Matt, This is is the best quality video in this series I think you have done. Your speaking cadence is the best on this video this far! This work is so important! Thanks Coach!
Dude.... this is like THEE' no b.s. training vedios ever. Been working out for years & years; did alright. Kind of average. At 50; decided to quit the machines and actually follow an OLD SCHOOL full body workout and TRAIN. Using strict proper form. Let me tell you, this is how it's done. THANK YOU
I bulked up I just wanted to look good but now I want to push it to the limit it was easy to build muscle but strength is really hard and a new challenge for me thank you sir
I love Matt how you explain the concepts, easy straightforward and very informative. Six months into the gym and not only my muscle memory responded but I gotten stronger!! Hanging from a bar it’s so challenging for us ladies, but I’m improving more each month. It’s also important to mention all the benefits that I’m getting to protect my bones from osteoporosis. Weight lifting it’s the best exercises for menopausal women. Nothing match the benefits. ❤

What do you say about supporting exercises for these 4 major exercies. 1. Doing tricep for improving benchpress 2. legpress for improving squats 3. dumbell or cable rowing for improving deadlift 4. size raises to improve shoulder press etc.
These are all fine, but tend to be used for intermediate or advanced lifters (one exception is the rowing, as we have our athletes do some kind of upper body pull really early on). SO, our clients end up doing these eventually if they're consistent for a long time, but to start with, they're not really needed.
1. Exercise use the most mussel mass (bend as many joints as possible) 2. Lift most weights in the perfect form 3. Move through as wide range of motion as possible (ensure number 2)
It's pretty hard and not super safe to do for bench press...you probably need another person to do this. For all the other lifts, you'd need to clean it up or put the bar high enough.
im surprised this guy has only 70k subs, this gold and sound logic, really apreaciate it, and somehow im getting this in a strange chonological order so its very informative.
thanks for the videos. i keep hearing you gotta do the squat, deadlift and bench press. trying to avoid it a while now. i want pure strength. Seems i have to suck it up and get to work. thanks
A belt will not fix your back problems. You might try a variety of exercises. One thing that seems to help is high-rep, low weight RDLs (get lots of blood flowing into the back). That being said, back pain is both common and comes from a wide variety of cause, so we wish you the best of luck!
When I bench press my left arm seems to fall behind pushing the bar off my chest into full elbow extension. I’ve been doing nothing but the exercises mentioned here. I am gaining strength but I also feel I might be gaining some muscular imbalances leading to this one sided weakness. Thoughts?
Muscular imbalances are normal because most people favor one side of their body than the other (in activities outside the gym). If you use dumbbells or other things like that, use your weaker side first and do the same # of reps.
Can I replace a bench press for a floor press?? What's your opinion on people doing military press on their knees I heard it's more effective?? I've lost a lot of weight these past six months of riding a stationary bicycle ,the reason I chose this option was when I was lifting heavy, I gained fat muscle. Like I just got thickness instead of actually muscle, I won't lie I always wanted an ancient Roman physique but my clothes started tearing up even at the clinic they warned me about my health. So is heavy lifting really the way to go when trying to level up? I really don't believe that light weight is the way forward doing ten reps is hard enough with heavy,now I guess I'll have to do fifty with lighter ones?!?! Any advice? Nice show greetings All the way from RSA!! God bless America!!🎉
Good questions. Can do this, blut floor press does not hit the pecs as much as the bench press. It's more awkward to actually perform on your knees. It's a more stable platform. Would do these on your feet and then occasionally do the seated press. ruclips.net/video/PhCNJy_Td7U/видео.htmlsi=_V35_EOcNc17tXN5 Lastly, really need to focus on nutrition to get that physique. Not too many calories. If you bulk, do so with 200-300 calorie surplus. Eat sufficient protein.
@@BarbellLogic thanks for making time to answer me!!😊 Just watched the video and also downloaded it. Keep up the good quality work and professionalism!! Good night???! 18:44 pm GMT RSA time.
My father is 76 years old. He has been weightlifting for two years. Would it be a good idea for him to split his workout so that he does only arms one day, then only torso the next day, and only legs the next day?
if FIVE reps are the way to go, should an aspiring lifter pyramid the weights per set? or increase the weight after a successful completion of sets/reps?
Novice lifters should start with a moderately heavy workset of 3x5 and add weight each time, typically 5lbs. If a workset isn't fully completed, you'll have to determine why that happened before you make any adjustments to your programming (recovery variable was off, build-up fatigue, inappropriate jump in weight, etc).
@Becoming Godsize I thought that deadlifts mostly hit the legs and lower back, the barbell row primarily hits the lats and biceps so is a useful addition.
Having a hard time finding the ideal splits for the workouts. I keep looking a videos but can’t find it. I don’t know if I have to do them all in one day or in what way to split workouts.
What about dumbbell presses instead of the bench press? Are inclines and declines accessory exercises? Can/should one perform only the four barbell exercises for the entire lifetime?
I think barbell exercises are better from the view that it is easier to make small increases in weight per workout or per week. Dumbells go up 2.5 kg, so to increase weight means lifting 5 kg more, which is hard if you lack strength and are starting with a low weight. With a barbell you can put as little as 1 kg on the bar at a time, very useful for me with shoulder presses where I am very weak. You also can't lift as much weight with dumbells because you have to do more work stabilising the weight, since both dumbells have more freedom of movement.
Yes, I thought that deadlifts recruit more muscle mass than squats, yet squats are labelled the king of exercises more often than deadlifts. I much prefer deadlifting to squatting, I can deadlift more than I can squat.
ATG squats are the most beautiful squats, they are testimony to great athleticism, mobility, joint health and strength much more than any other type of squats. Even though it takes much more time or years of practice to squat very heavy with ATG, it’s more satisfying, and more pleasant to look at. Why not to practice both? 😊

Some of us don't have a rack at home. Please make a video on how to do bench press or to lift barbell without a rack

Solid suggestions
thanks for the videos. i keep hearing you gotta do the squat, deadlift and bench press. trying to avoid it a while now. i want pure strength. Seems i have to suck it up and get to work. thanks

@@BarbellLogic copy that thank you I'll start high rep then build from there
Well said.
Great video!
Thank you
what about pulling motions? like rows or pull ups?
add those early on - depends on your advancement levels & goals
@@BarbellLogic sound one, the videos are a really helpful guideline btw!
@@killiantallon8086 thanks!
1:40 never heard of deadlifts
How about pulling? Shouldn’t there be at least 1 pulling exercise as well?
For a true beginner, the isometric work from the deadlift is enough. We add a pulling exercise early on, and for some right away.
I would like to know what is the best pull exercise on these criteria.
Use different pull exercieses, but we like the pendlay barbell bow
pull-ups & chin-ups are great too
Thx

I was waiting to hear a rep range which I’m assuming is somewhere between four and eight?
Subbed. Great content
Weighted pull-ups are pretty good too.
if i do my weights squad deep will improve my strenght?
I think so
Can I replace a bench press for a floor press??
What's your opinion on people doing military press on their knees I heard it's more effective??

Doesn't the deadlift use more muscle mass than the squat? It seems like people can often deadlift more than they can squat.
Perfect explanation 🤙🏻
Thanks!

For old clients, most coaches tend to do full body workouts but with less frequency - so 2 or 3 times a week.
what about the rwos?
if FIVE reps are the way to go, should an aspiring lifter pyramid the weights per set? or increase the weight after a successful completion of sets/reps?
Novice lifters should start with a moderately heavy workset of 3x5 and add weight each time, typically 5lbs. If a workset isn't fully completed, you'll have to determine why that happened before you make any adjustments to your programming (recovery variable was off, build-up fatigue, inappropriate jump in weight, etc).
But don’t you need pulling movements to compensate for the 2 pushing exercises, say barbell row and pull-ups
We have more advanced athletes do both. For novices the HEAVY deadlift is plenty of pulling work!
i agree. Where is the barbell row ?
Becoming Godsize , thank you for the advice my brother ... 👍👌
@Becoming Godsize I thought that deadlifts mostly hit the legs and lower back, the barbell row primarily hits the lats and biceps so is a useful addition.

Disagree? Agree? Share your thoughts below!
Why no upper body pulling exercise like lat pull, seated row or chin up?
What's a 'press'? 🤔
Overhead press:

What about dumbbell presses instead of the bench press? Are inclines and declines accessory exercises? Can/should one perform only the four barbell exercises for the entire lifetime?
One can make progress for a very long time using only the four big lifts as 80%+ of their programming.
I think barbell exercises are better from the view that it is easier to make small increases in weight per workout or per week. Dumbells go up 2.5 kg, so to increase weight means lifting 5 kg more, which is hard if you lack strength and are starting with a low weight.

@@deaditalianguy7353 Thanks!
lol
The quick answer is slowly.
I like deadlifts
excellent
ayo im an extermely skinny guy it feels like it is too hard to gain weight for me, even my knees joins are getting visible.🤦
It's going to take a lot of hard work, both in the gym but more importantly in terms of eating.
I dont want to lose weight, I want to convert it into muscle
This takes time - consistency in training & nutrition.
1) Stress the body in such a way to encourage muscle
2) Eat adequate protein
south africa is next
Boom
I thought deadlift can lift the most weight
it can
I disagree on the exercises. SQUAT/MUSCLE SNATCH/OHP/DEADLIFT.
I see it in the background...what's your poison Real Estate or Sticks ?
So, you don't like the way Olympic lifters squat?
Huh?
He probably means that clean&jerk. When you lift weight overhead
ATG squats are the most beautiful squats, they are testimony to great athleticism, mobility, joint health and strength much more than any other type of squats. Even though it takes much more time or years of practice to squat very heavy with ATG, it’s more satisfying, and more pleasant to look at. Why not to practice both? 😊
Does it mean we don't need other exercises?😂
You do not NEED other exercises. Eventually, for many reasons, it will make sense to incorporate other exercises.
