  • Those who are only in fitness for the money come and go. First there was standfirm, then Vince Del Monte, now there is sixpackshortcuts. Because I'm into fitness and bodybuilding for the love of the sport, I will still be here long after they have made their quick bucks and faded into obscurity. Their reward is money, mine is the satisfaction that I am helping people! What motivates me the most is every day when people come up to me and tell me how much I have changed their lives! Love it!

  • @Brizzle412 wasent really asking what you, so you need to chill.

  • @scooby1961 I have been lifting for about a month now and I have noticed my pecs are becoming more "lifted" and I can flex them a little. Is this a sign that I have good genetics?

  • @TheLiquidtornada your an idiot for that question....

  • hey be careful of your encyclopedia bro!

  • Synthol?

  • @c0nsci0usness no you retard

  • Nice "overdeveloped pecs" though!!! love your vids

  • Pushups actually gives you more effect than Bench press. Good info :)

  • Hey your probably not going to read this, but i know at least one of you will. Iv'e been inspired to make health and fitness videos and i want to spread the word about it. Would you please take a second to view my channel and tell me what you think about the video. Thanks guys

  • U da man

  • anyone who does flys with 110 lbs does not have muscles for show lmao

  • Dangg he is 50!!

  • @brentonwatters yeah he is 50 and still killin it ... he is my idol lol. You should also check out my channel, cuz i have free fitness videos up in the style of p90x and insanity. I also have added features like displaying the targeted muscles in each exercise and a countdown timer. If you like them please sub and share with your friends. Have a good one :)

  • Love the Theme! Always use it haha

  • @scooby1961 a lot of guys at gym [even the trainers] tell me i should touch my chest with the bar....however i only go down until my arms are parallel to the floor, never below. Do you think it hinders pec development by not getting the full stretch? In my opinion it's just asking for shoulder problems

  • @keshav0312 You won't have the same gains doing half reps as you would full reps. Much better gains when you touch the chest

  • @keshav0312 you want to bring the bar down to your chest so that way you can get the full range of motion of the chest muscle. You should also check out my channel, cuz i have free fitness videos up in the style of p90x and insanity. I also have added features like displaying the targeted muscles in each exercise and a countdown timer. If you like them please sub and share with your friends. Have a good one :)

  • The ending was EPIC.

  • scooby reads all those encyclopedias befor his workouts too... to build a mental sweat

  • are you homo?

  • @Brunodibcarneiro What is it with people thinking that people are "homo" just because they have good bodies? .It probably took him a good 4 years to get built like he is now. His vids are good and he is only educating us.

  • Comment removed

  • JESUS CHRIST! You're 50?! God I hope I look as good as you when I'm 50

  • :D:D

  • I love this video... really enlighting. Thanks! Plus, I love the ending.

  • hey scooby. all i have is a barbell :( so all i do is barbell curls :(

    i have 50 pound dumbells but thats just for my chest.

  • @gouki290 you should invest in adjustable dumbbells they will allow you to do a lot more than just one barbell. You should also check out my channel, cuz i have free fitness videos up in the style of p90x and insanity.

  • wow you really fooled me.. i had no idea that you were faking it looked so real.. LOL

  • That looked safe. And you looked like you struggled there.

  • hi scooby, ive been watching your vids and am doing the intermediate workout for the past few weeks, for the first time in my life i am learning the proper way to exercise and get fit. i hope you keep doing what your doing. your a true inspiration. I am 48 and am looking forward to many years ahead of good health and a good physique. Thank you very much.

  • Very nice rig for bench press.

  • Auf Wiedersehen

  • WHO GIVES A RATS PATOOTY?? LMFAO!!

  • How much kg is 100 lbs scooby??

  • @mrbamdad about 50 mrbamdad

  • @mrbamdad 45kg :)

  • Rat's patooty. I love how this guy, a magoo (sorry), extremely friendly, 50 yr. old guy is a ripped bodybuilder.

  • its not about the weight, but the way we do it properly.

  • @timbrandon94 your damn right about that ... no one should care how much weight you are lifting ... you should only be worrying about if you can do the weight with proper form or not. You should also check out my channel, cuz i have free fitness videos up in the style of p90x and insanity.

  • pec flys are the best chest exercise in my opinion. i havent benched in about 2 years. i see guys come in the gym and do about 10 sets on bench press and a few bicep curls then go home, it's a joke.

  • if he can DB fly 110x7 I bet his max bench is 4 plates easily, maybe even more (on each side)

  • Wath a ..

  • is wide in inner exercise for the chest is best

  • The Rock: Hey jeperoni, how much can you bench press?

    Body Builder: I can bench... (Interruption)

    The Rock: IT DOESNT MATTER HOW MUCH YOU CAN BENCH PRESS!!

  • @bbr11 lol i laughed so hard at that since i haven't thought about the rock in like 3 years

  • Is Push ups-Dumbell press-Flys a good chest workout? combined with a tricep workout completed at the same time.

  • @nugent321 i would say that chest workout is great. however, i would recommend you do biceps instead of triceps, and do triceps on a different day - with back for example. This is because if you work triceps after a chest workout, you wont be able to max out the reps, because they will already be fatigued from the chest press and pushups. It's up to you, thats just my advice.

  • hey scooby ive been following your videos for a year now and i had a question in your opinion what do you think the best lower ab exercise is because my upper abs are alot stronger than my lower abs and i was just wondering

  • I'll feed her hey. All feet are same.

  • @jizzum4000 Another great one!! I'll add it to my blog - "I'll feed her hey. All feet are same." :)

  • I can do more than scooby hahaha jk my max is 185 and i weigh 120 my goal is in the 200s thnk i can get it?

  • i can bench 160...lol but i look bad, u look good :P

  • holy crap dude you old but you a fuckin beast! congrats bro much respect!

  • Not to cap on scooby, as I have great respect for him, but is something wrong here? Even I (160lb) intermediate bodybuilder can do 140 lbs, how in the world can scooby only bench 100lbs? Especially at his heigh,weight and chest size o.O

  • @RippedSupreme bro hes benching 500 and some lbs not 100 lbs lol watch the begining

  • oh shit sorry didnt watch the full vid lol XD

  • @RippedSupreme LOL! I think you missed the joke :) I was faking people out into thinking that I was lifting some huge amount of weight, then I pan out to show that its only 100lbs :)

  • @scooby1961 he didnt miss the joke , hes fucking stupid , really you cant just be this fucking unskeptical

    kinda shows what morons populate earth

  • @RippedSupreme Lol how could he dumbell fly 220 lbs and only bench 100? haha it was a joke

  • @RippedSupreme

    1) His point is that it's unnecessary to compare Bench press "records", it's about what YOU do not what "James" does.

    2) In spite of that point, I'm pretty sure he can bench more than you.

  • @RippedSupreme Did you really not understand the point he was making? Wow, you're seriously dumb!

  • @RippedSupreme ARE AN IZIOT

  • @RippedSupreme

    I think he strains intentionally with light weight in order to make his videos more inviting to normal people. It makes it seem like his weight routine is similar to that of the average person watching this video. He can definitely put up much more weight than this. You don't get muscles like that from benching 100 pounds.

  • Dear Scooby,

    I train about 3 to 4 times a week. But to stay in shape I've got to almost STARVE myself by eating very little. That's why losing fat especially on my belly is very hard because if I would eat like a normal person does, I would be FAT. Ithink it has something to do with my thyroid. Do you know anything I could do?

  • all i do for my pecks is press ups on the floor..is that bad?

  • This Youtube video has been sponsored by Apple! Everybody on Youtube who sees this and texts "APPLE" to "46786" get a special gift from Apple!

  • Now I will only do squats and nothing else

  • How is it that you can fly 110 pound dumbells with one arm, but you can't bench 100 with two arms?

  • Comment removed

  • @PunkU180 are you retarded or just kidding?

  • Yeah, I too noticed that when I added on insane muscle mass that looks beautiful, I was not any insanely stronger...lol(only a little).

    A lot of people prefer to look good than be strong.(Bodybuilding vs Strongman)

    HOWEVER, beautiful muscle that shows are more developed muscles = strength available at different angles of lifting weights.

    Ex) Biceps = Hammer, Straight, Preacher curls all target different angles

    meaning a more developed/beautiful bicep. Overall Strength!

  • lol 100 is more than i can do

  • Bench Press - it doesn't matter how heavy you can lift unless u have a job as a human floor jack in an auto repair shop. YOU ROCK SCOOBY!

  • i really like the message from 3.11-3.16 :DDD

  • fukkwit cunt

  • good lesson...

  • Hey Scooby, can you tell me what the difference is between a smith machine and free weights and what are the pros and cons, what should people use and is there a huge difference in results?

  • Got me...lol

  • This was an awesome video. It just goes to show that it's all mental. Go at your own pace with your own goals and you can achieve anything. Don't let others discourage you, ruin your goals or cloud your vision!

    Check out a local site cheaper than any other supplement company out there!

  • I disagree. I find comparing myself to people helps me push my goals. When I worked out alone at home, I did little weights, same weight all the time. When I went to the gym, I seen my friends doing more weight than me. Seeing them do this weight challenged me to get to the same lift as them. I pushed myself and quickly reached that goal, and then some.

  • @Cooliorodriguez94 That's just your form of motivation though, you don't need to compare your max with others if you're not at their level yet. I just keep a record of my lifts and calories, making sure I hit my macros each day. Each week I up the weight by a couple kg and continue to grow according to how my body responds. There's not much point in trying to add 10kg on bench just because your friend can, I can understand getting motivation from it but don't increase if you're not ready.

  • yo scoobs! do u thnk 15 kg of dumbell in each arms will give me good nice lookin pecs (not a big 1, mayb medium just like those cover guyz if u kno wat i mean) if i do ur flys and your other exercises for chest? thats all i cn afford at d moment..i dnt go to gym coz im follown ur advise of jst do it at home n its much cheaper. thnkz.

  • @jerksjazz15 ... thats kinda a wierd question. You should choose a weight that lets you do 6 to 10 reps.

    You train till you cant do another rep, and that rep should somewhere be between 6 and 10. You work you way up till you can work with more weight . rinse and repeat.

  • @mirrorpiece yea wat i mean is if these 15kg dumbells (each) would give me good size pecs n look ripped? im only 5 foot 10 :) thnkz

  • what are the advantages of both High Intensity Training and High Volume Training.

  • Never liked bench press at all. Its ok with dumbells though

  • holy shit that bar bended!

  • Scobby, so can I do several variations of flyes in a single workout rather than the "usual" same way some people might do decline/flat/incline bench press on a chest day?

  • 2:54 A RAT'S PATOOTY!

  • I agree with you Scooby. Bench press is over rated. Mostly bragging rights. I was concerned with my bench press for a while and worked it a lot. I gained 40 pounds in 2 months. I can now bench 45 pounds over my weight. I started doing fly's and then my pecks actually started looking good. They gained size with only bench, but they didn't have the look. Now they look great. Thanks Scooby!

  • Im a starting out bodybuilder, do u recommend bench pressing and doing chest flys from the floor or should I do them from a bench? I can do them from a bench

  • @chitownbrowne I do ALL chest exercises on the floor, even when I am visiting a gym!!! I do not use benches because I like the floor to safely limit my range of motion to that which is safe for the shoulder, benches allow you to put your elbows behind your body which is asking for injury.

  • @scooby1961 I am glad I saw this, I was wondering if I was going down too far on my flies. I have pectus excavatum and I think I will start doing my lifts on the floor since I have a smaller chest than most people.

  • My favorite video of all your channel for the topic, ending and good sense of humor!!!!!!

  • @VanillaCokee2011 i dont understand your humor

  • OMG :D

    I was like.. what the heck? is he going to high heavy :O?

    i really belived it, good job :)

  • Star Wars ending. Lol.

  • Here are the lyrics for the ending song: "Tah tah tah taaaah taaaahhh tah tah tah taaaaah tah tah tah tah taaaaaah taaaah tah tah tah taaaaaaah... Taahh tahh tah tah taaaah taaaaah tah tah tah tahh taaaaaahh tahhh TAH TAH TAH TAAAAAARRGH"

  • I wish u were my father :((((

  • but seriously how can you only lift 100lb cmoon you fly a 110lb with one hand man.... aah I know you lift more than 100lb on bench, I can BET! Yeah, ofcoruse you aint lifting 560 or close but you certainly can lift 177lb

  • @leviterande I think he was joking dude, his point was that it doesn't matter how much weight you can bench, that's why he made the obvious joke of only being able to bench 100 lbs.

  • @leviterande

    of course he could if he tried to. that was acting....He's just trying to say in this video that benching is overrated.

  • Thums up if you also think that is the the best SCOOBY video so far!

  • Dahh Dah De De De Dahhhh Deh, Da Da Da Daaaa Da Da Da Da Daaaaa Dah, Dah Deh Deh Duhhhh

  • bet your power level isn't over 9000.

  • @Midnightsnack456 You better wear scouter to be sure :)

  • I love the ending xD

  • love the rom on the flys

  • Haay Scoopy i wana ask u abt making video abt triceps supersetss ! [plzz

  • Awesome 8)

    A question: the other day I was helping my grandpa remove a welded U beam in the basement. The room was filled with coal and so we couldn't cut it without potentialy becoming french fries, alas he brought a bigass sledgehammer. It was quite an intriguing workout. Do you know any sledge exercises? I've seen quite a bunch of them on YT, but they use mommentum too much.

    Another question would be, what do you eat for your ligaments? I've not seen many people with such robust/thick ones.

  • Can you post a video about the books I can read to further my knowledge in fitness please? Or can anyone help with this. Like Macronutriants and the human body. Bones and muscles. Is it sports science?

  • This was super funny!!!

  • Hi scooby! I want to ask you smth. When i work on chest and do incline bench press or bench press or do push-ups at home my left pec works more than my right pec and the other day i feel more pain on it. Do you think that i need to continue to do the exercises ??? I watch your videos and i do the exercises right. TNX...

  • I completely agree with your view on benching, and feel that dumbell flys and presses give me much better results. I'm glad someone like you said it!

  • that's incredible that you can bench 100 pounds, but thats very dangerous the way you set up your bench workout.

  • @Mak3rful

    lol

  • lol

  • dear Scooby, Do you exercise EVERY day? At a normal workout day, how many hours do you work out? thank you, Scooby. You are the man! :)

  • @1pcGAMER4ever1 you should check out his site, it tell you all the answers you just asked.

  • @1pcGAMER4ever1

    yeah as mentioned check out Scooby's site ( scoobysworkshop ) it will have the info you need.

    and to workout every day would be a tad too much, you need resting time, now as to actually HOW many days you workout depends on your routines, if you are doing full body routines then i don't see it good going over 4 times a week.. if you have separate days for muscle groups ( not what a beginner should be doing imo) then up to 6 days.

    also average workout should take about 1 hour

  • @xenonnati I know this stuff.. there is no truble in exercising every day by exercising a different muclegroup every time..

  • HAHAHA I absolutely loved this video!

  • wow, that bar really bends... cool!

  • Dear Scooby,i have to ask you a question.Do you go to a gym or do you workout only at home?

  • scooby is star wars fan :D

  • who is panning the camera?

  • This guy is 50 - 54? Incredible! He's got the body of a 20 year old.

  • @TaffTalk This guy? He is the one and only 'Scooby'. :)

  • Im 16 years old and 200 pounds Iv been woeking out for a couple months and havnt seen or really felt any results what should i do?

  • @immortalrapper The only thing that matters is that you get a little stronger each month. Either lifting a little more weight or doing a few more reps.

    If you don't have any of these results then you need to make a completely new workout routine.

  • I'm bout 5"7

  • I'm 15 years old and weigh about 110-pounds. What should I do to gain muscle?

  • @jessereal28 eat pussy lots of protein in it.

  • @SaltySangster haha nice

    

  • Star Wars!!!

  • As always your videos are awesome!!!

    

  • wow it's amazing in what shape he is in his age O.o I'm really impressed

  • 4:29 did he say "scheiße" -- the german word for "shit/fuck" ??

  • @Irgmann I dont know what I said but it wasnt "Scheisse". I do like that word though, its a great way for me to swear in English without really swearing.

  • @scooby1961 You said "Did i say that?" =)

  • @scooby1961 u siad "did i just say that" at 4:29

  • @scooby1961 you said "did i say that" i think

  • @Irgmann well, scheisse has only one bedeutung and it is shit. fuck could be translated into german ficken
