I thought the drag curl was simply doing curls while wearing women's clothes.
Grigor Mortis If you can crush leg day in a mini skirt and tube top, go for it!!!
i met one once! hahaha actually he was pretty cool ya know, no judgement and all... but was a marine vet who wore a bra and dress and his wife... lol man i think she was more masculine than he was but ya know, he wasnt one to fuck with. I wonder how he is... all these years pass... he helped me repair my pathfinder! hydrolocked the engine offroading and he was a gear head too so ya know, we hit it off! helped me learn to rebuild autos as well,
You can do that if you want to.
Grigor Mortis Best comment ever!
You must also have a but plug in your ass to strengthen the sphincter muscle. Kinda like kegals
Oh yeah, longing for the days when my brother and I cruised the gut in his '56 Chevy listening to Cat Stevens on 8 track and doing arm curls with some cement filled dumbbells. And of course hitting the wolf whistle at girls in crosswalks. Awesome video dudes.
When are we going to see more of Buff Dad?
BROGAINS Fitness thanks BROGAINS; look for me in a cameo in the DBB video coming soon
Awesome, and no problem! I have a brother as well, and we workout with our father in our garage, so it's nice to see another trio doing the same!
DIY Duke I'm gonna go wolf whistle at all the girls in my university humanities building, I'll let you know how it went!
Do or die, buff dudes guys!
john harker ha, ha - do it John, it should go well, I mean it's the humanities class. What could go wrong? 😉
I used most of these when I lifted back in School my Freshman to Senior years. Even my football couch asked why I was doing them and how did I even know about them. I tried to get the other guys on my team to do these, but most said they didn't want to. (I spent at least an hour in the gym after school, even after football practice, no one else wanted to meet me even halfway).Using these exercises I was also easily the strongest man at my school when I graduated.
Hey dudes! We did a written version of this video for bodybuildingdotcom here: www.bodybuilding.com/content/old-school-cool-8-exercises-that-deserve-to-be-remembered.html
I like more zercher squat, scott press and floor press
Buff Dudes where is the dragon ball video??!!
Buff Dudes I'd Pay For These Fuckers To Help Me With My Workout. Seriously lackin motivation
Jr Mac De'Swade
who are you mad at
rafael nacha myself. used to be in great shape. put on a grip of weight since h.s. cardio is down muscle is there but i tried boxing the other day like i did growing up and it was pathetic.
Whats better than bility?
Mo'bility
A'bility is better
these lame ass jokes have no sta-bility.
Without a'bility and mo'bility there is no sta'bility

You guys have dis-abilitys
Best visualisation aid for vacuums?
Think of Frank Zane.
Repped.
If you want to understand them better, look up uddiyana bandhaand then Nauli Kriya.
Or look up an old magazine called maxalding that featured all of the steps and progression of the exercise. Starting with laying on the ground, sitting and then standing. Eventually working up to being able to contract each individual side of the abdominal wall. Referred to as "isolated control of abdominal leaflets".
@khechari if i do stomach vaccum and pullovers and both uddiyana bandhaand n Nauli Kriya .. will i get the ultimate vaccum effect? waste smaller abs in and pop chest?
I like Vacuums but they make me need a shit
I've done all these when I was young. Hahaha. Floor press was because I had a barbell but no bench.
Great place to start is on the floor or I call it OTF for short. From doing bodyweight resistance training and using gravity. I got muscular doing foundational exercises and harder training being on the floor.
Thank you so much, Brandon and Hudson. I've made amazing gains ever since I discovered your videos... Hands down my favorite fitness channel on youtube! Keep up the awesome work, dudes!
Zercher, interesting. It's like a front squat except I don't have break my wrists trying to do it.
Might break your elbows though
If you don't have the wrist flexibility, just use the cross arm hold for front squats. Zercher squats look like they will put a lot of pressure on your bicep tendon.
If front squats hurt your wrists, you're doing them wrong. The bar is meant to rest on your front delts (not collarbones or being held in your hands).
Front squat requires no wrist flexibility if done right
Wahid thanks dude who took the gist of a different comment and commented it just to feel smart. 👍
Pullovers are great, helped me alot to develop a nice chest & back
Pullover!
No it's a cardigan! But thanks for noticing!
Hahaha!......Dumb and Dumber!
Then he drank the piss 😂😂😂
The Otis-ups look awesome. Thanks!
I've been doing vacuums and pullovers for years.
I've been dealing with a lot of shoulder pain during bench, incline, and OHP. I started doing the Bradford Press with the bar as a warm up and the difference was night and day. Also super setting the Bradford Press with the Scott Press was a killer. Thanks bro.
I never had a problem when doing the barbell press behind neck, but when I did the Bradford Press I had a shoulder injury that lasted a long time.
I've been watching yall's videos for a couple of months now. I've come pretty far! I was just a "chubby" guy who had no muscle but now I'm 35 pounds lighter with some muscle coming in! these videos have really helped out; keep it up :).
Dude you just forgot to mention about the best the most adaptablr and immortal of all old school exercises...
THE ALL MIGHTY PUSH UPS!!!!
Yeah they are, if you keep in mind the fact that are probably the first exercise ever made by man since ever. Awww They are so Fucking old school!
And also could be the most Badass exercise as well! So Push Ups Rules!
I personally see the term old school as:
(Something done the old ways) I dont know what it means to you guys.
More Majorum.
This is not gonna be a complete list, just some inspiration to look for something different than the standard exercises you hear about these days ;)
Kilo Foxtrot But the purpose of this video is was more about covering a few old school exercises that are more forgotten and not currently practiced as commonly as they once were. Where as the push up is a very well known common exercise that even people who don't exercise know what it is.
c0dy1287 the truth is that most of the people does not do them. They concentrate more on weights especially people who are not beginners anymore. But it's a great mistake from their part.
There's a lot of people out there who chan bench press 200 kg but they cannot correctly execute 100 push Ups in a row all day till they do 2000 per day. Nor they can do 120 in 60 seconds.
You should bend and do 100 push Ups instead of making excuses come on quick!
This wasn't really a video about old-school exercises, it was a video about old-school exercises that aren't popular anymore. Push-ups are still popular.
So I was doing the Bradford press all this time! Awesome
This advice is very helpful thanks Man!
Gotta do the vacuums right babe? SHOOOOOOP AHH
Jack Torrance RIP 💯💯
dopethrone pfp legend
Yep.
ELECTRIC WIZARD
I'll do pullovers in a pullover while being pulled over by a cop.
Davyen That takes alot of skill
+Davyen
Dang that oughta be a punch line.
Dudensky Bars 🔥🔥🔥
Dudensky
It's a cardigan, actually.
Then make sure to pull wiool over the cops eye
awesome video! so much fun with the presentation and music!!
these guys are Awesome...superb old school exercises . Definitely gonna add all these in routine
excellent video. ..
golden era exercises when bodybuilding was an art!
great video dudes!
I would like to add something on that last part about pullovers, since the pulling action naturally produces a stretch in your abdomen, if you notice it, it causes you to attain a natural vacuum, which is again a great sign of that 'old school' physique. always add pullover to your chest/back routines.
always staying fresh with videos and keeping your audience on our toes. well done again guys
seriously great vid dude. excellent stuff!
floor press is also great bc now you can challenge yourself on your weight without as much fear of shoulder injury ora need for a spotter bc if you cant lif the weight the bar will never fall on top of you
You know what's funny, we do the Scotts Press (with lighter weights), the Vacuum and a modified pull-over in my ballet class .
@earaza : Gay? Are you for real? Do you actually realise how strong you have to be to preform ballet? And controlled in muscular movements? Finally, think of all the incredibly fit and flexible women that you socialise with...
P.S. Anyone who makes such a comment like yours without thinking it through is particularly gay.
earaza the amount of o’s are inversely proportional to your confidence in your sexuality
Matty is gay guys
Gotta love this channel
My late old school karate master used to make me do the last one. He was a 12 time body building title holder too. Man, this brought back some memories I didn't expect to revisit. Thanks for making this video.
i love the pullover!
i never had the thicker upper torso until I started doing these. finally I started getting a V shape.
imma add the vacuums now, see what happens
Morty Sanchez what happened
what happened?
:/
I moved unexpectedly not long after this comment, and forgot this as a part of my work out routine...new gym and all
:( i forgot
This is insane! I remember watching the Buff Dudes years ago and for whatever they’ve recently showed up in my recommended. As I’m watching this awesome video I noticed their sitting at 1.9 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!!!!!!
Great job and keep up the hard work!
Great video, as always.
Ya'll are the best fitness channel on youtube! Thank you for posting such high-quality content on such a consistent basis!!!!
do some 1950's style videos ! workout or for fun doesn't matter ! :D
Old school body builders had it WAAAYYY tougher than today; and you see how some of them looked.
Pretty impressive if you ask me.
Great video. Definitely will be including these in my routine! You Had me laughin' through out it, in agreement to all your super man strong exercises!
Incredible video, you guys are the best fitness channel on UA-cam. You combine fantastic knowledge and information with brilliant showmanship to create the best videos around.
in my gym every body do pull overs on a chest day , im in a good gym
Joe mauma it's a stretching exercise rather than a contraction one
siddharth sharma if you lower the dumbell behind your head, it's for a lat and not a chest..
same in my gym and in a quarter rep
Who does it on chest day? It works the lats more than anything.
Luke Davies It actually depends on what rom you are using when performing them
This guy's voice, and personality could make him an actor, or a voice actor!
Good workouts brother!
Dude, love this video. Nice touch to the Retro style.Was really educational and really appreciate the use of your terminology and detailed step by step walkthroughs.
ive seen a ton of people doing pull overs at my gym
This guys form is awesome..actually looks like a real natty
I love the Scott Press! My new fav. Thanks guys!
Excellent vid! Amazed this hasn't been covered by you 2 earlier.
Well done on the vacuum
+buff dudes can you do a bulking series where u show everything u eat ???

Like i said they have like 46 videos on their channel were they show what they eat just click on the channel and then Playlists
Bradford press really good way to mess up your shoulders ☺
you are supposed to go really light on the bradford press, like, one third of what you would on regular overhead press, doing it with that weight will not mess up your rotator cuff, but will help increase your mobility and give a great pump
***** I think you replied to the wrong person but yeah I agree 😊
Its a great excersise to warmup your shoulders. You should never go heavy with that....
Yes I absolutely agree with that. I do this excersise for warmup only 2 sets of 10 reps with the barbell only without having plates on it. I also have weak shoulder joints so I have to take care not to overload them. This helped me to improve a bit my shoulder mobility too. Btw the same goes to the behind the neck lat pulldown... Lot of people do that but it really can fck up the shoulder joints.
jythfytfk j Scapular adduction and elevation is going to destroy your shoulders?
Thanks so much. I use these in my routine now.
Thanks man good to see some old school again
Tore my supraspinatus in my right shoulder a couple months ago doing the Bradford Press. Sucks. Otherwise, I enjoyed the video. But how could anyone forget about Pull-Overs?! Great exercise.
How much weight were you doing? I always keep the bradford press light to medium weight, it's risky if not done with absolutely perfect form.
cws480 behind the neck presses are always dangerous, shoulders are set in a compromising position
I wish I could remember the weight, but like I said, it was a couple months ago and I forget. After the injury, my physiotherapist discouraged me from further performing anything behind the neck. Oh well, this is how we learn.
There's literally no reason to do behind the neck presses. It provides no gains and messes up your rotator cuffs regardless of the amount of weight you're using. Just do regular military presses.
#1 : not taking steroid
I love love love this. Please do more old school videos
Great video! When I use to lift the pull over was a favorite, but I've since heard it's hard on the shoulders......t always felt good for me....felt powerful, and was effective! Overcoming injury bites, but I'm ready to go old school and try out these slick moves. Thanks for the motivation!
I don't see anybody doing dumbbel pullovers at my gym except me. And when I do it sometimes somebody comes and says : "u doin that on back day? lulz"
......
That zercher squat looks painful
The Toasty Vegan
No pain no gaaaaain broo
The Toasty Vegan typical vegan
Zercher carries are even more brutal
Adam Henderson Typical piece of shit
better with sandbag
Love the Buff Dudes! Inspiring. 💪🏼💪🏼
Nice take on the old school stuff. When I was writing for the mags I used to bring this stuff up but a lot of people weren't ready for it. Now, it's trendy. And a lot of guys do it wrong. You got it right. Well done. Let's see more! Roman chair and frog situps. Barbell hacks. Close grip pull-ups. Incline laterals. Standing incline curls. Barbell kickbacks, et al. That's the stuff that works!
I find workout machines to be overrated. I am more fond of archaic exercises, I use Dumbbells, Kettlebells, Barbells, Medicine Balls.
I didn't see a single machine in this video.
Def prefer old school but machines allow me to go real heavy without risking much injury
@today is not yesterday You're seriously 64 yrs old?
Don't forget barbell hack squats and zottman curls!!
Zottman? Realy, all they do is they work the brachioradyals on the negative movement instead of the bicep
@@hatergeneral4298 Yeah, exactly. They add a little bit more to the brachioradialis. I think that is the word you are trying to spell?
@@2Tall_Powerlifting and they take a bit from the bicep
Pull-overs have been in my routine for years. I’ve loved them!
It was a treat watching this! I have learnt alot in a few minutes! Thank you!
zercher squats hurt my forearms and biceps tendons. it's a lot more comfortable to do them whit a log than whit a barbel XD
its cause they are weak use less weight..u have been curling like shit
I just dropped a log fam
Anyone else try the vacuums for the rest of the vid haha
you actually do those while doing sit ups ( without having your feet restrained by a heavy object ), just exhale
and try to shrink your belly as much as you can then tighten it , put your hands on the sides of the obliques and cup it
firmly , then slowly do a sit up while exhaling slowly.
do that 10 times , rest, ten more times, rest, ten more times, rest.
doing the vacuums will help the increase of lung capacity, and will help you get a longer inhale, good way to get 100%
from your lungs.
Thanks for the vid! helps alot!
Always good to see a really decent BD vid. This one's got some good stuff.
I see a lot of people joking about this in the comments.I believe in this old school training,it’s no joke,I have always done pullovers,and they work great,I get a great stretch and also feel my triceps getting stretched.Today everyone is concerned about lifting heavy low reps.When at the gym I watch ego heavy is better training,I see big guys throwing heavy weights around,no form no negatives,just swing the weight around impressing the girls,and posting Facebook pictures of their macho heavy Superman lifts.They don’t realize the benefits of getting the pump,using medium heavy for 12 reps with strict form,or doing a old fashion full body workout every other day,instead all you hear about is I did my chest today,tomorrow I’ll hit the biceps triceps,and the next day legs etc.not realizing the split routine fad came from steroid users that were in recovery as they were still working out,some could workout arms twice a day,because the steroids were allowing them to workout different body parts all week long,and also allowing them to do extra sets for each body part,it takes a whole week to do that split routine.A natural bodybuilder in the 50s and 60s would train the whole body every other day,3 or 4 times a week,as time goes on and you get the proper rest,(God made the body to rest as a whole unit on recovery day,)you begin to also get conditioned,and you now have more endurance to add sets to your full body workout (your body will tell you when you start going into overtraining if you are doing too many sets on a body part)and you can up the poundage as you can do over 12 reps with the weight you were using)and you can do a couple of low set Superman poundage type compound exercises Bench squats deadlifts during same workout to satisfy those that like to go heavy(it all fits together in one full body workout)plus when you get more endurance you can super set,decrease rest time and get your aerobics in at the same time.Complete package doing 3 or 4 every other day full body workout.You are now getting the proper recovery,you are not sparking up the anabolic switch on rest days like the split routine does(confusing the body’s recovery process)the body is happy on rest days not having to put the switch on again,the body parts don’t get overtrained(overlapping the muscles trying to recover,but you just brought them back into action trying to isolate the muscle your training as the resting muscle must help stabilize your movement)The best part is the gains and how the blood with all the nutrients is going through your whole body in harmony in one workout session,you get a awesome pump,you get to start out easy and you are getting conditioning like a triathlon athlete,without overdoing crazy hours of aerobics that effect your muscle building energy sources.Try this out see how you like it,this is how Steve Reeves,Bill Pearl,John Grimick etc built classic balanced aesthetic body’s without killing themselves doing it.
I personally never got results from the Bro/split, bodybuilding, I have always done full body circuit training, although at times I split upper and lower body to different days so I can do more volume
I workout 6 days a week from Monday to Saturday.
Monday/Thursday: Shoulders, Chest, and Triceps and Abs.
Tuesday/Friday: Traps, Back, Biceps, Forearms and Abs.
Wednesday/Saturday: Legs and Abs.
I always do 5 sets of either 8 or 12 reps. For upper body I always do an extra 2 reps on the last set. For legs I do an extra 5 on the last set. Been using that program for 7 months now and keeping improving despite what most people say: "You have to change your program every 3 months or your muscles will get 'bored' and stop progressing."
Zercher squats are good way to tear your biceps. There's a reason people don't do them, just play it safe and stick to regular back squats.
Hi Zercher squats are great.
great work guys 👍
Your channel is lit af! Respect from Bulgaria. 💪
Doesn't that weird squat cut off blood flow to your forearm?
food unlimited probably..but gains are importanter
food unlimited possibly. The thicker the bar the less likely it will do that. use a squat Pad if u got it
I love when people write importanter instead of "more important" xD
Andreas I can't stand it #grammarnazitriggered
No it doesn't. Your forearm muscles are tensed (& possibly biceps too, I'll check next time I do them), the weight just sits on the muscles, it doesn't squash everything flat.
Kind of bummed I knew all of these. Surely there's some obscure old exercises that the carnival strongmen did back in the day?
tko4051 one handed snatch, kettle bells, standing bench/push press and they all were crippled by the time they were 35.... I'd suggest you go with modern physiological movements over what circus guys who were no bigger than your average gym rat used to do
Bent press. Why didn't they include bent press? Edit: Jefferson deadlift too.
Excellent video.
great! pullovers and drag curls already in plan!
I play Cricket so my right lat is severely stronger than the left. What do I do?
Michael Usher I too....use left hand for masturbation....it will balance the thing...
Michael Usher do an extra set or two for only your left when u work on ur lats,simple.
Michael Usher stop playing cricket
single straight arm pulldown and reach back as far as you can. Also single arm db row bringing your elbow back and up passed your hip
brandon and hudson i luv u #nohomo

Allaluca yup
Well he also used machines to
I'm drinking a protein shake right now 😝💪🏻
same here, Premier Protein Vannila flavor
I'm doing a painful spicy poo.
Loved this video! Yes, make pullovers great again!! I’ve just added them into my routine, they take a while to get used to but they are really satisfying and underrated!
Dude, that was amazing,
thank you . Nice music too.
Where is the dragon ball video???!!!
Shoot in 4K man...be buff in resolution too!!!!
Sid Sharma Really uneccesary
+Sid Sharma It's classic video u dumbass
definitely adding these to my workouts
Nice! I had forgotten them.
Zercher squat is the ultimate joint destroyer
How does it destroy your joints?
Jonathan Phillips do you really think applying vertical force on an elbow is a clever thing to do? Really?
I think the body is pretty tough, and can learn to withstand most things you throw at it (but not everything). If you look around you'll find some people can zercher squat massive weights: if it was dangerous I'm sure they'd fall apart. So unless you can give me a decent medical explanation for why it's dangerous, I'll assume my elbow will hold together fine. Why wouldn't it?
Jonathan Phillips you're welcome to try. I'm not going to waste my time explaining anything to a person who insist on not understanding the simple "don't force the joint improperly" rule.
Hayvan Adam I don't get how it's bad. It's an isometric contraction isn't it? It's not a unnatural angle?
Lol, how about we bring back the squats and deadlifts first.
Don't listen to him, Squats and Deadlifts are some drugs that I heard about someguys are usying
This shit is terrible, They only make the legs big, what kind of roid only work on legs? O.o
And besides of that, I always heard about the pain that those shit causes, don't go that way kido
They are easy to stop in the gym, the guys who use little shorts to show theyr hairy legs. They are always in some weird women machine., that I think works to create kitchen skills.
thx guys for both the motiviation and great info!
thanks man got the motivation i needed to workout again from this nice old school comic video
zercher squat? YYYYYYYYYYYEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH no i don't think so.
Rusty Blade DO WHATEVER IT TAKES!!! YOURE NOT A TRUE 5%ER IF YOU DONT
Rusty Blade I think they are not good. They look they are reducing the blood flow to your forearms
more than that, they look extremely painful. almost dangerous. how can you even have any weight on like that? no thanks, regular squats for me
pretty sure its lighter weight and higher reps then a regular squat thoooo
both definitely have their benefits
Perhaps. Still, no thanks
There is a reason we aren't doing them... Cause injury
MrMushroomish but injuries happen if you are dumb and or misinformed.
And some of these excercises are pretty dumb
Richard Decker you shouldn't be so arrogant injuries can happen to anyone
Zockanumber1 outside of gym, yes. Inside of gym, nah man, only misinformed(or dumb - because trying out stupid shit, that can injure you... is in my opinion the definition of being dumb) can get injured by weightlifting.
Don't worry, when you've recovered, you can do cool exercises too.
Seriously, why do you think they're dangerous?
great survey, love your style too. Keep up the awesome work.
amazing video. i really needed a motion for upper shoulder stability so thx
Good presentation of information
brandon you did an amazing job in this vid o my goodness you WENT HAM!!!
I bet your charisma undresses people. Thx for this vid
Thanks for the tip. Gonna add this to my routine
