[00:00:01]Welcome in, guys.

[00:00:03]I'm going to explain to you well why flexing benefits is important.

[00:00:11]So, there's multiple reasons why.

[00:00:13]There's only a couple of reasons why I do it.

[00:00:16]But, it's definitely not for a vanity show.

[00:00:18]>> [gasps] >> For me, I get extra muscle fiber twitching.

[00:00:26]So, you know, getting them muscles to twitch on their own, they'll just do it even when you don't even realize you're doing it.

[00:00:35]I get to activate my muscles to their full peak, allowing me to have a full activation before training. So, just before I train, I like to do about 4-5 minutes of this just to really get them muscles activated and primed.

[00:01:06]>> [sighs] >> Now, muscle memory increases. So, if you stop training and you come back to it, it's going to be easier to get the growth back, to get the muscle back.

[00:01:22]Now, vascularity, another reason why I do it.

[00:01:28]The vascularity, the veins will increase by 10-fold.

[00:01:34]Every time you flex your muscles, you put them at full capacity. You know, you're using everything to squeeze that muscle.

[00:01:44]And that's why the most muscular pose is so important. This This pose just activates chest, arms, and all your upper traps.

[00:01:52]>> [snorts] >> It's the OP of uh It's the OP, the goat of flexing.

[00:02:00]>> [sighs and snorts] [sighs] >> Arms are pretty easy. I just kind of tense them and tense them, tense them, and tense them, tense them, and tense them.

[00:02:19]All right.

[00:02:20]>> [sighs] >> With side bends, instead of doing that, I twist them out.

[00:02:27]What I'll do, instead of doing that every time, I'll just drop to the side.

[00:02:33]Just really got a good squeeze for that side, you know.

[00:02:37]>> [sighs and gasps] >> God damn.

[00:02:55]>> [sighs] >> I'm going to put on some timber.

[00:03:00]God damn.

[00:03:07]>> [sighs] >> God damn.

[00:03:19]Lats spread is really important when you're flexing.

[00:03:23]As I fall back to my weight, >> [sighs and gasps] >> I side stretch my lats well.

[00:03:40]It's kind of doing a lats spread from the side to bring it out. I love that one. It really gives you a good back stretch.

[00:03:51]Absolutely brilliant.

[00:03:52]>> I'm just going to be burning out.

[00:04:07]All right, guys. You can add flexing into your routine.

[00:04:11]Change your gains. It's worth it.
