Most people are not engaging as much of their abs as they could be on a decline ab crunch. IMO, you should aim upwards rather than simply curl your torso forwards. This may seem counterintuitive but since the resistance is directly downwards (due to gravity), you’ll be able to better maintain resistance by aiming upwards. Thus, you’re trading less shortening of the upper abs with a descending resistance profile with more involvement of the mid and lower abs under more resistance #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

If you’re doing a cable curl with the goal to train the biceps, it’s best to perform the movement facing away from the cables as this will allow for a more lengthened focused bicep curl. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

Here’s what to do if you fail on bench press with no spotter. This is why I don’t recommend using clips on bench press if you’re solo #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

Should you turn your wrist as you do bicep curls (supinate as you go) or stay supinated the entire time if your goal is maximizing biceps growth? Well, there’s a strong case to do both. One of the functions of the biceps is supination thus by training supination you’re training another function of the biceps that isn’t often trained on barbell variations. On the other hand, if you stay supinated the biceps are better biased at the part of the range of motion where it has the best leverage (bottom half of the curl). So my advice is you should be doing both. And if you are already doing preacher curls or cable curls where it’s not possible to supinate as you go — might as well do them on dumbbell curls where you have the freedom to do so. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

I in fact do not recommend the leaning cable lateral raise when you can get the same resistance profile in a more stable manner by slightly adjusting the cables. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding #TikTokTaughtMe

Can you spot one of the most sneaky ways you’re cheating yourself on Bayesian cable curls? If you’re putting your wrist into flexion and not fully extending the elbow between every rep — you could be leaving bicep gains on the table. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding #TikTokTaughtMe

Does the lat pulldown train your mid back? That is the traps, rhomboids etc. The answer is probably not, if you’re performing it optimally for the lats. Thid is one of the biggest misconceptions about lat training I see. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

The sneakiest mistake on leg extensions has to do more with your hands than your legs. That is, you should be pulling yourself into the seat at all times with your glutes planted on the seat. This will surely humble you if you’ve been doing them with your glutes off the seat in the past #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

Here’s what most people get wrong when trying to lose body fat. They focus too much on creating as big of a calorie deficit as they can handle just to have a hard time sticking to it long term. In reality, approaching it from the flipped perspective is often much more doable. Take for example my friend who lost ~23lbs across several months but was able to go out, live his life, and most importantly: not gain the fat back. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

If you find yourself feeling the lat pulldown more in your biceps and forearms rather than your lats, I bet that you’re not fully contracting your lats. Best way to tell is to see how low your elbows are getting. Ideally you want to drive your elbows down to the side of your body — if this isn’t occurring, the lats can be more shortened. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

By far the most common mistake on Tricep Pushdowns is bringing shoulder flexion and extension into the movement. The way to fix this is fairly simple, you pull your shoulders back and avoid bringing them forward. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

The sneakiest mistake I’ve seen on bench press is internally rotating your shoulders at the bottom. The reason this is so sneaky is that many have grown accustomed to just resting the bar on their chest (even if it’s for just a split second). Ideally at the bottom of the rep, you should still keep tension on the pecs and avoid losing that scapular depression. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

If the back of your neck / spine is hurting from the bar on squats, you’re likely not racking the bar properly. Even on a high bar squat, the bar should ideally be resting on your traps as you “shelf” your traps together by elevating and retracting the scapula. #fyp #ritbess #gym #bodybuilding

If you’re not feeling your lats when you’re doing lat Pulldowns, it’s likely that you’re pulling with more elbow flexion compared to shoulder adduction. Here’s how to fix #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding #TikTokTaughtMe

If your gym doesn’t have a mag grip, here’s the best alternative for the mag grip pulldown using a regular lat pulldown bar that’s arguably better than using mag grip (imo) and still will bias the upper lats. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

Doing Romanian deadlifts on a seated cable row does it make it hard for me to defend those “bro will do anything but pick up a barbell” allegations, but there is an advantage to doing RDLs this way: you can perform them unilaterally with a single leg Romanian deadlift and not have to worry about balance like you’d traditionally would using dumbbells. Unilateral training can lead to better hypertrophy outcomes when the movement is more stable so comparatively to standing single leg deadlift these could be a better option #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding

I haven’t including rope overhead Tricep extensions in my programming for over a year now. Mainly because I think the single cable overhead tricep extension is simply better. #fyp #Fitness #gym #bodybuilding #TikTokTaughtMe
