The breathing note at 9:23 is off. The concentric lifting portion is harder (where people fail). He is saying to inhale as you lower the weight (easier) and exhale as your try to lift the weight back up (harder). Thank you for the effort on everything else!
I learned all of this thru trial and error and thru various coaches over 15 years and here this guy goes giving it all away. Kids got it good these days
Most of the kids don't look at training videos. They just go to the gym and do silly stuff. And an experienced older guy like me tell them how to train with mind and body. But most of them are just ignorant and don't want someone to tell them what to do. In the end, they all train wrong and too heavy with no technique. I tell them all the time to look at video's like Mike Mentzer, who shows them how to build muscle with short and hard training. They just don't want to learn so I let them do their shit and I do mine.
All of you older guys out here, please don't stop giving out advices becaise some ignored your words. People like me, who would gladly listen to you guys with more experience still exists and they would love if someone tried to mentor them through thick and thin. Althou you should be more directive towards the right path and info rather than going through every info on your own because information these days is readlity available if one makes effort but it is the path and which one to takes that needs to be talked about... Much love,
Main Takeaways: 1. The speaker emphasizes the importance of exercise selection for strength training. Exercises should have a full range of motion, not induce injury, and balance different movement patterns (e.g., upper body press, upper body pull, lower body hinge, and lower body press). 2. Intensity is crucial for strength development. Higher threshold motor neurons need to be activated by challenging the muscles to produce more total force. Low repetition ranges (2 to 4 reps) with high rest intervals (2 to 4 minutes) are recommended. 3. Breathing strategies during resistance training can vary depending on the individual and the type of exercise. Maintaining intra-abdominal pressure (bracing) is essential. One common approach is to exhale on the concentric (lifting) phase and inhale on the eccentric (lowering) phase. 4. For endurance training, exercises that minimize eccentric landing are recommended to avoid excessive muscle damage. Activities like cycling, swimming, and rowing are examples of low eccentric load exercises. 5. Combining strength training with endurance training (concurrent training) does not compromise endurance gains but may slightly reduce strength and muscle growth improvements. 6. Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) can be used as a supplement to delay fatigue during intense workouts. Starting with a lower dose (e.g., half a teaspoon) is recommended. 7. Creatine monohydrate is highly recommended as a versatile and effective supplement for various aspects of physical health and performance, including muscle development, neurological benefits, and potential mental health associations.
I'm a former professional and international rugby player/ coach. Studied it, the works. This is by far the most informed RUclips video I have seen on this subject. Good questions and great answers. Well done.
I found one warm up and one working set of around 18 to 20 reps to failure has worked real well for me and has kept me injury free I’m 55 still pumping and in shape great stuff guys
This is how I trained for many years, I have no shoulder cartridge left. Hypertrophy focused training only considers muscular failure and recovery, it doesn't consider joint stress and recovery requirements.
@DuncanL7979 Not enough to indicate change was needed. Most of my lifting related joint damage was from doing a shoulder day between push and pull days - 72 hr recovery for each means you do each of these twice a week. I should have eliminated shoulder day to allow for joint recovery and avoided straight bar benching.
@DuncanL7979 Read Scott Hogan's book, 'Built from Broken' to learn how to train in order to avoid this very pitfall... I.e., systematically ruining your connective tissue, over time, by ignoring the conditioning and preservation of these tissues, in a training protocol that focuses solely on building & strengthening muscle tissue (while ignoring connective tissue needs).
Push, Pull, Legs has worked wonders for me. Though my metabolism is rather absurd. My muscles recover within a day or two, however my nervous system takes about a day or two longer to recover. i think mentzer was right
i switch from push pull legs to day 1 legs (gets the hormones going for the rest of the week ) then back day 2, core and shoulders / chest / arms (tri and bicep) and it adds mass when I break it out more
@@taefithendo My thoughts as well: Give each muscle group 48hrs pending soreness for a rest day. AthleneX recommends a rest day in between each push/pull/leg. The body is amazing, but I am thinking about how practical it is for the body to be recovering from one exercise while also trying to overcompensate (hypertrophy) from the previous. I think we really need to hone in on our sleep, diet and macro's to ensure we're getting the full ROI from each workout session if it is back-to-back.
The research you typically see on recovery of muscles is done on beginners (less than 2 years of serious training). A beginner isn’t strong enough to tax much of anything, their coordination and cns level is in optimized. This is why their muscles can recover in 2-3 days. It’s been shown in advanced lifters, it can take well over a week for their muscles to recover.
For strength he says you could train same muscle group every day. I've found with my training over 45 years exact opposite was the case. I was weakest at each muscle group twice a week in my teens, stronger when I went to once every 7 in my 20's, then stronger again once every 9 in my 30's, then stronger again at once every 10-12 in my 40's. Now in my late 50's I"m lifting the heaviest I've ever lifted in my life at each muscle group once every 14 days. Basically every 10 years each time I started getting burnt out injuries sick of training etc the only way for me to get stronger and feel young again was to add more rest days.
He’s referring to training solely for strength (which means eliminating the eccentric part of the rep) So if doing a deadlift for example… you pick up the weight and literally drop it. Zero controlling the negatives This is how Olympic lifters can train everyday and not add muscle size
I like the part about breathing. Naturally I never wanted to take a breath for every rep. And I still hold my breath just comfortably for several reps.
Thank you so much for explaining this in terms I can comprehend. I’ve been searching to understand these things and I’m 38 yrs in. This information is not common knowledge but should be
Wow, I just learned so much about "Anatoly Strength Secret" (Vladimir Schmondenko) I'm having trouble processing it all. Oh wait, now I can. I'm processing clickbait. Thanks Brain Mindset.
I love this video! before kids, I went to the gym religiously, but i hated long workouts! mainly, i did ladder workouts fast. one week, i would run first, the next week i would run after the workouts. some 2nd runs in the evening. but i used plant based protein, bcaa amino acids(i've read since they don't work) in water during the workout, and kre-alkaline creatine before the workout. i could absolutely feel a difference in my workouts!!! shoot, I running 80 plus miles a month and leg pressing over 1000lbs, but i wasn't huge or insanely ripped!! i loved it, i just felt healthy!!! i need to get back to that, i needed this video, thank you!!!!
Triple Your Lifts With This Protocol? I am no hater or anything, it's an informative video for someone who is new to lifting weights, but there's much more to it to TRIPLE your lifts than this... Obviously it depends who is the lifter, a beginner or someone who has been training for some time. Click bait nowadays is getting out of hand.
Excellet. I love the fact that they do not only address gym freaks. I loved the part where he said do the reps so that you don't get bored. I hate gyms but understand is good for me so I loved that part. I would not be consistent if I had to follow one of those 2 body parts per day!
Ive been learning about fitness for years now. This was the most important video ive seen to date, the wealth of knowledge and honesty here is unmatched. Thank you, the both of you. Subscribed.
@@Victor-ji1rz100% of my lift is 100lbs one rep max, later I can lift 200lbs I just increased my lift by double. Now this would be 200% of my original effort. Then later I can lift 300lbs and now I can lift 300% of my original effort. It’s not like a stock. If I put my money on the table and nothing happens there is no gain. If my money now doubles I’m only up 100%. With lifting weight one could say my one reps max is 100% of my effort. We don’t use a base line of rest to claim this is my 100% effort level.
Awesome video.. I cycle everyday. 30-40 mile a nite. Weather stationary bike or road course. Absolutely no muscle soreness at all. Within a yr I’ve lost 70 lbs with out touching a single piece of weight lifting equipment. #MasterBuilder#Numerology#✊🏻🤔👍🏻
Doing a little bit of high intensity not to failure every day gave me more strength. Not even high intensity actually just heavy and steady, focusing on mental aspect, coordination and control, real light work actually, but everyday, and endurance separately
because these people don't know chemistry. baking soda is weak alkaline. stomach acid is HCL strong acid. No food can change your PH. that is another knowledge that people don't pay attention to chemistry in school. Your Your body regulates the right PH by a buffer, you do not change the PH. Nonsense circulation, have no chemistry or biology.
Cream of tartar (potassium bitartrate) is another cheap store bought one you can take with many benefits. You can mix things like turmeric, ginger, cayenne, baking soda, cream of tartar into your protein tub so you get like a teaspoon or so of each Every scoop.
If, for strenght, we can train everysingle day, how about the ligaments nor tendons? They recover longer than the muscles... And using very big weight, you kinda put a lot of pressure on the ligaments and tendons.
Volume is the key. With increased frequency and high intensity, volume has to be very low. I think when I was doing this for squats I worked up to a quick heavy single daily. After 2 months my squat max went up 75lbs. I was doing very quick, speed squats with 475lbs. I was around 176-180lbs depending on the day. Just pick one exercise to do this with, and you need to have really good form in it. I would not use deadlifts, I tried this and got my butt kicked even with 70% of 1RM.
Training with full range of motion strengthens the tendons. Also the faster you lift the more it trains the tendons while slow eccentrics trains more the muscle. Training reverse motions strengthens the tendons such as nordic curls if you squat alot
No one (typically)has enough proper rest to strength train everyday the same body part. I did it a bit a few months back… 3xs a week good enough for me. 😊
how much baking soda do you take? they say half a tablespoon here but everything else ive seen says to take .2g per kilo of body weight. thats like 19 grams, waaay more than they suggest here.
Very good info. I didn't know about Baking Soda use for pre-workout but I have been utilizing Creatine Monohydrate + D-Ribose as well as L-Arginine, Citrulline Malate and Beta Alanine. I was using those when I used to do more weight lifting and strength training but lately all I do is train on the heavy bag and I could tell the difference of intensity between taking them and not.
Be careful with baking soda. Benefits are very limited and potential for serious GI distress is very high. Lots of research published on this. Don’t just believe what you hear on YT.
All this is really great info for someone who is trying to figure out their programming. Others have heard these tips from other strength athletes and coaches, and have had to play with them to figure this out. Some of these ideas I have seen from Mark Rippetoe, and others are from a handful of youtubers who focus on strength training. The baking soda trick is something I never heard of.
Makes sense training everyday for strength. In HS I really adhered to squats, since I never had a big upper frame/strength. I squatted everyday in weight training class. I was able to squat 425 lbs max @ 115 lb body weight. I never got close to twice my weight on my other maxes, except a 250 deadlift.
@janakibarik6800 Well back in HS it was just a normal 6-10 reps per set, 3-5 sets per day, and 2-3 workouts each week, resting as needed per week, for each major compound lift. Then 15-20 reps for smaller concentrated muscle groups. You do this for 3-4 months with progressive overload, then push for your one rep max lift for each lift after the 3-4 months.
Interesting bit on baking soda. I’ve been wondering about the effect the high ph in government tap water has on our bodies. Can’t feed tap water to plants, the high Ph keeps the plant from being able to absorb nutrients, doesn’t matter how many nutrients are available. The chlorine kills the bacteria in the dirt which renders the soil toxic and inert. Rainwater is generally neutral, i have to make sure all plants get watered with a Ph less than 6.5-7 or, the die slowly despite having all available and needed nutrition. Our bodies may work similar by the sounds of it.
Why I always say(think) that Mike mentzer was greatest of the body builder ever.. And most intellect of his kind... And well ahead of his time........ Greatest philospher.. Rest in peace...
Start very early in life to prepare the nervous system. Practice of practicing. Hard work. Technique. Adaptation over time. Nutrition. Low stress life. Sleep. Application of correct training methods. Finally genetic helpful.
@@DrAJ_LatinAmerica Too bad I'm older now, higher stress, and skinny genes that can't gain hardly a pound of weight. Have been lifting for years and am cut, but can't pack any weight on. Increasing calories never worked for me either. They say I'm an enigma!
Zone 2 training is in fact highly recommended for ALL athletes including strength athletes BECAUSE such training proliferates new mitochondria which are our energy producing engines. More mitochondria = more energy and it also optimizes metabolism (a foundation of health) as does muscle gain from strength training. The two are a winning duo important for strength athletes as much as strength training is for endurance athletes. One cannot be a complete athlete unless both systems of training are applied, along with optimal nutrition and rest of course. Former professional cyclist here who went against my own coach’s advice not to strength train for years before it became “fashionable” nowadays.
For hypertrophy does this split work Monday: Upper body push Tuesday: Lower push/pull Wednesday: Upper body pull Thursday: off Friday: off Saturday: Upper body push Sunday: Lower push/pull Monday: Upper body pull Tuesday: off Wednesday: off Thursday: Upper body push Friday: Lower body push/pull Saturday: Upper body pull Sunday: off And so on. For hypertrophy we can do anywhere from 5 to 30 reps while focusing on intensity? And if you want to combine with anaerobic training you can push or pull a sled, row or walk uphill every day?
One thing i use in gym is what i call pyramid training. Start 40reps down to 5 and then back up again, as decrease reps i go higher weight. When at lowest i maximize the weight to the point of failure. I've been training for 15years now and by far this has helped me the most with muscle building, its taxing on the body but nice.
In my opinion, building muscle if only look at weight lifting is the volume of workout not so much about how heavy to lift. Target 10% increase everyweek, this method has helped me a lot.😊
At the end they were talking about baking soda. One thing they didn't mention is your choice of baking soda, baking soda is contaminated with anti caking agent, aluminium. Find a pure one, Arm & Hammer, or Mckenzis Sodium Bicarbonate.
"Professional athletes train everyday" i agree but he didn't say if they use drugs or not.since with drugs you recover a way faster and are able to train on daily basis and 95% of pro athletes are using drugs if they are really pro
I’d say 95% are using recreational drugs but I don’t think the PED usage is that high. I do agree though that there are way too many athletes that do PEDs and using the phrase “athletes train everyday” in your argument, isn’t a very credible source. The other thing is genetics. They also play a huge role in recovery as not everyone is built like the best athletes in the world. I believe steroids are used a lot but not up to the number that you describe. Genetics make everything extremely unfair, especially with steroids since they only give you the “good” benefits if your genetics are already optimal. That being said, using athletes to describe proper training is not very credible and doesn’t give the general audience any of the “reality” that they will be facing when they try to do the same thing. I got a spinal chord injury from having that mindset and now I’m learning that there are certain limitations that I have, that are unique to me and have to be addressed and requires a much different training design then other people and/or professional athletes
slightly confused by this - they both talk and agree that cardio training has no negative effects on muscle hypertrophy, yet Galpin proceeds to discuss The Interference Effect in which they discovered the combined group had decreased muscle hypertrophy (strength markers) , but not V02 (endurance markers). So what is the verdict does cardio training affect strength training negatively or not..?
Starting strength is good for strength, but it’s not the best for bodybuilding. You will build muscle on it, but it’s very disproportionate and many areas will be lacking. I would know because it added 2 inches to each of my legs but everything else barely grew even though I got strong. Starting strength is also terrible because it forces you to use squat bench deadlifts. You don’t need go do these exercises.
Mike Mentzer had this all figured out back in the 1970's, and was ignored by the More is Better crowd. Intensity over volume, with sufficient rest to grow.
He states that you can lift heavy more frequently with lower muscle soreness, but he didn’t address central nervous system fatigue that comes with training in the lower rep ranges. Performing heavy squats and deadlifts every day would cause some serious fatigue.
Pyramid lifting, helped me out with some strength, but I’ve never been strong. I just have tremendous endurance. My biggest drawback when I use to train was Recovery. My body was always running. 5 to 6 hr sleep per night. I couldn’t get 8 to 10 hr.
Ive done it for heartburn when i didnt have any tums, it was gross but no side effects. Im more concerned about the dose though. Everything else ive seen says to take 19 grams! so i cant see half a tablespoon doing much.
Running (although not eccentric compared to the ones mentioned) can strengthen the bones and especially the knee's, balance is key of course, but avoiding running isn't the answer for holistic health and strong ligaments/joints/bones.
All videos on RUclips are clickbait. That is what a social media site like RUclips is. All clickbait, you just need to find out which one you want to click on.
Gladci found this iam 56 wanting to go back to the gym for exercise but need to advoid neck area as have had part of the musle on left removed from cancer
creatine is insane, i am a climber that has a unrepaired broken finger and i was always in pain when climbing. since the creatine the pain is gone and im sooo much stronger!
Wtf. Says in one sentence zone 2 cardio will not affect hypertrophy in any way then says in the study endurance work affected hypertrophy and strength gains🤔
Endurance work would be considered more intense than zone 2 cardio. Ex., running and jogging. Zone 2 cardio is more a brisk walk. A general rule of thumb is when doing you're cardio, if you can't do it only breathing through your nose you've gone beyond zone 2.
@@ghostyff9183 zone 2 is the “aerobic zone”. I always considered aerobic training as endurance training. Anything faster than zone 2 starts to hit anaerobic zone which I wouldn’t consider endurance as much at that point.
Exactly. They didn't make any distinction here between zone 2 and higher level endurance training. I'm still unclear. It actually seems like the video was edited at the point after mentioning the study and a bit was cut out.
Tell a powerlifter they don't need a tremendous amount of rest after squats or deadlifts and they're going to laugh in your face. Some strength athletes don't recover from deadlifts for 14 days. I'm not the strongest person in the world and I still can't train deadlifts more than once per week. And squat EVERY DAY at the intensity it takes to build strength?! This is laughable.
All due respect, but this is not good information. National level powerlifter here, totaled 'elite', won state and national titles over 15 years. You sound like one of those "my CNS is fried bro" type of guys. 14 days is absolutely ridiculous. What is so special about the deadlift that you cannot train it more than once every week? If you can't deadlift more than once a week, you need to improve your work capacity because you are just not a well-conditioned athlete and your programming is likely trash. Look at the top IPF lifters, they are all squatting 2-3x per week and deadlifting 2x per week. I trained squat 3-4x per week and deadlifted 2x, benched 4x and totaled Elite. Olympic lifters squat 4-5x per week. I have no idea where you got your information, you sound like those old geared powerlifters from the late 90s and early 2000s. Look at the science and what the top guys are doing, high frequency is what are going to find.
@@oa2621 you're not understanding what IIII said. I didn't say every rep is maxed out. I said Olympic lifts are submaximal. That's two different things. Olympic lifting isn't strength training. That's why it can be done so often (even though the 5-6 times per week the previous person claimed STILL isn't everyday like this guy says). Ask a strongman or powerlifter (athletes who actually strength train( whether they squat everyday.
@cdubb6983 Powerlifter here. I squat, bench, and deadlift 2x/week, for each. Still progressing. Rest is crucial and fatigue is real, but you're likely holding yourself back if you only squat and deadlift once a week.
@@TheMulalley Im a woman who weighs under 84 kilos who deadlifts 470 pounds. I'm not recovering from a 470 lb deadlift in less than a week to be able to do it again. 470 would be glued to the floor on the second session. Just like a if a man who deadlifts 800 pounds wouldn't be able to do so twice a week. Technique and accessory deadlift for the second session? Sure. But heavy deadlifting twice a week? No way. Nervous system won't recover enough. Once you progress to the point where the relative intensity of those lifts are high enough, you're not performing deadlifts everyday. Bench and squat are absolutely doable 2/week at that intensity (squat still depends on your leverages as lifters with long limbs will need a lot more recovery do to having done more work) But deadlift? Absolutely not.
I am 62 years old. I do a daily training with weights where army, twops, triceps, shoulders, I make funds and squats and I walk about 2 to 3 km per day. But I do not take nigun supplement, creatine could help me increase my muscle mass? But I would like to increase my muscle mass that I can't increase. And aotra question. If I wanted to add any furza training as explained here, exercises of 3 to 5 repetitions with greater weight, could it do so for example 2 days a week and the rest safely doing it as until now? Thank you so much
I tried the baking soda in seltzer water for a sealift event. It could’ve been placebo but I felt like it made a difference. I doubt the other teammates tried it, but we all succeeded.
The study that they did basically shows that anywhere from 5-30 reps per set had the best outcome for short & long term, you can go higher for sure but keep in mind that the recovery may take you more than just 2-3 days due to muscle fatigue & in some rare cases you could experience nausea & vomiting or loss of consciousness during the workout, and that’s due to high accumulation of acid lactate.
@@brain.mindset Yeah, I recently went down to a session per week so you got a point there. No issues with nausea or light headedness for me and lactic acid exposure is suspected to be anabolic. CO² exposure is also angiogenic, meaning better blood supply (promotes recovery/anabolism) and vascularity (aesthetic). Lactic acid metabolism prolongs CO² exposure as it's basically a metabolic buffer.
Can you quantify your “good results”. The sort of issues with your comment is its 1) anecdotal whereas data is based on averages 2) may be based on your perception, which *may* not be realistic 3) may be contributive to other variables unknown 4) the good Dr is referring specifically to sarcoplasmic hypertrophy and you didn’t define what you specifically mean by “good results” (there are other benefits outside of sarcoplasmic hypertrophy to more endurance based resistance training). 5) 5-30 reps was the recommended range per set, not per exercise.
@@319jmp 185cm 95kg with abs casting shadows in good lighting. Flexed left arm is 39cm circumference with tape pulled hard, elbow 90 degrees and no pump. I'm a rightie. Low enough arm fat to clearly see indent between bicep and tricep on the inside. Objective enough?
Are either of you a high-level strength athlete? Obviously not. Yes, we train 5-6x per week. Take five seconds to look up what the top level olympic weightlifters are doing and you may learn something.
@@sandrost4243 yes I am. And yes I train 5-6 times a week. BUT THERES NO WAY IM SQUATTING (AT A STRENGTH REP/INTENSITY RANGE EVERY DAY). It's simply not possible from a recovery standpoint when you're moving heavy weight. You're comparing a technical sport with submaximal lifts (weightlifting) to a strength sport with maximal lifts (powerlifting). You can do Olympic lifts everyday because it's mostly skill and not at the intensity of a powerlift. Because they are submaximal lifts. (Take it up with physics. I don't make the rules). Just deadlifted yesterday and at that intensity there's no way I can deadlift today or even squat or row today for that matter because there's no way you're recovered the next day after doing a top set of 5 at 90% or higher and then back down sets. You're comparing apples and oranges. We're talking about true strength training here.
@@BigBusiness02 I respectfully disagree, I was an elite powerlifter for 15 years, I trained 5x per week, 3-4x squat, 2x deadlift, 4x bench, plus supplement lifts that very closely resembled the competition lifts. I agree with your point about the olympic competition lifts, but Olympic lifters also squat nearly every workout. That's what I switched to, I never squat less than 4x per week. And it's pretty heavy, 80-90% range. Look at how Boris Sheiko trained his top powerlifters, they trained 6x per week, i.e., Andrey Belyaev, same with Sivokon. They were deadlifting 2-3x per week. I would agree, if I deadlift, I'm not deadlifting the next day, but I could easily do straight-leg deadlifts or snatch deadlifts, etc. However with squat, there is absolutely no doubt you can squat the next day, and the next day and the one after that. Thousands of athletes do this every week. It's possible your work capacity is low, or you just never pushed your volume. However, I'm not dogging you, if you are getting stronger doing what you are doing, then that's awesome, keep it going. I'm also not saying everyone should train this way, only that tons of people do and it is very possible to train this much and recover if your training loads are planned out intelligently.
could somebody help me out? On the one hand he says zone 2 doesn't affect hypertrophy and then he goes on to say in concurrent training their strength and muscle gains is compromised by the cardio. How does that make any sense??!
Dr. Andy Galpin, one of the top exercise scientists out there, right up there with Dr. Mike Isratel. Sorry if he doesn't pass the "eye test", but this guy is highly-respected in the field, has worked with some top-level athletes. If you want more information, he's been on Joe Rogan before, it's a great episode.

Thanks
how many sets tho. lets say 2 sets warm up and then 3-4 real workout per training to gain strength?
Endurance training takes a toll on strength and hypertrophy.

Not all heroes wear capes
I learned all of this thru trial and error and thru various coaches over 15 years and here this guy goes giving it all away. Kids got it good these days
Most of the kids don't look at training videos.
They just go to the gym and do silly stuff.
And an experienced older guy like me tell them how to train with mind and body.
But most of them are just ignorant and don't want someone to tell them what to do.
In the end, they all train wrong and too heavy with no technique.
I tell them all the time to look at video's like Mike Mentzer, who shows them how to build muscle with short and hard training.
They just don't want to learn so I let them do their shit and I do mine.
@@Kwarkiemodo This has been my experience as well
Even if you are right, That's still a good thing.

All of you older guys out here, please don't stop giving out advices becaise some ignored your words. People like me, who would gladly listen to you guys with more experience still exists and they would love if someone tried to mentor them through thick and thin. Althou you should be more directive towards the right path and info rather than going through every info on your own because information these days is readlity available if one makes effort but it is the path and which one to takes that needs to be talked about...
Much love,
Main Takeaways:
1. The speaker emphasizes the importance of exercise selection for strength training. Exercises should have a full range of motion, not induce injury, and balance different movement patterns (e.g., upper body press, upper body pull, lower body hinge, and lower body press).
2. Intensity is crucial for strength development. Higher threshold motor neurons need to be activated by challenging the muscles to produce more total force. Low repetition ranges (2 to 4 reps) with high rest intervals (2 to 4 minutes) are recommended.
3. Breathing strategies during resistance training can vary depending on the individual and the type of exercise. Maintaining intra-abdominal pressure (bracing) is essential. One common approach is to exhale on the concentric (lifting) phase and inhale on the eccentric (lowering) phase.
4. For endurance training, exercises that minimize eccentric landing are recommended to avoid excessive muscle damage. Activities like cycling, swimming, and rowing are examples of low eccentric load exercises.
5. Combining strength training with endurance training (concurrent training) does not compromise endurance gains but may slightly reduce strength and muscle growth improvements.
6. Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) can be used as a supplement to delay fatigue during intense workouts. Starting with a lower dose (e.g., half a teaspoon) is recommended.
7. Creatine monohydrate is highly recommended as a versatile and effective supplement for various aspects of physical health and performance, including muscle development, neurological benefits, and potential mental health associations.
Thank you
A very concise list!!!

This is how I trained for many years, I have no shoulder cartridge left. Hypertrophy focused training only considers muscular failure and recovery, it doesn't consider joint stress and recovery requirements.
Did you have a lot of tendonitis and/or joint pain through the years? I'm trying to avoid this for myself.
@DuncanL7979 Not enough to indicate change was needed. Most of my lifting related joint damage was from doing a shoulder day between push and pull days - 72 hr recovery for each means you do each of these twice a week. I should have eliminated shoulder day to allow for joint recovery and avoided straight bar benching.
@DuncanL7979
Read Scott Hogan's book, 'Built from Broken' to learn how to train in order to avoid this very pitfall...
I.e., systematically ruining your connective tissue, over time, by ignoring the conditioning and preservation of these tissues, in a training protocol that focuses solely on building & strengthening muscle tissue (while ignoring connective tissue needs).
Push, Pull, Legs has worked wonders for me. Though my metabolism is rather absurd. My muscles recover within a day or two, however my nervous system takes about a day or two longer to recover.
i think mentzer was right
Is the recovery per muscle group OR general exercise e.g. if you do push today, pull tomorrow and legs the day after. Is this still optimal?
@@mortaldao8044 per muscle group, by the next push day about 48 hours later.
i switch from push pull legs to day 1 legs (gets the hormones going for the rest of the week ) then back day 2, core and shoulders / chest / arms (tri and bicep) and it adds mass when I break it out more
@@taefithendo My thoughts as well: Give each muscle group 48hrs pending soreness for a rest day.
AthleneX recommends a rest day in between each push/pull/leg.
The body is amazing, but I am thinking about how practical it is for the body to be recovering from one exercise while also trying to overcompensate (hypertrophy) from the previous.
I think we really need to hone in on our sleep, diet and macro's to ensure we're getting the full ROI from each workout session if it is back-to-back.
The research you typically see on recovery of muscles is done on beginners (less than 2 years of serious training).
A beginner isn’t strong enough to tax much of anything, their coordination and cns level is in optimized. This is why their muscles can recover in 2-3 days.
It’s been shown in advanced lifters, it can take well over a week for their muscles to recover.
For strength he says you could train same muscle group every day. I've found with my training over 45 years exact opposite was the case. I was weakest at each muscle group twice a week in my teens, stronger when I went to once every 7 in my 20's, then stronger again once every 9 in my 30's, then stronger again at once every 10-12 in my 40's. Now in my late 50's I"m lifting the heaviest I've ever lifted in my life at each muscle group once every 14 days. Basically every 10 years each time I started getting burnt out injuries sick of training etc the only way for me to get stronger and feel young again was to add more rest days.
He’s referring to training solely for strength (which means eliminating the eccentric part of the rep)
So if doing a deadlift for example… you pick up the weight and literally drop it. Zero controlling the negatives
This is how Olympic lifters can train everyday and not add muscle size

This is just a clip from a podcast series. The series is amazing and I highly reccomend it, Hunerman Lab, Andrew Galpin series
FYI, tripling your lifts would mean a 200% increase, not 300%
100 x 200% is 200, 100 x 300% is 300. 100 x 3 is 300. Just saying
But a 300% increase is an addition not a multiplication
@@Victor-ji1rz100% of my lift is 100lbs one rep max, later I can lift 200lbs I just increased my lift by double. Now this would be 200% of my original effort. Then later I can lift 300lbs and now I can lift 300% of my original effort. It’s not like a stock. If I put my money on the table and nothing happens there is no gain. If my money now doubles I’m only up 100%. With lifting weight one could say my one reps max is 100% of my effort. We don’t use a base line of rest to claim this is my 100% effort level.
This is a language thing, say you're lifting 10 pounds if you then work up to 30 you've seen a 200% increase but 30 pounds is 300% of 10 pounds

isn’t the stomach full of acid. how does drinking baking soda make your body alkaline if once it gets into your stomach it quickly neutralizes?
because these people don't know chemistry. baking soda is weak alkaline. stomach acid is HCL strong acid.
No food can change your PH. that is another knowledge that people don't pay attention to chemistry in school. Your Your body regulates the right PH by a buffer, you do not change the PH. Nonsense circulation, have no chemistry or biology.

This was an excellent conversation.
This gentleman is well equipped regurgitating Mark Rippetoe’s Starting Strength Methodologies. Well explained.
most these guys have NOTHING new,
this has nothing to do with Mark`s training practices lmao what are you talking about dude.
If, for strenght, we can train everysingle day, how about the ligaments nor tendons? They recover longer than the muscles... And using very big weight, you kinda put a lot of pressure on the ligaments and tendons.
Volume is the key. With increased frequency and high intensity, volume has to be very low. I think when I was doing this for squats I worked up to a quick heavy single daily. After 2 months my squat max went up 75lbs. I was doing very quick, speed squats with 475lbs. I was around 176-180lbs depending on the day. Just pick one exercise to do this with, and you need to have really good form in it. I would not use deadlifts, I tried this and got my butt kicked even with 70% of 1RM.
Training with full range of motion strengthens the tendons. Also the faster you lift the more it trains the tendons while slow eccentrics trains more the muscle. Training reverse motions strengthens the tendons such as nordic curls if you squat alot
No one (typically)has enough proper rest to strength train everyday the same body part.

Very good info. I didn't know about Baking Soda use for pre-workout but I have been utilizing Creatine Monohydrate + D-Ribose as well as L-Arginine, Citrulline Malate and Beta Alanine. I was using those when I used to do more weight lifting and strength training but lately all I do is train on the heavy bag and I could tell the difference of intensity between taking them and not.

Be careful with baking soda. Benefits are very limited and potential for serious GI distress is very high. Lots of research published on this. Don’t just believe what you hear on YT.
@@marcdaniels9079 For sure. My motto is listen but take it with a grain of salt while you do your own due diligence.
All this is really great info for someone who is trying to figure out their programming. Others have heard these tips from other strength athletes and coaches, and have had to play with them to figure this out. Some of these ideas I have seen from Mark Rippetoe, and others are from a handful of youtubers who focus on strength training. The baking soda trick is something I never heard of.
Makes sense training everyday for strength. In HS I really adhered to squats, since I never had a big upper frame/strength. I squatted everyday in weight training class. I was able to squat 425 lbs max @ 115 lb body weight. I never got close to twice my weight on my other maxes, except a 250 deadlift.
Hey can you please tell how did you trained, like how many sets everyday for how many days, rep ranges etc,
@janakibarik6800
Well back in HS it was just a normal 6-10 reps per set, 3-5 sets per day, and 2-3 workouts each week, resting as needed per week, for each major compound lift. Then 15-20 reps for smaller concentrated muscle groups. You do this for 3-4 months with progressive overload, then push for your one rep max lift for each lift after the 3-4 months.
So 5 foot 2 height?
Interesting bit on baking soda. I’ve been wondering about the effect the high ph in government tap water has on our bodies. Can’t feed tap water to plants, the high Ph keeps the plant from being able to absorb nutrients, doesn’t matter how many nutrients are available. The chlorine kills the bacteria in the dirt which renders the soil toxic and inert.
Rainwater is generally neutral, i have to make sure all plants get watered with a Ph less than 6.5-7 or, the die slowly despite having all available and needed nutrition. Our bodies may work similar by the sounds of it.

every body recovers different depends on age and what training you are doing
Zone 2 training is in fact highly recommended for ALL athletes including strength athletes BECAUSE such training proliferates new mitochondria which are our energy producing engines. More mitochondria = more energy and it also optimizes metabolism (a foundation of health) as does muscle gain from strength training. The two are a winning duo important for strength athletes as much as strength training is for endurance athletes. One cannot be a complete athlete unless both systems of training are applied, along with optimal nutrition and rest of course. Former professional cyclist here who went against my own coach’s advice not to strength train for years before it became “fashionable” nowadays.
Can't wait for my 330 Kg snatch!
For hypertrophy does this split work
Monday: Upper body push
Tuesday: Lower push/pull
Wednesday: Upper body pull
Thursday: off
Friday: off
Saturday: Upper body push
Sunday: Lower push/pull
Monday: Upper body pull
Tuesday: off
Wednesday: off
Thursday: Upper body push
Friday: Lower body push/pull
Saturday: Upper body pull
Sunday: off
And so on. For hypertrophy we can do anywhere from 5 to 30 reps while focusing on intensity? And if you want to combine with anaerobic training you can push or pull a sled, row or walk uphill every day?
One thing i use in gym is what i call pyramid training. Start 40reps down to 5 and then back up again, as decrease reps i go higher weight. When at lowest i maximize the weight to the point of failure. I've been training for 15years now and by far this has helped me the most with muscle building, its taxing on the body but nice.
vowwww..simple answers great questions too much clarity ..tx both
In my opinion, building muscle if only look at weight lifting is the volume of workout not so much about how heavy to lift. Target 10% increase everyweek, this method has helped me a lot.😊
18 minutes, wheres the protocol?
At the end they were talking about baking soda. One thing they didn't mention is your choice of baking soda, baking soda is contaminated with anti caking agent, aluminium. Find a pure one, Arm & Hammer, or Mckenzis Sodium Bicarbonate.

"Professional athletes train everyday" i agree but he didn't say if they use drugs or not.since with drugs you recover a way faster and are able to train on daily basis and 95% of pro athletes are using drugs if they are really pro
I’d say 95% are using recreational drugs but I don’t think the PED usage is that high. I do agree though that there are way too many athletes that do PEDs and using the phrase “athletes train everyday” in your argument, isn’t a very credible source.
The other thing is genetics. They also play a huge role in recovery as not everyone is built like the best athletes in the world. I believe steroids are used a lot but not up to the number that you describe. Genetics make everything extremely unfair, especially with steroids since they only give you the “good” benefits if your genetics are already optimal.
That being said, using athletes to describe proper training is not very credible and doesn’t give the general audience any of the “reality” that they will be facing when they try to do the same thing. I got a spinal chord injury from having that mindset and now I’m learning that there are certain limitations that I have, that are unique to me and have to be addressed and requires a much different training design then other people and/or professional athletes
slightly confused by this - they both talk and agree that cardio training has no negative effects on muscle hypertrophy, yet Galpin proceeds to discuss The Interference Effect in which they discovered the combined group had decreased muscle hypertrophy (strength markers) , but not V02 (endurance markers). So what is the verdict does cardio training affect strength training negatively or not..?
Mark Ripatoe’s “Starting Strength” does this. No wonder it’s the best results I’ve had.
Starting strength is good for strength, but it’s not the best for bodybuilding.
You will build muscle on it, but it’s very disproportionate and many areas will be lacking. I would know because it added 2 inches to each of my legs but everything else barely grew even though I got strong.
Starting strength is also terrible because it forces you to use squat bench deadlifts. You don’t need go do these exercises.
Mike Mentzer had this all figured out back in the 1970's, and was ignored by the More is Better crowd. Intensity over volume, with sufficient rest to grow.
Why stop the video at, what I thought to be, the most important part? In any case, thank you, all round a great video.
Weird, didn't hear anything in the convo to take my bench to 795, lol! Such clickbait buillshit.
He states that you can lift heavy more frequently with lower muscle soreness, but he didn’t address central nervous system fatigue that comes with training in the lower rep ranges. Performing heavy squats and deadlifts every day would cause some serious fatigue.
Knew it was creatine. It's good stuff.
Pyramid lifting, helped me out with some strength, but I’ve never been strong. I just have tremendous endurance. My biggest drawback when I use to train was Recovery. My body was always running. 5 to 6 hr sleep per night. I couldn’t get 8 to 10 hr.
Low reps f your joints and tendons. I want to be lifting into my 50s
I think speed of reps for joint and tendon longevity.
The substitles kinda sucks, please work on them 🙏🏿
If you are going to drink baking soda I hope your gym has toilets close.
Ive done it for heartburn when i didnt have any tums, it was gross but no side effects. Im more concerned about the dose though. Everything else ive seen says to take 19 grams! so i cant see half a tablespoon doing much.
Running (although not eccentric compared to the ones mentioned) can strengthen the bones and especially the knee's, balance is key of course, but avoiding running isn't the answer for holistic health and strong ligaments/joints/bones.

Wtf. Says in one sentence zone 2 cardio will not affect hypertrophy in any way then says in the study endurance work affected hypertrophy and strength gains🤔
Endurance work would be considered more intense than zone 2 cardio. Ex., running and jogging. Zone 2 cardio is more a brisk walk. A general rule of thumb is when doing you're cardio, if you can't do it only breathing through your nose you've gone beyond zone 2.

Exactly. They didn't make any distinction here between zone 2 and higher level endurance training. I'm still unclear. It actually seems like the video was edited at the point after mentioning the study and a bit was cut out.

Tell a powerlifter they don't need a tremendous amount of rest after squats or deadlifts and they're going to laugh in your face. Some strength athletes don't recover from deadlifts for 14 days. I'm not the strongest person in the world and I still can't train deadlifts more than once per week. And squat EVERY DAY at the intensity it takes to build strength?! This is laughable.
All due respect, but this is not good information. National level powerlifter here, totaled 'elite', won state and national titles over 15 years. You sound like one of those "my CNS is fried bro" type of guys. 14 days is absolutely ridiculous. What is so special about the deadlift that you cannot train it more than once every week? If you can't deadlift more than once a week, you need to improve your work capacity because you are just not a well-conditioned athlete and your programming is likely trash. Look at the top IPF lifters, they are all squatting 2-3x per week and deadlifting 2x per week. I trained squat 3-4x per week and deadlifted 2x, benched 4x and totaled Elite. Olympic lifters squat 4-5x per week. I have no idea where you got your information, you sound like those old geared powerlifters from the late 90s and early 2000s. Look at the science and what the top guys are doing, high frequency is what are going to find.

@@oa2621 you're not understanding what IIII said. I didn't say every rep is maxed out. I said Olympic lifts are submaximal. That's two different things. Olympic lifting isn't strength training.

I'm not recovering from a 470 lb deadlift in less than a week to be able to do it again. 470 would be glued to the floor on the second session. Just like a if a man who deadlifts 800 pounds wouldn't be able to do so twice a week. Technique and accessory deadlift for the second session? Sure. But heavy deadlifting twice a week? No way. Nervous system won't recover enough. Once you progress to the point where the relative intensity of those lifts are high enough, you're not performing deadlifts everyday. Bench and squat are absolutely doable 2/week at that intensity (squat still depends on your leverages as lifters with long limbs will need a lot more recovery do to having done more work) But deadlift? Absolutely not.
I am 62 years old. I do a daily training with weights where army, twops, triceps, shoulders, I make funds and squats and I walk about 2 to 3 km per day. But I do not take nigun supplement, creatine could help me increase my muscle mass? But I would like to increase my muscle mass that I can't increase. And aotra question. If I wanted to add any furza training as explained here, exercises of 3 to 5 repetitions with greater weight, could it do so for example 2 days a week and the rest safely doing it as until now? Thank you so much
Who is Anatoly?
cleaner
Look up anatoly the cleaner😂
Can’t weight to squat 720, bench 480 and deadlift 900kg. Thanks to this protocol.
Replace "pound" To "kg"
Click Bait.
Thanks for saving me 20 min
tyvm - great content
This guy never gives up..Proper bore now
who is a bore and why

Awesome information
Hey let this guy talk for 20 min and hear nothing of importance and 90% of people are like ”mezzzzmerizing”. Dr BS.
I tried the baking soda in seltzer water for a sealift event. It could’ve been placebo but I felt like it made a difference. I doubt the other teammates tried it, but we all succeeded.
As someone who has had really good results going very high volume (90 to 150 reps per exercise in a session), 5-30 seems like a very dubious claim.
The study that they did basically shows that anywhere from 5-30 reps per set had the best outcome for short & long term, you can go higher for sure but keep in mind that the recovery may take you more than just 2-3 days due to muscle fatigue & in some rare cases you could experience nausea & vomiting or loss of consciousness during the workout, and that’s due to high accumulation of acid lactate.
@@brain.mindset Yeah, I recently went down to a session per week so you got a point there. No issues with nausea or light headedness for me and lactic acid exposure is suspected to be anabolic. CO² exposure is also angiogenic, meaning better blood supply (promotes recovery/anabolism) and vascularity (aesthetic). Lactic acid metabolism prolongs CO² exposure as it's basically a metabolic buffer.
Can you quantify your “good results”. The sort of issues with your comment is its 1) anecdotal whereas data is based on averages 2) may be based on your perception, which *may* not be realistic 3) may be contributive to other variables unknown 4) the good Dr is referring specifically to sarcoplasmic hypertrophy and you didn’t define what you specifically mean by “good results” (there are other benefits outside of sarcoplasmic hypertrophy to more endurance based resistance training). 5) 5-30 reps was the recommended range per set, not per exercise.
Buddy 90 reps is insane
@@319jmp 185cm 95kg with abs casting shadows in good lighting. Flexed left arm is 39cm circumference with tape pulled hard, elbow 90 degrees and no pump. I'm a rightie. Low enough arm fat to clearly see indent between bicep and tricep on the inside.
Objective enough?
It's ok to alternate time of day. Morning one day then, the evening after the 48 hour window
lol strength training a muscle every day sure
Absolute bs
Are either of you a high-level strength athlete? Obviously not. Yes, we train 5-6x per week. Take five seconds to look up what the top level olympic weightlifters are doing and you may learn something.
@@sandrost4243 yes I am. And yes I train 5-6 times a week. BUT THERES NO WAY IM SQUATTING (AT A STRENGTH REP/INTENSITY RANGE EVERY DAY). It's simply not possible from a recovery standpoint when you're moving heavy weight. You're comparing a technical sport with submaximal lifts (weightlifting) to a strength sport with maximal lifts (powerlifting). You can do Olympic lifts everyday because it's mostly skill and not at the intensity of a powerlift. Because they are submaximal lifts. (Take it up with physics. I don't make the rules). Just deadlifted yesterday and at that intensity there's no way I can deadlift today or even squat or row today for that matter because there's no way you're recovered the next day after doing a top set of 5 at 90% or higher and then back down sets. You're comparing apples and oranges. We're talking about true strength training here.
@@BigBusiness02 I respectfully disagree, I was an elite powerlifter for 15 years, I trained 5x per week, 3-4x squat, 2x deadlift, 4x bench, plus supplement lifts that very closely resembled the competition lifts. I agree with your point about the olympic competition lifts, but Olympic lifters also squat nearly every workout. That's what I switched to, I never squat less than 4x per week. And it's pretty heavy, 80-90% range. Look at how Boris Sheiko trained his top powerlifters, they trained 6x per week, i.e., Andrey Belyaev, same with Sivokon. They were deadlifting 2-3x per week. I would agree, if I deadlift, I'm not deadlifting the next day, but I could easily do straight-leg deadlifts or snatch deadlifts, etc. However with squat, there is absolutely no doubt you can squat the next day, and the next day and the one after that. Thousands of athletes do this every week. It's possible your work capacity is low, or you just never pushed your volume. However, I'm not dogging you, if you are getting stronger doing what you are doing, then that's awesome, keep it going. I'm also not saying everyone should train this way, only that tons of people do and it is very possible to train this much and recover if your training loads are planned out intelligently.
@@sandrost4243 powerlifting is different. sure squat every day is a thing among some circles but it's mostly just fluff. no one at the top does it
could somebody help me out? On the one hand he says zone 2 doesn't affect hypertrophy and then he goes on to say in concurrent training their strength and muscle gains is compromised by the cardio. How does that make any sense??!
@@Maplewalnuht ok thanks.. i didn’t get that from what he said but if thats right thats great
Who is this guy? He looks neither strong, nor experienced in hypertrophy...
Just look him up.
@@duartelucas5746 I did and my comment remains..
Dr. Andy Galpin, one of the top exercise scientists out there, right up there with Dr. Mike Isratel. Sorry if he doesn't pass the "eye test", but this guy is highly-respected in the field, has worked with some top-level athletes. If you want more information, he's been on Joe Rogan before, it's a great episode.
Ya a phd lol
Check out Ussain Bolt's coach. He'd be lucky to do 10 seconds for 40m.
Brilliant podcast
