  • @biglabrador
    @biglabrador 2 роки тому +11

    If there was a Nobel Prize for explanation of exercise/movement dessription, you would deserve it Mike. Thank you for the valuable info. The problem you describe with the overly tensed movement execution by some people may stem from trying to adhere to the constant tension principle - some may take it too literally and stay, well, tensed over the whole movement execution. You are absolutely right saying that the way people train translates into how they move in- and outside the gym. Hence my question - should we relax a muscle at the bottom portion of a rep, be it the negative portion of a curl, a press, a row or a pull? For example - should one extend the arms fully when doing curls, or should one keep constant tention and keep a slight bend at the bottom?

      I agree, Mike explains everything into detail without being boring. One of my buddies who I have known and trained with for over 27 years, who is 67 years old who said he same thing. I just wish Mike was around when I was a kid cause I would have not had so many injuries! Im 48 now and I and i watch mikes vids and I get sweet pumps, that I never had when I was in my 20's, Its crazy! Now my buddy tells me, hey have you seen Mikes new vid yet?!

    I like shrugging in between pulleys with d handles for this reason. I first set the pulleys a little lower than shoulder height. Walk back so my arms can fully extend and still have pressure. Then, using scapula and traps, shrug straight back and slightly up. Can do additions sets with the pulleys at lower positions too.

    @tc106 Рік тому

    I discovered a long time ago, that doing double kettlebell or dumbell snatches and cleans on the outside of the legs really made my traps grow. The leaning forward aspect is the same that you're showing (on the pull). The only difference being with the Olympic lifts you're going to use the hip and legs. Which could be a positive or negative; depending on how you look at it. The positive being the hip and legs can assist and force the traps to do more when doing higher reps.
