46 years old today and have been training for 30 years myself I am an expert in all fields to do with health and fitness. You took the words right out of my mouth. The new generation has forgotten everything's the last generation learned to do with health and fitness. A lot of the stupid things people are talking about today we're already solved with tests and studies 30 years ago. But because the new generation has no education on the subject the market takes advantages of them and sells them the same crap that we know better than to take. The human body is the most complex piece of machinery known to humans. Walking into the gym without being an expert in what we do is like building your own space shuttle to go to Pluto with a first grade education. I've met two people in my life that have anywhere near the education I do in the industry. They have KZfaq now and I did the hard way. I make my living from the industry and I am $100 an hour and I will only train people that are not bodybuilders and that are serious and usually have problems that other experts supposedly had not been able to figure out. There's so much misinformation out there that a newbie would not be able to tell the s*** from shinola. The only reason I can is because I have three almost four degrees on the subjects. You want to know something the only reason people listen to me is cuz I'm the biggest guy they know. 30 lb of muscle made a difference between they listen to me not The Three degrees I have that are masters degrees. That's how stupid people are. They will listen to the person they want to look like more than a person that has five doctorates and usually that person got their by using piles of drugs and completely lying about how they got their physique. I ran into it thousands of times. I am the only person I know that is one a state show that was truly natural. Well Ronnie Coleman did do. He was able to get as big as I was natural when I actually used the gear. When he got on gear it was over with and he dominated for a decade. Talk about genetics right. What you brought up really bothers me because I spent my life trying to fix that problem and there's two or three channels on KZfaq use to save them decades of wasted efforts and save their lives potentially. But honestly it's only about three the rest don't know what they're talking about and it's all bro science not real information. Glad you're still around as long as me cuz I know bodybuilders are dropping us flies there's been in the business for 30 years like we have. Only thing good about a long life is proving that I knew what I'm talking about because knowledge is power and now knowledge is life. We have the information now to completely stop all the stupid mistakes that are done in health and fitness. Unfortunately we cannot stop to people lying about how they got there. Take care of yourself I hope you're in there another 30 years brother. Stay safe and healthy

I used to think this man. There are so many you tube videos, fitness mags and social media channels that surely there is no excuse for incorrect form? Then lockdown happened and I tried to learn a spanish and play bass guitar.... long story short, I suck. Lol. Made me think just because these things come so easily for me does not mean it will for some people who go gym. I figured everything out for myself and after a few years of training comleted in my first show and come 2nd. I was the only person there who was competing for the 1st time yet I blew people off the stage who had been competing years. However, no matter how much I practice on that damn bass I just can't see any improvement. Its got to be the same for most of these people. No matter how many videos and clear intructions they follow they just can't seem to preform a simple deadlift or lat pulldown ect.

Now the roblem is too many information so they cant really know. Every influencer says totally contradicting things to say

Got nealry 22 years under my belt...I too have noticed this unfortunate fact. Seems most aren't actually interested in proper training, training form, nutrition, rest, and recovery....which would explain why they're form is off, and they have no Physique etc

@@Perun.Tha.Unvaxxd Agree with you there pal..Most of the young guys at the Gym I go to now, Don't look they have ever lifted. I was shocked when two mates told me they started 2 years ago! I notive they rest wayyyyy too long between sets (looking at their phones and chatting, when they should be focusing on their next set)..They also seem to do 20 sets of benches?? Why? I felt like saying 6 time MR Olympia winners still do 4 sets per exercise mate! And ur right, their form is WAY off...(squatting only halfway)

Yes. I am seeing more and more kids do behind the neck presses and lat pulldowns again. I did those in my youth and attribute them somewhat to my shoulder pain. It's been many many years since I have seen gym members do them but now they are being done again. I also see trainers having clients do exercises and getting the name of the body part being worked wrong. Basics, people, basic information.

An act of God is never a mistake. I say when it rains, let it pour. The crops need to grow. If there is a raining mistake, it's not having your field properly fertiLized. Thanks

KILLING yourselves for FAKE STEROID muscles = LOSERS!! Stay natural buddy!

I used to do finger pull-up like a rock climber for some time but after a while my elbows were killing me then my shoulders. I did stop before major damage set in. Sometimes getting creative just isn't worth it.

Use STEROIDS and do it behind everyone's back, then come out and say you "worked harder" than everyone else, that's why you are "bigger" and "stronger"! Then endorse supplements with your STEROID body claiming it's from the supplements you sell!!! Stay natural buddy!

I miss the conversations he used to have with Ric Drasin before Ric passed away a lot of knowledge there a lot of natural knowledge!

Jerry spent a lot of time on Rics corner with Ric Drasin they are both Old timer Golden age bodybuilders and man the conversations they had will blow your mind!

Try hanging from a chin bar. If you can’t support the weight of your whole body, use a step and start with partial body weight. Good luck 💪

Thank you for supporting my argument guys

@@AhmadKhan-xm1bg No problem bro

It's kind of a given. At a certain age you wouldn't want to be lifting heavy as the body naturally ages and isn't as resilient. PEDs could overcome that, but of course, you always want to take care of your health first and foremost.

dont have to go light ever....u have to lift appropriate weight...less or more is not the point....just make sure the muscle is doing the work...little momentum

@@soofitnsexy wtf are you talking about? Lift heavy even though your older? The body can't repair itself like when it was younger, you need to put the crack pipe down and sober up, your advice will put people in an early grave.

Doing steroids is akin to climbing Mt Everest on bottled oxygen and using a team of Sherpas to carry your crap up the mountain.

We are RUINING the ROIDER'S & STEROID DEFENDER'S FANTASY! Let's continue to EXPOSE them! They want to walk around with their FAKE STEROID muscles acting like they "worked harder" than everyone else! I don't get all excited over these STEROID FAKES! Stay natural buddy!

@@steroidsR4losers all steroids do is decrease the time frame of how long you need to lift to get results, so if someone natural trained for 10 years correctly, a person on gear could get the body in 5, and it allows someone to put on more weight while being lean, they aren't fake muscles so I don't even know why you say that, and if it was as easy as you say everybody would look like arnold, either way both people work out hard, gear or not you still have to diet you still have to go to the gym, you still have to do cardio, you still can't eat cookies everyday

@@steroidsR4losers i would love to see you go on steroids and try to be as big as arnold and see how much work it is, google how long he used to be in the gym for, ill tell you, 6 hours a day, yeah try to do that, since its so easy, go look at Chris bumstead how many hours he's in the gym for and how much he's eating, I have a feeling you don't understand how hard it actually is

No point listening to any professional bodybuilder or doing any exercise they tell you to do. They have superb genetics plus are on the sauce most of the year if not permanently.

@@peternagy-im4be Precisely.

Frank Zane was kind of small

Frank wasn't about mass monster size. He was about symmetry and proportion. Conditioning. Today they all look the same and bloated. Terrible what these drugs are doing to the human body. And they are dropping like flies now.

Same

@@steroidsR4losers LOL that's funny you're pretty creative. Ive thought that myself many times over my 30-year bodybuilding career. Stay clean and I hope you have a long life of Health & physical fitness!👍🏽💪🏽

The ROIDER'S plan book: 1. HIDE the STEROID use. Don't ever bring up STEROIDS. LIE & DENY their use when asked. If that doesn't work, go to plan 2. 2. DOWNPLAY STEROIDS. Tell people STEROIDS doesn't do anything. If that doesn't work, go to plan 3. 3. COMPARE STEROIDS to other UNHEALTHY things like ALCOHOL, CIGARETTES, ETC... "Try" and JUSTIFY using STEROIDS. If that doesn't work, go to plan 4. 4. Call them names & CURSE at them. Even if you admit to using STEROIDS, you still have FAKE muscles and FAKE strength! Stay natural buddy!

Or dips..

Exactly. These older dudes think they are the bible to working out

She is badly misinformed.

Everybody’s different, Arnold did many abdominal repetitions, seemed to work for him

I trained with Zane and learned a heck of a lot. He taught me its findings the exercises that works for you. Never let someone tell you what will and will not work for you. Let your body tell you that. Oh yea, it doesn't matter when he won his titles, the fact he won them speaks for itself.

As long as you can track progressive overload. I do the same 4 exercises per muscle group. It looks like I’m the only one in my gym with a note book. Everyone else just wings it.

@@DannyDemonic666 yep same here. But after so long in the gym it's easy to remember your routine. Haven't opened my notebook in months. But always try going harder than last time 💪

Im doing a 43 rep set for 2 to 3 sets per body part. 6 reps heavy... 12reps medium and 25reps light to burnout. 2min max between sets

@@hardbodytraining100 I’m switching back to what I’ve been doing the past 40 yrs . High intensity low volume , drop sets ocassionaly but no negatives or partials , not my thing for longevity . I will go a little higher with reps

not attacking, debunking

@@doomedspacemarine5076 Very true. Poor choice of words from me.

I always worked abs every day, and did a good 400 and upward for total reps of abs. Before a contest, I’d move that up to as many as 1,000 reps a day. This did two things. First it trained the abdominals and second it helped shed some of the unwanted pounds before a bodybuilding contest. As depicted previously on this site, a common approach by ‘old school’ bodybuilders was to increase the number of repetitions per workout prior to a contest. Zane, it seems, was no exception. At its longest, these ab sessions took Zane roughly thirty minutes to complete. It’s perhaps no surprise that the results spoke for themselves. What then were the exercises of choice? In true Zen form, Zane stuck to the pure fundamentals, a point he observed in the training of ‘Zabo’ Koszewski. ‘Zabo’ as many iron heads will remember, was famed for having the best abdominals in Venice, which at the time, was a highly coveted title! To maintain his supremacy, Zabo would would do 500 Roman-chair situps in the morning and 500 leg raises in the afternoon. After observing Zabo in training, Zane decided to do likewise. Thus ‘The Chemist’ as he became known focused on doing a few ab exercises but doing them in a marathon style. For the upper abdominals, Zane emulated Zabo by performing crunches and/or Roman-chair situps ad nauseam. These were interspersed with leg raises or hanging knee-ups and seated twists for his obliques.

yep

Cardio should never be done prior to weight-training unless it's used as a short, 5 to 10 minute warm-up, which itself is not necessary.
