  • Scooby, the movement with the EZ-bar is a compound movement called reverse biceps curl. Not an isolation for the forearms. I'm sure you know that but you should've said something about it in this video for the people who don't know.

  • I'm sorry Scooby, I had to watch it. Whenever I watch your videos I always feel guilty when doing isolating training when I'm only 13.

  • graeat vidddeo!

  • do lats help build up your chest muscles?

  • i wouldn't think so because its like the opposite way if you were to do a lat pull down opposed to bench press

  • You can think of your whole torso as a tent, if one side is a lot weaker the whole thing collapses, so your body doesn't (easily) allow you to make one side too much stronger.

    In short, if you want a stronger chest, do the reverse motion of a chest exercise (rows or rear flyes for example).

  • this guy is a flamer. but i wouldnt tell him that to his face lol

  • what does flamer mean?

  • he said shit awesome lol

  • scooby said shit :(

  • good vid at least i know now that working forearms for beginners is pretty unnecessary because many of the works outs you do involve forearms in some way.

  • i love the way he says shit lol, scooby you never swear but it made me laugh, love the videos, i know you told me not to watch it but i did, all the videos really help and i really like the cardio vids

  • great video

  • in the dumbell press and dumbell fly, do you have to arch your back?

  • well it still ook good if i have hairy arms?

  • Hey Scooby, How do you get your upper chest bigger. My chest right now is only big in the middle and lower part. I started doing only incline exercises for my chest workouts, but have been for only 3 weeks now. Any suggestions?

  • i wouldn't say this video is unnecessary at all. its helped me with getting my forearm strong after i broke my arm(i broke the radius). your helping me get back to my football strength. I cannot thank you enough for this video.

  • I agree with this guy. You train your forearms with nearly every exercise. I still train them 3 times a week together with my other routines.

    Check out my forearm exercise video. You won't need any weights only a chair and a towel. Check out my channel!

  • why is your belly button so off centered?

  • LMAO!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! gooooddd one

  • can you get any leg exercise videos?

  • Yes, I have some leg exercise videos. Click on my username "Scooby1961" to see my profile page and there you will find my playlists. There is one for leg workouts.

  • Do you really think your stupid jokes are funny?

  • SCOOBY IS FUCKING HILARIOUS

  • hey scooby so im 14 and i guess im pretty fit but i do have a little bit of fat and i wanna know if i should build muscle first or lose the fat first

  • lose the fat first because if you build muscle first, you will have muscle but underneath the fat so lose fat first

  • lol scooby your funny :]

    pine cone hahaa:D

  • lol.. bouncy shit

  • YOU RULE MAN!!!

  • YOU ARE AWESOME SCOOBY

  • NERD+JUICE= This Guy

  • this guy is the best

  • gotta say scooby your quick and easy nutrition vids are amazingly simple and thanks for the suggestions also glad you emphasize free weights with good execution free weights give way better results keep the vids coming Buddy!!!

  • Scooby I would really love it if you could give me some leg workouts. I hear you have to train your upper body equally to the lower body in order to hit your true potential. I also dislike squats because of the pain effect on my neck and pads don't help too much. I just think it would be a nice add since you gave us a bunch of upper body ones and not lower body ones. Also if you did leg workouts could you make some for more of toning and adding muscle not incredible hulk making ones?

  • Scooby i love your videos, ur very smart and funny =D. Greetings from a peruvian fan!

  • Hahahaha scooby i love your sense of humor

  • Haha pine cone dumbells!

  • Is the "palms down" exercise using the crooked bar for forearms the same one you sugested in your "21's for biceps" ? Just thought it could be , in case it is , usefull to tell people about the fact that they are working biceps too. or I am just being picky ... The video is great. THANKS !!

    PS.: The ""bouncy sh*t "" was not in the script was it ??!! Shocking !! but funny !!!

    You are too well manered for it. Probably that's the reason why was so funny!

    Regards !! Fan from Brazil

  • I work out my forearms every day while at the computer...

  • Great vid Scoob thanks for the excellent advice and the reason why to stay away from this exercise

  • lol good stuff

  • sound advicing as always, du bist erstaunlich!!

  • Look it is Tarzan! Ahuhahahauuhauuha....

    Wo ist Hans abgeblieben? Hasst er auch Vorderarme?

  • Hans macht immer noch Urlaub in Muenchen :(

  • 4:40

    Haha this kind of bouncy.. sh*t XD

  • I love you Scooby! You are doing a great job, keep up your good work educating and informing people to own the vehicle they drive their life in. So many folks train poorly and base their training on short term goals that are not healthy in the long run. I respect your honesty!

  • Finally, forearms!

  • aaa dude u said shit !! :D:D

  • is he gay?

  • Just watch the video,stop judging people

  • are you an idiot..ijust asked the question...

  • jacking it is a forearm excercise

  • I would suck your tities.

  • why are you in the woods?

  • i love this guy! .... no homo... but whenever i finally find time to go to the gym i'm totally taking his advice.

  • Hey Scooby, why do you put up these videos and after a few hundred comments, you disable comments?

  • Hey ChuckDaDog, I disable comments on my old videos for two reasons. First, after about a week the comment quality degrades to the point where its just a bunch of kids calling each other names. I just had to block two users for doing just that. The other reason is that I have a forum which is a much better place for people to comment on my videos and get their questions answered. its at forum(.)scoobysworkshop(.)com

  • hey scooby, i'd like to know your thoughts on p90x

  • scooby, i just found the answer to that question on your website

  • i had to cut a log with an ax 2 days ago and my forearms are still sore. ive been lifting for the past 4 years, along with playing football, so im use to strenuous workouts but that was probably the best forearm workout ive ever done

  • Dude need a tissue?

  • hahah 15 year old kid gonna beat my ass? you weigh 100 lbs and have no pubic hair, keep dancing fag

  • haha yah 6ft 190. your the scronny lil bitch

  • lol, you can't even spell scrawny, hahaha

    15 year olds are stupid

  • body builders have no brains anyway..

  • And nerds have it?

  • can u say ROiDS? lol what a retard. hahaha

  • hahaha if you smoke a protien bar do u get the protien or nutrients out of it? the answer is no, so tobacco wouldnt benefit you one bit, it would do the opposite,

    one more thing, i wanted to ask a question...

    Do u suffer from some kind of mental disability?

    like honestly???

  • god your a dork.

  • definitely gay,,,,,,, but lets concentrate on the more important thing, how much T do you take when youre a beginner,

  • WHERE DOES HE LIVE!

  • HI scooby, I have a question and didn't know where to ask it so I'll do it here. I would like to know is smoking affects nutrition at all. Because tabaco is a plant, so does it give the body extra protein? Do smokes have calories? Thanks

  • Dude, there are absolutely no physical benefits from smoking cigarettes. And if they're so happen to be some...they're not worth it. I smoke, I assume you smoke. It's a disgusting habit and we both need to quit.

  • why is everyone hating on this video. Haters have nothing better to do , scooby is a example of massive dedication and i respect him. He would beat the sh** out of all the haters here .

  • Good advice. When I started out I wanted the Popeye forearms, too. = P

  • take some more steroids you big fruit

  • Do some workout for a few years and you will look the same. No steroids at all.

  • hey scooby can you add me as a friend cause i need to ask you some questions about gyms and what could substitute dumbells for workouts , thanks

  • Got questions 280az? Please post them on the forum - forum(.)scoobysworkshop(.)com

  • ur body is so gross to look at

  • hey scooby! should i drink a pre-workout shake and a post work out shake?

    would appreciate your thoughts on that!

    by the way great videos keep it up!

  • this guy is gay hahahaha

  • yeah ok bud hed beat the shit out of your puny ass

  • Do i hear steroids?

  • do u smoke weed urself scooby?

    is that ur special element in ur diet?

  • English krish... English.

  • its call a z bar

  • at 6:00 ...what kind of climbing flowers are behind you?

  • In the background is lantana (orange) and bougainvillea (purple)

  • awesome

  • is funny how much of a nerd you are but youre intelligent at that

  • can you do an upperbody bodyweight workout?

  • y the fuck is he in the woods?

  • he forgot you have to do wrist curls with trees.

  • Scooby, just wanted to say you have been a really big help in getting me strong and fit. Just finished your shoulder stabilizer exercises and the burn feels great.

    So thanks

  • scooby you look like 30-35

  • scooby can you make a complete shoulder workout oh and you on wikipedia just type in bicep curl ;)

  • man he did that already  how incompetent are you, type it in and do it, do it :)

  • complete shoulder workout is coming soon. On the scoobysworkshop forum, people have overwhelmingly voted that one as important to do.

  • I didn't watch this video because he told me to go away.

  • LOL @ "bouncy shhhhit" Scooby has a good sense of humor.

  • hey you should make a leg workout at home video because im building my upper body (thanks to your videos) but i really need to build leg muscles!

  • Hey guys, i have one question: Is there another way to break a plateau except for increasing the weight you exercise with? ROFL at bouncy shit!

  • 4:44  " ...and be doing this kinda bouncy shhhit...." lol scooby swore!!!!

    great video btw

  • haha thats the first time ive ever heard him swear!

  • HAHAHA lol scooby is the man at 4:43 he actually says SHIT

  • Thank you for posting scooby.

    LOL i loved it at the beginning. Scooby, you make exercising so interesting and funny. :-)

  • Scooby, the day you posted this video, at the gym everyone was doing FOREARMS, what the hell? i'm sure it wasn't just a coincidense.

  • scooby,

    I love you!

  • Thanks for posting Scooby! Always enjoy learning new techniques to take with me to the gym!

  • SCOOBY SUPERSTAR!!i watch all this guys videos ,and wait with impatience for the next!!An absolutely brilliant contributor to anyone considering a health and fitness lifestyle.He is a true gentleman,thanks again Scooby!

  • yo scooby you should get into MMA/UFC

  • ur the man scooby

  • oh i know. i'd totally have unprotected interracial butt sex with scooby. thanks and god bless.

  • thanks man, learnt something new :)

  • OMG YOU SAID SHIT @ 4:44!!!!

    I've watched almost all of your videos and that is the first time I have heard you cuss!!!

  • so what, hes human :)

  • lol, i laughed so hard when he paused and ... shit. hahahaha

    but yeahh.. great videos scooby!

    im not gay but damn! i wish i had your body :( im so jealous :(

  • Awesome vascularity.

  • SCOOBY! love the videos. its what got me into body building.

    i think you should do more vids on compound lifting. not pull ups and dips. but deadlifting and squating. deadlifting and squating CAN be done at home. i do it myself. no big squat rack, just a basic bench. squats and deadlifts are extremely crucial to bodybuilding and imo, should be covered.

  • gah my elbow tip hurts when i do french press/skull crushers or any exercise involving mostly triceps...can anyone help me?

  • and why the fuck are u in the fuckin jungle...fuckin tarzan whore!

  • He's looking for Kobe's basketball

  • Hater

  • you have no abs...bitch!

  • Where's your video Kobe lover.

  • can you list the compound workouts for me PLEASE?

    I'm an beginner.

  • if you are a beginner, you shouldn't be focusing on your forearms at all the first year. they will get stronger through holding the weights while exercising bigger muscles, such as the pectorals or lats.

  • yea i checked his site out

    i get it now

    thanks :)

  • HAHA LOL

    i like the beginning

    But isn't the Pull-up the military push?

    Isn't it bad for your back?

    YOU'RE AWESOME MAN!

  • I read it on your website, but theirs no answere to this and i ask it in your forum but nobody answered

    :( so sry that i ask you on this way^^

    PS: Sorry for my english , i come from Germany and cant speak english very very well

    Scooby i like you and its good that we can ask you questions . I only listen to you^^

    Say hello to Han`s ^^

  • I like this kind of exercise...

    If id do 2 exercises for an example: chest for 15minutes and make 5 minutes rest. After this you said you can search for 2 other excersice for 15 minutes.

    My first question: should i do chest again(other exercise) for 15 minutes or other muscle groups???example 2 exercise back?

    My second question:Can i do this kind of training every second week..?

    So: first week normal train , second week zero rest technique,normal,zero rest.... so on

  • Its ok scooby, forarms are ass tits, btw sucks about the tendiniteous.

  • Sorry to bug you I have a small question. I've been working out for some time now stopped for about nearly a year, just got back into working out again. Is it ok if I continue working out even though my muscles are sore? And yes I have been resting. I'm knowledgeable on diet and exercising, just would like to hear your feedback. I enjoy your videos, happy to know your educating others with your knowledge. :D

  • When I first started working out I asked a professor at my school about muscle soreness. Turns out that soreness comes from hundreds of tiny tears in the muscle and the actual soreness is the muscle getting aggrivated by these tears. I was told to take some time off and let my body heal itself. It was good advice.

  • you want your muscles to tear. if your muscles are incredibly sore its because you didnt eat right that day.

  • Well you're right about the tearing, that's a big part of how muscle grows. However, in all my research into working out I have never about eating having to do with it. Glucosamine is important in reducing muscle soreness and healing the muscle; I assume that's what you mean?

  • What?

  • my god his body is bigger than his head :o

  • i know haha :D

  • duh idiot

  • dummbest video.....

    /:I

  • Hey scooby, i really need a reply with some good advise for this comment, i have been lifting weights for around 10 months now and i have felt some gains of muscle on my chest but i cannot see much of the muscle in my chest so can you help please scooby, how long did it take you?? thanks MILLION scooby

  • Are you by any chance overweight?

  • i still say wackin' off is the best forearm workout!

  • =O you cursed!!!

    ok i have a question and it'll seem silly

    but i struggle lots with bicep excersizes

    and i can't seem to get past 40lbs on DB curls

    would strengthing my forearms help me curl more?

  • Thanks scooby..i been trying to do somthing like this for ages..i followed all of your videos and i doing great.

    thanks agian !!

  • Scooby Everyone watched the video.

  • Hi Scooby. I rock climb as well as lift, and would recommend the following forearm exercises. No heavy weights or expensive equipment needed.

    -Hanging from a bar until your hands give out

    -Rope climbing without legs

    -Hang a kilo or two from a cord. Attach to the centre of a rod. Hold the rod at arms length and roll, reeling the weight up slowly. Then lower the weight back to the floor. Palms up and down are both good. Only a kilo, but the forearms start to burn.

  • LOL! Yes, rock climbing is probably the best forearm workout you can possibly get!

  • bouncy shit HAHA and nice advice man thanks i guess ill have to work on my forearms later in my life since im young

  • Dude you give great advices, i was wondering if the forearm needs training, but it seems that it gets trained with the other workouts, thanks for the advices. By the way, great videos you got there.

  • Sooby, youre a legend.

  • Hello, I was watching your "resolution: weight loss" video and I wanted to know what your opinion on substituting flutter kicks for the crunches would be.

    I have heard that Flutter Kicks are better than crunches, especially if you throw in some bicycles to get the obliques.

    Any input?

  • Hey Kirby, no substitute for crunches. Flutter kicks are really hard on the lower back too. Bicycles are much easier on the lower back than flutter kicks and much more effective too. Do the crunches and add bicycles if you want but dont skip the crunches

  • scooby how did you become a engineer? and how do you keep up your worke out with your job on track?

  • 'bouncy shit' LOL

  • HAHAHA!

    You cussed! That made my week man.

    Thank you. =D

  • Hi scooby, i just injured my elbow doing the rope triceps exercise and got a severe tendonitis... sucks!! My mystake was doing the negative exercise and at the last point smashing the weights. Making tension from doing the correct movement adding the smashing... the vibration went straight to the tendon. In the 10 years i ve been working out ive never had this injure. it is really bad. Any tips for fast healing ??

  • Scooby you bloody swearer!! j/k lol. But young bob cicherello told us that you don't do forearms cause it'll make your upper arm look smaller in proportion..

  • scooby thanks for the great work out and all of your other videos.

    but my question for this video is why are you in the woods

  • hey scooby i read somewhere that you can train forearms every day because they are a dense muscle.....I read thats what bruce lee did anyway.

  • lmfao. hearing him swear made my day

  • HE SAID SHIT OMG!

  • I caught that too!

  • scooby one question, but about the no pain no gain video.. when u tlak about letting the muscle heal until soreness is gone to procede and workout again,u are saying that if my muscles are too sore i cant workout next day?eventho if i workout on a different muscle?

  • ScOOOby the pinecones I found had bugs crawling all over them and they went up my arms and under my shirt can I use anything else or do u know can I order sterile (and CHEEP) pinecones on the internet somewhere? Thnks

  • LOL 4:42 "doin all this bouncy shit" first time i herd him cuss in one of his videos

  • Lol, I know!

  • As another guy said before, I've never ever heard you curse up untill now.... I love it!

    And thanks for this video, I've always wanted to train my forearms because my grip strength will at some point in the middle of my workout get to weak for me to even do a single upper body exercise

    But thanks again

  • Wow, rage more kid. Thanks for proving how intellectualy bankrupt you are.

  • I had to block user FIAZCOO, his language was entirely inappropriate. Its people like him that force me to disable comments after a few days.

  • Hey Scooby just like to thank you for your videos. I have found them to be a big help in the gym. Gives me a better sense of what I should and shouldn't be doing. My question for you is should shoulder stabilizing exercises be done before or after a shoulder/trap workout, or should they not be done on a shoulder/trap workout day at all?

  • Mr Scooby, I tend to do some of these exercises with dumbells at home, lol.

  • this guy is a fag look whos got some decent love handles and is trying to apear that his nutrition is flawless....

    fag

  • A lot of hate... Scooby is a great guy, helps thousands for nothing but the love of it.

    Take your hate somewhere else..

  • scooby will own you. he could out lift you. you are a loser who is probably a fatass and you are just jealous of how his pecs are the size of your head. suck on that

  • And who are you? Some overweight nerd rager who has nothing better to do with his time but talk shit on the internet? Why don't you post a video on the internet fatty?
