I like a few points with this discussion, 1 - get the reps and control up and correct 2 - nothing wrong with sticking to the same weight or reps for a few weeks 3 - fraction weight, I bought these and they are great for progressing each week without going noticeably to heavy 4 - stress, work, timing of your workout changing, energy levels for that day all play into progressing, we are not machines, although even if we were we still need maintaining, nuff said, great video, watched it a few times to remind myself that it’s okay to have bad days. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Such a good reminder. I went up in weight on bench press and felt a slight twinge in my shoulder. Time to go back down a bit and focus more on speed and explosion.

I always increase reps before I increase load. I’ll go up to 15-20 reps and when I can comfortably do that for several sessions, I add more weight.

He mentioned that Russian way. I did this without knowing it after my ACL surgery. I wanted to start squatting again. So I started at a measly 100lbs and I would slowly increase my reps to say 3 x 10 reps. Once I got to 9 or 10 reps or even 8 and it felt great. I would bump that weight up to 110lbs. And start over

@@topboi9392 it’s essentially blasting shit loads of volume. So let’s say you squat 135lbs start with 3-4 sets of 8 reps. Then next time do 9 reps then 10, once feel comfortable with you rep range bump it up, and once you hit like 10 reps add weight to the bar and start all over again back down to whatever 6,7,8 reps or so. And build back up again

This approach is one of the best to develop techniques and form. Thanks for this!

I'm so grateful for all of this free information! I've probably watched over a hundred of these

My coach always said don’t add more weight unless you can do 20 reps with it

I LOVE THIS! I'm new and working on my form first. My squat depth has improved and I'm way more confident in the movement itself. For the first time, I'm not trying to slap weight on and really just allowing myself to learn.

With the big compound movements where work low reps (3-7 range) I do what you mentioned where I slow down the reps first. For isolation exercises I have a simple formula. I pick a weight I can do 8 clean reps through 4 sets with. Then next time I try 4 sets of 9 clean reps. Once I can do that I add a rep. Once I can do 4 sets of 15 fully clean reps, I switch to 5 sets of 12. Then once I can do 5 sets of 15 clean reps, I up the weight to a weight I can do 4 sets of 8 clean reps with and start the process over.

@@SamirJzVFX Even if it actually took that long, it's an isolation exercise and it shouldn't be the basis of your muscle building anyway. I just pulled a deadlift PR of 307kg at 195lbs bodyweight. You think I give an actual fuck what my working weight for biceps curls are? What is more impressive, 30kg cheated dumbell curls for 8 shitty reps, or a 140kg bench press? 70kg hamstring curls with your crotch coming off the bench and a whole lotta lower back, or a 200kg squat?

Thanks for the information greatly appreciated.

I like to increase bench after I can pinpress the current 1rm.

What I've been doing right now that's been working is once I'm able to complete all my sets for all my reps without any form breakdown whatsoever for a whole week then I go up 5 lbs. Basically once I master my form with a weight then I move up 5 lbs

Progressive overload 1. Slow down tempo of reps 2. Decrease rest between sets 3. Increase reps 4. Add weight to the bar

@SammyBoyy300

Rest is important, especially for certain muscles

Thanks this was helpful 👍

For bench, if I can do a set of 15 with the weight, I’ll add 5 lbs. Been able to average 5lb a month increase.

For most exercises I shoot for 3 sets of 10. Once I can do 3 sets of 10 with clean form I up the weight. I want to keep my workouts short and sweet so I avoid adding additional reps as that takes longer to complete.

I would add a little weight in the beginning just to get the feeling of accomplishment then perfect your form then add more weight and keep focusing on form.

Biggest problem with adding fractional weights is large plates weight vary more than you think. Unless you have very premium plates. A 45 might actually be 43.7 or 46.2

@strawberryyogurt0

Жыл бұрын

True, but sometimes fractional weights can be used as a psychology edge. Regardless of how much 135-lbs actually weigh, the addition of 0.50 lb or 1 lb on each side of the barbell has a psychological effect.

I’m past my novice/ early intermediate phase and find starting at 5x1 first week, 5x3 following week, and end month with 5x1 increasing weight from 1st set and aim to hit a weight 5lbs heavier while focusing on form each week. I tending to squat Monday& Friday, bench Monday, Press Friday, and Deadlift on Wednesdays. For accuracy I’ll usually perform biceps/ triceps and 200+ band face pulls on M/F, Wednesday I’ll perform work on hamstrings or grip and finish off with car stability such as front or side planks or I’ll pick up a 45lb plate and just walk around gym

Thanks!

Good podcast

So its better I get really good at one weight then maybe move up 5 to 10lbs on the bench possibly? Squat probably the same and deadlift like 10 to 20

I normally go up 1.1/4-2.50 lbs I stay at 175 lbs rep it out , go up to 200 lbs once a month 4 reps max 💪🏿

tbh hes completly right It depends on the muscle as well. Legs are the fastest and your arms will be the slowest

I moved up on biceps every month, til I got to 50lbs DBs, 5lbs increments. My joints couldn't tolerate the load and I was having wrist issues. I'm not a big build, but for someone bigger you absolutely can increase as fast as legs.

I am brand new to bench pressing. Started 6 weeks ago pressing 45 for 5 barely finishing, now pressing 50 for 9. So according to this I keep pressing the 50 until 9 becomes easy...then add reps or weight?

What’s your weight now?

For whatever reason, I find different body parts respond to slightly different approaches to progressive overload. Arms definitely seem to respond to volume increase, but I just go to failure and it takes care of itself, and I rarely increase the weight unless it's taking too long.. Legs, fuck my legs are terrible and barely respond to anything. I've tried heavy, tried light but high volume, tried super slow, tried rest pause. Barely anything happens. Back responds to slightly higher volume, and chest only responds to micro-increases that are made regardless of any increase in reps week to week - with chest I just need to force the issue, so on a progressive bulk, I end up doing pretty low volume by the end, like 3 sets of 4-5 on incline, flat and weighted dips, higher volume for flies, but if I don't force the weight increase, literally nothing happens. I've tried working my way up to 3 sets of 10, and I was stuck at the same weight for a year, with zero visible growth. Arms grew, shoulders got bigger, even legs had some increase, but chest...nothing. I need a safe space and a good cry after looking at my chest.

Do y’all track everything?? I find it a little tedious
