The Most Underrated Exercise To Get Yoked: Hits The Traps, Triceps, Lats, Glutes

In this video we're looking at proper technique on one of the most underrated exercises for developing the "yoke". We will take a close look at technique, biomechanics and fixing form mistakes on one of the most underrated movements for hitting the glutes, hamstrings, mid back, traps, lats and even the long head of the triceps.

Yoked > jacked??? Make sure you check out these two videos for more on the "yoke muscles":
Hope everyone has an awesome day! Peace!

[DrSwole]

Jeff is THE reason I spent a macrocycle training neck. Neck is probably the one muscle group that people know the least about training. Thanks for spreading awareness Jeff!!

[calebrepp]

Jeff you should make a “deload science explained” video

[Psilomyde]

Bro Jeff may do all of the exercises wrong but he’s still just as big as you Jeff. Something doesn’t add up.

These have helped my deadlift a lot, highly recomended. Load the bar up gradually - don't be affraid to go heavy sustaining good form.
DO NOT HYPEREXTEND - EVER!

[OfficialRareSkillz]

I love beginner Jeff can we get a Jeff off between all the Jeff's

[davidscott]

I’ve been doing this movement for awhile. In my opinion, it’s one of the best Squat and deadlift accessories. 👍🏻

I can’t believe content like this is free

Jeff: Did you like this video before watching?
Me: 4:52

I saw a guy doing this yesterday...he must have watched this video. To me it looked like an injury waiting to happen, but watching you do it, it makes want to try it. Perception is everything.

"I'd be remiss to not mention the neck"

I like that word, "remiss". :)

You are both articulate and informative. Love your content!

[asdfasdfwae]

People go to athleanx for jesse .

and we come here for Bro jeff

[AdamMerry]

Your content just rolls OUT. Consistently on point, one of the reasons I managed to click with YouTube fitness. Thanks for everything

[andyward]

Wow I feel like I found this video at just the right time. I’m not a serious lifter by any means. I have a series of injuries to my hamstring, knee and lower back that I think were all related. I use the 45 degree bench regularly. It helps my back pain a lot and has seemed to help strengthen my hamstrings a bit, but I’ve been hyper extending at the top just like you said beginners tend to do. I probably can’t use much weight but I think this exercise is going to help me a lot. It seems to target a bunch of areas I’m weak in. Thanks for posting this.

[dubraefox]

First time watching... Simple, thorough, expanitory and to the point. Love your videos!!!

[Lyosha.]

'newbie Jeff' looks disturbingly similar to Ed Sheeran 😅😅

[SteBradburyDesign]

Love your technique tuesday videos. Ive been hitting the gym hard now for about a year and pretty much everything I've learnt is from you or AthleanX. Baffles me why people pay so much for a personal trainer when you could just research and teach yourself. I would however rather have a pencil neck that use that neck contraption you got 😂I'd feel like im about to partake in a BDSM video haha!

[marcgomes]

Your voice is so calming. Love the way you deliver the info.

[aronmichael]

I've been doing those for years. Thanks for the science behind it
