      Anon Ymous Yup because steroid use refutes logic and scientific study. If you stay this close minded because someone uses PED's you're gonna miss out on some great advice. Guess Ed Coans a dumby too who just got by on roids....

Specifically what can be debunked out of this video i'm incredibly interested at this point since you seem to know it all.

    • @FalafelManiac
      @FalafelManiac 7 років тому +2

      Although Dr. Mike has a lot of muscle mass, you are misguided to assume it is the product of PEDs, rather than years consistent training with dialed-in nutrition. Unlike most in this industry, he analyzes the literature on sports nutrition, exercise science, etc. and produces advice based on that evidence in combination with practical experience.

    Awesome vid! I think there is a typo at 4:15 ish. I think it's supposed to say hypercaloric (caloric surplus) and not hypocaloric (caloric deficit) when in a mass phase. I think Mike says hypercaloric. I just wanted to point it out so there aren't misunderstandings.

  • @erikec67
    @erikec67 7 років тому +6

    It's cracks me up how often powerlifters will bulk during the peak. Guys, you aren't building muscle at this time, most of the surplus is going to fat. Then they cut during the hypertrophy phase, which means they don't have a surplus to actually build muscle. The biggest misunderstanding that new powerlifters have is thinking they are building muscle during the peak because they are able to lift heavier weights. It's your CNS becoming better at handling the heavier weights, not your muscles getting bigger. Your muscles get bigger when you increase the volume and reps, that's when to bulk. It becomes an endless cycle of gaining weight and losing weight without actually ever building muscle.

    • @jrg305
      @jrg305 7 років тому

      There is a fallacy that everyone believes you maintain muscle during any weight loss. Maybe in beginners, but people watching these videos are just gaining and losing muscle as they change to hypercal or hypocal diets. The body just keeps a certain proportion of body fat relative to your frame size. You have higher amounts at higher weights. You can't maintain all your gains at lower weights. I've done this a number of times. I'm stronger and can do more volume at high weights e.g 184 lbs at 5'10". I'm lean and look good in pics at 175, feel healthier and can actually run, but I'm weaker and can't lift as much. There is no magic diet or phase. This shit is the same old stuff years and years and people are still trying to find the holy grail of training technique.

    Just dropping a note here to let you guys know that there's very few good resources for vegan, plant-based powerlifters and weightlifters. Our plant-based diet is amazing, it clears my skin, saves our family money, is a great influence for my kids, great on my digestive system, pretty much great all around. But it is super hard to get enough calorie intake and protein to sustain my lifting goals! I actually called in with this question to mind pump podcasts and they told me to eat more meat. Not the best answer I was looking for.

    Dr. Mike, quick question about your final thoughts on keeping body weight/size the same during the Strength/Peaking phase. What about athletes that cut 10-15 pounds for a competition right before weigh-ins. Could you argue that decrease in performance in competition could be not only attributed to nutrition going into the weight cut but also a lack of familiarity with the body at that weight?

  • @BigFred458
    @BigFred458 6 років тому +3

    I was a bit surprised by the higher volume while losing weight. I have heard most recently (from other sources) that you want to lift heavy while trying to lose body-fat and the heavy lifting at a lower volume or the same volume will signal the body it needs to maintain muscle mass. While I do see the CNS component, I actually am not 100% convinced that training heavy is training the CNS to greater efficiency or to come closer to potential strength. Nor am I convinced that training heavy does not trigger muscle growth unless a persons genetics are extremely non-hypertrophic [ want to say endomorphic]. One observation that throws the CNS/Hypertrophic model off for me is that when a person loses body-mass, he or she will usually become weaker and may never re-gain the strength until he/she put the mass back on. In general greater mass = greater strength [ in general- there are specific people this is not true, however I believe those people have other genetic advantages e.g. tendon strength, ability to coordinate all the muscles better to perform a lift, etc.]. Strength goes up with (1) training and (2) anabolism and finely (3) technical accumin in the lift aka practice, practice, practice. Anabolism is maintained by the process of "eating" and in strength sports anabolism is in a general way equated with greater strength. For the historic power or strength athletes you have (1) natural strength base [muscle/tendons, insertions, build] (2) lifting, lifting, lifting (3) eating, eating, eating. That anabolism is not consistently muscle gains but seems to be both muscle and fat [ in some more muscle, in some more fat], but that anabolism is seen in all great strength athletes competing at the top of their weight limitation or just at top weight if open lifting.

    • @Huanglin1234
      @Huanglin1234 5 років тому

      agreed. I just lift the same way when dieting down and try as much as possible to retain strength, so that when I start eating at a surplus, the muscle and strength will come back faster and I'll get better than I was before

    Hey there - I am trying to lose body fat but also strength train. I guess should I be doing the peaking or the high volume?
    Also - can you explain to me what strength/peaking looks like in a gym? I am doing about three sets of four exercises each on a certain body area with heavy weights. Is this “strength/peaking” or “high volume”?
    I’m a 29 year old female.

    • @FalafelManiac
      @FalafelManiac 7 років тому +1

      I get what you are saying, but according to broscience, they intentionally do very high reps and light weights...probably like a lot of metabolic work 15 reps plus. Dr. Mike is suggesting focusing on standard hypertrophy work (maybe 8-15 reps) rather than working in a dedicated strength block in the 3-6 rep range for example.

    • @jamescowan1313
      @jamescowan1313 7 років тому +2

      I wouldn't bother generalizing an entire population's preference on "high reps" but 8-15 is typical for a bodybuilder. Not to mention, rep ranges aren't a great definition of volume. If I'm doing 10 sets of 3 with my 8RM with only 15 second rest intervals. That's high volume and hypertrophic. Regardless, I get your point. My comment was mostly sarcastic.

    • @cellardoor8943
      @cellardoor8943 7 років тому +1

      i don't think 10 sets of 3 is hypertrophy training...sets of 6-10 reps with 65%-75% is hypertrophy for strength athletes.

  • @Billg0615
    @Billg0615 7 років тому +2

    On a side note, what about dieting at the end of a phase, say a deload? Just curious if the reduced volume would still elicit muscle gain/ fat loss like that of say your overreaching/previous week or if maintenance would be smarter with the reduced volume. Or does it pertain more so to the overarching goal of the phase? Or am I overthinking this way too much? lol

    • @rudimentaryschizo2799

    • @boxerfencer
      @boxerfencer 7 років тому

      What do you think will happen if you're eating hypercalorically and then decide to reduce activity by going into a deload while continuing to eat the same?

    • @Billg0615
      @Billg0615 7 років тому +1

      Well, if you eat the "same", you would gain excessive weight. But that really isn't the question. Hypo, Hyper, and Isocaloric diets are all relative. In other words, if you burn 4000 kcal a day and eat 4200 kcal, its a hypercaloric diet for that day. If you only burn 2000 kcal a day due to a decrease in activity, but eat 2200 kcal, its still a hypercaloric diet. What I'm trying to say is, in a deload, is it still worth eating in a hypercaloric diet RELATIVE to your activity because of your body adapting to the stimulus you have provided it with, or not because your activity is so low that your excess intake is going to go to mostly fat. I would guess the first, but figured I should ask.

    • @georgemarkaryan6941
      @georgemarkaryan6941 7 років тому

      Deload is a low volume (micro)phase, therefore maintenance would be optimal diet-wise.

      Maintenance implies you are eating the same amount of food. When you are recomping you are basically doing a mini cut and mini bulk every week. It technically is long term maintenance. But doing a 4 week bulk followed by 4 week cut is also long term maintenance no?

      Keep in mind, spot fact reduction aka "losing it from the belly" is physiologically impossible. The only way to decrease fat in one area is to decrease total body fat. You can't make it pull more from a certain area no matter how to train or what you eat or what you take.

    • @williambrown7437
      @williambrown7437 7 років тому +1

      Track your lifts, most likely you are still making large increases on a regular basis you still fall into the news lifter category and can lose small amounts of fat and gain muscle on a slight hypocaloric diet. Is that the best approach? Maybe, maybe not, but it is possible to achieve just depends on your goals.
