Honestly, I think it’s got to be hard on Jeff’s wife when half way though the night he needs to wake her up to sleep on the other side of the bed so he doesn’t get imbalances.
I’ve been doing Reg Park’s 5x5, and I’ve been loving it. Every beginner should ABSOLUTELY run a 5x5 program. It’ll get you strong and boost your overall confidence. I can’t recommend it enough.
Dear Jeff Could you please make a video series about "corrective exercises" and the exercises to do to strengthen supportive muscles, not just main muscle groups. I enjoy your other series about perfect workouts and checklists. Thanks.
how to get stronger training schedule.. monday - chest tuesday - chest wednesday - left chest thursday - right chest friday - chest/dumb bell only saturday - chest split sunday - rest/chest
Shahbaz Tariq the "Sore in 6 minutes" Legs edition. Try it dude. You'll b good. If u need more than that (!?) Do the 'Perfect leg work-out' or whatever it's called. That one will make u feel it.
He's not teaching us anything through this video though.. just rambling in my oppinion. Please correct me if I am wrong but its just 2mins of "go compound movements and progressive overload" and 5mins of "this isn't enough for being a complete athlete but i am not getting any more specific in telling you what you are missing"
The topic is quite interesting but I guess it's also very individual what you want to add: reverse-butterfly, calves, abbs/lower back....+ full mobility. thats what i call necessary
Thank you again, Jeff! My focus has been on building strength for years. Finding your channel has helped me streamline and modify over time to work around injuries and my planning for longevity. I have mobility issues which have been limiting, but working on accessories has helped me. Every few weeks I change my routine, but the big compound lifts have always been my foundation and default. And of course shocking the muscles by changing the movements, order and load. Thanks again for what you do!
To have an aesthetic body you obviously will need to have muscles to show. To have muscles you will need to cause hypertrophy, and to cause hypertrophy you will have to expose your body to weights that it is not used to lift. So in summary, the progressive overload is also required to have an aesthetic body. But, unlike the case in which you want to increase only strength, in which you can get to use weights that will allow you to do a very reduced amount of repetitions, for example from 1 to 5, to reach an aesthetic body you will also use heavy weights but that allow you to do, for example, 8 to 12 repetitions, increasing the time your muscle becomes under tension and generating more hypertrophy.
All facts. I did a 4 year full body 3 days a week transformation. Compounds was squats,bench press,shoulder press,deadlift,pendlay row, 5 reps then for smaller body parts i did curls,skullcrushers,side raises and shrugs 8 to 10 reps. Got pretty good results from the basics and progressively overloading.
@@daringfawn6958 i did a A B A one week B A B next week A workout was squat bench press pendlay row curls skullcrushers and side raises B workout was squat shoulder press deadlift pendlay row curls skull crushers and side raises. Mon wed fri.
Cool, I think full body 3 times a week is much better especially for older guys. You just don't recover fast enough and the joints etc ain't what they were.
@@KiLLaBushWooKiE doesn't a full Body training require a faster recovery than a split because your'e training every muscle group 3 times a week instead of only 1 or 2 times?
I've just watched your latest video, and this one came up as suggested. Watching this one, (again), afterwards was perfect. They compliment each other very well. Thank you for getting into the foundation that everyone should consider. Thank you, Jeff for what you do!
I started using the 5x5 app about 3 months ago and ive never worked out consistently for more than a few months going to the gym. But doing 5x5 has totally changed me, so glad to see you mention all the things im already doing! I do your ab workout and pull ups separately.
Yashas Redd hmmmm...I believe Jeff is the star of this series. definately has some high profile clients which ads interest for sure, still, nobody outshines Jeff Cavalier when it comes to the subject of this series and the numbers prove it.
I do a Push, Pull, Leg split with body weight Mon, Wed, Fri. I get my core lifts in, burnout with negatives, then work on my mind-muscle connection and do corrective exercises with bands. I never miss these days, and just use a weighted vest, some trx style rings, and bands so I can get the workout in anywhere I travel. If I’m feeling it on off days, I’ll hit the gym and focus on compound barbell/dumbbell lifts for power and burn out aesthetic muscles afterwards. I’ll do whatever muscle group has at least a two day rest period. Then I wrap those workouts up with hiit training once or twice per week.
This is the problem that I’ve always found with my football teams programs while growing up. Coaches focus completely on the numbers and increasing Bench, Squat, Deadlift, etc... Ever since starting athlean x my bench press hasn’t increased hardly at all, but I’m an incredible amount more athletic.
Not sure if that's a compliment. Correct technique should always increase performance. Imagine Usain bolt learning a new tweak that doesn't reduce his sprint time. What's the use?
VIVEK SINGH I would say that overall my performance is better. Better form, a little bit more weight, etc... but Bench press was always my best lift. Athlean x has helped tremendously with other lifts that I wasn’t so good at before.
well thats odd because I've never able to lift as much weight since I've been training with athleanx programs. One day I decided to test my 1 RM and I was blown away by the amount of strength I built without even performing low rep compound lifts. It's probably your nutrition that needs to be checked.
So I spent the last 9 months with a mystery injury in both shoulders only to find out I had weak/unengaged rotator cuffs. Easily fixed with a couple of weeks of resistance band work.
You are awesome. What you said is true. I am 61, i did workout for all the body parts for one half hour a day, 4 times a week until I am fully sweat out. I started to do lifting last eight month with dumbells and barbell curl only, including deadlift. Now I am able to lift heavy, just like you guys. Actually, my main purpose is to build strength and reduce my weight, as doing cardio for over years since I was 45, couldn't give strength and neither it reduce weight. However, with weight lifting, it seems that today, my muscles had developed very obviously too esp on my biceps, triceps, shoulders, lat, delt and I could also see my 6 pack hihi. My weight reduced from 88 kg, now I am 62 kg. The main thing is to set your mind to achieve these goals, with decipline, hard work and concentration. Never have dinner hihi. Its really really awesome. Tq bro.
Tu/Fri : 8 sets of squats w/varying rep ranges. Then 10-15 min of hill sprints. Wed/Sun : Upper body pushing and pulling. **I also do 2-3 sets of deadlifts on Sun. This basic routine with progressive overload has served me well. I hate bro splits and bodybuilding BS.
Couldn't agree more. As a newer lifter a good full body workout with compound lifts can't be beat. I try to preach it all the time to other beginners, but they never listen.
Jeff I must say I have been subscribed for a while. Monday I did 21 s for the first time since The 80 s. Those and seated incline dumbell curls. My bicepts have never been so sore!
10 years ago I began going to the gym casually. I say casually because anytime I got serious, I would plateau with gains and progress within a month and stop going. I started like most people, on the machines. It's all I knew how to do and the pictures highlighting the muscles being worked were really helpful. Fast forward 8 years. Still skinny and a little soft as well. I decided it was time to try stronglifts 5x5 which is a pure compound lift program. I also began eating like a monster. 4k cals a day. The gains I made were unreal... until after about a year of doing that, I realized my legs were progressing waaaaay faster than all other muscle groups. Especially my chest. My chest turned into a small area of fat storage. My thighs were quite big and glutes. I looked good with a shirt on but with a shirt off you could really see how my upper body, especially shoulders chest and arms were lagging behind. So over the last 4 months I've combined both compound lifts and isolation exercises in a PPL program. My chest, within about 3 to 4 weeks gained a lot of size just from the pure increase in volume. My back has much more definition. I also cut down to a more sustainable weight. Abs are showing again. I may not fill my shirts as well as I used to, but my body is hard again and defined again. I think it's a much better look. And as for quality of life? I don't run out of breath when walking up stairs, breath heavily when bent over to tie my shoes or struggle to put my socks on cause of the slight gut in the way. Much better to be fit and lean, and strong.
@@ivant5601 I wouldn't even know what to post to be honest. I like the idea but I don't think I'm entertaining enough for people to watch and enjoy it.. Although, I suppose I could use it as a way to keep a history of strength and form progress on some of the compound lifts.
@@ivant5601 Hey thanks man, I appreciate that. I still have a long road ahead of myself too. Just gotta keep at the grind in and outside the gym and trust the process. That's what I keep telling myself!
Don't miss out on nutrition and sleep also, and everyone please remember that sleep is more important then both combined its all just a trinity to good health. You need functional exercising, a nutritional clean diet, and adequate rest 6,8,10+ hours. Everything mentioned varies depending on the individual.
I appreciate the Science behind your videos. I really enjoy your channel. Another great video by ATHLEAN-X. Namaste 🙏 Lauren Eirk, YogaIntegratedScience
Jeff you are soooo right about being a well rounded athlete. It is a shame alot of people in the gym these days think they are doing something, but they are not. They think their strong and just try a one dimensional approach. They can't even do push ups, dips, or pull-ups. And these are the young ones. I have trained since junior high school, and I'm 42 now, and I have to admit I did not get it right until about 3 years ago. That is why i like your channel you show us how to train like an athlete, an all around athlete. Thanks Jeff.
Hey Jeff, really big fan here.I admire you not only as a trainer but as a person, because throught the difficulties and the thousands of questions that I had about training which I was afraid to ask because they would make fun of me , you were there for me all the way with your videos.The problem that I am facing is a stiff left trap, something like a trigger point.For some strange reason, my left trap hurts like hell during my chest training thus taking over the exercise.I have no problem on the bench press, but for some reason whenever I decide to do incline dumbell press or cables or even pushups, I feel a huge pain on my left trap which forces me to stop the exercise not because my chest can't take it but because my trap starts killing me.I don't even train my traps so it's not like they are overdeveloped. You mentioned that specific problem on the end of the "HOW TO FIX A STIFF NECK"video and said that you could cover that it in the future.Could you make a video in order to give us your thoughs on this?Haven't found anyone with your knowledge about stuff like this, so I think you are the only who could provide an insightful solution.
My big six are: Dumbbell box squats, RDLs, Pullups, dumbell bench press, seated overhead dumbell press, and inverted rows...less injury and better for neural hormonal stimulation without trashing for natty bodybuilding
@Deus Vult. Eating clean is not the same as eating every 4 hours lol. Eat at times that work for you. Anyone that says you MUST do otherwise is lying or misinformed
Yeah that's a pretty significant omission by leaving out dips. It's basically the upper body squat. Add that to this list and it's an extremely solid group of lifts.
Jeff has the big picture focus intelligent people need. He fills in the blanks in a holistic way. Depending upon what your goals are, this genius has got the plan.
Nothing compares to you Jeff! You are the main of few people I look up to on the subject of physical fitness.. keep it up man!!! You are truly inspiring!

So over the last 4 months I've combined both compound lifts and isolation exercises in a PPL program. My chest, within about 3 to 4 weeks gained a lot of size just from the pure increase in volume. My back has much more definition. I also cut down to a more sustainable weight. Abs are showing again. I may not fill my shirts as well as I used to, but my body is hard again and defined again. I think it's a much better look. And as for quality of life? I don't run out of breath when walking up stairs, breath heavily when bent over to tie my shoes or struggle to put my socks on cause of the slight gut in the way. Much better to be fit and lean, and strong.
Skar mac start a channel
@@ivant5601 I wouldn't even know what to post to be honest. I like the idea but I don't think I'm entertaining enough for people to watch and enjoy it.. Although, I suppose I could use it as a way to keep a history of strength and form progress on some of the compound lifts.
Yeah I get you, I just thought your story was dope to someone like me who’s trying to progress
@@ivant5601 Hey thanks man, I appreciate that. I still have a long road ahead of myself too. Just gotta keep at the grind in and outside the gym and trust the process. That's what I keep telling myself!
Np man, we all gotta keep grinding and progressing
One of Jeff's best videos in my opinion. So much gold here
Don't miss out on nutrition and sleep also, and everyone please remember that sleep is more important then both combined its all just a trinity to good health. You need functional exercising, a nutritional clean diet, and adequate rest 6,8,10+ hours. Everything mentioned varies depending on the individual.
What a dad speech. Thanks Dad. Really needed this.
Anime taught me the latter portion of this at a young age. I now love accessory lifts.
I appreciate the Science behind your videos. I really enjoy your channel. Another great video by ATHLEAN-X.
Namaste 🙏

Anyone gonna mention the fresh cut? ✂️🔥
Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe / 5x5 Strong Lifts
Jeff you are soooo right about being a well rounded athlete. It is a shame alot of people in the gym these days think they are doing something, but they are not. They think their strong and just try a one dimensional approach. They can't even do push ups, dips, or pull-ups. And these are the young ones. I have trained since junior high school, and I'm 42 now, and I have to admit I did not get it right until about 3 years ago. That is why i like your channel you show us how to train like an athlete, an all around athlete. Thanks Jeff.
Youre welcome for being a loyal subscriber
Subma you and 7 million others
Feeling v proud, I managed to get hold of the gym pull up bar today, Jeff! (I am only 5'2"!) 🤣🤣🤣
You should try out the ''Bring Sally up'' push up challenge. Would be cool to watch.
Hey Jeff, really big fan here.I admire you not only as a trainer but as a person, because throught the difficulties and the thousands of questions that I had about training which I was afraid to ask because they would make fun of me , you were there for me all the way with your videos.The problem that I am facing is a stiff left trap, something like a trigger point.For some strange reason, my left trap hurts like hell during my chest training thus taking over the exercise.I have no problem on the bench press, but for some reason whenever I decide to do incline dumbell press or cables or even pushups, I feel a huge pain on my left trap which forces me to stop the exercise not because my chest can't take it but because my trap starts killing me.I don't even train my traps so it's not like they are overdeveloped. You mentioned that specific problem on the end of the "HOW TO FIX A STIFF NECK"video and said that you could cover that it in the future.Could you make a video in order to give us your thoughs on this?Haven't found anyone with your knowledge about stuff like this, so I think you are the only who could provide an insightful solution.
Love it, Jeff!! Keep it coming. Also, Jessie, nice touch with the in-frame key and partial mirrored feedback loop. You're such a rule-breaker!
Who’s the jerk that takes the time to hit the dislike before there’s even one view

m1abrams 1776 I thought exactly the same thing
Haters everywhere
“Two things guys🤘🏽” 😂
Jeff likes and dislikes his own videos to avoid muscle imbalances
My big six are: Dumbbell box squats, RDLs, Pullups, dumbell bench press, seated overhead dumbell press, and inverted rows...less injury and better for neural hormonal stimulation without trashing for natty bodybuilding
I love your approach to body building. Thank u
What is this cloth on Jeff’s upper body?
Jeff, really loved the perfect workout series, please can you do a bodyweight edition for that ???
6 in six minutes bodyweight will solve that
@@ChevyRedneckGFX Yeah, but it's not "perfect" in the sense Jeff describes his workouts.
Head over to Chris Heria from Thenx, he shows a lot of bodyweight workouts.
Do the reddit recommended routine, hands down one of the best bodyweight programs ive seen :)
I thought it said “All you weed” until I saw the full thumbnail.
Jeff, you are always wise. Thank you for spreading this message. Congrats
I don’t think the corrective exercises are boring at all Jeff, thanks for being the best in the biz!
Great info as usual
Jesus loves you Jeff and Jessie. It's in Him we find our purpose and identity
😂😂
Who is Jesus?
Damn, I could imagine Jeff staying the same when he turns 50 years old.
Emmanuel Hendricks for real man. 👌
Plot twist Jeff is actually 105 years old
Terry crews is the same
My grand kids will watch his videos some day, and im still a virgin
AdvancxdPs3 TRT is a hell of a treatment
He's absolutely right
The three way lunge is a good way to move in all the planes of motion for your hips and is a great lower body warmup
Progressive Overload & 300-500 Caloric Surplus
Eating clen
@Deus Vult. Eating clean is not the same as eating every 4 hours lol. Eat at times that work for you. Anyone that says you MUST do otherwise is lying or misinformed
Yeah and "clean" food is like really expensive 😞😖
@@jjwaters4037 you dont need "clean food"
@@biesman5 I get fat if i dont eat really lean foods and stuff stupid genetics I guess 🤷♂️
Throw some weighted dips in there too and your golden.
Or weighted push ups
Yeah that's a pretty significant omission by leaving out dips. It's basically the upper body squat. Add that to this list and it's an extremely solid group of lifts.

Jeff has the big picture focus intelligent people need. He fills in the blanks in a holistic way. Depending upon what your goals are, this genius has got the plan.
Nothing compares to you Jeff! You are the main of few people I look up to on the subject of physical fitness.. keep it up man!!! You are truly inspiring!
