wait where is the D movements?
Mike is blinking with 100% mind muscle connection
Full Rom
Great to see you working with Dr Mike.
@@filabilaand full REM
đ đ
Blinks with his whole face
The clip of Eric hitting lat pulldowns with Mike is so crazy. Seeing the red flushed colour of the back, you just know the pump was insane.
Looks like straight out of anatomy book.
I was literally about to write the same thing.
It's like those videos where the editor highlights the muscles that are active.
Apparently, working out properly saves the need of a highlighting editor.
The more you know.
Tren
He looks like a body world exhibit... freaky definition
Mike sitting there wondering âwhat does this huge man think âinertâ means, and should I tell him heâs wrong?â
bro pointed out the exact point in the video I just watched
I swear đ«đ but someone really should tell him !! lol
Came to the comments as soon as he said it lolololol
He also said agreeance later onđ
He uses so many words mistakenly lol he should really stay in his lane
Looked like Dr Mike was blinking âIâm so high I canât speakâ in Morse code at one point.
Dude youâre literally my favorite body builder.
I hope you get your pro card, you deserve it.
Awesome move partnering up with Greg as well.
Greg is an amazing person, just really misunderstood.
facts
Wait, MF doesnât have a pro card? Thats bonkers
bro fav line âmilking the stretch â
Absolutely love both of you guys' channels and exercise breakdowns. Its funny how Eric goes into SO much detail and takes 5mins to explain, Dr Mike does his in 45secs. Short, sharp, concise, love it. Eric, you need to follow his lead when doing these kind of vids. When doing your solo training tips and tech vids, go to town on the explanations.
Eric âErgonomicâ Janicki
Eric âEfficaciousâ Janicki
That ending just went wild đ
Eric's fav back exercise is a chest supported row; Mike's is an unsupported row. Would've been nice to hear some discussion over this.
Both great movements I think it comes down to what works best for YOU as far as mind/muscle connection because everyone is different
It makes sense eric is a huge guy he is more limited by his lower back because the lever is longer so he eliminates that problem.
â@@AriasPBthis and basic differences in anatomy
@@thor498 exactly!!
It also depends on your goals. If you want an excersice that targets the mid back/lats and also the lower back you can do unsupported, but if you prefer to only target your midback or lats and not let your lower back be a limiting factor you do chest supported.
I personally do both. Unsopported on one back day, then supported on the next back day, to make sure I isolate my back muscles while also having a strong lower back, because a strong core is important
Chest - Flat Dumbbell press, Flat Dumbbell Fly
Back - T bar Row, Hammer Strength Lat Pulldown
Shoulders - Seated dumbbell Press, Super ROM Lateral Rise (Dr Mikes)
Don't have time in the gym for 3. Also the cable machine is ALWAYS very busy.
Agree with you on the hammer strength pulldown machine, it gives a ton of stretch and really an underrated back builder. People usually use the lat pulldown or the cable station so they usually ignore this amazing machine
Great video guys, appreciate you both
I follow Dr Mike (on YT.. Not literally.. Yet) and this is one of the more useful videos I've seen. Great channel! You two are awesome
Awesome! Thank you!
The last few minutes of this video were GOLD đ
as a noobie to the gym i do like the lat pull down excersize's, started using fly machine a few weeks ago as well. just feeling out what works for me then start building my own little routine, watching these videos to help me understand muscle structure and building more., Thanks for your time gentlemen

Eric is breathing into the mic with 100% mind muscle connection

LOVED all of it. Eric my fav BB since Lee Priest
@eric janicki amazing video a link to part one would be great and the same for lower boddy - wish list .. greetings from Switzerland

This was a great video! What does Eric think inert means? đ Thanks for creating the content gentlemen!
Eric looks amazing
I also love doing heavy controled lateral raises just enough to get 6 reps and then crank out as much long length partials as I can, it might look like I'm ego lifting but that is what genuinely makes me feel like I'm really working in the stretched position
Seeing mike say the incline DB was surprising, I swear by it especially if barbells just donât click with you, and you can do them at basically any gym
Chest
Benchpress
Incline dumbell press
Cable flyes
Back
Deadlift
Chest supported row
Lat pulldown
Shoulder
Lateral raises
Overhead press
Rear delt flye
Deadlift isnât a back exercise đ
Best bar for benching for chest gains is a Buffalo/ Yukon bar, the stretch is awesome!
For the machine press, rather than a foam roller I grab a step from the group fitness studio and chuck that on the seat. It's about the same width as the back rest and about 3 inches thick so I can really get a deep stretch.
Eric.... Conversation tip - talk about one thing, let your conversation partner talk. Tic for tac. Just to give some better flow.
Also, love your stuff man. You're awesome. Mike is amazing.
Flat bench, flys, pullups, rows, sh press, front/ lateral raise
Being disabled, I need to change up my workouts a lot..
Top 3 chest for me:
1. Wide, unilateral chest press
2. Incline chest press
3. Chest flyes
Top 3 back for me:
1. Bent-over cable row
2. Lat pulldown
3. Slow eccentric deadlifts
Corect Video Eric Olympea
It's funny a lot of the time when Eric is talking about training I feel like he's talking straight out of my own mind we have a lot of the same thoughts
A sacrificial comment for the algorithm gods.
Engagement
@@Horsegirl1893 Of course đđ€
Eric, we need a video on how tf we're supposed to sleep after getting jacked. I don't mean falling and staying asleep, I mean every morning I wake up and I can't move my shoulders. How do I avoid sleeping on my side/ arms? It's really starting to affect my life.
20:50 1. Incline smith 2. Converging chest press and 3. flys
Since I come from religion of calisthenics:
1.Weighted pullup - all grips, perfect form, mega stretch at the bottom
2.Weighted row on gymnastic rings same deal as first - just horisontal.
3.Side delts get ignored đ
Shoulders
Super rom laterals
Bottom range side laterals(John Meadows style..RIP
Upright cable rows
Mike your best exercises seems to be more tailored to yourself while Dr. Mike best exercises are better for general public. Very nice video anyway thanks for creating great content!
Mikes hamstrings look awesome in this
You guys have to try a newtech standing sidelat machine
That woman bodybuilder looks absolutely frightening đ±
"medial" delt doesn't exist. "medial" refers to the mid-line of the body. It's the lateral or side delt.
Why are people flaming him for not knowing what inert means? The definition of inert is âlacking the ability or strength to moveâ. As far as Iâm concerned, heâs using the term correctly.
I voted for Dr. Mike on the legs. But I'm Team Eric on this video. đȘ
I really like db incline curls for back. For chest I prefer bayesian curls. Shoulders is a tricky one. I'll say preacher curls.
I don't think bro knows what 'inert' means lol
Stop saying inert. You donât know what it means.
đ
I think he means innate
@@mattdavies6503 agreed.
Mike is not a huge proponent of flys. This is fun to watch. đđ€Ł
Win in Vancouver
If youâre both gonna sit in awkward chairs like this in a gym of all places, you should have a protein shake in the cup holder
being out of breath sitting in a chair and talking is crazy. I hope bro is healthy
He just finished a workout I think
Obviously got the pump on before talking. Look at him. Christ đ
I have always thought that. He's such a chill guy but I always worry about that breathing.
He could also have a deviated septum. I have one and causes issues sometimes while talking for a while
I'm checking budget and tickets etc to see if going to Vegas in October is something I could do, I'm in oregon so I'm not too far away and would be amazing to get to meet yall
Letâs see how long Mike spaces out when Eric goes on with a long explanation, like last time
Eric, you don't have to run through the exercise picks "really quick." I'd watch the video even if it was an hour. đȘ
Dr. Mike out here doing every other show/ CZcams channel/ podcast except responding to Greg Doucette.
will there be a vid like this of top 3 bis and tris?
add calf and forearm too loll
I wish you had some generic programs that you sold for those that might not be able to afford custom programs. I bet yours would be badass.
This is a constructive criticism, Eric...
You explain way too long a simple exercise.
Take a shot every time you hear ergonomic
đ„
11:36 mike lookin devious
It's crazy what steroids can do! Nice Video. Thanks.
barbell OHP has given be the most delt growth even though it's not "science based"
two bodybuilders on prep great energy fun watch đ
đ„đ„
đđđđđđđđ.... the last 3 minutes đđđđđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
pullovers for back; I really love the stretch it gives on the first set. its like getting a massage but while lifting
Cable lateral is it for me I even do it on pull days to hit it 3/4 times a week
Someone wake up Dr Mike.
Rear delts definitely need direct work, front delts I agree, you need none
How do you progressively overload shame?
what grips do you use in the lat pulldown demonstration?
Respect Romania Eric Olympea Gym Vacantele Campionatul Romania
Cable Fly's,
Dumbless Fly's,
Side lateral raises cable,
rear delt dumble fly's,
cable flex row
, pulldown
don't forget the gorilla grip double fist
Deficit on pec deck? Eric. If you don't have that Arsenal Incline Press would a deficit on the back work?
Why not on the lowest setting for the Egyptian cable laterals?
This is a really dumb comment and I hope you don't mind me calling it out, but for your text I believe it should be "Form Cues" instead of "Form Queues". Awesome video and great information though, thanks for sharing!
I'm gonna be that guy and say that "queues" was not the word he was looking for.
I'll second that and add the correct word: cues
Back: neutral grip pull ups, one arm dumbell row, deadlifts
Deadlifts are a bad back exercice.
I thought bro moved out of his phase of saying âErgonomicâ every other sentence, then he started talking about back and dropped 5 a minute
I like to use versa grips for the D. Make sure grip strength is never the limiting factor and I can really keep going to D failure
12:15 double mike talking
Bro is out of breath the whole time hes talking lol
Iâd avoid this whole âavoiding peak contractionâ talk, go for it, get it
Word of the day: inert
"until your forearms cramps and then what are you supposed to do"...Mike has heard of versa grips hasn't he?
@6:16 just use the cambered bar for Incline...
