Shoulder Front Raises

[scooby1961]

SORRY, COMMENTS TURNED OFF

[TorynHill]

great video scooby

[jorrit1192]

hell yeah scoob had DOMS² thank you keep it up ;)

[ZombieNozz]

Are these as good as shoulder presses? My chiropractor recommended I not do shoulder presses, but said that front raises are okay. I just don't think they look like you'll get the same results.

[BrooklynFinest2020]

The leaner ( non exagerated version) is the best way to do it ... Just cause he's big muscular dont mean the other methods wont work as well ... hes big and muscular cause he eats well its that simple .. as far as the pogo stick form foes ive never seen ppl do that before but oh well

[Tomaszeks]

I like your style - LOL

[Ricardo1030]

Thanks Scoob. 8)

[ImTheDude909]

Thanks Scooby :).

[sanoichiro]

SCOOBY, thanks for the info. I LOVE (and hate) working shoulders. And front and lateral raises are my fovorite burn out moves. I do rest pause sets, starting with 15 to 20. I go really light (just a 10 lb plate in each hand). When I locked my shoulder blades back, I could barely lift the plates for 10 reps. Guess my form was not as good as I thought. Should I lock my shoulder blades back on lateral raises too? It was harder to do, but I didn't get as much of a pump.

[piercedavid]

Leaner or no, 75lb is preposterous. Cheers to you scooby.

[AIversonI]

Great video thanks!!

[JosueDanielTV]

Hey everyone, Josh and Daniel here, We'd love it if you guys could come down to our channel and check out some of our workout videos to help you get in shape for the summer and a little extra sketches on the side! We just started a few days ago and we're on to a good start. Check us out and sub only if you really like it :) Thanks everyone

[SuperNinjaElmo]

I saw your mom doing the pogostick last night, so i corrected her form

[NJnaturalBB]

@lordargos1 You just answered yourself, he doesn't compete.

[Haizum74]

'Its doing nothing for ya shoulders', no and its wrecking ya plants too lol

[theincredibledorian]

So true... I'll follow your advice. You're the best scooby!

[SkaPablito]

Thanks Scooby! Gym is my drug and I try to improve every day. I already knew how to practice shoulders, but it`s always great to know it better. respect Scooby!

[NJnaturalBB]

@lordargos1 Scooby is NOT a pro bodybuilder.

[usuario0000123456789]

hey, Scooby! what do you think about the arnold press??

[Frosty539018]

hahaha the leaner/pogo stick combination. very deadly!

[MrsPoker]

2.34 and you're mouth..

[arcas17]

Good video, but at 0:35, when you say "if you're having shoulder problems or shoulder pain, please start with this video—it's my video on doing the stabilizing exercises for the shoulder," there is (presumably) supposed to be an annotation with a link to the shoulder stabilization exercises video, but it doesn't appear.

[RcKis0]

YouTube didn't put this in my subscriptions box! >=(

[arcas17]

@RcKis0 YT didn't put it into mine either.

[batmansbodyguard]

damn scooby you look amazing for your age.... :D actually good for anyones age

[thelikemonster]

Scooby, you keep forgetting to mention in all of your videos the steroids you take to look like that.

[VincenzoSerio]

@thelikemonster

You really missed the whole point here :-)

[VuidoT22]

@thelikemonster you are implying any and everybody who has a good physique must be using steroids. It's probably because you think you yourself can not obtain this physique with out the aid of performance enhancers. You are dead wrong; any body can get to this level, it just takes a certain dedication that most people's mental barricades can not allow. the humanbeing is indeed capable of great things. the moment you say you cant say do something is the moment you actually cant do it JACK

[NJnaturalBB]

@VuidoT22 You're right in certain aspects, but no, not everyone can get a great physique even with perfect nutrition.

[hideki12345]

so ture haha. 90% of the people I see in the gym do the pogostick. 

[yellowbandana]

i prefer they way jay cutler does them. get a little swing on the way up and focusing on lower your arms slower on the way down. he said it gets the muscle more on the way down anyways

[gammatnt]

great video as always. thank you .

[Brunovisk726]

Hi, scooby. Im a beginner and your videos helped me out a Lot!

thank you so much, keep up the good work, bro!

[TheMRamstaff]

cannot do these :(( my shoulder joint pops when y do front raises , y have to do them with a form like punching , and y rather not do that .

[NJnaturalBB]

@TheMRamstaff Many clients have that problem its very common, try gripping the dumbbell the same way you would as if you were doing a hammer curl, it should take alot of stress off your rotator cuff.

[Valkyria900]

@scooby1961 Hey Scooby, im not saying i think you are wrong, but that version you called the leaner, that was exactly how Arnold did the front raises (you can find it on youtube). And he went all the way up until his arm was pointing straight up, and he leaned alittlebit forward before each rep. How come?

[VincenzoSerio]

@Valkyria900

Steroids ;-)

[Lazyboi69r]

@Valkyria900 Arnold also used performance enhancing steroids. Not the ideal role-model.

[NJnaturalBB]

@Lazyboi69r WHAT!? Arnold is the greatest role model any lifter can have, he started of a skinny boy in a small village in Austria and with dedication, sacrifice, courage and hard work he became a 7x Mr Olympia and the Governor of the eighth largest economy in the world, and your discrediting his work because he used steroids?!? You need to be highly educated on AAS/PH/HGH etc, never disrespect a bodybuilder for using a drug and admitting to it.

[Qjemuse]

thanks. Scooby I screwed up my shoulder realbd from bad form of bench press years ago. it still hurts whatever shoulder exercises I do (even 10 lbs military press...)

I hope you could upload more vids about shoulder injuries. thanks again respect everything you do :)

[MrD0minican]

Scoob you should do a video about lower abs and the correct way to do it.

[jwoodford90]

can u really gain a huge amount of muscle by doing these excersizes that slow n light.. obv with high protein medium carb diet

[KnockCZ]

wtf, i completely missed this video wtf? anyways great as always, front raises cause a weird strain on the lower part of my biceps though which is weird

[birdman4birdlegs]

If you don't mind me asking, how do you see all this bad form if you workout at home? Is it youtube or do you go the gym more than I am assuming you go?

[PopShepski]

SCOoB!

Please do a video on proper chainsaw rip form.

I don't do more than 50 lbs good, slow form with them but I always see people trying to crank 100's with no RoM and jerky,swing form.

[Shinywhite]

Haha scooby you should really make a video from your own workouts.

[xEmoSolidSnakex]

his reanactment of bad form is annoying he should just show us and save us the 5min extra video. no offense to his work

[PunisherPlaythroughs]

Scooby, i was just wondering if im doing my chest workout wrong. I followed your two exercises for chest Dumbbell Flyes and Dumbbell "Bench" Presses (on the floor), but today my chest isnt sore at all, but my shoulders are. I tried to copy your form exactly, but i'm not feeling it. Am i doing something wrong? Is it normal to not feel sore in the chest? (By the way, i have a very weak chest.)

[LilVador]

Hey scooby, thanks alot. Never stop making videos. Your meals are awsome. And your proper workout videos are excellent.

[Metaxas360]

Hab ich auch schon oft gesehen Scooby... gutes video.

Tschüss ;)

[AppleInYourPie]

Scooby please I want a meal plan.. :(

[SuperSmashShows]

his glaces are brocken

[Nimnoms]

I generally just do military press and shoulder side raises.

[MrIShatOnU]

when you look at bodybuilder videos on youtube they mostly do "leaners" :D

[TheScuba1995]

Hello scooby. I was wondering if you could make a video about baseball workouts.

[Alu122112211221]

Hey Scooby, why does everyone tell each other to use perfect form, while some bodybuilders use horrible form and they have huge muscles?

[petrolheadNUMBERONE]

Hello scooby i am 14 years old and i am following your teen workout and i was wondering if i can add some exercises to it like the front raises ?

[officechronic]

@petrolheadNUMBERONE can add front rises easily

[e5o7]

@lordargos1 it could be because he's 6'3", and 235 pounds, he's a very large person and it's harder for huge people to look ripped.

[redrosecross]

You the man Scooby

[WhiteWidowRider]

fukn leaners hahahahahhahahahhaha

[skatersirian]

Scooby, the form you're showing here is different from the form you showed in a vid from years ago. Here's the vid:

watch?v=SizTOJCBs5w

I've been using the form in the vid (from years ago) 'cause front raises with my arms extended feel funny on my elbows. The form on your vid that I linked to is fine too right?

[ICE9RLN0]

I try to keep it at 12 reps. Injuries suck

[Ninety9Soulz]

WTF why didn't this video show up in my subscriptions!!!  I've been wondering why scooby hasn't been uploading!

[NutritiouslyHigh]

@Ninety9Soulz Same here. I blame the shit layout youtube forces upon us.

[joszer]

Hey Scooby, what are your opinions on the bowflex?

[071197Gray]

Good vid man

[RandyNumNutz]

gymnasts are hench an only use body weight exercises and pound for pound can not only out lift bodybuilders but also do many exercises a bodybuilder generaly couldnt

i would be intrested to hear ur opinion scooby

u do great vids much love :]

[MrLrndj]

"extreme basic strength gym" mrlrndj check it out

[MrLrndj]

hey i want to send u the vid of my gym but i cant until u accept me as a friend aaaaaaawwwwwwwwww

[abazaba117]

I've been doing shoulder front raises the normal way for a long time, and I just tried this way the last time I worked out exactly as shown, and I injured my shoulder...lame.

[workouta]

scooby. how much do you weigh? and how tall are you?

[USA4thewin]

Timing is awsome for this video as I am starting to have shoulder pain when doing military press. and Ok I have to admit my form on front raises need to be a little better.

Might stop military press dumbell and move to a barbell press and less weight

[moodwendah]

You talk like a fucking idiot. And you are gay.

[deiiii]

hey scooby were you already muscular before you started working out?

[TheNewAlias]

Should you have thumbs pointed up or to the side when you're doing front raises? You're the first I've seen doing them pointed up..

[22complexity]

what do you think of steve turranos videos?

[ObesityMyth]

Obesity is hellishly complex, Scooby. Genuine science has linked gut microbiota, malnutrition, genetics, toxins, lack of sleep. medications as being connected to obesity.

Genuine science always admits uncertainty and vast unknowns. You need an education badly. RAZWELLDOTBLOGSPOTDOTCOM. READ Razwell's obesity blog. Look into Dr. Jeffrey Friedman

NO ONE has the cert to fat loss. ANYONE guaranteeing results is a SCAMMER.

[moeshizzz1]

@lordargos1 yeah i get u but scooby is like 51 years old

[frostxr]

Thanks Scooby! Love your Information. I never thought about holding my shoulders back. I'm not even sure How i do it. But next week Ill surely keep that in mind.

[batterycock]

is it the same exercise with palms facing down?

[bo3abedsama]

great video scoob, U should really visit every gym in the world just to teacg people how to NOT do bad forms

[goat6inboots]

You took me back to what I had forgotten. Form with the right weight = brilliant shape and body. I tried again to do my shoulder workout last night in the garden (again, your influence) and it felt right in all the right places; something I had not felt in a long time. I want to thank you. I wish I had your guidance about 15 years ago; I would have avoided wasted energy, time and injury...

[crazee635]

Thanks for another informative video Scooby. I think if you did a book on diet and fitness it would be a best seller as the most genuine book on the market unlike a lot of the junk books I have read on weight training !

[RTX94]

I have a question about body-building; should I be lifting lighter weights in more repetitions or heavier weights in fewer repetitions? For instance: at the GYM, I usually lift 20-30 kilograms in chest workouts. I do 3 sets of 12, 10 and 8. However, If I lift 30-40 kilograms, I can only do about 10 repetitions before I feel really tired. Any advice?

[mirrorpiece]

I always get enough protein, workout to failure (maybe squats not always for safety reasons) Obsessed by health... and i get own'd hard in arm, back and chest exercises by a person who might not even get enough protein, works his muscles 2, 3 times a week. Even a skinny guy always eating junkfood looked at me strange when i said i could only do like 5, 6 chin ups. What the hell am i doing wrong? (17 years old, 18 sets - delts, chest, lats, 16- legs, 12-abs (daily except Tuesday 5) 15, tric, bic

[Binadance]

at 4:17 i was already exercising the workout but when i saw this i needed to laugh so hardly that my dumbells fell down xD

[scooby1961]

@Binadance Glad I made you laugh! I try to incorporate enough humor to keep things from sounding like a class lecture :)

[USA4thewin]

@scooby1961 well if he hurt himself hen the dumbell fell down on him are you might be held up liable in court

thanks

[USA4thewin]

@scooby1961 If he hurt himself on those dumbells YOU WILL BE HELD liable in court XD

[kingnek]

@scooby1961 scooby1961, do all shoulder workouts, like military press, require us to bring our shoulder blade back? thanks!

[fruitysnacks101]

@Binadance so hardly?

[moeshizzz1]

@lordargos1 yeah that makes sense with what i just said

[GriffinBrumley]

Scooby, looking good as ever ::: Healthy / muscular / good skin etc. Probably the healthiest 50 year old I know.

[VegeXP]

@lordargos1 Its possible he doesnt want to go that low in fat because its healthy to have some fat.

[officereagle]

@lordargos1 he does have abs. you do see them as distinctly in most of his vids because he doesn't sit there flexing the whole time to show them off. type "scooby1961 abs" and in the first vids you can see them much better.

[godwhitepk]

scooby is my role model <3

[e5o7]

@lordargos1 it's cuz he's sitting down and didn't do a bunch of crunches before the video. Normally people with crazy abs have them because they're starved for competitions, they just did abs, and they are flexing.

[moeshizzz1]

@lordargos1 they are barely visible because he isnt flexing them usually people with over 9% body arent able to see abs without flexing

[TheGamegangsta2]

WTF i never saw that video in my sub box

[facelessfatloss]

Scooby...this is one of my fave videos from you. People have shoulder issues constantly, and now I have a video I can refer them to for a start. GREAT vid.

[BrenxX90]

scooby your friend jean here, home come you don't have crazy vascularity or strecth marks?

[e5o7]

@BrenxX90 I assume it's because he earned his muscle over many years, instead of blowing up like a balloon on roids.

[BrenxX90]

scooby your friend jean here, home come you don't have crazy vascularity or strecth marks?

[TheIncridibleOne]

Hell scooby, you look so young and strong...it's incridible that you're almost 50 years old!

[daswada9]

can i get the same effect if i do push ups let say 500 a day ?

[leonardosbavas]

@daswada9 I smell overtraining....

[eek0o]

should the palms be facing inwards? or facing downwards (at the end of the rep)

[jonathansolorio1395]

thanks so much for the advice. i been doing this wrong the whole time:p

[kibaalberto]

dude show us your house its seams bad ass show us scoobys CRIB XD hahah

[kessler003]

i think the real backgrounds look better(not so much the green screen ones)

[Dolittlefilms]

do you actaully do home workouts yourself ?

[barisperim]

why is your shirt always of ?

[fiveohstang]

Scooby, thanks for reminding us about quality over quantity.

[ThisIsGreece]

scooby please make a video about creatine... i am 16 and i am not sure if i should use it in the future.

[Juggernaut76]

@ThisIsGreece

Creatine exists in your body already. It helps form Adenosine tri-phosphate which is a muscle energy transport. You will gain temporary water weight, but the benefit is looking fuller & varying improvement in muscular endurance. Its no miracle, but it can help reps.

Your body makes it from arginine, methionine, & glycine which are amino acids. Eating more meat can raise plasma creatine. The choice is yours, but avoid it if you have kidney problems. Also drink extra water w/ it.

[ScrappyCoco58]

Scooby, what is your opinion on crossfit training as appose to just issolating the muscle ( bicep curls etc...) for a 16 year old, and also other ages ?

[Elijahrah]

Scooby, you're are the only person I trust for advice on physical and nutritional and I respect you deeply for that.

I hope you read this because I really want to know.

I have just two simply questions,

1. How tall were you when you were 18?

2. At what age did you become a vegetarian?

[ashihtaka]

I think everyone wants to know - where did you study and what kind of Engineer are you?

[Dario927]

i could have sworn i saw Hans lurking in the greenery :)

[VeryHardToGet]

You are one funny big man ! 

[clubsoda69]

Scooby, you're pretty huge. I was just wondering, you don't seem to throw around crazy heavy weights in your videos. But how did you get so massive without leg pressing like 500 pounds and benching a ton. I like that you are strict with form and diet, but how did you put on so much size? Can you get big only bench pressing 50 pound dumbbells, if you do it for many years? Or do you need to constantly lift heavier and heavier? Cuz at some point you can only lift so much, ya know? THANKS!

[scooby1961]

@clubsoda69 I'm here to show people how to do the exercises, not to show off :) I lift heavy, I just rarely do it in videos.

[leonardosbavas]

@scooby1961 I remember our scooby performing db flys with 90 pound dumbells with PERFECT form... O.o Thats proof to me :) . RESPECT scoob.

[ccicc]

@scooby1961

You are a great guy! For that reason people love you, love your videos and learn with you.

[officechronic]

@scooby1961 PLEASE SCOOBY, COULD YOU MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT A CORE WORKOUT FOR INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED BODYBUILDER. WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED. LOVE, YOUR BIGGEST FAN FROM NEWZEALAND.

[kilikadork]

@scooby1961 Everyone has been born a sinner. Have you ever lied, stolen, hated someone(Jesus said this is murder in his eyes), committed adultery(Jesus said if you look at someone with lust, then you have committed adultery in your heart). If you could say yes to any of these then you are a sinner. The wages of sin is death. But there is good news. Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins, and if you accept him as your Lord and Savior you will have everlasting life.

[fasy16]

@scooby1961 Im glad you said that. But can you wear a shirt? because i'm distracted while watching your useful videos :D no offence

[thelikemonster]

@scooby1961 You forgot to mention the steroids you take to look like that!

[aragamito3]

@scooby1961 You lift heavy ? Well, i guess i`m not the only one who wants to know how heavy you lift! Post some stats PLEASE ;) And don`t say that you don`t like to show off, it sound like a hypocritical lie ;)

[Heppe2k]

@scooby1961 You are totally for real Scooby, gotta love it!

[thamoslil]

@scooby1961 we need a half hour vid of u lifting =p

[Juggernaut76]

@clubsoda69

Sure he lifts heavy. Body building is forcing your body to adapt to handle the work you give it. Weight goes up and muscles try their best to handle it through hypertrophy if conditions are proper like nutrition, rest, and genetics.

The 'growth' range is 6-10 reps where the last few should be somewhat difficult. If they are easy move the weight up. Weight amounts are how I set goals besides the look I want. Looking bigger and feeling stronger are the rewards for your hard work.

[shinshoryuken]

@clubsoda69

He chest presses 100+ lb dumbells easily....

[irrepressiblenobody]

i used to do a mild form of the pogostick when i frist started workout. sad thing you see in the gym is guys with good sized arms stll doing it, but you cant tell them they're doing it wrong they'll never listen.

[upxup]

Scooby,

I LOVE YOUR VIDEO!

Many guys know how to do workouts,

but not many know how to teach others.

You are a great trainer!

You point out what we SHOULD and SHOULD NOT clearly in point form.

Great job!!!

Stay tuned for your channel

[4ustr4li4]

scooby, you r always shirtless in your videos, i was just wondering does it ever get cold where you live?

[Kolgart]

Yes! An exercise video! Keep'em coming!

[Kolgart]

@Kolgart (Please)

[TheManWithNoShadow]

Well I've found out that for best form you can just put your back against the wall , in that way you have to try really hard in order to use bad form :D

[wikki11]

wow Scooby, u look better then ever!

grüße aus deutschland ;D

[solzaproductions]

this video made me wanna pee

[andorhalier]

Hey Scooby, one question if I may. When you workout only with your bodyweight, do you still need to work one muscle group per day? Like when you use weights? Thanks .

[catboy619]

Hey Scooby im 15 years old, lean and 63 kilograms and i have been working out for a wile now and i want to start being very strict on my nutrition. i have read on your website that 1600 calories a day in 6 small meals is how much i should consume but im just worried that 1600 calories wont be enough for me because im still growing. What do you think?

[bijukjcmi]

SCOOBY U R REALLY GREAT..........!!!

i have been learning from u for six months now...

and have already improved a little...

i have become a fan of urs...

i am also recommending ur videos to my friends and students here in india.

HATS OFF TO THE GOOD WORK...

[bijukjcmi]

[lunaretic3]

lol sounds like he's peeing while filming the video.

[IonicGell200]

Glad your filming in your garden again :)

[haliaeetus19]

I really enjoy these viseos and I have to ask you 1 quetion if you dont mind answering.

Is it over training if you do cardio daily with a pack or vest that adds more weight to the body? Is it even healthy to do so?

[theabsoluteconcept]

The leaners and pogostickers are practising for their next acting roles in The Walking Dead and Zombies

[Orion8888]

Hey Scooby, did you ever find out what your shoulder inflammation was caused by?

[Orion8888]

I disagree with scooby's form. You do not want to go this slow if your goal is optimal muscle contraction. I prefer a slight "Leaner' form because you really want to focus more on the negative with this exercise and hold the weight at the top for a second. Go to JayCutlerTV and watch how the Mr. O works out. He's numero uno because he deeply understands the mind to muscle relationship.

[kingofrice94]

Hey Scooby, I am 17 years old and pretty obese. I tend to eat unhealthy foods a lot and want to stop. My exercise compromises of daily tennis. I need help losing weight, how can you motivate someone that has tried many many times to lose it, but gives up after the first few days. I NEED YOUR HELP!

[VegeXP]

@kingofrice94 Check out his video called ''Fitness Resolution and Motivation'' and check out his website also theres a lot of information out there.

[Kovayne]

Lol i will admit i'm a bit of the Leaner! i never really thought about doing it while sitting(I like doing most of my lifting standing)but i will give it a shot! =) I haven't done these babies in a while(been focused on Front military raises and the regular military press) Thank you Scooby(oh and btw,if you can..can you make a video about how to do proper Hammer curls and V curls?there seems to be some confusion as to how to do it properly,Thank you.)

[PantallicA92]

if i want powerful explosive shoulders then would i still go slow?

[InspctrClouseau]

I wish my garden, among other things, looked like Scooby's.

[StormHornet56]

You ever just walk around the street without a shirt on and watch people's reactions? haha thatd be awesome.

[ChedWick05]

This is a really helpful video for me. I unfortunately have very little shoulder mass.. Makes me actually look like I have a pear body shape despite having a 30 inch waist.

Plus some of these exercises have helped me while I was in highschool when I had horrible shoulder pain. 

[barakota89]

thanks that was alot of help



[eiasim]

lmao........very informative you have a lot of good advice!Problem though to many critics and gym rats believe they are the gurus when in fact they no sweet tweet and in fact are uninformed and do not take well to constructive criticism or advice.Props to you and good work on the tube.Cheers E.

[fedegroxo]

I'm a slight leaner :P, actually I think my form was almost perfect, only with a quicker motion.

[TheUfcfanboy]

is it just me or does scooby look in the best shape in thisvid

[Agrarlitan]

the poogo stick i see a lot when people do hammer curls

[MrRossisme]

Scooby: What is your opinion on Pre-workouts(Jack3d)....Also, could you explain we do you think Creatine is bad, and what does it do exactly, based on my research, creatine is not bad, i want to know your own personal opinion... i like your point of view...

[MrRossisme]

@MrRossisme It gives a bit more endurance and strength but u gotta make sure u drink enough when u take it
