  • @Football__Junkie
    @Football__Junkie Рік тому +77

    My tips to add:
    1) train arms first and/or on their own day
    2) do a 50 rep warmup set with a light warmup weight before you start a heavy exercise
    3) any exercise that is hard with a really low weight is a great exercise because you have a lot of opportunity to add volume and intensity

    • @Football__Junkie

      Extra tip: if something feels wrong with the bicep or tricep then don’t push it. Not worth risking injury. Sometimes when I’m dehydrated my arms feel real tender around the elbow.

    I train full body three times a week. I put one day aside purely for arms which consists of high volume exercises. I realised early on in my lifting career that heavy weights does not build big arms necessarily it's the mind-muscle connection which I've mastered although there's always room for improvement :)

    I remember as a teenager seeing this guy at my gym with the biggest arms I've ever seen. One day I ask him what to do and he literally just tells me to lift 5-10lb weights for 100s of reps each set... I tried that for a few months and of course it didn't work. Worst advice I've ever heard looking back.

    Once I figured out how to do skull crushers and not affect my elbows negatively, they became one of my favorite triceps exercise. 💪
    What works for me: warm up your elbows first! Almost anyone can do high rep pressdowns with a band to get everything nice and warm. If you're at the gym, just do some sets of cable pressdowns first. Skull crushers with an ez bar with a shoulder width grip and elbows tucked is what I've settled upon. Slow, controlled eccentric (let your elbows drift slightly downward as you start the movement). Keep those elbows tucked in. Focus on really extending the arm at the elbow as you press the weight upward. I think the touch point for the exercise is highly dependent on your arm anthropometry. Probably experiment with different touch points and see what works for your elbow health. For me, somewhere between my chin and nose is very easy on my elbows (I have long upper arms).

  • @balintlosonci3578
    @balintlosonci3578 Рік тому +12

    Great points sir! To have more arm focus, I shifted to legs, arms/delts, rest, chest/back, rest, repeat split. But I do a small pump session for all muscle groups on another day as well. For example on legs day, I do just a few myo-rep sets for back and chest (pushups and band pulldowns) or arm pump on chest/back day. For the pump work it's always shortened biased movements that don't have a big recovery demand. But from this video I get that perhaps I can add more sets even for that pump session.

  • @aceshibyoch9603
    @aceshibyoch9603 Рік тому +1

    @3:11 I got to this point and thought, for me personally, I find getting the muscle pumped just kind of "verifies" that you're excercizing the right muscle. Thinking about it, if you're doing direct "targeting" a pump is a great indicator that you've successfully established a good Mind-Muscle connection. I can see how folks also may think the "Pump" isn't a huge factor in big compound moves though. In the end, do what works for you. Try and experiment. BUT... the most important things to me are Start! and maintain Consistency over Time.

    I do a routine of compound lifts for arms (6-8 reps) and then I do a higher rep finishing set usually between 12-15 reps with about 60-70% of the original working sets weight. At some point, slowing down the movement a bit helps too. It becomes tougher as mentioned without some body english as the weight won't move without some, though it is possible. Talk about intense. There comes a point as well where the risk outweighs the reward with increasing the weight. I always ask myself what my goals are. #1 is don't get hurt. I'm 47 and I've been training since my early 20s when bodybuilding changed my life and health. Bodybuilding not only saved my life, it continues to support me in all I do. Self care is so important.

If you are hardgainer then pass away from isolating movements, use presses for triceps and row, chin/pull ups for biceps, simple. Forget about isolation for at least 3-5 years, except only for grip.

    My elbows still bitch even if I do skull crushers after push-downs, and while using elbow sleeves. Specifically my right hand (dominant, must be tennis elbow from progressively overloading my fapping). But using resistance bands seems to have solved the problem. In general, for triceps, shoulders and accessories I find bands to be amazing

      You should use elbow wraps when training triceps. I had the same problem with my left arm, tennis’s elbow. Wearing elbow wraps not sleeves help so much plus if you wear them for a couple weeks the tennis elbow went away.

    I wish all these tik tok scholars could understand most of the shit their doing is just making them look like morons to guys that know the bread and butter. Love this channel.

    Can you also make a fully customized training program specifically tailored to one's needs that can be used for long-term? I would be very interested to purchase a custom program made by you based on these principles. Somewhat of a blueprint for me personally to achieve the body and strength I desire.
    I watch a lot of your videos and understand the main principles. But I am struggling to mix them into a well thought out and balanced program aimed at longterm progress. Would def. Like your help and expertise with that.
