I’ve always enjoyed the opportunities to train with @aew star @briancage whenever we can! Brian and I killed arms at @bigtexgym the last time he was in Austin.
We felt an incredible pump during these preacher curls as Brian typically trains high volume.
Preacher curls effectively isolate the biceps by minimizing the involvement of other muscle groups, leading to more focused bicep development.

REVERSE GRIP BENCH PRESS👇🏻
Not another “gimmick" exercise. These were first popularised by the Barbarian Brothers in the 80s, and powerlifter Anthony Clark set a world record bench of 800lbs with a reverse grip. I haven’t done these in about a year, but @briancage took the wheel on this workout and he’s been doing them lately so I jumped in.
Biomechanically speaking, these will often feel more comfortable on the shoulders as it creates a more externally rotated shoulder position. It also allows for easier access to shoulder extension, which is possibly why many people find it better for chest activation. Research also showed 30% more upper chest activation (PMID: 16095407) - though I don’t really believe in basing your entire training decisions around 1 study. It’s also worth noting that more activation does NOT mean more stimulation or mechanical tension, and there’s an error margin to be mindful of in research as well.
I personally get a TON more out of my chest on these. I used them as part of my rehab process after my pec tear and they were an important step to getting me back to regular bench pressing confidently.
I signed with @aew over 4 years ago in pursuit of the best matches and best wrestlers imaginable. Regardless of your opinion of me, I put myself in that category, and I've been waiting to show it. There's been moments of brilliance, but not until just recently has my abilities gained the appreciation and admiration that they should. All capped off with this recent loss to will ospreay. Another loss, yes, but in that loss, I've opened many eyes and feel this is the winds of change any BC truther and I have been waiting for. I've been ready, I stay ready, and I'm beyond past due for my time to shine. So keep em coming, gimmie more, I'm ready to show up, show out, and get allll of my shit in. If you don't know, you're about to.

Drop kicking people out of the air, spinning slams off the ropes, and clotheslining mf'ers up the turn buckeles. Can do a little bit of everything. Captain "Jacked" of all trades.
Sneak peak preview of this Saturdays @aew collision main event. This was from our match of the year performance at Warrior Wrestling. It got a lot of praise from every fan who witnessed it, Uncle Dave had plenty of good things to say about it, and even a world champion in another universe texted me putting it over. Even more so, in the moment, the words Ospreay said meant a lot. This Saturday, I'm going to prove everything Will, Dave, and everyone else said right. Who betta?!

Buckle up because Mr. GMSi is looking to do just that and take home some long overdue @aew gold. Who betta bruv?! I'd actually agree that you may be, but on collision, , you can't be. Not this time.
