The next book is finally OUT!!! Really proud of how it turned out. It has completely NEW information, as I've learned quite a bit about training since the first one. It's focused on improving your hypertrophy-training process and CURB STOMPING plateaus. It includes an almost SEVEN HOUR audiobook FOR FREE, which I decided to record myself rather than outsourcing. Feedback has been excellent so far. I don't do sponsored videos or have ads on the channel (if you see them on this video they're from that 10 second Mummy clip😅😅😅) , so I GREATLY appreciate the support. I really is YOU who keeps the channel going! Can grab a copy below if it sounds like something you'd be interested in! www.verityfit.com/product-page/resurrecting-your-gains-finding-your-muscle-growth-formula
Decided pick up your book this morning actually had a few extra bucks for once and I find you advice quite helpful and entertaining LoL anyways great job looking forward to the read.
Crazy I'm literally about to put it on my headphones to listen to for a little bit before I go to bed LoL have a great day man keep up the great work 🤘😎🤘
Having watched GVS for years, I feel like this is a magnum opus that summarizes the conclusions of dozens of his videos. Here's to another hundred years of GVS content
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how GVS recorded a video that was trimmed down to 22 minutes and all of this was accomplished in the same sixty second timespan according to the clock on his wall?
Geoffrey, I’m not proud to admit this but I think I’m addicted to your voice. I like to listen to you talk whenever i need something to fall asleep to. Not saying you’re boring, in fact your content is very interesting. I think its the cadence with which you speak. Sometimes I find myself speaking with your cadence in my internal monologue as i go about my day. Glad to get it off my chest
Each of these 100 points could be the topic of an entire video, & all solid points! Glad you asked Tom Lazorik to make a video like this next. His channel is full of amazing content & info, & I know he’s going to have some great knowledge to share here too. 💪
This is so great. I also encourage everyone to buy his book if you like the channel - it’s like an encyclopedia that’s logically laid out of all his info 👏🏼💯💪🏼
This could actually be 100 separate videos. And maybe you should to drive the points home for those a little slow on the uptake. Make it a playlist, even. And with this as the pilot episode, so to speak. But yeah, excellent video. All points summed up very nicely in a one-stop-shop fashion. Could be a great reminder to watch once every blue moon for when all the internet hype has us doubting what we already know and practice. I find practical advice more motivating than the designed motivational videos with the vague quotes and the music and the same video clips of yesteryear's bodybuilders. The drive gotten from those videos fade fast. The inspiration from knowing what to do goes on and on. Keep up the good work.
Most important things I've learned are... 1. Good form prevents injury. 2. Ignore everything but the 3 pillars, everything else is fluff. The three pillars are progressive overload, food, and rest.
“Getting better is better than getting sore.” Bro, I felt that one... I am absolutely guilty of always chasing the methods that just beat me up and make me sore af. My lower body workouts especially are completely based around this lol. Squats, lunges, hack squats are all heavy as fuck, rest paused, way beyond failure. I pretty much lift until I feel accomplished... Thanks man, I’ll give this a shot.
11:12 so true, I think the nocebo is actually huge these days 18:59 so true, often your body knows your situation and all the tiny nuances infinitely better than information in books or studies fantastic video, you really should make another video about ''self efficacy'' or ''going by feel'' in the future! it's the most valuable skill you can learn in my opinion, and not enough people have it or develop it
No. 13 Absolutely. As a long-limbed individual almost all of my isolation work looks a little wonky to most people, but guess what? Those wonky movements are how I hit the muscle best.
The first one is amazing. The second one awesome. Third, fourth, fifth...this video is gold. Six, seven, eight... My brain can't handle 8 years of wisdom in 20 minutes! Must rewatch video many times. 👍👍
Im poor but im gonna have to buy your book. Your channel has tought me so much about training (and outside of training) and in turn motivated me to take it more seriously.
Phenomal list, man! You could teach a 100 day course on each point and get peeps jacked as fluff. But I will say, point 55 and 65 I have some mild disagreement with. I think certain prehab practices should be tended to with more time and regularity (but as you stated in another point, know why you’re doing what you’re doing). And stretching totally changed my lifting for the better (but again, knowing how to properly implement what, and how to incorporate them into a prehab/warmup is essential to not making these practices a waste). Also, thank you so much for mentioning me! Imma get on my list. Thanks for the vid, brother 💪🤓
@@cronikvialo5463 YES! That’s largely what I’m getting at, but I must say, the benefit is more direct than one might think as these practices can allow you to move and perform better in your workouts, thus triggering more growth. It’s also great for injury prevention, and if you can’t train, you can’t gain! 💪🤓
And yes, I do think it matters for workouts. When I started stretching my lats and shoulders before pull-ups, I noticed much better mind muscle connection, soreness of target muscles, and better ROM.
I love your videos Geoffrey. No one has gotten me into lifting the way that you have. Started your Lazy Man's Beginner plan and reviewing it on my channel after 6 weeks!
67: I thought that too, until I started warming up on a rowing machine before pulls and leg oriented compound movements. I experience way less knee issues and can actually conventional deadlift properly now. But rowing as a movement is very similiar to a deadlift, so thats probably the reason.
You know what would be a funny video. A montage of gym faces when doing heavy lifts. Can someone please put together a clip hahahha. We all have our unique face we pull when grinding out the last few reps or pushing through a heavy hard rep. Golden lol
I really needed that time off being okay tip. Due to factors outside of my control I haven't been able to go to the gym (or really anywhere at all) this week, and I've been going crazy thinking I'm going to lose all my limited progress since I started going to the gym in April this year.
Impressive list man. Glad to see I'm doing/paying attention to/know virtually all 100 points already in practice! Except for calisthenics currently and not taking measurements of ligaments and struggling to get in enough sleep hours though, evenings feel too short! What I would like to add on this list is everyone should at least once in their lives give a fair shot at trying to do a moderate bulk, just to see if it works for you. It's something I've been putting off for a while since I was just trying to get leaner and leaner and was in a deficit for way too long, so now I'm really trying a bulk for the rest of the year. (hint: its going pretty well so far started 1 sep 2022). Yeah also a meticulous tracker, almost ashamed of how much variables I keep track of and correction factors for labels, scales offset, activity etc etc etc.
Looking super jacked on that shirt sir! I enjoyed the first book waiting till I move to get the second one since I don't want to hype myself when I can't train yet. Thank you for the content as always!
My fitness journey started with CrossFit and playing hopscotch on machines>to plateauing ICF while simultaneously taking advice from Jeff Cavalier As a result, I ended up injured for 2 years and not even being able to squat 225 after 5 years of “training”.
I hear these anecdotes from so many people, myself included to a certain extent. It wasn't until I ditched the minutia and just jumped on the most bog standard of total body and upper/lower programs that I really saw the progress that I was looking for. Athleanx has honestly caused irreparable damage to the casual lifter just looking to be more jacked and stronger
@@AwesomeCo1 A main reason I didn’t progress strength-wise before I got injured was due to misinformation about bulking. By the time I figured out that I couldn’t get bigger, stronger, and leaner naturally it was too late. I’m glad that now, I found a better program and a community with natural lifters that actually give good training/diet advice unlike these bro-science fake nattys.
For tracking your workouts I really recommend the app Strong. In the free version you can only create 4 templates but if you create a workout from scratch you cam copy it the next workout so you have an infinite amount of templates. Great video as always !
Yeah this is my go to as well man. Amazing app, particularly when you work out how to get the most of the free version. I think it really comes into its own when you can look back at your history with a given lift and see how far you've come, helps to make sure that things are moving in the right direction
The next book is finally OUT!!!

Thank you both for what you do. I need to get back to it. 💪💪
FAQs?!
HUGE RESPECT for the amount of time it took for you to tag each of the 100 points in the description
Right? I was thinking the same thing. I LOVE this guy! 💪🏼💪🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hillerfit level of dedication to the RUclips game
Just casually 20x’s us lmao. Reflecting on our beginner selves is quite the rabbit hole. I’ll probably reflect a bit more and make a part 2
Agree
"no 53 most things don't kill your gains until you watch a video about how they kill your gains" this a good one
Having watched GVS for years, I feel like this is a magnum opus that summarizes the conclusions of dozens of his videos. Here's to another hundred years of GVS content
Shoutout GVS for literally timestamping all 100. 🙏
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how GVS recorded a video that was trimmed down to 22 minutes and all of this was accomplished in the same sixty second timespan according to the clock on his wall?
