Dr. Mike. It's a real shame that you haven't done a video in a sleeveless doctors coat yet. This is a very big missed opportunity in my book haha. Love the videos, thank you for all that you do!
I’m doing Mentzer’s heavy duty program. I started it during the beginning of April 2022. This August I’ll be doing be my third work set for biceps. Can’t wait.
None of it made sense, and then you threw in the rotation analogy, and all of a sudden I understood everything. What an enlightening moment! Thank you Doctor
Okay I’ve been checking out this channel for a week and it’s time to admit: this dude is the singularity of useful, on-point, trimmed-down fitness information
This videos are pure gold. I came across this channel a month ago and I can't stop watching every video that pops up on my feed. It's my favorite channel on YT by far right now due to how much you can learn and laugh at the same time. Thanks for everything you share with us, Dr. Mike. Love from Uruguay
I couldn’t agree more brother this guy is great I have watch all different people but this guys pulls you in with the of brand humor and actually really good advice putting the science in it as well
I"ll be giving this a shot. I usually do 8 sets on push and pull. So 16 weekly sets. Going to train them with an additional day to bring that volume to 24 or so.
Rep range is a HUGE ONE! Once I started doing reps of 20 on db/bb curls... I really started to notice growth! I never felt such a burn and pump when I was doing 10-12. Rep range really did it for me on biceps.
Man this is what I need. My body has been growing fast but I’ve always followed the rule “compound movements first”: time to just hit it almost every other day and get these tiny arms up!
Many of us fall into the powerlifting spider build. Torso dominance came for me from a fear of being one of those skinny fools with oddly jacked arms. Currently trying to bring up the arms via the lower/ torso/ bro split, the bro days are fun as hell
Same, I've always followed some sort of routine that always had compounds first arms last, I have mates that didn't take the gym as seriously and randomly did biceps curls at home whenever. I can destroy them on the big 4 lifts, yet regardless my arms are tiny compared to theirs.
@@telramba I really liked full body every other day when I did it, but the sessions would get long and I’d be fried by the last few exercises. So I switched to push pull legs for the moment. More days, so I may switch back, getting pretty tired day after day. Also I noticed with push pull legs 6 days a week, I need to eat a lot more. Which is hard on the wallet 😂
I’d love to see this for legs, back, and chest. A video on the following would also be cool: Periodizing an annual plan where you’re rotating through different specializations so you specialize on everything at least once in the year, including deloads, specialization breaks for when you’re in a fat loss phase, etc. Thanks Mike!
That lean guy not eating enough was me. Only since RP and September 23 have I changed my focus to bodybuilding and starting eating more have I put on muscle in a few years. In truth, got suckered by the main-gain crowd. A very attractive idea for someone who's been lean for years and sees fat as an absolute negative.
Dr mike said eat enough calories to grow the muscle, I want to grow muscle yet cut down belly fat to get abs. How can I cut down the belly fat if I’m not in a calorie deficit becasue i need to be in surplus to build.
@@gabjen7548what I’ve learned from dr mike on that; bulk for a few weeks, maintain for a few weeks, then start your cut. There’s a lot more to it but that’s the gist of it. If you search something along “RP bulking and cutting” you’ll probably find a video with all the information you need.
@@gabjen7548it’s really hard to do at the same time. to get the best results do phases. for example, do some mass gain for some weeks, then maintain, then do a cut for a few weeks etc as needed. you may have to do multiple subsequent cut then maintenance phases if you have a lot of fat you want to lose to prevent diet fatigue.
Something that worked for me was changing my back grip. Underhand for barbell rows. Hammer grip on chins / lat pulldown. Curling then lifting up high with dumbbell curls. (Hard to explain the last one)
Amen ,I had this thought earlier and googled “meant vs deserve” and found this video Everything you said aligns with my thoughts on this too I said for years “dreams come true ,fairy tales don’t”
I understood everything you talked about. Each analogy was concise and helpful. I’m going to start training arms first on all my chest / back days. And have a special arm only day mixed with some physical therapy based rotator cuff and scapular health exercises.
Witty and interesting. Keep making content! I love knowing the science behind everything and why it makes sense to lift certain ways, though I laugh too much to listen while actively lifting. Keep it up!
The double cable curl with deep stretch for about 15 reps has been life changing. Before my biceps never got DOMS. Now I get DOMS for days in my biceps.
I love how much energy you invest to come up with analogies that aim to explain something completely clear and trivial in the first place. Straining yourself and powering through them at all costs, knowing full well that they are a huge stretch and hardly work at all as an analogy.
Dr Mike, thanks for all your information and videos on RP. It’s been unbelievably helpful to have a reliable fact based resource to go to when educating myself on exercise and hypertrophy
Man, I love the combination of practical, scientific information, the warm tone and my favorite, all of the cursing! That shit is inspiring! Thanks for everything!!

Thanks for the videos Dr, Mike... Super funny and informative. BJJ blue belt here, 5'10 135lbs, and absolute beginner when it comes to lifting weights.. Will definite check out the app for more info. Most disheartening things about listening to all this is the amount of eating needed. Always been a small dude, and with a stomach condition like UC, it sounds daunting to be able to fuel my body enough to be able to grow. But, can't let it stop me from trying
I started a high volume hypertrophy program and found huge success with these arm exercises: barbell curl 5x15 incline db curl 4x8 concentration curl 4x8 skullcrusher 5x15 tricep pressdown 4x8 single arm db extension 4x8 overhead press 10,8,8,6 lat raise 4x8 bent over lat raise 4x8 shrugs 4x10 I do all of this as 1 work out, I superset 1 bicep and 1 tricep exercise, and finish with shoulders. I also do a 6 day a week split : mon/wed/fri - chest and back mornings , leg afternoons, tues/thurs/sat - arm and shoulder mornings, accessory lift afternoons (calves, forearms, abs, etc) To keep the growth stimulus strong: I change grips, switch from barbell to dumbbell or to cables Started this in January at 194lbs - now 202lbs 😁 Lastly, none of the above is as effective if you don't eat or sleep enough. Sleeping and eating enough is my biggest challenge and that blew my mind.. I legit have better lifting discipline than eating or sleeping discipline.. Food for thought!
How's your progress? What's your job? How do you recover from 12 sessions a week? 42 sets on your first of 2 workouts? This seems absurd, unless you're just starting
@@thomas9434 Most of all! I put on considerable size everywhere but my arms saw the most increase in mass - I honestly think it's owed to the volume, slow negatives and supersetting. The pumps are insane at the final working set.
Will comment here Dr.Todd Lee’s arm workout is damn good. At a cable station short tri>lengthened bi>short bi drop down and do lengthened tri>lengthened bi> short bi. Usually doing this eod the results are astonishing! Three basic sets never had to think about arm training again.

I feel like when I work out and I do a chest tricep day. For example. I'd like to knock out 3-4 chest exercises and close it with 2 tricep exercises. I feel like you always talk about the performance/fatigue ratio and how it effects a workout, I find that I can easily throw in triceps at the end of my workout and still get a good tricep workout because it doesn't fatigue me as much to do those exercises. Same thing goes for biceps after a back and biceps day
I love going heavy on EZ bar skull crushers for my triceps but it kills my left elbow. Swapping to higher rep lighter dumbell skulls helped me so much.

Incline bench bicep curls, full range, 6 with each arm, one arm at a time. HUGE ARM GROWTH. I'm sure doing pull-ups didn't hurt either. But he's right about stress-to-fatigue ratios
I've been really focusing on finding lifts and setups that are ideal for me and it's led to some wonky shit but I've found a lot of fantastic lifts that are really working. My favorites so far; Biceps -I set up the glute ham raise in front a cable machine. Allows me to do standing single arm cable preacher curls. I get a huge stretch and constant tension over the force curve. I also open up my stance a lil bit which gives me even more stretch. People looking at me strange when I do this but my biceps are finally growing again!I've got more but this one is a gem Triceps- turn your back to cable machine at its highest point. Cable comes over your shoulder. Arm at your side and just a little out front. Let the weight drag your triceps into a stretch before pressing it. Don't let the elbow drift. Chest- Barbell flat press with higher reps. Start with the pinky on the ring and move it further out each set. Set up really flat with little to no arch. These sets are usually light 135x25. Don't let your shoulders come untucked and really get that stretch. Do like 4 sets of that and holy crap.
Another great video that explains the test subject with minimal brain overload and extra laughs lobbed in, 🙌 Ps Dr Mike and Scott the video guru-chad is there any way these videos could be accessible just like your podcasts, so I could listen to them at work too, I drive lorries and over here its illegal to have RUclips on for obvious reasons, but id still like to listen to the content without the video if thats possible 🙏 greetings from your british colonial overlords over the pond 👋
Tip: Flexing and squeezing your biceps and triceps in similar positions to the workout your trying to do can help you decide whether that workout would be great for you or not. Simply take a lightweight or no weights. Perform the exercise in question squeeze and flex. This works great for other body parts as well.
My favorite movement for triceps is to use a cable pulley behind my back, put my arms over my head and reach back and pull up. I get the best activation and stretch in my triceps ever.
These videos are so lousy and boring that I accidentally find myself watching them for a very long time while they chill me out and soothe my soul.😂Great stuff Mike. Appreciate you.
I have never tried maintenance lifting before. I always just go as hard as my body will allow. Definitely going to try this. In case you're wondering my training split is: Mon Thurs arms Tues Fri chest back traps shoulders Wed Sat legs Is this a bad split?
Finally, I can get rid of my spaghetti arms. I love this channel. I imagine this guy is in the gym critiquing my technique. I achieved much better concentric and negative tension since watching this channel. Thank you from uk 🤟
DAMN - the KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED by this Dude... I really feel like I understand this training thing as a whole by now. And at the same time, he hilarious as Shit!
Would you be open to answer a question? I do: legs (quad focus cause they are small) Upper body Arms / shoulder Repeat 2 times a week. Does that Sound ok? - I follow the deep stretch, 6-8 hard working sets Per muscle group Per session and usually start with compound lifts. I just want feedback on the split?
YES!!! I try to alternate at least once a month. My body relates to sports players bodies as I played all my life. With that said I would love to hear your thoughts on this guys!.
Ultimate arm program, huh? I have 7 words for you, brother: "It's basically an 8 hour arm workout"

Yes, finally a nice 40 mintues of Dr. Mike that I can listen to with delight.
Incline bench bicep curls, full range, 6 with each arm, one arm at a time. HUGE ARM GROWTH. I'm sure doing pull-ups didn't hurt either. But he's right about stress-to-fatigue ratios
I've been really focusing on finding lifts and setups that are ideal for me and it's led to some wonky shit but I've found a lot of fantastic lifts that are really working.
My favorites so far;
Biceps -I set up the glute ham raise in front a cable machine. Allows me to do standing single arm cable preacher curls. I get a huge stretch and constant tension over the force curve. I also open up my stance a lil bit which gives me even more stretch. People looking at me strange when I do this but my biceps are finally growing again!I've got more but this one is a gem
Triceps- turn your back to cable machine at its highest point. Cable comes over your shoulder. Arm at your side and just a little out front. Let the weight drag your triceps into a stretch before pressing it. Don't let the elbow drift.
Chest- Barbell flat press with higher reps. Start with the pinky on the ring and move it further out each set. Set up really flat with little to no arch. These sets are usually light 135x25. Don't let your shoulders come untucked and really get that stretch. Do like 4 sets of that and holy crap.
At this point I am watching Dr.Mike for some regular stand-up comedy skits. Like the random tangents just crack me up.
Man, thank you for your knowledge and entertainment!
Great Content and people!
Keep Up The Good Work!
Another great video that explains the test subject with minimal brain overload and extra laughs lobbed in, 🙌
Ps Dr Mike and Scott the video guru-chad is there any way these videos could be accessible just like your podcasts, so I could listen to them at work too, I drive lorries and over here its illegal to have RUclips on for obvious reasons, but id still like to listen to the content without the video if thats possible 🙏 greetings from your british colonial overlords over the pond 👋
Lets gooo! I swear to god this is so insane
This has just been my main concern lately
Tip: Flexing and squeezing your biceps and triceps in similar positions to the workout your trying to do can help you decide whether that workout would be great for you or not. Simply take a lightweight or no weights. Perform the exercise in question squeeze and flex. This works great for other body parts as well.
My favorite movement for triceps is to use a cable pulley behind my back, put my arms over my head and reach back and pull up. I get the best activation and stretch in my triceps ever.
I recently broke/shattered both of my ankles, so this is the video for me!
No pain, no gains, Dr. Mike
This was HUGE. Thank you RP squad. Super helpful 🙏
7:51 "you know what? ima turn up some joint pain for this muhfucka" I felt that in my core, and my elbows.
These videos are so lousy and boring that I accidentally find myself watching them for a very long time while they chill me out and soothe my soul.😂Great stuff Mike. Appreciate you.
I have never tried maintenance lifting before. I always just go as hard as my body will allow. Definitely going to try this.
In case you're wondering my training split is:
Mon Thurs arms
Tues Fri chest back traps shoulders
Wed Sat legs
Is this a bad split?
Finally, I can get rid of my spaghetti arms. I love this channel. I imagine this guy is in the gym critiquing my technique. I achieved much better concentric and negative tension since watching this channel. Thank you from uk 🤟
DAMN - the KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED by this Dude... I really feel like I understand this training thing as a whole by now. And at the same time, he hilarious as Shit!
I'm sticking with your food analogy and deep frying my preacher curls
Mike is the absolute best.. so cut and dry
Would you be open to answer a question?
I do:
legs (quad focus cause they are small)
Upper body
Arms / shoulder
Repeat 2 times a week.
Does that Sound ok? - I follow the deep stretch, 6-8 hard working sets Per muscle group Per session and usually start with compound lifts. I just want feedback on the split?
😂 No bullshit, Dr Mike makes me laugh harder than any comedian ever has.
Finally someone speaks like I think, and it’s not the educational part of this man
What is going on with the "I like it" gesture with the hands there at 5.20? Cracked me up!
Genius 🧠 No 🐂💩 Straight-up knowledge dominance to the point. 👍
Your unhinged analogies really help me understand things more clearly
Thanks Mike - I'm very much a beginner and I REALLY needed to hear the "Eat, dammit!" section.
👌
I love the comedic value you bring. 😂
Love these longer videos!
YES!!! I try to alternate at least once a month. My body relates to sports players bodies as I played all my life. With that said I would love to hear your thoughts on this guys!.
I love how knowledge of training has been evolved. thank you and you are so funny omg
That comedic intro is why i love this dude lmao
