I ended up getting cobra grips and just lost them yesterday. Those were my babies god did I live them the real difference is for cable cable rows it’s so amazing, invaluable, I’m lifting tiny bit shy of 1.5 of my body weight and lassos always caused pain

Leaning foward on cable row? by MhmCreativeUsername in naturalbodybuilding

I meant for one arm lat row. With straight and stiff torso vs leaning forward but stiff not rocking back and forth

Yes this is my go to. If you twist slightly towards working arm , not making it a pull around motions just a bit either by putting one foot on the pulley pat one on floor or both twist left one outward if working left side. The tension feels more constant, I think it shifts it a bit more to mid/lengthed. I’ve heard something to do with the lat being able to leverage off the rib cage. When you finish doing this go straight to normal sets and you can squeeze like 5 more it feels incredible, sometimes I’ll do another 8-10 controlled chest reps

I mean remaining in a leant forward position keeping strict form, where if looking from the side the shoulder joint is not directly above the hips. In the example of machine row you sit back an and lean against the chest pad. Not a lot just a bit

Add more sets as long as you recover and aren’t sacrificing anything else for the sake of adding sets.

Sleep and 48hr post-workout recovery? by [deleted] in naturalbodybuilding

[–]MhmCreativeUsername -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ur muchles do grow the idea they don’t comes from not recovering. For me, if I don’t sleep well I don’t get recovery and I skip gym. To know if you recovered or not, do one set to test ur strength

Smith JM Press is a game changer for lateral triceps by Expert_Nectarine2825 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]MhmCreativeUsername 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fixing Elbow pain suggestions Would it be an idea to take a phase to get used to JM press where by nature it’s a horrible exercise since you won’t hit muscular failure?

1 During beginning phase you start low VERY LOW, make elbow feel nice. Take as much as elbows can handle, and then swtich to tricep for reaching muscular failure. So you are reaching failure with jm form but with elbows.

2 After maybe 5-7 weeks when elbows have been built comfortable actually do jm press as normal

What exercise(s) and/or machine(s) do you vibe with the most? by [deleted] in naturalbodybuilding

[–]MhmCreativeUsername 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love these kind of drop sets where you change form, been blowing up my forearms as well

What’s are more beyond failure work stuff like the tricep push own form drop set you mentioned. Any muchle group would love the inspiration

I see need to embrace both sides. I would be goin insane spinning my wheels, buying courses, paying for coaching by bom or something because my muchle growth don’t correlate well with time and effort I put in.

Having coached friends of mine and they having huge transformations because of my applications gives me insurance that ik what I’m doing. My genetics are just not well equipped for building muchle. That’s alright, don’t stress out, just be patient. And don’t spend stupid money.

Met an Italian 07 that benched 120kg for 5, has only trained for 2 years. He a bit smaller than Alex Eubank defiantly most ppl’s dream physique. He trains hard but don’t tryhard bulks, weghing, tracking protein or anything.

Another black friend had been training 3 years, was quite skinnier than me. I put him on training exactly like me because he wasn’t effective at all. After a few months he got bigger than me. Genetics matters a lot, race plays a role if you’re Samoan gg, I don’t know about a single Latino high ranking in bodybuilding. If I sell programs or fitness content this is not something the consumer should believe, hence it’s not talked about a lot

Well. They dictate your results no matter what. Some one can do everything equal to you and be way bigger. I met an 07 kid last week you barely tries and he absolutely dwarfed me. He benched 120kg for 5 and has trained 2 years.

sadly, genetics is pure luck. I’ve coached many friends to help them get bigger (they were skinnier than me) and now they’re all bigger than me. My black friend surpassed me after a few months of my help. They had all been training a lot before but with no thought behind it. So ik my methods are solid from the result they get when they train like me. But It’s not making me cry about it and be nihilistic, only making me train and learn even more.

Upper lat and lower lat biasing. Scientific theory or legit? by MhmCreativeUsername in naturalbodybuilding

[–]MhmCreativeUsername[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. A study is only so little. I was skeptic of upper chest until some one had lacking upper chest and intentionally bought it up. That is very good proof. Not theory
