    Its emphasis on the long head, the long head is the only one with tension at the bottom because it attaches to the shoulder and assists in pullover movements

    Or you could do it like I do which is I actually lean my head off the bench and therefore extends the range of motion of the dumbbell without it colliding with my shoulders or skull stretch... I think outside of the box

    With shoulder flexion, the triceps is stretched and longer. With shoulder extension, the triceps is shorter. Just delete this short.

  • @mrdisco8616
    @mrdisco86162 сағат бұрын

    The triceps *long head* is stretched with flexion but it doesn't change that if you want to *train* that position the dumbbell needs to be acting on you in the position. Like an incline curl, sure you stretch the biceps somewhat but the dumbbell isn't contributing much there.

    I have completely swapped out traditional skull crushers for this JM press type movement both with a to machine and dumbbells. It’s been a massive success for me and my elbows feels so much better. They don’t sound like cement grinders anymore.

    Overhead extensions with cable and small curl bar, with grip on the inner angles. Brace stance one foot in front of the other and cable coming about hip height. Lean into the brace so back is at around 45-60* angle. Easiest tricep workout with the elbows feeling fantastic and not stressed

    But isnt the longhead of the tricep also attached to the shoulder, which means that shoulder flexion would work more tricep? Ur basically stretching the longhead of the tricep when moving the shoulder down

    you should do skull crushers on an elevated bench. bc you are right about that and he's right on how there is tension in the bottom there

    People often say that wide grip pulldown = lower lats, narrow = upper lats. In your opinion, is this right or wrong?

    I’ve seen some people close grip lat pull down where they sit really close to the pulley and have more of a back arch and bring the handle down mainly to their chest. Then some people sit further back on the pad. So they’re essentially seated upright, no arch and bring the handle down very low to the upper ab bellybutton area. I kind of prefer the first way but wonder if there is any advantage to one over the other.

    Ben, You are truly the most informed biomechanic oriented youtuber out there and your content is unmatched ! This fly variation is boring as helle to do with a dumbell however, you can really feel it. i would like to have your analysis on the dip exercice and it's efficiency to target the front delt in a lenghtened position.

    See my issue is I can do around 120lbs on the v bar grip but I dont feel my lats?... like I think the v bar lat pulldown is suppose to make your lats wider but I'm not sure if it's doing anything for my body. I lean back with like a reverse c shape and pull to my nipple line and feel nothing. It just feels like I'm pulling the weight even if I pause and try to hold the weight for 3 secs

  • @thomaswhitney9047

    It may better hit the target muscles, but it also creates a greater chance of sheer loading on the spine. Risky. Would not recommend. Definitely just do a chest supported row instead. You'll target the muscles better and reduce risk of sheer loading.

    I think back extensions are better than RDL, because in Back extensions you train hamstring in lengthened position and you don't have to worry about your body to be stable with the ground and in back extensions you whole body is in fixed position. Am I right sir?

  • @KenanTurkiye
    @KenanTurkiye3 күн бұрын

    I get huge upper hamstrings/lower glutes with rdl's. When I do b-stance rdl's the outer upper sides of my hamstrings grown. If anyone is getting any comparable hamstring growth from back extensions I think they may have very little hamstrings to start with, if you get what I mean. Nordic curls are great for hamstrings too, but I can't do more than 5-6 atm.
