that strap tip for front squats was especially just so helpful, ty so much!

Great video mike really good work love the tips i knew a few of these already but some i didn't know great job.

This was a helpful vid, especially adding a light dumbbell to the cable lateral raise! Thanks Mike!

I've been training for 20+ years and some of these tips are even new to me. NICE ONE!

The presentation is simple and clever - a fantastic instructor.

The hang warmup is a terrific way to start your session. .I'm 68, and it has done everything he talks about. Decompresses spine, straightens shoulders and improves grip.

after how long? I've been doing this the past 1-2months and my right shoulder is still lower : p and been doing it a few min per session - although only twice a week so far, will be doing it 4times a week, injured my knee so skipping leg workouts

The cuffs work great for lateral raise on cable, love them

The elbow hangers look like a game changer for working out the core. Thanks !!!

one additional trick for front squats is a PNF stretch of the lats to enable yourself to raise your elbows higher. Good tips Mike :)

You have my dream body mike. Thank you for posting these videos. It’s really inspirational for me.

Love the tips and tricks! Really helpful, thanks Mike :)

Been following mike since 2017, miss these kind of og workout videos

Taking test like Mike will get you the fastest gains - saved you having to watch 👌🏻

Great video Mike! Cuffed Lateral Raises have been a gamechanger and 3.45 is spot on, much prefer setting up Bulgarians with a foam pad on a barbell a bit lower down, far more comfortable! 👍

Great content!! A load of really useful nuggets here! 💪

Love all your content but this is still my favorite style!

This was very helpful. Thank you, Mike!

Excellent tips & tricks. Thanks Mike

This was really helpful. I dont use weights much, but I know a ton of my gym peeps will benefit from this. Thank you Mike.

11:07 is the moment I saw the shy young Mike that got awkward or insecure before the camera. Good that you haven't changed that much with all the success that you've had. Good video.

Thanks for the very useful tips. Awesome!!!

Greetings from California. Thanks Mr. Michael Thurston for filming & sharing these excellent training & lifestyles vlogs. Inspirational. Happy holidays from our channel. Congrats Champion of England.

Thank you soooooo much, I'm a boomer newbie and this is sooo helpful! I'll reach my third month of training and I'll definitely use some of these techniques!!!!!!❤❤❤❤

Love the content! Valuable information right there. Question, where did you get those training pants?

As much as I enjoy the travel vlogs and activity vlogs, I miss Mike centric videos like this. Do more

Mike really emphasises on injury prevention 👍

Amazing advice Mike!

Thanks for the tips Mike, have you got a preference on the ab straps you use? What brand are they in the video?

These are great insights thanks, G

Those thumbs up at the end were super wholesome Thank you for the tips, Sir!

Very useful ideas you gave thanks 🙏🏻

Good ideas, thanks for sharing.

Thanks my man this video helps a lot!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Good video, I have already been using cuffs for quite a while with good results. As well.as delts I use them for pecs, lats, bis and Tris too.

This vid reminded me of the early days of this channel before all the ultra lifestyle flexy stuff

I've got one. When using the smith machine, place some blocks or pads under each of the arms then load the plates. Then you can start your set with a heavy weight but you aren't at the weakest position. When you push up the blocks just fall away and you do your set. Only needed when it's really heavy.

Pure tips! Thank you!!

Absolute masterclass on gym tips

Thank you for the upload, I learnt a lot from this one video you clearly have passion and knowledge and you explain it in lay mans terms, I train most days, but not many gains but am going to try it your way.. Cheers Paz

Question: Are those Harbinger Cuffs you have for ankles or wrists?? I looked on Amazon and Harbinger and all I see are ankle cuffs. There are several other manufacturers, but I've used Harbinger gloves for years and I really like their stuff.

any tips for shorter stature adults (under 5 ft) please. theres some equipment im not able to use as im a foot smaller every one else there are some i try my best with the lowest adjustments. I get a pump in the end with what can use of a 30 min workout. love your videos.

A lot of helpful tips in this video.

thanks

I’m convinced this guy made this video just to show us how big his muscles are. Good god!

Top video Mike.

Uncle Mike a legend 💪🏼

Original goat advice 💪🏻

You think like an engineer. It's so refreshing to see this in the gym.

Hey MT ,, what style of nikes are those ........ gotta grab a pair

Good tips!

While stretching is generally great and especially dead hangs have a lot of benefits, they are not at all recommended before a strength workout. Stretching before a strength workout can slightly fatigue your muscles and tendons and lead to worse workout performance and even to injuries.

These were great. Definitely going to buy the wrist cuffs for doing the shoulder exercises, I always feel like my form is a little awkward and this could help also the ab sling will work great in my gym the 2 minute hang before and after the workout, I need to stretch out and the split squat trick with the barbell and pad. I always feel off when using the bench, something a little lower makes sense thanks

I always think it’s quite ingenious when guys on gear don’t at least acknowledge the fact why they have the physique. Of course hard work, genetics and discipline always play a part and nothing he said was incorrect. It’s just a half truth. Love mikes content thou

Yeah, he probably convinced himself that what he takes is not steroids but only creatine-like normal stuff. What we can't deny is that he takes PED, what kind of stuff we will never know.

The word you’re looking for is “disingenuous.” What’s actually pathetic is how people come on to videos like this claiming “PEDs” when they truly have no idea. A) for how consistent and long Mike’s been training, his physique is 100% achievable. Genetics play the biggest role there, and he has great genetics. B) even if he is on something, who cares? He still had to work his ass off to get to where he’s at. People who make these comments are too lazy to put in the work so they just automatically blame PEDs because it’s easier than being disciplined for 15+ years.
