    "All muscles pull by the way" ... "None of them push..." Hahahaha what a smack down. I have heard this all over and it never made sense to me. Thanks for clarifying why.

      @SaintSoldierN9 6 лет назад +4

      I think people usually mean muscles for pushing-movement and muscles for pulling-movements. But yh it makes you think lol

    • @james3876
      @james3876 4 года назад

      Yea, what the guy above said, the idea is that lots of bench with no counter movement ends up pulling the shoulders forward into an unhealthy ball and socket position.
      My understanding is that deadlifts are a good counter to the bench to prevent chronic forward shoulder rotation.

    On the push/pull question, I found my shoulders got way better when I stopped doing pull-ups and rows. I do find that snatching before benching leaves me feeling less pulled forward afterwards, but that’s the only balancing effort I take now. Thanks for the great content!

  • @papafoster16

    About the 1st Q... I agree with the argument against hypertrophy benefit based on increased ROM using a duffalo/buffalo bar. However, those who advocate using duffalo bar (Kabuki Strength) ascribe the benefits as alleviating discomfort associated with training on a straight bar. Therefore increasing exercise tolerance, volume & intensity. I think this is a more valid argument in favor or these specialty bars, including Safety Squat Bar.
    "What are you going to do, not train?"

    • @BarbellMedicine
      @BarbellMedicine  6 лет назад +2

      I agree in the case for the squat, but this was for the bench press and I would be hard-pressed to agree that the buffalo bar decreases pain in that context.

    • @papafoster16
      @papafoster16 6 лет назад

      The angle of the bar theoretically alters wrist, elbow, & shoulder mechanics through the lift. Similar concept to MB's slingshot without the accommodating resistance... No personal experience just sharing my understanding. Cranky elbows by the end of a Comp Squat & Close Grip Bench session on a straight bar though. Thanks for the VLOGs, watching every one! Especially benefiting from the form reviews.

    • @SaintSoldierN9
      @SaintSoldierN9 6 лет назад

      mechanically you'd probably want a straight bar for bench, as ur elbows are going to want to be "underneath" the bar. With a straight bar this allows the wrists to be aligned, however, with the duffalo bar they may not be. But, whatever allows you to train ay.

    • @joshjohnston7388
      @joshjohnston7388 6 лет назад

      josh foster I mean, sure, but if you're looking for angles to accommodate whatever joint angle, just do everything with an easy curl bar, right? Nah.

  • @sveinhaland2975
    @sveinhaland2975 6 лет назад +6

    On the push pull ratio, I think and speaking for myself having a very bad right shoulder (all 4 rotary cuffs almost completely ruptured back when I was 20, 53 now) and having weak rear deltoids and upper back (can only do a couple of pull ups) I am making sure I get a lot of work done on these muscles as I think it's important to keep my shoulder in place. I usually does something for this in between the pressing sets.

    • @dickpiano1802
      @dickpiano1802 6 лет назад +4

      Anecdotally, every single powerlifter in the world who bench presses does a shit ton of rows and pullups for shoulder health. Frankly, I don't do powerlifting and have a very low opinion of the sport. BUT even powerlifters like Max Aita who came from very sport specific training in weightlifting have a dedicated "back" day specifically for shoulder health now that they do powerlifting.

  • @b.doan98
    @b.doan98 6 лет назад +3

    Achieving a pull that is equivalent to your push and percieving a health benefit can be a placebo effect, i.e. telling yourself "Hey, I am equally strong in my push/pull...and I am not experiencing pain or injured".

    • @BarbellMedicine
      @BarbellMedicine  6 лет назад +4

      That might be true, though just being stronger has a known positive effect on pain incidence.

    • @b.doan98
      @b.doan98 6 лет назад +2

      @joshjohnston7388 6 лет назад

      Jordan D I spent 2 years on body builder style workouts when I was simply never gonna eat the diet. I got lean and aesthetic, but never stronger. But I learned the basic lifts and how to do them without hurting my old, arthritic ass. I kept reading. Learned about progressive overload, waves, low rep sets, yadda yadda.
      I changed my training and got fit. Like... actually fit. I can run, I can jump, I can spin, and the 2/4/6/8 plate strength standard is almost in my grasp. Not bad for a 140 pound guy with arthritis. You live, you learn, you get better.

    Hey Jordan, I’m hoping you see this. I’m 22 years old and overweight. I’m just now at a point where I need to look for my first primary care doctor who isn’t my pediatrician. And you guys have spoken in the past about how beneficial it can be to find one who also has experience in the fitness world. Is there anyway that I can go about trying to find a good one near me without having to just go to several different ones? Love the content keep it up!

      BlondeHealth I'm no jordan feigenbaum but my deadlift used to look a lot like yours. Getting my upper back tight by pushing my chest past my shoulders, towards the bar, really helped me. Also focussing on keeping my shoulders over the bar for as long as possible. Hope this helps

  • @ivanmarasmiladinov3093
    @ivanmarasmiladinov3093 6 лет назад +2

    I'd like to ask you about push:pull... If one would train only the bench and did none of the training for the antagonistic muscle group, would that not be problematic for the shoulder? You did say that training the most amount of muscle mass (which is everything) would be the best, yes. But I cannot help but feel like this is also something that the question is about. I also don't think tere is some sort of total volume or rep scheme that is supposed to be equal between pulling and pushing movement, if only that is the question. As long as you train everything, right?
    Cheers man, thanks for the great content :)

    • @thetruth5232
      @thetruth5232 6 лет назад +4

      Training without any pulling seems totally pointless to me since pulls are probably the most beneficial in daily live. If your a strength athlete, your probably pulling anyway (cleans, snatches, DL) which is in my experience sufficient to train the upper back and shoulder muscles to the degree that you probably won't out-bench-press them anyways.

    • @r.b.4611
      @r.b.4611 6 лет назад +1

      Nah like if you can just do 100 wide grip pushups for 7 sets 6 days a week it'll work out man party on.

    • @Horus-Lupercal
      @Horus-Lupercal 6 лет назад +1

      R.B. - Shutup. If you only train bench you're going to run into a lot of problems regardless, more what Feigenbaum's point was is that there's no magical ratio, and that you don't have to cripple your programming efforts just to hit that seemingly magical 2:1 Pull-Push ratio.I'd say a 1:1 would do you fine.

    • @joshjohnston7388
      @joshjohnston7388 6 лет назад

      Jasper Auld that's how it always seems to me when someone promotes push-pull. Not that there's a magical ratio, just that you need to pull a lot to keep the posterior chain strong and healthy. The BBM crew seems to be pretty nuanced with their answers, which many viewers tend to translate into absolute yes/no.
      It also seems like casual, novice body builder types are the ones who need the pulling advice most. You know... the ones most likely to skip legs.

    Have you seen a video on Pendlay Rows where Glenn Pendlay himself explains how to do them? You can find it on RUclips. He says that you should pull to lower chest/upper abs area and that there should be no body english. I guess it should be better to call the rows that you are doing Barbell Rows from the floor or something like that.

    @pierrotmonami9506 6 лет назад

    experience (the other name of "bro science") shows that if you bench heavy without reenforcing your rear delts, you re more likely to injure yourself. now to work the rear delts you might do rowing with opened elbows, and for the rotator cuff there is a small movement called the "hitchhiker", with very light dumbbell… maybe there are "no studies" on this, but it is only the sign of the fact that there is no such thing as an "exercise science"...

      David Van Legendary well, Jordan didn’t really “debunk” the push-pull ratio, he just stated an opinion. there’s still no science or objective fact behind his opinion. being an MD does not extend authority to all things outside of his area of medical practice.
      it’s an interesting opinion tho.
