For so many years, I kept my form as strict as possible and due to how stiff I was, ended up damaging tendons and ligaments. Adding the slight movement/swing that he suggests has caused new growth in muscles that hadn't made progress in years. It does make sense, doing that slight "rocking" generates torque at the muscle and adds more intensity and difficulty to the lift, while still moving fluidly. Big Thanks to Mike for sharing different methods and for reminding us of the good stuff we forgot.
Agreed
I’ve always felt this way I guess because it’s common sense but yet always listened to people saying be as strict as possible. I would always think that your body doesn’t want to move that way naturally and always felt more muscle involvement using movement lately
Mike always bringing the strictest form in the most non-strict manner...
There really is an art to this stuff.
Literally the last final 2 minutes was everything I needed. Hang from the shoulder, elbow and wrist, up and down, don't flex the bicep at the time, and don't lock the elbow, lock into lat.
I’m not a bodybuilder but I also don’t want to waste my time in the gym. Thanks for your instruction! Good stuff!
Seriously appreciate all of the videos you've made and making. I've changed my technique since finding your content a couple of weeks ago, early days but feel better, and more connected which is something I've never really had before. I truly was just lifting A-B for many years with very little in results.
The delivery is spot on too, no pandering to a bunch of feeble minded ninnies 🙏
I just enjoy the fact there's always new things to learn in this community.
And in one video I realize I'm curling too heavy and being too rigid, which is most likely the reason I have a shoulder impingement and a knot in my rhomboid. Your videos are slowly retraining me properly. Thank you!
Can never get enough bicep content
Those back-pad elongated curls or whatever we want to call them have become my favorite move. I don't need more than 15-20 lbs while going for 10-15 reps (depends on how well the first two sets go 😂). It's such a great movement that forces you to abide by Mike's Bicep Rules
Thank you Mike for your insight into how the body works with muscle movement, love how you show how you position the rest of your body with movement...
Mike is the best trainer on youtube
I second that 💪🏾💪🏾
Mike doing your dumbbells drag curls has actually blown my biceps up so quick
This Man is a Legend , He knows Anatomy better than anyone else in this world , One of the best Experts like Hany Rambod 💪🏻
Your content is so helpful as well as confirming. My coach tells me a lot of this all the time and I’m the moment I try or even am able to do it. But seeing it here after is super helpful to further understanding the ins and outs and whys of it all. Thank you
Hey Mike, thanks a lot for these videos its been transforming my training.
It has been a long time since I had DOMS instead of joint pain. Your videos have helped me strip away the BS and get back on the muscle. Thanks a million.
Great technique and teaching brother! Very helpful advice.
This is the first time I write a comment in a UA-cam video but that is my level of apreciation for this channel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge the connection with my body, weights, machines , bodybuilding and gym itself would be nothing without this channel.
Working on my proyects to achieve the goal of learning with you in person one day.
Greetings from Medellin Colombia 🇨🇴
Big Mike is the goat for trying new technique and if its legit he adds it to the Wycked arsenal💯💪🏽
Thank you so much. I definitely appreciate your knowledge and wish I could train with you
Thank you finally hitting biceps correct it's been a struggle always activating my shoulders I appreciate the help.
Thank you Mike for showing the Kettlebell Hammer Curl! An amazing exercise. Respects.
I had shoulder issues some years back and bought some kettlebells. Probably heavier than I should have, but anyway, they fixed my shoulder right up. Marvellous things.
So true. I trained with kettlebells for many years and noticed the same thing. People who had shoulder pain with overhead pressing and benching could do overhead kettlebell lifts.. I think in some instances it definitely strengthened their weak link.
Great video,Mike. The variations on some exercises are useful. I was also puzzled why we need to bring the bar so high on the curls, as you say it adds nothing. Some believe it forces more the muscle but it seems not being the case.
I have to admit, I Love the new intro no matter how many times I see it 😂, but definitely definitely miss the old one that beat was just seconds but man when I heard it WOW!!!!!!!!
0:57 Oh yeah, hammer curls are definitely better than the basic curls. Half the time with dumbells, and the other half with kettlebells. But i'm seeing the difference here. Thank you for sharing this with me. This was very helpful. Stay Hungry👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪💪🤝🤝👊👊👊👊💯💯💯💯💯💯
I got a pumped doing the 1 arm preacher with 10lbs a couple days ago when I saw this on your ig lol 💪🏼💪🏼😁😁 #BabyWeight
Im responding INCREDIBLY since using Mike's style of training. Its getting out of hand had to buy larger wife beaters and tshirts😭😭
I started using kettle bells for the same reason...my left shoulder is abit off due to training like a "fool" as a kid, this tool gives me a "natural "range of motion and stretching muscle.. makes sense to me at least and seems to work ... Thanks for the info Mike..
Love those hanging DB curls 💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks coach
Thank you!
Love how in the beginning sounded like hulk hogan 😂😂
Hello Mike - thank you for valuable content. I would like to ask for your opinion on whether one should get to full albow extension at the bottom of the curls, particularly on a preacher bench. On the one hand full extension probably helps better engage the biceps in the bottom part of the movement, but on the other hand the risk of biceps tear also increases. Moreover, full extension relaxes the muscle for a split second and thus probably goes against the "constant tension" principle - is it more effective to adhere to the "constant tension" principle thus avoiding full extension, or use the full range of motion by going to full extension? All the best to you Mike.
I knew mike was huge but seeing him next to someone really shows it wow
He so right, taking the curl above breast line become,shoulder take over.
Love your content, may I ask your thoughts on fitness creaters who strongly preach the importance of the eccentric of moves like bicep curls & Lat raise etc. The total opposite to your teaching here.
Many Thanks🙏🏼
Hi Mike. Sure you’ve tried this before, but with your single bent over row have a go with the kettle bell the plane of movements great due the balance (as you said re bicep). I don’t really use KBs apart from this movement (occasionally to add something different). Worth a play around.
Mike you would make a killing with a training app
The gains I've seen in my biceps, relate to this approach. Isolate your bicep however you can, ( I do mine on an incline bench) let your arm, "hang" and stop the curl at the top, when your bicep can't contract anymore. The only other variant I do, is start the set with a heavier weight to almost failure, the switch to 50% of that weight & take it to failure.
Hanging off the incline is called spider curls correct?
People their are optimal ranges of motion on all movements.Bicept curls.... The further you go up with the weights the less tension your bicep is under...
no eccentrique with the kettlebell ?
Do you go to failure for growth with biceps?
Fucking great!
How to prevent forearm pain with bicep curls?
Try to think more about just flexing your bicep when you start the rep and it should displace the load on your forearm
It’s crazy to see this logic in motion. I see people at the gym all the time being so stiff, locked, red-faced reps. I was guilty of it as well but seeing everyone else do it, I said whatever. It never seemed right to me but seeing this video, it shows how it’s better to be loose and relax, while letting your muscle tighten on it’s own.
All bicep curls are the same cause the elbow only opens and closes the same exact way each time.
So whatever curl is in a lot of ways the same although some might feel different.
Still waiting on those Mozzarella sticks you're gonna put out...
where is your thinking about joe weider 😂
listen joe weider
I feel like when you advise to swing or rock into the movement. The movement itself isn't "locked" in or braced to fully ISOLATE
Who gives a fuck about your feelings ? Try it and then report back
It's something you have to learn to do. Best way to learn it.. is lessen the weight and allow your body to show you the movement patterns. It's all there.... But with heavy weight... We get rigid, we shorten range of motion and then pains come. I revamped my training after I learned the principles of lifting he teaches. From there you can apply it everywhere... And now it all makes sense.
Fully bracing is the problem too many robots that are stiff and have no muscle aka you
@@user-xs4rm1ti8f 😂
I disagree with this take. Id actually say the opposite
Hey Big Mike, Janelle asked me to Sadie Hawkins next month and I don't know how to dance. Please please please loan me the money to take those tango classes you told me about last year. If I don't impress Janelle how is she know I'm serious about being her boyfriend???
and half the roids
Seeing that the bicep causes shoulder flexion, yes raising the elbow on a bicep curl causes a greater contraction. Craaazzzyyyy right.
