Been watching Jeff’s videos for 8 years and performing his exercises with fantastic results. The guy is legendary, hugely unappreciated and he’s built up one of the largest & most comprehensive free video libraries on RUclips. The guy is not only a physiotherapist, but he is one of the few physios that lives & breathes his craft. I’m sure most people reading this have been to the Physio before, but how many have a physique like Jeff? All I can say is if you’re reading this Jeff, thank you.
Currently rehabbing from rotator cuff surgery (5th over the past 25 years). I appreciate this channel because I see many of my rehab exercises in these workouts. Keep up the great work 👍🏼
All this high quality info for free. Thank you guys! 46 years old and almost as cut as I was at 22 after basic training- a lot of the progress thanks to Jeff's education. You guys are awesome.
@@nomnomyourmom But yeah usually when i have a beef with someone i erase the whole thing after its bad energy. But we can keep going if you want just give me your fb or insta
Jeff you have changed my life and helped me effectively train with purpose through my workouts! I have made amazing progress that my friend thinks I am on some type of PED but it’s simply following your advice! I love you and Jesse! Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do for the Fitness community!!!!!!
He has changed many lives! Each one with a different story... I am the weakest person ever (tall thin girl hardgainer only good for cardio stuff) and I'm getting stronger each day and starting to do cool things such as pull ups, push ups, heavier squats and dead lifts. Even small steps are wonderdul and make us so proud to improve! All because of Jeff's videos since I never felt the need to hire a coach with such good advice / tips. We are SO lucky to have acess to these videos...
The dumbbell high pull is a game changer on pull days. Many thanks to Jeff for showing this one, upright rows never felt natural or comfortable to me but I could never figure out why.
I'm 57 and have been training hard for 40 years. I respect this guy more than the others because I really believe that he is not drug enhanced and that carries a lot of weight (no pun lol) with me. Too many guys take roids, get a great physique and all of a sudden they are an expert on how to build muscle which is lame as heck.
Look at his physique friend, the muscle mass and separation and definition...plus his ridiculously hollowed out cheeks. He is almost certainly, " enhanced ". Look at how tiny and skinny his skeletal frame itself is and the very narrow, flat rib cage. Then realize the amount of muscle on it and how insanely ripped he is. He looks like he was a super tiny, super skinny guy who worked out a lot, starting doing Test., then moved on to taking diuretic pills and became ultra shredded. Sure he eats well and works out a lot but still, he does not at all look to be carrying a totally natty physique there. Again, look at how unhealthily sunken in his face/cheeks are. Well, anyway, that's my opinion. Believe what you like.
Jeff has motivated me at 47 years old to finally get in shape. I've been going strong with a total body workout every other day for the last 6 weeks. Nothing impressive to most but I can see a change. Thanks Jeff 👍
High pulls are probably the best excersise I have learned from Jeff. When I was dealing with shoulder impingement high pulls allowed me to safely grow lateral delts. Honestly even people without injuries I’d recommend high pull over the lateral raise.
THANK YOU..... I do a normal shoulder day using the "100's" workout. I will be implementing these because I want my shoulders to grow. After having my right shoulder rebuilt in 2021, it has been a long road to get it built back up. After about 3 months of the 100's, I am ready to push them both now and grow that round look. Your workouts are awesome and have helped me and my 19 year old son who is just starting, to get much better muscle and growth.
Solid content as usual. After tearing my rotator cuff a few years ago…on a mobility exercise🤦♂️…I’ve found the most growth/gains spamming lateral & rear raises in sets of 30/40 for 3/4 sets 3/4 times per week…and also use bench as support when doing back so that there is no momentum. Zero shoulder pain and feel much stronger than before injury.
Love it Jeff thanks for the killer looking shoulder workout. Because of my disability from my nerve damage my shoulders is something that I really focus on with lighter weight and slowing things down a bit helps me with my mind - muscle connection so that I don’t hurt myself.
Wider delts and overall shoulder improvement has been a summertime priority for me. But gains have been nil !! thanks for this video and some new motivations.
@@imanoppressedamerican Thanks for that in-depth reply. No, there are very few "added sugars" in my diet and very little processed food other than protein powders and a 1/2 cup of breakfast cereal. Besides that, I am even more stricter than Jeff is with his ice cream and carrot cake weaknesses - I never touch that stuff! And no, I don't eat every 3-hours, maybe I'll work on that and adopt it into my daily eating plan. I also don't eat any meat or meat products other than baked chicken so I'm sure I'm missing some important nutrition there that protein powders can't make up for. By the way, congratulations to you, I think your post is the first time ever in the history AthleanX that the "vshred" name has been used . . . you may find that your post disappears in a few days ! Best regards and thanks again.
I have to say, this intro; literally the first 7 seconds is my new favorite into. You ask a question into the camera that causes me to involuntarily say out loud, "YES!" then I just have to watch the rest of it. LOL
I love this. At one point you did a video on "developing cannonball shoulders." It was working great for me. Unfortunately, I stopped working out during COVID-19. I'm finally getting started again and really enjoying my time in the gym.
From the thumbnail I thought I'd seen this one before - turns out I haven't, and even if I've seen something similar, it's great to be reminded, motivated and inspired. Thanks as always, Jeff!
As always thank you for your excellent knowledge. Also massive thank you for not using a backing track. I only want to hear and concentrate on your voice. Like the old days. 🤝
Jeff, your "guys remember" at 08:21 just let me scared, so I picked up my stuff and headed to the gym... Greetings from Santos, São Paulo state, Brazil
Alright Jeff, is there any chance you could do a dedicated video about keeping consistency? Stressing and elaborating how much does consistency actually mattered? No matter how controlled the work out schedule could be, or how controlled the diet is, I know that keeping consistent is the actual key of it all, and it is always easily said than done. I've been doing on and off for years now, and I've been trying to get back into working out again, this time I hope I will be more consistent than ever. I hope you could make a video to potentially motivate me, and many more out there that is possibly dealing with the same problems as mine.
I've grown my shoulders to an extent that everyone who sees me thinks I've used steroids. The secret behind it is simply being consistent and increasing the weight as you progress My current weight for shoulder exercise is 50 kg and I've been training with this since 8 months I recommend the same strategy for all those who are interested in growing some huge shoulders BEWARE: Sometimes people with weak shoulders may get SEVERE injuries if weight is not increased gradually So try to gradually increase your weight; give at least a month to each weight category before increasing it!
Absolutely love Jeff’s videos and all the advice/info he shares but I do wish he’d post a workout program for someone who only wants to lift 3 days a week and use other days to focus on cardio, yoga, mma, etc. rather than assuming we’re all gonna only lift weights 6 days a week
@@nomnomyourmom that’s a good vid but I really prefer a pull/push/legs split only problem with Jeff’s is that it’s designed to lift 6 days a week and each day of the split is different. It would be perfect if he had one standard, condensed push/pull/legs split that you could do once (3 days) or twice (6 days) per week to fit your schedule.
@@grimlocke6988 do 3x/week then do the other workout next week, alternate back and fourth instead of keep doing the same workout. You can add 1-2 more exercises if you're gonna do this.
You are an inspiration, man! This inspires me to just do what I need to do to be happy with myself! Love it, Jessie! I hope I spelt your name right lol.
Was feeling pretty good until I had to check my ego at the door during the Upper Limit Laterals. If you're doing it right, prepare to be humbled...Thanks for the great workout Jeff!
Thank you Jeff, your videos have made a world of difference in my physique. And your protein powder is the best I've ever tried. It mixes so easily with just water, and tastes like chocolate milk. 🙏
Please do a video on how to activate/work on the upper lats/under the armpit and also at the end of your lats near your waist/hips 🙏 Am having problems with lat activation.
I am a little perplexed as to why I am yet to see any YT fitness guru share any stretching resistance exercises for side delts (or for other delts). I got best results after 30 years of training by using the cable attached above head height, crouching down, and really letting the arm stretch as far as possible back in front of the body, then doing a side delt pull at about 50% of full range of motion. Think about it. All these lateral raises you normally do typically occur in an arc of about 75 degrees - resistance begins above the hip, ends just above the shoulder. If you set the cable so the arm/elbow moves way back across the body and the elbow is almost up to the opposite shoulder, you get an incredible stretch, and a contraction that you just can’t get with the normal range of motion for side lateral raises. I suggest doing the stretch side laterals along side normal side laterals. You will really see a huge difference in side lateral development.
@@nomnomyourmom The stretch I am referring to is not a rear contraction. Think of the typical resistance plane here for the right arm side lateral as being about 5 o’clock to 3 o’clock. That’s not a great range of motion, and there’s no stretch. By using a cable attached above shoulder height and crouching down, you can get a great stretch, and resistance from about 10 o’clock to 5 o’clock.
@@nomnomyourmom You linked to the Athleanx video. The range of motion for all exercises in the video is about 25% of the full range of motion available by using cables. There is no real resistance from 10 o’clock to 5 o’clock on a circular plane with the right arm, same in reverse for left arm. Swing your right arm anti-clockwise, in a circle, imagining it as the big hand of a clock. You might begin to be able to appreciate what I am saying, which is hard to describe in writing.
Brilliant advice as always, love some of these exercises and methods such as cheat laterals and starting off working out shoulders with a pressing movement
