  • 90 scrawny ass kids who cant lift even 5lbs....XD

  • double thumbs up to the first two comments

  • I suggest not performing any swinging motion during the excersize, I can easily preform 6-12 reps of 50 lbs only moving my arms. a weakling can perform this similar manouvre since it uses everything EXCEPT arm muscles and will lead to permanant injuries. consult a fitness professional or learn proper form before attempting this sort of excersize

  • he is swinging his body, what does that suppose to mean, Arm work out requires strict form

  • I'm barely on 20's :( lol

  • @WWJerkers you'll get there. I'm only on 25's :(

  • moving your back, back and forward get some lighter weights bro. You aint even focusing on the arms ur using back and ur whole fucking arm

  • Really bad form.... u should try to see how much u can actualy curl when u do it the right way

  • Hey Lee - big big big fan here - can you check out my hammer curls vid and let me know what you think of my training technique and try it yourself - it is a hammer curl with a difference - twist on the norm as it were - works lats, serr anterior, ant, medial and post delts as well as bis and tris mate - thanks for your input (much appreciated when you have had a go)

    Have a look at my other vids too see what you reckon - i am a certified PT in New Zealand!!

  • @LifeFitTraining

    What's your video called? I didn't see it listed anywhere.

  • Son of a bitch 80s and 95s. Gonna take me a while to work up to that, I feel puny now lol

  • What the fuck are everyone whining about bad form? The goal in weight exercising is pushing your muscles to the limit thus making you stronger. Working out with larger weights and maybe cheating a little on the last reps will hell of a lot work that muscle better than waggling around with little weight while maintaining proper form.

  • I'm 16, 6 ft 4, I've been doing weights for about a year, I Hammer 5 sets of 10 with 30kgs easily with my PB being 50kgs. Is that pretty good for my age? get back to me guys. I also bench 80kgs, shoulder press 50kgs, hmmmm what else, chest fly 150kgs,shrug 180kgs, idk get back to me fellas

  • Guys your form isn't good. your gonna get injured and its barely working your biceps. just go down to like 50 and keep your back straight and work your way back up. I'm not saying its not impressive but it would be even more impressive to see less weight and good form

  • do like alot of your vids, not a fan of this one just two monsters showing off without good form

  • 95lbs or kg?

  • @lunaciferify

    This is pounds, we anit that strong to be powering up those numbers in kilos :-)

  • geeez one day i wanna get like this guys ...only one thing i hate when beeen so muscluar like them is that when ur done with getting cut musscle u get bigger n with a shirt u look kinda big u know idk watever ill still try to achieve what they have

  • Cool i can do 75 lb in hammercurls at 16, i hope i can catch up to ya'll eventually

  • Man, this is a nice video, but I always laugh at people in the gym who have an extremely large upper body but a small lower body... It just looks so weird..

  • look like Steve O but moore bigger =)))

  • And this folks is how to swing when doing hammer curls

  • I'm currently doing this on my bicep workout and it's great, I find it more effective than concentration curls. I guess we should stick to the weight that we could handle well, a heavy weight but improper curls wont give a good result.

  • Holy back problems.

  • I feel like a weakling curling my 25s.

  • bad really bad form!

  • is doing them across the body about the same?

  • dude no one gets bigger and stronger by using a shit load of weight.

  • you look like ur about to snap some shit up

  • ROFL,.... GOOD FORM ?!?!?!?! GOOD STUFF MAN !?!?!?!?! next time try full of range of motion and quit wasting our time

  • don't fuck with Dave Ruel haha

  • I bet you that dave guy or whoever could do more reps or weight if he didnt have a sweater on. Id like to say your videos are really helpful!!!! the ones with you and vince helped me so much!

  • How much do you guys bench ?

  • Why are some people complaining? he makes great videos on how to train your muscles, keep up with the good work! :)

  • @TheIlka56 some people are always gonna complain because that's what losers do. keep winning bro. lee is the man

  • Fail xD He is doing them wrong! He just swing his arms...

  • LOL WTF 95 LBS?!

  • The song "the boys are back in town" by the legendary "Thin Lizzy" playing in the backround!! Go on the Irish!!:)

  • @dougie180 love the song 

  • if youve been training before some1 was born.. your pretty small then bruh

  • Pause at 1:09 for chicken legs

  • not enough range of motion.

  • haha i just watched a video all nazi on bicept form and then i hit this one and hes doing exactly the same movement the other vid said not to do, even managed to get the grunts exactly right.

  • Yes bad form, but to be fair, he has got prettyyyyyy big arms.

  • STOP BOUNCING IT MAKES IT EASIER U FAG

  • terrible form ;p need to be using half the weight

  • you do realise you didn't complete one rep with the 95's....half way there though, haha

  • Ahahahahahahaha this is some of the worst form I've ever seen in my life. Thanks for the laugh.

  • What muscle are you trying to work with that exercise anyway? You're going to end up having your "13,000+ subscribers" injure themselves with such dance moves.

  • Meat heads look pitiful.

  • drop the weight buttercup

  • The only reason you'd get any bicep strain from this is the negative motion trying to let it back down without breaking your arm. The form on the way up does nothing for your bicep.

  • Terrible form.....

  • @xandeath666 Youre a skinnyfat bitch, i bet you cant bench 95.

  • @xandeath666 who gives a fuck, look at them fuckers.

  • terrible form

  • SWING SWING SWING SWING SWING SWING SWING SWING

  • wtf kinda form is that? how about enough of the "heavy weight" talk and just drop about 25 pounds so your form is correct? Do both arms simultaneously and keep your elbows tucked in, that way you won't do that stupid arm swing thing. You're big man, but that form is awful...

  • i call this the half rom swinging monkey

  • awful form, bro XD

  • @Sunno94 agreed, awful :)

  • i know with hammers you can do more than if you were doing regular dumb bell curls. my question is hammer and regular curls target the same muscle or not? if not, what am i working out with hammer?

  • @chupaxxx

    Hammer curls work more forearms and brachialis compared to regular bicep curls.

  • @chupaxxx the belly of the bi like notice when you do a regular curl you get a nice solid apple when you do hammer its not exactly that same solid apple its the belly of the bi

  • i know with hammers you can do more than if you were doing regular dumb bell curls. my question is hammer and regular curls targer the same muscle or not? if not, what am i working out with hammer?

  • People always have something smart to say to put people down. Sickening.

  • beast

  • I don't think the bicep was worked out good with that momentum, looks more like back with some bicep stimulation but not full flex/full extension. A bit less weight would answer this question.

  • Don't cross your limits guys

  • the problem is that most guys who watch these videos are beginners, this is not really suitable for beginners, yeah its ok if ur advanced lifter but begginers doing this shit is just asking for trouble

  • whats the difference between the regular bicep curls and the hammer curls?

  • Good form? He's using momentum to drive the weight up! Sure it's impressive he can do that much even with "bad form" but he should lower the weight and do strict form. Thanks for the video though.

  • @NoirHammer Yeah, isolating the weight is the way to go. No jerking motions to assist the lifting of the weight. Not many people know this, so it will look impressive around people who don't lift, but it could fuck your shit up in the long run.

  • Totally unrelated question Lee. What model and make of camera are you using?

    Thanks. Very informative vids

  • Yes I do. Ofcourse you're using your biceps, but NOT primary, just seconday. So for bigger biceps? No, do dumbbell curls or burbell curls instead. Its like when you do bench press, its an exercise for chest but your triceps are also involved...

  • 1:57.... totally dropped the more better

  • well most of the energy you are using is to lift the weight, and you are doing that mostly with your bicep. So it is absolutely a bicep workout.

  • Hammercurls is NOT an exercise for biceps at all, its a forearm exercise!

  • @freakofbicep Wow...you don't have a CLUE how the human body works, do you? I'd like to see you do a hammer curl without using your biceps, lol.

  • @freakofbicep your forearms are just used as stabilizers for it. they directly work biceps.

  • What workout do you do to make your chest stick out so much please tell me the name of the chest workout yoh do

  • Johnyostrab33ry

    I'm sorry are you that big

  • wtf i do 40's 50's to me is alot

  • And why are hammer curls so important? i mostly avoid these type of curls because there's something strange going on in my forearm (right side) when performing these hammer curls. Some sort of tendon or muscle flipping over a bone or something, feels not good...

  • @fighttuts

    If an exercise doesn't feel good, than don't do it. Not exercise works for every body. There are dozens of other bicep exercises you can do besides hammer curls.

  • @leemhayward I like Hammer Curls,These are supposed to Build Bench Press strength and arm power and things Like that,correct me If i am wrong.

  • @lordvoldemort578

    It's not a direct bench press assistance exercise. But getting stronger all over in the arms, back, grip, etc. will help with stability and support during the bench press and other pressing moves.

  • @leemhayward Hey there Lee, im wondering so bad if there are any differences between regular hammer curls and power hammer curls ? cuz i love doing the power one, my gunz got stronger since i added power hammer curls to my arm routine(i saw some eastern european weightlifters doing them and included to my routine)

    thanks.

  • @fighttuts maybe it doesn't feel good because you are mentally weak?

  • @jasonyoungisnumber1

    Another kid trying to be large. If you perform this exercise in a right way, your biceps will get bigger and you don't have to be insecure about your body anymore. It's essential to have the correct mindset and the will and motivation to work hard in the gym to get big. Obviously, you are missing something very valuable in order to reach your goals, and i understand that anger is something you express when you feel insecure. Just work hard man, you will reach your goals.

  • @fighttuts And the answer is because hammer curls is a FOREARM exercise! NOT for bigger bicep!

  • @freakofbicep your forearms are just used as stabilizers for it. they directly work biceps.

  • @fighttuts And the answer is because hammer curls is an exercise for your forarms, NOT for bigger biceps!

  • @fighttuts because it focuses right on the biceps

  • @fighttuts try doing an alternating bicep curl, where you start out in a hammer curl and half way turn your thumbs out so your palms and weight is facing upwards and finish the rep from there. See how that feels.

  • I just gotta say, i like the way you are bringing these videos man. I am a big boy, but i am always curious about other guys training. I like what you are doing, and you doing it good man. Thanks and keep it up.

  • gj keep it upp ;D

  • that first set was completely incorrect. sorry im not trying to dis im just saying you want full range of motion with no swinging of the shoulder or back.

  • Wow Lee you have some strong biceps there

  • if ronnie coleman see u ..he will eat u 

  • loook at his bent back ? hahahahaha noob

  • @Griyral999

    LOL I've been training since before you were even born and I'm the noob? Nice one...

  • @Griyral999 Go curl the 80s like he did and post up a video

  • @Griyral999 haha 18 year old kid.grow up u little twirp..oh wait ur still 18.lol..brat

  • @Griyral999 fucking dumbass you know NOTHING of bodybuilding, hahahaha noob stop humiliating yourself lil fag

  • OK ... listen .. who looks jacked? You or the dudes in the videos? thought so Now STFU and get lifting you pussys. 

  • good jerk off material.

  • I wish they played Theory Of A Deadman in my gym...

  • @tbr131 i know right. my gym is too busy playing goddamn taylor swift and rihanna WTF 

  • @wantapie Nothing wrong with that at all. I just hope you aren't like some people who think they know it all and haven't put in the time and effort.

  • apperantly every one is a body builder on youtube

  • the boys are back in town.....

  • i can swings big bells like that to.lets see ya bring it up hold it for a second with concentration then lower it? bet ya cant?good acting! oh and you can find me at pro fitness in columbia missouri!

  • i can swings big bells like that to.lets see ya bring it up hold it for a second with concentration then lower it? bet ya cant?good acting!

  • Lee, how do you put up with all the nerds with 13 inch arms who criticize your form and have probably never curled over 40lbs in their life?

  • @beretboy22

    Come on now that's a bit much... Not all of them have 13 inch arms... Some only have 12 inch guns :-)

    But seriously you need to have "thick skin". Whenever you put yourself out there and share what you are passionate there will be plenty of people just waiting to shoot you down. But luckily there are a lot more who enjoy the videos I share... After all with 13,000+ subscribers I must be doing something right :-)

  • @leemhayward Well said!

  • yhat guy is doing that workout heavy but  wrong

  • awsome lifting you guys, you pair would be awsome to train with. Reminds me of about 9 years ago when I was right into it, I could only curl around 50lbs for reps though,

  • How many sets should i do for my viceps, triceps and shoulders? and shoul I do them all in the same day?

  • I notice how your back is not straight and how you are swinging your whole body.Not just using your arms to lift the weights.This is quite a bad technique.

  • Dude, I'd kick the shit out of you! You're just a big dummy.

  • Im 18 and i throw up 70's....

  • @Starved4Truth bull shit

  • @Starved4Truth  me too im 14 though

  • @Starved4Truth yeah ok

  • lolol the song in the background is the one that is playing right now for me haha.

  • just breath out man u see how u was out of breath when u finish just a helpfull advice

  • lee has it right, he has that natural look,like he didnt have to work out for his physic like he was born with it. I prefer that then to look like i spend all my extra time in the gym. I prefer for woman to say he must naturaly have a nice body. it just looks like you have good genetics, plus i love to eat, im not givin up my hamburger that easy. thanks lee

  • Whats the big deal with form? I mean, isn't the point of good form to not hurt yourself and to not work much other than your target muscles? I think the point is to not totally cheat. I don't a little bit of cheating is a problem, as long it's working out.

  • @RaidenTheAlmighty also to maximize your workout. if you are doing 15 reps by swinging the weights, you would get a better workout to do 10 with good form. wasted movement is a waste of time imo. work out on the way up and work out on the way down. or else you are only getting half the workout.

  • Well, its not like they're throwing themselves all of the place.

  • @RaidenTheAlmighty ya but i like to keep my workouts very organized and disciplined. why do it wrong 10 times when i can do it right 8 times? thats just in my opinion.

    even arnold has been seen cheating a bit with swinging heavy weights when doing shoulders or back.

  • MAY I LAUGH SIR ? HIHIHIIH  TKL

  • I don't understand how you guys are talking shit on lee... look at him lmfao.

  • I think everyone's body is different. I can't get much growth unless it is a slow and controlled movement with moderate heavy weight. It gives me a better stretch and pump. But 95 and 80 for hammers? That's just crazy heavy lol

  • i agree with comment below he is slouching and using his back not his arms very bad tutorial im a beginner iv been doing weights for 2 months and even i know that that is all wrong you are supossed to use a nice moderate weight not too light but not too heavy for your build

  • @Salakerz324-Its mass retard

    

  • what stereroids you take man ? you look sick !!

  • you guys are big but u aint ripped!...

  • Dude 95=that is big time out of your League

  • Dude 95=that is big time out of your League

  • jesus christ that guy just went at it...beast!

  • look he's turning into a tomato with those eighties!

  • @leemhayward sorry forgot to tag you in my comment bellow!

  • Lee, what is the purpose of "Phase 1" of blast your biceps? Not a criticism, just ignorance!

  • leaning forward as seen in this video is a good way to lose range of motion and isolation. if that's what you're looking for than by all means lol. i see guys doing this style and it relies heavily on shoulder strength and momentum.

  • I'm actually doing these right this second with 95 pound dumbells but the gym folk are looking at me weird...they act like they've never seen a beast curling 95 dumbells while sitting on a computer chair typing in the middle of the gym.. I'm just a multitasker. HEY FORM CRITICS THANKS FOR GIVING LEE SOME EXTRA VIEWS NOW FUCK OFF

  • @jahnsmikey oh my that's soo funny hahahaha

  • i loveeeeeeeeeee hammer curls ...good training =)

  • man 95's thats just pure awsome ive never seen anything like it

  • crazy fools, if he's holding 160 pounds in front of him it's pretty hard to keep your back in one stiff position when moving that weight through space, unless he super glued himself to the wall or had a metal pipe going through his arse to his head. SO yea Lee go get a metal pole to keep your form in tip top shape, shouldn't look out of place at all

  • Bad Bad!! Horrible form man, Gotta have the form straight back little herky jerky motion. what was that?? horrible video for those who are just starting out or looking for a proper demonstration. Another thing Quality over Quantity for all those who are just starting out.

  • God sake evry1 goes in 2 everyl little detail about lee's form his form is really good look at his video, he was culing 80 there and he done it well you cant help a little bit of moving with a weight that heavy god give the guy a break on all d little details lol.

  • nice music!!!!!!!!!!!!:) in background boys back in town!!!! classic!!

  • Your friend Dave sounds quebecois? :)

  • I'm From New Brunswick ;)

  • 80pounds is that all? and how big are they im 17 76kj and im doing 70pounds.

  • I'm getting old bye... when I was your age I could curl a 200 pound dumbbell for 25 reps with one hand while holding a cigarette in the other... Those were the days I tell ya LOL :-)

  • @leemhayward

    The way you curled those dumbells in this video looked as though you wasted your time. You used momentum to lift them rather than the actual muscle.

    This comment probably means fuck all to you but if even i can notice a flaw you should probably take a stab at working the muscle slowly and controlling your form.

    Perhaps i'm wrong, and you've already tried a slower technique? Everyones different, we all need different techniques and shit.

  • Thanks for your feedback, I recommend you watch my most recent youtube video called "Hammer Strength Seated Row 6 Plates Per Side" I actually cover some of the pros and cons to using heavy weights vs. ultra strict form.

  • @leemhayward lol, those damn momentum freaks

  • @leemhayward hahahaha this is your way of telling this guy to fuck off isn't it hahahaha i've seen that vid hahaha-------Thanks for your feedback, I recommend you watch my most recent youtube video called "Hammer Strength Seated Row 6 Plates Per Side" I actually cover some of the pros and cons to using heavy weights vs. ultra strict form.

  • He didn't use much momentum, but he did stall at the hardest part of the lift.

  • @IrishRaver03 You're wrong, alright. I think Lee is too nice. Lifting slowly is for amateurs and roiders. And if his "form" is wrong, let's see you lift it!

  • I have always been a hard-gainer in the arms, but let me tell you, heavy hammer curls are the way to go. You have to cheat a little but the extra stress on the arms works wonders. Also, heavy barbell curls hurt my wrists, but these don't.

  • @leemhayward: lol gotta love youtube crowds...

  • @leemhayward these show off self promoters do get annoyin ar times!

  • @leemhayward Yeah well I use to curl 500lbs... Dumb ass kids... Great lifts bro... Great form... @ Irishraver He is curling those hammers that way to prevent injury you do not isolate with that kind of weight. If you do not know how to train don't comment... Stupid haterz... 5 star freaking lifts!!!!!!!

  • @bombsadam13 : That's it? I weigh 95 lbs and curl 100 strict for a set of 12...

    ... stfu or post a vid you dumbass.

  • @bombsadam13 Why would you curl that much anyway? Curls aren't meant to be heavy.

  • Oh hell, these guys aren't lifting the weights - they're just throwing them. Using all that chalk is also unnecessary.

  • Wtf I didn't know hammer curls existed. I always thought it's only bicep curls that increases strength. All these months I have been struggling to pull 40 pound dumbbells all the way up for 10 reps/3 sets when I could have just done hammer curls and gained strength the easy way. :|

  • "This is a HEAVY DUMBELL hammer curl workout that myself and Super Dave Ruel did while we were filming the DVD's for the brand new "Blast Your Biceps" training system. This is taken from Phase 2 of the program."

    Please read the fucking description and realize this workout was meant to be performed this way due to the over sized weight.. fucking idiots. Did you even listen to what he said??! Not expecting perfect form, Plus he barely even used his back in the first place..

  • 5++++ stress the muscle to grow. For all the haters on the couch with your lap top in your lap surfing, GET YOUR ASS TO THE GYM AND TRY THIS JACKASSES!!!!!

  • Hi, I loved your channel, your videos are amazing! You can add me? I want to Subscribe to your channel! Do me a small favor? Comment and rate with the 5th star my video? ? ? ? ? ? watch?v=GfyfwUXIIdM Kisses!

  • Leeward, man, gave this a shot last night... awesome brutha...

  • You are bouncing and not keeping your back straight is bad for your back. This is not how you do a proper workout. This is just a showing off video....uuhhh who can lift the heaviest weights....how gay!!!

  • you can do it put
