      I think he kind of touched on that but what I can say is keep going! After some weeks it gets better, after some months it will be gone. What he says about the volume is very true. Rather do more work outs with little volume. 3 exercises with 2-3 working sets each is enough!! Start slow but not in terms of weight but also volume. This is key to enjoy in the beginning and not be dead on the couch for weeks! :)

    What I learned is that if I manage to control my general stress,
    I manage to get more out of my training that involves specific stress.
    More performance, more hypertrophy, more strength, more force, more speed.
    But I didn't know any of that and was just ''pushing it hard as many times as I could'' in the end ''trying to run away'' from training and then starting all over.
    Good vid. 👍

    • @KenanTurkiye
      @KenanTurkiye Год назад

      Btw, another thing that I learned (which I do not think is solely applicable to my genetics/metabolism) is that if my general stress is skyroketing I require much much more calories, especially carbs, unlike specific stress which doesn't cause a recognizable such effect.

    • @KenanTurkiye
      @KenanTurkiye Год назад

      oohh another thing I learned (I get excited when I learn new stuff so pls bare with me lol )
      is if my general stress is out of control my NEAT just dies, whereas if specific stress, merely puts discomfort, say quad pain after quad involved training while walking, sitting etc.
      Some more NEAT is neat. :))

    • @EbonySaints
      @EbonySaints 4 месяца назад +2

      It's the training to failure every time for every exercise that's doing you in. Sure, you only do it two times a week, but that's two days where you completely wreck yourself for gains every single time.
      I'm assuming you're over this, but take an off or light week or two and come back. You're not going to lose all your progress in that time and having an easy workout keeps you fit without stressing yourself.
      I've done that before and it works wonders until you either plateau and spin your wheels or you push so hard that you injure yourself. 73% of Americans are lazy all the time. You can afford to be lazy some of the time too.

    Also my mother like O.M.G. wouldn't let me exercise cuz I am a girl and would bash me cuz I've been "gaining" weight....idk what she want
    I am 5'5 56 kgs which I think is pretty relevant but I promised myself to come down to 52 kgs, started exercising and on other hand my mother started bashing me out, she came and offered me tea in mid session of me working out lmao... genuinely sucks plus it broke my rhythm so yet here I am watching this video to stimulate my exercising pattern

And Im feeling so tired. Im not hitting the gym for any weight loss or body buildung goals, just to get my mental health right. And this is really bothering me as it does the opposite of what im trying to do.

  • @MrKashyaprahul
    @MrKashyaprahul 19 дней назад

    1. For normal people who are not training to be professional bodybuilders or athletes, it’s better to keep mixing ur workout routines targeting different muscles, rather than repeating the same workout again and again. Repetition increases endurance, mixing increases general fitness. This is why professional runners can’t lift a lot of weights, and bodybuilders can’t run 5km
    2. Weight lifting is just increasing the weight to a minimum of 6-7 reps. Beyond that it’s mostly a cardio exercise
