If you've gained weight during lockdown you are not alone. Between working from home and so many other activities being restricted or cancelled, the vast majority of people are expending far less energy than they did before.

    Man, such a underrated channel. You just straight-up drop gems 💎 I came here after watching a video that said bench is bad for you cause it messes up your shoulders its got millions of views and so many saying they dont do it now based off what the guy said. Sure, he made some points. But i had a suspension that comes down to how you're doing it, how much weight you're using, if youre warming up or not ,etc I watched your video " does benchpress mess up your shoulders" and you just knocked it outta the park. So many variables come into play I wish more ppl could understand what you were saying in the video instead of just solely listening to the celebs of the fitness industry

    Sorry but this is just BS. Muscular endurance is absolutely crucial for health and performance. Just ask any grappler when their grip gives out or they can't finish a guillotine choke due to lack of strength-endurance. There are sports that are basically strength-endurance sports (e.g. kettlebell sport) and sports that include elements of strength-endurance like CrossFit and Strongman (e.g. log press for reps). The least you could've done was include some info on how to train this quality, especially for those of us who already train maximal strength.

    • @trainforever1142
      @trainforever1142 Месяц назад

      It's a perspective, not an absolute. The idea is to challenge the classical rep range continuum, for which evidence is mixed at best. Recent article on the subject: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7927075/ Excerpt from conclusion section: "Evidence for a load-specific effect on local muscular endurance remains equivocal. Early work suggested a potential benefit of light load training on muscular endurance, particularly when testing on an absolute basis. That said, the evidence for such an effect is rather weak and seems more relevant to the lower body musculature. Alternatively, research investigating the effects of load on relative muscular endurance is conflicting and, for the most part, does not seem to support recommendations drawn from the repetition continuum." Have a great day and good luck with your training.

      Hi! That's a tricky question to answer, but I'm going to share some general info that I hope will be helpful to you. There's no exact weight that a person should be based on their age. The way that the relationship between body size, composition, and health is usually measured is a combination of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference and percent body fat. At 18, my focus would be on being physically active with activities I enjoy and eating nutritious foods that I enjoy, most of the time.

    Walking is so much better than running. I'm 59 and was 292 lbs in Sept 23. I have dropped 68lbs by walking everyday. If you twang a muscle running, your daily exercise is in jeopardy and your routine is interrupted. I walk about 8 kms a day for about an hour. Changed diet, lots of veggies and some protein, fewer carbs. One meal a day. Target is 190 lbs.

    What I dont understand is why a pushup is so much easier than bench pressing an equivalent weight. Its often said that you lift 60-70% of your body weight in a push-up. I'm 198 lbs and 6' 1". Flat benching 135 lbs is waaaay more difficult for me than a push-up.

    • @trainforever1142
      @trainforever1142 2 месяца назад

      Tough to say for sure but what comes up for me is the skill component of bench press. Your experience isn't unusual if someone has been doing pushups for a long time but is relatively new to bench press.

    • @meliodashadeyoshi2115
      @meliodashadeyoshi2115 22 дня назад

      I believe the that it's because of the balance in the bar your using different muscles in the shoulder vs when doing pushups.. the chest press machine is very similar to a push up . I can bench press 250 and I can chest press 350

    What’s the relationship between recovery and muscular endurance? Are there stretches that improve muscular endurance either directly or indirectly?

    • @trainforever1142
      @trainforever1142 3 месяца назад

      Great questions. The most important fitness quality for recovery is aerobic fitness. Recovery from exercise is largely driven through aerobic energy metabolism. It's one reason why people who are mainly strength or power athletes should also develop their aerobic fitness - to help them train as hard as they can in their desired activities. Would someone with well developed muscular endurance recover well? Probably. But the two aren't as directly linked. Stretching wouldn't have a meaningful effect on muscular endurance.

    I had a major back surgery because of an accident. I was active before but after the surgery i was literally turned down to 0. I could not even walk. I went to different doctors specialised in sports, back injuries and PT but none of the think they said is work to me. Here is what worked for me; 1-Bird and dogs(extremly good and injury free exercise, you may want to increase curl up time before moving this because you want to brace your core) 2-Side Planks(hard to perform efficiently you may think you do right but after building some core strength you recognise that you were doing it wrong) 3-Curl ups(extremly good also) 4- sitting on ass to grass squat positions And my favorite movement which made me do all of these without irritating anything is reverse back extension. That movement makes wonders. Lastly i would like to tell you about somethink really interesting about the effects of this workout. Before working on these exercises the place where surgery operated was felt empty when touched. It was like there is no nothing there only bone, no back muscle. After doing these i recognised that that emptiness is now filled with meat and that made me very happy.

    250-300 pound people can usually be good benchers, but not so good with pushups. The more weight a big guy can put on, the bigger his bench is, but all that weight hurts him in pushups. Skinny guys can be great at pushups and still not good benchers. It must be leverages.

    • @trainforever1142
      @trainforever1142 4 месяца назад

      Also needs to be considered that the larger people weigh more, and most of that weight is not in their chest and arms, so they are lifting more weight per pushup rep. It's objectively more work.

    For me, Goblet Squats make my Squat morr upright and "Squatty". It really is helpful in reinforcing positioning for someone who wants to do Olympic Weightlifting type Squats, or Front Squats with good form, especially for longer limb people. Also, for me, high rep Goblet Squat has a good conditioning effect, and secondary benefits for Quad/Abductor/Glute strength and hypertrophy. Right now I can do deep Goblet Squats with my 60lbs Dumbell for a fairly easy 20 reps, probably could do 30. Imagine the conditioning and work capacity benefits once I can do 40-50 reps with this weight. I'm not concerned about it not being optimal for strength or hypertrophy to do such high reps with it, I'm using it when I'm away from my city with no access to the gym, so it just needs to maintain my Leg strength, not build any. And of course to build conditioning. Truly great exercise for mobility, reinforcing upright Squat technique, Quad hypertrophy and total body conditioning.

    Burpees were originally an assessment of general fitness. However, they are also a great workout. Needs no equipment, needs very little space, no membership fees. Works major muscle groups. Also, the ability to get up from a prone position is a good indicator of physical fitness as we age past 50. Burpees help strengthen the muscles and joints involved. Burpees every day, superman planks every day, push ups to failure twice a week works for me.
