- 0:00Hello, team. How are you doing? I hope
- 0:02you are doing great. Welcome to a new
- 0:04video for the channel. This time, it's
- 0:05quite a different video. Eh, this whole
- 0:07thing of grabbing the camera and walking
- 0:09down the street is a little different
- 0:11from what we are used to, but hey, I
- 0:12wanted to record a different video for
- 0:14you; a video that, well, many of you
- 0:16also request, which is a more practical
- 0:18video, eh, a video of me training,
- 0:19showing you a little bit of my
- 0:21day-to-day, my training routine, and so
- 0:22on.
- 0:23I want to see a bit of the support for
- 0:25this video and this format, okay?
- 0:29And taking advantage of the fact that we
- 0:30are at Body Project, which is, for me,
- 0:32the best gym in the world, the best gym
- 0:34I've ever been to, and taking advantage
- 0:35of the fact that I live in Galicia and
- 0:37have the opportunity to train here every
- 0:39day, I want to show you a bit of the gym
- 0:40, a bit of my routine, and the people
- 0:42around.
- 0:43For those who don't know me, as always,
- 0:44let me introduce myself, okay? My name
- 0:46is Joan Macarmona, I am an expert coach
- 0:48in natural bodybuilding.
- 0:50I dedicate myself to helping all kinds
- 0:52of people reach their athletic goals
- 0:54without the need for good genetics.
- 0:56And today I'm going to record a video
- 0:58where I will show you in detail the best
- 1:00routine I have right now in my mesocycle
- 1:03, or at least the one I like the most,
- 1:05which is my "Density" day, the day I
- 1:07focus mainly on working on my weak
- 1:08points, okay? Which would be the entire
- 1:11posterior chain, okay? From the traps
- 1:13down to the calves. It's a very long
- 1:15session of over 3 hours. You're going to
- 1:18see how we are really hitting this area
- 1:20hard and how much it's improving
- 1:22immensely in this bulk phase.
- 1:24Those who follow me on Instagram know
- 1:25that I've been in a bulk phase for about
- 1:278 months, okay?
- 1:29I started at an average body weight of
- 1:31about 77 kg.
- 1:32Currently, I'm at about 83.2, okay?
- 1:35Therefore, there has been a weight gain
- 1:37of about 5 kg in about 8 months, which
- 1:39is very good, a very controlled gain,
- 1:41maintaining a very good body composition
- 1:43. I'll leave a photo around here so you
- 1:45can see my current physical state.
- 1:47So, not much more, eh, as you can see, I
- 1:49live just a few minutes 'walk from Body
- 1:51Project, okay?
- 1:52For me, this is a luxury, being able to
- 1:54live in Galicia first, eh, those of you
- 1:56from Galicia will understand. Living
- 1:59here is a real luxury. It's nice to live
- 2:02like in a past Spain, right? A Spain
- 2:04where everything was better.
- 2:06Truth is, it’s so peaceful here in
- 2:09nature.
- 2:10It’s, it’s fantastic. It’s such
- 2:12tranquility. Cortisol levels are low, at
- 2:14an all-time low, right? It’s wonderful
- 2:16to live here. Coming from a big city
- 2:19like Barcelona, moving from life there,
- 2:22with all the chaos.
- 2:25To live here in Galicia, peaceful with
- 2:27my partner, it’s a dream for me, and
- 2:29living just a few, just a few meters
- 2:31from the Body Project where I can walk
- 2:33calmly, it’s a real luxury.
- 2:36So anyway, you’re going to see a little
- 2:37bit about the gym and my routine, which
- 2:39I’ll warn you is very long, okay? So
- 2:41guys, I’ve got nothing left, just 3
- 2:43minutes to arrive, I’ll cut the clip and
- 2:45see you now at Body Pro.
- 2:47And here we are, ladies and gentlemen,
- 2:49at the temple. Let’s get after it.
- 2:57Hey, how’s it going?
- 2:59>> Hey, how’s it going? Everything good?
- 3:00Here we are, man.
- 3:07Very good, guys.
- 3:09We’re starting the routine on this ab
- 3:11machine, the Cybex VR3, okay?
- 3:14An ab machine that every client who
- 3:16comes to the Body Project to train with
- 3:18me really enjoys, and the next day they
- 3:20all report some soreness and an
- 3:21absolutely spectacular stimulus in their
- 3:23abs.
- 3:24All right? So, when it comes to working
- 3:27your abs, there are some important
- 3:28things to consider, okay?
- 3:31I always recommend working on a machine
- 3:33or doing an exercise, whether it’s with
- 3:35a pulley or a machine, okay?
- 3:37That first allows you to work with your
- 3:39hips restricted, that is, working with a
- 3:41point where the hips are fixed, okay?
- 3:43To avoid confusing spinal flexion and
- 3:44extension with hip flexion and extension
- 3:46, okay?
- 3:47And also a machine or a pulley that
- 3:50allows for great spinal flexion and
- 3:52extension, okay?
- 3:54This is going to be very important
- 3:55because there are machines, for example
- 3:57, some of the ones here that don’t allow
- 3:58for very good spinal flexion and
- 3:59extension, okay?
- 4:01And finally, a machine or a pulley that
- 4:03allows you to progress a lot in load,
- 4:05basically because the abdomen is a very
- 4:07strong muscle group, and we won’t build
- 4:09hypertrophy with isometric or indirect
- 4:11exercises.
- 4:13We need exercises that allow us a great
- 4:15capacity to accumulate load because it
- 4:17is a very, very strong group, both on
- 4:19the cable and on the machine, okay?
- 4:21Therefore, we must treat the abs the
- 4:23same way we treat our quads, our
- 4:25pectorals, and muscle groups we want to
- 4:27develop. Agreed? In this case, how does
- 4:29this machine work? Well, I love this
- 4:31machine because you can position
- 4:32yourself way back, okay? With a brutal
- 4:35spinal extension position, you fully
- 4:37extend your arms, okay? And from there,
- 4:40what you do is focus on flexing your
- 4:42spine.
- 4:46We squeeze at maximum contraction and
- 4:49stretch. Okay, that was the last warm-up
- 4:51set I did, and now let's hit the
- 4:53effective ones. Let's go for it.
- 5:13But I'm drowning in the dark.
- 5:35Very well, team. Now we move on to the
- 5:37first lat exercise of the session, okay
- 5:39? A spectacular tip so your lats
- 5:41literally mutate, okay? And this is
- 5:44something I had to get into my head for
- 5:45many years because the lat has always
- 5:47been a muscle group that was very hard
- 5:49for me to develop, okay?
- 5:50It is to prioritize them as main
- 5:52exercises within the back session, okay
- 5:55?
- 5:56Direct lat pulldowns with a very
- 5:58vertical trajectory, okay?
- 6:00Either bilaterally, as is the case here
- 6:03, or unilaterally, okay? In this case,
- 6:05what are we going to look for? Well,
- 6:06what we are going to look for is to work
- 6:08with a grip that is more or less
- 6:09biacromial width, maybe a little bit
- 6:11more, a tiny bit more would be ideal,
- 6:13okay? In the case of the Body Project,
- 6:15we have multiple grips to choose from,
- 6:17okay? But you have to choose the one
- 6:19that most resembles the one in your gym
- 6:21, and from there, what we have to do is
- 6:23always prioritize a very, very vertical
- 6:25trajectory, okay? We sit well into the
- 6:28seat, okay? And from there we are going
- 6:31to try to achieve maximum humerus
- 6:34flexion-extension, okay?
- 6:36Here, one of the mistakes that are
- 6:38usually made is the following. We lean
- 6:40back too far, okay? And we work here,
- 6:43okay? So here we are not going to
- 6:44achieve the angle we are looking for,
- 6:45okay? We must try to stay vertical,
- 6:47maximum humerus flexion-extension, and
- 6:50from there we pull with the elbows
- 6:52vertical toward the lats, keeping the
- 6:54spine and pelvis neutral.
- 6:56We squeeze at maximum contraction and go
- 6:59up, up, up, up, up, up, without, I
- 7:01insist, letting ourselves hang or
- 7:03without letting the shoulders drop like
- 7:05this, okay? No, keeping a fairly active
- 7:09posture, okay?
- 7:25like empty bottles
- 7:29rolling in the back of my head
- 7:35chasing down another promise
- 7:41till the promise ends up dead
- 7:48I drag my shadow through the door and
- 7:51say I'm fine and fade I keep my demons
- 7:54on a first name basis.
- 8:15Alright team, let's move on to the
- 8:16second exercise of the session for the
- 8:18lats, all right? In this case, a
- 8:20secondary exercise, okay?
- 8:22And we aren't going to work with such a
- 8:24vertical pull-down here; we’re still
- 8:25doing a pull-down, but it doesn't have
- 8:27such a vertical path, it has a bit more
- 8:29of a diagonal, a touch more horizontal
- 8:30path.
- 8:32It's not really a row, okay? Some might
- 8:34call it almost a high row, depending on
- 8:36how you do it, especially if you lean
- 8:37back too much, but if you do it right,
- 8:39if you position yourself vertically,
- 8:41it’s really a pull-down, okay?
- 8:43For me, this is one of the best pieces
- 8:45of equipment Body Project has for
- 8:46working the lats, okay?
- 8:48It’s a spectacular, hyper-robust machine
- 8:51with an adaptable resistance profile
- 8:53that feels extremely fluid, and it’s
- 8:55very enjoyable to work on this machine,
- 8:58really, agreed?
- 8:59Enjoyable in the good way, meaning it
- 9:00destroys your lats, so we understand
- 9:02each other, okay?
- 9:03It’s an Australian brand called Citadel
- 9:05that makes very few pieces, okay? There
- 9:08aren't many pieces from this brand, but
- 9:10the few that are here at Body Project—I
- 9:12think there are three, two up here and
- 9:14one below, okay? If I’m not mistaken,
- 9:16maybe there are a few more if I’m
- 9:18missing them, but anyway, there are few
- 9:20pieces, but they are all, well, they're
- 9:22truly insane. All right. So in this case
- 9:24, since the resistance profile is
- 9:25adaptable, okay? You see we have the
- 9:27three load options. In this case, I’m
- 9:30going to set it all to the top load,
- 9:32okay?
- 9:33As you see here, basically because we’ve
- 9:35already done three sets of the neutral
- 9:37pull-down, and therefore, the lat in its
- 9:39shortened position is, let's say, quite
- 9:41, quite fatigued; so it will be very
- 9:43good for us to put the load on the top
- 9:45pin so that, this way, the weight is
- 9:47heavier in the stretch and the movement
- 9:49gets easier as we drive the elbow toward
- 9:50the lat.
- 9:52Okay? We’re going to do three sets per
- 9:54arm here as well, and that will complete
- 9:56the specific lat portion of this density
- 9:59posterior chain session. Let's get after
- 10:01it.
- 10:20Me loving me.
- 10:32Well, team, we haven't gone very far,
- 10:34okay?
- 10:35We've returned to the pulley where we
- 10:36did the neutral pulldown with emphasis
- 10:38on the lat, because now we are going to
- 10:39do another neutral pulldown, but not
- 10:41with emphasis on the lat, but rather
- 10:42with emphasis on the scapular
- 10:43musculature, on the upper back.
- 10:46We have already finished the lat part.
- 10:48Truth is, my lats are on fire, and now
- 10:50we are going to hit both a pulldown and
- 10:52a row on the Strive machine that you
- 10:54will see next for the upper back.
- 10:56Six sets at full throttle, to the death
- 10:58, taking no prisoners, okay? In this
- 10:59pulldown you will see that the emphasis
- 11:01is completely different, alright?
- 11:03We aren't going to look for that work in
- 11:05the lat, but rather here we are going to
- 11:07look for a slight extension of the hip
- 11:08and an active protraction and retraction
- 11:10of the scapulae combined with a more
- 11:12marked posture in spinal extension and
- 11:14pelvic anteversion.
- 11:16Agreed?
- 11:29in
- 11:33staring the cracks my bear
- 11:41every bad
- 11:45every prom
- 11:53Guys, there is no drug in this world
- 11:55that can bring you the satisfaction, the
- 11:58pleasure that comes from truly giving
- 12:00100%effort to a goal in your life, but
- 12:02100%for real.
- 12:04There is no drug, no pleasure that will
- 12:07bring you the satisfaction that you feel
- 12:10from improving daily in your passion, in
- 12:12a goal, whether it be physical, personal
- 12:15, professional, or sentimental.
- 12:18And progress is a drug, it's an
- 12:19addiction for which you don't have to
- 12:20lose your health, you don't have to
- 12:21inject it, you don't have to eat it, you
- 12:23don't have to drink it, you don't have
- 12:24to smoke it, you just have to sweat it
- 12:26out.
- 12:32But I your
- 12:40let it all
- 12:46till the silence starts to crack.
- 13:02Well, guys, we’ve reached the last back
- 13:04exercise of the session, okay?
- 13:06In this case, this Strive machine, this
- 13:08Strive low row with a lot of emphasis on
- 13:11the upper back, but fortunately with an
- 13:13adjustable resistance profile.
- 13:16All Strives tend to have that feature
- 13:17where the resistance profile can be
- 13:19adjusted just as we’ve seen in the
- 13:21previous one, okay?
- 13:22Therefore, since we've already come from
- 13:24the pulldown and have squeezed that
- 13:26shortened range a lot and are therefore
- 13:28quite fatigued, we can put all the
- 13:29weight here into the stretch and really
- 13:31fight through the repetitions for
- 13:33absolutely spectacular sensations
- 13:34throughout the whole area, especially
- 13:36the neck trapezius.
- 13:38Agreed? We'll do three sets, okay? And
- 13:40now we've reached the halfway point of
- 13:42the session. We're missing the other
- 13:44half, which we'll do downstairs, so
- 13:46let's get to it. All right, team, we're
- 13:48here and ready in the downstairs area,
- 13:50in the leg zone. My favorite area,
- 13:52honestly.
- 13:53I mean, this is an amusement park for
- 13:54anyone who likes leg training.
- 13:57And well, we're going to start the leg
- 13:58session, or the leg part, I should say,
- 14:00although they're like two separate
- 14:02sessions. I already told you that
- 14:03today's training volume was quite dense
- 14:05, quite long, okay? We've been at it for
- 14:08about an hour and a half so far. Alright
- 14:10, guys. And here I'd like to give a
- 14:12pro-tip for all those people who say
- 14:13your calves won't grow.
- 14:15And that is, oh, surprise, for your
- 14:16calves to grow you have to train them,
- 14:18ladies and gentlemen, because often we
- 14:20complain that our calves don't grow,
- 14:22that the calf is a meme.
- 14:24Let's see, the calf doesn't grow because
- 14:26you don't give it the same priority you
- 14:27give your chest or your arms, simple as
- 14:28that.
- 14:30I say this because it happened to me.
- 14:32I mean, I would just do three sets on
- 14:33leg day and expect them to grow, and it
- 14:35wasn't until I gave them a little more
- 14:37priority, until I worked them with
- 14:39frequency two, and worked them both with
- 14:41the knee extended and with the knee
- 14:43flexed while seated.
- 14:44Agreed? It wasn't until then that I
- 14:46noticed a significant difference in calf
- 14:48growth. I went from doing three sets a
- 14:50week to doing eight, and believe me,
- 14:52that's when they actually grow, okay?
- 14:54The thing is, the calf is no different
- 14:55from the pectoral. You have to give it a
- 14:56minimum amount of work if we want it to
- 14:58grow, okay?
- 15:01in the leg curl 3
- 15:19Team, we're at the lying leg curl. Once
- 15:21we've done the three calf sets, we're
- 15:23going to hit three sets for the
- 15:25hamstrings, in this case, the lying leg
- 15:27curl, okay? Which I include in this
- 15:28session.
- 15:30I put lying leg curl in the density
- 15:31session and I put unilateral standing
- 15:33leg curl and seated leg curl.
- 15:36I put that in the leg session, okay?
- 15:38Which I'll also show you if I see that
- 15:40this video gets enough support and you
- 15:42like this more practical, laid-back gym
- 15:44format. You and I here, chatting a bit
- 15:46about the routine, discussing different
- 15:48exercises, tips, and well, pretty much
- 15:50all the knowledge we show on the channel
- 15:51, putting it into practice so you can
- 15:53see how it's actually applied, which at
- 15:55the end of the day is the most important
- 15:57thing, okay?
- 15:58So, here, as I said, we're going to do
- 16:00those three sets.
- 16:02The most important thing in this
- 16:03exercise is maintaining a good pelvic
- 16:05position, okay? That pelvis in an
- 16:07anterior tilt position. Why? Because we
- 16:11don't want to force that position during
- 16:12the concentric phase, okay? Therefore,
- 16:14we will maintain it actively throughout
- 16:16the entire range of motion to truly
- 16:18isolate the hamstrings. We're going to
- 16:20push our thighs against the bench, okay
- 16:22?
- 16:22And we're going to try to maintain a
- 16:24very good joint alignment between the
- 16:26ankle, knee, and hip. Agreed?
- 16:29To maintain all this and ensure the
- 16:30hamstring gets a very good stimulus, we
- 16:32need to apply quite controlled
- 16:33concentrics, okay?
- 16:35No explosiveness, no kicking, no jerking
- 16:38, okay?
- 16:39Very controlled concentrics, maximum
- 16:41hamstring isolation, and above all,
- 16:42reaching the point of maximum
- 16:44contraction with enough control to hold
- 16:45that pause, that isometry, and squeeze
- 16:47the most out of that stimulus.
- 16:49Agreed?
- 16:53and
- 16:55just to the drink the
- 17:16By the way, guys, I haven't mentioned it
- 17:18throughout the video, but as you can see
- 17:20, I'm wearing this Teveo set. The truth
- 17:22is, the clothes are absolutely amazing.
- 17:23You already know I have the pleasure of
- 17:25collaborating with them. They are
- 17:26official sponsors of this channel. And I
- 17:28want to announce that starting this
- 17:31November 8th, the Teveo Black Weekend
- 17:33begins with discounts of up to 70%using
- 17:35the code Yanma on their entire website.
- 17:38So take advantage of it because it
- 17:39really matters how you dress, how you
- 17:41perceive yourself in the gym, and Teveo
- 17:43is undoubtedly the brand you need to
- 17:45boost your aesthetic level in every
- 17:46sense. Big hug, and let's continue with
- 17:48the video. Alright guys, regarding the
- 17:50deadlift, it is very important to
- 17:52understand that even though we are
- 17:54bodybuilders and our goal is aesthetics
- 17:56in the gym, that doesn't mean there
- 17:58isn't room in our routine for truly
- 18:00demanding exercises like a deadlift,
- 18:02okay?
- 18:02The thing is, we are going to focus it
- 18:04on aesthetics, on hypertrophy. Meaning,
- 18:06my goal is not going to be moving the
- 18:08maximum weight possible. I, in fact, am
- 18:10only using 150 kg here. It's a very low
- 18:12load for a deadlift, okay?
- 18:14But our goal will be to truly stimulate
- 18:16and isolate those glutes and hamstrings
- 18:18, and this is a good stimulus, okay? And
- 18:21to make sure deadlift work doesn't
- 18:23fatigue me for the rest of the session,
- 18:25especially for my back and posterior
- 18:27chain. Therefore, it will be very
- 18:29important to choose the right deadlift
- 18:31variant; in this case, a Romanian
- 18:33deadlift that allows us to minimize knee
- 18:36joint involvement and work with a very,
- 18:38very high level of control and technical
- 18:40standards.
- 18:42Also, the sequencing of the exercise
- 18:44within our back routine will gain
- 18:46particular importance, okay?
- 18:48We aren't going to place the deadlift at
- 18:50the beginning of the session if our goal
- 18:52is truly hypertrophy.
- 18:54What we are going to do is place the
- 18:56deadlift more towards the end, to work
- 18:58with an already stimulated back, even
- 18:59working with some pre-exhaustion of the
- 19:01hamstrings and glutes, and in this way,
- 19:03force ourselves to work technically,
- 19:05with less load and well isolated for the
- 19:07hamstrings and glutes.
- 19:09Therefore, you can include deadlifts,
- 19:11yes, but leave your ego at home.
- 19:14Uh, let's go, hey.
- 19:16Let's go.
- 19:17Doesn't weigh much, eh. Let's go.
- 19:20And steady. Come on.
- 19:26Yup. Steady.
- 19:29Yup. Steady.
- 19:34Eh, steady.
- 19:38Hey,
- 19:43hey.
- 19:49Oh, no.
- 19:58Yes.
- 20:10Will you
- 20:13understand?
- 20:38Guys, an unpopular opinion is coming,
- 20:40and I want the real Jimbros to confirm
- 20:42this, that is, people who train
- 20:43intensely to death.
- 20:46quad extensions, well performed, maximum
- 20:49intensity, maximum focus, maximum
- 20:52concentration, maximum range of motion.
- 20:57If you take them seriously, for real,
- 21:00they are just as demanding as a damn
- 21:02squat or a deadlift.
- 21:06I mean, people saying extensions are an
- 21:07exercise for the weak, it's nothing,
- 21:09it's an exercise that's worth nothing.
- 21:12Hm. Get on the extensions with me.
- 21:15Then you can tell me if it's an exercise
- 21:17for the weak or if it's not a demanding
- 21:19exercise. Very good, team. We reached
- 21:21the end of the session. We finally
- 21:23finish with Bulgarian split squats, okay
- 21:25? Two sets per leg.
- 21:27And here the goal will be to try to give
- 21:30a hybrid approach to the glutes and
- 21:32quads, okay?
- 21:34For that, we will try not to go down too
- 21:37vertically, but rather go down with some
- 21:39hip flexion, okay?
- 21:41not seeking maximum knee flexion, but
- 21:43likewise we are also looking for some
- 21:46forward displacement of the knee, okay?
- 21:49We don't want the tibia to be straight.
- 21:50This way we get a bit of a hybrid
- 21:52between prioritizing the quad and
- 21:55prioritizing the glute, okay? In this
- 21:57case, I work with a Smith machine
- 21:59because I can already work with a
- 22:00certain load on this exercise. So anyway
- 22:02, I'll leave you with the sets, okay?
- 22:04And I'll say goodbye now, all right?
- 22:05Because it's already gotten dark on me,
- 22:07I mean, I've been here for almost 4
- 22:08hours. So guys, I hope you really liked
- 22:11the video, okay? Especially if you liked
- 22:13this format that is a bit more practical

- 22:18video really has support, I will do more
- 22:20of this style, okay? So anyway, guys, I
