    Thanks for all you do Mr. Helms. Been following your information a lot lately by happenstance of seeing you cameo in Ogus and McCarthy discussion videos. I must say your videos have cleared up so much unknown that I didn't know and have lifted the veil of "nutritional and physiological uncertainty" out from over my eyes. Best of all, you freely give this advice. Thanks for the life changing information once again!

    The original Borg RPE scale is 6-20 but that is representative of Heart Rate, 60-200 BPM, resistance training RPE doesn't need to be related to HR, so it's better on a more user friendly system

    I like reverse pyramids, you can get a bit of a PAP effect, and similar principles, just need a system to decide on how many drops, when to progress etc.

  • @Team3DMJ
    @Team3DMJ  11 лет назад

    Depends on how you warm up...normally I would say work sets, but some people when going heavy do a lot of warm up sets and some have a training effect, so I would count all "effective reps" in that case so maybe something like everything over 60%-70% of 1RM...

  • @johnnysatty

    Eric, where do you think reverse pyramids come into play, example 4 reps at a 10 scale, then dropping 20% for 6-8 then dropping 20% for 10-15. Would this be close to best of both worlds? Currently I do one heavy day one lighter. Best channel on the whole RUclips 's!

  • @justingarssacoche
    @justingarssacoche 7 лет назад

    Also another question about auto-regulation : You test you rep max at the begining of a workout to see how you
    feel and then proceed to base the folowing sets off that RM of that day right ? Well say I can usually bench 315 x 3 , come in a day feeling like shit , hit 315 x 1 RPE 10 . How do I adjust ? In this video , you take you estimated 3rm , do two reps . If it felt like an RPE 9 , as you expected , then continue with a 3%-7% reduction til the reduced weight feels as heavy as the non-reduced weight . I find this similar to using 10rm to do sets of 8 or a 7rm to do sets of 5 , to make sure you're not going to failure on the first set , or simply using a ligther weight than you know you can do for X sets of Y reps , and doing an amrap on the last set .

    Eric, are you doing a vid about progression on RPE and/or different schemes for workouts during a week, for example squatting 3x a week ?

  • @Team3DMJ
    @Team3DMJ  11 лет назад

    I like technical failiure appropriate and safe for the load you use...pretty common until you are very advanced to get a bit of technical errors at maximal loads, and just so long as they are safe (thoracic vs lumbar rounding for example) I let it go.

  • @bigbobabc123
    @bigbobabc123 11 лет назад

    he looks better than 99% here because of his genetics, not because he knows 100x more than everyone else here. also this is assuming everyone else works as hard as he does, as you have to admit chris jones is dedicated and committed to training (not contest prep, lol).

  • @Mr_SamuelAdam
    @Mr_SamuelAdam 11 лет назад +1

    Is 30-90 reps per week or per session? How many reps per session in a full body workout? 30-40 reps per body part

  • @justingarssacoche
    @justingarssacoche 7 лет назад

    Can you do the auto-regulation with any rep range ? example : Take a 10 rep estimated max and do 8 or 9 reps, reduce weight by X% , do sets of 8 or 9 til the reduced weight feels starts getting close to an RPE10? And how is this any better than just taking my 10RM, and doing sets of 8 with it til 8 becomes close to failure ? Or doing 5x5 with 8rm and doing an amrap at the last set ? I basically do this

  • @trevorhunter6646
    @trevorhunter6646 8 лет назад

    ok been carrying around this question for months after watching both video series on nutrition and training.
    been training for about 15 years but only the past couple have I been getting into the science and separating the myths from fact.
    Eric you have reviewed volume several times throughout several different videos but I'm still a little confused. Let's say your doing a chest day and typically your going to do a flat press, an Incline press, a flat fly and an Incline fly. I have always done at least 4 sets anywhere from 6 to 12 reps. the goal sometimes is strength obviously on the lower rep range and sometimes it's hypertrophy higher end rep range. Here is the question... in several of your videos you discuss your total volume in reps to remain for the experienced body builder between 50-90reps per body part. if I were to do 2 of those exercises listed above for chest at 10 reps (which you referenced in the volume pyramid video as being optimal for minimal injuries and still maintaining gains "hypertrophy") I would have to stop one set into my 3rd exercise, not feeling like I fully engaged my chest. So when it comes to volume, am I extremely over training or am i missing something?

  • @FabriceTheArtist
    @FabriceTheArtist 11 лет назад

    is it common to be able to do 3-5 sets of 5 with a weight that is a 10 on rpe? for examle, today i did 285 on bench press for 3 reps. I wasnt able to get 4 reps and i wouldnt have been able to get 3 reps with 5 more pounds, yet i hit 4 sets of 5 before i felt i wouldn't be able to do another set of 3 with 285. Then, i dropped to 275 and did 2 more sets of 3 with one rep in the tank on both sets.

    They're not, they don't advocate training to failure anymore and nutritional viewpoints are better suited towards naturals (POG advocates dirty bulking and claims going beastmode in the gym can negate the effects), twins are nowhere near worse.

  • @Barjozz
