    needed to hear this. I always hated squats, but never took them off my mesos because it was hard and theyre for REAL men. Finally hit a breaking point 4 weeks into my cut and could not do it anymore. Upped my other quad/ham exercises and they honestly give me better tension, burn, and pump, with way less fatigue.

    Hey Dr. Mike! Here’s a quick dinosaur update from your readings as a child. Seismosaurus is now considered to be just a very large and old diplodocus. Nowadays, some massive titanosaur species like Argentinosaurus is considered to be the heaviest (basically the largest). Ultrasaurus isn’t known from much and may therefore also be assigned to another species in the future. Supersaurus is a valid taxon, but just not nearly close to being considered the biggest anymore. :)
    And congrats on 1 million!! 🎉

    That hack squat story is me with bulgarian split squats.
    Finally found the right foot position, learned to minimize quad involvement and drive straight through the hips, and it's an absolute glute monster movement now.

  • @TheBaumcm
    @TheBaumcm Před 5 měsíci +13

    Your channel has single handedly upped my game in the gym. Consistently hitting stimulus that indicates I’m way closer to failure and I’m seeing a lot more improvement as a result. Love the focus on an individual, trial and error, approach and how the body can even adapt over time necessitating a shift. Good to know, as a relative noob, that I’m taking the right approach to selecting exercises that work the muscle smarter and therefore harder and I’m not alone in getting “bored” as I progress.
    Biomechanics are one of my necessary considerations for fatigue. I’m a 5’2” female so a lot of chest and back machines are set way too wide for my shoulders and cause pain without actually targeting the muscle. I also have to modify laterals because my arms are really long for my size, like gorilla swinging long, and the weight has too much leverage on the joint.

    This is a very important video, specially for beginners, since, when you start, you don't know much, and you sure as shit don't know if you are doing stuff wrong or how you know the session was effective. The proxies are what you want to feel while doing the exercise or after.

    I've been following your advice and my strength is... EXPLODING through the roof. I was always a little scrawny kid I never thought I'd be able to bench 260 or deadlift 500. The gains are ridiculous I hit an entire new level where I'm a) not injured b) no longer plateauing. I'm seeing a linear improvement in strength that was inconceivable 12 months ago. Who knows where it ends but dang, you turned this skinny nerd into a tank. It's awesome. All natty too.
    I never thought in a million years I'd bench more than 225, it didn't seem physically possible but the correct lifting actually works. Who knew.

    Yo! A million subs! Congrats!
    On the topic of this video though, there seems to be a fad in the French fitness community with trainers selling "morphological" analyses in order to recommend exercises to do or don't to bring up certain body parts. For example, they would tell someone they have a certain biceps insertion compared to the length of their arm and forearm, therefore they should do this exercise instead of this one.
    Any thoughts?

I used to stick with movements like preacher curls, front squats, planks, and some others because I was young and new to lifting and hadn’t yet realized that you DON’T NEED TO DO THEM. I’ve finally snuffed out those movements that I just can’t stand, or that just take so much mental effort to step into that I can’t move onto the next one.
