I would love to hear you guys talk about either Bulgarian style training or soviet style training cause those are pretty popular in their use of intensity even though most of those lifters had insane doping regiments. If you get the opportunity it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on Zack Telander's videos on programming for max strength, he is an olympic weightlifting coach.

Freakin love it! Hey! I'd love for you guys to break down the 5 x 5 program. I think that program is what blew-out my pelvic floor and sent me through months and months of rehab. I would love to get your thoughts on it. Thanks so much for EVERYTHNIG that ya'll do!

I've got MAPS Anabolic and I'm on my second cycle . Great program, love it. But how the fuck do you guys do 5x5 for squats or deadlifts.. then go do heavy EVERYTHING ELSE 🤣🤣 Like I said this is my second cycle of it and I'm having to split it into a kinda upper/lower because I just do not have the juice to do that much heavy lifting in one session. By the time I get to biceps I'm shot lol

@josephwebb4532 2 жыл бұрын

@@SuperSteelSteve I like to change the order of the workout sometimes. Work back to front so that you aren't always depleting yourself on the same exercises. It might mean your squat is a few kgs lesser on the day it's not your first exercise but this has worked for me. Though I do prefer the compound lifts at the start as they're obviously the core movements.

Well if you're powerlifting (competing) all you need to care about is how you perform in competition for those lifts. You're not scored on physique or ancillary lifts. So any good powerlifting would focus on getting enough practice in those lifts. Any other excercises are just there to help you perform better in the big 3

Hey guys i love the podcast. Recently i have been introduced to Smolov and Smolov jr programs and have been fascinated by the proven results from this program. I understand that these are very sport specific for powerlifting or strongman athletes and although would love to try i feel like neglecting the other lifts for the 3/4 week programme would be such a loss in those movements with just one lift getting stronger. Have you guys ever run a specific programme for a single lift over a certain time, did you lose strength in the other lifts or how did you integrate maintenace in those lifts whilst focusing on building the other?

When I first started lifting I did GVT on all my compounds

@SlotCar2021 Жыл бұрын

I have used GVT a fair bit with great results but feel it is excessive for natural lifters, 5 sets with more frequency is a lot better. Recently, I have been doing 3 working sets on each compound exercise in a 10 rep range, so squats or deads, dB chest and overhead press then latt pull, seated row and some core work on day 2 twice a week (4 workouts a week) 40 min sessions. I have added 10-15kg on each exercise and put on a solid 1 kg muscle in 5-6 weeks. It's often sub max simplistic training that is the most effective. I have been a PT for 16 years and the biggest mistake people make is going to a gym and killing themselves every session. Volume Is the key when it comes to muscle or strength but frequency gets over looked and putting it all into a periodised plan and proper program then turns it into something way more effective. It is all person specific too as a 25 year old would be able to recover and deal with GVT alot better vs a 35 year old.

I’d be curious to hear your take on the application of plyometrics and techniques meant to emphasize the speed of contraction. A greater speed of contraction will recruit a greater number of motor units, but it will sacrifice intramuscular force production and therefore possibly an optimal hypertrophic stimulus. Perhaps there’s an ideal mixture?

He also talks a little about how it fires the CNS as it introduces moves uncommonly used. The movements seem flashy and may have some value but I am curious to hear the opinion of you three on this one.

I feel like it would be interesting to hear y’all talk about “kinobody” programs made by Greg O Gallagher. They seem cool and it caught my intention especially the way he markets the program with names like “Warrior and Greek God physique” the whole program is based off RTP (Reverse Pyramid Training)

My daughter has been doing the Beach Body workouts and enjoys doing them. So my wife and I are now getting up at 4:50am to do the program. I’m not completely sold on this program but at least I’m being more consistent. Can you compare that style of training to your programs.

I love this comment. I did the original Beach Body & P90X when I was in college. I was in phenomenal shape - I also worked at a gym & did fitness modelling at the time. For most people, those programs will work if you stick with them. It becomes a question of whether you can stay on the nutrition plan long-term.

“HOW CROSSFIT ALMOST HAD IT RIGHT” It would be cool to hear you guys critique crossfit programming and how it could be done better and safer. You guys have talked about the problems with crossfit before, but it does seem to produce athletes with insane strength, endurance and athleticism. So what could they do differently to make it less crazy / dangerous but still produce similar results?

“functional bodybuilding” by Marcus Filly seems to shoot for this… it’d be cool for you guys to interview him

I would like to hear you critique maps anabolic for someone who has been lifting steadily for a couple of years. Despite never having used any formal workout program, my first tendency is to want to just skip over anabolic in favor of something with more volume, like aesthetic. I know you suggest most people do anabolic first though, so I am wondering what the pros and cons is for starting out anabolic vs aesthetic.

Maps Anabolic because I thought it would be placed after performance and before aesthetics.

On the topic of GVT being too limited with joint angles, what are your guys' thoughts on using what would be secondary movement for gvt instead like a close grip or dumbbell bench, landmine rows, belt squats, etc
