  • hey man for some reason when i bench i dont feel a burn in my right pec but in my right shoulder, but i do feel the burn in my left pec though. Do you have any idea why this might be occuring ? thx

  • @abarsky17

    You can try pre-exhausting your pecs before hand to help target your chest more. Check out my video called:

    "Cable Cross Over Pre-Exhaust Chest Workout"

  • Aren`t pull-overs an exercise for lats?From what I know this exercise doesn`t expand your rib cage...

  • @mariusedge

    This is a stretch exercise for both the chest and lats.

  • Put up a vid of your girl working out...i bet chu that will get alot of views (:

  • What's your opinion on the guillotine press Lee, pressing on a flat bench lowering the bar from the very top or your chest/neck to work the upper pecs? I know obviously lifting heaving would be a no-no in this exercise, have you ever tried this form of benching?

  • @tranquility321

    I personally hate doing benches to the neck, it hurts my shoulders more than anything. I prefer to bench lower on the chest.

  • What is the song in the beginning?

  • @Johnyboy25

    It's a royalty free music clip that I bought for using in my videos.

  • Tricia is sexy :D

  • shes hot

  • 8:38...NICE..wish i had that...

  • @leemhayward thanks man, most youtubers don't reply to comments

  • @leemhayward hey man like your videos, I'm 15 but of course I want to look like you. How often should I workout my chest per week?

  • @Noakesunderscorey

    You can work each muscle group 2 times per week. I've got a basic beginners workout program posted up on my main channel page. Just scroll through my most recent videos and you'll see it.

  • thanks for the explanation about the stretching

  • how long do you rest between sets? and how long should this entire workout take?

  • @madatteltrab

    Rest between 1-2 minutes between sets. You should be able to get this entire workout done in less then an hour.

  • @leemhayward Hi Lee great video, i was wondering whether i should full extend when doing barbell bench or dumbell press and some people and videos say that its better not to, due to keeping more stress on the chest. thanks

  • @TheGeeza007

    Generally when I'm pumping out higher reps I'll stop short of lockout to perform the reps faster. But when I'm doing lower reps I'll often lock them out fully. Either way you can still make good progress.

  • I did not favorite this video? Whoever hijacked my account...haver fun cause I dont use it lol..... FYI, This video is stupid

  • Question: When I do dumbbell pullovers I don't really feel it in the chest. Its my shoulders and triceps that takes most of the heat. Does that mean I'm doing it wrong, or is it just my shoulders and triceps that are weak? I'm a beginner.

  • @SPUNKKK

    As you get more developed it will be easier to feel your muscles working as you do the exercises. But this particular move is mainly a stretch move, you should feel the stretch in your chest, lats, triceps, etc.

  • @leemhayward in benchpress, how many reps and how many sets?

  • @Sequels3

    Start off with a couple lighter warm up sets and then do 3 heavier sets of 8-10 reps for each exercise.

  • @SPUNKKK i had the same issue when i first started but i used the bench bar for a wider grip to focuse on my serratus muscles. Your most likely doing what i done, bending your elbows to much and attempting to extend them as you bring the weight over your head. I found it to target the area much more effective if you keep the same angle with your elbows and remember to get a full stretch. I would tense at the peak before going back down but again i was targeting the serratus muscles

  • Nice but :D!!

  • hey lee, got a question not related to workout.

    Did he catch the ghost?

  • @iamzero79

    Yes, I've never seen any ghosts at the gym so he's doing a good job :-)

  • When I do the dumbbell pullover I lay along the bench fully does this make a difference? Also I have been doing on my back workout, doesn't it do your back? Great videos as always

  • @lackofbettaname

    You can do them laying either way on the bench. Cross bench provides a deeper stretch throughout the rib cage, but either variation is fine. Pull overs are both a stretch more for the chest and lats so you can include them with either a back or chest workout.

  • I think the workout is okay, but damn... why can't anyone do proper dumbell flyes? The elbows should not be bent 90 degrees (on the way down), they should be straight but not locked. Your chest is not that easily fooled.

  • She got a nice butt.

  • I don't think that back position looks to healthy mate, way to much pressure on the mid thoracic s.

  • @search4orlife

    When training chest you need to arch your back and expand your rib cage in order to activate the chest. When you lay flat back there's a lot more stress on the shoulders and a greater risk of rotator / shoulder injuries. I've got a video that explains this in much more detail called: "How To Bench Press More Weight With Proper Technique"

  • good video and great tips THANK YOU

  • Those ghost busters keep the gym clean of dirt (and ghosts) LOL

  • COLD HARD FACT: Patricia can lift more weight than most guys!

  • Hey lee y are you not in ghost buster movie?

  • 2.35 ghost busters :D

  • Thx lee great video

  • Lee, does a chest press machine give the same effect as the barbell press?

  • @TrueConservative123

    It works the same muscles, but the barbell bench is harder (and more effective) because you have to balance and stabilize the weights and this is more demanding then using a machine bench press.

  • @leemhayward Thanks, and by the way I love your videos along with Vince's. Keep up the great work.

  • @leemhayward Oh yeah, I went to the gym yesterday and did the barbell bench press instead of the chest press machine and the difference is like night and day. I couldn't lift nearly as much weight as I could on the machine but I could feel my chest working a lot harder with the barbells. And man am I sore today! lol

  • 9:00- 9:13, Niceee asss, Patricia! ahaha.

  • Sure i seen a Ghost Buster walking round in the background!.... with the tank on his back and everything!!

  • great vids man! keep it up, and Patrish? the answer is yes!

  • Is there a specific exercise to work the lower pec, like around the nipple area? Or is that area just something that comes with time while working the other areas.

  • @Bignube14

    As your chest get bigger and stronger you'll fill out all over, including the lower pec area.

  • @leemhayward Thanks alot. By the way, you're seriously massive.

  • When did you start bodybuilding?

  • @austinwwe619

    I started working out in 1990.

  • 1:20 hes winkin at you meaning your gonna see some booty... like pushup girl :D

  • Hey man , what should i do if i have a very obvious chest size imbalance?

  • @TheBenjiProduction

    Focus on doing exercises that work each side independently. Dumbbell exercises, cables, and machines like the hammer strength that work each side equally. This will help to balance out your chest development over time.

  • How can I get me chest to cut in on the sides and lower peck? Would flies and decline bench help work it so i can get the chest muscles to be more define?

  • @djknightmare666

    To get cut you need to lose bodyfat through strict dieting and extra cardio in addition to your weight training workouts. I actually cover a good fat loss program in my Extreme Fat Loss DVD which is available on my website LeeHayward. com/dvd

  • Lee who's that fox you're training with?

  • @Econ1260MetZRoberto

    That's my better half. We've been together for over 12 years now.

  • @leemhayward I hope you stay together for 120 more

  • Cheers THANX lee good video

  • Pull-over is a back exercise.

  • @wolfmann4moon

    It's a good stretch move for the lats and chest. You can add it in with either a back or chest workout.

  • @leemhayward You can do pull overs whenever you like,of course,but it is the only exercise witch isolates the lats,by working them without involving the biceps.

    I like doing pull overs on a Nautilus machine,but sadly the gym in witch i work out now dont have one,so i go with a dumbell.

    Anyway,great workout mate.

  • yo lee are you hitting that?

    

  • 8:48 that's huge bro

  • @mrsoundwave

    That's because I am from Newfoundland.

  • Great Vid Lee, I want to say thanks to you and your vids I'm getting leaner and stronger. As being a wrestler I need all the strength I can get. Thanks Lee.

  • hae lee i was doin in my chest workouts flat bench press then inclince bench press then flat dunbells bench then inclines to much compound u rekon

  • @butler622

    You don't need to do that many bench press variations in just one chest workout. I usually only do 1 or 2 bench press variations per workout.

  • is this workout good for a guy that has a small chest ?

  • @MarkOHVevo

    Sure, this workout will help you to develop that small chest and make it bigger.

  • this seems like a lot of excercises and reps. i keep getting people at the gym telling me im over training by doing 4 or 5 excercises with 3 sets each for one muscle group. saying that i would benefit more by doing less. i would like your opinion on this

  • @killaesien3

    Over training is all relative to the individual. If you are in good shape then you can handle a higher workload then someone who is not in shape. There is no set "right" or "wrong" answer to what constitutes over training. But the bottom line is you need to monitor and track your progress. This will let you know if you need to make changes or not.

  • Lee, whats your workout schedule?

  • @Dpatx21

    I usually workout for 2 days on and then take 1 day off.

    The actual training split will vary, but I'll usually train my body parts in this order:

    Chest

    Back

    Arms

    Legs

    Shoulders

  • @leemhayward u ahve nice body <3 it

  • Hey Lee I appreciate the vids and information....I usually work 5 days (day 1-chest day 2-back day 3-arms day 4-legs, day 5-shoulders....) are there days I should consider working opposing muscle groups (such as chest/back) or mix up the routine on occasion...I appreciate the help and the feedback

  • @slove8181973

    LOL that's the exact training order that I just posed in the comment above. I very often use the same workout split as this :-)

  • Ok there is not way u can watch this and not notice her butt. I mean that was a surprise huge nice tight butt. Great workout but I think I'm skipping to the push up part of the video every time.

  • hi lee what about inclines flat bench an incline benches does it matter that u leave those two out??

  • @butler622

    You can vary the bench press variations that you do with your chest workouts. But I usually only do 1 main bench press move per workout (i.e. flat, incline, barbell, dumbbell, etc.)

  • I can't believe the top comment isn't about how hot the girl's body is :|

  • trish has got a great ass...

  • nice vid sr!

    

  • Hi just saying thanks for giving us these workouts. Fined them challenging but realistic as some work out are completely over the top. As well you explain what each exercise dose so that we can understand how they work. I'm off to do your should workout now!

  • @gavinnorthants

    Thanks for the comments, glad you like the videos :-)

  • i love trish.

  • thumbs up if u noticed how nice that girls butt was during the push-ups

  • hi.. u look like jean claude van damme hehe..

  • Ghostbuster at 5:15

  • Good video's but I feel as if you're not breathing in and out right.

  • The guy doing ghostbusters in the background STAYS trying to get in the shot.

  • damn this chick is fit as fuck ... 0_0

  • Does doing low reps and heavy weight really build different muscles than high reps low weight? A lot of people say that low reps high weight builds bulky muscle is this true? i want to know becasue some exercieses i feel work better low reps and other with high reps. i dont want to be doing this if i am building bulky muscle and then tearing it down with lean muscle. i doubt thats whats happening but i just wnat to confirm it. thanks

  • @mmacquoid1

    I've got a video that talks about this called "How many reps should you do to build muscle". Just search for that video title.

  • @leemhayward is there a difference between bulky muscle and lean muscle?

  • @TheFineolase

    The difference between "bulky" and "lean" is the level of bodyfat you have. If you lose all your excess bodyfat and get the skin really thin then you'll have that "lean muscle look".

  • @mmacquoid1 How often should i do this workout?

  • @Traviesnavidad

    A good place to start is working each major muscle group once a week.

  • her pecs are bigger!!

  • Is that Venkman in the background "Ghostbusting"?

  • @TurtleOWurtle OMG I totally thought the same thing!

  • Very nice advice Lee. I like your videos.

  • hey lee, I only did incline and flat bench press for my chest workout. I train my chest part twice per week. Do you think its enough for me to get muscular chest?

  • @timbrandon94

    You really should include some fly movements as well to work all areas of your chest.

  • @leemhayward oh now I know, what about doing pullover instead of fly movement?

  • @timbrandon94

    They work the muscles differently. Pull overs are good, but they are not a replacement for flyes.

  • 1:30 lol :)

  • Curious why do I see some people sitting sideways on the bench doing these, when I do them laying the normal way on a bench and put my head at the end and put my hands in a triangle around the middle and do the same workout with a 75lb dumbell, what's the difference? cause this one seems more dangerous

  • @defender8314

    Laying across the bench allows for a deeper stretch because the hips can be lower then the height of the bench. But the same muscles get worked either way.

  • Lee I been watching and learning alot from your exercises. I been working out for some months now. I do see the progress but maybe not as much. I do have alot of fat on me. So I do as much cardio before I hit the weights. Which means sometimes am pretty tired after a walk and jog for 60 min. Do you have any advice on that. Should I stick to the cardio or weights or both. Hope to hear some feedback. Thanks for all the advice.

  • @goose1775

    Do your weight training first and your cardio after. This way you can get 100% to your weight training workouts.

  • Hey lee i got a question for you. Is this workout only for people who been on the gym alot or for anyone? I been going to the gym for 8 months now i was wondering if it would be a good workout for myself. Thanks

  • @tadeu207

    Anyone can use this workout, it's not just for advanced lifters.

  • @leemhayward Dear Lee, does your lower back ever hurt when you do the low cable cross over? Mine does and not sure why Thanks

  • @piesek56

    No, I've never had a problem with this move. But if they bother you, try doing pec deck flyes instead as your back will be supported by the machine.

  • i'll check it out this minute. but when you say "burn those muscles" or "it can really fry your chest" or "burn your shoulders", like the lasr exercise that you did on your shoulder workout video, and the pushups... when you say burn do you refer to it as burn as in helping you burn the fats or calories around those area to help you get ripped? or does burn or fry just promotes muscle growth, or both? dude! thanks for every response. it's helping me a lot.!

  • dude! the link says, page not found... btw, when you say fry or burn, does that mean remove the fat around the area, or bulk them up and help them get bigger?

  • @Wenzan3pm

    You can try the link again, I'm currently getting some work done on my website so you may have just clicked the link when the site was down. But it's back online now. Burn fat, etc. means to lose bodyfat and get the skin thin.

  • Ghostbuster's dude keeps walking around.

  • dude, nice vid... say, i workout my chest with this routine; bench press, incline, decline, flyes and pullovers. i dont want to be redundant with my workout, or target the same major area with two different positions. can you help me with this? what exercise should i add or remove? i was told not to do dumbell press when doing bench press but i can do it on another occasion and not do bench press, and that flyes and peck decks are the same. please respond. thanks.

  • @Wenzan3pm

    Choose 1 pressing exercise, 1 stretching exercise, 1 peak contraction exercise. This will hit all the major areas of your chest without being redundant.

  • @leemhayward thanks! to be honest, i was convinced by that, since i have been watching your vids on different areas to work on... i do have another question. i'm not familiar with these terms. what does compound, isolation, pressing exercise and peak contraction really means in body building? why do we need them, and why do we need stretching exercises? please enlighten me. i promise to subscribe. thanks!

  • @Wenzan3pm

    This is WAY to much info to cover in a single YouTube comment. But in my book "Blast Your Biceps" I cover all of this in great detail and explain exactly why all these variables are important to maximize your muscle gains in the gym. You can even check out the link below for more info:

  • your chest looks massive on 1st exercise :L love your vids man

  • i want to do her so badly!!

  • hey,lee. What do you suggest about the weight? Go for the highest you can or start from low and increase over time? And how frequent we should do this?

    thanks

  • @bzhang6

    Always start off conservation and increase gradually overtime. If you rush things and try to lift too much too soon you are just going to end up with an injury.

  • Very helpful actually :)

  • I try to emulate every detail. i.e. "pinkies on the ring? How tall are you? Would you throw in incline fly in this routine?

  • @sinfuldavy0

    I'm 5'6 tall.

    You can substitute incline or decline in place of flat bench.

  • 4:09 is that a ghost buster in the back ?? lmao

  • why do girls do chest exercises, what good does that do for them?

  • @BigNeffy

    Obviously you don't know much about the body, women have pec muscles just the same as men.

  • @leemhayward Obviously, but why do they want a rock hard chest

  • damn she has ass

  • how many sets and reps of each lee? 

  • @XChiefJustice

    Shoot for 3-4 sets per exercise and about 8-10 reps per set.

  • @leemhayward

    lee im on weight gainer and this guy who goes to my gym enters bodybuilding tournaments and he told me i should do less sets and eat when i get home but i already eat a lot and put on a few pounds im am currently 68 kilos. but im not sure because everyone tells me to do more sets but less reps when i get heavier and not to pay attention to what he tells me :( he tells me im burning muscle by doing too much sets but my friends tell me i got bigger :/ who do i believe please help :)

  • @XChiefJustice

    Go to my main channel page, scroll down that page, and download my FREE Bodybuilding Quick Start Kit. That includes a FREE Bodybuilding Nutrition e-Book that will explain what you need to eat in order to build muscle.

  • how many sets dp i pick out of all of them?

    

  • That was a wonderful class. I will practice it next time at gym thanks for this videos

  • What's a good substitute exercise for the cable crossover? I don't have access to any machines like that.

  • @R0RYRAM0ND0

    Buy a set of rubber fitness bands from BodyLasticBands . com you can use these in place of cables in the gym.

  • this guy looks like he could play bizarro in comparison with henry cavil being superman :)

  • dude i live in Brazil and since the day that a start to watch your workout routine really really help me out thanks for the videos...

  • yes i have to agree you make the best demonstration videos on youtube :) i always look up your routines to try something new :)

  • I liked seeing the male and female variations.

  • @NYCrazyRob Dude, there is no variation in any exercise between men and women.

  • your videos are so good, i have learnt a lot from watching them. you explain everything so clearly, thanks heaps!

  • @heavymetalboy1000

    Cool, I'm glad you enjoy my videos :-)

  • I wish my gym had those safety bars on bench press :(

  • im only 14 bu check out my fitness channel, im doing a 12 weeks tranformation :)

  • do you take protein powder and if so what kind?

  • guy hovering or something looks like hes out of ghostbusters with that gear :L

  • Forgot to ask you this in my last comment.. Do you have to include decline chest workout to build a good chest? Because i been told that flat-bench and incline are good enough.

  • @Srpskeoci

    You can certainly do decline work from time to time as another bench variation. But you are right in that the majority of chest training is usually done on the flat and incline benches.

  • Damn bro soo many variation of exercises idk how im gonna remember all this XD

  • Thumbs up if u saw a girl in the mirror FILMING this! :D

  • patricia has got it going on!!!

  • hey ive been doing my workouts slow like i got slow down, hold it, then go back up slow. is that good or is going at a moderate pase better???
