    Hope you guys enjoy the video! All 21 references with studies can be found below.
    1. A survey of 127 competitive male bodybuilders found that more than two-thirds of them trained each muscle group only once per week
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22990567
    2. Those who trained each muscle three times per week gained much more muscle than those who trained each muscle less often
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25932981
    3. Many studies show that training each muscle more often than just once a week is much better for growth

    4. Protein synthesis generally only stays elevated levels for up to about 72 hours after a workout
    See Fig 1
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25739559
    5. A 12 week long strength training study found a linear dose-response relationship between dietary cholesterol intake and lean body mass gains
    See Fig 1A
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17921432
    6. Researchers compared a high cholesterol diet of 800 milligrams per day to a low cholesterol diet of less than 200 milligrams per day. The high cholesterol group had almost a three times higher muscle protein synthesis rate for 22 hours after intense resistance training than the low cholesterol group.
    www.fasebj.org/doi/abs/10.1096/fasebj.25.1_supplement.lb563
    7. The more weight the participants could bench-press The more mass they had on their pecs
    See Graph in Fig 1
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24169471
    8. There's an extremely tight relationship between fat free mass or in other words muscle mass and performance
    journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/jappl.2000.89.3.1061
    9. In powerlifters, there's a 86 to 95 percent correlation between a lifters muscle mass and their strength and performance in the key power lifts like squats, deadlifts, and bench press
    "Performance of the SQT, BP, and DL was strongly correlated with FFM and FFM relative to standing height (r=0.86 to 0.95, P≤0.001)."
    link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00421-001-0543-7
    10. Doing multiple sets per exercise led to 40 percent more muscle growth than doing only one set per exercise
    See Fig 1
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20300012
    11. Doing four to six sets per exercise was superior to two to three sets, and two to three sets were better than doing only one set.
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20300012
    12. “Muscle hypertrophy follows a dose-response relationship, with increasingly greater gains achieved with higher training volumes.”
    sci-hub.tw/journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/Fulltext/2019/01000/Resistance_Training_Volume_Enhances_Muscle.13.aspx
    13. A 2012 meta-analysis found that adding cardio to a resistance training routine reduced muscle growth effect size by 39 percent
    See Graph
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22002517/
    14. Cardio decreases Mtor and increases AMPK. This is a bad combo for muscle growth
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17095927
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11715023
    15. Participants who ate a small surplus packed on five times less fat than those who consumed an extra 600 calories (larger surplus)
    See Figure 1
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23679146
    16. Ensure that you're consuming at least 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight or 0.73grams per pound of body weight per day
    See Figure 5
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28698222
    17. Deep squats, as opposed to partial squats, led to much more muscle growth on the quads
    See Fig 4
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23604798
    18. Other studies also show similar results that a full range of motion is better for growth than partial.
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22027847
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23629583
    19. Working through a full ROM produces a higher level of muscle activation

    20. You might miss out on stimulating all parts of a specific muscle if you go for partial reps
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23629583
    21. Overloading muscles in their stretched position, which is something that you do with full Range of motion exercises, seems to be particularly important for muscle growth

    #5 needs to be a little more specific to the term “Cardio”
    Doing 30 minutes of light cardiovascular activity such as a jog or light elliptical/ arc trainer work with a heart approximately 100-130 beats per minute will boost muscle growth. It will help your body have proper cardiovascular health which in turn will make the body deliver nutrients more efficiently. It will also boost neurological and cognitive health which boosts hormones levels, again adding in muscle mass growth.
    Too much cardio is of course bad for muscle growth.
    The term Cardio needed a more adequate explanation.

      It also depends on the type of cardio and what kind of adaptations it encourages in your body. For example, being a sprinter won’t hinder your muscle growth, but being a long distance runner definitely could.

    the best method for gaining muscle is to make sure to keep creating progressive overload. every month or less, keep increasing the intensity when you are able to handle it. this is to keep it simple and easy for anyone to understand, progressive overload builds muscle over time. You also want to make sure you are performing each exercise with a good technique and contracting a much as possible. and of course, your nutrition is important.

    I like to simply focus on compound exercises or body weight training/calisthenics.
    A few isolations here and there but mostly compound.
    I’m not trying to get super big, just stronger. But by focusing on getting stronger, I will get bigger.
    Also, I’m good on my nutrition and eat enough protein, carbs, and fats. Plenty of water too.
    When it comes to supplements. I stay away from
    Whey protein and go for plant based protein and even better, Bone Broth Protein. And stay away from energy drinks too. You don’t need it. If you want energy, just eat some carbs before you hit the gym. Not too much to make you feel full but snack size.

    He recommends for most exercises you don’t do that to keep the tension high in those worked muscles.

      A year later i was still the same,85kilos but i was bulky and with muscle and my body fat had dropped

    • @goblinslayer6432
      @goblinslayer6432 4 года назад +3

      Each day I work out for 1 to 1.5 hours. Not everyday I have the same energy, so I take my time accordingly. Each exercise I do 3 sets of 12 reps each, so total 3*12=36. When I was losing weight in the beginning I did cardio (1km jogging) everyday as I was skinny fat, without a rest day. Along with working out. There were negligible results in muscle growth in the 1st month.......however from the second month my results took speed. It's not that I have six packs now... as It is more of a strict diet than exercise, but I have lost the bulging stomach . But my arms, legs and shoulders have developed. They have developed vascularity and after workouts the muscles can be seen well defined. I will go for cutting diet after six months...... Hope this helps.

    • @goblinslayer6432
      @goblinslayer6432 4 года назад +1

      Bro, whatever u do, your muscles are bound to develop... The first 1 to 1.5 months may not give results. But the muscles are actually getting used to the new stimuli. Just do whatever you are doing, have protein, that's it. After getting ample results, like after 6 months, go for cutting diet. That's all.

      After you fast pass 18h, natural growth hormone will release, specially after a workout. One of the times growh hormone is down is in a presence of insulin. So its best not to have snaks or eat every 2 hours. Ivr been training for 11 years now turned 28 last august. Ive tried all the bodybuilding diet. Growing up in canada in highschool i didnt have research to read as computers and internet wasnt as big then. I had to get my info from muscle and fitness magazine and would think id have to follow thr diet... i started fasting and when i break my fast its usually post workout. I never eat preworkout. And when i eat i get 4000 calories. O break my meal tp break a f ast woth lean mean or eggs, i tske essential amino acid before my meals not bcaa because u need all amino acids to build muscle. I dont eat sugar or soft drinks.
      Bruh is my physique really that good? If u guys would like to know more about ,y training. I want to start uploading workouts and diet. Im a nurse graduate in the philippines and waiting tp take the nclex. I love fitness and have been natural since ive been in highschool. Please dont be afraid to DM me on IG @a1.fitness92

      I’m pretty sure resistance bands mimics weights and they are still good but at the end of the resistance you won’t have any tension and using weighted and resistance bands can be very beneficial. But resistance bands is for sure not a waste of time and they are very useful because they are pretty cheap and are easy to use at home

    @hahaMrdarthpwns 3 года назад +2

    This is very informative and useful. The only part I'd disagree with is the powerlifting statement regarding muscle mass and strength.
    It is pretty common knowledge that studies have shown that there is much more that goes into strength than mass. One study showed that those with less muscle mass will put out more force per square inch of muscle than those with significantly high mass. This indicates that the body can compensate in some ways. One way the body compensates may be neural adaptations.
    There are plenty of real life examples of this. Just to give a name, Stephanie Cohen weights 120 lbs and can lift 500 lbs.
    There are also other factors that go into muscle mass. Many supplements now adays cause our muscles to inflate with water and appear bigger, however they do not necessarily have the strength to match the size.

    Everything's perfectly explained and I totally agree with this video.A small thing to make clear is that the 1.6g/kg of protein is wrong...the legit one is 1.2-1.6g/fatless kg,meaning if you are 100kg and you have 15% bodyfat,lean body mass is about 85kg,which means in total about 102-136 of protein instead of 160g per day.The bad thing about it is that extra protein turns into fat and we don't want that.
    I need to say also that I have a PhD in Physiology and I'm not any random guy.
