I have been working out for almost 10 years . I was just pushing weight. After getting hooked on Dr Mike's videos, I gained quite a lot of muscle and feel much stronger. DR. Mike is the best thing that happened to the fitness world. Love from Sweden 🇸🇪

I used to have a chest like Michael Cera in Superbad. I got a bench press at the beginning of 2024 and have been consistent. I look so much better 9 months later, I just benched 215 for the first time in my life over the weekend.

[Andrew-beeh]

Watching this on the way home from my first ever 225 bench. Now to use these to grow my chest on the way to 315.

Deficit push-ups were a game changer for me, especially with my home workouts

[qtowncrazy]

Deficit pushups is 100% my favorite chest exercise I’ve incorporated from Dr Mike, it creates the best stretch and always get a nasty pump

[Beautiful-ModelBarbara-Hut-sj]

Why are you this funny!!!?? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 2:20

[warblackjack]

Chest flies is probably the only exercise I can recall where I can feel every fiber in my chest getting worked… Sounds like an exaggeration, but it is a night and day difference vs the most popular chest exercises like bench or push-ups

[BOHTOX]

Great video because it combines the current 'we rate every chest exercise there is from S tier to F tier' but it condenses it to the best 5 and gives a demo to the audience. Seeing this for every muscle group would be great.

[StunningModelAaliyahAustin-xe]

One of my favorite upper chest exercises is loading up one end of a bar, leaving the other end on the mat, then I kneel in front of the loaded end and pick it up, push it up over my head while the lower unweighted end stays on the ground. I push my arms together and keep them really close as I push up and over my head, and it really blasts my upper chest.

[johnkallday]

As nothing but a pathetic natty gym lifter.. I have to admit that through watching RP I have been able to push my growth to the next level. Not to mention, this style of training has been very kind to my terribly worn shoulders 👍 You're doing the work of the gods Dr. Mike. A true breath of fresh air for Youtube.

[drumrit]

came for the thumbnail. no seriously, i have to clean up now

I wonder if this was filmed after Mike’s contest prep where he chilled out on the PED’s, he looks really sharp and peppy and seems to really be enjoying himself. Happy for ya Mike!!
