Most lifters in the gym are looking to get jacked around a busy schedule. Other obligations like school, work, family, relationships and other hobbies take up most of our time. So with the bit of time we do have to train, we want to choose the best movements to maximize our gains. This means using the best exercises and performing them with solid form to squeeze the juice out of every rep. Part of performing the best exercises is not wasting time doing exercises that aren't effective. Now, when we say waste of time, we don't mean these exercises have zero benefit. On the contrary, all physical activity, including resistance training of any form, can be beneficial. What we mean in this context is exercises that aren't as good as the alternatives. This video will discuss five movements that are a waste of time, why they are a waste of time, and better alternatives you should program into your workouts

Tricep kick backs done properly, with your elbow past the midpoint of your body nearly matches the muscles strength curve and works the muscle in full contraction. It also works the 2nd function of the long head, pulling humerus past midpoint. The cable tricep exercise as shown is the opposite of the strength curve and is far worse exercise, nearly useless. The weight will be heaviest in full stretched (weakest) but goes to nearly zero in full contracted (strongest) position since they put the cable even with the shoulder, thus the resistance is going back when it should be pushing DOWN. as in the direction of gravity, like the kickback does. Dumb

somehow in the very beginning of my training days I kind of hate to do dumbbell kick back exercise. In my initial days when I was asked to do it, I literally did not want to do it, thinking i don-t get the feel with it, and to me no feel means no gain also. I never performed this exercise in last 14 years. and also in last few years I realized that doing it with cable giving me good pump and control. -
And all these exp. I had by myself no coaching nothing. I feel pleased sometimes that I got some good understanding with the training without and formal guidance.

I'm calling BULLSCHITT ON YOUR CLAIM THAT SMITH MACHINE SQUATS ARE A -WASTE OF TIME- WHEN IN ACTUALITY, SMITH MACHINE SQUATS ARE EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE.
AND 1000X's SAFER.
THE IDEAL OF -FREE WEIGHT BARBELL SQUATS ARE THE ONLY -GOOD- WAY TO WORK LEGS IS JUST GYM'BRO BS AND ONLY SOMETHING THAT ONLY EGO LIFTING DING DONGS BELIEVE.

Listen, if you want to do some pretty heavy squats and you have no spotter, use the smith machine. You don't need an injury like a strained back muscle or worse. With the correct technique, moderate weight, and for using all different muscles for balance, I'm a firm believer in a regular squat.

In this video he said these exercise give results but we can do alternative exercise to stop overdoing same part and 1-2 exercise was useless.
So stop complaining
I know front raises and tricep kickback specially is really effective

reply

Heard these kind of people for years they know everything that's good for them keep your nose out of other people's business it's none of yours you do what you want let other people do what they want many experts say you're wrong got it

Trying to connect peoples lifestyle/posture with developed front dealts as a negative is completely unfounded and not true and quite frankly just lazy lol again other than that good stuff
reply

i cant do barbell back squats because i do not have the shoulder mobility to hold the weight behind my back like that, so i tend to do smith or goblet squats. what should i do about this?
reply

Yeah your front dealt analysis wasn-t good lol it-s a whole third of your dealt and you can really see a difference when you actually isolate them. Other than that whifff good video tho
reply

Wow. How could you put the triceps kickback as a waste of time when it builds the triceps more than the close-grip bench press? Also, front raises are awesome.
