what do those numbers mean

Wait so bench press was a meme all along, but pullups for bicep development isn't?

EMG studies not even once

BP is not a meme. It's the best for gradual progression. While it does not have as high direct stimulation for the pecs, gradual progression trumps higher isolation everytime.

I didn't read the article, but pull ups and chin ups are great for bicep development

Whats there to not understand you faggot dyel cum slurper. You can do your curls all you want but in the long run you will hit a plateau with with curls. You have much more wiggle room with weighted pull/chinups. Longer gains = more gains

Not him, but yeah isolation exercises should be an afterthought really. Compound lifts are way better for symmetry and the even development of muscle groups

Anecdotally I can confirm the barbell OHP hits your upper traps quite hard for some reason if you use light weight. Maybe harder than shrugs. Anyone knows the biomechanics behind it?

Hanging leg raises? Obliques?

Flat dumbell press masterrace checking in

Feels good man

Yep. I like to try to hold them for as long as possible while moving my hips back and forth. Really hits the obliques. Looks kinda gay but whatever

>while moving my hips back and forth. Really hits the obliques.

Really? Imma try it out because I feel more abs than obliques. Just curious because HL landed in the top 3 oblique exercises for mean activation

Yeah dude, you can hit them during planks doing the same movement

Those are called windshield wipers and not hanging leg raises

Do you shrug at the top? I do it instinctively.

Been doing this on the side lately but going over 70lbs feels sketchy as fuck even with good get into position guides from Athleanx

Shame I really wanna press 100 one day

Currently cutting, but I still can rep out 95s with no issues. Honestly BP in itself feels sometimes sketchy when I overthink it. like "what if this weight falls on my teeth?".

Use the scott hermann way of getting them bitches up. Let your legs do most of the work.

It took me a while to figure it out though. Looks easier than it is, especially with heavy weight. The trick is to let the weight rest as long as possible when you swing back and then press it up.

Thanks for the video the technique I've been using is youtube.com/watch?v=v8y8dQZMJXw

Which is similar but kicks them up to your chest before leaning back instead of one fluid movement. Will try Scott's next session.

So all you need for a well developed back is some kind of pull up, dumbell row and rear delt flies.

I knew cable rows were designed for dyels

The actual meme is that people think that bench press and dips alone are enough for the front delt, even though I just saw a study that the activation of front delt is nowhere near the same in comparison to a OHP.

You gotta OHP you faggots

Or get the best of both worlds with incline bench. As it is, front delts tend to be overdeveloped anyway- every gym bro has overdeveloped front delts. It's the lateral and rears that take extra attention.

t. a dyel

if you don't feel your fucking chest working and can't actively contract your chest against weight, you are leaving 90% of chest gains on the table

i trained a guy once who could bench 225 for 10 but couldn't do DB overhead press with 20lb dumbbells, and couldn't press the empty bar at all. Took a few weeks but he still only managed to press 85lbs before we were done working together

nothing. it's bs for people that need to watch an episode of rick and morty in order to know that a bicep curl works the biceps

>REEEEEEEEE I don't know what torque, mean and peak activation stands for REEEEEEEEEEE

So in other words lat pull downs, incline presses, barbell rows, full ROM squats are all for skinny fat DYELS?

Weighted Pullups and Dips BTFO out Curls and Extensions in upper arm gains?!

Nice

EMG studies are mostly accurate tho they just have limitations like for example averages won't be as accurate as peak MVC on exercises where the contraction is intense but short but the ROM is long and time consuming.

EMG is accurate as you can see generally what you'd expect for example squats work your quads very hard but not hams, deadlift hams very hard but not quads or ohp works shoulders very hard as it should but not much chest, dips work chest very hard but not much shoulder.

how hard your muscle contracts is literally the best measure of efficacy, probably second to muscle stretch

>won't be as accurate as peak MVC on exercises where the contraction is intense but short but the ROM is long and time consuming.

Kinda why tricep kick backs always appear in ther list, because of the short intense contraction but still most people stay away from it because it does fuck all for their tri development

emg studies never work doe

>Bro if it doesn't isolate your chest you're missing gains
>Bro dips and bench don't activate your chest
Also wtf 90% of gains? Literally a number you pulled out of your ass. Beginners should focus on compound lifts then add upon them. Seasoned lifters are obviously gonna add isolation exercises as they feel the need

I hate curls and love dips. My arms look much bigger after dips and chins vs any curl/skullcrusher day too. Love em.

That's good, you're supposed to shrug to prevent impingement.

What the fuck are you talking about. You can’t not use your pecs when you bench you fucking moron.
I bet you think you need to “activate” your glutes to squat. This fucking board man

You're stabilizing a load overhead, wich makes use of the traps, not sure why you feel them more on light sets tho, i feel them way more on jerks and push presses.

just fucking tell me which exercises to avoid

What do you mean you cant contract your chest during a BP? The chest is responsible for adducting your arm (slapping or hugging motion of the arm) Which happens during a BP. If your chest didnt work, you'd be using the same weight as on tricep extensions

I wonder if t bar row is good

Wait, i should be able to bench more than i can lift on tricep extensions?
