4.) Lat work 14:55
5.) Shoulder work 18:45

Pectoral muscles (colloquially referred to as "pecs") are the muscles that connect the front of the human chest with the bones of the upper arm and shoulder.

Deep muscles of the chest, including pectoralis minor, serratus anterior, and subclavius (Gray 1918)
Pectoralis major is a thick, fan-shaped muscle, which makes up the bulk of the chest muscle. It lies under the breast. It serves to flex, extend, and rotate the humerus, the long bone of the upper arm.

Pectoralis minor is a thin, triangular muscle located beneath the pectoralis major. It attaches to the ribs, and serves to stabilize the scapula, the large bone of the shoulder.

The pectoral fascia is a thin layer of tissue over the pectoralis major, extending toward the latissimus dorsi muscle on the back.

Along with the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor, the subclavius muscle forms the axilla or armpit. The subclavius moves the shoulder downward and forward.

Serratus anterior is another muscle on the front of the chest. It moves the scapula forward around the torso, as when throwing a punch.

Between the ribs are various groups of intercostal muscles, which help with breathing.

John is a legend. Listen to him for sure. I hit a plateau of 370-375 lbs on the bench. I read where a guy stopped using the bench bar for 4 months and went totally to dumbbells. I did that, only I did it for 6-7 weeks. Back then I would do Flat bench, Incline and Decline twice a week. Tuesday and Friday. I stopped using the bench bar and switched to only using Dumbbells. My flat bench went from 375 lbs up to 425 lbs using a bench bar. If you hit a wall even using the techniques they are talking about in this video, then try using just dumbbells. It worked for me.

I need you. I’m 62. I just this week hit my lifetime best bench of 225 for 3. I wobbled but I did it. And I had two young guys over me and they were impressed. But I didn’t do it to impress them. I did it for me! I want to go a little higher OVER TIME. This video will help me. Thank you. Wish I could train under you.

It should be mandated that every guest on the channel says "alright hi everybody" now 😂

If you ever take advice from a video on YouTube, let this one be it. My one-rep max was 140kg for over 6 months and, after a short christmas break, it went down to 135kg. Then I watched this video and started doing those exercises plus a couple from Westside Barbell that I was already doing. I lifted 150kg today after only 7 weeks of following this programme! The old man truly knows his stuff, thank you so much for making a video with him!!

Meadows is so wholesome he censors the cursing. *lol* I also love that he's so gracious that he steps back and allows his guest to speak uninterrupted, and without injected himself into everything.

Pull ups and super sets of 15-20 wide and narrow push ups in between chest exercises has helped me. Just got a PR on both flat and incline bench as a result.

The "triceps hit the wall" thing is so real. My triceps sets often go 15 reps, 9 reps, 4 reps. Same with chest. But rear delts I can hammer 20 reps for days. How come this is so different for muscle groups?

Dave is spot on with the shoulder workout! I removed shoulder presses and increased rear, side and front movements with light weight and my bench increased and had less pain in shoulder

35 months after a devastating cancer I set the Uspa Texas and national 65-69 181lb record at 303.14. Just doing the same old my way...nothing out of the ordinary training by me. Lost the national due to injuries and flu. I just realized I need a trainer going forward. There is so much more to this than I ever realized I feel very ignorant now so thank you gentlemen for enlightening me!!! I'm happily sub'd.
