[jasonlikesdeathmetal]

[shinshoryuken]

The IFBB REQUIRED you to take steroids in order to compete AT ALL. It's not something many of the competitors were thrilled about but it is a tradition that never died to this day.

[concordia2012]

chicken legs Benfatto

[SiggsSE]

That looks like Francis Benfatto.

[SiggsSE]

@steroidsR4shitheads Is it because he's in the IFBB that you think he took steroids?

[lucabenedetti]

i wonder what gay men used to wear in those days...

[SiggsSE]

@lucabenedetti Ask steroidsR4shitheads. He'll know.

[Agusvicky24]

what is DB?thabkss

[mathiastheok]

Ahhh the tighty tight cloths era of bodybuilding.... followed by the flannel and work boots era....

[YanWeezy19]

haha god damn, how old is this?

[shinshoryuken]

Richard Simmons would be proud of that exercise.

[astapasta0916]

[Ahm3dK]

[MrQuebec]

The other bodybuilder is Francis Benfatto.

[wolfpackforlife]

[stephboy79]

dancing shoulder workout !!!

[scottdavis0676]

Larry Scott was born in Blackfoot, Idaho. I hail from a town (Idaho Falls) located just 25 miles north. It's a small world after all LOL.

[hybridman]

Larry Scott. A physique truly made by dianabol alone. gimme a break that light pumper bodybuilding fluff training does not build big muscles, but the dianabol did for him.

[andrewishanukaai]

@hybridman

everything has its place. everyone is different. for my tall and lanky frame, i find that my major body parts like back and legs respond very well to heavy compounds but my smaller muscles will need some extra bodybuilding work to grow.

[Hbue84]

palm out db press......WTF!!

[TheBradTobin]

@Hbue84 this is very interesting, if you think about it, the first part of the press is working the front and side delts the last part of the press is all tricep(if you lock out) the way hes doing the press very well isolates the side delt.

[thoomoo]

Any friggin exercise works if you take a shit load drugs

[george10267]

@thoomoo STFU.........FRIGGIN' WIMP......QUIT CRYING ABOUT JUICE AND START TRAINING.

[thoomoo]

@george10267 fuck off

[george10267]

@thoomoo hey dickhead.......quit pissing and moaning and just train........you little wimp.....crying about steroids.....just train and quit finding excuses for being an ordinary individual.......

[george10267]

@thoomoo whatever you say......i'll just load up on test and just perform crunches......unreal!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[MrRanger1987]

he is stuck in the training where the muscles didnt have to be as big and defined with as much separation as today. he said that guy had good delts already and he didnt have any at all. thats one of the reasons why guys back then had bigger looking arms... when their delts were smaller their arms overshadowed them. arnold had good real delts but bad front and side delts and not very good triceps so it made his biceps look HUGE. bodybuilding is all about illusion

[TheLusseyran]

@MrRanger1987 I'm sorry but Larry Scott had the best delts I have ever seen, massive, defined and separated. Just look at him in the 1966 Mr Olympia, his delts were amazing

[Dayga]

WTF!!! White tights in a gym?  Ridiculous.

[jxk2790]

@Dayga

dude chill out....this is video is form like the 1980s. Ronnie COleman used to wear tight yellow spandex on leg day. tight compressive spandex is quite useful on leg day. Tom PLatz used to always wear tight workout pants for his leg day. Everything Platz did on leg day was intentional from the clothes he was going to wear and carbing up the previous day.

[SINceREous]

On the palm out db presses, are your hands supposed to be directly underneath your elbow throughout the movement?

[MrRanger1987]

@SINceREous they should be out enough to allow the joints not to feel stressed yes getting a good range of motion to use full power. if you feel your triceps too much your to far in and if you feel your joints your too far out... its just trail and error... form varies a little depending on your body

[Sepahyoth]

elñ de la camiseta negra esta bien sexy

[jonblood]

larry had some of the best shoulders and arms in the buisness. i'd rather be muscled like him than the bodybuilders of today

[PowerTia86]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA

[olympia65]

Often imatated but never duplicated - LARRY SCOTT - THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!

[olympia65]

Often imatated but never duplicated - LARRY SCOTT - THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!

[olympia65]

@olympia65

[benniturd]

His presses look very aukward, and nothing like I've ever seen before...

[hueynewy]

No joke, I put my back out for 6 weeks doing his style of lateral raises.

[tigermancall]

@hueynewy i agree with you, eerie moves, pros don't use thw routine that they preach. he is just making that guy a fool.

[Kainthemain]

the other guy looks like a juiced up ballerina!

[mdfu]

LMFAO

[simbelmur]

@Kainthemain if I am not mistaken, it is Francis Benfatto

[Kainthemain]

@simbelmur still looks gay

[hydrobot2003]

@Kainthemain - was that Bob Paris? Bob Paris later announce to the bodybuilding community that he takes it up the butt. Oops? I mean he announce he is Gay.

[pudzian19841]

@Kainthemain Francis Benfatto. !!!!

[keithtm1776]

@Kainthemain

Butt...he is more "buff" than you...right ;)...

[ChickenM4ster]

HAHAHHAA.A.A.A..A

when Scott Say , its nothing that you dont need deltoids you have it already ,

Stupid guy says, I need more. :D hahahaaaaaa

[stridelighter]

Scott had the best builders shoulders are around. Mass, symetry he had it all. Funny thing, though. If you look at him in this vid, he didn't have wide clavicles in the Don Howorth sense. He literally built his shoulders into the best around. And he has the look and demeanor of a TV anchorman.

[WasGibtsLeute]

Is this the famous Larry Scott who invented the Scott Curls? An exercise similar to preacher curls but without a machine.

[roodsbrood]

thank you for posting the extract, but have you got the rest of the video, as it is very informative?

[blogceline]

is this benfatto

[mrhypno84]

yep

[kev2688]

i dont care if he was mr olympia, those shoulder presses are shit

[TheLusseyran]

lol retard

[nenzi671]

...

[nenzi671]

...

[nenzi671]

He says that while doing side laterals if the arms are extended way out it is 'totally wrong'. There are plenty of vids here of BBers doing it exactly the way he says is totally wrong but they all have large round thick deltoids.(Jay,Kevin,Flex) So how are they wrong if they all have huge delts? Look at the vids. All great delts by doing laterals w arms extended.

[kebabs19]

amen brother, and this guy has shite delts! how rich

[casanova520]

Is that ballot dancer outfit? OMG!

[ouijaouija]

wtf that guy wearin lol

[keithtm1776]

@ouijaouija

true, the out fit is "ghey", but, it does not detract from the excellence of the information...



[bruizer1100]

@ouijaouija hahah juice pigs gotta be the worst dressed people

[msmith1845]

great instructional video. thank u for posting this up.

[DarkISRbody]

My point of view?he is stupid as hell with all do respect he just pulled so much bullshit out of his mouth in only 4 mins.

[mrolympia65]

82008607 You have to do what works for you, if you do that one exercise that works for you and it doesn't work for them. OH F*CK"IN WELL! Of coarse they say your nuts, if they don't even try it who's nuts now ?

I agree with you 8208607. My issue was that people would say upfront, "That junk doesn't work." OR "I know it wouldn't work for me." without even trying it. Scott's techniques worked for me and nobody had better arms/delts than Scott to this day or with worse genetics.

[nenzi671]

I like Larry. Met him at a show a few years back. Very nice man. But I have to take issue with a comment he made about doing side laterals with arms extended outward. He says it is "totally wrong" but I have seen dozens of BB's with great thick round deltoids who do it just the way he claims is "toally wrong." Look at Yates,Ray, Levrone,Cutler & Flex videos.Their arms are extended way out from their sides. All great delts. Both ways(bent arm & straight) seem to do a great job at capping delts.

[TAXCHEAT]

brilliant advice ... i learnt from trial and error which sumtimes is not the best way ..takes too long to see gains and too many injuries... listen to larry the mans knows what he is talking about.... or take steroids.. just joking listen to larry.. .

[RyScott85]

Kown for good arms, period.. why would you take his shoulder advice?? Just like tom platz was legs.. take advice for what they excelled at.

[moorigs]

Yes, Scott was known for his arms but he also had very good delts in his prime as well.

[SUPERSAYAN2009]

Where can you get the whole video of Larry Scott Hypergrowth System, and any other Larry Scoot training videos.

[LarryScottBB]

great video, greatperson, great exercises

[mrmorgan7148]

I started following Larry's advice as per this video a few weeks ago. The results have been explosive! I also stopped doing trap work and now finally my delts are growing. The first time I tried the bent arm side laterals, my delts swelled. Ditto for the Scott Press. Previously I had used Mentzer's HIT sytem and only got sore joints. Larry is the best trainer in the UNIVERSE.

[mrolympia65]

I bought Larry Scott's courses many years ago when Larry initially revealed these techniques. Everyone told me I was nuts. Guess what? I made the best gains of my life. These videos making understanding the technique much easier than from the old courses, looking at pictures and reading material. Thank you Larry for helping me make the best gains of my life.

[82008607]

You have to do what works for you, if you do that one exercise that works for you and it doesn't work for them. OH F*CK"IN WELL! Of coarse they say your nuts, if they don't even try it who's nuts now ?

[Enonemis1]

This is really different than my shoulder routines. I read to always keep your arms as straight as possible on lateral raises and to go through a full range of motion on the presses. Does anyone know Larry Scott shortens the range of motion on the presses and bends his elbows on the lateral raises? Is this a more effective way of working out the shoulders? Hope someone can help.

[eyedentifeye]

In answer to your question, to me, the best advice come from old-school bb's such as Larry Scott, because they've gone through many age-related phases. And with the DBs held straight-arm when doing laterals, will eventually lead to injury. Larry's right, who got it from Vince Gironda: round the shoulders and bend the elbows

[weightmaster98]

I agree with Scott. If you build big traps, you'll never have big delts. The guys who moderately big delts with the oversized traps are genetic naturals on roids. Average guys won't look like that. Traps detract from shoulder gains and cosmetically, detract from as well. Scott developed some of the best delts in the business despite poor genetics and is one of the most intelligent trainers around.

[moorigs]

I totally agree. Scott is one of the best trainers ever and he built some awesome rounded canan ball delts. Yes oversized traps do detract from delt gains, Steve Reeves never trained traps directly as he knew they would detract from his wide shoulder girth.

[leahcimrac]

My traps are huge and i don't even train them anymore because they are over developed. I can't understand what he is saying, but I'm currently working on building my deltoids and I'm finding I'm getting great results even tho my trap are so oversized.

[nenzi671]

Could someone find & post Larry's "Ring Of fire" abdominal routine? I have read it but it would be good to see how to do it correctly. Thanks.

[nenzi671]

Keep posting Larry Scott vids. Very informative. I met him at a seminar a few years back.A very nice and approachable man. Whats he up to these days at 70 years old?

[Neil6000]

Larry stated in this video, "If you build big traps, you'll never build big deltoids, cause they'll bully you."

While I admire Larry Scott as a legend, this statement he just made is totally false and doesn't even make sense.

How would he explain all the bodybuilders out there today that have both huge traps AND huge deltoids???

The two should build together with the weaker muscle group unavoidably getting worked the hardest since they both assist in the same movements.......

[Neil6000]

.....If one has really strong traps, his deltoids would be forced to work harder during presses & lateral raises to keep up with those strong traps.

On the other hand if one has weak traps, the delts won't be able to be worked to their maximum as the traps will fatigue before the deltoids will. In order to develop your deltoids to their fullest, you must also develop strong traps as the 2 work together.

This just goes to show that bodybuilding legends don't necessarily have all the answers.

[markobegus]

the guy did side laterales WAY better than scott....

[jvflexx]

that guy he is training looks like a ballerina fag with those tight pants!

[Neil6000]

jvflexx:

"that guy he is training looks like a ballerina fag with those tight pants! "

I think this video was made in the 80s when clothes like that were in style & styles do change.

The guy's name is Francis Benfatto and From 1988 to 1991 he placed top position as a professional finishing 6th place in 1990 and 7th in 1991 at Mr. Olympia. Also he was the most conditioned athlete during the one and only drug tested Mr Olympia in history in 1990.

What have you accomplished lately asshole?

[logant44]

That's all quite true.

But Benfatto was a raging fag.

[Neil6000]

logant44:

"Benfatto was a raging fag"

That's the first I ever heard that but maybe it takes one to know one so you may have access to some information that I don't know about it.

[koreoh12]

I've been looking for a clip on how larry did laterals. Thanks.

[weightmaster98]

WE WANT SCOTT!!! Please - More of Larry Scott training. AWESOME!!!!!!!

[Brutmax]

There was a lot of Vince Gironda in his instructions. Especially about front deltoids. Good stuff!

[2horns]

omg..thank you so much for posting this vid!!!!
