Whenever I do Barbell Shrugs the right side of my face gets handicapped whenever I pull it up…

Hey Scott. How do you get your hair like that? What kind of hair product do you use?

Haha that's the problem I keep having… hence why I'm youtube trying to find a way around it

Andrew Johnson December 21, 2012 - 9:25 pm

Compression shorts…

YOU DID NOT PAUSE AT THE TOP, THE FUCK BRO? WHERES THE PAUSE?

Pedro V March 28, 2013 - 3:35 am

Thanks I've been doing them wrong

Rosan Maharjan April 13, 2013 - 3:31 am

Thanks a bunch for the upload. Love Youtube for this sort of material.My relative was previously bullied. He stated he was planning to grow muscle and strength. I did not believe him. But then out of the blue he added 40lbs of absolute muscle. He used the Muscle Building Bible – Google it. Not a soul dares to bully the man anymore.

I actually signed up a few days ago. Not to mention the guys emails are interesting!!!

VK May 6, 2013 - 3:34 pm

yeees me too,

Supersonic Tartan Death Machine May 9, 2013 - 10:53 am

Go grab some dumb bells and get the f**k out if my way. Signed, Mister Squat

Dan Reilly May 20, 2013 - 2:53 am

I'll ride carefully today! May 30, 2013 - 5:30 pm

cut it off in the change room before u start. 🙂

kalpana yadav June 7, 2013 - 3:27 pm

I appreciate this sort of video clip. Youtube is great for this kind of info.

My best friend used to be bullied. He explained he was going to grow muscle and strength. I did not believe him. But then all of a sudden he gained 40 pounds of genuine muscle mass. He made use of the Muscle Building Bible (look in Google). He does not get bullied nowadays.

I personally registered a few days ago. Plus this guys emails are excellent!

NAGOKART June 17, 2013 - 10:52 pm

Wear compression shorts.

Alejandro Camacho June 29, 2013 - 6:46 pm

How do you do this so you don't hit your special place?

teriyakipuppy July 21, 2013 - 11:25 am

To keep your knees from locking so the strain doesn't go to your joint

teriyakipuppy July 21, 2013 - 11:29 am

oh and it also keeps you stable on the ground

Nicholas Burton April 3, 2014 - 5:09 pm

Gian Oyson April 16, 2014 - 1:48 pm

zebb rah July 5, 2014 - 7:05 pm

Nice man, was doing deadlifts right where you are standing. Decent gym.

ZigZag August 8, 2014 - 11:45 pm

Seriously this exercise should be called nutcrusher.

DONNIE GRANDE November 10, 2014 - 4:45 pm

EVERY TIME I DO BARBELL SHRUGS IT RUBS OFF MY DICK UP AND DOWN LOL

iperez7964 January 14, 2015 - 8:01 pm

I get a neck pain when I do these. I still do it but can anyone tell me why that is happening?

Chris sprinkle June 23, 2015 - 8:13 pm

I don't mind advice but if you are gonna give advice on a muscle at least have the muscle to back it up…..

Gustavo Montoya August 25, 2015 - 12:30 am

wtf! this is so gay! is he getting fit for a gay parade or something?

AJ December 4, 2015 - 4:39 am

Ditch the bar and go buy a trap bar. Trap bar is where it's at.

twilite295 February 13, 2016 - 7:43 am

Do I bring shoulder blades together on these?

Started a new routine a friend wrote up for me to try, still a little new to some exercises and their terminology. Needless to say I've watched a few of you're "how to" videos and they are very helpful, especially with a bad shoulder I'm glad you show proper form for lateral movements. Thanks!
