I would argue the #1 problem in strength training is too much junk volume. This, followed by overestimating your weight jumps and grinding through repetitions. My reasoning is all since it greatly affects your recovery time, and thus your next session. I totally agree with what you’re saying though, Moose! I’d just place it #2 or possibly #3 on the list.
This was very helpful. I've been doing same workouts for about 6 weeks now and I just haven't progressed much at all (especially in the deadlift) and I'm pretty weak for my weight class because of it. Good luck at world's and congratulations at your win at the Arnold's!
You are a great person Mitchell. Thank you for your great content ;)
Good point. Progressive overload in a linear fashion, once the novice stage is over, is complicated. The right time to introduce variations in load (Heavy-Light-Medium) or shift to biomechanically similar movements.
Quality information as usual Mitch. From the little knowledge I have in strongman training, Im going to guess the 2nd biggest mistake has something to do with rest days maybe?
Always love your videos great information by a great guy
Thanks for the Great Content, Brother.
Thanks Mitch💪🏼
... I like the 2 to 5% of progress. I was doing this wrong too often, mostly with deadlifting, where it's easy to put on too much weight suddenly. The reason being that I told myself I had done that weight before, but it was often months ago. It's not much use comparing yourself to yourself months or even years ago. It's smarter to build a few % each week in terms of load (or volume?) and keep building for a while and then peak and deload and switch it up a little afterward.
Really enjoy these short-format videos. Why did you record it on a boat though?
This is a really great video Mitch. Is there any specific research that you refer to for the 2% to 5% increase in load per week? Assuming of course that increasing load is the culmative total of volume in a given exercise per week, achieved by either increasing the weight, sets or reps. I appreciate the detail in these videos.
This is why Starting Strength has such great results. Not advocating for it, per se, but simple things have great results and people have a tendency to overcomplicate things.
Starting a block at too high a weight, and not allowing for enough recovery, are the two that cause dissatisfaction a lot of the time.
Great content. Just one comment, the camera moving around slightly all the time does leave me feeling a little seasick. Thanks for all the great content!
Thanks Hooper - Wish I could afford your coaching/coaching in general or I'd be all over it.
Hi, have you looked into his group programs? Much more affordable and you get his programming as well as weekly interaction with him.
@@septembersilverswould definitely be interested in that!
September is the goat
I do 3 week waves 4 times (12 week)
Ssb bench squat
Belt squat
Higher squat to safety pins
"Strongman front squat" (front loaded with a sandbag or stone etc)
Then start the same thing all over again and increase the weights 🤷🏼♂️
Firts 12 weeks I finished my safety pin squats with 150kg 4*4
Just today I finished my next 12 weeks safety pin squats with 190kg 3*4
Off season, taking a year off from competitions and building a base for the next year.
Same logic goes to deadlift,overhead press and event training. Oh yeah and I also do amrlifting competitions so I also train for that🤣
Got new pb on double overhand axle bar deadlift 157,5kg and saxon bar deadlift 94,5kg
When the competitions starts I'll focus more on the events, while doing accessory work to make them better.
I don't know what the science says 🤣but I've liked my 3 week wave system 🤷🏼♂️ And made progress so... I'm happy 🤣
💪
What about giving us a decent instruction on a proper de-load. Or a good idea. I feel like I'm in that, not getting stronger issue. Thanks Moose.
I think the #2 mistake is overestimating the time required for good training - as a collegiate strength/power athlete (throwing, rugby) I only need ~ 4-5 hours per week dedicated to all things strength and conditioning to compete at a high level. I also only lift 3 days a week most of the year (4 in the summer)
I do 3 week blocks in if I increase 1 or 2 reps from the last time I did that block am happy I have 3 blocks in rotation
I'm gonna say #2 is grinding out too many reps during warm up sets before you get to your training weight. I've definitely been guilty of that. Anymore (except for my 1st maybe 2nd set) I keep my reps within the range I'm going to be training at that higher weight. I know a lot of guys can probably warm up with a light set and go straight to work. I can't. So it might look like
Set 1:10-15 reps to get those neurons prepped.
Set 2: maybe 8 or so reps to get blood to really flow through the muscle.
3 onward are 5 reps until it drops to 3.
Am I making a mistake doing this? I really don't know. But I do know I'm not in pain when I do it like this.
that arnold victory is going to tear that wall down over time LOL
Reps, weight, how many top sets, how much assistance work for natty lifters
What are your realistic expectations at WSM 2023 based on your current training n progress ?
Podium ?
Top 5 ?
Gold ?
Realistically and objectively he's top 5, probably podium, but I'd bet on him to win, as well
❤
Would 2nd mistake be pushing for new one rep PRs too often? It seems like some guys who never push for one rep max PRs in training, only at comps, do really well.
1rm do very little for improving your strength. Heavy triples are much better and safer.
I know you are a believer in creatine. Curious what your thoughts are on BCAA’s. Are they beneficial for strength, recovery, best time to take them, etc.
BCAA'S are what is the main ingredient in protein that helps build/recover muscle tissue.
Just get your Proteins in, don't worry about BCAAs
As someone with vested interest in recommending BCAAS - don’t waste time with them. Protein is king
#2 not recording and tracking process and progress 😅
I've been doing that with photos, videos and paper, its certainly cool to see the progress in multiple ways
In non strongman terms, It called the Novice Linear Progression. Ask Mark Ripetoe.
Sounds like conjugate for Strongman

Not listening to your coach is usually a mistake 🤐
Thumbnail looks like it's for a crypto video
That's a $500000 mistake
Lmao
...😀
Nubies worrying about programming before they actually know how to lift is a mistake
Intermediitis occurs in 90% of specimens who have been lifting for about two years when they decide what they need to do is complicate their programming to the point of inscrutability. Ask your doctor about ways to prevent this condition if you want to save time in your lifting career.
@@highviewbarbell 2 years is still a nubie, but yes don't over complicate things

The #1 mistake is that they don’t make $500k a year
Where are all these comments about Hooper's earnings coming from? I don't care what he makes, just curious why his income keeps getting cited (seeing it in comments elsewhere)?

@@F2F2R ok, thanks.
#2 mistake is deleting peoples comments on your posts 😂
