In the fall of my freshman year of high school, I dislocated my right kneecap. I learned that I am hypermobile and that my ligaments are loose and that my muscles hold me together. So loose in fact, that I cannot get a full body readjustment at the chiropractor. It took over a year of physical therapy, but now in the spring of my sophomore year of high school, I can run, jump, and do everything I could do before the accident. I'm taking a strength and conditioning class and I feel my body is stronger than ever before. I also have to stretch often and can't stay still for too long because my limbs will seize up, and my joints will make a sharp crack sound (which can be painful at times). The stretching is a great warm up, and it helps me relax.

I just love how this video explains everything about growing muscles through resistance training without losing muscle mass in just 4 minutes. Our fitness coaches take 2 hours to explain the same.
When I started working out, my two main mistakes were lack of sleep and not eating enough (not being in a caloric surplus). I always thought I was eating enough and was disappointed because my weight stagnated. Then I got my first diet plan created (I think it was from nextleveldiet iirc). I realised that my previous food intake was way below my needs, although I thought I'm good. At the beginning it was hard to eat 3500 kcal in a day, but I got used to it. I started noticing real gains and it felt amazing. I wish I'd understood the importance of diet earlier.
I had the same problem when i was in my early twenties. I would always workout plenty during the week but i would just stay lean and not bulk up. Finally i just did an experiment and started eating like crazy. Two breakfasts. Lunch. Afternoon snack. Dinner. Wake up at 2 am and eat greek yogurt with granola and then pass back out. Needless to say in one year i gained about 35 to 40 pounds. I went from 140 to 180. And being only 5’ 7” with small bones, I achieved a pretty great all natural physique. And now the gym is all about maintaining that muscle and for mental health.
No it isn't because omits a lot of the sound information it presented during the video. Healthy challenge and a proper amount of stress, as long as you consider TWO other ginormous factors, 1. Enough FUEL (proper nutrition) 2. Enough REST (Sleeping 8 hours without a break) People love to focus on the NO PAIN NO GAIN... Pain is easy, but without the other two it is pointless. So if your BOSS give you that line: "Meaningful growth requires challenge and stress.” Tell him... As long as I don't get overworked and underpaid.
I really liked this video about how our muscles grow and what makes them. A few years ago I used to exercise a lot, and see no much change in my muscles mass and strength. However, I started searching up the internet for the reason, and I found reasons, which were also mentioned in this video, that I also have to eat food containing protein, which will allow my muscles to become stronger and bigger. Also, I didn't sleep enough to rest my muscles, which also resulted in not making them grow. In my opinion, if anyone wants to start gaining muscles and become stronger, they have to sleep well, eat well, and finally, workout constantly. To be more specific, not to skip any training day so the muscles will learn the pattern and continue growing and becoming stronger.
But there is a twist. Like any Sophism they will hand you all 100% accurate data and information but at the end just as they are concluding with a final message they start omitting a few elements and them conclude something FALSE that is the opposite or at least a very incomplete version of what they were saying.

PAIN is useless if you don't have proper nutrition (intake of quality good stuff) and enough quality REST. We focus on the PAIN aspect and we forget we need another TWO elements for that equation to work.

+Aryan Zagros Salam I saw your name and I am wondering if you are Iranian? I am Iranian too, I am wondering if you could answer this for me? Thanks Will how much time you spend on working on your muscles daily affect yours results? And also does this apply to training your muscles to do an activities such as soccer tricks? example: Will working on my arms with arm exercises for 10 minutes give me x2 the effects/results of doing it for 5 minutes?
+Arash Lawi bro I don't know what's your goal is or what you want to achieve? but to give you a general info about bodybuilding is that the most important rule is the diet! you won't go far if you don't have proper diet! There are tons of videos and articles on internet made by experts regarding your question. I can't tell you what to do since I'm not an expert nor I know anything about your physiology!
+Arash Lawi np bro. I dunno what training is best for football but I know bodybuilding is definitely not a good choice because in sports like football you need to be agile thus bodybuilding make you heavy and stiff which slow you down.
Aryan Zagros Mhm I plan to do exercises using my own weight and running a mile daily to get fit for football. I just need a good diet plan and I will be good to go. So hows life where you are living? Do you live in america?
Actually once I have thought about such thing. What if we just did some kind of operations in order to make mini-cuts in our muscles? Would they just grow stronger? Wouldn't it be weird that muscles get stronger and bigger without any exercises? I just wonder if it's possible.
@@PinkeySuavo seems complicated. Some people have big muscles and yet struggle to use them and activate them properly because they’re not used to the effort. For example, some guy with relatively thin arms but has been doing curls for 2 years might do as good or better than someone with muscles twice as big but without doing any curls whatsoever. It’s called mind-muscle connection and the more sport you do, the better it gets and the faster you learn new movements and the better your control of your body is.
@@PinkeySuavo Possibly. But I think it would be more of inducing strain on muscles rather than operations, kind of like a message except it causes muscles to tear and work without you putting in the effort. If so then there is physiotherapy sessions that is done for people with disabilities but they are not as effective as working out yourself. I guess maybe in the future we could maintain perfect bodies without work, but right now I don’t see any other option except putting in the work.
+Giantcarlo If you replace eating with eating lean meats, and opening doors with ab exercises, then yes. I know you're being sarcastic, but it really is a pretty straight forward process.
+Andrew Coleman I've been doing ab exercises, really intense ones, for 2 months without anything showing. I know they're harder but it's not visible.i think you need to loose body fat to actually have a 6 pack. I have a belly.
+RoScFan Yeah you need to lose the fat in order for them to show. Try some conditioning work and weightlifting. There's some pretty good stuff for free on RUclips (Tony Horton, Athlean X...)

I shall accede to the throne to lead my army of imbeciles to realise the promised ideal I had so meticulously planted in their minds. The world will tremble at my feet and I shall go remembered in history as the most charasmatic leader of the RUclips commentators.
I thought the muscle damage causing growth was a myth. From what I’ve understood, there’s two different types of muscle growth, hypertrophy and hyperplasia. Hypertrophy is when your muscle cells grow, hyperplasia is when you generate new muscle cells to repair and replace damaged ones. You want hypertrophy, to grow your individual muscle cells, so having too much muscle damage can actually hinder your gains. This is even observed in several studies showing massive drop offs and even declines in muscle growth after a certain amount of volume, particularly with higher weight, lower rep work.
don't overcomplicate stuff. You go to the gym, you make sure you work out your muscles until they get tired, and then you eat a lot and rest. Nothing else. Even though there may be drop off in muscle growth it's complicating the process. The muscle growth you lose is negligible
You are correct, muscle damage doesn't make muscles grow and excessive damage hinders growth. Mechanoreceptors sense tension on a muscle and if enough of mechanical tension is placed on a muscle it grows.
This video didn't point out clearly enough that strength gains and hypertrophy aren't the same. Most strength gains for a beginner comes from neural adaptation, not muscle growth. That is, your body learns to use its muscles more efficiently. There's also two types of hypertrophy, sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar.
+triton62674 Well that depends on what diet. Powerlifters (performance athletes, setting goals on lifting X wight for Y reps for Z exercise) on a "cut", eating to try to keep muscle mass and burn fat on workouts, Will experience a decrease in preformance, meaning hitting weight goals will get much harder, and failure is highly possible. on a cut you usually eat alot of protein, less fat and carbs and overall less calories. That means that they give their muscles what they need to recover, but cut the carbs, so that the body will burn the fat for energy instead of carbs, which are much easier to use than fat and therefore on a higher priority to the body. All athletes will feel much less energetic on workout while on a diet. bodybuilders will look smaller after a cut but their muscle will be much more defined. But the cut doesnt affect them as much because their workouts arent usually based on performance.
+edheldude My thoughts exactly. The reason a 6 year old gymnast can perform a planche is because of neural strength not muscle size. It's a great point that should be explained to everyone before they start training/working out.
+edheldude thanks for comment about hypertrophy vs strength. I tried to address this more clearly in the "Dig Deeper" section on the TEDed site:. It reads: "While there is meaningful overlap between muscle size and strength, it is possible to gain strength without increasing muscle size. Strength can be achieved by upgrading your central nervous system to recruit and coordinate more existing muscle fibers. Changes in the fascia, tendons, and bones also affect the contracting muscles ability to transmit force. Bodybuilding techniques are primarily concerned with building new muscle fibers. If you're looking for ways to train for size opposed to strength, read "Size Vs. Strength: Are You Lifting Too Heavy?""
“The way you treat them on a daily basis, determines whether they will wither, or grow.” *Me - in pajamas eating chips* “Wow this video is so accurate”
Watching this video 6 years later. Still such great info. Challenging to some people’s life choices nowadays with providing scientific facts to the male and female bodies.
the mistake thats hunting me rn is NOT working out when i turned 14 im 25 now sure i mastered 4 languages but for what!!! health IS wea lth guys... and knowledge is power : )
I need to exercise more of my muscles groups. This video has explained to me in plain, simple, easy to understand language (with necessary jargon) what's really going on when you exercise and challenge muscles. And then eat right, and sleep/rest. Thank you for the post!
The most important thing for starting building muscle is muscle pump. It’s when your muscles are swole and appear much larger than they actually are. It lasts only around 2 hours after workout, but it makes you think that your muscles grow really fast, so it makes you want to keep working out.
@@manofgod7622 depends on the person. I get motivated when I'm able to do something I wasn't able to do before. But I guess I'm not 'building muscle'; I'm doing sports so I have a goal beyond getting big
You’re on the right track with self-confidence, because it’s a mental battle before physical, but I would argue that a growth mindset is most important. Once you’ve adopted this mindset, it naturally leads to discipline, which is necessary to learn good technique, work hard, and train consistently, which are the keys to long-term progress.
That was more informative and helpful than the 20 videos from other youtube channels that I've already watched...combined! Thanks for answering my question TED. I can always rely on you!
Watching this because I had knee surgery and have to rebuild muscles in my legs so I can walk normally again. Very informative and helps me see what I’m trying to accomplish
This is based on out-dated information. The most recent studies show that muscle fiber tears do not result in increase in muscle size, but rather mechanic tension is the main driver of muscle growth. Muscle tears can be a side effect from mechanical tension but you can create muscle tears without inducing mechanical tension.
Unknown Legend Do a few exercises a week where you lift a little more weight on your left arm (like 2.5 pounds more), but keep the reps and sets the same for both arms. Alternatively, keep the weight the same, but do a few more reps with the left arm per set on certain exercises.
Before you waste your time the thing that makes muscle grow is 1_when the fibers of the muscle are stretched more than it could handle that the fibers will start to cutting 2_resting your muscles enough time (this happens while sleeping and during consuming foods that have protein,carbohydrates,healthy fats) 3_ don't overtrain the muscle ( by that I mean is to not hit muscular fatigue in every set you but you can hit failure in 1 or 2 set of any exercise and the other set go near failure 1 or 2 reps) And that it how muscle grow and thank you for your time

However, I started searching up the internet for the reason, and I found reasons, which were also mentioned in this video, that I also have to eat food containing protein, which will allow my muscles to become stronger and bigger. Also, I didn't sleep enough to rest my muscles, which also resulted in not making them grow. In my opinion, if anyone wants to start gaining muscles and become stronger, they have to sleep well, eat well, and finally, workout constantly. To be more specific, not to skip any training day so the muscles will learn the pattern and continue growing and becoming stronger.
Now I see reason to grow muscles, man I need to pet those giant cats
No. Just be Thanos
Shouldnt be skipping cat day
So you actually mean to pet lions. If you fail to carry them, they will eat you.

But there is a twist. Like any Sophism they will hand you all 100% accurate data and information but at the end just as they are concluding with a final message they start omitting a few elements and them conclude something FALSE that is the opposite or at least a very incomplete version of what they were saying.
Typical Propaganda Technique, I am surprised TED fell for it.
2:45 They clearly state (correctly) that muscles rely not only in activity to grow, they need, hormones, proper nutrition and rest.
3:55 The Sophistic CONCLUSION: "It is with muscles as it is with life, meaningful growth requires challenges and stress".
But for some reason they forgot to mention PROPER NUTRITION and ENOUGH REST here at the end!!!!
So our Capitalistic Parasites who exploit the workforce will indeed love this video to show their employees that all the stress they are being subjected to is in fact important for their own growth.
Omitting that underpaid employees that can't rest enough nor afford proper nutrition won't grow.
PAIN is useless if you don't have proper nutrition (intake of quality good stuff) and enough quality REST.
We focus on the PAIN aspect and we forget we need another TWO elements for that equation to work.

I do bodybuilding as a hobby and this video said it all perfectly about how to grow your muscle!
+Aryan Zagros Salam I saw your name and I am wondering if you are Iranian? I am Iranian too, I am wondering if you could answer this for me? Thanks
Will how much time you spend on working on your muscles daily affect yours results? And also does this apply to training your muscles to do an activities such as soccer tricks?
example: Will working on my arms with arm exercises for 10 minutes give me x2 the effects/results of doing it for 5 minutes?
+Arash Lawi bro I don't know what's your goal is or what you want to achieve? but to give you a general info about bodybuilding is that the most important rule is the diet! you won't go far if you don't have proper diet!
There are tons of videos and articles on internet made by experts regarding your question. I can't tell you what to do since I'm not an expert nor I know anything about your physiology!
Aryan Zagros Alright thanks I will do that. I was talking about getting fit for soccer too.
+Arash Lawi np bro. I dunno what training is best for football but I know bodybuilding is definitely not a good choice because in sports like football you need to be agile thus bodybuilding make you heavy and stiff which slow you down.
Aryan Zagros Mhm I plan to do exercises using my own weight and running a mile daily to get fit for football. I just need a good diet plan and I will be good to go.
So hows life where you are living? Do you live in america?
So no pain no gain?
Pretty much. Also higher weights and higher reps.
Or no rest no gain
Pretty much

RIP muscles
Actually once I have thought about such thing. What if we just did some kind of operations in order to make mini-cuts in our muscles? Would they just grow stronger? Wouldn't it be weird that muscles get stronger and bigger without any exercises? I just wonder if it's possible.
@@PinkeySuavo seems complicated. Some people have big muscles and yet struggle to use them and activate them properly because they’re not used to the effort.
For example, some guy with relatively thin arms but has been doing curls for 2 years might do as good or better than someone with muscles twice as big but without doing any curls whatsoever.
It’s called mind-muscle connection and the more sport you do, the better it gets and the faster you learn new movements and the better your control of your body is.
@@PinkeySuavo Possibly. But I think it would be more of inducing strain on muscles rather than operations, kind of like a message except it causes muscles to tear and work without you putting in the effort. If so then there is physiotherapy sessions that is done for people with disabilities but they are not as effective as working out yourself.
I guess maybe in the future we could maintain perfect bodies without work, but right now I don’t see any other option except putting in the work.
So if I just eat, sleep and open doors all day I'll have a six-pack?
Shit guys this changes everything.
+Giantcarlo Iron doors, though
+Giantcarlo If you replace eating with eating lean meats, and opening doors with ab exercises, then yes. I know you're being sarcastic, but it really is a pretty straight forward process.
Or push ups with dogs in
+Andrew Coleman I've been doing ab exercises, really intense ones, for 2 months without anything showing. I know they're harder but it's not visible.i think you need to loose body fat to actually have a 6 pack. I have a belly.
+RoScFan Yeah you need to lose the fat in order for them to show. Try some conditioning work and weightlifting. There's some pretty good stuff for free on RUclips (Tony Horton, Athlean X...)

I shall accede to the throne to lead my army of imbeciles to realise the promised ideal I had so meticulously planted in their minds. The world will tremble at my feet and I shall go remembered in history as the most charasmatic leader of the RUclips commentators.
Felipe Costa You sound mad LOL
I thought the muscle damage causing growth was a myth. From what I’ve understood, there’s two different types of muscle growth, hypertrophy and hyperplasia. Hypertrophy is when your muscle cells grow, hyperplasia is when you generate new muscle cells to repair and replace damaged ones. You want hypertrophy, to grow your individual muscle cells, so having too much muscle damage can actually hinder your gains. This is even observed in several studies showing massive drop offs and even declines in muscle growth after a certain amount of volume, particularly with higher weight, lower rep work.
don't overcomplicate stuff. You go to the gym, you make sure you work out your muscles until they get tired, and then you eat a lot and rest. Nothing else. Even though there may be drop off in muscle growth it's complicating the process. The muscle growth you lose is negligible
@@rubenarvidsson9004 dont overwork your muscles, if you get tired while working that means you overworked and you'll be feeling tired the next day
@@dawidek4267 I only said that your muscles should get tired
You are correct, muscle damage doesn't make muscles grow and excessive damage hinders growth. Mechanoreceptors sense tension on a muscle and if enough of mechanical tension is placed on a muscle it grows.
You are right.
"With more sleep"
Me watching this at 3am

This video didn't point out clearly enough that strength gains and hypertrophy aren't the same. Most strength gains for a beginner comes from neural adaptation, not muscle growth. That is, your body learns to use its muscles more efficiently. There's also two types of hypertrophy, sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar.
+edheldude So if you were to diet and weight train at the same time when what would happen?
A beginner can gain strength and muscle while lifting in moderate caloric deficit. More advanced lifters can't.
+triton62674 Well that depends on what diet. Powerlifters (performance athletes, setting goals on lifting X wight for Y reps for Z exercise) on a "cut", eating to try to keep muscle mass and burn fat on workouts, Will experience a decrease in preformance, meaning hitting weight goals will get much harder, and failure is highly possible. on a cut you usually eat alot of protein, less fat and carbs and overall less calories. That means that they give their muscles what they need to recover, but cut the carbs, so that the body will burn the fat for energy instead of carbs, which are much easier to use than fat and therefore on a higher priority to the body.
All athletes will feel much less energetic on workout while on a diet. bodybuilders will look smaller after a cut but their muscle will be much more defined. But the cut doesnt affect them as much because their workouts arent usually based on performance.
+edheldude My thoughts exactly. The reason a 6 year old gymnast can perform a planche is because of neural strength not muscle size. It's a great point that should be explained to everyone before they start training/working out.
+edheldude thanks for comment about hypertrophy vs strength. I tried to address this more clearly in the "Dig Deeper" section on the TEDed site:. It reads:
"While there is meaningful overlap between muscle size and strength, it is possible to gain strength without increasing muscle size. Strength can be achieved by upgrading your central nervous system to recruit and coordinate more existing muscle fibers. Changes in the fascia, tendons, and bones also affect the contracting muscles ability to transmit force. Bodybuilding techniques are primarily concerned with building new muscle fibers. If you're looking for ways to train for size opposed to strength, read "Size Vs. Strength: Are You Lifting Too Heavy?""
“The way you treat them on a daily basis, determines whether they will wither, or grow.”

lth guys... and knowledge is power : )
I need to exercise more of my muscles groups. This video has explained to me in plain, simple, easy to understand language (with necessary jargon) what's really going on when you exercise and challenge muscles. And then eat right, and sleep/rest. Thank you for the post!
The most important thing is self confidence. This is the main motivation for every thing including building up muscle.
The most important thing for starting building muscle is muscle pump. It’s when your muscles are swole and appear much larger than they actually are. It lasts only around 2 hours after workout, but it makes you think that your muscles grow really fast, so it makes you want to keep working out.
@@manofgod7622 depends on the person. I get motivated when I'm able to do something I wasn't able to do before. But I guess I'm not 'building muscle'; I'm doing sports so I have a goal beyond getting big
You’re on the right track with self-confidence, because it’s a mental battle before physical, but I would argue that a growth mindset is most important. Once you’ve adopted this mindset, it naturally leads to discipline, which is necessary to learn good technique, work hard, and train consistently, which are the keys to long-term progress.
You mean if we didnt have a good trainer
@@manofgod7622 Too much muscle pump can make you less agile. So good combination of cardio and muscle buildup is great.

🦫🇵🇸
This is based on out-dated information. The most recent studies show that muscle fiber tears do not result in increase in muscle size, but rather mechanic tension is the main driver of muscle growth. Muscle tears can be a side effect from mechanical tension but you can create muscle tears without inducing mechanical tension.
was looking for this comment, thank you!
Yeah, the video wa literaly 8 years ago

Do a few exercises a week where you lift a little more weight on your left arm (like 2.5 pounds more), but keep the reps and sets the same for both arms. Alternatively, keep the weight the same, but do a few more reps with the left arm per set on certain exercises.

sorry
Before you waste your time the thing that makes muscle grow is
1_when the fibers of the muscle are stretched more than it could handle that the fibers will start to cutting
2_resting your muscles enough time (this happens while sleeping and during consuming foods that have protein,carbohydrates,healthy fats)
3_ don't overtrain the muscle ( by that I mean is to not hit muscular fatigue in every set you but you can hit failure in 1 or 2 set of any exercise and the other set go near failure 1 or 2 reps)
And that it how muscle grow and thank you for your time
