I’ve had this problem for years. It’s mental. I believed that I had to literally annihilate my body on a daily basis to get results. As I look back, that was so counterproductive. I was beat to crap, sore and fatigued which caused me to lose my motivation. I’ve recently been following Marcus and became intrigued on his training philosophy. The way he trains and explains how the human body works makes total sense. I’ve been following his programs recently and the outcome has been nothing short of amazing. He is definitely on to something.
Great advice that I also give to all my clients! You don’t keep to push yourself hard every single time, but just enough some of the time. Great show guys 👌
Now that I'm in my 60s Ive been thinking more about this. When I was younger it was just balls to the wall. Now if Im deadlifting to the point i can hardly breath Im starting to think i might have a hearr attack!
Conjugate method is supposed to rotate through 3 weeks or more. 1 week generally isn't enough time to adapt to a single movement. Also, conjugate method cycles through similar movement patterns. Example: substituting wide-grip bench press for close-grip bench press, or pause bench, etc. There's no correlation between a kettlebell swing and a handstand push-up.
I did that for 4 years straight and only got minimum results, even being in a calorie surplus and keeping my gym time 45-55 min long, working a body part 1 time a week, I would be sore for 3-6 days after, I talked to my friends and coworkers that went to prison, and I became a correctional officer myself, I changed my routine to what the inmates were doing, I’ve gotten better results in 4 months doing 60-70% 20 min to 35 min long intensity working out same thing 5 days a week, then changing body part every week,
I started lifting weights at 14 years old, I always did the bro split, Monday chest, Tuesday legs, Wednesday delts/traps, Thursday back, Friday arms, I got minimum gains for years, I looked like a soft powerlifter, I did that routine till I was 27, I was getting stronger and adding weight on everything, but just looked soft, even though I changed workouts, every 7-8 months, I would be sore for 3-7 days after working out, legs I would be sore till next week, chest I’d be sore for 4 days, but then I started working at a prison, the inmates looked like gorillas, they said the point is to get blood into the muscle and stop, don’t over do it, I always thought working out everyday was over training, I thought to myself man, how do people work out legs 2/3 times a week, I can’t get off the toilet, now that I’ve been doing the less intensity but more frequently, I see a big difference, I wish i knew that when I was younger, basically waisted my entire teens and 20s working out wrong
I feel and learned now a days that what you eat is the way your gonna really make serious gainz and instead of just non stop going hard everyday in the gym.
If you want what he has (high level), you have to do what he did or better. If you just want to be a better you, than do the average level of work. Look at the work Rich Froning and Matt Fraser have put in to get what they have.....
Lol. Stupid people go from zero to hero in a flip of switch right? Goggins don’t go hard every single time. You don’t see him sprinting his long runs do you? Exactly ya stupid. Goggins built that fitness throughout the years. Go do goggins in a week without the preparation and let us know if you didn’t pick any injuries ya stupid boi ok? 😂😂😂
When you do something consistently long enough your body adapts. Ultra marathoners could run for 50 miles at a fast jog, because they’ve put in the cumulative training. If you or me tried to keep an 8 mph pace for 50 miles our shins would break lol.
*''How much should you push yourself during a workout?''* Is that correct? *''How HARD should you push yourself during a workout?''* That sounds better...?
So I had deadlift, traps, lats, and rear delts yesterday. I do that twice a week. Tuesdays and Friday’s. Mondays and Thursdays are bench and squat. Wednesday is my only day off work each week so I just do a HIIT 15 minutes and stretch. I usually rock my accessories dependent on what they work with (biceps with back day, triceps with chest…duh). I always feel like I have more sets but once I’m done stretched and showered I feel like going to bed. I don’t really use preworkout. I do use gorilla mode when I do but it’s sort an emergency only thing. I’m rockin ostarine and rad 140 daily. But why even when I stop well before I know I have to, do I still feel like a zombie?
@@edsjourney5536 Do you have a watch that tracks sleep quality? If not, that might be a relatively inexpensive way to take a look at that. A sleep study would be better, but I think those are expensive, unless your insurance would cover it.
If you have never thrown up or almost passed from going hypoglycemic after a squat session your not doing enough , you kill your legs everytime it's a hard leg day and I promise they will grow
Ok let me rephrase I'm not saying every leg day or Everytime you're in the gym you need to kill yourself that's unrealistic but what I am saying is one thing that has really grown my legs and helped me get alot stronger is those days where u push well beyond what u normally do and are much more sore the next day , if u ain't struggling to get out of bed or on the toilet occasionally you ain't doing it right
Why is training harder than you usually do once in awhile such a foreign concept for you guys I literally have stretch marks all over my chest lats and thighs from the way I've been training so yeah it might not be "optimal" in your opinion but I'm growing and getting stronger consistently , high intensity training does produce good results , that's why alot of guys did it John Meadows , mike mentzer did it Dorain Yates did it and that's why Ronnie did it , I'm not saying to kill yourself in the gym everytime but how are you ever going to know where your limit is if you don't push it every once in awhile
“Harder than last time” is honestly the only thing you need when it comes to resistance training. Doesn’t matter how you do it, but being moderate and consistent like the guys in the videos mentioned is probably the best method for most people who are busy. As long as you eat well then you’re straight.
Wtf marks hair is looking clean. How all that hair grow back. Dude was bald for a century. Hgh ?? Finasdride monoxil ?? Mark help me I'm started to loose my hair from TRT ...
@@tjcogger1974 I am talking about isolation of movement. For example, I will do biceps and only biceps during my workout. Let's say I'm doing a set of curls at 20lbs. I will do as many reps as I can. Squeezing the muscle each rep till I can't do anymore. Then I rest for 1 to 2 minutes and do another set of curls this time at 30lbs - progressive overload. I keep doing this and increasing the weight till I eventually get to a set that I can't lift at all.
im no pro im just a regular bum in the gym. all of my injuries and niggles have been from listening to the meat heads that say lift heavy heavy heavy. train like rocky train like arnold train like ronnie coleman. that one rep your grinding could be the one that tears something. all of the legends we look up to have literally ended their careers through wreckless training. ronnie coleman look at his body now its wrecked. look at dorian yates blood and guts he torn a tricep, do i need to reel off all the bodybuilders that have torn biceps. myself i have a knackered groin, rounded shoulder. i threw that big arnold book in the bin.
Yesss start cutting up your videos into smaller key segments, some people on the go don’t have time to sit through all of it.
Or timestamp it. Super helpful when podcasts do that
agreed

Don't drain yourself. Train yourself.

Sounds basically like a conjugate method with lots of variations from week to week

Example: substituting wide-grip bench press for close-grip bench press, or pause bench, etc. There's no correlation between a kettlebell swing and a handstand push-up.
Harder than last time
I push myself to the maximum every single time I train. I walk out of the gym drained when I'm done training
That’s useless information
@@tscmph haha!!!! Hey that's cool if you think it's useless info
Pretty much proven to be a suboptimal way to train. Should reconsider how you train

Great content
I feel and learned now a days that what you eat is the way your gonna really make serious gainz and instead of just non stop going hard everyday in the gym.
Facts, you honestly only need about 30-45 minutes in the gym for a solid workout and you can make decent progress if you maintain a good diet.
Do 70-80% a day then. Like 75%. Not lack luster or not red lining every workout.
Where is full podcast?

I fucking love this podcast
become a jack of all trades.. 100% my point of view:) .. no crossfitter , filly is a really nice guy
@@stevend481 A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.
Jack of trades dont have specialized expertise and if u have a specialized expertise u can make a lot of money
Great podcast
How are you supposed to progressively overload with this lessened intensity? At some point you're gonna have to lift heavy
When things get ridiculously easy, then up the weight or reps until it is not so easy but not hard.
While CrossFit may have good intentions, they always stick out to me for promoting bad form and going so hard to the point of rhabdo and vomiting.
I agree to a certain extent. There is certainly good crossfit and bad crossfit. A lot depends on the coaches and the organization.
Till it pokes out
Lol tell this to goggins. He goes hard in the paint.
On the otherside of suffering is greatness!!
Lol. Stupid people go from zero to hero in a flip of switch right? Goggins don’t go hard every single time. You don’t see him sprinting his long runs do you? Exactly ya stupid.

Because he’s compensating

Even Goggins says he doesn’t advise for other people to do what he does to the extremes he does.
*''How much should you push yourself during a workout?''*
Is that correct?
*''How HARD should you push yourself during a workout?''*
That sounds better...?

If you’re in a crossfit gym you’re gonna improve in every area of interest. If your times are improving your happy trust me.

Are you getting enough sleep if good quality?
@@SettleNow I definitely get my 8 hours and I use theanine and a meditation app to knock out fast.
@@edsjourney5536 You mention feeling like a zombie. Is that only at bedtime? Do you wake up refreshed?

CrossFit is for special people
what kind of special people?
If you have never thrown up or almost passed from going hypoglycemic after a squat session your not doing enough , you kill your legs everytime it's a hard leg day and I promise they will grow
Well this is wrong.
You don’t need to push yourself to that limit to make them grow. Stop with the false information Richard

Do all your reps and sets to failure.

Strong though
Being massive ain’t all that when you have sleep apnea at 45. It’s all about being strong and having a balanced athletic build.
