How is it ego if tour form is solid? Without belt, knee wraps or that other trash that people bring in? If i am dead lifting 505 without any gear and my form is solid how is that ego if that became my work weight then if i stretch between sets? How it if Can run 5 miles in 31 minutes? And weigh 180lbs? All this because i focused on form and full rom also how is it ego if i can do muscle ups? All because i do beginner stuff and not advance lifting? Just because people want to be big weak and shit at cardio and feel better about being mentally and physically weak that they had to jump on sarms, anabolics then feel bad that some one who had been lifting the right way is out performing them with better form more weight more reps etc…. Doesn’t make them an ego lifter as a matter of fact in my 20 years of exercising the people take anabolics and sarms love to do half reps and quarter reps and good enough reps they seem to have a problem with people doing full rom with more weight then them. Lay off the anabolics leave let your test drop to natural levels stop lying to the young kids who dont know how to lift.

That kind of rep scheme would not be conducive for building a large muscular physique.. Very high reps with less than 30 seconds rest would be more aerobic than anaerobic.. Bodybuilding is not an endurance sport.. So regardless of his physique or being known as the uncrowned Mr Olympia I find it doubtful the Serge trained this way and he almost certainly did not train this way in the beginning of his bodybuilding days when he was trying trying to build and strong and powerful foundation.. Sometimes bodybuilders exaggerate their training styles just to make themselves seem different or superior to other guys.. Just like I don't believe Mike Meltzer built a Mr Universe body doing one set per body part and working out 3 times weekly for 20 minutes..

I always grew better when I stayed with the three day A/B split . Keeping my sets between 6-8 per body part per workout. Reps were 6-12 depending on the body part or exercise. Dorian Yates earlier workout split was good also Monday /Wednesday off Thursday ,Friday workout on Saturday off Sunday. That way there’s five days off between body parts . Great video 👍

Dope

Im jealous of the Nautilus Pulldown you got there, i have a Pullover Machine in my Gym and its awesome, dorian was right!

the main issue with this approach of training (or split) is that it's agonistic. So, you'll have to choose which muscle you want to focus on first, let's say you start your Push Day with Chest, alright, let's say you then follow it by shoulders, alright, the shoulder it's inexorable already fatigued, so you can't "express" the max force on it. Then close bench press, is another shoulder exercise, since the resistance is parallel with forearms whilst it should be perpendicular...So it's always the first exercise you do, in a session, the one that benefits more, and no one can't deny that fact. So, the "smartest" way to train, results in an antagonistic way (it can be upper lower, 2-3 muscles per session or full body style) but you have to know plane of motions, and lot of neurological aspects of it also. A classic antagonist is "biceps-triceps" for example. It's curious how in the PPL split the Legs trains in an antagonistic way...

Is it possible to just 8*2 working till 8*3 For bench and ohp Then do other bodybuilding stuff

thanks

Damn, Bald Omni Man recommended your channel and I can't believe you're not 10-50x larger, such a goldmine of information binging through all your videos. Thanks for all the enlightening content!

Awesome video🤝

I've recently found your YT channel, and I've subscribed. Lengthened partials, have place after failing full rom, that's how I'm doing.💪🏻 I like your content!

Also if your doing a certain amount of volume then drop it can it be possible to start regressing because now you need that volume amount?

Ah, I love dips but they always end up irritating my pec tendon after a certain point. The only intensifiers I ever perform are partial reps for pulling movements. Definitely not needed but I do think they provide a little extra especially if you're still getting the majority of the rep. Getting stronger is definitely the key to gain muscle but there was a significant period of time where I was so hyper focused on increasing the weight that I did weird things with my programming that just peaked my strength over and over. I seem to make more sustainable strength gains by doing three straight sets and using a double progression (for the primary movement). I'm way more patient now and the gains are way more consistent. I usually cap the exercises to two per session for a body part and no more than six sets. Funny you mention dropping frequency down to once a week. I used to think that was the dumbest way to train but at this point I totally see why guys do it. Super sustainable and if you're strong enough and doing enough work you can 100% make progress. I stopped training chest twice a week to let my pec tendon heal and replaced that day with an overhead pressing/shoulder day and my chest pressing is only going up and the extra shoulder pressing is contributing to some more shoulder size.

Best video about this exercise

This video should be entitled "before you watch social media to learn about fitness WATCH THIS!" 😂 It took me a long while to recognize that content from creators ranging from amateurs to professionals almost always lacks proper context. It's so important to keep in mind a video may not be for you even if the title seems to apply its universal advice. In fact, I would wager most videos don't apply to the majority of the audience. Definitely an important topic to cover. Thank you!!

2 weeks late but very meaningful vid. 3days ago, OHP for me was 3 x 6. On the 3rd set rep 4 was slow, rep 5 was really slow, and rep 6 was the slowest rep I've ever gotten. I've gotten countless slow single reps over the decades and over the last few years a fair number of sets with 2 slow reps. I am more proud of my first 3 complete slow reps than of any 1 rep max I've ever done. Still pushing forward at 66 years old. Thank you for your teaching.

You got a new sub here :), found you through your comments on other channels. I know that this is a frequently asked question, but how do I break through my bench press plateau? All my other lifts are progressing quite well, but the most I have benched is only 80 kg for 3. I currently train full body and rotate between Larsen presses and barbell bench presses, 3 sets of benching per session. I am 5'9" tall and weigh 160 pounds.

The nuanced info on this video is on another level. As always, thank you!!

Very nice discussion. Thank you. One thing I hear quite often (ref. 30:30 in your video) but I never actually see is the idea that there are guys out there who focus on strict form too much and spin their wheels in the gym for years making no progress. What I do see, however, are guys who go to the gym, on and off (more off than on) who don't progress. I doubt many people who go to the gym regularly for years spin their wheels for years...they learn from their mistakes and grow. Anyway, thank you for an excellent video.

Is 5, ,5, 3 fine. Or should I drop the weight on bar like 10 pounds? I also do 2 burnout sets at a lower weight prob in the. 12-15 rep range to get more volume in

Super intelligent structure and reasoning! Still, do you think that in comparison a block system of 4-6 weeks specializing on each phase (heavy light medium) could make stronger adaptations and add more variety which would make a positive resensitization so that returning to the same stimulus you make better gains again with less volume? The mind pumped guys' system is built around this idea. But I have to say again, your system is super cool as well. Interestingly it also resonates with Jason Gallant's concept of doing heavy work only once every 2-3 weeks and the other workouts more pump style of training. (again huge respect for you for making a superb podcast with him, as I know the only one, a hidden gem) 😊

What about shoulders legs back and arms?

I like Frank Zane’s mass routine w/o Monday off Tuesday w/o Wednesday off Thursday w/o Friday and Saturday off Sunday. Works pretty good. Workouts would be c/s/t then B/B then legs . Greatest video!

I’m on a 1000 calorie deficit and every week my only workout that keeps dipping is my bench press. Ego was hurt till I saw this video thank you😊

I do them on an incline bench with dumbbells like you said . Works get for me that way.

On your 4 day split you didn’t mention front delts . Do you rely on your other pressing movements for front delts .

Great video , lots of info

Hi Faz, how did you injure your hamstring ?

Great video

I stopped listening to all these nonsense these people are putting out. Lengthened partials and take a break from the gym etc.. I am not saying some of these things doesn't have a place in a gym journey, but in my opinion, these are not game changer things(but they try to sell them as one). In my opinion usually those people who are stuck on their journey, start to look at these tricks, but meanwhile they don't sleep enough, train like a pussy and/or don't even have a diet. I dropped 10 kg in 10-11 weeks with diet and cardio and I am getting stronger every 3-4 weeks. I am not a powerlifter or unusually strong, but I can do reps on bench with my own bodyweight. Having a proper diet and managing the signals from your body and doing cardio are the biggest game changers beside advancing on weight and reps.

Great content Faz! Do you do programs that only have running without any weight lifting for legs?

I think actually that DC training provides more volume than people think. Those rest-pause sets are not one set, they are three - and three to failure, too. If we accept the evidence, which shows that sets as low as 4 reps stimulate growth, a rest-pause set of, for example, 10, 5, 4 are in fact three sets. So its probably a bit more work than people think over a week.

I like 50% sets . You do your first set to failure then rest one minute and do a second set trying to get at least half of the reps of the first set .

what video is that leg curl from?
