Not really. Yeah you will get good results aesthetically. But your training your mind and muscle connection into doing just bare minimum. Maybe good for bodybuilding. But other things. Your training to quit before it gets tough.
@@vagabond4576 I don't think we've been listening to the same video. Greg picked on nuances Jeff said, but when all was said and done both Jeff and and Greg said "Take at least one set to complete failure".
Kinda, like the mixing of both of these takes is necessary. Training intensity should be based on how far along you are, but I believe even beginners could massly benefit from training to failure on most sets. Flawless technique should be a given but when you reach failure, try push past with cheating then. This I think, is mixing the best of both worlds with high intensity but science based techniques that will ultimately grow the muscle.
I took a recent bench press set to absolute mechanical failure. I was pissing and shidding, popped a blood vessel, nose bled, I puked, my arms folded inward, bar fell on my chest, and I seized on the ground for 2 minutes after. BARELY level 2.
Serious talk though, bench press failure feels like you are going to die. I once got cramps in my quads and calves and i was thinking if dropping the bar on my neck was the better outcome.
@@AfifFarhatiYou will know that you've reached level 4 when you are greeted by loved ones that have passed on. From there you either stay on the other side or wake up from a 6 month coma.
breaking news: Greg will be visiting my Croatia. Cant wait to see Greg. I ll take him to all my cat colonies and together we ll do some TNR. Then he promised to sponsor land for my shelter...❤ In return I ll give him 11 doses of Pfizer covid flu jab.
Great video. I have recently found out great workout plan, and I started following it (I got it from OnlyMeal). I'm 240 pounds at the moment. I started my weight loss journey at 318. I also improved my habits... now, I drink more water per day, sleep at least 7h, doing cold shower each morning. Thank you for the videos Greg, they are so useful!
The snake oil claims aren't from people doubting that you actually put turkesterone in your pills, it is about whether turkesterone actually has the benefits that you claim.
Looking at comments sections I’ve noticed anti science based people tend to attack and insult pro science based while the pro science based are more respectful. Kinda odd the people calling others children are the ones acting childish
I want to thank you for your helpful videos Coach Greg. 2 years ago post shoulder surgery I was a lazy lumpy 5’9” 90,178.4 grams 30+ % BF. Now I’m a lean 68,038.8 grams and fluctuate between 10-12% BF.
I just watched a video of Arnold Schwarzenegger and he said he cheated on the last few sets and encourages everyone to cheat a little so you can get the maximum gains out of your set.
Coach Greg, you are spot on. I'm 61, been training since 14. Everyone's different and train with differing intensity. Some go harder than others. If for instance you're someone who is able to really push yourself with intensity you cannot do high volume. You won't make any gains. Others who dont seem to have that gene certainly benefit from higher volume. It is the intensity of the intention that causes the body to make physical adaptations. No intensity, no gains. Too much intensity, no gains. Each individual needs to learn what works for them and not mimic others but learn from others.
after certain time and top notch nutrition and recovery everyone will naturally stop making gains there is ceiling you will never get past through also you wont grow muscle after certain point no matter what u do unless you go enhanced route which makes no sense fi u are not making living because of it maybe TRT if your test starts to go down naturally after certain age but i agree with you you will find after decade of regular lifting what works best for you usually
Greg literally got me into duolingo today. I almost got to the top of the leaderboard when i messed up the same question for 2 times in a row and failed the test that has the time limit. I punched my desk so hard it almost broke (i am usually quite a calm person)
He's talking about the stretch when he says the eccentric is the most muscle building part, not how slow you do it. So on the eccentric you want to stretch the muscle as much as possible for the most growth.
Good point on the volume. Ive been going to the gym for 3 months. The gym records every time you enter so its around 30 times ive gone. Been getting insane noob gains with the same approach as Greg is talking here, but theres absolutely no way that I can do 1 muscle group more than 7-8 sets a week. Fatigue murders me after shoulder day. Id have to not work hard in the gym to do 10 sets that Jeff is proposing.
Only thing I’ve ever disagreed with Coach Greg on are deload weeks. If you’re truly going harder than last time they’re an absolute necessity otherwise you WILL end up Luigiing your Mangione ☠️.
depends on your volume and the person, in fact a fair few variables. I train hard taking every set to at least failure and most beyond but I also use moderate and sometime high volume whilst doing so (16-20 sets per muscle per week), but then I have a high work capacity but I also adjust my frequency accordingly when doing so (sometimes only training every other day) so I work my split out so I dont need deloads. Im know where my threshold is where I'll start to redline so I stay just below that so can stay consistent with no need for deloads whilst also using moderate volume with high intensity and pushing myself hard
Agreed , but …Greg is taking to the masses. 99.9% of people who say they train hard don’t at all. They have not even come close to failure they hit hard work.
@@Fire91ful those are excuses , not everyone lets them happen. I have never had a holiday I didn’t work out on. Family …that’s just scheduling, sick take an Advil and a monster and get it
The point is you do not HAVE TO train to absolute failure to make gains. You can train between 3 and 0 RIR. You can have a progression where you start with 3RIR and then next week 2RIR and then next week one RIR and then week four is failure and then your fifth week is a deload. That is progressive overload, Greg and mitigates stress
First off, I like the fact you are not yelling as much. I am 60 years Old and all natural. I have been taking sets to failure since I started working out just before I turned 55. So, I have gained muscle and honesty feel better than when I was 30. Now, I mostly use bodyweight and weighted bodyweight. Dumbbells for isolations. The only sets I do not take to failure is weight bodyweight squats. Just to painful. So, maybe I am an outlier but, if I can go to failure from my mid 50's to 60....I see no problem. Thanks Greg Happy New Year.
Always enjoy the videos, Coach Greg. I'm glad you mentioned the part about not going as hard due to soreness. Some people don't take that into consideration and think a training session isn't valuable because they were too sore to push as hard as usual. I don't like too many rest days, so if I'm still sore i hit the gym to keep on routine, but don't push as hard.
I saw jeff‘s Video n he is saying: It doesnt matter How slow the negative is..AS LONG AS U CONTROL THE WEIGHT 😂❤ so there is nothing to discuss about… u r on the same side
I love how coach Greg just repeats the same thing said in the video he is reacting and just adds filler (harder than last time, turk, manlet and etc). But still I watch everything😂😂😂
My left ear enjoyed this video... Why is the volume balance so messed up? All the clips are balanced 50/50, but Greg talking is way louder on my left ear.
Stopped watching Greg months ago due to his grating voice and focus on drama with other podcasters. Not enough lifting content. Looks like it has been good for his ratings and 💵💵💵💵. However, not to my liking. Just dropped by to see if anything changed and sadly it hasn’t. Will g back to watching one of his rivals.
Greg spitting facts! He isn't trying to be sly and bull shit baffle you with manipulative science based crap studies... Greg is makes far greater sense.. I also agree with personal training experience.
My dad always says that swinging and lifting fast makes you look weak because it looks like lifting the weight is hard for you but do it slow and you look stronger
the point about slow negatives is exactly what Jeff is saying, he's saying you shouldn't drop the weight immediately after lifting, but lower it down in a 2-7 second negative. I think Greg misunderstood Jeff. also of course Jeff did not progress in 10 years, he's a natural who reached his naty potential, there's no going any further for him without steroids
I have been doing my reps with slow negatives for about a year, the last rep, i absolutely cheat the weight up as much as i can, and then i do the eccentric as slow as i possibly can, it feels like the muscle is ripping apart, amazing
I think form and technique are used too interchangeably sometimes. You can switch technique from full ROM to partials to go past failure. You shouldn't, however, sacrifice proper form. Form is for safety more than anything.
This is what it looks like when u have an argument with urself about something no one commented on in the first place to prove a point that no one asked for to boost ur self confidence because u think people don't like u...which makes u look insane and makes people not like u. Greg should take a much needed nap after his chaotic rant videos to save up energy for the next psychotic break he has.
Has nothing to do with the actual time in the eccentric. "Controlling" the eccentric is to able to keep mind muscle connection, aka "contracted muscles" , enabling the target muscle to receive stimulus on both concentric AND eccentric. Thus maximizing the effect of the movement. Not controlling the eccentric only means that the targeted muscle is released and relaxed. It is not receiving any stimulus on half of the movement and is not supporting that half. This will result in subpar technique along with a significantly increased risk of injury.
@@er1cmaurer just because you have no idea what "look amazing" means, doesn't mean Jeff's physique isn't impressive. You really think you can compare a natty with someone with a metric ton of steroids in his system? No wonder you follow Douchette.
@ yeah, it’s soooo hard to know what an amazing physique looks like. Jeff looks average for a guy whose whole existence is fitness. You know it,…stop the BS.
About lvl 4, had a dude spot me on 225 incline and i did 8, struggled pretty hard on last rep, and the dude said i could two more reps, knew he was a savage straight away.
This was really great . 52yo new subscriber, lifting 4ever. As Greg said, "why don't we just end it there, as you get closer to the failure you build more muscle."... I hear a lot of people say Jeff is such a nice guy. Cool, that's said, there's a lot of nice guys I'm not taking advice from.
Nobody mentioned that negatives especially on exercises you are poor will help you build rep count on the long term. I remember building reps on pull ups using negatives ONLY
I agreed with 100% of what you said until you talked about how many reps per body part, I think that's different for everyone. I do 8 Sets for chest, flat bench and incline, not including dips and I usually take one or two of those to absolute failure. I've tried 3 sets to failure and within a few minuets I feel like I have more in me. I think it may be different for enhanced lifters, otherwise I don't think naturally the body would let you use all of your muscle at one time.
Ive always used at least one of my working sets pushed to failure. And sometimes if there isnt any way i can get good reps out in that set, i would do a drop set to make up for thet set to reach failure. Provided that my form is good and there is 1-3 second negatives
The thing with Jeff is , it works for him but only for him / a small minority of people who are advanced lifters Most of the people in the gym will just use "reps in reserve" as a way to slack off , and not even push themselves to the muscle growth stimulus point. And let's be honest , I'm not laying down on the gym in THAT position (I'm sure yk which form I'm talking about) just to get 3% more gains.
Isk man 1-3 RIRis still pretty difficult, especially when you're training with very high volume to maximize hypertrophy (that's about 40 sets per week, about 12 sets per workout and about 3 times per week all of this per muscle group)
daddy greg could you do a video if the effects of coffee on metabolism and the performance enhancement it gives would still be effective albeit the caffeine tolerance of alertness is developed?

When was that even mentioned? You're just pulling that statement out of your ass.
The thing with Jeff is , it works for him but only for him / a small minority of people who are advanced lifters
Most of the people in the gym will just use "reps in reserve" as a way to slack off , and not even push themselves to the muscle growth stimulus point. And let's be honest , I'm not laying down on the gym in THAT position (I'm sure yk which form I'm talking about) just to get 3% more gains.
