Hey Chad, what are your recommendation/thoughts on volume for hypertrophy as primary goal? Do you agree with the 10 to 20 sets per week consensus? Or do you think majorityo of the gains you can achieve with less than that recommendation?
Each muscle group is going to have unique MEV/MAV/MRV some which will be in that 10-20 range and some outside, then on top of that, different individuals (gender, age, strength, experience, lifestyle) will have differences in their ranges.
whats your opinion on training with more sets and fewer reps, regardless of hypertrophy or strength? for example, instead of something conventional like 3 sets of 3 at 80%, i can do 5 or 6 sets of 2 in the same amount of time or less. i dont feel as fatigued at the end of a session, AND i got more volume in at the same intensity.
@@kylebeng same absolute intensity but lower relative intensity (further from your maximum/failure) so the stimulus it provides isn’t as strong. It can definitely work well though when done with great intent. There are too many variables from case to case for me to say conclusively on something like this.
@JuggernautTrainingSystems thanks for the reply. It's been something I've been playing around w recently, as recent studies have shown, for strength stimulus, the proximity from failure matters less than absolute intensity. And I do agree, I think the main driving point is that you can drive each rep stronger.
@ if it doesn’t hurt, yes it’s definitely efficient. You’ll just need to experiment with stance width, toe angle, bar position, tempo etc to find what isn’t recreating symptoms.
This has been an excellent series. Too many people don't pay attention to the essential Principles of Strength Training.
@@martymorse2 thanks
This video inspired me to improve squats -loving the progress so far!”❤❤
Very informative as always.Thanks Chad.
Glad you enjoyed it

If I have glute pain, would training high be efficient?
Training high? On drugs? High bar? Above parallel squats?
@@JuggernautTrainingSystems high bar

@@JuggernautTrainingSystemsthank you so much
Who is a guy at 6:06 . Real high bar SQ , and real warrior - lifting to failure with blood from his nose👏

Hi Chad, any plans on that principals of strength book becoming an audio book?
Probably not, I don't find very technical books like that to work well on audio only.
@ I agree I only ask because I’m usually too much on my feet all day so that’s how I consume by books lol
@stephenkain6603 copy paste the PDF in one of the hundreds of text to speech AI apps
Also sorry for the silly question lol
@ not a silly question, I’m an audiobook guy too
Why not adapt without using assistive equipment, belts and sleeves make it look to smooth easy
Train for what your sport allows. Would be unintelligent not to.
Thats like saying football players should not wear cleats
Would you ever do a 2nd Edition book of Scientific Principles?
Possibly. I mean the principles haven't changed much so not sure, such is the nature of principles.
