I gotchu💪🏼

Thanks my guy

The amount of growth humanity would see is crazy

#TheStruggleIsReal

Lol wtf wanted to comment exactly the same. At 2000kcal I lose one kg per month. Yeaterday I had a cheat day and ate 2500kcal 😂 must be nice to be born skinny

Thanks for the comments guys💪🏼Height and muscle mass greatly affect your BMR. I’m 6 ft 2 and weigh around 96kg now. So usually when I’m maintaining weight I consume around 3000 calories a day. During a bulk, around 3500. I’m losing around 0.5kg a week now, but as my weight drops the weekly weight loss wil also slowly decrease, resulting in me having to reduce my calories even more.

Simple yet effective

I agree! Still, no harm done in optimizing your workouts from the start. You’d definitely see more growth that way.

@@MarcoFitser True, but imo every educational video should have a disclaimer at the end saying that everything said before it didnt matter if you are not training hard. There are way too many people (i used to be one of them) that care too much about optimal training but don't train hard

I am 100% with you on that. Most people don’t push even near failure, which is the most important aspect to consider for muscle growth. Thank you for your feedback, I will definitely keep that in mind for my next videos!

When your elbows are positioned ahead of you, such as during preacher curls or incline curls, it tends to emphasize the short head of the biceps. This positioning places the shoulder joint in a more extended position, which puts more stretch on the short head of the biceps, thus emphasizing its activation. Conversely, when your elbows are positioned behind you, such as during incline dumbbell curls or overhead cable curls, it tends to emphasize the long head of the biceps. This positioning allows for greater activation of the long head due to increased shoulder flexion and less stretch on the short head. Ultimately, the different positioning of the elbows alters the biomechanics of the exercise, leading to varying degrees of activation in the different heads of the biceps.

@@MarcoFitser It's still wrong to call it isolation. Let's say your triceps are the limiting factor on a close grip bench press. You're still not isolating anything. Here it's even more ridiculous because the muscles cross the same joints and will both be worked fine in any exercise where your flexing the elbow under load. I doubt emphasizing either head makes that much of a difference.

In that case, “isolation” of a single muscle doesn’t exist as it is impossible to train only 1 muscle, as there will always be some supporting muscles within every exercise. My interpretation of “isolation” is exerting the maximum mechanical load on a certain muscle so that that muscle reaches failure first. When you’re doing regular curls (elbows at the side of your body), you will reach failure eventually with your biceps. But which muscle reached failure first? The long head or the short head? The answer is the weakest muscle will reach failure first. So how can we strengthen and grow the strong muscle if we can’t push it to failure? In that case we can “isolate” that muscle by putting it in a position in which it will reach failure faster than the muscle that is put under less bio-mechanical stress. So when you have your elbows in-front of you, the short head will experience the most bio-mechanical load, your long head will also experience some load, but not to the same extent as the short head. The same is applicable for “isolating” the long head.

In order to balance out the development of the two heads of the biceps, it is important to include exercises that specifically isolate the short head, rather than both of them. You’re likely to reach failure with one or the other when doing conventional curls, but not both as these muscles have different strength levels. Try doing the same weight with preacher curls as you’re doing with the incline dumbell curls. There will be one that is stronger than the other.

Don’t skip leg day: because your quads should be the only thing jiggling on you at the beach.

THIS is why your biceps aren’t GROWING

Its called brachialis and dont get it mistaken with brachioradialis. Good exercise are for example cross hammer curls

Enjoy the gains💪🏼

Normal curls are sure to result in some great gains! Though isolation definitely has more net positive effects on the individual heads. Definitely worth the try💪🏼

You got this bro💪🏼

Happy to help!

They test my discipline the most!😂

Thank you! It’s about 3 years of progress.

Thank you king!

Thank you for your awesome comment!

Wise words right there. Choose your friends carefully.

Thank you for your comment. What can I improve on?

I fully agree with you! I meant it more along the lines that your goal or destiny shouldn’t feel like a burden to complete. It takes hard work and dedication to find the right approach. If it doesn’t work out, change your approach, but never the goal. You shouldn’t ever force methods that clearly don’t work.

Thank you for your amazing comment! More content come💪🏼

Never give up!💪🏼

That’s right!

Absolute beast. Well done king!💪🏼🔥

Yeah the video was taken towards the second half of 2023. My physique was the best I’ve had then. I recently moved from South Africa to the Netherlands so my gym progress took a substantial hit with that. But ultimately consistency is key and I’m pushing to reach new highs with my physique this year!💪🏼

Thank you King💪🏼

Well done for bettering yourself and being consistent! Optimal rest is indeed very important for building muscle. I would also recommend you trying to plan in some form of progressive overload as well as this will stimulate your muscles optimally for growth, that being upping the reps or weight for each exercise. For pushups this can be achieved by wearing a weighted vest, or alternating your hand placement to target different muscles. You can also slow down the pushups (3 seconds down, 1 second pause, 3 seconds up). This will increase the time under tention and also result in more muscle gains! This can be applied to both the sit ups and squats as well. I hope this helps!
