Alex Leonidas has been on the channel a few times.

Probably one of the most enjoyable workout videos I've ever seen. Massive guy with absolutely zero ego, willing to listen and train with true, disciplined intensity. I honestly feel like if more people were exposed to guys like this, training like this, ego lifting would begin to vanish quite quickly. Dr Mike has changed how I approach training for the better, 7 years deep into my journey.

Can't make this shitt up---the reason why they're injured is they were pushing way too much weight thru a very narrow range of motion. Insufficient time under tension will affect muscle growth but won't get you injured. Too much weight combined with narrow range of motion WILL get you injured.

It's not the tiny weight, it's more of a focus less of the weight, but a combination of proper form, full range of motion, and extended time under tension. Way too many gym bros with shitty form, and when I point it out, they always say the same damn thing, "I'm recovering from an injured shoulder." Can't make this shitt up---the reason WHY they have an injured shoulder is because of shitty form, poor range of motion, and using too much weight.

This guy is a beast great workout and he pushed himself hard. A joy to watch

Whoa! Anyone who doesn’t understand the importance of ‘time under tension’ should watch this. Crazy! 👏🏼

I've been doing that deep stretch technique for my chest, and its a total game changer, especially for incline chest press. I definitely had to lessen the weight to get it down though! Ive always had trouble growing my chest and this works!
