Drake Out Here Getting Brolic Pushing 295LBS 3X On The Smith Machine

[USSInsiders]

Don't need to use your wrists. You can rest it on your front deltoids. The bar ain't going nowhere.

The range of motion on a Smith Machine with front squats is such that it doesn't stress the joints as much, so I wouldn't take issue to it being used for that. Same deal with shrugs, calf raises and upright rows for shoulders. (I wouldn't do back rows with it because the range of motion would be restrictive.) But again, free weights > Smith every time because of stabilization.

Yeah I know, the delt jawn. I don't like using it period though. I feel awkward as fukk doing front squats without the clean grip. I'm in 100-percent free weight gang, I was moreso curious as to how some people lift like that. I guess it's a lot more stable with the smith machine cause that bar isn't going anywhere

Is this workout legit?

It's not really "workout" as much as it's a fitness concept that leads to muscle growth and strength. It's just progressive overload. It's just adding more weight to the bar over time. That's how you get stronger. Diet is still important though. You can't just stay 160 pounds forever and continue to progressive push shyt tons of weight, but there are some people out there who are very gifted and can do it... and drugs of course

Virtually any workout routine worth its salt uses progressive overload, though.

I feel ya... You must do the clean grip all the time..... I switch up just depending on how I'm feeling. When I'm on the smith machine I used the crossed arms technique..... and the smith machine allows me to secure the weight easier going this route, and I don't have to worry about my wrists bothering me halfway through the set.....

I feel ya on the wrist pain tho... They bother me whether its free weights or the smith machine on certain exercises..... I guess I just got some punk ass wrists.........

Yeah my man, clean grip gang. You try wrist wraps/pads or something. Not sure if that would help. I got wile homo wrists myself but I don't have any issues

True.

I suppose if someone had issues with keeping form on the exercises Vecey spoke on, the Smith machine would be cool to practice on. But once you for your form down and you have access to free weights, no need to fool with the Smith.

There's ABSOLUTELY ZERO reason a celebrity trainer should have someone benching 295 on a Smith Machine. None.

No. Only on his stomach. Smart lip is different from regular lipo. During smartlip, people are awake. The dr. makes small incisions where you want the fat gone, then sticks a small/skinny warm laser tube thing (idk what it's called) inside & move it around to get rid of the fat. There are lots of videos on youtube of it being performed.

He supposedly got it done around the time that he missed the Wireless performance.

Spoiler

Here's a pic of a male before and after they got smart lipo

There are more if you google. It looks weird because the muscles under the fat are not ususally developed enough to be seen through the skin yet and when you do see them (b/c they got the lipo) it looks strange. It will probably look more normal if he continues to work out.

why is that guy wearing a thong

I concur. I had a shytty gym that only had a smith and I used to use it for backsquats, but I refused to ever use it for anything other than as space to set-up a t-bar row now.

Don't even go to that gym anymore unless i'm not planning on squatting for whatever reason

 

[USSInsiders]

Good shyt. I'm planning on getting back in to gym come July once my summer classes end. Tryna do research on different types of workouts before then.

Good man. I'm doing a full body routine I sort of made up. Just about most basic 5x5 workouts will get you good results though. I'm just too lazy to go through all that at the moment. I just do my full body routine 2-3 with intermittent runs throughout the week.

At some creepy weirdo on the innanets reminding you of a purchase you made almost a year ago. Yeah try'em out man, maybe they'll help. I notice people use them more for pressing movements like OHP and bench, but maybe they will help.
