lifting heavy weights is not the reason for strength gains. It's just the proof you already got stronger. As said strength is neural. The brain doesn't know the weight. It's all about ones EFFORT! Exerting max effort is the driver for strength gains. It's possible to exert max effort to any resistance. It's just much more practical to use high resistance.
damn this is great stuff! So much fitness stuff is all about hypertrophy, not enough pure strength. I guess the best would be to cycle the two training styles?
Yes, when you put on new muscle, your body hasn't trained itself to activate all the new muscle fibers. So training heavy teaches you to express your real strength. This is why you see "pretty boy" muscles from people who only do high reps. Depending on your weight and size goals, cycling between the two is a great tactic. I'll cover that in the future.
@@TrainAllSports How to get skin as hard as iron and how to fire destructive blast waves of spiritual energy from a single finger. lol Bleach reference. But really. Right now, this and your other vid on strength building by way of heavy loads @ low reps with a rapid lift and slow-timed lowering technique along with velocity training, was plenty of info for me for now. Thank you for these vids and for asking if there was anything else. I'm definitely gonna check out the rest of your channel.
so If I do a 3x5 plan (Day A: Squats, Benchpress, Row and Day B: Sqquats, Shoulder Press, Deadlift) I can achieve getting stronger without growing lots of muscle mass?
Correct me if I'm wrong. So muscle hypertrophy should increase your potential strength but the other way around you make better use of you muscle mass and therefore you can excert more power.
more muscle fibers can increase your potential. Yes. But you need to train to recruit those muscles fibers or they are pretty boy muscles that don't actually do work athletically.
Does working a physical job during the day Monday through Friday slow down gym strength gains? Granted, I'm in my 40's... but I've been doing alot of low rep, heavier weight for 19 weeks so far and have only improved by roughly 30 lbs for different lifts.
@TrainAllSports Thank you sir. And I appreciate the response. And I kinda figured it did. Like my body keeps trying to adapt to two different workouts. Lol.
@@muslimmetalman yes more time will definitely increase your gains. But, you will quickly run into needing more advanced nutrition from the demand on your body. But, I think that's a good thing.
That's going to depend on many factors such as prior experience, loading, volume, the cycle, current lifestyle, diet and many more. I wouldn't do more than 2-3 per week per target area.
@@jude-7777 there is always a limit. You should think more metabolically. If your constantly needing your body to synthesize hormones, proteins, glucose etc, it will burn out. Thinking strictly about muscle when getting more advanced workouts is not the best strategy.
@@TrainAllSports My understanding of neuromuscular training is that it encompasses far more than a muscular target area (e.g. Bruce Lee whole body involvement). So your advice makes, at least, conventional sense. I've been workingout 6 day/week with gains (alternating extension and contraction and upper and lower combinations as variables. What will I now do with the offdays... plyometrics or just sunbathing by the pool?
An insane amount of weight on a weighted vest or a lot of resistance from bands. The effort has to be maximum neuromuscular activation. I'm not 100% sure this type of strength training will work for calestetics. Calesthetics is a different type of training but you can try with what I said earlier.
I make videos from a athletic training background which requires weight training to be competitive. Calestetics aren't in my wheel house. Wish I could give you a better answer.
damn i was doing this in high school and didn’t even know it. i always tried to get bigger but never did and only got stronger.
Your living proof of the concept in action!

Yes I have been waiting for another part
👊
This is exactly the info I've been looking for for years
What else you wanna know?

@@SteveGames24 idk if I can do that 🤣
@@TrainAllSports I'm pretty sure I have to die and assume soul form first.
Not in any rush lol
u are to much underrated
Thank you for the kind words
Very informative😊😊😊 thank you😊😊😊
You expalined everything you should be getting more attention
thank you for the feedback.
so If I do a 3x5 plan (Day A: Squats, Benchpress, Row and Day B: Sqquats, Shoulder Press, Deadlift) I can achieve getting stronger without growing lots of muscle mass?
Yes! Then, add in some isometric and eccentric accessory work and you will be on a great path
Nice editing
Thank you for the feedback. I push to get better editing every video.
This is easily a 50K sub channel.
Thanks for the postive feedback. UA-cam doesn't like the that I cant post all the time. But, I do what I can for now.

Yesssssirrrr
🤘
Can a strong benchpress Even help me produce a lot of force to jump higher?
actually, yes it can. I describe the concept here: ua-cam.com/video/Aih7lk0CUiw/v-deo.html

yeah it can. Lifestyle is a big part of it.
@TrainAllSports Thank you sir. And I appreciate the response. And I kinda figured it did. Like my body keeps trying to adapt to two different workouts. Lol.
How about losing weight and getting stronger?
Nutrient rich food, reduce the calories from current baseline, and lift heavy.
would you say there's a potential in doing high volume on this?
High volume will grow your muscles. So, not the intention of this video. Could you expand a little more on what you mean by potential?
@@TrainAllSports meaning is it possible to perhaps increase gains by doing a ton of volume (i have plenty of time to be at the gym!)
@@muslimmetalman oh yeah, more time will force adaptions faster
@@muslimmetalman yes more time will definitely increase your gains. But, you will quickly run into needing more advanced nutrition from the demand on your body. But, I think that's a good thing.
What is optimum number of workouts per 7-day period for Bench, Squat, Deadlift, Row, Hip Thrust and Pullup?
If the muscle is not being torn down and rebuilt (hypertrophy), is there any limit to the number of successive training days for strength training?
That's going to depend on many factors such as prior experience, loading, volume, the cycle, current lifestyle, diet and many more. I wouldn't do more than 2-3 per week per target area.

Is 5*5 is the way?
if you have never done it before it can be
What about calisthenics?
