take off all the "&" from the link above if the grey toolbar is bothering you. thumbs up if it worked!

Scott, maybe it's time to do a video where you explain some of the posture terminology you regularly use, like "neutral spine", "neutral grip", etc. That way questions can be directed to yet another helpful Scott Herman video.

[SuperEttinger]

Why do you only do 5 reps? You're supposed to do 8-10 reps in 1 set.

[ThumbsUpBrah]

Man WTF... I was doing this exercise for reps but only like 55lb dumbbell and some manlet phaggot who weighed way less than me had to one-up me...as soon as I got up he did 55lb with BOTH arms simultaneously. Should I have punched him in the face while he had both dumbbels above his head?

[roos08824]

do i need to take my shirt off first, or is it okay to leave it on?

[jons4x4]

Scott you are such a hottie, even though I know how to do most of these workouts, I still check out your videos. I wish you went to LVAC!

Scott wants to try wearing his own t shirts in his vids

@andrewyang1993 thanks a lot man, I should really try that out. I think my ligaments and tendons are a main factor that hold back my further growth...I had problems with my shoulders (I now know what I did wrong) --> tendons. I have pain in my left knee as we speak, but it's not from heavy squats (which funny enough don't hurt at all, even now) it's from running slowly...it's my tendons as well, so I think those exercises you mentioned are a great help for me...thanks buddy.

[andrewyang1993]

@TheFreshbum I think the problem is that you have weak ligaments and/or tendons in your elbows. There are specific exercises to increase the strength and elasticity of them. I advise you to do these exercises daily (search them up, they're very lightweight) and do lighter loads on the actual workout.

[TheFreshbum]

@andrewyang1993 i feel the most tension when my arms are in the starting position. Pushing movements have always worked way better for my triceps than this exercises where you kinda pull.

[andrewyang1993]

@TheFreshbum It's perfectly fine to not fully extend your elbow to perform this exercise (in fact, I heard it's better for you due to less risk of tendon and ligament strains). If you have weak joints, then just extend your arms right before you feel the elbows lock.
