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.
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
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!
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.
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).
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.
You're not Owen. You're Gurph.
You’re not Gurph. You’re Fridge.
What the hell are their actual names?! I've heard Eoin, Owen, Gurph and Fitz
@@andredubois4601they are the sika strength lads
@@andredubois4601this guy in the vid is Eoin Murphy aka. Gurph and Fridge etc. and the other guy not in the vid is Daire Fitz
@@i_sartist5563 Daire?!

Its called TUT
No, no it’s not
Just last night I watched the old Sika video about Soviet squat science. Feels like I'm living in a loop.
Was just watching one of their vids. Though youtube was glitching in this comment section.
Circle of life. Takes me back to you guys answering my question about Toshiki’s tempo, been a fun journey since then!
I reckon you're at least 2/3 of sika strength Gurph
But by mass probably like 30% since daire is 140kg

Enjoyed this video.
Do you think that for sports we shouldn't be using knee sleeves? Or at least not something like Inzer? Thanks
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 😅
what shoes would you say work best (wider toe box) and have room for insole?
First for the first time in my life 🧬
Faster than last time!
Right? Always heavier and faster
Of course Blaine appears when talking about the SSC! 😂

Any benifits to going fast for warm up reps?
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 🏋️♀️

I would side with Mike on this one.

Because one style is aimed towards having the biggest baddest squat while one is optimised towards having the biggest baddest legs (in theory)
@@sebastianboredal7486Its called TUT. proven effective

Halvsies
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
