Have to say, if you want your hamstrings to grow, deadlifts is the way to go. I did all the leg curl on machines stuff and it wasn't until I started to stiff-legged-dead-lift that my rear legs came on.
A little off topic tuan but with regard to squatting, do you have any tips when trying to push through the heels so to speak? Should the feet be pivoted or aligned straight in front, or? thanks
@1TU3 please listen to what I was saying in the videos for I metioned over and over how most of the stress was in my hips, glutes and hams. no where in any of the videos did I do romanian deadlifts. all of those where just regular deadlifts. also, if my lower back was hurting, how would I do 100 reps of deadlifts going up to weights of 435 lbs, followed by 50 reps good mornings with the last set of 10 reps at 225 lbs followed by 3 sets of 30 reps hyperextensions?
Hey bro...!! Just wanted to give you props not only on your achievements but overall as a bodybuilder and personal trainer. I too am a personal trainer out here is San Francisco, I do not body build but i am strongly considering it just to keep me motivated and reaching new goals. You explanations, and executed techniques are informative and precise. It shows from your experience. Very well respected! Keep it up! Good luck to you on your first competition of the season!
@jwu322 thanks for the support and I do hope you do compete one day. the knowledge you gain not just from learning but also how it feels like when you go through the process. like they say, its one thing to read about something, it is another to live it.
Wow man I'm amazed how you get more definition in each vid. Also it's so refreshing to see real well executed and explained workout. I noticed that you gain and loose a lot of weight depending on whether you're starting in bodybuilding or powerlifting competition. Could you shed some light on how you do this without loosing muscle mass?
@Marine475 that is a difficult question because you have to address so many things. also, most people do not understand what type of somato type they are, and without understand that, you will have a difficult time understand what program works best for you. and that is just to start
@roughneckasian hopefully one day you would have a video up with an explanation of what a somato type is, and how we can all figure out what type we are, because this is my first time hearing such a word and my curiosity wants me to learn more of it!
man dude thats awsome strength and endurance and the fact that your drug free is a great inspiration too me good luck in your up coming contest! keep the videos coming.
@Theitalianguy2009 the most important supplement are multi vit, bcaa, and glucosiamine conjointant for my joints. everything else just depends on what training phase I am in
