Human beings are built to increase, to be re-productive, advance and always keep pushing the limits. Whether it is to build muscles, machines, wealth..you name it!
I think he was just making a point that you have to increase the effort. Could've very well said "increase the weight" instead. As far as I understand, that's the point of progressive overload
@@Aldo-lq8fd You're trying to miss the point. HIS point is there are many way to overload a muscle. You can do more reps. You can cut rest. You can slow the rep down. Adding weight is just one tool, not the only tool, to a wise man.
Bro when I started benching in march, I barely increased the bench weight by the weeks, doing ppl and High volume and barely reaching failure, sometimes could be the last set, once and I discovered Mike Mentzer and all the Heavy Duty world, my bench increased each week by 10 pounds each session hitting betwern 6-11 reps, by training between 72hrs each muscle group.
but if you wait 72 hours to train each muscle group, isn't that basically push pull legs? because let's say you do push on monday pull of Tuesday and legs on Wednesday and again push on Thursday that's 72 hours between push days
@@foxarium1577 No, that is exactly what you should avoid. If you train today and then tomorrow and day after tomorrow your body is so tired that it can't recover from the workout and you are digging yourself a hole from where you go no where. It doesn't matter if you train every day some other musle group. In every single exercise there are a lot of muscle evolved even though some more than the other. Try to do HIT training with every single set to failure, maximum 3 training sessions per week. But not forget to be very strict with your diet on days when you train as well when you rest, because the nutrients and recovery build muslce, exercise only stimulates the growth.
Training once every 3-5 days it almost feels like you're on steroids due to the insanely fast results you're getting compared to the broscience training method which what the majority does
Absolutely true. I cannot accept the fact that there are people foolish enough to disagree with H.I.T, its objectively the BEST way to grow, its based on logic, science and the objective truth. The majority of bodybuilders are still doing the foolish "2-3 hours a day 6 days a week" training method, that way of training is just based on bro-science and instinct. And if more is better, than why only train 2-3 hours? Why not train 10+ hours a day? If you think you need to train more than you're just simply not training hard enough. I suggest to adopt the mentality that you can never train too hard. That's why if intensity is at your max, 20-30 minutes a day every 3-5 days is plenty! If you're not training hard, you might as well just give it up, go to the Golf course and stop going to the Gym completely.
Absolutely. I did more than 1 year of 3 day full body per week. I never got past those newbie gains and plateaued for many months. Needless to say... my whole body was exhausted as hell. When I tried just a simple upper lower HIT, just once a week. (to failure of course) Monday - upper, friday - lower, I got crazy gains. I let my body rest even more days sometimes. I will adjust the training as time goes on, but it proved to me that training to failure and letting those body parts rest for a week or even more sometimes - works like a charm.
Motherfucker, I grew a third eyeball... ON my hairy fucking, bitch-ass tongue. Now I be seeing me a g-spot waterfall, when I be doin' the ol' "licky licky, puss puss" 🤯. For my life bruh 🤦🏻♂️. Shit's fucked up 🤷🏻♂️😒. I be getting them gains tho 😃.
so confusing I do, 10-12-15 reps per set, now do I have to do 20 reps per sets to grow? That’s so much reps for each set! Can someone highlighten me please ?
Mike said you can increase the weight as well. What matters is that you challenge yourself and grow stronger with every workout. Try to stay between the 6-10 rep range.
It is harder without a training partner and a training partner is recommended for best results but when you are on your own, you can “cheat” the weight up where possible and focus on slow and controlled negative. Also using static holds, pausing in the middle of a rep will increase intensity without the need of a spotter. 💪
If you're implying that the body requires a greater "threshold" of exercise volume to stimulate growth without steroids than it does with steroids, you are misunderstanding the nature of muscles. With or without steroids, muscles require high intensity muscular contraction to grow; the more of a muscle's fibers are forced to contract and fatigued in a workout, the more growth is stimulated. Volume as such cannot stimulate growth, only intensity can.
@Mantastic-ho3vm It is true, and you're pretty close. High intensity muscular contraction, not the volume (for example 1 rep) is the cause of growth stimulation. Read John Little's book Max Contraction Training. It's the logical consequence of that fact and the fact that every increase in intensity necessarily decreases the volume. He trained people doing 1 to 6 second fully contracted holds until failure on each exercise (and they grew, a lot)
This is the case for all things tho. Not just muscles. People are afraid to try things due to failure, but that’s how you grow as a person
💯
Facts!
I always stop when it gets inconvenient
@@badrrharrime and the boys train to minor discomfort😎💯
Remember guys, numbers are just guide and muscles can't count but only feel.

Well said.

Notice he didn't say you have to add weight to force growth.
He said increasing reps forces growth.
I think he was just making a point that you have to increase the effort. Could've very well said "increase the weight" instead. As far as I understand, that's the point of progressive overload
That's why people in prison do thousands of pushups and squats and get huge just by those?

Touche
There is actual no way to know what is the actual Capacity of a Person
Different people/body respond differently to the same test
True. But that's why we count our reps and sets. To see what we are capable of.
so confusing I do, 10-12-15 reps per set, now do I have to do 20 reps per sets to grow? That’s so much reps for each set! Can someone highlighten me please ?

Increase the weight
Does this work if you don't have a training partner? Like how can you push yourself without a spotter?

Only two comments here.
Plus steroids
Lol....STEROIDS
And if this guy is the example then add to the reps roids roids and more roids 👍🤣
Garreth...or GROWTH
I am going to start drinking more Perrier
Maybe a line of meth before?? Right Mike Mentzner???🤔
