Hey David, great video! I may be overthinking this but I think I may be onto something: Maybe the reps at a given load have little to do with the load itsself but more with the work done. On one end we have a tall man with a close stance squat with about a meter long ROM, and on the other hand we can have a dwarf with a wide stance squat and a ROM of 25cm. What I'm thinking is that the first man will get very few reps and the second one many reps while both of them AMRAP a given % of 1RM. So in extreme cases the dwarf can do a triple with about his max in that example. So if we equate for total reps at a given percentage between these two men, could the stimulus be about the same? Or should we equate for work done? I'm not sure... Your thoughts?
@@BrazosValleyBarbell Yes of course the stimulus should be individualised no argument here. What I'm saying is that equating the stimulus for many people first of all is very useful for studies. Secondly this I think holds up even in an intra-person setting. I noticed you squatted 8 reps @ 8.5 with 81% of your max, can you replicate that performance with a close stance squat? Same for bench and deadlift just using squats as example. I'm just trying to measure the stimulus better. Is a set of 10@8 on close grip as it is on wide grip? Etc...
Hey Dave would you make a video on how to build the deadlift without performing the deadlift? I've seen people get to 500lbs without deadlifting with good mornings, pendlay rows and some extra ab/grip work. Thoughts?
Thank you so much for this, if you ever have time, I have a question, is two sets of seven and seven sets of two with the same exact weight different? Like is there any specific advantage to either? I like doing low reps and high sets to really focus of execution
ua-cam.com/video/apBykePksGs/v-deo.html Johnny Candito talks about it in this video. Basically at moderately high reps like 7 reps x 3 sets is the same as 10 reps x 2 sets or 5 reps x 4 sets but at very low reps there is a difference, so 7 reps x 2 sets will not elicit the same results as 2 reps x 7 sets.
How you do it reminds me of Mike Tuchscherers load drop (fatigue percent). Work up to a top set @RPE 9 at a given rep. Then decrease the load by 5% and do back up sets with the same reps until you reach RPE 9 again. What is your opinion on fatigue percent?
Hey David lately I’ve been quite curious about type 1 & 2 muscle fibres and I wonder if the type of muscle fibre affects the the RPE value of a lifter ? Not sure if it has any correlation between the two.
man this comment section is asking great questions and really appreciate you answering them
Looks like all his comments were deleted 😅
Very informative as always. Thank you again! Keep up with the content
Very well explained my man thank you
I'd train by perentage but add extra sets based on rpe. ;) Percentage is you just clocking it in. Rpe is feeling which changes every single day.
Awesome video!! Great job explaining these concepts.
Needed this
Hey David, very good Video!
Do you have the DOI or the name of the paper with the topic about beginners should train closer to failure?

You could probably do that, it'd just take a lot longer and be a very weird roundabout way to get to a 500lb pull..
Why would you do that

why does he sound like doctor deadlift 😅

Sounds great. Thanks for replying so fast 🥰
What is the wire between the barbell and the floor when you squat?? (e.g. 3:20).
Velocity tracker to measure bar speed
Hi, I'm wondering how reps in reserve should be used. Is it doable reps in the same set? Or the question of how many can I do after some rest?
The first one

@@BrazosValleyBarbell no worries mate just random things that pop into my head.
