- What's up muscle and strength
this is IFBB Pro, Santi Aragon
and some of you guys have already seen me
on the muscle and strength channel for some time.
There has been always very good videos,
but not always very good comments
and guess what,
I'm gonna get to the bottom
of all you trolling trolls out there
and I'm going to read some of your comments
and I'm gonna respond to them.
Sticks and stones may break my bones okay
but you're not gonna make me cry,
not today.
(upbeat music)
So I did an episode once
on muscle and strength that
the segment was what bodybuilders eat for breakfast.
I remember this very clearly.
So these comments are gonna be nice and fresh to read.
So here we go.
Man, why is every bodybuilder on this channel
who I've never heard of always have an amazing kitchen
and what do these guys do for a living?
Well, some bodybuilders don't do anything for a living,
other than training.
I on the other hand,
at the time I owned a electronic repair store,
I was sponsored by different supplement companies
and clothing companies et cetera.
So our way of making money
is gonna come from different forms,
whether it's training,
whether it's promotion.
So Miami's very expensive either way
so you have to be very careful
on how you spend your money.
That's basically the answer.
Anyone else realize that he doesn't have an actual stove?
So that stove that I had on my kitchen island,
the reason why I use that one is because
that was an induction stove
and an induction stove heats up the food much quicker
than a traditional glass top stove.
Not only that but I also like to watch television
while I was cooking
so positioning it right on the island was easy to watch TV
while I was cooking
and it makes clean up that much faster
but thank you for asking.
What does off season mean?
I mean come on,
if you're if you're watching a,
if you're watching a channel.
Oh, I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be very aggressive.
What does off season mean?
If you're on a fitness slash bodybuilding channel,
I would think that you would know the basic terminology.
So off season just means, in my opinion,
that you're not currently getting ready
for any show any photo shoots
anything big where you need to be
shredded and peeled in shape
and you're kinda relaxed on your training
and you're a little relaxed on the diet.
This video left a salty (laughs)
This video left a salty taste in my mouth.
Well you guys already know that I love adding salt,
a generous amount of salt to all my meals,
primarily because at the time and most of the time
I'm on a very low carb diet.
It's very difficult to get a pump in the gym
when you don't have enough water
and you don't have enough sodium in your diet.
So maybe I go overboard,
maybe I don't
but guess what my food tastes really damn awesome.
Clean fast food.
From what I recall we went to Taco Bell
and we went to the glorious golden arches of McDonald's,
my favorite.
What kind of shades are those bro,
they looking fresh.
That's a nice comment.
Most of the shades including these,
I get from, they're called Quay.
I should get an endorsement by them from this.
Quay Shades Australia
and I'm terrible at keeping my shades
from getting lost or broken.
So these are affordable,
very cool shades
and I have a whole collection of them
so check 'em out.
Why do bodybuilders like a Diet Coke?
I don't think just Diet Coke is just for bodybuilders
but if I was going to actually
have some certain amount of calories,
I would rather eat the calories than drink them
that's why I go with diet instead of a regular Coke.
74 grams of protein in one sitting,
can someone explain that hahaha,
I thought you could only digest 30 to 50 in one sitting.
I don't know,
who would honestly know how exact
on the grams of protein that you can actually digest?
I eat it,
I go to the bathroom
so you know what,
in my opinion I digested it.
What would you do without the science?
Like if you didn't know the numbers on everything,
is there any way to compete
without knowing the numbers like that?
I don't even get this comment.
So if I'm going to try and decipher
that whole entire comment
and I'm gonna assume that you mean,
how would you eat the food
not knowing if you knew the numbers or not.
So essentially you could just,
you just guess.
I mean if you're gonna be ordering basic food
like how we did,
chicken, rice, you can eyeball it.
I mean if you get good enough
at seeing what one cup of rice every single day looks like
you could kind of guesstimate,
what it looks like on a plate.
So that's how I would probably go with the numbers
if I didn't actually know the actual numbers.
Sounds like the lady at Taco Bell drive through
wanted to put Santi on her menu.
Yeah muscle and strength.
- Oh, okay cool,
- You're cute
- Oh, thank you.
You guys made my day.
Oh, I was on her fast food menu.
Chest workout, the squeeze method.
Hey it was a good video.
Yo Santi could you do a hair tutorial bro?
Well this is a very easy hairdo to do,
you just don't do anything for a very long time
and then you steal your girlfriend's rubber band
and then you use it
but at that time I was rocking the douchebag Fohawk okay.
It was very simple,
go to a very good barber,
asked for a Fohawk,
take a screenshot of what I look like
and then just show it to him
and he will do it.
Guaranteed it will get you into fights.
Can he beat Conor McGregor in a one on one fight?
I mean, like with our hands,
I would expect
that's what he makes millions and millions of dollars to do
but you know what I'm also smart,
I'm smart enough to not get in a fight
with somebody like Conor McGregor.
The giveaway,
if you want to stay alive is look at the ears,
if you see somebody at a bar with cauliflower ears,
you either don't talk to him,
stay away from him
or become his very good friend,
those are your only options.
You could crack a pencil in your pecs LMAO.
I don't know, maybe
and now we're moving into back day.
(upbeat music)
What's better,
a deadlift or a rack pull?
That's actually a very good question.
In my opinion for bodybuilding purposes,
a rack pull is gonna get you what you want okay.
It's gonna take away
the beginning part of what a deadlift would be
which would basically
activate your glutes, your hams, your quads,
pretty much everything pulling from that halfway point
it eliminates that
and now you're more concentrated
on the second part of the movement,
which you could concentrate on squeezing
your back, your scapulars, your traps, all of those things.
That's why I prefer it over a traditional deadlift.
Deadlift at last and behind the neck lat pull down?
This is dangerous for your delts,
but great video.
I think that if you exercise proper form
and you know what the movement is supposed to feel like
and you do a very controlled
it's not dangerous,
it's not dangerous at all.
I think it becomes dangerous
when you don't actually know what you're doing
and you're cheating each rep and it's too heavy.
Again I concentrate on very very strict form
and I make sure that I squeeze the parts
that I need to squeeze for that particular movement.
Alright guys then we've wrapped up the comments section
on our(laughs)
