Barbell curls (140lbs)

[oscarnikki]

the form is fine, nice work man!

[sgtsnakeeyes11]

form nazis incoming

[roet69]

Swinging like crazy..... I can curl 145lb 7x without swinging and my arms don't look like that so this guy must be really short I'm 6' feet

[Tiroth77]

HORRIBLE FORM!!!!

[6garbageman9]

@Tiroth77 ah shut up asshole, you probably couldn't even curl the bar by itself with proper form lol!

[Tiroth77]

@6garbageman9 i do as much as i can with good form. it really doesnt matter how much weight you can do. its how well u do it

[drastaify]

when i was 7 i could barbell curl 400 pounds but i cant do it now

[AndyHarglesis]

If any one wants to hear more about the difference between strict curls and swinging ones you let me know....

Just remember that there's bad benefits in swinging, even though it can advance you better than strict curls.

[CelebrateReason]

can some experts here tell me what are the different benefits of keeping strict form and swinging?

[AndyHarglesis]

@CelebrateReason Swinging increases explosive strength more and strict increases balanced strength more.

Explosive strength would be going all out....Balanced strength would be a type of explosive strength, but having more control and better range in movement.

Balance is better.

[ningabushman]

@AndyHarglesis You can actually focus on explosive strength by selecting a weight that is 50-60% of your one rep max with strict form, and lifting fast without swinging the weight. Yeah, or you could just swing that weight around and get a good cardio workout. And where do you come up with "balanced strength"? Did you make that up? Go read The Science and Practice of Strength Training by V.M. Zatsiorsky. Then we'll talk.

[AndyHarglesis]

@ningabushman I am WAY more intelligent than V.M. Zatsiorsky.....

And balanced strength is some thing you'll never have, my friend.

[ningabushman]

@AndyHarglesis Wow dude. You don't even know who V. M. Zatsiorsky is. You should really check his book out. He reveals the scientific secrets the Russians used to win so many of the Olympic games back in the day. He knows all about explosive strength. But seriously, what do you mean by balanced strength?

[AndyHarglesis]

Ugh, 500 character limit is probably not enough, but "balanced strength" is actually one of my own personal discoveries based on how some forms of natural strength work. See, by "balanced strength" it actually means a certain amount of force that can be applied in the shortest time and measured evenly through a course of time of at least 30 seconds evenly. To make this easier it means a certain amount of strength that, once applied, can be equally measured for a certain amount of time.

[6garbageman9]

@AndyHarglesis it's real funny when a natural born moron talks like he thinks he has any intellect...pretending to be smart is even more stupid lol!!!

[AndyHarglesis]

Swinging is for batters.

[willieofroanoke]

That's the biggest convoluted load of bullshit I heard in weeks. Hello, fool.... you don't get massive chest from doing bicep curls. That was the topic wasn't it?

I can see you're really mixed up. The danger in videos like this is some rube comes along sees the joker doing it the wrong way, then tries to do it and ends up hurting himself. That the guy in the video can do it, is an indication he already worked his body enough TO be able to do it incorrectly. That too deep for you to get?

[superpwn2000]

you know thats 135 right and not 140 ?

[allusernamestakenftl]

Is he clean? nice nevertheless

[fogonabomba2]

nice arms...

[iMeThoD]

How the fuck are you going to argue with the size of this dude's arms? Obviously whatever he does works for him so keep your fucking ignorant shit to yourself, haters.

[willieofroanoke]

@iMeThoD you simple minded foul mouth little wannabe. I haven't seen anyone on YouTube yet do barbell curls over 100 pounds where they didn't use their back and swing their arms and use their legs to get the weight up. Doing any of that is cheating. Pure and simple. I don't care if the guy has 20 inch arms. He's only cheating himself not doing the exercise correctly.

[iMeThoD]

@willieofroanoke

LOL! Go tell Mr. Olympia that he cheats on his curls. I got news for you, even the pros "cheat" sometimes. You can only get so far using perfect form. You got bigger arms than this kid doing your fucking full extension curls? Post your video, little bitch.

[willieofroanoke]

@iMeThoD I looked at YOUR video and laughed. Sorry kid. I've been weight training for over 20 years. You don't have a clue or a body either. Keep dreaming.

[iMeThoD]

@willieofroanoke

Well then you shouldn't have a problem showing us your absolutely flawless physique then, will you?

[willieofroanoke]

@iMeThoD I have no need to primp in front of a mirror for hours or "oil up" or post videos to YouTube to show off my body. Seems your ego needs that boost. Why is that?

I simply commented that the guy in the video is using sloppy form. Cheating. I guess you can't handle the truth. Typical of the gym freak crowd that rarely engage their brains.

[iMeThoD]

@willieofroanoke

And I have no need to engage in an arguement over the internet with a complete fucktard. You're the sloppy one. Unless you can do better, shut your trap. Have a good one.

[willieofroanoke]

@iMeThoD odd, you "have no need" only after you run your mouth. AGAIN!

What a dork! Take out the garbage, walk your dog, clean out the garage. Do something useful kid. I've forgot more about weight training then you'll ever know. Obviously you have no desire to learn.

[Huxflux22]

@willieofroanoke please give us example how you work out then if you thinks this dude is so bad (look at his arms, you dont get those by not doing a well workout)

ofcourse you can always be more strict, that really depends what you want to do with your workout, keep it strict or building muscles your priority. I dont understand why people laugh, i think you yellows

[willieofroanoke]

@Huxflux22 all you kiddies know shit about weight training. Anyone using poor form not only is stupid, but a bad influence on others that might try to copycat his methods. Are you dummies aware that just in the states over 30,000 guys under 20 need to visit a hospital emergency room every year DUE to messing up while weight training.

[13098519]

@willieofroanoke - The only bad form around here is you and your comments. Stop being ignorant and a wanna be know it all. I believe your motivation for this bullshit is caused purely from your jealousy of watching the video. Drop your lame attitude and focus that energy into the weights. If this was in real life, you would never even THINK of APPROACHING this guy to cry about form. Your pathetic. If you want to argue this shit, at least post it on a video with someone doing it awfully

[willieofroanoke]

@13098519 you're a nut job. Guess what kid, I've been weight training for over 20 years which is probably longer than you've been breathing.

Since my last post here was 2 months ago what is YOUR agenda to need to reply to it now?

[13098519]

@willieofroanoke - Automatically assuming im a kid because I have difference of opinion only further proves your ignorance.

Who the hell cares if your post was 2 months ago. I just saw this video TODAY. And more specifically your saying this video is a bad influence, well I think your comments are a bad influence so im entitled to point that out.

You need to drop your ego and give props when props are due. And you should know that with your 20 years of weight lifting.

[willieofroanoke]

@13098519 Well gosh, I assume you're a kid because you act like one. The point is in 20+ years of weight training you get a fair idea what works and what don't. You also see a lot of dopes like the one in the video get hurt because they have no idea what they're doing.

[13098519]

@willieofroanoke - If your going to use that strategy of argument, then the damn same shit can apply to you.

You cant limit "what works and what doesnt" to everyone because everybodys build is different.

This guys upper body is massive as im sure his lower back muscles are. Which you can plainly see in his form (Its clean and shows control). The fact your even arguing these results just makes you a "20 year shit talker". 

People dont get ripped like this not knowing what they are doing

[ningabushman]

@willieofroanoke I'm with you bro. This guy's form is awful, plain and simple. He didn't get those arms by just doing this exercise, duh. And while you will get somewhat of a workout by cheating the whole time, you are cheating yourself in the long run. As to the comment that pro bodybuilders use cheating, it is true, but they use good form until they can't get any more reps, then they cheat a few more. I'm just not impressed by a youtube video of a guy swinging the weight the whole time. kids!

[swettybettybob]

His arms are beast. 'nuff said

[terrapatra]

congradulations i cant even curl 10 pounds

[teletubby9999]

I have seen Marja Lehtonen ( an amazing female bodybuilder only 5 feet tall ) do the same weight with ease for 20 reps...So who are you trying to impress ?

Delete the video and save yourself future embarrassment.

[terrapatra]

@teletubby9999 why dont you say this on everyones curling videos i mean thats 70 pounds with one arm i cant even do 10 pounds

[jpwhatwhat1028]

DAMN GREAT ARMS

[Dudelookslikeeylady]

Taking up all the negative thumbs. you guys are idiots. that was good form. and btw good form sucks! strong explosive reps are key for growth. if you do a slow controlled reps you wont get nearly as much muscle fiber damage. you guys are ignorante

[DILLPHIL6]

hus form would only be bad if he arched his back more.. doing it this way and going down on the neg's good like he is.. is a lil cheating but of course will not hurt him so he doing good. 5/5

[hempa021]

Stop hate !

[13098519]

FUCK ALL OF YOU!! Do the results in his arms lie???? I think everyone needs to just shut the hell up with all the critisizm! Try holding out 140lbs in front of you and see if you can keep yourself from falling forward.. fuckin morons.

[blueduderanch]

terrible form

[agent9ussr]

moving a little to much there?

[flex78er]

LOL Thats Easy I have done that in my arms video and Im not even big and buff at all

[Remry16]

your a loser. you might do the same weight but you have way worse form and it looks like you weigh more than him. so pound for pound he is a lot stronger than you. You need a better nutrition program too cuz he is cut,.. you not so much

[morien2]

What's the name of this song?! It kicks ass!

[TDKofGOTHOMCITY]

look man, I'm not saying I could do better, but if your swinging as much as you are, then you shouldn't be doing that weight. I usually don't say i can do an amount of weight unless i can do it with my body completely still, and my arms are the only thing moving.

And for people who will ask, no, i don't prop my elbow against my side, thats cheating just as much as swinging the weight is.

[bigfattrolllord]

that's why your arms will never be bigger than 16". enjoy being mediocre like 99% of the world.

[IronWolverine1973]

very good! i have a few videos,that be worth watching.check them out.

[jungletiger911]

At least you hyperextend your arms, but you are swinging it up. Bet you only get half the reps, if that, with NO swinging - try it sometime. I can swing that weight up like you for 12-15. BUT, I use STRICT FORM, arms locked out, NO swinging, I get 2, need help on 3 with that weight.

[rantanen1]

yes AND?

hes just showing his training, we couldnt give less how many he can do with "STRICT" form and even less we care about whether ure weaker or stronger than him.

why on earth do u and loads of other people automaticly compare urself to everyone else and most of all criticize their way of training?

swinging is not BAD, its just another way to do it and thats what u should realize..

focus on yourself and not others.

[Ancooashoe]

@rantanen1

Where the fuck did u get that from? Do you have any fucking idea what swining with that kind of weight can do to you?

[rantanen1]

@Ancooashoe

140lbs? yes im sure it'll break you.

[DurtyIce12]

@Ancooashoe let me know how "swining" is involved with lifting weight.........oh........you talking about your boyfriend

[jtm1979]

You are complete idiot! LOL!

Nice job memnoch36! :)

[crowsound]

take some weight off pencil chest and do it right...train those spindles you call calves

[mypsp310]

actually he was doing it right, just cuz he leaned a bit forward doesn't mean he didn't do it right, as a matter of fact he's getting his biceps engaged more because hes letting the weight go down all the way till it can't anymore

[Cheesin331]

what song is this?

[BRETZERR]

Great form on that set bro...nice. 5 stars.

[nauticabinx]

Man u are amazing.

[gemballa700bhp]

This guy sounds and looks like John Cena.

[Ian7570]

Lol, I love the form police pussies trying to sound like experts. "You have to keep your back straight and your elbows at the side and your chin at a 90 degree angle...here let me grab those 5 pound dumbels and I'll show you how it's done". Please do everyone a favor and SHUT THE FUCK UP!

[jtrejo07]

They are correct. There is no use in showing off, when you know for a fact that it is not proper procedure.

You'll just end up hurting your body. Everyone's choice to do so.

[viper909909]

if u do what this guy did in the video its not bad enough form to hurt ur body...

[82008607]

That is absolutely F*ck'in right "SHUT THE FUCK UP" If he wants to F*CK himself up then let 'em !!!!!!!!!!!! All I'm Say'in is if you know what the f*ck your do'in, GET THE F*ck OUT OF THE WAY POLICE PUSSIES!!!!!!!!!!

[KidBers]

@Ian7570 some guys have terrible form but he's form is pretty nice

[nortekiller]

you could do a little less of that upper body motion of rocking back and forth but everything else looks great

[xCuremytragedyx]

[bbtizzle77]
