Can overhead press help even out muscular imbalances in the delts/shoulder area? What exercises can help this? My training partner says my left elbow tends to flair out a bit when I bench and I think it might be due to these imbalances. Someone help a dude out

You emphasized a lot that the advice you're giving is to replace your main movement with a different movement. Would keeping the main movement and adding a different movement be ineffective?

Now this is interning to hear from a world class lifter.
I think I heard in an interview with Malanichev that He doesn't do any accessory movements because doing anything but the main movements doesn't help.

His heaviest deadlift goes up SO FAST. It's like he has another 100 lbs in the tank.

When Jeremy does focus on different training blocks with the new exercises, or even with the exercises specific to powerlifting, how does he periodize his training in general?

How is he deciding on what variation to replace the main movement with? Is it just weak point training?

is progression like 100 5×5-> 105 3×5-> 105 4×5 -> 105 5×5 good for hypertrophy and gain musle( i care more about musle not about strength) ? is it good idea or bad? ofc in DL squad Bench.

This is why I'm taking 5 weeks off low bar squats and focusing on front squats. I hope this shit works.

If you're working up to a bigger bench and you plateau, would you recommend moving away from dumbbell bench or incline as well? Or just normal benching? Or would it very person to person?

should do a bi-weekly series or something like that with couch with more about acute training variables and stuff like this. he's a very smart lifter and love these type of videos and how you highlight this type of knowledge to the lifting community.. this is what people need to hear as opposed to the typical same three lifts over and over can lead to resistance development then exhaustion, possible injury etc. love this vid man.

I'm curious what kid of training program Jeremy uses, as far as total volume, frequency and exercise selection.

I wish I could like this video 10x. The bread and butter of my back workout out is pull-ups and chin-ups. I definitely hit a plateau. Took a break from it and started doing rows movements. When went back to my pull-ups, I was stronger than ever. Don't be afraid to walk away from what you consider are your "bread and butter" movements and come back later. Great advice in this vid.

This is a similar principle that Dan John & Pavel Tsatsouline talk about with their "same but different"He also uses a lot of the "perfect practice" principles which Pavel and Dan John talk about a lot too. Did Jeremy study their work or he just figured that out on his own?

This has given me the confidence to step away from the staple and have a variable. Thank you. 👊🏽
