  1. Would you suggest using this dip variation with weighted dips? How much more difficult is this on the scapula in percentage? I see it transferring very good to hollow position for chalisthenic enthusiasts…

  2. Dare I say this is the best Jeff video??? Nah, the next weeks will be better… as always!!
    Thank you so much Jeff. I was the very definition of a couch potato and now I actually go to the gym everyday. No gains yet but getting there!

  3. I have been trying to motivate myself to get off the couch for the longest time. Viewing your videos gives alot of encouragement and more than ample advice on how to improve on the old ways of exercising.

  4. Hey Jeff, love the channel! I’m a traditional martial artist and starting to train jiu Jitsu. My strength program is 5×5 and I’ve been doing that for a few months now. I need to increase my strength and I’m 45 so I’m trying to stay young. Any tips or videos you have done that may be helpful. My problems are minor but I feel like my flexibility in my hips is being compromised. Thanks

  5. is it possible to do a beginner workouts in weight training? i absolutely love this channel but i'm having a hard time finding exercises for each part… I also feel like i'm doing some wrong because the next day i don't feel the pain or burn of it :/

  6. Hey I have a question hopefully someone has an answer for. I don't know for sure whether to go to muscle failure or not each time. I have a friend that tells me that you shouldn't go to failure but maybe 2 reps before that. Then again I've read that on others comments on these videos that you should. I have a slight problem when I go to failure. I lift your typical 8-12 reps or however many I can do for that exercise at the time…

    But the next set I wait 2 and a half minutes do it again and I'll do a lot less reps. And so forth with the next few sets that I do. (I typically do 3-5 sets per exercise). How come I get weaker everytime? Is it because I don't get enough oxygen restored in my muscles? I've had cardiovascular problems such as when I used to do P/E at a young age and would wind badly before everyone else. My sister has asthma so maybe that's what's holding me back?

    Any input would be much appreciated thank you.

  7. If anyone is an ORIGINAL athlean x fan👋. You would know which one of these were already done in the old X BOX… i been maximizing my gains. Since the days of jeff's 45 second intros to athlean x videos

  8. I don't understand the lunge variation because when you do the "forward part" of the exercise looks like you bend the lower back so it could be potentially dangerous for the lower back. Obviously I'm wrong because Jeff knows more than me!! hehehe So, what I am missing here?
