  • @RLaughlin1234
    @RLaughlin1234 7 місяців тому +5

    You look great. Great vid as always.
    I spent several years experimenting with different training methods when I first started in my late teens. One conclusion that I eventually came to regarding my own training was that I would be able to build as fast as I was capable of (and maintain it as best I could over time) by working out hard no more than 4 days a week, and typically for no more than an hour or so at a time. I also discovered that using exclusively higher reps (above 15 or so) for the upper body would cause me to flatten out. I seem to be pretty much the "fast twitch" type.
    With that said, at 54 I am getting more and more away from doing less than 8-10 reps for very many exercises. I almost always do a minimum of 10 reps for thighs, and at least 15 reps for calf work. I suffered a minor injury in early December while doing rack pulls below the knees (for the back) for a set of 4 with 465 - something I've done countless times before with no problem. I have not done rack pulls since, and if I do decide to do them again I will use a lighter weight for higher reps and a very deliberate and careful technique.
    I have never used PEDs, and I consider myself rather average in terms of genetics. Like yourself, I just kept at it over many years and decades. I've put nearly 100 pounds of mostly solid weight on my body over the last 35 years, and my physique looks nothing like it did when I was 18. I don't have abs, but I'm light years away from the skinny kid I was when I started.
    While I don't think it's realistic for most people to spend many hours a day training (assuming they are not spending most of their gym time socializing), I think the moderate weight, moderate intensity, higher rep stuff with shorter rest periods can be useful for periods of time (as you said) for a change of pace, to help with overall recovery, etc. And it may become necessary for many of us as we age to move our training in that direction permanently.
    I think this type of training will probably work best for the advanced trainer - Nubret no doubt was able to stimulate his muscles quite well doing sets of 15-20 reps of flat bench using weighs probably in the 275-315 range (estimate based upon his 500lb 1RM). But the young healthy guy just starting out who can barely bench a triple digit weight for a 1RM should spend at least the first few years in the gym focusing on getting as strong as possible in the 5-15 rep range on most compound exercises IMO.

    • @carvedouttastone
      @carvedouttastone  7 місяців тому +4

      Hundred percent agree. I always tell my younger nephews starting out. "Look, you've got 5-10 potential productive years for getting as much strength and mass as possible" . After that window, it's gonna become harder to add injury free strength and size and you'll just be focusing on weak points and refinement
      Just like serge and many golden era guys, they built their strength and mass under the heavy iron and then spent the better half of their careers, chiseling it down to perfection
      A lesson well taught and an example often ignored
      Appreciate your time relating your experience mate. Keep it going. We're similar ages and we ain't done yet!

      How much do you guys care about adding weight and progressing with reps? I don't do Segre's training exactly but I do higher volume with rest periods between 30 and 60 seconds, maybe 90 with chins. I'm maybe to used to the previous style of training I used where I was trying to add reps at every working set I did. Now when I do for example 4 sets of an exercise and the last training was 4x12,12,10,10, I try to add at least one rep (12,12,11,10) but the progression is slow this way and sometimes I even add no rep as the volume is high. Is it a concern or is it normal? Do you focus on tracking your reps at all?

      @@krystofodehnal9448 I try to add reps, increase the weight or decrease the rest times personally and I won't aim for that across all exercises. I might put the other body parts on maintenance (just get the sets and reps done with consistent weight) but for 1-2 body parts I'll push the above variables. I'll also take the last set to all out screaming failure to really nail down the effective reps so that they're not all just warm up sets

    Although I've mainly stuck to abbreviated training, I've often taken long breaks between the tough WOs and done very short pump WOs every day and it works great. Despite long periods of illness I've lost zero size and very little strength, and the strength lost is on lifts I haven't been doing. 100% natural not that I judge those who use. Bottom line as you said is to always keep an open mind. Developing intuition takes time but intuitive training is great. I hate dogma. It all works if you know when and how to apply it. Great video.

    So the high volume is to be introduced when the high intensity heavy duty stuff begins to stagnate and fry the nervous system?.
    My anotomical composition seems to respond to a mix of the two. The one thing i derived from the old schoolers was to always listen to whats innate to you and negate the exogenous convention of life.
    I like to do one exercise that actually works for at least 5 to 7 sets including two all out heavy war sets, but the leading up sets are over 15 reps and short rests. At this point the heavier sets dont feel as heavy as you have engineered your reaponse to withstand that load, and then i drop set. After this, i pick another exercise, but this is mainly to stretch out that attacked muscle. It's a mix of the two styles, but i feel it won't work forever, so ill definitely be trying the high volume lower weight soon 🙏🙏😇

    Vince Gironda had the 8×8 routine with only 15 seconds rest between sets. You would complete dozens of sets in around 45 minutes. In the beginning you wouldn't be able to lift as heavy due to the limited rest between sets but eventually you would be lifting just as heavy as you were with the conventional 1 to 2 minutes rest. I don't know how Serge could train for 12 hours a day. I knew he would train with high volume but 12 hours. Not saying he didn't. Then you get guys like Victor Richards that according to Larry Pollock would take up to 10 minutes rest between sets and spend 90 % of gym time socializing, yet looked damn impressive. Maybe not as cut but impressive nonetheless. Imagine if most bodybuilders devoted as much time to experimenting with training routines as they did with PEDs. Mike Mattatazo mentioned this in an interview after he got sick saying as a bodybuilder he never really experimented with training methods or routines just sticking to the same training and diet throughout his career but was always experimenting with different PEDs and their dosages. I think if more bodybuilders took this type of approach with little rest combined with high volume and numerous exercises they would benefit more in the long run as the moderate weights lessens the chance of injury. I will,definitely try this approach, I kinda do to a certain extent but take more rest with compound exercises. I'll go a bit lighter and see how I go. Thanks.

    I came across the concept of volumizing from Alexander bromley; I was going too ask if you think it would be prudent too do 3-4 sets for a week or two first and then slowly ramp up the volume too get accustomed with Serge's programme

    • @carvedouttastone

      First, I don't like Alexander Bromley - the guy wouldn't know an original idea if it bit him in his fat a$$
      Second, don't overcomplicate it. Do the program as set as that's how it's designed to work. Yes, the volume recommendations are mostly arbitrary, but roll with it as written to see how you respond before changing it into something it's not.
      Once you've run through it in it's original inception, then you have room to wiggle in regards to changes.
      So, long story short, stop listening to Anthony Bromley

Still felt like I barely held on to the muscle i had or maybe even lost some despite busting my ass for 6 weeks. Just wasn't for me. I have noticed that for me I need a lot more rest than working out 6 days a week, even with a split system. So these days I train EOD at most. But I work a 9-5 so maybe that's a factor as well.
