I extend much gratitude to you for the information you so freely share and for the way you share it.

Those are very great tips for beginners. Just the most important stuff.

You hit the nail on the head with the beginner programming. I spent a year doing a split that was given to me by a PT I hired a few times. He got me to do A LOT of machine weights. Ended up completely wasting my time. Switched to a 3-4 day 5x5 full body routine, concentrating on big compound movements with no machine weights. Although that rep range was not optimal for bodybuilding, I still put on a substantial amount of muscle. I did that routine for a while. Changed it so it was more bodybuilding focused, increased rep ranges, added more accessories and variations, introduced sprinting too. My physique got way more aesthetic. Immediately received way more compliments.

Finally someone mentioning Reverse grip bench. About two years ago I switched my incline bench for low incline reverse grip bench and the upper part of my chest started to grow especially upper inner corner. Extremely overlooked exercise I think.

After listening to you I think my problem is not eating enough. Ive always kept fit but Im in my third year of training and haven’t seen much change in my physique despite training hard 3 times per week.

Underrated

I’ve been training for 2 years. I started after losing a decent amount of weight and got abs. At my age (51), I never thought I’d have abs so, I’ve been hanging onto them…until recently. Im eating for size now and feel Im making gains faster than when I started (delayed newbie gains?). I’ve also just started experimenting with the advanced stuff from your book such as rest pause sets (digging that). It could be a result of both. I wonder if I can still get any newbie gains that I left on the table trying to keep abs.

"HILLOCK" ahahaha, great little nod to those in the know

Not enough sleep consistently has been my greatest lifestyle limiting factor for my growth. My schedule is so hectic... it needs to change.

Yeah, ankle flexibility is big. Stretch those calves. Also practice the squat motion while deliberately maintaining equal weight distribution along your entire foot.

Good info. I liked your section on the necessity to get stronger and add weight to your 20 rep max etc. How would you feel about just continually adding reps at the same weight though? Obviously volume is going up which I guess would be the most important factor.

@GVS

3 жыл бұрын

Depends on the exercise, the overall structure of your plan, even personality. Some people just like to dominate a weight (turn 5RM to 10RM) before adding weight. Others like to just add weight with the same reps. Still others like powerlifters add even more weight and reduce reps across a mesocycle. Lots of ways to do it. Generally, intensity (weight on the bar) will emphasize strength, while volume will be more for size.

Agree man, big compounds is what needs to be done for size when you're natural. Bro splits also seem to be especially bad for hypertrophy. In my first year I did full body 3 times a week and even though my strength gains were kinda slow because of high volume and not too much recovery time, my size gains were so much better than other people's with different splits. I gotta admit each training session was about 3 hours though because I did a shitload of exercises :D. Squat, Bench, Rows, OHP, Pullups/Pulldown + some flies every day. Might have been a little bit overkill in retrospect. I also agree that counting calories atleast for a little while can be useful for beginners. Just to get some experience and a better feeling for calorie density / protein content, especially in regular staple meals. Overall great advice bro!

I have scorleose therefore Mist be careful with squats. Leg Extension, Leg curls, Back Extension with hipflexion Focus. Next day: shoulder/Arms. Usualy then a Rest day. Next Back/Chest 2. 2 exercises Back high weight and 3 exercises Chest Focus Isolation (Flys, some machine Work). Next Leg 2 (Focus on squats AS mentioned lower weight because of scorleose but full Rom, Rumänien deadlifts, aductor and abductor Work), next shoulder/Arms again. Sometimes i Put in the Rest day after Leg. Depends on how i feel. Also every second time i Mix Chest/Back 1 and do Higher incline for Chest and decline or weighted Dips afterwards AS second exercise. (Usualy 15,% incline and dumbell flat). Quite a Mix, i know. But fits for me and Makes Fun, too.

You might be letting yourself recover too much. I used to have this problem because I thought it was detrimental to muscle growth if you ‘train too hard’ but as soon as I started going to the gym 6 days a week rather than 3-4 days I started seeing results. Also make sure you eat a lot. Of actual food too. And yeah trying to handle stress and getting enough sleep is obviously important.

When I started lifting doing Stronglifts years ago, I realized I was missing out on a lot by not doing any isolation movements at all. I thought barbell rows would make my biceps bigger but they didn't. I think it's a huge mistake for a novice lifter to only do the compound movements

i dont know why bro splits get so much hate, in way u do end up working out the same muscle group more that once because if u do chest one day and triceps another day u still end up hitting triceps more than once a week (chest is also worked because i am doing close grip press on the day i do triceps). i tried doing fullbody 3 times a week but it just was not working out for me, it wasn't that i was super sore all the time, i was just exhausted throughout the week, so i tried another week where i reduced my intensity(only taking my last set to failure vs all my working sets) for my fullbody workout, but still the same results i felt fucking dead at the end of the week and unsatisfied because i couldn't go all-out on my lifts. I have seen the best results on the "bro splits" which if done right do end up hitting the same muscle 2 times a week, even though the intensity is very different but i feel like it allows for better recovery. that being said i haven't being lifting for very long which might play a part in it.

You can, even in a deficit, but not for long, and not very much.

Lifestyle. Me and the girlfriend enjoy wine far too much. Training is going great but weight loss is another matter :) .

Heh, it's true.

I've been gyming about 3 years now, consistently...and when people start with this "natural" talk, my answer is simple...if you're taking any kind of supplementation, then you're not natural... I don't take any enhancers, or steroids, yet I dont consider myself as natural, because I do take creatine, protein whey and preworkout... Only if you are completely natural, with no enhancers OR supplements of any kind, and get all your nutrients from complete natural sources, then can you say you're natural, but the moment you are supplementing with protein whey ( which isn't exactly natural ) or creatine ( again it's not "natural", it manufactured and bottled ) or you use some preworkout mix ( again it's Manufactured and bottled ) then you're not natural...so in other words almost all of us that gym that use any or some kind of supplementation or enhancers, we are not natural...discussion ended...

Everyone has their own definition, but keep in mind yours is a very unusual one, that most people won't agree with. I won't argue with you as there's no point :)

@@GVS I know it's a very unusual way to look at at...and most definitely most would not agree with me. But at the end of the day I know it's just an opinion...
