Just recently found this channel. Ordered a template and absolutely have leaned a lot in the short time. Content is great and easy to follow/learn from. Thank you!!
When training a muscle 1 x week on a PPL split is it better to have an A/B exercise selection for each muscle and rotate those every week hitting the same exercise every 2 weeks like in DC training or better to stick to the same exercises weekly for a while then switch them a few mesocycles later?
Why is there a maximum amount of mesocycles you should keep an exercise? What if you're still making consistent strength gains, mesocycles to mesocycles without any pains or aches.
If I'm stuck at a weight and rep range for a certain exercise say 120lb @ 10 reps... should I increase the weight and decrease reps (what range) if I want to get the weight higher then 120lbs ? The goal being the ability to lift heavier with hypertrophy rep ranges. Hope this makes sense.
Try using 125-130lb and train in whatever rep range that lands you in. Alternatively you can decrease load to 110-115lb and work in a higher rep range 👍
Hey you guys how's it going. Just out of curiosity, what makes an exercise a free weight compound exercise and a stable compound exercise I still don't really get the difference between the two?
There is no strict way to differentiate them. Free-weight compounds are those with higher stability demands (more core stabilisation & accessory muscles involved) while stable compounds have more support and less stability demands. Eg. A back squat involves the abs, obliques and spinal erectors to be braced the entire movement, while a leg press doesn't because the back rests on the machine. Hopefully this makes sense 👍
This channel is a hidden GEM...honestly!
Glad to hear it 👍

Then keep the exercise in the program. Usually exercises will become stale after a while 👍

@@FlowHighPerformance1 Ohh ok I see what you're saying now. Thank you!
@@Arthur-kw1cj no problem 👍
How long is a mesocycle? And what is a mesocycle?
