Always loved Lee's physique. The symmetry and balance he brought with size too. A true legend
Lee's gotta have some big bones, his arms are bigger than many taller men.
“Don’t pull the dumbbell like you’re trying to start the lawnmower!” 😂😂😂
Classic Lee 🤣🤣
Start the lawnmower
@@nycwizrd8348 Make sure you yank it really hard to work your traps as wel.
He’s hilarious
I'm guilty of starting the lawn mower
I literally just came back from backtraining, Im a 53 year old Bodybuilder and since ive always trained heavy, i decided to give my nervous system a break today. I trained a lot less heavy, but contracted and squeezed the shit out of my muscles. I already know my back is gonna hurt tomorrow. Lee is right. FEEL the back. If you lose the contraction, go lighter.
Good advice man. I see all the same mistakes from people yi described. Lawnmower reference almost made me spit my coffee up. Never used to get sore after back workout, do now. Using good form and feeling is helluva lot more important than going heavy with shitty form. Godbless
it took me too long to learn to drop the weight. i kept wanting to go heavier and heavier. perfect example, i was doing incline db curls with 45's and very clearly not using great form, delts getting in there, too much swinging.. did not get much pump. i switched to 20's, STRICT form, and ROAST my biceps now.
A lot of bodybuilders keep emphasizing that. Even Arnold said don't focus on the weight, focus on the muscle. Get that hypertrophy going. Maximize physique and gain some strength. Go heavy if you don't care about physique and want to maximize strength gains.
No music, just Lee talking calmly. I have never seen Lee so calm. Omg how amazing and informative 🙏
Hello Lee, my name is Harold Strickland I am 69 years old now, when I was in the 9th grade we had a weight lifting contest against all junior high schools in West Virginia,the first place winners receive a 1 year membership to the YMCA here in Charleston WV, the after the contest I found that I won the contest all hands down, I trained at YMCA till they closed 10 years later, the Charleston news paper was up in the weight room wanting to to do the bench press for him, I was warming up with 225 lbs with 20 easy reps, I have the picture of that day on my wall at home, look at it daily. After the old YMCA closed down, they reopen the new YMCA, it wasn't the same, I went to other local gym, kept training till I lost my job at that time, so I had to get a low paying job, at that time I couldn't train any more due to low wages, I postponed my train till about 43 years later, after I retired from United Dairy, that's when I started training at home, that was in September 2016, now I am training hard as ever, I will train till my last breath, weight training always been my greatest passion through out my life. I really appreciate all your videos Lee,
I all muscle groups twice a week, each body part has a 3 day rest,that works great for me, I am seeing gains every week now, my max bench press back the day was 300Ibs, I would to see me benching that heavy again one day, it takes years of hard work and dedication, we all are gladiators and warriors Lee 👍👍
Lee is on a whole other level to his competition. I love hearing Jay Cutler describe the first time he saw a truly enormous bodybuilder and how that literally shocked the shite outta him. That bodybuilder was Lee Priest! Jay said that literally NO ONE compared to Lees size, definition and aesthetics. All these decades later and Lee STILL looks a hundred times better than anyone you’ve ever seen down your gym or walking about! Lee you are a @#£%in LEGEND mate!
NOT only did JAY cutler say that about him, but RONNIE COLEMAN said LEE is the defeat that hurts him the most 🔥 🔥
Lee has comedian’s personality and is a riot but his workout advice is thorough and well thought out.
We simply call that personality Australian. Where they take the piss, have good humor as well as tell it like it is
@@lollipop84858 i dig it
I love these training videos by Lee!
I've always enjoyed watching Lee Priest train. Absolutely spot-on perfect form: every exercise, every rep.
Keep these coming, as long as Mr. Priest is willing, 0 BS, and nothing to prove, just telling it how it is!! THANK YOU!!
Aussie Legend. No bullshit. Kinda intimidated by the face tatts Lee. Dude has always been symmetrical & huge for his stature, polite & forthcoming. Thanks Lee. Go the Victa 2-Stroke mate😁👍🤘
My goodness.... What a truly sincere genuine guy u are lee! The difference in someone whos done it all and has nothing to prove to anyone.... U sir are a credit to bodybuilding regardless of titles trophy's dimensions...... Genuine heart felt good advice..... Why havnt u been on here years ago!! Thank u.
Biggest back i ever got was 4 simple exercises. pull ups, rack deadlifts, dumbell row and shrugs.
Love Lee's honesty and sincerity, but also love that he still trains and doesn't look like a twig like many of the pros that give up competing...
Thanks Lee, what a treat. Keep them coming.
Love the video. Lee has always been humble and no BS. The training video is very helpful!
Absolutely spot on. It drives me nuts when I see guys leaning so far back on these movements. The back should be straight. Same with the rows. So many people are so upright that all they are doing are shrugs.
Around 7:32 you can tell he forgot where he was for a moment and was just completely in the moment, enjoying the feeling of his muscles contracting.
My most favorite bodybuilder ever, and I like how he doesn't beat around the bush and straight talk
Excellent advice. Thank you so much!
Lee was always my favorite bodybuilder. Really cool to hear his insights, thanks for posting this!
Very well done. I like the way Lee does these videos. Love his calm, cool, direct approach. He is a excellent teacher and
Communicates very well.
Great advice Lee. Can’t wait to see more.😊
gaining muscle doesn't always require heavy weights....what it *does* require is intensity.
Great video Lee. Love this emphasis on technique and mind to muscle connection. “None of this bullsh*t” ☺️😍 Love it!
Magic thanks for the video very helpful!
Nice Lee, a great series of videos. Thankyou for your input.
Thanks much for this one Lee. It's a great video on the proper technique to use when training the back. This was an "old school" lesson in correct training from one of the greatest bodybuilders ever. 💪🏆 MUSCLE UP!
What a freakin legend you are Lee!
Love these videos you put out and they are always so solid.
Thank you for all your ideas
What great advice. Thanks Lee
Priceless tips from the man who been there and done it. Cheers Lee 💪🏻
3:43 These small tips are so good. Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing, Lee. This stuff is so valuable to everyone trying to get a little more technical with building that ass up.
Kinda fell into this on accident. Had no idea Lee had newer videos out. Awesome video.
Thanks mate, great vid.
Good advice Lee thank you so much for sharing the knowledge you have learned throughout the years
Amazing Video, thanks 🙏
Love your work Lee. Thank you
Thank you Lee. Much appreciated. 👍
This man your watching is a legend!
Like Jay Cutler says Lee at 20 years old was a FREAK!! He was insane The absolutely best arms of all time ...look up the picture of Lee priest side tricept shot with Tom platz I used to have that on my wall for years!
thank you Lee my respect to you a true legend
An excellent presentation. Thanks.
The lat pull down tip to squeeze the lats first and then pull has been very helpful, thank you sir.
Awesome explanations brother 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Lee always sounds like he is about to drop dead from a heart attack
Lee your one cool dude😎you definitely don’t have a shit back lol.. and you will always be the king of arms! Back in the 80’s you were my hero and quite frankly still are.. nobody had triceps like yours
Thank you for this video
Thanks for the advice Lee!
Great instructional video Lee!💪😎👍
pure gold mate
Thanks for taking the time to post this content for us to learn from. Can you do one on BICEP, specifically dumbbell work and the various angles, (curling up angled toward pec, curling straight up toward bicep, curling further away angled past shoulder, etc) as well as supinated and neutral grip? I really liked your tip on db flys and angling the db's together at the end for that squeeze. Finding little nuggets like that really helps me hit new levels. thanks, lee. and fuck any haters.
Always a good video with Lee! I’d like to see how you train rear delts!
Love Lee's Channel and the no bullshit
This is some of the best advice
I appreciate the help 💯✝️✅
Thanks Lee❤
Excellent video Lee!
Nice guy an straight to the point , no BS.
Lee is the man. More please
Gives so much great advice and I’ve followed every thing he’s spoke about ive learnt so much from the preacher preist he’s has me laughing my head off with some of his comments this guy is 1 of the legends in the sport but there is nobody I’n the sport of bodybuilding has his character I personally believe no one the sport can come close to lee fur his honestly and straight talking jay cutler speaks so highly of the crazy oz back here in South Wales myself and my buddies talk about you lee alll the time you are a another’ level from watt you achieved on bodybuilding and your even more of a legend from yr utube videos 👌👌👌👌
Brilliant advice lee thanks
Awsome video Lee.. And Dude your forearms are still ridiculously awesome!!
Amazing advice thanks Lee!
Best three bicep and tricep exercises in your opinion
Brilliant advice
Lee, in my opinion, is the most underrated pro of all time. He should have placed much higher, and more often, than he did when competing.
tnk you Lee

Let’s all talk Lee into a come back he’s still got it!
Definitely a guy I hope to train with one day! Great fucking video Lee
Some people confusing rack pulls with Romanian deadlift.
the man, top bloke, so i was right all along just as i do them all. some people just don't get it, i never believed in mind muscle connection before, i do now, 8 years in. if ya dont feel it, it aint working.
ty for the tip about squeezing the lats when you pull the lat bar
Thanks priest. I learn a lot from your way of getting your point across. “You don’t need to train your ego, you need to train your back”
This is solid information
Helpful video.
The Back is tough to develop - seems that way for everyone. It does come down to genes - at least it plays a big factor.. I have difficulty connecting with it. As you suggested, I do use lighter weight and also emphasize the stretching and contracting. I actually stopped training my Arms altogether because my torso was struggling!...LOL. I do find with certain exercises I can connect better. I find the Incline Bench DB rows helpful. I also do versions of that with cables - like a pulldown facing the machine while seated on an incline bench. Also BB rows I connect with well - Pronated/Supinated. These days I can't do a lot of pullups. On a good day 5, with good form ( squeeze at the top and slow on the negative). Lately, I would superset pullups with pulldowns since I can't do many reps of pullups which helps. Lastly, for years, experienced lifters would say to 'lead with your elbows'. I never quite understood this until recently and it helps.
If you have a 'Shit Back' Lee, we don't have Backs at all!!....LOL. You're too Humble!!
A practical man 🤘
"Don't start jerkin' it."
Good advice when training back from Lee Priest.
Lee seems like one of the chillest dudes u could meet
Nice video mate👌can you do a full body workout vid, thanks legend.🤙
Imagine being Lee's neighbor and being able to drop over for some OG training with the hall of famer! Excellent
Thank you mr priest your a boss
Great video
Thanks for this Lee. Simple makes sense advice. Tired of a million new ways to do this and that videos. I'm 52, been bodybuilding for 35 years. I've reduced my rowing range and locked my muscles in before any back work now. And it is the best it has ever been.
Lee you amazing 🎉❤
A good way to understand how to properly dumbbell row is to go do some sets on the old school hammer strength low row - the machine completely takes your arms out of it and really makes you kind of SWING your lats backwards.
rack pulls goated
Great video Lee.Very helpful.Can u do a vid on chest next please mate.
Good on you Lee.
You also had perfect reps Lee. Loved seeing your training in the battle for the Olympia videos when you trained at Worlds in Cali.
