    Mike mentzer says the more weights you can push,more rest you need. I've also heard you can get 300% stronger,but can only increase recovery rate by 50%. So it makes sense that a stronger man would need more and more rest since he does more and more work.

    Ever since I started lifting, I went hard. I first started going to the gym with my older sister(who could drive) during summer break between 6th and 7th grade, and eventually convinced my best friend to join also. We rode our bikes to the gym and stayed for 2-3 hours literally every day, high weight low reps all the time. And around 9th grade, I (and soon my best friend) hit a wall, where no matter what we did we weren't increasing in strength on...well, almost everything it felt like. Since I first started lifting(this would have been like mid-late 90s) I'd heard about how important rest was, and would often overhear the conversations of the older guys who would debate this stuff. But I always figured, I don't hit each muscle every day, so each muscle/muscle group is getting at least a day or two of rest.
    Though actually there was a long period where we did bench/chest/tri's first thing, every single day, and that was the hardest/longest wall I'd ever hit(again, around the start of 9th grade), or at least the most frustrating one, given how much time we spent in the gym, how hard we went, the fact that despite being a relatively small(well, average I guess) sized guy(I'm 5'10 or 11" now for reference, was probably only about 160 in 9th grade), I was assigned to play linebacker, and I desperately wanted to get as big and strong as I possibly could, as it's not fun having to take on blocking linemen, fullbacks, 200+in running backs with agility of a...I dunno, a kangaroo?)
    Anyway, I was stuck at 245lbs for bench, and couldn't lift more than that for what felt like a year(barring the usual random good days, or when I was hyped up, etc.) And the worst part was watching these other guys from school, or other football players in the weight room who hadn't lifted before, making huge gains in strength.
    Eventually my friend and I agreed to rest each muscle group for at least 3-4 days, and to only bench about twice a week. And wouldn't you know it, we started lifting more. Not huge increases, as we weren't on gear or anything, and could barely afford protein and weight gain shakes(gaining weight was particularly difficult for me), but enough to make it feel like all of the time and dedication was worth it.

      @@vanobiashvili6264 honestly it was all the regiment and consistency. I calculated my one rep max and then this was the plan:
      week 1: 5x5 @ 75%
      week 2: 6x4 @ 80%
      week 3: 7x3 @ 85%
      week 4: 8x2 @ 90%
      week 5: 10x1 @ 95%
      week 6: 5x5 @ 65% (deload)
      week 7: retest max
      I also found my sticking point and did accessory excercises to help!

      @@BeeReports444 yeah you do 10 sets of one rep. By that point your strength will have grown some (in theory). But usually by set 8-9 you’re faking the rep but use a spot to push through set 10 anyways. It KILLS your muscles but makes you so much stronger

    this is very true. I scheduled all ym lifts around recovery and my gains skyrocketed.
    1. Do a month of basic bodybuilding hypertony work. 60-70% of weight for reps
    2. Then have a week off
    3. Then have 2 weeks of very intense, heavy weights, HIIT lifts. Like try to put max and blast for reps.
    Youll feel like sh**t
    4. have a week off. Like literally just eat well, sleep well and dont llift more than your ass during morning situps
    5. back to hypertony. Your recovered muscles will now have MUCH more strength and you will be able to do 60-70% weight reps with much bigger weights.

    I think it’s important to deload to let your lower back and joints recover. I almost tweaked something recently because in a month I went from a 315lb max squat and deadlift to hitting it for 3x8s 3-4x a week. I gained the strength and nervous system to do so but my joints I feel has not caught up nor recovered from it. So I’m taking a deload week for the first time ever, half the volume and frequency and replacing it with low intensity cardio

    • @OfficialStrongmancom
      @OfficialStrongmancom  Рік тому +1

      Can't go wrong with a deload every 3 weeks. Doesn't need to be major but a slight pull back in volume/intensity to pull some recovery back for the next few weeks

    Thank YOU for saying this, Mr. Hall. He got to a level of strength that warranted more recovery days. He DIDN'T do more! People need to realize that the only way to get stronger or supercompensated is to first recover. Which can take days just to recover (depending on numerous factors), never mind to grow.
