    @CoLdsnipa Afterappropriate warmup, go for 3 sets of 5 reps with good control of the weight. Just do Squats/Deadlifts, Bench, Pullups/Rows. Isolating the tiny bicep muscle as shown in this video for beginners is ridiculous. Spend your time doing basic power building movements that employ numerous muscles.

    @robertsonak01 It’s simplistic to say “do 15 reps”. Everyone responds differently and only through experimentation can one find optimal growth/endurance/recuperation etc. Good to mix it up. Don’t train just because it’s Thursday and bench and back day. Workout when you feel motivated and such should be pleasurable, not drudgery. I see too many guys overtrain and do too much…and like this man, for whatever reason, neglect to strengthen their necks. Dudes, a powerful neck is a must.

    It appears this instructor has built an attractive, muscled body (except for the chicken neck) for no purpose other than appearance and I would caution all beginning lifters to consider what sports they enjoy when embarking on an exercise program.

    Take for an example Schwarzenegger, a 7 time Mr. Olympia. Consider how awkward he looked when he ran in his movie roles. On the other hand, look at the “useful” muscularity of someone like Randy Couture. Think “utility” when working out.

    @CoLdsnipa

    @CoLdsnipa To get the most effective workout, and to avoid injury… you should always start with a super small weight and get good form. Gradually increase the weight each session. If you ever start to break form, STOP the exercise. Lower the weight if you need to, but do not attempt to push through with bad form. That is the quickest way to injure yourself.

    @13andincrediblycut just because you can doesn’t mean it is good for you you can still build big muscles if that is your goal at a slow and steady pace. don’t forget that your body is growing and can be easily damaged for life if you put too much weight to fast.

    I’m 13, drug-free, and my max shoulder-press is 280lbs, or two 130lb dumbbells for 4 reps using full-depth at a bodyweight of 201 and 6′4″. :)

    @danielgirotto If your goal is hypertrophy, then you should increase weight.

    @TheAlex0895 5 kg, ha. what do you weigh like 60 kg. no man your fine increase the weight buddy. for strength stick between 6-8 reps perfect form. at the age of 16 you are perfectly fine to lift weights, i am 17 and lifted weights for 3 years without stunt growth, currently 6 foot 3. just study exercises everyday like me :)

    I find that people are too concerned about the amount of weight they put… The important is to learn the proper techniques of the exercices…
