    00:00 Intro
    1:31 Part 1: The New Research
    5:59 Part 2: Longer Lengths = More Growth?
    As mentioned in the video, lengthened supersets produced an average 0.62mm (as determined by the Bayesian analysis) more growth.
    Measuring muscle growth (which was done by measuring muscle thickness via ultrasound in the new study) comes with errors. The authors of this paper took 2 measurements before and after the study and reported that the typical error (TE) ranged from 0.18mm to 0.39mm. 0.62mm is above the typical error.
    Yet, I've seen some reference other research (such as this paper: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9246410/ ) to suggest the typical error of muscle thickness measurements for the medial gastrocnemius can range between 1.3mm to 2.1mm.
    Strictly speaking, this isn't the typical error of the measurement. Rather, it is what we call the minimum detectable change (MDC). Generally, MDC is calculated by multiplying the typical error by 1.96 √2
    Anyhow, due to these MDC values (1.3-2.1mm), some suggest measurement error clouds our ability to sincerely say lengthened supersets grew the medial gastrocnemius more.
    However, I think there are a few things to keep in mind.
    First and foremost, the error of the measurement can vary between studies (the skill of the person taking the measurement is one such factor that contributes to this variation), and using the typical errors reported in the new study, we can calculate their MDC ranged from 0.5mm to 1.1mm (thus slightly better precision than the other study example).
    Secondly, typical error and MDC are generally used to determine if a group or condition saw an increase (which is called within-group/condition changes), rather than compare two different conditions/groups (which is called between group/condition changes). Although, since MDC may generally give us a value to think about error, I understand why some may use it to compare between group/conditions changes. But just keep in mind in all the exercise science studies I've read, I've yet to come across a study discussing typical error or MDC in the context of comparing changes between two groups.
    Thirdly, it goes both ways. Measurement error can lead to the overestimation of an effect or an underestimation (i.e. the difference between lengthened supersets and normal training could have been greater than 0.62mm).
    Fourthly, when it comes to hypertrophy, I think using the MDC to determine if there's a true change between conditions/groups might be too strict. As noted in the video, muscle growth is a slow process. Most studies just last 6-12 weeks, and in the timeframe, we generally see a within-group/condition increase in muscle thickness of 1-2mm for the calves. Needing a difference equal to or greater than 1.1mm to say there was a difference between groups might be too unrealistic.
    Finally, when our data suggests there could be a difference between groups (even if the difference is below values of the MDC), using other literature to inform our decision could be worthwhile. In the context of this lengthened superset study, we have other research (the broader literature on training muscles at longer length) which would suggest lengthened supersets may indeed build more muscle.

      I see this idea as encouraging absolute breakdown in form toward the end of the superset. I would be more inclined to do sets with perfect reps that are followed by concentrating on the eccentric for the second part of each rep. Using your muscles in reverse provides a great deal of strength.

So even if it is an effect of more volume, it is directly related to the lengthened supersets because of the nature of reaching failure and then doing more.

      ​@@_interl1nked I recommend checking out his youtube channel, mountaindog1.
      But his general approach to training was to hit a muscle in 3 or 4 different ways over a workout.
      First, a movement that gives excellent mind-muscle connection. Second, a movement that puts the muscle under immense tension (this is cut out for some of the smaller muscle groups, like biceps). Third, movement done with some high-intensity/beyond failure technique (e.g. myoreps, dropsets, etc). And last, a movement that emphasizes a deep stretch ROM.
      For example, on chest you might do slight-incline dumbbell press (gives a lot of people great connection to their pecs), barbell bench press, machine press (so it's safe to fail), then finally flyes for that deep stretch.

  • @Claframb
    @Claframb Місяць тому +155

    Partials, cheat reps, isometrics, negatives and forced reps are generally easier to do than full ROM rep. If you think about it, these types of techniques are actually used as a dropset so you're getting an additional set done in a short amount of time. IMO for this reason, a lot of HIT training was actually 2 top sets, not one: a topset and a dropset.

I've been bb'ing for almost 17 years and I almost always work in the 0-1RIR range in worksets. And it's only the last 2 reps when it gets difficult! Thus anything below that is still easy and even with my experience it would be very hard to guesstimate 3RIR! Basically it's just the point BEFORE it gets difficult. I think it was Mike from RP who talked about this 3RIR method and I thought it was ridiculous, u are basically cutting the effective reps in half, thus leaving gains on the table, maybe not even making any gains at all...

      Nothing about it is cheating. Rather than hyper extending or full range lock out of the exercise, you'll see and feel better results with partial - almost but not full range motion keeping constant resistance and time under tension on the muscle. By the time you're done, I guarantee you that you'll feel more fullness in the targeted muscle group. Also keep a tempo in mind. slow towards the point of resistance and explosive lifts.

    I've been doing this intuitively for a long time. I also beyond-failure negative-only sets. For example in the triceps rope pull-downs, once you reach failure (no ability to pull the rope down anymore), use your body to sink down (squat or stay on one knee) and then rise up again fast, leaving your arms fully extended, then slowly perform the eccentric portion of the tricep pulldown (rope going up slowly and controlled using the triceps only).

He then started doing lengthened partials push-ups and got gains very rapidly.
    Lengthned partials is something I will try to implement, in my training. Today I did four reps in that state because I was exhausted (cooked actually) and wanted to finish my set, and immediately noticed the time under tension and stretch is simply insane. It almost feels like an isometric contraction, the tension is continued, so does the stretch.

    What I've been doing and have seen progress with is doing my partials first and then 'supersetting' with the full range of motion reps. So doing 10, long length partials and then immediately trying to do as many full range of motion reps that I can. Been incredibly painful but instead of just feeling that burn on the last rep or 2, now it's easily for almost the entire set of full range reps.

    Been consistently using lengthend focused training since the first few studies came out and it has been highly effective. One arm cable rows with versa gripps are my go to back exercise. On the lengthened side the unilateral movement allows me to side bend and feel a lat stretch all the way down at its lower insertion near C3/C4. I will do 5-20 full reps from that lengthened position to handle at my side. Then I do 5-20 more reps up until my elbow reaches my side then I will do 5-20 more essentially shoulder shrugs with a straight arm. When I can comfortably hit 15-20 on each portion I move up in weight and start back at 5. I keep my lower back at a stable angle slightly forward but to que rounding of the upper back to maximize stretch. I have consistently been able to make gains over the past 6-9 months starting at 75 lbs and I now use 105 lbs for my working sets. Unilateral is great for really milking the stretch and maximizing SFR (stimulus to fatigue ratio). If you don't have good straps like versa gripps are you really even training your back?

    like with a dumbell curl you curl it up and then when you let the weight go down and focus on the essentric where you have to
    work against gravity then the full stretch after the maximum essentric has been reached that stretch seems to give in both my
    calves and biceps the biggest growth. started applying this for me and my gymbro and our calve size has sky rocketed, my bro
    his calves were almost non existent and now we applying this after 3 years of training and only now we see significant growth in

    My favorite superset method is eccentric overload, at the same weight or greater, although I don't know what the data is on them.
    The biggest issue is they are physically exhausting so I can only really do them on machines. For example:
    I'll do leg press to failure then use my arms to assist lifting the weight and lowering it slower.
    Or I'll do leg extensions/curls to failure, then lower the weight about 10% and lift with both legs and lower slowly with one leg at a time (alternating).

    I think people should be really careful implementing this into their training routine, once they get to know how their body recovers/adapts to resistance training. Because, although lengthened partials do show increase in muscle growth, the recovery is the tricky part. It might postpone their next training session, and potentially miss those potential gains, just an introspective.

    Of course lengthened partials are more effective than full ROM.
    It's because it's impossible to keep muscle tension high during full ROM. Every full ROM exercise has parts with very little tension (top half of a most pushing and bottom part of most pulling exercises).
