    I’d say another reason a slow squat eccentric would maybe be slightly better for hypertrophy is that the deep stretch under load appears to be slightly more hypertrophic and in theory going slower could possibly help you get into that deeper position.

    Just last night I watched the old Sika video about Soviet squat science. Feels like I'm living in a loop.

    Do you think that for sports we shouldn't be using knee sleeves? Or at least not something like Inzer? Thanks

      @sikastrength  4 місяці тому +8

      Sleeves are fine, even useful in some cases. In the off season if you can move a few extra kg it could be useful, as long as it's not wraps tied so tight you can't walk 😅

    Just watch how john hack, clarence and the mountain on how they squat. Clarence squats fast for speed and strength. John sqauats slower but more weight cause he doesnt need speed to drop under the bar to catch. The mountain squats the heaviest but does not need speed

    • @sikastrength
      @sikastrength  4 місяці тому +6

      It might help when you're going for a max attempt as some lifters like to destroy the lighter weights. I'm one of the those lifters 🏋️‍♀️

    Interesting that Mike Israetel/RP advocates slow eccentric for maximizing hypertrophy - I wonder where the disconnect comes from the message here that it may be inconclusive. Hmm!

    • @sebastianboredal7486
      @sebastianboredal7486 4 місяці тому +1

      It's just marketing on their point. Slow eccentrics is just a tool to maximize the "deep painful stretch", and that's the only thing that separates them from any other advice.

      Because one style is aimed towards having the biggest baddest squat while one is optimised towards having the biggest baddest legs (in theory)

    I am not sure about the slow speed for hypertrophy. Lots of bodybuilders have massive legs and squat fast, Tom Platz , Jay Cutler and Ronnie Coleman to mention a few. I am not sure of the sample size, as the are very small. The a better study would be to watch the squat tempo of bodybuilding pros and amature (enhanced and natural).

    I call bs on extra calorie burn on slow lifts. For you to burn any meaningful calories you'd have to stand with the weights for hours

    • @MellonVegan
      @MellonVegan 4 місяці тому +3

      If it's about the actual calories for weight loss, sure. But if we're talking emptying your ATP stores, it very much does matter.
      Edit: nevermind, that really didn't go where I thought it would. Fully agree, in this case.
