Juji can you help me get in shape? I ve been working at home since covid hit and haven’t been in shape since i left high school, i live in Charlotte Nc near fort mill Sc im 23 and work a corporate job at a desk all day would love to hear from you guys

@@NickTheSickDick There's different things that are "unhealthy". Stuffing a sock in your clothes is like 1 in a scale of 1-1000. Now doing thay synthol or plastic surgery shit to make you look like a clown, that's unhealthy. I'd say a 950 in a scale of 1-1000.

@@Gumball089 I'm one of those people. My chest is very small compared to my shoulders, and I've only benched 230 once in my life. That's after more than 10 years of lifting.

@@oftankoftan No doubt it's a good exercise for the majority, I think. Im a little bit like you, are you by eany chance also a lot stronger with a neutral to close grip?
Their is no denying juji had a great body even before lifting man is definitely very blessed when it come to genetics on top of that people don’t take into account the fact he has been working out for nearly 2 decades now
I get told the same thing with me being nearly 40 and am still in a size where I can shop in the kid's clothing section, because they fit and are cheaper, and being 5'8" on top of it. I've been genuinely active since I was a kid. From sports, skateboarding, rollerblading and rising my bicycle with the family to the park. As a teen I was working on farm, horseback riding, walking 4 miles total daily to and from my friend's house and working as a clean up crew on a construction site. Older now and still have an active job where I'm walking on average 5 miles a day then still hit the treadmill for a casual 30 minute walk on full incline 'after' work. My days off I'm still walking, doing various Tabata workouts and Zumba and lifting weights. I get the envy comments, but I wasn't born this way. Just stayed active.
@@christins.1481 what you're doing isn't meant to increase your anything at any sport just be healthier, only farm work was hard but it doesn't increase muscle
@@Adiadi-uj3ud Hence why I stated "genuinely active". The concept boils down to people saying you're so lucky to have such good genes. Not exactly. If genes was 100% that fact, then we all would stay fit and in shape without the work. Staying active continuously is your base key. Everything else comes with pushing passed your boundaries. Going hardcore also doesn't mean how much you can run per day or lift. Going hardcore is how many years you can keep doing it. Juji is hardcore simply for the fact he's been doing this straight for 20 years.
When Juju was sitting on the chest press, his bandana, hair, beard, physique and wrist guards completely reminded me of the late, great Randy Macho Man Savage.
loving the positivity approach. arrived through soul searching at the same attitude as juji, just wish I had done so earlier in life too (especially with tricks)
I wanted to ask or is assumed most folks know he is taking ped's. No question he puts in the work, but genetics do not play into the gains we are seeing today. It would be cool if he talked openly about his journey of when he started taking these drugs to help him realize his goals.
Juji, tom, I can't thank you enough for this video. I saw it less then a week ago, and my chest is already changing due to your explanation of how the chest works. 10 years of never really feeling my chest and always feeling awkward trying to bench to no avail. Can't thank you enough guys
I don't have equipment minus a bench (no rack) and some dumbells + a doorway pullup bar. I've been doing pushups / incline pushups, as well as dumbell flys. I do dips as well, but always thought those were mostly just triceps. Today years old when I learned about hex press, so I'm gonna try those now. What bodyweight exercises for chest do you do? (Just seeing if you can get good results from just pushups or if there are some other bodyweight exercises I've been missing out on for chest.)
He don't have particular weakness His shoulders are huge his forearms are bigger than most people's biceps which makes his chest and teiceps look small
I don't often comment on videos. However, I wanted to just state that since starting to watch you guys (which I started back on a food prep video by Juji) I have started to really take my personal workouts a lot more seriously. I still have a ton to learn, but I have been taking small tips from your videos and applying them to the way that I work out. So thank you! Can't wait to check out the documentary!
Love the content and can't wait for the docu! Did a lot of Starting Stength (stayed on it for 6 months) then Bill Star 5x5 until I got a 335x5 squat, then did a 6 month cycle with JTS, but swapped to a John Meadows or RP style workout recently and LOVE IT. No more sore joints and worn out tendons and getting actual mind muscle connection
Highly doubt it until juji has finished competing. You dont find a lot of active bodybuilders discussing it while providing proof to organisations that they are not on anything. I think there will be stuff as soon as juji finishes competing.
I have hollow chest and so there is literally a hole in my chest that keeps me from connecting my pecks. It also greatly reduces my chest strength and basically pushes all the muscle to the sides of my chest. There are guys in half my shape that can bench double what I can. So yeh, feelsbadman.
I had small calves my whole life, and finally got big calves from two things, a bodybuilding.com youtube video that I cant find anymore, and mountain biking. The gist of the video was that whenever doing calf raises, focus on hypertrophy and do 8-12 reps each of toes in, toes out, and toes straight. Making sure to stretch your calves constantly before, after, and during each set.
Even as a powerlifter who couldn't care less about muscle mass, this is still incredibly important and usefull. These build size and give a lot of stability. Hit a ceiling with squats until I found out my calves just couldn't bare the weight. Calf raises helped ALOT.
I have pretty good calf genetics, but got them especially chiseled by playing tennis competitively (which had the downside of making my right arm noticeably bigger than my left even years after I stopped competing, especially in the forearm). And also mountain biking like you, that's a really good one.
@@mirkomarjanovic3234 this. I started working on my calves (posterior and anterior) and my squat blew up. Your anterior tibialis is responsible for keep your knees straight and in line. Having them weak is why a lot of peoples knees cave in/out during the squat. Like forearms with deadlifts and rows.
cool! im actually really excited about this juji doc. gonna be super interesting to watch his transformation over the years. love your guys content, youre both very inspiring people whose videos really brighten my day. thanks for everything!
Juji your transformation is amazing .. sounds long and arduous but the results and everything you must’ve learned is top notch 👌🏼 ++ Tom is so strong pound for pound !?!?
I've tried the bench press both with bar and dumbbells for years, and engaging my chest was always difficult. The hex press is the only exercise that targets my chest. I feel it.
7.5 years ago after banging through press ups, I was at a sort of a old school gym and I saw these chest flys (the second machine used) and I was really excited to try it out. I also did dumbell flys on the bench with my elbows bent about a 60 degree angle. Had a decent record for bench press. It really helped with the pectoral development. I have yet to hit the gym again but have been focusing on bodyweight workouts and flexibility for the past few months. Good to know that most of what I did back then was not wrong haha. Now I can further improve on these when I am back in the gym.
Man I never ment to be a dick about things, but im happy to have met u guys, as I finally have found a professinallal with a sence of humor.. I live in Australia, and from Oregon. and lived in Idaho, and mate, its refresheshing to see cheech and chong and just lifting.

I have a pet theory that relative limb length and limb dominance are correlated. For example, Juji's chest is underdeveloped and he's also mentioned his long relative wingspan (76-77in?), whereas Tom's more typical frame (arm length, in particular) lends itself to chest development more easily. I'm just over 6' tall with a 76 inch wingspan and I definitely suffer from limb dominance and have trouble getting my chest up.
My chest(it was a weakpoint) started growing when I focused on the mind muscle connection. When I was doing bench press I used to feel it more in my shoulders despite having a good form. Then I've set a goal to improve my connection with the muscle on the bench press and the more I was feeling it, the better I got with connecting with my chest and it started growing. So yeah my tip is to focus on mind muscle connection.
OMG posing sessions with Flex Wheeler!? The start of the construction for the massive Gym & and a full hour bio in the works for the end of the year release?! What a hell of an announcement! \m/!!
He's 31. Made a little boo-boo in his arithmetic and corrected it in replies to other comments of astonishment. I've even heard him in a previous video or something saying he turned
Benchpress is fantastic for building chest, but it has to be done correctly. First you have to figure out which grip width you can contract your chest the most with. For me it's closer grip, since I'm shoulder dominant. Therefor doing more tricep benching helped me greatly. I understand that being "not natural" (not accusing anyone) it's hard to overcome the insane shoulder growth response and it's hard to remove the shoulders from any benchpressing exercise but it can be done. My second point is volume and intensity. I could never grow my chest doing insane amount of reps in the presses. I always have to keep the reps in between 3-5 then do higher reps with accessories. I never go to failure with chest except during cable flies.
Over the last 2 years or so haven't done any bench pressing apart from a little incline but I have been doing the same as you guys dips and flie variations because the feel of the pump and the muscle contraction and mind to muscle connection is like Tom said really good feeling
Haven't seen any of your videos in awhile, probably not since you 2 had made the channel for both of you(gave tom his credit which is awesome). Yall got huge
Lacking Chest + Under Developed Triceps is the out come of not utilizing the benchpress. Almost fell out of my chair when he said that the benchpress was a poor muscle builder.
@@michaelcolbourn6719 dude what kind of crap are you running your mouth about? Your first post said “he’s admitted to using steroids,” then you back up and say you never actually heard him say that....people like you are what’s wrong with the world today lol
@@gordongoodwin9551 I didst say he's never said it. I said I don't know what specific vids he's said it in but he has mentioned it. But it is a known fact he has or is on steroids.

I one day wish for you guys to be in a video together. Ahhhh a world where both my fitness worlds and my gaming worlds come together....I smell utopia. Love you guys and everything you do!
Please do a collab with James from Funhaus!!! You are two of my favorite channels and James just said in the last video on funhaus that he watches you guys too! Truly a match made in heaven
so looking at juji's old pics you could argue that chest is definitely his weak point. His muscles all around were being developed while his chest was non existent. However, look at his chest today, you can tell that this man has put an inhuman ammount of effort to develop it to this point, so props to you for that Juji.
A R I don’t look like sh!t, nice of you to assume that, I imagine you have a lot of friends. There has been a study of PD’s. There was a group that didn’t workout, but just took the average amount of ‘roids. The other group worked out, but didn’t take steroids (you can search for this, it’s true). The group that did not even workout got more gains than the group that didn’t take PED’s. Also, without taking ‘roids, it’s impossible to look like this. Name one recent mister Olympia that did not use ‘roids.
JUJI!!!! YOU HAVE TO TRY ring dips or ring push ups for your chest! It works like the hex press because you have to constantly adduct to stabilise the rings and prevent them from slipping out!
Juji just got back from Alabama, back to 3 videos a week :)
This is gonna be fucking awesome. Can’t wait to see the doc.

For example, Juji's chest is underdeveloped and he's also mentioned his long relative wingspan (76-77in?), whereas Tom's more typical frame (arm length, in particular) lends itself to chest development more easily. I'm just over 6' tall with a 76 inch wingspan and I definitely suffer from limb dominance and have trouble getting my chest up.
Did anyone else touch the screen when he told us to touch his chest?...
yes
Yes
Yes
Nope, i am using Smart Toilet
Love for the effort you putting into the transformation video. Incredible
What's that song that plays over the clips of Juji early on in the vid?
Bring My Friends - Tigerblood Jewel, Steven Ellis
@@themelbournebeerreview1395 Any idea what the song is at 10:30?
Stop pushing things! Make love! PULL!!!😇
My chest(it was a weakpoint) started growing when I focused on the mind muscle connection. When I was doing bench press I used to feel it more in my shoulders despite having a good form. Then I've set a goal to improve my connection with the muscle on the bench press and the more I was feeling it, the better I got with connecting with my chest and it started growing. So yeah my tip is to focus on mind muscle connection.
OMG posing sessions with Flex Wheeler!? The start of the construction for the massive Gym & and a full hour bio in the works for the end of the year release?!
What a hell of an announcement!
\m/!!
Turns out Tom is way older than i guessed. Aging well! As for giving him or anyone old hard drives... NOPE lol
He's 31. Made a little boo-boo in his arithmetic and corrected it in replies to other comments of astonishment. I've even heard him in a previous video or something saying he turned
Benchpress is fantastic for building chest, but it has to be done correctly. First you have to figure out which grip width you can contract your chest the most with. For me it's closer grip, since I'm shoulder dominant. Therefor doing more tricep benching helped me greatly. I understand that being "not natural" (not accusing anyone) it's hard to overcome the insane shoulder growth response and it's hard to remove the shoulders from any benchpressing exercise but it can be done.
My second point is volume and intensity. I could never grow my chest doing insane amount of reps in the presses. I always have to keep the reps in between 3-5 then do higher reps with accessories. I never go to failure with chest except during cable flies.
Young Juji does noooot look like young Juji🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️😆
Over the last 2 years or so haven't done any bench pressing apart from a little incline but I have been doing the same as you guys dips and flie variations because the feel of the pump and the muscle contraction and mind to muscle connection is like Tom said really good feeling
Yea, well, Serge Nubret chest workout: one thousands sets of 12 bench press...
Lmao
Haven't seen any of your videos in awhile, probably not since you 2 had made the channel for both of you(gave tom his credit which is awesome). Yall got huge
Funny thing is that people say “Weak point” but its still better than 99% of people. You’re a beast Juji
Theyre weaker than his genetically gifted areas, but still superior the average gym bro.
Exactly, and I’d say it’s still better than 100% of people sitting on the couch not going to the gym at all
You’re a beast Tom! Can’t wait for the doc.
Lacking Chest + Under Developed Triceps is the out come of not utilizing the benchpress. Almost fell out of my chair when he said that the benchpress was a poor muscle builder.
YEAH!!!!! Flex will have you ON POINT! Juji you got this!
I'm on the smart toilet, it's talking to me boys...I'm scared
Iv been watching juji for a long time and realized I havent subscribed so I subbed now
Hold up, Tom is 41?
bruh
No way!?
Age is just a number....
I thought he was 31!
@@anandsekar7818 no it's not...
This was a good video! Needed that peptalk, Juji & Tom!
WHO TF actually thinks this dude is natty????
No one.. he's admitted to using steroids
@@michaelcolbourn6719 when did he admit? Could you link it? I'm curious to hear it myself
@@Xxstevo69xX idk, I'm sure he's mentioned it in previous vids and he has never denied it.. and it's just plain obvious
@@michaelcolbourn6719 dude what kind of crap are you running your mouth about? Your first post said “he’s admitted to using steroids,” then you back up and say you never actually heard him say that....people like you are what’s wrong with the world today lol
@@gordongoodwin9551 I didst say he's never said it. I said I don't know what specific vids he's said it in but he has mentioned it. But it is a known fact he has or is on steroids.
Dude Juji! Your test felt just as solid as my monitor for some reason! Nice work!
Juji doc: “Jumping Iron”
Ya know, cuz Juji does flips... and stuff like that... and then cuz the doc Pumping Iron...
Alright not my best.
Looking forward to the Juji documentary!
I touched juji’s chest on my screen, he did one rep. Thank me juji
Awesome vid as always Juj and Tom! Looking forward to the doc!
Hey, your channel was mentioned in the most recent Funhaus video. Just thought I would mention that.
James is among us...
Let me guess, James brought it up? LMAO.
@@donniex8799 You're damn right haha
@@jon8348 ha, knew it. Love the guys at funhaus.
Joji & Tom, another big youtuber James Willams (the jacked one) from Funhaus has the biggest crush on you two. (He was talking about you guys on one of their latest vidoes). I one day wish for you guys to be in a video together. Ahhhh a world where both my fitness worlds and my gaming worlds come together....I smell utopia. Love you guys and everything you do!
The only thing that improves genetics is Tren
Please do a collab with James from Funhaus!!! You are two of my favorite channels and James just said in the last video on funhaus that he watches you guys too! Truly a match made in heaven
When is tom getting on the juice
Out of all the videos you've guys made this one taught me the most about bodybuilding.
Him from 18 years ago: *fit*
Me 18 years ago: 👶
Supppeeerrr hype for the juji doc💪💯
so looking at juji's old pics you could argue that chest is definitely his weak point. His muscles all around were being developed while his chest was non existent. However, look at his chest today, you can tell that this man has put an inhuman ammount of effort to develop it to this point, so props to you for that Juji.
Literally the best duo in the fitness industry 🔥
This actually makes me want to take ‘roids 😂
You probably will still look like shit, it's not like PD is a magical spell with all the answers
I don't know alot about roids but I know it basically just improves your recovery so your gonna have to lift alot more
A R I don’t look like sh!t, nice of you to assume that, I imagine you have a lot of friends.
There has been a study of PD’s. There was a group that didn’t workout, but just took the average amount of ‘roids.
The other group worked out, but didn’t take steroids (you can search for this, it’s true).
The group that did not even workout got more gains than the group that didn’t take PED’s. Also, without taking ‘roids, it’s impossible to look like this. Name one recent mister Olympia that did not use ‘roids.
@@jordy2299 of course this is unattainable without roids still would look like shit tho since sterioids only give u around +20% or so maybe less
DankMark no, did you even read my complete comment? And again, nice of you to assume I look like sh!t. Stop that
JUJI!!!! YOU HAVE TO TRY ring dips or ring push ups for your chest! It works like the hex press because you have to constantly adduct to stabilise the rings and prevent them from slipping out!
