Psalms 18:2 KJV Bible The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
First day impressions:It arrived in a waist high box. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxP26Tir6n60vUkdtn4mbwhRO8cwuJQNy2 Each dumbbell was in its own foam box within the shipping box. Everything was secure and in good shape. No weird smells. The weight changing mechanism is really smooth and straight forward. Changing weight is really fast and easy. Though the handle is plastic, I don't think it will be breaking anytime soon. So far pretty impressed after my first session with them. I was afraid they were going to be too wide at first, but I didn't have any issues with them while doing upright rows.
Best exercise for strength: heavy face pulls Best exercise for power: fast, heavy face pulls Best exercise for hypertrophy: reasonably heavy face pulls Best exercise for corrective: light face pulls Best exercise for total body: jumping face pulls Best exercise for rear delts: light face pulls

He is mesmerizing, especially since he often dispels myths that I (especially my shoulders) learned the hard way over years. Just the military press thing, how to avoid impingement. Genius.
This video make me realise that to get a good physique you don’t need fancy & expensive equipment at all! Thank you Jeff for all the attention and dedication you put in all your videos
All you really need are a set of bands and a few dumbbells for a full body workout. Of course, the wholistic approach is the best but not everyone wants to make the effort or can go to the gym or built a gym in their house with cable machine, etc. Its not a necessity.
As someone with limited access to weights or machines this video really helped me out. I was exhausted by the corrective exercise. I know you won't read this but thank you Jeff. Your guidance helped me get started with my weight training.👍
Not kidding, I was in the gym contemplating what's the best shoulder workout to grind on. I swear Athlean-X are psychics they know when you needed them
I'm not a guy that likes a lot of talk in the videos I watch but I'm always tuned in to ur content, it's like muscle nutrition for the brain. I'm an over the road truck driver with space, time, and one set of 35lb dumbells; thank u for doing this "Best Dumbbell..." series. With these videos I should be able to transition from "winging" exercises in the truck to dialing in correct movements. I worried about my workouts because I have to get up and drive 4-500 miles the next day, the lack of confidence in my exercise honestly made me curb my intensity, reps, and everything about the workout. Thanks again for the great videos, I am subbed.

BEST SHOULDER WORKOUT IVE EVER DONE! Pretty sure i wasnt supposed to do every workout in the video in one go with multiple sets but I did and ive honestly never felt this much of a pump and burn in my shoulders. They are definitely my weak point so thank you for your videos!!
I've been doing weights for yrs., im (57)... and i believe this is the one trainer and site that is the bullseye for correct results... bravo ... Thanks from Allan in Edmonton, Canada..
Jeff. I’ve been doing face pulls for a year now. Something I never did before you told me to. You called it a Corrective. Sir, you are a genius. I swear face pulls have changed me positively in a relatively short period of time. Thank you so much for all you do for us. You are The GOAT of muscle development instruction.
Thank you Jeff. My gym is small and barbells are often in high demand, but even more so having limited self-knowledge on what shoulder exercises are available also limits what I would do without your added options. I bought your max size program to see what your programs are all about in comparison to what your share for free, I feel the biggest benefit aside from the exercises you choose are the time intervals, intensity, when to rest, when to move on to different stages for growth, and the volume of sets makes for really tough and efficient workouts. I will incorporate these to your program sensibly. I have made good gains and am a safer less injured lifting enthusiast because of you. Thanks
Just a tip for you bros out there using dumbbells to avoid the problem Jeff mentions about having to jump up by 10 pnds each time you increase weight. Get yourselves a pair of 2.5 pound wrist weights (the kind you strap on with Velcro.) If you want to increase your load by 5 pnds, slap those bad boys on your wrists. It feels a little awkward at first, but this method can be used for just about any movement that requires you to hold a dumbbell in each hand. It really helps prevent the issues that come with the big jumps, especially at lower weight. Going from pressing 20 pnd to 30 pnd is a 50% increase in weight, which can be tough if you're just starting out and have weak shoulders. Now you can go from pressing 20 pnd to 25 pnd which is only a 25% increase in weight; much more manageable. Plus your grip strength isn't taxed as much when you strap 5 pnds of your load to your wrist. So often I have to tap out on an upper body dumbbell routine merely because my hands and forearms just can't handle holding the weights. I got a set of Gold's Gym wrist weights at walmart for like 12$. If you are obsessed with making progress (even tiny little bits) go get em and just keep em in your gym bag until you find yourself wishing you could increase your double dumbbell movement weight by 5 pnd.
I wanted to thank you for your free content here on You Tube. I have been training since June 23 I've used your advice and kept a regular schedule based partially on a basic workout I had in my files from ages ago. I've changed some of my exercises based on your best , better , good postings. I just turned 60 this month and I feel better since returning to weight lifting. I'm not dieting and don't consider myself a body builder but I'm getting stronger. I also follow the advice of another RUclipsr.
I second that Jeff. Sam G2 I have a forearm injury. Unfortunately it kills holding anything or pulling anything (not chin-ups strangely but pull-ups are pure pain). Lifting weights to get ready for an exercise cannot be done. Every time I try, it goes back to fully injured. Jeff, how can you fully recover from an overuse injury
@@trentmiller6131 yeah, it really sucks. Last year sometime I started dealing with pain at the elbows, I rested it for a while and came back to working out. For months now I still have a little pain, but the biggest problem is that I have this weird weakness of grip and general weakness in the extensors of the forearm.
@_iYogurtSlinger_ I went to a doctor last year and they gave me exercises and stretches so I did them and once the injury seemed better I went back to working out normally. Eventually I started to notice weakness in my grip and extension of the forearm, so now I am only doing eccentric wrist extensions in an attempt to progressively strengthen the tendon and extensor muscles of the forearm. I don't know what else to do than that. I know and trust Jeff and his content so I was just wondering if he could make a video addressing a common problem to help me and many other people get back to our normal activities.
Dude rest it... As much as it requires....whenever i hear the words tendons and ligaments i just freak out...it took me one and half year to recover from my elbow tendonitis....and yes it weakens the grip
Dude...I've been working out for all of my adult life and have to say...totally LOVE your vids!! Great explanations WITH the science and anatomy explained. THUMBS UP!!
All these dumbell videos in your series are great due to the gym closed cause of the coronavirus. I picked up several dumbells cause no way I'm taking weeks off. Thanks man!
Just going to the gym to hit shoulders today. Had to pull over and watch before I get there. Thanks Jeff! (The ONLY RUclipsr I'll pull over in the middle of the road to watch 😂).
Building my own gym! Currently I’m working out of a 12’ x 16’ shed with electricity (dug my own 40’ trench for underground wiring) - before I start : I take 2 motorcycles out. - warm up - stretch - then get to work with my Facebook marketplace plates, dumbbells and barbell I’ve acquired. I just need a squat rack, 3 position bench, more plates and dumbbells, mirror and crash pads. So I pretty much have nothing. But I’m already much happier not having a membership to any gym. 👍🏻 RUclips for tips like this is too great!
I hate fitness videos on RUclips.....Except your ones. You truly are a Dr in the field and know - What, How, Why.........Subscribed and eager for more............Thanks for sharing the knowledge, knowledge is power !!!!
Really informative, got shoulder pain but can still lift so going to try a few of these exercises. Thanks mate, all the videos I've seen of yours have taught me a lot so far.
really appreciate these barbell videos. Suffered a bad shoulder dislocation with a fracture of the humeral head. Also have nerve injuries as a result. Been using bands but I’m ready to move light 3lb barbells
@Marcelo Zapata - Actually no. I have quite a few students/athletes who are very interested in the muscular-skeletal system and how to prepare themselves for high school sports. Beats reading a textbook. As you probably know there are a lot of crappy "fitness" sites and I would rather have them go to someone who really knows his stuff. Great resource!
These videos help me so much. 5’9 202lbls. I workout in my backyard with 30lbl dumbbells, cinderblocks, barrels, and chairs. I put up 305lbls on a bench last month just testing myself, and a lot to credit to these videos that really suit my needs as well as feed my work ethic.
One of the best training videos I've watched! One of the best shoulder training videos, and valuable, very practical training advice. I mostly train at home with a pair of dumbbells that can be adjusted by adding, and removing plates, with collars. For working chest I mostly do push-ups, dips, and for the rest of my body I use dumbbells. Since I have shoulder injuries, especially my right shoulder, I use moderate poundage. I do presses, side raises, bent-over laterals, but lately became aware that even with wide grip upright rows are still not safe enough on the Internet, mostly on RUclips. Therefore, I am going back to performing side raises. Furthermore, I like to share a tip about pressing a weight overhead, to anybody out there; the elbows are to be pointed slightly forward at the beginning of most overhead presses. This approach to overhead pressing could prevent further shoulder injuries.
Thank you Jeff I watch you videos when I’m on my elliptical and try out some of the exercises right after it huge benefit to my training at 58 I have been training fo over forty years now that I’m retired I’m back with force and loving the videos and tips
Man! why didn't I find your videos when I started working out a year and a half ago? I could have made even bigger gains if I'd applied these insider secrets.
California Dreaming so you’re telling me you have dumbbells at home and still pay like $30 a month for access to dumbbells at your gym?? Sounds stupid to me
I drive big rigs. Can't carry a full gym, and a little hard to get near a gym. Dumbbells are a big part of what I do out on the road. Got a few more ideas here.
@@jcmclint The wrist position, starting point (to ensure greater ROM for the biceps), and that it is unsupported by an incline bench are all different. That being said, they are very similar exercises. I think the Urlacher is a little bit better though as it involves greater trunk stability and works the biceps a little more through their entire ROM!
Been stuck with spinlock dumbbells at home now. Learned that increasing your reps is a good way to overcome the bigger increments that dumbbells limit you to. Had better progress stuck at home than what I got at the gym.
I took the most popular shoulder exercises and ranked them from best to worst. I'll show you what exercises are must-haves in your programming and which ones you should be skipping altogether. Check out where your favorite exercise is ranked here => ruclips.net/video/tZafawk3arc/видео.html

I was just wondering how to do more shoulder workouts and bam Jeff posts
Was doing shoulders today and thought the same thing
Wow, this is one absolutely AWESOME look at shoulder training!
Could you please do a video on how to fully recover from an overuse injury?
I second that Jeff. Sam G2 I have a forearm injury. Unfortunately it kills holding anything or pulling anything (not chin-ups strangely but pull-ups are pure pain). Lifting weights to get ready for an exercise cannot be done. Every time I try, it goes back to fully injured. Jeff, how can you fully recover from an overuse injury
@@trentmiller6131 it's overtrained just take some time off
@@trentmiller6131 yeah, it really sucks. Last year sometime I started dealing with pain at the elbows, I rested it for a while and came back to working out. For months now I still have a little pain, but the biggest problem is that I have this weird weakness of grip and general weakness in the extensors of the forearm.
@_iYogurtSlinger_ I went to a doctor last year and they gave me exercises and stretches so I did them and once the injury seemed better I went back to working out normally. Eventually I started to notice weakness in my grip and extension of the forearm, so now I am only doing eccentric wrist extensions in an attempt to progressively strengthen the tendon and extensor muscles of the forearm. I don't know what else to do than that. I know and trust Jeff and his content so I was just wondering if he could make a video addressing a common problem to help me and many other people get back to our normal activities.
Dude rest it... As much as it requires....whenever i hear the words tendons and ligaments i just freak out...it took me one and half year to recover from my elbow tendonitis....and yes it weakens the grip
Dude...I've been working out for all of my adult life and have to say...totally LOVE your vids!! Great explanations WITH the science and anatomy explained. THUMBS UP!!
You and Scott Herman are really the only two fitness channels I trust. You both seem really genuine and like you care about the viewers!
Try Jeff nippard ,he's gud
Try Jeff nippard,he's gud too
All these dumbell videos in your series are great due to the gym closed cause of the coronavirus. I picked up several dumbells cause no way I'm taking weeks off. Thanks man!
Just going to the gym to hit shoulders today. Had to pull over and watch before I get there. Thanks Jeff! (The ONLY RUclipsr I'll pull over in the middle of the road to watch 😂).
😂😂
I'm hoping you pull over to the side of the road 😮
@@UnknownUnknown-tu3be Nope. I just stop dead center in the middle of the road.

Building my own gym!
Currently I’m working out of a 12’ x 16’ shed with electricity (dug my own 40’ trench for underground wiring) - before I start : I take 2 motorcycles out. - warm up - stretch - then get to work with my Facebook marketplace plates, dumbbells and barbell I’ve acquired. I just need a squat rack, 3 position bench, more plates and dumbbells, mirror and crash pads. So I pretty much have nothing. But I’m already much happier not having a membership to any gym. 👍🏻 RUclips for tips like this is too great!
I can't believe he just gives this shit away for free. This is gold.
This best channel in RUclips about body and Gym,Thanks
I hate fitness videos on RUclips.....Except your ones. You truly are a Dr in the field and know - What, How, Why.........Subscribed and eager for more............Thanks for sharing the knowledge, knowledge is power !!!!
Really informative, got shoulder pain but can still lift so going to try a few of these exercises. Thanks mate, all the videos I've seen of yours have taught me a lot so far.
Just on time for shoulder day! Thanks Jeff 💯💪🏽
Wez Fitness right bro 😂
really appreciate these barbell videos. Suffered a bad shoulder dislocation with a fracture of the humeral head. Also have nerve injuries as a result. Been using bands but I’m ready to move light 3lb barbells
I need to watch this a second time, and TAKE NOTES.
I make gifs out of each exercise
@@lMobiuscidl You mind if I give you my number real quick and you send me those? wink wink
That's a good idea - taking notes. Then take those notes with you when you exercise.
Just liked this comment with the pen in my hand and notepad on my lap lol
I suffer from lower back pain during my dumbbell shoulder press(standing) especially during the last reps, Any Solutions?
New sub here! After healing from a recent injury, I’ve been following your videos and already seeing and feeling results following your tips! Thanks.
Athelean X workouts videos definitely helps alot! It motivates especially if you wanna to set up & target a new workout challenge.

Pff Ahahahahahah this was great thanks lad
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😁
Muscle wizards.
Just promoted Athlean- X to my 8th grade PE class. Great resource.
@Marcelo Zapata - Actually no. I have quite a few students/athletes who are very interested in the muscular-skeletal system and how to prepare themselves for high school sports. Beats reading a textbook. As you probably know there are a lot of crappy "fitness" sites and I would rather have them go to someone who really knows his stuff. Great resource!
Dumbbell versions for the whole body are enormously helpful, thanks so much.
Jeff's back is awesome. Goals.
Thank you for including the drop-set - I love them and yours is really creative. And that “corrective” is fantastic - thank you!
These videos help me so much. 5’9 202lbls. I workout in my backyard with 30lbl dumbbells, cinderblocks, barrels, and chairs. I put up 305lbls on a bench last month just testing myself, and a lot to credit to these videos that really suit my needs as well as feed my work ethic.
One of the best shoulder workouts ever.. Never got a pump like this before 👌👌 Great advise, appreciate it 👍
good vid as usual, but how do i make my shoulders green like your thumbnail?
Yea the only way is gamma radiation

And get angry. But don't wear your favorite pants.
One of the best training videos I've watched! One of the best shoulder training videos, and valuable, very practical training advice. I mostly train at home with a pair of dumbbells that can be adjusted by adding, and removing plates, with collars. For working chest I mostly do push-ups, dips, and for the rest of my body I use dumbbells. Since I have shoulder injuries, especially my right shoulder, I use moderate poundage. I do presses, side raises, bent-over laterals, but lately became aware that even with wide grip upright rows are still not safe enough on the Internet, mostly on RUclips.
Therefore, I am going back to performing side raises. Furthermore, I like to share a tip about pressing a weight overhead, to anybody out there; the elbows are to be pointed slightly forward at the beginning of most overhead presses. This approach to overhead pressing could prevent further shoulder injuries.
10:02 Even Jeffs back has a 6-pack 😂
Who’s down for a workout consisting of planks, upright rows, leg extensions, and chest flies.
@@joshbeck1456 planks don't do much??
Then you are not doing them correctly.
I am!!! but i also want behind the head press and lat pull down!!!
Lol, yeah i will, but i'll just watch just to make sure your doing them right or wrong. Teeheehee!....
Whats wrong with planks buddy?
People will die...Bernie sanders
thank you so much Jeff. you never really know how many you actually help out.
9:57 when Mr.Cavalier's chest is so enormous that it ended up being a mat for his 'on the floor shoulder routine'
Hey Jeff do you think you could do a video explaining or debunking the 1000 pushups/situps/squats a day routine?
This would be interesting.
1000 pushups?!
That's gotta be horrible for your elbows/wrists
Id do a 1000 in total but each nopeee
Just dont
P.S : m not kiddin
Why? That's not a bad workout.
Just finishing my rear delts can feel it big time I have Bowflex select 552 adjustable dumbbells love it no more wasting time loading or unloading
Thanks Jeff, did this shoulder routine today, you can see my picture for the results. (I weighed 135 yesterday)
You're a gamer.
@@SirLoLo and XD
loving the metabolic sets. did the metabolic shoulder exercise for the first time and now i can barely lift my arms up
Thank you Jeff I watch you videos when I’m on my elliptical and try out some of the exercises right after it huge benefit to my training at 58 I have been training fo over forty years now that I’m retired I’m back with force and loving the videos and tips
Lol, u can see the skeleton in the mirror. Probably the cameraman for this video
🤯
Jessy isn't that skinny@@gurungsatish7168
Hahaha😂😂 you are right😁
Be nice to Jessy!
That's funny
One of these days I’ll get the 30 day workout program that only the lucky 100 can get.
I've only got access to some dumbbells at home, and this was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much!!!
Man! why didn't I find your videos when I started working out a year and a half ago? I could have made even bigger gains if I'd applied these insider secrets.
Thanks man. I'm in Barrow, Alaska on a contract job and the gym has only dumbbells.
Are you in the electrical field?
Honestly, this may be the best video you've done. Great information and illustration.
This was great. This video was straight up gold.
Who else is here because their gym is closed
Lol yup
yep
JaySee that wouldn’t help because most people don’t even have dumbbells at home
Good job I workout at home
California Dreaming so you’re telling me you have dumbbells at home and still pay like $30 a month for access to dumbbells at your gym?? Sounds stupid to me
I'm in a wheelchair and have watched many videos but I really like ypurs!
The burn from the metabolic stress workouts is so damn good.
I drive big rigs. Can't carry a full gym, and a little hard to get near a gym. Dumbbells are a big part of what I do out on the road. Got a few more ideas here.
The urlacher is a great exercise! Not too many people I see doing it tho
‘not too many people I see doing it tho’
What is it
I've never even heard about it before doing the Train like Bane program. Love it
What makes it different from a W raise? Generally curious, since it looks similar. I see the wrist position is different.
@@jcmclint The wrist position, starting point (to ensure greater ROM for the biceps), and that it is unsupported by an incline bench are all different.
That being said, they are very similar exercises. I think the Urlacher is a little bit better though as it involves greater trunk stability and works the biceps a little more through their entire ROM!
"Kill a few birds with one stone" - Jeff the legend
Lord I that saying is so old it’s not even funny
Chris Jackson the saying is “kill two birds with one stone” he changed up and said kill multiple
Jeff can kill 2 birds with another bird.
@kewltony Jeff can kill one stone with the same stone.

Been stuck with spinlock dumbbells at home now. Learned that increasing your reps is a good way to overcome the bigger increments that dumbbells limit you to. Had better progress stuck at home than what I got at the gym.
