  • @angrygoldfish
    @angrygoldfish 2 года назад +465

    That's an interesting idea about the lateral raises. Make the exercise harder by adding slower eccentrics and avoiding momentum as much as possible, but then using a fewer reps than you would normally do.

      I've always thought that volume work on lateral head will make it grow. Granted I haven't gone heavier than 25lbs on those ever maybe I should try heavier sets with low reps. I do see other folks in the gym lateral raise 45lbs but the form is complete shit, they're swinging the weight and I do not think that is sustainable in the long run. A floor trainer at my gym did tell me that momentum comes with heavier weights and that its inevitable. He also said that this isn't necessarily a bad thing since you're working the intended muscle group with heavier loads, its just that now there are other muscle groups assisting your rep(like back, traps,or lats).

    • @angrygoldfish
      @angrygoldfish 2 года назад +3

      @@akai2112123 I agree with him. Momentum is just another tool to use to elicit progression. You have to be careful, but like any tool it has its place. Guys like Mike Israetel are against cheat reps, but they're an overloading tool just like dropsets or rest pause.
      And you can be high volume with lower reps. Volume is primarily equated with how many sets taken to failure (or thereabouts). So 10x5 is higher volume than 5x10. 10x5 is completely unrealistic, but in technical terms it's higher in volume despite the tonnage or total amount of reps being the same. A great way to accumulate more volume is to use lower rep sets. 6-10 is my personal favourite.

    Started incorporating the movement you said in this video for the rear delts, but from another video, where the elbows move more at a lower angle rather than horizontally about 3 months ago and have seen a massive difference in the size and strength of my rear delts. Your videos are always so informative and interesting, so thanks very much for all the great content and advice :) it's really made my training much better over this last year. It's my shoulder (push) day today, so going to use the idea for the lateral raises and see how it goes :)

    I’m working shoulders tomorrow and I’m 100% trying these out 👍🏼 I usually do standing dumbbell overhead presses, but I might incorporate the high incline overhead presses here and there because I like to workout with my body doing the stabilizing over having a machine or bench doing the stabilizing for me. Great stuff!

    I 100% agree with what he says at chapter 5 (Momentum & Not Going HEAVY). When I worked out at home, I used a little bit of swinging (side raises) to get the dumbbells up and slow eccentrics, to really hit the delts. Nowadays I train at the gym and I use really light weights for cable side raises. Since then, my delts haven't had much growth.
    Gotta start incorporating heavy side delt work into my workouts once again!

    I’m really loving your analytically coherent approach on how muscle fibres and alignment play a massive role in the actual muscle building process. You clearly have an in depth knowledge on the process of hypertrophy. I’m currently specialising in the overhead press and it’s variations along with lateral and rear delt work in the 12-15 set range a week and have never seen so many gains 👌🏻🔥

    Good stuff Eugene, like many people I need to grow my rear delts more and the lower arm position you describe,( similar to a high row), really toasted my posterior delts.
    In regards to lateral raises and light weights, we need to keep in mind that going from 20# dumbbells for ten reps to 21# dumbbells for ten is the same percentage increase as going from a 200# bench press for ten reps to a 210# bench press for ten reps !

    Fully agree about rowing for rear delts. I stopped doing rear delt isolation exercises altogether a while ago because I found that lat-focused incline dumbbell rows worked them far better than any isolation exercise ever did. The rear delt pump I get from those is disgustingly huge. That exercise has also been amazing for my lats and back in general, highly recommended it. It’s my favourite back exercise rn

    @renanterezan9922 2 года назад +1

    About the reverse fly... I like to do this exercise on the crossover cables, so I can set it to a lower height as you shown to be better.
    For rear delt work, I also like the facepull. I start with heavier sets without the external rotation to focus more on the rear delt, then I do some more sets with the external rotation with lighter load.
    But the one exercise that really helped my with delt development is the upright row. Yeah, that's it. Yes, it can be dangerous, but only if you do it with a form that does not suit your body well enough. In the beginning it would bother my shoulders, but as times goes by I was tweaking the movement and now it is my favorite shoulder exercise. A common "mistake" is to grip the bar to narrow and lift it too high. You just gotta listen to your body, it will show you when something is bad.

    Hey Eugene awesome video again with good explanation! I got a problem and i hope you could help me with it. i have been training for over 4 years now and made some great progress, my back is getting wider aswell but there is no "Thickness" i have done everything from upperback movement to trap exercises to stretches and all kinds of stuff but i dont seem to gain any muscles between my shoulder blades. Even when i protract and retrect my scapula it just don't work. So now my back seems way less muscular and out of proportion. I hope you could help me answer this because i can't seem to find something that will help me out with it.
    Thank you in advance!
