This was so fun to watch, glad I found this video. Keep going please! I’m so excited to see this blow up idk why I feel like you’ll end near 100k this year EASILY
Hey Meagan, just stumbled across your channel actually sitting in the parking lot of my gym lol. Decided to watch a fitness video to get locked in and yours popped up, I like the mini vlog style and also I agree with the other comment about not lifting your butt off the bench. That's considered a cheat rep in lifting and can also tweak your lower back. Keep it up!
nice video, just a little tip: the warmup will have a better effect if done using cables instead of dumbells. with dumbells and standing straight all youre doing is isometrically holding, not targeting the shoulder as it should. dont know if it was intentional but hope it helps
Good content pretty chill reminds me of other creaters like Keiani and Sam defenitly so im defenitly a fan but if i may suggest a quick fix with the angle i know the vid is 2 months old so u might already have fixed it but at 02:27 i would recommend a lower angle maybe in the range of 30-45'ish degress for upper chest unless you are focusing front delts. Idk u said chest day and the bench angle just triggered me i suppose, but yeah keep it up.
no idea why you popped up on my youtube recommended but I'm glad i clicked bc these mini vlogs are fun to watch! huge respect for the grind and the self-improvement journey. I've got a couple things to say: try to keep your butt anchored to the bench! the arch is okay but taking your butt off the bench only lets you lift more weight at the expense of disproportionately higher low back injury probability over the long term. also the warmup you did with the dumbbells before benching is kinda a waste of time- a lot of new lifters do it because they've seen someone else do it and simply don't know any better, but the only muscle that movement somewhat stimulates is the biceps in an isometric since the force vector of the dumbbell just points downward (gravity). a much more effective and specific warm up would entail some arm circles to mobilize the shoulders and get some blood flowing into them, followed by around 8-12 reps at 30-50% of your working weight, then 4-7 reps at 70% of your working weight. after that, you can just rest a couple minutes and get into your working sets. for leg workouts this same warmup strategy works as well, i'd prob add in 5 minutes of walking on the treadmill to the very beginning of the warmup routine to increase your core temperature and get blood flow into the legs if you came to the gym straight from sitting down all day. hope this helps!
Thank you for taking the time to write this out! I will definitely keep that in mind I had no idea that taking your butt off the bench is detrimental to health in the long run. Also about the warmup lol I’ll keep that in mind as well. Thanks for the advice I appreciate it!
hey great vid just a littel tip about the incline bench, I think the best angel is 25 - 30 degrees bc if u go higher than that u will engage the shoulders more then the chest
You gotta put that bench on a 30 degree incline when hitting the dumbbell press and you'll FOR SURE be able to lift those 30 pound dumbbells in no time!!
I think you've got a lot of subs from your last workout video - it was cute, short, on point and with a good form - just like this one, btw! Defo agree with the other comments on form and the angle of the bench for the incline - my personal choice is 30° Also, try to slow down the eccentric movement (when you're going down after pushing up), it's better for muscle growth... Maybe not for this group if you're really afraid of getting too bulky, but it's good advice for pretty much any exercise, I've had great results after controlling the eccentric. Cheers ❤
The person I think youre thinking of is Theo Von. He has a lot of motivational quotes. Also I think its normal to have an arch on your back while pushing some heavy weights for bench press but your butt shouldnt really lift off of the bench or else you're using/straining your lower back. I think you should focus on having good form and keeping your back neutral and then if you really need to push the bar up for your last rep than drive through legs and arch your back for that last rep but you shouldn't be doing that for every rep. Just my advice to keep yourself injury free
NY personal trainer of 5 years, awesome bench form! An amazing alternative to the dumbbell shoulder warmup is using a band anchored to the rack. The dumbbell unfortunately pulls against the bicep when you’re trying to hit the rotators of the shoulder, the band will accomplish this! Hope it helps 💪🏼😁
Hello, how are you, a little advice, if you want your athletic health to last longer, especially your back, it is better not to lift your butt off the bench when you do the bench press, but keep it pressed against the bench. Have a nice day and good luck!
Hey I love what you are doing, Btw I am training calisthenics Lol. I started a new Agency recently and I would like to invite you in this journey to scale it to 10k/ month as a partner ( 50%/ 50%). Looking to hear from you soon.
The steeper the bench for incline, the more shoulders will kick in. Try setting it between 30 and 45° and see how it feels for your chest

Thank you for your advice! Have an amazing day!!
Yeah I just wanted to write that, it's really not healthy to lift butt when bench pressing.
