FREE Protein Book & Cup: http://www.criticalbench.com/growth/proteingiveaway HARDCORE Leg Day workout with Coach Zach and Trainer Chris! The Legs Feed the WOLF 🐺 These guys hit an advanced/heavy Leg Day, pushing each other to the limits and having a great time. Training your legs can boost testosterone through the activation of large muscle groups, such as the quads, hamstrings, and glutes. When these muscles are activated during resistance training exercises like squats and deadlifts, they produce a hormonal response in the body that increases testosterone production. DONT SKIP LEG DAY! Incorporating leg training into your fitness routine can be an effective way to naturally boost your testosterone levels and improve your overall health and wellness. 🔵Thanks for Watching Critical Bench!

FREE Protein Book & Cup: http://www.criticalbench.com/growth/proteingiveaway Full ROM ensure that both the short and long heads of the biceps are fully engaged, leading to more balanced muscle development. This complete stretch and contraction can increase muscle flexibility, reducing the risk of injuries. Additionally, full ROM promotes better joint health by maintaining mobility in the elbow and shoulder joints. It also maximizes muscle activation, which can lead to greater strength gains and hypertrophy over time. By incorporating full ROM into your bicep workouts, you're not just building bigger biceps but also ensuring they function optimally in daily activities.

FREE Protein Book & Cup: http://www.criticalbench.com/growth/proteingiveaway The upright row mainly targets the muscles in your shoulders and upper back. Deltoids (shoulders) – The front and middle parts of the shoulder get a lot of attention during this exercise. Trapezius (upper back) – The traps, especially the upper part near your neck, are heavily involved. Rhomboids – These muscles between your shoulder blades help with the movement, especially when you pull the weight up. It also works the biceps a bit, but the focus is on the shoulders and upper back.

One of the tell all signs that you're not doing this correctly is your body isn't solid and tight on the bench. When determining if you're doing this correctly we will see the back raise up, or your butt will come up off the bench, or you'll also get an over extension overhead which will mess with your form. The foundation and base of the movement is your feet, glutes and back. Lock in your glutes, ground your legs to the floor and you'll really begin to feel this exercise in the lats. You'll see if in muscle growth and in strength! FREE Protein Book & Cup: http://www.criticalbench.com/growth/proteingiveaway 🔵 Thanks for Watching Critical Bench Compound!

The short answer is, “No.” But there are some key differences between the two that might mean one is better for your personal situation. Static stretching involves holding a stretch for a prolonged period to improve flexibility and relaxation. In contrast, dynamic stretching uses active movements to replicate exercise activities. Despite misconceptions that static stretching is inferior to dynamic stretching, each has its own unique benefits. Put simply: Your choice should be based on specific goals and workout scenarios.

Functional fitness is the concept of training exercises that mimic movements the body will experience from day to day during activities of daily living. These exercises strengthen and prime these muscles creating a less likely chance of injury and add more athleticism into your life. Like being able to pick your kids up a little easier or dropping a few points off your golf game. Functional fitness will only benefit you.

Where you're locked into a position that you can't get out of. Often times this happens at the bottom of the bench press when the bar is pressed against your chest. One of the best ways to work through this sticking point, is to build up your triceps strength. The Triceps is going to be the muscle responsible for getting out of that deep bench press.

The Biceps are the biggest glamor muscle of the human anatomy. Every man has hit the gym once hoping to grow some massive guns to show off at the beach. The bicep is the flashiest, and THE single most glorified muscle. 99% of the time when someone goes to strike a bodybuilding pose, it’s the biceps. This muscle is so important to the ego that every gym has swarms of men spamming bicep curls around the clock. In some instances the biceps curl is the ONLY exercise people know. Ever feel like no matter how hard you lift, your arms just don’t show it? The truth is, you might be wasting your time. It’s not about lifting the heaviest weights or spending endless hours at the gym. 🔵Thanks for Watching Critical Bench!

Here are the basics to understand: Dynamic stretches are ideal for a warm-up because they help elevate heart rate, increase blood flow to the muscles, and improve mobility, ensuring the body is fully prepared for the workout ahead. After exercising, static stretches should be incorporated to gently cool down, allowing muscles to recover and relax. But what about specific fitness goals? DYNAMIC STRETCHING Before Cardio: Use dynamic stretches like hip circles or walking lunges to prepare your lower body for repetitive movements such as running or cycling. These stretches will increase blood flow and lubricate joints for sustained cardio sessions. Before Weightlifting: Incorporate dynamic stretches to engage the joints and muscle groups involved. For instance, shoulder circles or arm swings are excellent for prepping the shoulders for upper-body workouts, while dynamic squats or leg swings prepare the lower body for leg presses or squats. Before Sports: For sports requiring agility and explosive power, such as soccer, basketball, or tennis, dynamic stretching prepares the muscles for quick starts and stops, jumping, or sudden directional changes. STATIC STRETCHING Post-Exercise Relaxation: After an intense workout, static stretching is ideal for relieving tension, reducing muscle soreness, and improving blood flow. Hold stretches for at least 15-30 seconds to elongate muscle fibers gradually and encourage muscle relaxation. Yoga Routines: In yoga, static stretches like the forward fold or pigeon pose encourage long-term flexibility gains while calming the mind. Yoga sessions often use static holds to deeply stretch and relax various muscle groups. Long-Term Flexibility Goals: If flexibility is your primary objective, static stretching should be integrated consistently into your routine. Aim to hold stretches longer and gradually deepen them over time. Stretching regularly will lead to a noticeable improvement in range of motion, helping you achieve your flexibility goals while reducing the risk of muscle tightness and injury.
