how diff are the incline bench rear delt flies compared to using the butterfly machine? i find that sometimes my triceps get in the mix when using the machine. think i'll try them tomorrow for my shoulders/triceps routine
never done them in the machine (my gym doesnt have one)
what i do is instead of keeping my arms straight, i bend at the elbow and keep my forearms hanging straight down. so the only muscle doing anything is the rear delt. as in the first minute or 2 of this video
and here's a pretty hilarious video with something you should be aware of, just in case you're in the gym during rush hour times or just have the typical ego lifter somewhere in the gym

Wasn't going to take the video serious at first but gave it a chance.
Good topic - there's always going to be idiots that toss their dumbbells, oblivious of other people around them working out. (Factor in New Year's folks, there might be new guys unsure and toss them like that - so good thing to be aware of)
A foot fracture is not something to laugh about, factor in waiting time for surgery and crutches, you are looking at a couple of months off the foot.
Man... workouts just not working for me today.. I think I'm the type of person that needs to workout consistently to be able to maintain performance.... 5 days break and I dropped from 5 reps x 4 sets to only 1 set on 225lb bench press...
There are no principles, there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances. The superior espouses events and circumstances in order to guide them.

yeah and i hate people that leave the god damn weights all over the floor, like bar on the ground at power rack when i come to the gym, dumbbells beside it.. 30 seconds unloading the barbell or putting away the dumbbells isn't going to kill you is it..
What are a couple new exercises you brahs have added recently that you're mclovin?
For me i've made quite a few changes and additions lately. some of my favorite additions are:
Shoulders: arnold presses for higher reps. build way more pump than regular db presses
Shoulders: incline bench rear delt flys. focussing on only using rear delt. I dont think Ive ever hit that muscle specifically before.
Back: smith machine barbell rows. can focus specifically on the squeeze at the top
Back: close neutral grip pull downs. focus on the stretch at the top and focus on pulling your elbows down to your sides, not your hands to your chest
Legs: leg extensions after squats to blow my legs out. real real good for bottom of the quads. squeeze at the top of your last reps for bonus burn
For me it's all about military press lately. Fits nicely into the 'reverse pyramid' method I started using. Start with 100 lbs, then 90, 80, 70. Get SUCH a fucking pump after that
My AFC gave me an ABS CEL code of LOL while at WOT!

yeah been doing reverse grip lat pulldowns the last few back days ive had. amazing exercise. feel it much more in my forearms, biceps and lats then the regular wide overhand grip.
Ugliness and fatness are genetic disorders, much like baldness or necrophilia, and it's only your fault if you don't hate yourself enough to do something about it.
