You have an excellent collection! I have been watching over 5 years. I am a 60 year oold female physician, who was an athelete before med school. I credit my maintanence of muscle partially on my establishment of overall muscle in my youth. 5'7 134# caucasian withOUT even any osteopenia. I still challenge myself ( 4 sets of 10 to failure or 1 rep in reserve, including my body weight dead lift) and my goal is to Keep muscle while avoiding joint injury, and Not to lose any weight.
Would you consider another side kick: an atheletic female in her 20s or her 40s Women's exercise magazines are disppointing, and I use Men's but I have some limitations. I always recommend and state your advice is spot on every time! Thank you!

So 4 exercises, couple that with the 6 from the perfect chest workout=10 different exercises per workout And im guessing your upcoming bicep workout will be similar to add to the back workout. Who the hell wants to do 10 different exercises per workout AND workout 6 times a week Like, yes, looking at these individually they look fine, but putting them all together Cmon Jeff, pls dont tell me that i need to do 10 different exercises per workout, while also doing it twice per week. Cmon Jeff.

I started to use resistance bands for the overhead exercises. I tie two together and anchor them above and behind my head. You can adjust the load by leaning, to the point where you can get isometric. It's a lot easier to control a heavy load compared to dumbbells or barbell.
Studies show that it is the position where triceps is most stimulated, but as Jeff said it's still important to train fully contracted and full range of motion as well.

love this series, thanks! quick question - does it matter what order you put the days in just as a personal preference I like to start my schedule with back exercises so I've been doing this Back/Biceps | legs/shoulders | chest/triceps | rest. doesn't seem like it should make any difference but thought it was worth checking
apologies if I posted this in a previous video. I was meaning to ask before but can't remember if I did

How did you change so much Like I thought you hated bench dips because of internal rotation on shoulder and writs rotation and in your last video you also said that you made your chest using Chest fly which you earlier hated saying that there is too much load on elbows Are you going to also change your stand on upright row Now since you are changing your stand on most of your exercises.

Hey Jeff, another great workout. By the way, what is the machine you're using for the Pushdowns and the Kickbacks and the brand bench you're using for the Lying dumbbell extensions It'd be helpful if that info was part of the transcript, I always learn something new from your instruction. Thanks for sharing

I work Arms once a week. 2 exercises. Usually 2-3 sets of 10-16 reps Bi's and Tri's. Forearms once a week. 1-2 exercise 2-3 sets of 20-35 reps. I'm most complimented for my arms. Cable overhead extension and cable kickbacks for Tri's. The occasional rope or v-bar push down. Find what works for you

Hey Jeff. I’ve recently been diagnosed with an inguinal hernia and have seen your other video on working out with a hernia where you mention lifting lighter or using other bracing techniques while lifting. What amounts can you deadlift with your hernia and what bracing techniques do you use

Shouldn't you be concentrating more on the elongated position of the muscle instead of the contracted position Not to say to never focus on the contracted position, but I thought the litterature was shifting towards stretched positions being more hypertrophic than contracted positions.

I have rouble with with the Tricept Pusha away on the cables even when I put so that my arms are high over the head. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I don't really feel it in my tricepts and seem to have trouble with mind muscle connection with that, any tips

As much as I love the series I highly doubt that most people are able to train each muscle group twice a week with this intensity. A workout plan with 3-4 training days a week would be great (and also more realistic for normal people.

You don't need to bend over for cable kickbacks, stand straight with your arm in same position as bent over. Begin supination and end hammer position with slight pause. until failure then 5 3 second negatives. It's murder!

Everyone’s focused on modern methods, but there’s even a book called Banned Spartan Rituals that’s been floating around like some underground secret. Surprised more people haven’t picked up on it.

Thanks Jeff, these perfect workouts are great to get back in routine after being out with an injury. I own several of your products but they’re too intense for where I’m at right now!
