[bigbitchfucker69]

[nintendoelite51]

excellent facial expression xDD

[jonnyffaf]

hey scooby can you do this excersize combined with other dumbell excersizes if so how many is best? because usually i do about 4 excersizes for my biceps but with this excersize i find it hard to that many...let me know if u can :) thanks

[fliesenfuzzi]

Hi Scooby!

First of all I want to say thanks for beeing my teacher!

My question:

Could I do this exercise doing hammer curls as well?

Danke&Gruß an HANS?

Thomas

[jlpogi23]

opps..at-least i have a comment before you disable comments :D

[badbadger08]

You are the man scooby! I did this today and it felt great!

[MigetBanger5000]

hey man can you put a video up for exercises for deltoids? thanks

[TravisBsaves48594]

for deltoids just shit on a pregnant girl's chest or do cockpushups...have a good time lifting DUDE:)

[skemeB34]

is it necessary for the girl to be pregnant? because unfortunatly i dont know any pregnant females to use. also, how do you perform the cock push ups?

thank you

[pheonix11525]

hey scoob whats the weight to curl ratio? how much more weight should i use than my normal curl? 15lbs?? 10? 20? let me know

[yofavcracka]

notice he said about 10 percent more. so if you're curling 40lbs, just put 4-5lbs more on and you'll be fine.

[calbeeeeee]

gah my elbow tip hurts when i do french press/skull crushers or any exercise involving mostly triceps...can anyone help me?

[Unknownz00]

Yeah mine did that aswell, but aslong as i did a good warm-up it went away, Try adjusting your grip to see what fits you.

[disappears]

Hey Scooby what do I do if one arm is bigger than the other.

[screwyvids1234]

thats natural in everybody

[jonymx]

how much is there¿

[MCBigglestv]

ok im having a hard time with this: i do my resistance workouts and cardio vascular activites almost everyday and i dont know if i should consider doing my resistance before or after my cardiovascular activities, can anyone help thnks.

[hypergamerman]

If you want strength, do cardio after so you where your muscles down then the cardio will add to it. For endurance, do vice-versa, so the muscle workout adds to being already tired, thus making them endurable.

If I'm wrong, someone correct me.

[biggy1dick]

dumb ass you are wrong

[1nate87]

fuck there is so many idiots out there

[nenna69]

Scooby. Would you do this in conjunction with other bicep exercises when doing your workout or do you only do this when plateau busting?

[shreksthong]

to the twitter comment lol

[trutyger09]

One guy below had a good point to make, Scoob, without sounding insulting. You make good vids, but you make your movements look so painful! Even when it's small weight, I have to cringe a little when watching you. Sorry.

[turkeyhumper534]

haha i luv scoobies facial expressions they make me laugh every time! i say let hiim make the expresions. GO SCOOBY!

[efil4aggin92]

i just got back doing this from the gym!

[bibo170]

Scooby, you should go on twitter sir!!

[alogli]

no, he shouldn't...

it's better if he completely focuses on his youtube channel and keep this good work up!

[shreksthong]

No he shouldnt, that would make him a homosexual

[cinvhetin]

Lol, pure win.

[transplant07]

scooby~

i jus had a kiney transplant and wanted to ask ya what can i do i have lost all my muscle do to the toxins and posions eating away at my muscles then i was put on dialysis for 2 yrs then i jus gotten my transplant any suggestions.. Thanx for time

[datank64]

hey scooby ur vids are great im a football player and im trying to gain muscles mass and weight while burning fat . Is it possible to gain weight while burning fat?

[RainonMee]

Practically any exercise routine you do that builds muscle and effectively burns fat off will raise your weight regardless. The misconception about weight is that the more muscle and less fat, the lighter you are, however muscle in fact weighs much more than its equivilent in fat. Thus naturally, if you replace the fat in your body with muscle, you'll weigh more and be much stronger. It's a win/win situation

[michaelheskett6666]

lol i got baerly got any musle and if i do that i might die...

ps im am not a nerd i do work out some time just dont commet on tht ty

[skratt]

I used to have a problem muscle size gain... although i was pretty strong for my weight... the trick is really about HOW and WHAT u eat

[kmegrou59]

without insulting..MAN YOU'RE LOOK SO FREAKING FUNNY WHEN YOU ARE LIFTING HEVY WEIGHTS!! HAHAHAH..but you still will be the best work out channel of youtube

[Sprounch1]

good work scooby,

i recall you referring to this exorcise in another video of yours. you also recommended to do this no more then twice a month. why is that?

[husseler]

and jizzed in my pants

[ezravdb]

1:08 AHGAHAHAHAHAAHAA

[PeachFuzzzzzz]

lmfao.

[aleterra]

This is the best channel for bodybuilding!!!! It's inspiring, honest, practical and unbiased. Thanks Scooby!!

[chrishelley17]

manicmauri is a retard. scooby your the best body builder i've ever seen and i will always come to your videos when I want help. thanks

[erikman89]

thats sweet. nice video, great tips!! 5*****

[STPfreak2000]

dude ur like 250 pounds 0.0

[MrReGree]

на Яна Коллера похож немного :)

[Oxide008]

Scooby1961, You've inspired from last year, and it's really helped me gain more muslce, i feel alot better and i have more energy, Thanks a bunch and keep up the good work!

[CrazeeGiant]

Damn this is great. I've been working out for a little more than three years now and I have a fantastic workout with an insane personal trainer. Biceps for me seem to be the one spot where I have the most trouble developing mass, and I usually don't feel that nice 'soreness' afterwards. So I gave this a try and damn! What a great workout! I think I'm gonna add this to my workout permanently. Thank you Scooby, you're a beast!

[obamatran]

I don't think. it is the best way to do that. because you force yourselt pretty much dude. you may vomit blood someday dude. that is call overweight.

[Ilovehossain]

you have a big ass arm cool dude

[manicmauri]

also are u a fitness qualified person i doubt it.

also ur triceps work out video is totally wrong, u dont have the bar near at all at ur face. n u dont lock ur elbows in unless u wana break the bones inside n tendons. im graduating at the end of the year in fitness, shows how much u know.

[maxboost724]

and its also at the end of the video in fancy star wars format.

[ojaya15966]

You're just a straight up hater and to make it worse you're an elitist on the internet. Geez

[manicmauri]

i believe your videos  should come wif a notice precaution, i dont think u realize how many ppl u affect showing videos like this, wif ppl that dont understand the issues n proper form to use.

i believe the force negative should only be used maybe 1 a fortnight, ur technique in this video is poorly seen wif back arched , legs not in proper form n weight obviusly to high for u to only do 12 reps on left side n more then that on other side.

[maxboost724]

You want to speak about getting educated? At the side over there --->

[missiowa85]

manicmauri I think you wasted your money on your degree in ftiness! have you ever lifted weights a day in your life? come back and comment when you've developed some muscle mass and you've got some life experience! you can't weight 130 lbs soaking wet! you should do some of Scooby's workouts!

[RoaringTiger281]

5 stars for the groaning and face expressions ! Seriously good lesson Scooby!

[bebeoploki]

my faces are extremely stoopid too

[div5730]

...i like way how u show (encourage)way to do it right.

[Benny2503]

lmao funny faces

[aleterra]

scooby, what's the last words you say in this video?

[rezfromdead]

"forced negatives"

;]

[XxHydrilusxX]

Scooby I'd love it if you could do more videos on negative reps for different muscles.

I don't know why I didn't think of these before but I had hit that plateau for arm curls forever and I just started with these negatives and it's helped a lot already, so thanks!

[shannonmoorecutie]

orgasms and orgasm face lol !

[shannonmoorecutie]

haha his head looks smaller than its suppose to be lol

[Kcookie15ify]

i think you better check ur pants after that one

[Go2b3d]

5 stars for the noises

[krarox]

his teeth :lol

[Galiraming05]

Hey brother Scooby! If im just training my strength, can in skip the cardio?

[5dArK5sOuL5]

you will gain fat

[zer0nix]

imho your cardiovascular strength will determine how well you can strength train. that said, i will defer to one who is much better built than i am... scooby?

[jessemiles320]

You'll want to lay off cardio if you are trying to build size/strength. Your body needs carbs for strength during resistance training. If you are packing in a lot of cardio while trying to do this, you will result in not as much energy for your lifting as you would. I would recommend doing 3-4 exercises for each major muscle group, 4 sets of 8/10 reps on each exercise. Limit your breather between sets to 30/45 seconds. The breather in between sets is crucial. Make the 8/10th rep difficult.

[quincy3521]

cardio will help build muscle. better cardio = more oxygen to your muscles

[jessemiles320]

Muscle isn't built from oxygen. The amount of oxygen delivered to your body is determined by how you perform the exercise. Running on a treadmill then doing a set of curls isn't going to be any more beneficial than not running on a treadmill. There is no secret to building muscle mass. Take in more calories than you work off. And make about 40% of your calorie intake protein.

[quincy3521]

your retarded. Tell me then.... Why does jay cutler do cardio twice a day.. better cardio will help build muscle, PERIOD

[BDuv1]

walking cardio yes but jogging cardio no

[quincy3521]

no. He runs.twice a day

[aleterra]

watch scooby's videos on cardio, anything that elevates your heart rate into the target zone is good cardio. And cardio is the way to be lean.

[jessemiles320]

He probably does it to stay lean. CARDIO HAS NO EFFECT ON MUSCLE BUILDING. Dude, you're just some guy that watches videos on here and thinks he knows what he's doing. You don't know what you're talking about.

[quincy3521]

you could be more wrong. better cardio= better muscle pump, which meens you can work out longer. If your suckin wind in the gym, your not gonna work your muscles as hard as you can....its not fucking rocket science, RETARD

[jessemiles320]

You are an idiot. Your body doesn't rely on the same source for energy during cardio(running) as it does when you workout(resistance training). During reps, your body uses Creatine Andenosine Triphosphate(Creatine ATP) for it's source of energy. Your body does not use Creatine ATP as the source for energy during cardio workout. So if they use two different sources, how could one benefit the other? Hmm... You are just some guy that lifts weights and reads magazines. Shut up.

[thesepipesRclean]

You are obviously the idiot , look up the Krebs cycle moron . Creatine in any form is not in it , therefore creatine cannot produce energy . Not energy for weightlifting , running , or any other activity . Creatine has to do with transporting water into muscle cells . You got it confused poosibly with acetyl coA which ia a different thing altogether . Try reading a science book instead of a GNC product label .

[jessemiles320]

No creatine itself cannot. Creatine combined with ATP. Your body uses this form of energy source for about the first 15 seconds as an energy source. It's used an explosive energy source. I don't shop at GNC. I have two certifications by the National Academy of Sports Medicine. What do you have? A subscription to Men's Health?

[R0JIBLANC0]

pause at 2:03.

[HongKongHalen]

aaaahahahahahahaha

thats funy

hahaha

[sephiro50000]

lmao

[yab47]

that guys butt crack must smell like shit and have stuck hard and dry crap thats why he grunts like that and makes that facial expressions

[ZZchaz]

That's gross, stop trolling.

[teegbeville]

"THATS ULL I GUT IN ME" Pro

[snapitoff2002]

Be careful doing forced negatives..  I ripped my bicep going overboard with them, and then trying to do a positive lift on the preacher bench. Now my left bicep has a slight dent in it from where it ripped :(

[Jester2014]

BEST FACIAL EXPRESSIONS EVER

[michael411024]

how many sets/ reps?

[LuDimezofKush]

For an older adult ur in peak shape

[aleterra]

Scooby, your videos are great, I began following your advice in mid-february and so far I've lost 14 Kgs and I already see my abs!!!!!!! Thanks a lot! Keep it up!!!!

[moneyjr1122]

hey that's what i do, but never knew it was called this :P

[taethekoreanking]

Your face expression is my motivation =D

[falling0331]

facial expression lmao

i love you man

[brokenfilmspro]

i work out on my arms alot and the other stuff i cant do and im really younger the n most body builder im still in middel school so can u help

[purifythespirit]

you're still young so my advice to you is take it easy on your body. i know young people don't like to listen to anybody but just understand that your body is still undergoing development and hardcore weightlifting will do nothing but wreck your back and leave you in pain when you're older. just take it easy

[LauZhang]

Im so happy i found you scoob! ive recently started a diet and ive lost like 42 pounds in about 3 months (was 240) the food thing i researched heavily on and do have a real good diet now, but these exercises man im so happy the crunches and bicycles im loving and cant wait to grow stronger! eat less, exercise more! gotta love your motto :)

[comatarmsFTW]

lol i use to do this, but it felt like cheating it still does, but thanks scooby i know what to do if i see slow results

[jefflukka]

Hello!

I've watched every single video you've made and i just wanted to say you have been great help.

My bro and i started working out a while ago and we were all over the place, but these short clips tought us things you don't learn on your own while working out.

by any chance we could get any grips workout?

thanks again for being here for us.

[soulisland]

really good i don't have this problem I just can't put on weight and i get bored after a month of making my self eat more to try and get around this. So the end result is always a waste of my time because i just can't get a good body size i'm 5.9ft and am 126 pounds =\ i would like to be more but i don't know what i need to eat to effectively start gaining healthy weight.

i see a lot of videos for losing weight none for gaining, please help!

[michaelzwarszawy]

just have 20-25g of protein in 5-7 meals and train hard by lifting weights consistently and you will gain healthy weight

[Keysi4life]

is it true that when your hungry your body eats away at your fat first please respond anyone thanks

[BigMat478]

it can eat away both fat and muscle. depending on various things. Keep a high protein diet and eat regularly. Keep your carbs low and probably if you'll loose weight it will be just fat

[comatarmsFTW]

don't go starving yourself, if your not getting what you need your body will take it from itself,like you don't have enough protein it will take it from your muscles, not enough calcium it takes it from yor bones, but please eat lol.

[luvtoeatit2000]

You cant tear your bicep doing that?

[janjan215]

hahahaha! dood your Constipated! haha jk man.

[dldowell1122]

wow I can only curl 85 with e 2 hands and he does it with 1.

[WICKED420WSG]

dude thanks for the vid ill make sure to try this after i hit a plateau.

[CertifiedOddBall]

thank you for doing such an awesome job with the powerfully positive influence that has reached nearly 66,000 subscribers. Scooby you the man, keeping helping :)

[Waggoner2010]

ya ummm lay off the steriods lol.....it sounded like you were taking the biggest crap of your life....not cool.

[asklyar]

waggoner,

you're an idiot if you think scooby takes steroids. he's been training hard for over two decades and has been dedicated to his diet. don't take your insecurities out on him.

[Waggoner2010]

my insecurities lmfao?? I know he has been at it for a long time i was joking =P

dont be so serious all the time.

[asklyar]

even if you are joking, you are still accusing scooby of taking steroids, and how is anybody supposed to know on youtube about your stupid jokes. If you want to post something, make it productive like in a form of a question, not accusations about a guy who clearly knows what he's doing, moron

[forgeinmind]

fuck you bitch

[bhbmom512]

1:56 he farts!!!!!!hahahahahahahahahah­ahahashahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hah

[DasussH03]

I didn't hear anything.

I think you farted, fatboy.

[Troublesome92]

ahahaahahahahhaahahahah you farted at 1:56 ahahahah ihihihihiihi

[RogerLC1981]

dude how are you sweating after 6 reps???wtf???go do some cardio

[D00MD00MD00M]

youre an idiot....

[acecrapola]

maybe the fact it weighs 85 pounds?

[MrTerces000]

Good video like always, great tips, and yeah the facial expressions were a little out of this world

[AznGangstah]

=D

whooo!!!!

[BV10707]

hahaha this dude looks weird. hella big wit a lil pinhead lol

[UHSplaya93]

Ive been working out for months since feb. 14 this year and I havent seen much results in anything. I weight 205 pounds and I have been weighing that for like 2 months already. How can I improve my body lifting and lose body fat and weight?? Im 16 years old and 6 feet tall

[pup101]

ummm well why dont you do alot of cardio to lose fat and at the same time lift

[flazy]

i have started the cabbage soup diet last week i already lost 5 pound i think it's water weight but i will post my before and after pictures on scoobys site i am aiming to lose 28-30 lb's i am following the diet from Toningit (dot) com for anyone lese who wants to start

[lordgeemoney]

u mad fat!

[badass1163]

hey how would u do negatives for chest?

[Ryuzen]

You can get someone to spot you and assist in your form when required, this will help not only for the forced negatives but to prevent the risk of injury while working out@ home in solitude. In my experience though most people @ gyms have no problem spotting for a set or two

[michaelzwarszawy]

try wearing a backpack loaded with heavy weights. then do ultra wide pushups with them, letting ur body down slowly and then go back up on ur feet and lower urself again

[misha1987987]

Hey Scooby, san you make a video for one other then biceps? This is the only one I know myself and I am finding it difficult to come up with one for chest and back. Perhaps I am not creative enough :P. Keep up the good work!!!

[michaelzwarszawy]

forced negative backpack pushups are an idea. load ur backpack with weights and lower urself as if u were doing a pushup and go back up using ur feet.....so just lower urself with really heavy weights to the count of 5 with ultra wide pushups

[danielh12]

how much weight are you using in this video?

[scooby1961]

Hey everybody, please help me keep things G-rated here so I dont have to turn off comments.  I just had to remove a comment and block someone for an x-rated comment. People of all ages look at these comments, please keep that in mind.

[cheesylobsterob]

any good ones to do for shoulders like this??

[scooby1961]

forced negs are tough for shoulders unless you have a spotter.

[cheesylobsterob]

ok thank you :) so make sure take alll the precautions first, thank you for your time

[chessdude67]

"What do you do?" Try Scrap-booking! LOL J/K

Good luck to everyone. Keep training!

peace. 

[marcelimarilag]

hey Scooby! I taught you'll have a six pack abs by july 4th?? where's that six pack??

[zonesid]

hey.. how often are we suppose to do that.. i mean i usually do it almost every time i work out on my biceps when they get tired, just once or two times lifts though

[supremeheroo]

Awesome work, Scooby.

[Zevvion]

Hey scooby... can you make tutorials on the Press, Bench Press, Squat and Deadlift? I think you're not a big fan of those but I'd like to do them. And I thought if I'm going to do them, I may as well do them correctly.

[bilalk85]

u should play the STarWars theme at the end!

nice video..funny too!

[davilacm]

those are some sweet faces you make scooby, tks for the tips!! I will implement them asap!!

[LHD4life]

haha ur face amuses me, ur a solid bloke my friend :D

[Snakeelixir]

another great video!!!

[mailman2310]

FUUUUUUUUUUCK MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[DerekCarlson10]

do i gotta make that face to get bigger?

[scooby1961]

Do you have to make silly faces to get bigger? Actually quite a good question! Weirdly enough, I would say yes. Check out my video "No Pain, No Gain"

[kitzmiller1234]

honestly. your my idol

[ZwienerZ]

Scooby, you are a legend!

[Pekeno201]

to be honest the results were more at the strenght lvl i got stronger faster very very faster i of course got bigger but i got friends who are a lot bigger then me like a lot bigger and lift the same as i do

[Pekeno201]

thats how i train and thats how ive always trained, see my bro had 35lbs dumbell so i started using those very early and couldnt lift it i gain the strenght to do it and it became easier and easier and now i simply stuck to that

[ericskarer]

scooby your in wikipedia

[1Pelito1]

i didn't find him on wikipedia-english

[bratsameer]

i want big biceps i m just struck on 16.3- 16.5 inch what u say what should i do .. i m following ur videos from past 1 and half yrs it helped me but now i juz think its time to go on and do sumthing else .,. i need 17" but sad when we work so hard then also size doesnt increase which is happening to me from past 3 months

[gupijalt]

i don't look every day better and better...

[gupijalt]

i start the 50 mins cardio training and how lond do i need to keep doing this ? when do i see the changes ?

[Storm1ty]

got a mirror?

[DaIcewind]

And another one from scooby ! Keep it up because what you are doing is awesome.

[Sabu743]

man scooby youve helped me alot with the nutrition and exercises... thanks alot.

[ftlptba]

thanks u have really help me with all of ur videos...i used to go gym ..but then i buy stuff and i have done really good work at home with the help of ur video ..i would like if u have the time to get me a new programm to start it from september .if u are interesting to this plzz send me message...u are really gooxd

[methcalin]

great technique

another one i got told is to use more weight and just do 1 lifting/pushing then wait some time and repeat. this will help too

[mRHinz123]

omg you can see the swet on his fore head

[simon7687]

hey scooby, ive been using the negative rep techniques quite often in my bicep workout but it seems to have caused me some bicep tendonitis which has begun to cause me shoulder pain. I have given it a few weeks rest and been taking anti-inflammatories, I was just wondering if you knew any exercises I can use to get rid of the the soreness and recover.

Thanks, big fan.

[possy4216]

this works great scooby, i actually already had been doing this before you made the video, but im glad to see you made a video on it because most people think its stupid when i do it!

[easyissy09]

im training for 17 months now. can i call my self advanced and do these exercises?

[michaelzwarszawy]

if you have been lifting consistently for the past year then yes

[scooby1961]

Depends on what you mean by "good looking chest". How many pounds/inches of muscle do you want to add? Figure on adding 5lbs of muscle a year if you are really dedicated.

[leopower7]

Thanks, scooby. I already subscribed. Keep up the awesome videos :D

[mrbiggz1984]

how long should the negative be, 5-10secs?

[scooby1961]

If the negative takes less than 2 seconds, its too much weight. If you can hold if off more than 5s, its probably not enough weight.

[skinscrabber]

This is a great tip. I started to use this a way back because of one of your old vids where you tel tjis as well. It helpt me quite a lot

[sdarms111]

Man, the obvious effort is AWESOME. Most guys demonstrate with fake weights.

Probably if yo
