giveaway 🤣🤣🤣 I’m too early
This was really an exceptionable video. So much really useful information presented in a very easy to understand manner. This is how I aim to communicate. It's not just the knowledge, but also the clear communication of the subject matter that sets Jeff apart from everyone else.
No more free plans 😭
When Jeff says putting science into your workout, he is not kidding. his workouts and videos tips are loaded with physics and natural human physio-kinetics. Even with my science background, I find myself correcting my technique and form. All thanks to Jeff. The best thing about him is that he explains it all logically, in detail, and with examples. Can't get any better nor can't get enough of these videos.
Another video... another L for me on this giveaway

I see you refreshing this comment section
After shoulder labrum tear, I look for every opportunity to make my press exercises safer. As always, thanks Jeff!
Hey guys, just wanna ask your opinion about this. Do you think 2 sets per exercise is enough? I do 10 sets per session for a given muscle group and i do it twice a week so 20 weekly sets in total. I do for the back 2 sets of deadlifts, 2 sets for pulldowns 2 sets for rows, 2 for face pulls and 2 for the shrugs and i do it twice a week. What do you guys think? Thank you, hope ya'll doing well.
Nah too few per exercise
Martin Wendland If i add 1 each, thats 30 weekly sets, man. What you think i should do?
@@depressedcow9564 what are your goals, king? High volume squats give massive legs, low volume 3x3 of squats will give powerful legs for example
Are you asking for back specifically or everything ?
Something's better than nothing. That's for sure. Alot of variables...depends on your fitness goals, the amount of weight you're using & how hard your muscles are working with your reps and sets and weights. I'd say add a third day, increase weights, increase sets (maybe a third set could be higher reps rather than weighted) as you progress. I prefer full body workout approach, but there's days I simply don't have the energy for it , so I pick and choose on some days. That's still a success not a failure.
According to scientific finding, 10-20 sets per week per muscle group is the most optimal for gains. So, I'd like to say yes...
But, to me deadlift is not really considered back workout. And face pull? It's more for rear delts and rotator cuff.
Personally, I'd like to add some more sets or exercises which target lats more, whether pull-ups, or row variants.
How about you give it a try? And see what's your optimal sets which gives you the most gains but also not impede your recovery.
Jeff, Thank you for helping us help our bodies.
THE COMMENT SECTION WONT LOAD FOR ME
Same. Rip.
I love these videos that give insight on getting more “bang for your buck.” I would really love to see a workout of what Jeff does in the gym. A “day in the life/gym” for Jeff. How does Jeff approach a “normal” day in the gym for him. These videos have helped me out a lot by the way.

Awesome info, especially for the shoulders. You're so right about a slight chanfe in how you grip the bar makes all the difference. Your video was very informative, in depth, extremely helpful and I thank you! 💪🏽💪🏽
Hey Jeff, Can we switch our bodies ? just for one day😂
The Wise Wizard why? You’d feel like shit for the rest of your life
