When making this video I had to narrow the list down from about 15 things to just 7 lol. Maybe I'll have to do a part 2 for this one. What are some things you wish you knew when you started lifting?
Hitting the chest on bench press is necessary only if you're competing. Ask any physiotherapist (ie. ATHLEAN X) what hitting your chest repeatedly does to your shoulder joint over time.
I think how to establish the mind muscle connection could be one of them
Don’t train too hard...
CL Anthony not touching your chest is how you tear a pec
thinking more time and days on the gym=more gains
"Don't let others influence your training so easily"
Alright sounds good, * clicks off video *

So you got influenced then…

@@SeboHyatt Yeah but puberty,it exists
Yes. This is what the right genetics and hormone release looks like. Jeff was born to be muscular/athletic.
I like how this guy doesn't give off this 'douchebag' vibe so many guys with his physique do. He just seems like a genuine, secure man.
he’s just a normal person..

Thanks you for saving my time
When I saw someone smaller or younger than me moving more weight I just told myself don’t compare your chapter 1 to someone else’s chapter 20
If they're younger then your chapter 20 and he's chapter 1 😂
Sajid Couldn’t have said it better myself
Sajid not true, what if he’s only just started lifting and they’ve been lifting since a young age?? dumb comment
@@vincestaples52 Twas nothing but a joke
another thing to consider is that not everyone builds big muscles. both a blessing and a curse, but i'm one of those people. my lifting capacity keeps going up, but i barely notice it in my size.
Happy to be influenced by you bro. I’ve learned so much about all of this stuff in the last 3 months of getting back at it!
15 year old Jeff was shredded
Rob Donaldson That’s 7 year old Jeff. 😱
THe ADHD Turnip you mean 7 month old Jeff
Rob Donaldson thats jeff straight out of the womb idk what yall talking about

Still prolly the same height 😂😂
Bro Jeff is my 13 year goal. You can't convince me to work towards anything else.
Add calisthenics along with it ;) Good luck

Steroids just get cheaper and cheaper online. Its very attainable if you want to fuck up your hormones and glands.
Adrian Flo i will never take steroid It shortens your life style because its boosts growth hormones thats why all budybuilders are like 20 looking 40
@@attractive6607 You dont even know the difference between SARMS, testosterone and growth hormone. You might want to read some articles before you say stupid things in youtube comments.
And i never asked weather you wanted to take steroids or not. Nut sure why you are telling me.
One of the biggest mistakes I made early on was that I set such an unrealistic goal for myself. I'm an avid rock climber and I'm pretty lean only about 130 lbs and about 5'8 tall. I wanted to gain 20-25 lbs of muscle and I tried to just eat as much as I could and workout super hard. But, about 2 years later I'm still 130.Eventually I wised up and realized that a true goal is to just focus on healthy progress and to focus on exercises and diet that work for me. (obviously my exercises mainly pertain to improve my rock climbing ability although I do mix in some antagonist muscle exercises to stay balanced). And since changing my focus, I've learned that I'm actually getting better and stronger and not just bigger. Another huge benefit to my change of focus was that now, I actually feel confident in my physique and I don't judge myself as hard for not being able to put on weight.
if you worked out for 2 years and actually are a ton and didn't gain a single pound of muscle then you may not have been eating as much/training as hard as you thought you were.
Jeff ngl you are a statue of muscle. great to see/hear these videos. Its from you that Ive started training my calves extra on mid week off days and increasing my resistance to 15 on the eliptiical (out of 20) so my legs are constantly getting that weekly load as opposed to once a week. I've also stopped over training my front delts. and made sure to get full extended range of motion from my biceps and triceps. Bench has gone up significantly form the tricep development
1) Pigging-out on junk food is terrible, especially compared to simply learning to love healthy foods.
2) Learning to cook is far better than relying on most supplements, for financial and nutritional reasons.
3) I get only benefits from cardio, with no noticable trade-offs.
4) Even a little exercise is far better than none at all.
4) Lateral Raises are best done with light weight and with the form demonstrated by Jeff Cavaliere.
5) Don't neglect legs or low-back. Exercise can help the joints here, despite the false alarms I heard from older lifters who didn't understand proper form.
6) The overall psychological benefits to fitness and health are most important for me.
7) SLEEP is the most important "nutrient" AND "exercise".
8) Related to the previous two things, stress-management is a core dynamic in the interplay between muscle growth and psychological fitness.
9) Kiwis, blueberries, blackberries, avocados, tofu and salmon are some of my best friends.
10) Eat oatmeal regularly, because fiber's extremely important.
11) Fish Oil, Creatine and Whey/Soy are worth the investment.
12) Have a more measured appreciation of caffeine, avoiding extremes of high doses or pure abstinence, and instead taking regular breaks for re-sensitization.
In regard to #12 - Can you elaborate on “taking regular breaks for re-sensitization” - what is regular breaks for you? I think Jeff posted 2 months on/7 days off.
@@Phoenix335i I like to take at least one month off about three times a year. I'm sure there's plenty of variation for people when it comes to what's best for them, though.
Actually really good tips dude. 😂 pretty much every beginner should utilize this
Why are fibers so important? I seriously don’t know.
@@ok-kk3ic Fiber helps with digestion, which is important if you're eating enough to put on muscle. Most Americans, especially men, don't even get enough fiber to support a normal life style, let alone an athletic one.
8. Get advice from people named Jeff.
9. Do not get advice from people named Vince.
LOL i see :D
Jeff cavalier
Vince g?
Vince delmonte 😂
this works on Soo many levels
I cannot say how impressed I am, as a science teacher, how well sourced your thought patterns appear to be. Keep up the good work!
Excellent job Jeff. You are very well-spoken and credible. I'm 53 and have been lifting for 4 years, and there was plenty for me to learn in this short and succinct video. Thanks Jeff!
Got it, so don't do and follow everything that your favorite influencer does
*Proceeds to do and follow everything Jeff does* 😂
😂😂😂😂
I love Jeff, but there are a few things he does that don't work as well for me. :) Thankfully, he offers lots of alternatives in his programs!
he didnt mean NOT follow, he only meant DON'T expect you will get the SAME results EVEN if you follow EVERYTHING they do.
Goofy Juice I observe his form for my fav exercises, but I don’t copy the entire routine in his videos
Can't go wrong with following Jeffs. Just be sure to never follow a Vince.
I always self experiment in my training, that's why my right forearm is so beefy.
u are a god
Shit stop using your right hand that much or you get blind really fast
Thats weird!
my right penis is larger then my left one tho.
Eng. Ahmed Mohamed Osman and hair grows on your palm too and everyone will know
How are you able to self experiment with callouses?
I would add 'sleep well' to that tweet.
So, I'm late to your vids, but wanted to say - I'm SO glad you include good, published, scholarly research. It's so important and encouraging that more and more people are using research to back their ideas. Thank you for being one of those people.
Rumor has it that Jeff has been lifting since he came out the womb
He was doing Face pulls with the umbilical cord
Believable tbh
Daniel Lewis I agree with that statement
@@JohnBradydoesstuff Nature AND nurture! What a bastard, heh.
Some say he was born with a needle up his ass
As a scientist and amateur bodybuilder, I really appreciate all you do ...I've been watching you for a couple of years now and can always rely on honest, well researched information ....big up Jeff and thanks for all your effort on this channel
From experience as a person on the teller and the tellie, i've learned that we usually do not listen to advises. We usually do what we think is best for us. Then we learn what's right. And the after a shoulder injury or so we think back and say "ooooh so this is what that guy was telling me about."
I respect the hell out of this mans professionalism, and ability to simplify the process of going to the gym.
I bet Jeff takes showers with that Rise belt around his waist
Trey2Da lmao
Some people actually have that problem so don't make fun dude
I bet he wears it for other things as well 😏
Teague jelinek some from improper lifting, others with natural health problems, and then the idiots who always wear them and don’t work core or back. You really only need a belt when you’re in your 85%^ range (most people)
Teague stop being a pussy
Damn, young Jeff was beefy af💪🏼💪🏼
Yeah, baby Jeff was jacked too. LOL.
Yeah bro I thought I had alright genetics but I was a twig compared to that lol
caydonfit Jeff looks bigger before he started than how most people end up after 10 years. Ridiculous.
Yeah, he had big Chest and arms
Hes a midget peep his voice shorter guys can easily fill out more
Perhaps the most concise, easy to understand and ‘to the point’ training video yet posted on RUclips.
I started lifting for real about 3 years ago, when I was 53. I've always lifted a little, to compliment martial arts training, but now weight lifting is 90% of what I do. I was lucky enough to do most things right because my sons researched it all on RUclips/Internet, one of their sources being you. So now I look better than I've done in many years, I have zero injuries, I am certainly a lot stronger than I've ever been and I am still progressing well. I think people like you and Jeff (AthleanX) are a blessing to people with good intentions but little knowledge like me. So thank you for all you are doing.
I think most teens just lose sight of what’s fundamental
Getting stronger
Proper Calories
Enough protein
High intensity and proper volume
Sleep an hydration
Many skinny teens make the mistake of eating the same as they did before with the addition of some supplements thinking they'll get big. To get big first you need to eat big.
@@SM-ly5tf caloric surplus is important but too much food will just give you more fat
@@AllthatremainsMV "Proper Calories"

@@meurer13daniel nobody likes a smart ass
Really great video, Jeff. Thanks so much for the always awesome content. These concepts are not all that complicated, but the information and graphics overload I get from social media can lead me astray sometimes and make me forget the fundamentals. This is a good reminder of the basics that need to be your foundation every day in the gym, in the kitchen, in the bathroom mirror, etc.
Most balanced and sound advice for beginners, intermediates and some pros I've seen in a long time.
What a fantastic video. A knowledgeable and articulate young fella with some first class advice and explanations. Will definitely be watching more - thanks
one thing I wish I knew when I started lifting : Jeff Nippard's youtube channel. Great content. Always. Cheers
Being unable to progressively overload thanks to injuries and eating too little in contrast to the amount of training I've been doing, I can only hope that early starters watch this and take it seriously. Jeff, you're the man, man.
/Alex
Alexander Nilsson Same. Hip and shoulder injury. 6 month break already chasing recovery
@@RemcoBravenboer Then we're on the same journey, and discipline and patience are what we must practice. But damn, is that easier said than done!
Alexander Nilsson Yeah man. I am finally able to squat and deadlift pain free again. Whenever I increase those lifts and gain back strength this will help my shoulders as well. Good luck on your recovery!
@@RemcoBravenboer I'm glad to hear! Personally, I'm scared to go back after falling down the same pit over and over again. Thanks, I'll need it :)! Wish you the best of luck too!
Word. I've lost so much progress from ego lifting and the subsequent disc, hip, knee and shoulder injuries, and then spending lots of time on rehab. Yet it took many injuries before I finally leaned my lesson. That being said, if I had never been injured I wouldn't have spent nearly as much time researching the importance of mobility, addressing weak glutes and core and just bio-mechanics in general so there was something to be gained from being reckless I guess lol.
Love that knee / leg alternating position/s for the incline one arm db curl. I *retired* from competitive bodybuilding in 1988 & that's new to me. Thank Hades I am, as ever, "twice the student I am the teacher"
I’m 8 months into my journey, I used to be such a scrawny dude. With the right diet, sleep pattern and workouts I’ve seen huge gains and am still on the rise. It’s helped immensely with my physical and mental health. Like I’ve been reborn. Thanks for the great tips Jeff.
I missed your video’s Jeff, I really love your in depth vid’s! There isn’t no channel like yours🙏🏽
When I started I thought I was doing good because I was doing loads of research but in reality it just confused me and made me waste time. Now I keep it simple and it works much better for me. Thanks for the video Jeff as always, very informative :)
Hart Fitness Same here! Now I have my own realistic perspective and confident enough about it not to get swung by those ever again..
@@user-cm2ky4uh9y Yea exactly it can help but got to work out what works for you in the end
I am 16 and I always had thought that I have the knowledge to workout by my own and make my own plan and diet as I watched videos of Jeff, Greg doucette, athlean-X etc, but after the cut I performed succeeding my first bulk, my weight reduced to a crazy level. Turns out my caloric deficit was so damn low, like I was eating 1400 calories per day. It really made me feel depressed and broken. Right now I am trying to count my calories strictly, watch my weight daily (the biggest mistake I did was not watching my weight at all) and not go by my feelings. I hope everything goes alright. My dad was a lifter in his old days and he used to give one these "oldy-bro" advises and was against my cutting diet, I often rediculed him but now karma hit me baaad. Hope my lean bulking plan pays off.
Yep I just get confused by it all, so I started 5x5 3 weeks ago, it seems like a simple place to start for me as a beginner
eat well do simple workouts
Just found your channel, love you you explain everything. Will definitely keep watching!
love this guy's video's he seems so genuine & down to earth. great tips
Beyond anything else, learn to activate the muscle before you hit it with weight. Mind muscle connection
Yup, goes the same with the ladies. Activate the muscle and mind then connect.
Underrated piece of advice.
And what does that mean in newbie language?
It simply means to learn what muscle you want to activate. Then teach your body the proper way to execute the movement before even thinking about adding weight
@@JamesFralic okay thanks
He was Buff even before he started lifting, RIP Me.... 25 and still a bare bones guy...
Rajiv Reddy being 5”3 has its advantages
Eat more, you'll transform within months
@@dannyf5595 Being 6' 2" has it's disadvantages I guess... also yeah, I eat very little...
@@RemcoBravenboer I absolutely love the eating more part. It's like a reward for training so hard in the gym.
Alfonzo Russ Exactly, and if you don't gain just add some extra peanut butter sandwiches or hamburgers and you'll gain weight in no time
I've been lifting for 5 years and these are all things I need to hear regularly
Restarting and taking things more seriously. Caught back up to where I was last time in my prime. Sounds weak but I finally got strong enough with good enough form to put a 45 plate on each side of the barbell and pushed out 3 reps after doing 10 reps of 65 (warm up) and 11 reps of 115. Very happy that my calculated 1 rep max is back up to ~150. Now looking to push further and beat my previous record. PUMP ON PEOPLE
What do you mean sounds weak? I started with just the bar and then 10lbs...some of us were weak AF when starting out lol
As a young lifter myself (just turned 16) I'd like to thank you, Jeff.
Because of your videos I've progressed in my training loads.
How’s it going?
@@Vainglory100 hey, bro, nice of you to ask. It's actually pretty great, I've gained about 50lbs since that comment, my strength is getting up there. A few snags here and there but overall, good. How are you?
@@garintj1547 jesus 50 lbs thats amazing. I’m a new lifter I’ve only been going for a week or so and I haven’t seen much gains yet but I’m still pushing
@@Vainglory100 thanks, bro. Granted, not all of it is muscle, I've gained a reasonable amount of fat but I can't complain. Honestly, my friend, its the best thing you'll ever do for yourself. You'll change so much (for the best) as a person. I wish you the best and if you have any questions at all, just fire away.
@@garintj1547 Lucky you. I didn't do compound exersices and thus my strength has remained the same for a year
Young Jeff looks like he defeated all the members of NSYNC in mortal kombat and assimilated their essence.
Beautiful camera shots and your voice sounds really clear. Editing is great too. Good job man! And of course, solid and honest advice.
I REALLY enjoy your videos. The amount of knowledge that you possess and give to us so freely is exemplary. I wish more people with knowledge like yours would share it. I think that’s part of the issue of getting into shape; most people just don’t know how and gym class in high school didn’t really focus on the fundamentals or the why’s and the how’s. If EDUCATION had been a bigger part of high school physical training, I feel like people would have a better understanding of their bodies, how to fuel them appropriately and how to succeed. MACROS and how to calculate them would have been a GAME CHANGER for a lot
of us. It’d be like learning a second language. It would just be a PART of you. Thank you for your videos, your content and your charm. 👍

REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO, THANKS BRO, 61 AND JUST STARTED ELEVATING MY WEIGHT WORKOUTS. LOVE IT
Congratulations on your video! Great tips. You're great, Jeff!
I’ve done the ego lift in front of my friends. I was in our high school gym and was weighing 140. It was all my wrestling team mates and I went all the way up to 245 with good form but broke my form at 250 and went up to 315 with my back looking like a full blown C on the lift. Had bad form on my dead’s ever since and just started fixing it once I got in the army
I think the most important thing is finding the workout routine you really like. For me its a full body workout 2-3 times a week and going for a run 1-2 times a week with 1 day break. And playing football on the weekends.
And if you can't excite yourself for anything there is a saying that you have to do things for a constant period until it becomes part of your life.
At the beginning you will be motivated, after 2-3 Months you will probably loose your motivation. But if you keep your workout routine throught this period you will eventually integrate it into your lifestyle and cant live without it.
I remember coming across this exact video when I was starting my fitness journey. It helped a lot. Thanks.
amazing video, congratulation. It's very hard to find someone as professional as you are
I wish I knew about Bro Jeff when I started lifting, would've helped me realise I was him

If I could tell my past self just one thing: Minding your build and building your mind can be synergistically related.
In college, I made the costly mistake of concentrating too much on my studies while neglecting my health, and that ended up really hurting my academic performance.
Great “coaching “ video! Thanks Jeff.
This was great for me. I started en January, after months of focusing on losing fat. I've lost 20 kg and now put on a little bit of mass, my wife started complimenting me now on my progress, it's great. Thank you for these videos
damn, your twitter is followed by mrbeast
I think one of the best things a newbie lifter can do, is be eager to learn. I literally googled every single thing I did or ate when I started out, and it opened up room for so much progress. It's the #1 tip I give new people in the gym!
Solid video man, cool to see your insight on the newbie years!
Hey Jeff I have to say again I've been a RUclipsr for about six years and I'm not really huge on following a lot of people but I recently found your Channel and I can literally not say enough for the way you teach talk articulate your words and you're not a douchebag and that's a really huge thing in the fitness industry so I'd like to say one thousand times over thank you so much I have liked subscribed and clicked the notification I've only watched about five of your videos so far but I've watched them in their entirety and there was not a single thing that I disagreed with or did not like thank you for your knowledge base material and your continued commitment to the fitness industry have a great day I wish you the best of luck keep it up
most transparent RUclipsr I have come across. Keep up the good work brother.
Dang, saw the screen caption and thought this video was going to contain hairstyle tips! Still great advice 😉 as always.

Keep it up bro ! You still have plenty of surprise that your body will provide to you !
You mean testicular atrophy?
Glad I subscribed. Dude seems to know his shit. Respect.
Great vid. I've started in the gym recently after losing a year to crippling illness which serves only as a drive now. One trick I do is to not watch grass grow. I.e, I took a start point photo of myself and then covered up. I avoid looking at myself, never take my shirt off near a mirror etc. After a few months. I'll take another phot and compare then. But until then, stay covered up and focus on technique
The first picture is 10x more muscular than me
I know, right?!?! I've been lifting 30 years and like to think I look better than his 15 year old picture. But I dont look that much better. Lol. God clearly wanted Jeff to be built.
He tinkers around with his pictures. He did it for the before and after neck training video. He made his before look thinner and his after look bigger. Look at his neck now, it's still pretty skinny.
@@shearer567 I think he backed off neck training lately,and losing neck size is pretty easy. Look at alphadestiny,had a massive neck before he stopped training it
He was probably an athlete in school. Just because he wasn't a weightlifter before hand doesn't mean he didn't workout.
I have girl arms.
Great interpretation of “genetics matter”
Thanks Jeff, this video is super concise and an important reminder of the basics!
Im 15 now.. im going on your journey now, thanks for the great content. Helps me allot!
#4 I became a lot more consistent when I started using strength progress as a motivator instead of trying to see if my physique was improving.
I didn't even do compound movements for a year and today I just started doing bench and deadlift
This is why I like to get injured from time to time, so I can get those newbie gains again. LOL

About a year but the majority probably comes in the first 6 months or so.

Started my body building journey 3weeks ago. I want to learn more about human body your videos are really helpful ,love your work using scientic study. thanks from india🇮🇳
Kv Sreejesh just keep going lmao and care ur nutrition
my advice is do a upper lower body workout 2x a week. do chest back and shoulder press and on legs do squats and lunges as they build the legs fast. but the main thing is to read what rep range to go through. and most importantly you only need a few sets per body part and you will get big by not overtraining.
I am too from India and right now on bulking
Anish Ron good luck lol I'm shit with my nutrition still gotta work on my nutrition
@@Ashish-er4kz all the best bro
Jeff kinda covers this with point 7, but I've always wondered if each muscle has a limit for newbie gains, or is it just your overall body. So if I didn't train shoulders for the first 12 months due to injury, would all my newbie gains have been used on my other muscles or would I be able to grow my shoulders really quickly (like a newbie) when I started to train them?
A year later and this video still is one of the best videos I've seen on weight lifting.
Good job Jeff! Thank you ! Im getting back into the gym after a long time of neglect and 2 kids.

Yo Jeff one thing I’ve been wondering is how do you know when to start focusing on a particular muscle group over another?
I’ve been training for years now and I’m at a point where I wonder “should my chest be bigger? Shoulders wider? Biceps larger?”
How do you pick and choose the spots to hit to get a balanced physique?
Or does it all come down to personal preference?
Like when do you know a muscle/the size is plenty for your particular frame?

10 things I wish I knew when I started lifting.
Jeff: started lifting when 4 months old
I have crappy genetics but that hasn't stopped me for lifting for the past 5 years
Ive been following many fitnes/bb channels, you and jeremy are the best by far
RUclips videos are always awesome very scientific and informative. Really love the explanation about individual differences
“It’s common for guys to only hit chest and arms” 8:35
says the guy only showing chest and arm workouts throughout the vid.
Banned From Existance and back abd shoulders
He did rows and over head shoulder press
Well he did prove his point in this way..
It's called chest and arms day
3:07 - looks like a back exercise to me.
Jeff was more jacked in 8th grade than I am now.
Thank you! 🙏🏼 I learned something new & I will keep it in mind
Really great video. Thanks buddy.
