ScottHermanFitness I have a bad bicep imbalance and have been trying consistently to fix it. More vids and tips about bicep muscle imbalances would be great
ScottHermanFitness Scott you absolute legend. Still going strong after all these years. Even better guy in person ... so so modest & humble ... such a great feeling getting meet you on Friday at bodypower and do a set of push ups 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I really started to do the cheat and recover reps about a month ago, and I can feel the gains coming on strong! Gf sure noticed. Thanks Scott I'm convinced on those
Nice man! That's what I like to hear! Keep smashing it!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
I've been using your videos for ideas and guidance since I started going back to the gym everyday last August. I'm still focused on weight loss but have added muscle. I'm still a beginner. thanks for making these. I'm not ready for this one yet. I lost 160lbs and I just have 40 more pounds to lose to reach my goal weight of 180. thanks to your videos I'll be ready to transition to hypertrophy training once I hit that goal. I'll enjoy the challenge of gaining weight, "muscle" instead of cardio, cardio, cardio.
That is awesome to hear man!! So proud of you!! Are you doing weight training at the same time though? ANd keeping protein high so you don't lose too much muscle you already have? Let us know if you need more help with that last 40lbs in our forums! www.MuscularStrength.com/forum
thanks for taking time to respond. I'm eating at least 100g of protein should be 140g or more to Gain muscle. I'm hitting it hard every day and the last 40 won't be around much longer. I'll check that forum.
Just subscribed a week ago and I have been binge watching u and I love what ur bringing! The fitness industry needs U. Ur on a Jeff cavalier level. Thank u so much for being the man u are. The fitness industry is suffering and it's guys like u that will save. U rock brother. Keep it coming
I'm sure it will help Luis!! Let's see those bicep gains bro!!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
I've been doing this exercise with C&R but I have not known the perfect form on how to do the cheat, so this helped a lot! Keep up the awesome work and I'm looking forward to the program!
Really excited for your cheat and recover program to release. doing your PPL program in the meantime. Love your videos, Scott. Keep sharing your knowledge with us! :-)
Cheers for that mate, I've been watching you for as long as I've been training (which is just over 7 weeks) I've seen significant progress, over that time, your tips as very valuable! Keep at it!
Glad I could help Thomas!! Keep training hard!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
I had the same problem a couple months ago and started using the cheat and recover with a single arm preacher curl. Its been about 10 weeks now and cant believe how much strong I've gotten because of it so quickly
Nice man! You should try straight barbell curls too.. it's intense!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
I've never really had an issue building my biceps as of lately I've been pretty satisfied with my workouts with them, Although this cheat and recover method might help push to a different level. Thanks like always Scott.
Scot!!!! Great tips and awesome demonstration! I just tried this at the gym and you can feel how you work your biceps. Thanks again and always my friend! Hugs from Mexico.
Great video Scott as always!! So sad I missed you in Birmingham due to work commitments over the weekend 😩 really wanted to come Body Power & get to meet you get some pics & gain lots of knowledge too... maybe next time!!!
Thanks for watching!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
hey if it wont do, try cable put it on the bottom and try do the exact same thing but just with cable, do it one handed or two handed. one handed grip is what work for me
For Beginners (like me about 3 months into the gym with muscle umbalance in biceps): Try the thing Jeff Cavaliere proposed: Get to the cable machine, do usual bicep curls till concentric failure, then static to isometric failure, then eccentric to failure. The basic problem for me is missing mind-muscle connection (and this is physical guys, your nerves aren't that well attached to your biceps in this case) on one side. So the aim should be to recover this so one can actually progress (I could hardly actively flex my left biceps at the start of my training). For me this is really working and I am able to control more recently. It takes a long time, but then again, youre essentially bridging nerve gaps with this so its understandable.
But are you only training your smaller/weaker arm? Because you should still be training both, otherwise your weak arm could become your strong arm, and then you're back to having an imbalance the opposite way.
You're very welcome Rene!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
It really is getting worn out. We get it, he has an accent. You are not funny. Now let's all concentrate on the valuable information that he is giving us!!
hi Scott ; nice to see you again and thanks for this tuto ; if you can please to add some exercises to grow up this muscle with calisthenics exercises ; we need some hard exercises ; thanks again
ScottHermanFitness thanks for your replay ; I hope that you add some exercises in calisthenics ; because lot of people prefer to do such like these exercises because firstly they can't access to the gym every day and doing the same exercises with weightlifting ; personally I find this unimportant to doing these routine every single day ; especially when my wrists started to hurt and so I had to stop weight lifting for a while and maybe forever ; thanks Scott and we're always looking for your new training videos .
Hey Scott, I'd love to see a similar video about triceps in the future! My biceps/triceps situation is the exact opposite of yours (biceps respond well and grow, triceps don't).
Awesome!! Hope you had a great workout!! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs

how do you force yourself to finish your last sets or exercises even when you're tired and your muscles are shot? i found pre workout helps a bit but i need to get that beast mode mentality

Hey Scott I really like your videos. I'm 16 almost 17. I started going to the gym with my friend a couple weeks ago (he's been going for a year now). For now since I'm starting I've been following his program, since I'm a beginner, which consists of Monday: Dynamic Upper Body Tuesday: Dynamic Lower Body/Heavy Shoulders Wednesday: Rest day Thursday: Heavy Upper body Friday: Heavy Lower Body/Dynamic Shoulders On uppers we do bench, pull ups, dips, t-bar rows, barbell curls, and tricep extensions. On lowers we do squats or deadlifts, leg extensions, leg curls, hack squats (only friday), calf raises, shoulder press, and rear delts extensions. I was wondering if i should stick with that for a bit and then maybe start my own routine with slightly different exercises just so it's more based on my strengths and weaknesses. Also I wanted to know if you had any tips or anything to say about the routine. Sorry for the long comment i'm really curious because i don't want to do the wrong stuff for me
Yeh the decline is so important and people often forget that and just quickly lower the weight without making an effort to concentrate on the motion as you go down and keep as much tension on the muscle as possible :))))
Yeah man eccentrics are super important for growth!! That's why cheat and recover works so well :-D Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
Well now I got something to try when I do my leg day, a fun little exercise that could confuse the body into thinking it’s another arm day, then get straight into squats lol
Hey Scott love the vids!!! Been watching for years! I've been having trouble growing my biceps for a while now and really want to try this method. Are there any other exercises I could try with this barbell one as well? Thanks! :)
I will be making a full program for cheat and recover, so that will have some other exercises you can do :-D Stay tuned! Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
This video got a little wordy for me. To simplify for my simple mind, as I understand, the growth of the bicep occurs more on the way down (negative) then when bringing the weight up. Per your example, you seems more focus on controlling the weight going down with less concern when bringing it up (keeping form in mind). If I'm on the right track, then for bicep growth, its best to do as heavy a weight that can be properly controlled for 8 reps. And how many sets - 3..4..5??
Yes my friend that is the jist of it. Sounds like you understood perfectly :-) I would do 3-4 sets of my cheat and recover method - I will have a program coming soon so you can follow that! Check out my other programs in the meantime - muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
I tried to meet you this weekend but the queue was over 2 hours long and had to get my train back 😭 I saw you though and you looked amazing as always 💪🏼 sad I couldn't tell you in person how much you've helped me in my fitness journey and how much your squat video to squat lower has really helped so much and changed the way I squat for the better! Xxx
Could you make a video where you explain the difference between a normal/overhand bent over barbell/dumbell row vs an underhand/reverse/supinated bent over barbell/dumbbell row
drake man I just want to know which areas of the muscles you hit in particulery. I know the difference of the exercice, but I want to know which is better and stuff (:
I have a stubborn chest, is there anything you can recommend for getting more out of my chest work outs? Great video and tips like these have helped me see growth in my arms!
calves looking good in this video too Scott. Making some gains all ovah!!!! Question. Isn't cheat and recover just a slightly different version of supersetting?
You're very welcome bro! Those biceps will thank you too :-D Make sure you check out the 12 week programs available on my site so you can get ready for my Cheat & recover program! muscularstrength.com/Full-Workout-Programs
Scott, I ALWAYS learn something and take away new ideas whenever I watch your videos - thank you! I seriously appreciate your honesty with everything you talk about. I'm so sorry if you've already answered this question before but when do you think it would be okay for someone to start trying cheat and recover? In other words, how long should someone have been weight lifting before trying cheat and recover?
Glad you enjoy the vids Chelsea!! Well, it would be AT LEAST 1 year, but maybe more if during the first year you didn't know what you were doing, and still don't really have a good understanding of mind-muscle connection.
Skip the curls and utilize strongman exercises like keg carries to really explode your biceps. Mine haven't been responding for over half of a year and no matter whose advice I took regarding curls - be it Scott's or Jeff Cavaliere's for example - the damn things wouldn't grow. Getting into powerlifting routines has helped my slumbering muscle groups awaken and grow.
Not in the specific way you've described, but I really want to do it your way! It's fun to do all kinds of lifts, but I don't think it's that efficient to limit oneself to only one way of executing an exercise. Thanks for tips, Scott! I love the videos.
This really helped my biceps grow. I know it will help you guys too! :-D
💪 *CLICK THAT NOTIFICATION BELL SO YOU NEVER MISS AN UPLOAD!*
ScottHermanFitness I have a bad bicep imbalance and have been trying consistently to fix it. More vids and tips about bicep muscle imbalances would be great

Hey Scott, should we strengthen our shoulder muscles first? I heard bicep training with weak shoulders can cause a snap during the concentric stage
here come the "bahhhhbelll" comments

hey if it wont do, try cable put it on the bottom and try do the exact same thing but just with cable, do it one handed or two handed. one handed grip is what work for me
+Jelly Gore yeah cable curls are amazing bro. Especially if you lean back
For Beginners (like me about 3 months into the gym with muscle umbalance in biceps): Try the thing Jeff Cavaliere proposed: Get to the cable machine, do usual bicep curls till concentric failure, then static to isometric failure, then eccentric to failure. The basic problem for me is missing mind-muscle connection (and this is physical guys, your nerves aren't that well attached to your biceps in this case) on one side.

okay bro. Will definitely check it out👍
Hey Scott I really like your videos. I'm 16 almost 17. I started going to the gym with my friend a couple weeks ago (he's been going for a year now). For now since I'm starting I've been following his program, since I'm a beginner, which consists of
Monday: Dynamic Upper Body
Tuesday: Dynamic Lower Body/Heavy Shoulders
Wednesday: Rest day
Thursday: Heavy Upper body
Friday: Heavy Lower Body/Dynamic Shoulders
On uppers we do bench, pull ups, dips, t-bar rows, barbell curls, and tricep extensions.
On lowers we do squats or deadlifts, leg extensions, leg curls, hack squats (only friday), calf raises, shoulder press, and rear delts extensions.
I was wondering if i should stick with that for a bit and then maybe start my own routine with slightly different exercises just so it's more based on my strengths and weaknesses.
Also I wanted to know if you had any tips or anything to say about the routine. Sorry for the long comment i'm really curious because i don't want to do the wrong stuff for me
Hi,I see it's been 4 years,so how are you now? And how's them gains?
scott can you tell me how to fix stretch marks from bicep after workout? i have those for a months and idk how to get rid of it.
Stretch marks are sometimes just part of working out. Check this out.

A lot of people take this advice and then overdo the eccentric time. It needs to be slow but not too long otherwise it becomes counter productive.
Thanks Scott i am applying this already and it very a new good challenge
Doing Scott's cheat reps followed by Jeff's 1.5 reps is sure death!
+3rKo that sounds brutal!!!!!! I love it!!!!
Well now I got something to try when I do my leg day, a fun little exercise that could confuse the body into thinking it’s another arm day, then get straight into squats lol
Hey Scott love the vids!!! Been watching for years! I've been having trouble growing my biceps for a while now and really want to try this method. Are there any other exercises I could try with this barbell one as well? Thanks! :)

This video got a little wordy for me. To simplify for my simple mind, as I understand, the growth of the bicep occurs more on the way down (negative) then when bringing the weight up. Per your example, you seems more focus on controlling the weight going down with less concern when bringing it up (keeping form in mind). If I'm on the right track, then for bicep growth, its best to do as heavy a weight that can be properly controlled for 8 reps. And how many sets - 3..4..5??
Yes my friend that is the jist of it. Sounds like you understood perfectly :-) I would do 3-4 sets of my cheat and recover method - I will have a program coming soon so you can follow that!

Classic, the reverse hang clean for big biceps.
+Gabriel Rangel lolol. #legit
great video man
Thanks Thomas!!
I tried to meet you this weekend but the queue was over 2 hours long and had to get my train back 😭 I saw you though and you looked amazing as always 💪🏼 sad I couldn't tell you in person how much you've helped me in my fitness journey and how much your squat video to squat lower has really helped so much and changed the way I squat for the better! Xxx
Oh sorry to hear that Liana!! BUt I'm glad I could help.. that's what I'm here for :-) Keep training hard, and maybe I'll catch you next time!
ScottHermanFitness Thanks for the reply and I'm sure we will! Have fun in the uk with you gal ❤️
Could you make a video where you explain the difference between a normal/overhand bent over barbell/dumbell row vs an underhand/reverse/supinated bent over barbell/dumbbell row
+Carl Simoens i sure as hell can!!! :-D
ScottHermanFitness thanks Scott! Really Appreciate it!
Carl you must be an idiot
drake man I just want to know which areas of the muscles you hit in particulery. I know the difference of the exercice, but I want to know which is better and stuff (:
Just saw you in the movie Heist! Had no idea
+robert glasgow yeah bro. Sergeant Thomas Forbes!!
I have a stubborn chest, is there anything you can recommend for getting more out of my chest work outs? Great video and tips like these have helped me see growth in my arms!
+Jack Roy i have a full vlog on cheat and recover chest workout. Give it a try!!
ScottHermanFitness can you send me a link for it
calves looking good in this video too Scott. Making some gains all ovah!!!! Question. Isn't cheat and recover just a slightly different version of supersetting?
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bell

Exactly! xD
Shut up

Scott, I ALWAYS learn something and take away new ideas whenever I watch your videos - thank you! I seriously appreciate your honesty with everything you talk about. I'm so sorry if you've already answered this question before but when do you think it would be okay for someone to start trying cheat and recover? In other words, how long should someone have been weight lifting before trying cheat and recover?
Glad you enjoy the vids Chelsea!!
Well, it would be AT LEAST 1 year, but maybe more if during the first year you didn't know what you were doing, and still don't really have a good understanding of mind-muscle connection.
Awesome, I'm at about 2 years of pretty solid weight lifting now so I think I may try it out soon - thank you so much!
+Chelsea Hunt you are very welcome!!
Skip the curls and utilize strongman exercises like keg carries to really explode your biceps. Mine haven't been responding for over half of a year and no matter whose advice I took regarding curls - be it Scott's or Jeff Cavaliere's for example - the damn things wouldn't grow.
Getting into powerlifting routines has helped my slumbering muscle groups awaken and grow.
Different things work for different people - did you try cheat and recover training on them though?
Not in the specific way you've described, but I really want to do it your way! It's fun to do all kinds of lifts, but I don't think it's that efficient to limit oneself to only one way of executing an exercise. Thanks for tips, Scott! I love the videos.
great vid, scott!!
Hey Scott. Gr8 to see u again. I'm gonna be going back to gym in 2 weeks ( after a gap of 2 months). How much weight should I use.?
As much weight as you can handle bro!
yo Scott great content bud. perhaps ypu could give up a good work out program for compound exercises
Hey Scott is video of you holding that guy while he's levering going to be in a bodypower vlog?
You'll have to wait and see :-D
Thanks, Scott!
How heavy do you go Scott? Do you just add 40% to the weight you use for sets of 8?
Just go as heavy as you can bro!
Hey man great vid as always. Question. Are those shoes asics? Where can i find them?
Thanks bro! They are ASICS Wrestling shoes, but I have had them for a while now.. pretty sure I just bought them online!
