It’s so nice to have these older guys doing work outs, I’m in my late 30’s now and having these Older dude showing what workouts to do us great , shows you can still look good well into you’re 50’s .... go buff dudes
Doing the 12 week program at the moment, day two of phase one. Feeling great to start a journey of 2 dudes I respect. Thanks Brandon & Hudson (insert bicep flex)
Its important to note that this is only a selected few of the exercises Cavill did. I'm fairly sure he did squats, bench and ohp as well as any number of other lifts.
@@HellSpartanZ Books are really nice tho. But not a fan of the Author. He does not want to admit that the books gained popularity because of the games and also bashes us gamers.
You need to drink a lot of slovakian vodka and fight with old monster in shop called biedronka for staff at sales. Than You gona feel like you would beat witcher training :D
I miss watching you guys at the Mecca. You guys should do a yearly pilgrimage to the Mecca where you guys pay tribute to yatS ffuB. Love you guys. Favorite channel!
The witcher 3 is so goddamn overrated jesus fuck. I have read all the books and played all the games. Yes the game.is pretty great, but honestly, it's not even top 10 of the last 10 years
Should be the glutes and hamstrings being the prime movers for that movement amigo; your back is isometrically stabilizing, but it should not be directly moving the weight.
I want to thank you guys for the great tips and helping me stay motivated with my workout. I took a break from working out and went crazy eating all kinds of stuff unhealthy stuff lol. Now it's time to get back on track. Your videos really helps with getting back on track. Thanks guys!!
Dudes! In relation to the show I’ve read that it is based on the books not so much the games. So don’t be disappointed if you were expecting a game adaptation.
Honestly great news because the books have so much depth. Also for anyone who has already read them and wants a new experience “re-reading” them. Definitely give the audiobook a go. The narrator is absolutely fantastic and adds a lot of humour to the famously sarcastic parts and tension to the books.
Great video as usual,Edward Norton American History X workout(not superhero but still would be cool) and Hugh Jackman The Wolverine workout would be awesome
A couple years back, when I was first getting into fitness, I played the Witcher games and decided that I wanted to look like Geralt did in Wild Hunt (minus the scars). I figured that since I'm a skinnier guy, it'd be a realistic goal for me. Now, I'd say I kinda do look like that (fine, my arms and legs are a bit smaller), but I stopped caring about aesthetics altogether a while ago.
What’s wrong with the scars? That was the only thing I thought I’d love to imitate...not the musculature/lack thereof. You gotta earn those things man.
@@DiamorphineDeath I got nothing against scars - got one down my chest, one across my sternum, and one on my chin, but I'm not gonna get covered in scars on purpose.
Not what I said; what I said, or implied anyways with my last statement is it shows a life well lived doing things that normal everyday individuals would not do. Say chainsaw/wood working/manual labor, what have you. You pick up scars as you go as it shows that you did not live a soft or easy life. Hence the use of an abundant and hyperbolic amount in the game, is to show the experience and stories that must have gone into that, pointing towards the main character being even more of a badass than one might expect. I'm pointing more towards living the stories and everything that comes with them, not superficially saying you should be covered in them. Again....have to earn them, and have to earn the stories that accompany them.
@@DiamorphineDeath my bad. What I initially meant when I said "minus the scars" was that I wasn't going to intentionally get hurt to make myself look like a Witcher. I'm a junior in college and an Army ROTC cadet, a year and a half away from going into the army as an officer - with the intention of being an infantryman, as well. If I can walk out of that life unscathed, that'd be great. If I don't, well, I knew I was going into a life-threatening job when I signed the contract. The idea of being covered in scars doesn't scare me. I hope that clears things up.
Oh for sure dude. And yes, you would want to walk out of military service unscathed, but knowing that injuries, etc, are going to be a reality. And that's the whole point of adversity dude, if you got out of it unscathed, then what's the point you know?
The GymJones is old news. They got famous training the cast of 300. Whilst they achieve good aesthetic results for their actors, it's with a truckload of steroids, calorie deprivation and workout protocols so extreme it verges on injuring people....
@@davidwesterberg375 No I didn't say that at all. 99% of all Hollywood actors who suddenly get ripped in eight weeks are indeed on gear. they're not professional athletes so no one is testing them for dope.....
Hi Buff Dudes, could you do or do you have a 4 week plan workout for some one who works from 9 to 5 and has a 4 hour daily commute, and can only workout for an hour a day, thanks in advance and keep making this great workout videos!
Google Jim Wendlers 531 series, he’s got specifics based on low time frame, extra accessory work needs,, etc. You can go in, hit two compound lifts, say Monday deadlift/overhead press, weighted chins, and dips. Then Thursday squat/bench, with some curls and rows. Do some movement stuff through the week, jump rope at home, get a kettlebell in your backyard, etc, and you can get in fucking stellar shape. It’s good for the hormones, and you don’t have to destroy yourself with volume work as a natural lifter. Sometimes being crunched for time can be a godsend in terms of lifting as it forces you to prioritize what movements/exercises are going to give you the biggest bang for your buck, and make you toss out a majority of the isolation/accessory work. Think of it as your compound lifts being the scoops of ice cream in a bowl, and accessory work being the sprinkles. If you want to look good, focus on the scoops and toss out the sprinkles for a good long while, or until you have the luxury of time to devote to fucking off and doing tons of volume in the gym.
Greetings from Poland guys! pardon me, Buff Dudes :) Good luck on the path ;) P.s. I found you thanks to EveryDamnDayFitness (Alan Roberts). Now decided to subscribe :). You made my day with this video. Pozdrowienia dla małżonki :)
Didn't Henry say that these exercises were only a part of his workout? He just showed these as a sample I thought. Still thanks for breakimg them down.
Was happy to see you did this one. Not surprised though ;) I'm probably equally excited about The Witcher series on Netflix but heads up though; the tv series will be focused on material from the book series and not the video game series! Helps to know so that any dissapointments could be explained. Cheers, Buff Dudes of Rivia!
The funny thing is in the books Geralt is very lean and not very muscular. He looks more like a long distance runner. The games put like 50 more pounds of muscle on him instead of following the books. He trained for extreme endurance, but his super natural strength came from his mutations and potions, not his muscles.
Cavill said this wasn’t the workout, he said specifically said these are just movements he uses for specific body parts he works that day. Watch the full video
They mention a workout good if you do manual labor like Sheetrock (drywall) id also recommend like military press or just some dumbbells and shoulder press. For when you gotta screw them lids on.
Superman’s have next to no range of motion and are lower back specific; you bring in more muscles and actually train a movement with back extensions by bringing in the posterior chain to a high degree; so no dude, not a suitable substitute.
Weighted chins and weighted dips... That's all one needs. Or one arm pull ups and sandbag overhead presses. 5-20 rep range. That's the blue print to build the whole upper body. If y'all doing ovh presses, just do some flies for pecs, you know? Take two suitcases, each one loaded with sand, and do straight arm flies while lying down on a bench. Again, 5-20 rep range.
Quick question: With oblique static holds, what kind of weight are we looking at? Heavy enough for a burn, but not heavy enough to cause any shoulder problems?
Question: For the obliques workout - Can you lift an extended barbell weight and hold it out for the same amount of time or does the workout require a push-effect?
The oblique work is anti-rotational, you can attach a band or something, or the cable, or anything that wants to pull you which you are resisting. Holding a weight out in front of you does not accomplish this or stress the same musculature in the same way. You could do loaded carries with one weight in one hand, and nothing with the other, or any number of things, but the anti-rotational aspect is hard to accomplish without bands or cables.
well CD red projekt did just settle a new agreement with the author of the witcher book. it's highly likely that we will get a fourth witcher game. Geralt may not be the main character though, as his story kinda concluded with the last game. Ciri is most likely going to be the main character if a new game series is announced, or they may even go with a different witcher from a different school, but i doubt that.
Question; so is this a full body-style workout that is done throughout the week? And is there any progression to follow? Like are we looking to add weight each week?
What I've heard, according to the books, he is a bit too buff for Geralt. Henry Cavill's preformance as Geralt though, is awesome, and I really like him as Geralt.
@@alex1141000 the muscles and bulk itself are for utility, in the book and games he's indeed skinnier. But you gotta remember that that's fiction and he is magically enhanced. So it makes sense for the live adaptation of him to be bigger
Great books. The witcher 2 and 3 were awsome games. I may try some of this to help stay a bit better shape for Bjj. Thanks for this video. Plus this can help in my new job in the O.R.
