I knew everything he said here already and have done for many many years, it's just comforting to hear it again, and to know that the science hasn't changed after all these years.
4:00. At age 54, I recently took off 3 weeks of training. I did however continue to eat 15-25 grams of protein every 3 hours and I started looking even better then when I was training. I'm going back in a few days, full body workout, lighter weight, higher reps to failure
This is all very true, I've been lifting since 1985, since I've been 10 years old, I've never trained under eight reps, currently I'm 6 ft 242lbs with visible abs, always had stocky thick thighs calves, a cross between ectomorph and mesomorph, very thin wrists and thin boned but have been able to pack on a lot of size from staying in the 8 to 15 rep range going, to failure on pretty much 50% of my sets, also drop sets and rest pause.
I have made the switch from heavy training (reps in the 3-6 reps with zero time under tension) to more time under tension in the 5 to 20 reprange and shorter rest pauses in between each set. Sometimes I do a set of 5 reps with 5 seconds up, 2 second hold and 5 second down... one rep of 12 seconds! My strength went down by 30%-40% at least, but my muscles look much fuller! Also, my joints feel a bit more healthy and I feel very satisfied after every workout!
Hey - good info. I made switch as well. I do the same type of sets your talking about. My strength went down as also. But - what I did to fix that was first remaining consistent and slowly increasing the weight by like 5 lbs every couple of months. Continuing to stay in the 30 to 20 rep range. Then for me personally I would lift heavier for two weeks then go back to higher reps. Check this guy out on RUclips: Ryan Humiston
Mike Mentzer work out. I'm in my 50s with good build, full abs showing and continue that routine 30 minutes twice a week to extreme failure 1 set. Mentzer is right for us guys not using gear.
i once took a week off from having a bad fever and my muscles got way smaller. From that point on weightlifting became a life long thing, being small is depressing as hell
I came down with a flu about a month ago so couldn’t train , and I continued growing, even after taking 2 weeks off ! All natural of course, and it makes sense , what do anabolics do? They lower cortisol and help you recover quicker, so finding that sweet spot of stimulation and recovery is important as naturals ,we’re all different body types, some respond to higher reps , some to lower, mixing it up is important, whatever it takes , develop that bulk😊👍
Absolutely loved this video. Just raw, straight to the point facts.. love it. I discovered your channel today, you have a new sub and will sign up for the e-letters. Thank you Sir..
You gotta trust Jerry. He knows!! I do a combination of medium to heavy on all bodyparts. I also vary the rest times. Example: biceps. 1. Concentration curls Arnold style in Pumping Iron. 20-15-12-10 with 30 seconds between sets. Rest for 2 or three minutes and do 2 sets of 6 reps with as much weight as I can handle for 6 strict reps (usually 55 lb dumbbells). 2. Dumbbell hammer curls lifting both at the same time: 15-12-10 short rests between. Then two sets heavy with a longer rest period. 3. Preacher Bench, same thing. 4. Incline Dumbbell curls at the end to get a nice stretch and explode the pump. 15-12-10 then two heavy sets for 6-8 reps. Example: Bench press. 135 x 20 warmup. 165 x 15; 165 x 12; 165 x 10. 30 seconds rest between sets. The pump and burn is horrendous. Now rest for 3 to 4 minutes, load up the bar with 225 and do two sets of 8 reps with long rest between. Not to failure. I leave 2 in the tank. This keeps my power up. The 225 feels heavy after the lighter sets. Normally, in a power type low rep workout with lots of rest between sets I can to 20 to 30 reps with 225. Natty and 68 years old. Still have 20 inch pipes and 52 chest. Training since 1967 (off and on as life allowed). I trained the last 10 years straight. That's the longest stretch for me without a layoff. But I did back off some and reduce to a maintenance workout for a while.
What say you? Siim Land recently explained that certain supplements may interfere with building muscle and should not be taken post workout. Siim theorizes avoid certain supplements after exercise. Inflammation signals muscle growth and anti-inflammatory or antioxidants interfere with muscle growth. Also, supplements which slow down or inhibit mTOR interfere with muscle growth.
Good refersher course. Sometimes you need to hear things again to implement them. The other day I watched your calf training video and took your advice….high reps and lighter weight for the soleus…..heavy weight for the gastrocnemius! 💪
Does lighter weight, higher rep training include Vince Gironda's 6x6 and 8x8? What you really have here is 1 set followed by several sets with 15-20 seconds rests --- not unlike the rest-pause. You're still getting 36-64 reps/exercise, just not in one continuous motion of 20-30 reps.
Depends on your goal.You going for size or for ripped.The lower reps to failure will build strength and size.You will get stronger before you get bigger.The higher rep's to failure you will build a little size but gain stamina like a cross fitter.
I do high reps because i feel the tension effectively in the target muscle. When i lift heavier i cant get the same targeted burn. So should i incorporate more heavy load reps in my routine? Will i stimulate growth even though i dont feel that same targeted "burn" or fatigue?
I never understood doing multiple sets of a exercise if you go to momentary muscular failure on 1 set. Especially if you're doing full body workouts 3x a week. Stimulate don't annihilate
I learned this, i get to lactic acid theory/question, stuff in high school PE in Huntington Beach California 2005, i think cuz gov. Schwarzenegger made book smarts science of PE a passed standard or it was kinda new (Q1), and i applied that lactic acid would burn fat because its an acid and it scorch muscle fiber, which the book said is torn as there word, and by burning the muscle fiber would cause the tearing of the fiber and incinerate smallnor weak fibers so youd get just strong and lean muscle quality. And better performance because you have less fat clogging ur blood flows, and cleaner capillaries and muscle fibers, like a cross country skier. Also, Q3, would mixing up, muscle confusion?, of ur high weight to some low weight to failure having better effects and less plateau from a confusing manor of training? Confusion is using all the different techniques?, then adapt to ur own metabolism and fiber content. Thats all, kinda long, but i think i got really well thought out stuff that would answer others questions ,before they even got to that step in intellect evolution. I was nominated for the Golden Hawk, subject best performer both years, 11th and 12th for my high school in math, pre calc and calculus, and probably had least 75 to 85% highest score out of tests last 2 years in math, at Calculus level. Also, i jumped onto a 42 inch wall but from far so dropped maybe 4 to 7 inch from peak so i might have a better vertical than any NBA star ever, was 6'4 and 175-180 like Javier Sotomayor, at 24y.o., and im 31 now, so could i still maybe train to beat Javier for world record high jump? I had a hospitalization and had to take a hyperlipid ,sedating, metabolic rate changer, and am now 200 lbs, but should i go for Arnold's size body Bing, or still try high jump?? You have most experience with muscle train, and thats what i think would carry me to do really well at something.

@@Only_bodybuilding_ I was talking to someone who said it was overkill for me to keep journal on all my workouts and sets. This was a trainer. He said he doesn’t believe in progressive overload.

He can call it whatever he wants it’s the same thing. The amount of really bad trainers out there is amazing. We have a 200lb female trainer at my gym that has people do ten reps with weights so light they could do fifty. A licensed trainer that probably doesn’t even know what hypertrophy is.
There are different varieties and people have different needs. Muscle confusion is using the different varieties. All this stuff was taught to me in high school PE in '05 in Huntington Beach California, after Schwarzenegger, mr olympia 6x, was made governor. I used this stuff to know how to get an 8 pack at 18. It also said, u grow muscle finer amount not size in puberty or youth, and if u work out u wont grow as long but ull get thicker, so i let myself get tall, then workedd out, and worked out after periods of resting for months or a year which was too long, but ur body gets used to the size then it is easier to get a reaction from the same stimulus, like progreesing thru plateaus.

30 minutes of listening to a run on sentence of big words and he’s revealed not a single thing that isn’t already a known fact to anyone who has spent any length of time working out. Between him and Johnny Jackson unfocused ramblings, I feel like GE is running out of content anyone cares about.
" not a single thing that isn’t already a known " yes to you. Not the obese person who has never picked up a dumbell or barbell in their life... Reality is not just based on James perspective.
Tuned out after the first two minutes...reminded me of a kid that has to do a ten minute speech, just strechs out and rambles on about pointless facts and numbers rather than just getting to the point, which can be summed up in a sentence
It probably does but when you reach that up in age. You got to do what ever you can and not retire in being healthy before you die. Rather go out out healthy. If your doing bad well you go out bad.
there is no probably according to medical science,well lets put it this way a man at 20 and at 60 the same man mind you doing the same amount of resistance work will he have the same amount of muscle?

Train enough, use light weights-much reps, protect your joints, eat balanced...

Hey, who you calling pencilneck
2,
30 minutes of listening to a run on sentence of big words and he’s revealed not a single thing that isn’t already a known fact to anyone who has spent any length of time working out. Between him and Johnny Jackson unfocused ramblings, I feel like GE is running out of content anyone cares about.
" not a single thing that isn’t already a known " yes to you. Not the obese person who has never picked up a dumbell or barbell in their life... Reality is not just based on James perspective.
Tuned out after the first two minutes...reminded me of a kid that has to do a ten minute speech, just strechs out and rambles on about pointless facts and numbers rather than just getting to the point, which can be summed up in a sentence
Most people watching videos about muscle hypertrophy dont know very much, hence why theyre watching a youtube video about muscle hypertrophy.
thats exactly wrong ,it is hormones your test goes down as you age
It probably does but when you reach that up in age. You got to do what ever you can and not retire in being healthy before you die. Rather go out out healthy. If your doing bad well you go out bad.
there is no probably according to medical science,well lets put it this way a man at 20 and at 60 the same man mind you doing the same amount of resistance work will he have the same amount of muscle?
Something cool about a grumpy jew giving muscle building and fat loss advice
Why does it matter that hes Jewish

You are 100 percent right
Get.....to......the point.....
