The model that I have been exposed to regarding lactate is that it stimulates an elevation of growth hormone which isn't really hypertrophy-genic but rather functions to heal microtrauma around the body to prevent downstream injuries, and also may cause recompositioning. It also tends to raise blood sugar which can raise insulin a little but HGH may reduce the need for the body to release cortisol in recovery. At any rate, these models tend to suggest that raising lactate with training may be an occasional strategy that helps keep microtrauma in check.

I hear you, but the correlation between acute hormonal changes (inc. growth hormone) and growth is virtually nothing ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oL53nKd3x9_NoYU.html ) But as for microtrauma stuff, it's not something I've looked into, so I cant' be certain lactate is useful or not in this situation :)

@@HouseofHypertrophy The thing about growth hormone is that small increases may not lead to hypertrophy directly, but they can reduce inflammation that can reduce the body's need to elevate cortisol which can lead to insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome and reduced testosterone. Elevating GH is almost certain to result in lower cortisol and lower insulin resistance over a period of many months which probably improves the overall environment for building muscle. The best way to raise GH without injecting it however is to keep insulin levels low between 10:00 pm and 2:00 pm during sleep.

But if you slowly lift down you create more mechanical tension. And it don't even have to be slow, just don't let the weight drop back down without controlling it. So really you just have to make sure you're controlling it on the way down. I personally see a lot of people just let it drop down instead of actually controlling it on the way down and when you do that you're letting gravity cheat the exercise. Because instead of you controlling it and actually lifting it downwards you just let gravity pull it down for you.

I think the distinction between "Lactic Acid" and "Lactate" is very pedantic at best. All acids hydrolyse to release H+ ions in aqueous solutions. Lactic Acid in Blood or Water will break down into Lactate and H+ ions anyway This is probably why they mentioned adding "hydrogen" and "lactate", although it's very misleading as you shouldn't be pumping molecular hydrogen into your muscles or bloodstream. More probably, they injected Lactic Acid which broke down into H+ and Lactate

You're correct, but I still think it's worth understanding. Most studies that people think measure lactic acid are truly looking at lactate (not even the associated hydrogen ions).

It could be argued that lactate is just a unprotonated form of lactic acid. They are often used interchangeably since they tend to be in a chemichal equilibrium, which means they are both present in a solution and they come back and forth all the time. The equilibrium is possibly leaning to the lactate much more than to the acid lactic though. I studied this some years ago and not necessarily applied to muscles so I might be wrong. If so correct me please.

The idea of injecting lactate into the muscles and expecting muscle growth I think is kind of missing the mark. The idea that "lactic acid" or the burn is related to muscle growth is tied to the exercise you are doing. So people believe if you're doing the exercises correctly/optimally you feel the burn. Just injecting lactate and studying how that effects muscle growth isn't really disproving that hypothesis so I think is a bad way to design a study.

Lactate and hydrogen ions floating around independently and dissociated from one another is not the same as lactic acid (lactate and hydrogen bonded)...

Do you think that different lifters will have different bottle necks to their total hypertrophy when they enter a study? E.g., someone has all the cellular machinery and just needs more total Muscle Protein Synthesis Another Lifter has capped on MPS but needs more satellite cell integration Another Lifter has plenty of cellular nuclei but needs more ribosome biogenisis Yet another is doing fine on all the cellular requirements but needs adaptation in blood vessels and other architectural components I am tending to think that if more studies had a longer length, e.g. 24 or 36 or even 48 weeks, we would see that the people who adapted well to an initial stimulus (presumably because it supports reducing their particular bottleneck) might fall off towards the end of the study as other factors became the primary limit. I think there must be hidden variables other than just MPS in order to make sense of the individual response data to the different training protocols. Maybe metabolite build-up is very stimulatory to adaptations for blood flow, and that might be just the thing for a certain individual.

@@HouseofHypertrophy I don't understand your rationale. You basically say that recruiting more fibers, which happens close to failure, would increase tension. Why would you think that? To me the opposite would be logical: Force distributed over more fibers _lowers_ tensions per fiber
@HouseofHypertrophy Жыл бұрын
I think you're mistaking tension for the overall load used, this is a common mistake folks make with mechanical tension. So yes, that load is distributed over more fibers, but that's not what mechanical tension is. Tension is specific to each muscle fiber and is equal to the force that muscle fiber produces (the force generated by the contractile and passive elements in the fiber). Mechanosensors within a muscle fiber detect these contractile and passive forces generated by that fiber, and then can covert it into a signaling cascade that results in hypertrophy of that fiber. So to maximize *overall* mechanical tenison, we just want to expose as many fibers as possible to tension for a decent duration (as each of these fibers will experience mechanical tension and thus hypertrophy). This is done by training to or close to failure, as it ensures we ultimately recruit as many fibers as possible and ensures each fiber has been exposed to a fairly decent duration of tension. Hope this makes sense, let me know if anything else is not clear! :)
@ghffthhhu Жыл бұрын
@@HouseofHypertrophy Yes, I get the concept you are describing, thanks. I still doubt the conclusion about that close to failure is the (only) way to get there. Is it not true as well, that one equally can recruit more fibers as the same time through just increaing load (so weight)? The reason I am into that is that I prefer more load a lot over closer to failure for reasons of preserving form and lowering fatigue. Another side question is also if tension induced HT is local to the exact fiber which experienced the tension. Maybe you know, I have no clue. In other words: Might it be that a fiber A induces the signaling cascade due to experienced tension, but the result in form of protein syntesis hits also the surrounding fibers? After all, I think it was observed that training e.g. the left leg only _even_ leads to HT in the right one.

I have a barely related question. You have done a number of videos that I've watched where BFR has come up. In all cases, BFR was shown by the research that you've looked at to have no benefit. So, my question is whether BFR has any benefits at all.
@HouseofHypertrophy Жыл бұрын
I'd say BFR is useful for seeing great hypertrophy with very light loads that may be beneficial in situations where an individual cannot tolerate higher loads (injury, rehabbing, the elderly, etc.)

is the tension from 6-8 rep sets greater than from 15-20 rep sets? does it matter? there is many OG bodybuilders like Lee Priest or Kevin Levrone who always mentioned that to put on muscle the rep range should be 6-8 rep sets and free weights over machines
@T.R.A.I.N.I.N.G. Жыл бұрын
different modalities produce different forms of mechanical tension, so it's better you try them all and see what results you get than listen to an individual bodybuilder's opinion as if it were gospel

@@hemant1176 you are very wrong there, there is plenty of powerlifters on roids that look like absolute garbage because they don't train properly for size, and there is plenty of naturals that look AMAZING due to training properly for size, the training principles are the same if u are natural or not, most naturals are small because they don't train enough neither eat enough

@@HouseofHypertrophy Don't worry I'm being mostly sarcastic. BUT... there are a few studies around testosterone without a resistance training program where the subjects built a lot of muscle (more than those training), so there does seem to be some other pathway for hypertrophy that doesn't involve mechanical tension.

This non professional is wrong in many ways. His super slow video has a major flaw- he doesn’t understand SS training should have the negative portion slower then positive (contraction) as your negative is stronger then positive. 4 positive and 6 second negative or 2/8 is more beneficial. And body weight exercises are not a waste. This video is just sad. Especially that he used leg extensions which is a horrible exercise and any educated fitness professional like myself knows the damage it causes is not worth the benefits unless maybe your a pro and earn $ by lifting. Please guys- stay away
