Brandon Curry UNLEASHED! Season 2 / Episode 1

[The49ers52]

that hack squat machine looks more like a reverse leg press cause iv never seen one like that at my 24 hour fitness gyms lol

[127super]

he is definetly one of the best bodybuilders not yet competing for the olympia title

[thamoslil]

exercise physiologis and you're on youtube ok sure thing buddy

[ObscureBeast]

This guy looked better smaller.

[TheFarislove]

king kong

[thejayslick]

6ft 2in. 176lbs i'm working out with 415 bout 30 reps before i go down weight. Wondering how i could possibly get a sponsor.

[4215physio]

@thejayslick By spending less time asking questions on youtube and more time eating and training.

[nisarakbari]

wtf he does little reps on leg press ronnie goes all the way down

[StrongBiceps]

@nisarakbari , IF THATS WHAT WORKS FOR HIM WHAT DOES IT MATTER HOW LOW HE GOES ON THE PRESSES?

[ObamaTheRealLoser]

@nisarakbari That's the thing; he was prob trying to show off with that leg press and waited to show you all that weight after the actual reps of another full set. I usually do HEAVY partials after a set of 4 or 5. It fatigues the legs all the way and shocks them try it with hack squats or the leg press.

[shanahnah2]

@nisarakbari hes keeping the tension on his quads, going all the way down brings the glutes into work

[darrylmathew576]

@nisarakbari ronnie was mr olympia... this is this dudes first show...

[SinisterSkip]

With half reps you focus more on the quads and less on the glutes/hamstrings and by using more weight you still can get the same intensity, just more focussed on the quads, which is what they're aiming for.

[ILiv4This85]

yea he uses steroids...and ur point is...i'm an exercise physiologis and I can garauntee you that if you take the same steroids he's taking and go and do whatever the hell you do in the gym you would never look like him...its called hours and hours of constant dedication and hard work...steroids just help them recover so that they can go back and do it the next day...clueless disrespectfull little people with small persons complex...

[arheedee]

@ILiv4This85 yeah, that's all steroids do, they help people recover so that they can go back the next day. I think an afternoon nap takes care of that problem. Steroids do A LOT more.

[steflotti105]

@arheedee if you can train again after an afternoon nap then more power to u but i no for a fact you cant

[ILiv4This85]

yea he uses steroids...and ur point is...i'm an exercise physiologis and I can garauntee you that if you take the same steroids he's taking and go and do whatever the hell you do in the gym you would never look like him...its called hours and hours of constant dedication and hard work...steroids just help them recover so that they can go back and do it the next day...clueless disrespectfull little people with small persons complex...

[MrCulturismo]

muy bueno



[Cooter1Brown]

Steroids.

[WILJACJOE]

@Cooter1Brown NO SHIT

[aggrotv2]

he sucked at the tampa pro -.-

[rkempey]

Brandon didn't even place top 5 at the Tampa Pro...Better luck next time man!

[WorldSuperLegend]

@rkempey Where did he place???????

[rkempey]

@WorldSuperLegend idk, but not top 5 which is the only thing that they announced. I was pretty surprised too because he had a great posing routine and he looked good.

[B2dWee]

@WorldSuperLegend 6th

[XodusOnan]

seems like he's doing half reps to focus on the muscles surrounding his knees because it's obvious that they need to be developed more. My legs are very similar to his. Maybe I should do the same.

[dobberdoss]

what is the point of 'pussy reps'?

[dobberdoss]

Big muscles and as stiff as a sail board! Just stupid

[obviouslylee]

Anyone who knows Brandon knows that he is trying to bring up is Quads and his Calves for his upcoming pro career. Those are the two things he was critiqued about the most at his past performances. And also, anyone who knows anything about bodybuilding knows that in order to use only your quads and not your glutes/hams, on a lot of leg exercises, you need to limit your rang of motion, and keep specific placement of your feet. This is obviously what he is doing.

Brandon is cool s#%t

[shadowdragon888]

When did dennis wolf join BSN?????, i thought he was with NUTREX with Mark Dugdale???????????.

[s0ldier898]

@shadowdragon888 about 3 months nutrex dropped him cause he wasnt doing shit and they signed king kahn to take his place. now kahn is out for a whole season

[tigopsy]

Orra ja fiz leg press, 45o com 300 kilos e com muito mais amplituda...hein ...

vamos provar que não é só esteróides q fazem esse cara fica grande...

[WorldSuperLegend]

Why do they tape up their knees and wear a belt like that??

[tskfromnzl]

@WorldSuperLegend bro, the tape and belts are for support, if you put such heavy wieghts on those jointds they will get injured, its just safer

[apierre6]

@delro84

Pros almost never lock out on exercises so it looks like they're doing half reps

[sti1tz]

@apierre6 um, those are half reps. plain and simple

[Tra1n3rfromH3ll]

@delro84 have you heard of anabolic steroids lately??? many pro shows are not tested; and many athletes cycle on and off anabolic steroids. you and them are at different levels for what it takes to build mass. building an athletic body involves full ROM and practical exercises.

[Tra1n3rfromH3ll]

@delro84

building mass involves whatever they do for themselves.

[mj23johnny]

his lower legs look small for the rest of his body

[WorldSuperLegend]

@mj23johnny Hence why his legs are his his main focus XD

[elmagodelossemaforos]

@delro84 they don't get huge that way. What you see them doing right now is what works the best for them at this current time. He has stated in previous episodes that his quads are a weakness and he needs to bring them up and doing leg presses with only the first half of the ROM places more emphasis on the quads. Do you think the newbs in the gym know what the hell they're doing. They don't have any weakpoints because their whole body is their weakpoint

[dirtheaven52]

how can i put this video on my ipod?

[dirtheaven52]

how can i put this video on my ipod?

[dirtheaven52]

how can i put this video on my ipod?

[hardstyler53]

notice he squats with 4 plates but when he re racks he has 5 on there

[thalles5]

LOL, the comments from the "EXPERTS" here a hilarious!!!

[Mexavier010]

The Man.

[dirtheaven52]

whos the younger guy that trains with him?

[siclgnarkill]

yea it dosent matter wether u so called "do them the right way" if u are doing the work , thats allllll you!!! and it shows look at his legs c'mon

[carnagebeatz]

half reps are good to keep the hamstring out of the movement.. Hamstrings are a different day....trust me, that weight and that ROM is breaking down the quad just fine. Brandon has made good progress with his legs..

[mgmetz327]

how do you get the shirt with the skinny string around the traps?

[dirtheaven52]

Lookin good Brandon, anyone know the music?

[Tra1n3rfromH3ll]

Half reps allow a different kind of training. Furthermore, if someone has delicate joints, doing full reps with extremely heavy weights could severely injure them for the rest of their life.

Soulman, i appreciate the logic you employ.

[dve8692]

the hack squat part has to be the funniest, if you look closely at the weight it literally moves about 3 inches on each "rep", lol.

[nightfire4107]

i want to make another comment saying this is such a clear a HD video. It's awesome!!!

[nightfire4107]

does brandon take roids?

[ahmadhamad]

@nightfire4107 Of course. Every professional bodybuilder does.

[nightfire4107]

@ahmadhamad i know that lol. but i was curious about brandon. cuz i keep hearing he is blessed with genes

[ahmadhamad]

@nightfire4107 You bet. Brandon, along with tons of other bodybuilders, are really gifted genetically. In addition to diet, intense exercise, and steroids, genetics play a huge role in how one looks and develops muscle. Steroids just take these genetics to a whole other level.

[DerekChung2011]

they put 495 on then he walks it out but then they show him doin 405 , then show him putting up 495 agian

[keenanmeitner]

why is he a professional bodybuilder and all you guys arent... Hmm he obviously has some reason to why he is doing what hes doing... CUZ IT WORKS

[Ha429rout]

you people are dumb, clearly he knows what he is doing.

[pellepellecorps]

when is bracndon gonna actually make a real training video witout the commecials and bullshit interview talking..? i respect the promotion but in this new season the fans were really lookin forward to seeing some real full hour long or more training videos from him.. even if it was in the trenches

[hungarianbeast]

if i seen this in my gym i would laugh my ass off xDDD simply a joke, hey branon check my channel if you wanna see some real squats ;)

[viscera2003]

they arent half reps its a form of isotension called "pulsing" its done in the pre contest phase and works the fast twitch fibers more.

[ttomi5]

very good rookey phisic! /but he should learn how to use the bandage!!!!

[birdman2388]

guess im heading to tampa, gotta see him compete.

[marineman410410]

i wish i could leg press over 1,000 lbs.

[NoHomosPls]

is it possible at 4:22, those locks came loose and the equipment came crashing down on him? hes just laying there after the reps... pretty vulnerable if it so

[Phatfarm1980]

He's looking alot bigger since the last time I seen him!

[bm2g]

half reps

[Salamandria23]

BSN PLEASE STOP PHOTOSHOPING THINGS! 5 plates then only squatting 4? Do you think him squatting 5 is gonna make him look more hardcore? Stop the editing and trying to make him to more weight than he can handle. People will still like him the same sheesh....

[TraumaER]

and who's he trying to fool? he ain't benching 405lbs with correct form (stop having him sit on the bench with 405lbs racked LOL)

[TraumaER]

i doubt he can do 225lbs squats with correct form (below parallel) - yeah i said it and what?! :D

and don't give me the "he's too big bullshit", ronnie coleman makes him look like a baby and he got LoW like lil jon on 800lbs squats

[MrCatalano14]

@TraumaER I bet he can out lift you in every single exersize you do, so dont be so quick to judge his form or compare him to people like ronnie colman. Why dont you compare him to yourself? Oh thats right your a bitch I forgot

[TraumaER]

@MrCatalano14 i would doubt that he can out deadlift me but i may be wrong; and if it comes to form, i am pretty sure i can compete against him in squats (the ones where you go below parallel); obviously he is much bigger than me and not hating that he is on gear; but his form sucks supreme balls for not just a pro, but anyone;

btw: my lifts are 515lbs dead, 405lbs squat (ATG)

also prediction; curry never wins a pro show that has at least 1 legit pro also competing

[MrCatalano14]

@TraumaER Hmm well I looked at your vids and he has a far better physique than you do. He does this for a living though so id expect that. But because he does this for a living and looks the way he does I think he probably does reps the way he does for a reason. He probably has teams of trainers and dietians that know more about this than you or I and his workout is taylor made to fit his strengths best

[TraumaER]

@MrCatalano14 yeah his legs really complete his body - not! in 5 years people will be saying "Brandon who?" all because his ego won't let him drop the weight; go see how jay cutler trains; ego left at the door, lighter weights, more controlled, 100x better form

[MrCatalano14]

@TraumaER Ahaha who the fuck are you. At least people know him. He is big and in good shape and I dont get why that is so difficult for you to accept

[TraumaER]

@MrCatalano14 He is a pro doing a leg workout of a noob or either a lazy egomaniac fucker; usually i would never say it but without gear, his legs would look like skinny dog shit; they are only a slight improvement with gear; tata!

btw: i know bodybuilders and i know how the great ones train legs; ronnie would probably spit up BSN Syntha watching brandon do legs LoL

[houzenga75]

@TraumaER Your such an idiot its funny.... He actually has a college degree in physiology, so if you think you have any room to tell him that he is doing something wrong then you must have a chemical imbalance bud

[houzenga75]

@TraumaER He warms up with 405 you are a pussy in comparison

[TraumaER]

@houzenga75 warms up with the same shitty form; A+!

[ProTimMartin]

Maybe the worst form I've seen...

[TheNyghtShyft]

Been using the NO-Xplode for about a week and I can feel it. My muscles feel harder and the pump lasts way longer than without it. I just started using Cell Mass today...lets see if it works when I go to the gym tomorrow. Also tried the BSN protein powder..tastes pretty good

[dne90danny]

BSN is over-hyped crap with fancy marketing

[TheNyghtShyft]

@dne90danny Been using it for a week now and I can feel a difference. My energy level is elevated and my strength has improved just in the last week.

[gmanthebeast1]

@dne90danny actually it works really well,you probably just have shitty genetics

[jab4240]

his ROM is f*cking pathetic that would explain his lack of development there

[at4892]

@jab4240 haha yeah, tell the pro trained by haney how to train

[TraumaER]

@jab4240 agree 100%

[nikola133]

I like how when he takes the weight out its 5 plates, but then it shows him doing 4.

[a25z]

what kind of leg press was that, ? i think he needs to watch Blood and Guts by Dorian Yates

[arild2]

nobody but himself knows that it help and if your watching the results you know for damn sure that it does

[teoboboy]

4:29 lolz

[blkhercules2365]

WOW 36 45LB plates on the leg press??? INCREDIBLE

[SOuLmAN1984]

Everyone's ripping on him for doing half reps. I agree that he is, but you know what? Look at his legs and his physique overall. There's probably a reason he's keeping the range of motion to what it is. I know with other muscles he does a "full" range so maybe with his quads there's a logic to this.

Best of luck in Tampa Brandon!

[TraumaER]

@SOuLmAN1984 actually his legs are his weak point and probably due to his shitty workout - and i used to like him too what a shame...

[ProJumpstyler]

@SOuLmAN1984 when i train legs like that i i m scared my legs muscles get shorter

[rantanen1]

@SOuLmAN1984

its just hilarious, he isnt a powerlifter, his goal is not to lift the most weight and do "correct" reps, his goal is to build muscles...

people are just amazingly dumb

[Bsnakes]

@SOuLmAN1984 I totally understand where you are coming from, but I gotta say this. These are some pretty awful reps. I mean, I, when I first started training, did reps like this. Nothing every grew. Lowered the weight, full range, everything is shooting up! Brandon obviously has help, which I have 0 issue with at all, in fact I'll probably take shit in my life, but the thing is, I dont have a clue what these reps could be doing. MAD PROPS to his physique and I take nothing away from him.

[hardstyler53]

@Bsnakes dose it look like nother grew for him?

[Bsnakes]

@hardstyler53 obviousyl you didn't read shit. basically said I take nothing away from him. Said the reps looked ridiculous but OBVIOUSLY they work for him. I'm saying they might not be beneficial at all without steroid use, which is why I NEEDED FULL REPS to grow. You can train with some degree of improper form and still grow on steroids. Glad I could clarify

[hardstyler53]

@Bsnakes allso doing half reps shortens the muscle maybe thats what hes looking for every movment you do your shorting and then lengthing the muscle at the end

[zachskates15]

@SOuLmAN1984 probably has something to do with how high of reps he is doing. he said in another video he does 25 reps because its a short range of motion

[zachskates15]

@SOuLmAN1984 with the kind of weight he does it puts alot of stress on the knees, also i heard when your knees go past 90 degrees your hamstrings are activated

[lennardivoodoo]

@SOuLmAN1984 The lower you go, the more you activate the glutes/hams. There's an overwhelmingly strong possibility that he was keeping the ROM short to isolate his quads.

[isascam]

@SOuLmAN1984 the half reps help to isolate the quads and keep the hams and glutes out of the movement. most of the criticusm he got last year was aimed at his quads. whatever brandon does he does for a reason. keep going boyy!!

[kgcage14]

@SOuLmAN1984 vastus medialis and lateralis of your quads are hit the hardest in around the first 15degrees range of motion

[christopherguindon]

mad props to Brandon, he used to be cut and proportional, but now he has awesome mass to back that up

[elemental57]

brandin thinks he's ronnie coleman on the leg press haha.

[hudsonjamesc]

ok dude if you're going to hack squat at least lower the weight down

[RINO92xxl]

looks like he has gone abit chubby in the face not good news

[bowserone]

who are the two white guys with him? they should introduce them, for non iffbb guys they are jacked!!(least i dont think they are iffbb)

[dearagony13]

Leg pressing wise he needs to work on his range of motion.

[Churchboy03]

@dearagony13 No, he needs to work on LOWERING the weight.

[medotou]

Looking great, I couldn't believe the size he has added, especially on his legs. If he nails his conditioning at this contest I don't see anyone beating him.

[blinkblinkblinkkdd]

That's what am talkin about! All my 3 brothers never came fans of bodybuilding until they I showed them Brandon "especially the 2004 beach footage". Can't wait to see more. I actually admire those people who are making real use of sport enhancing drugs. People thinks like this: "They blame people, not the situation."

Wish you all luck Brandon. Why don't you come by to Kuwait one time? And for BSN... keep pushin him hard.

[whosnexttt]

Man he has gotten bigger, and its good to see him doing free weight squats, his legs should start growing like weeds now! But....whats with the poor form on the leg press, hacks and extensions!!! He gota leave that ego at the door! His leg development will always haunt him if he doesnt get his form right!

[darkknight17]

@whosnexttt

I was thinking the EXACT same thing.. He seems to be doing half reps on the leg press

[hitmancoolio]

@whosnexttt I do agree that his form is off, obviously needs to get heels to ass. But what do us meer mortals know?! haha.

[denyingdestruction]

@bigdude90 where do you see his stretch marks? I'm lookin' and can't see them....

[hitmancoolio]

BEAST
