Biceps and abs are cool and all, but you know what really turns heads in the gym?
Being strong. Really strong.
You know, bench pressing a few plates, and squatting and deadlifting a few more.
Getting really strong also inevitably builds you a great physique.
In fact, as a natural weightlifter, your number one goal should be increasing whole-body strength, not getting big pumps or "feeling the burn."
That's the big "secret" to gaining muscle quickly and effectively, because it's the best way to "progressively overload" your muscles.
You see, by working to slowly and steadily add weight to your exercises over time, you progressively increase tension levels in your muscles. Mechanically speaking, this is the primary driver of muscle growth.
That's why the biggest guys and gals in the gym are also generally the strongest.
Another advantage to this approach to weightlifting is it's very simple and straightforward. There are just three steps:
1. Choose the right strength program for you.
2. Get your calories and macros right.
3. Make sure you're fully recovering from your workouts.
That's it.
If you just consistently do those three things, and keep showing up and putting in the work, then your strength will skyrocket and your body will transform.
Let's take a look at each.

Thank you mike for your very informative video. But Iam really disappointed from a recent injury in my hip I had my scaroiliac joint injured while I was deadlifting . Avtually I don't know if I will be able to come back for lifting or not . 3 years back I had the same injury but with lower intensity . This time I heard a sound like "tuck" in my lower back in the last higher third of the lift while extending my hip . So what do you think of an alternative exercise to deadlift or squat

@migueljayne8261 5 жыл бұрын

Would incorporating speed and explosive training with a little less than 70% 1RM into your compound movements reap as many benefits as slow heavy lifting? I’m on the BBLS program but I don’t want to lose the speed and agility I had as a sprinter, martial artist, and soccer player due to very heavy and slow lifting

so in other words, should I stop doing Jeff Nippard's Upper Lower 6 day size/strength program? (passed newbie gains)

What if you are getting stronger while trying to cut? If you are getting stronger then does it matter that you are losing weight? When you say 1g/lb is that Lean body weight or just total body weight? Also in terms of keeping things simple would it be helpful to star with a weight you can do 5 reps with and not increase the weight till you can do 12 reps for all sets (assuming 5 sets)? This would constantly move you around in rep ranges without having to plan anything?

What about the stress to the joints when lifting heavy for those of us 50+?

Surely for novice/beginners 4-6 rep range is a recipe for disaster. Going heavy when form isn't right (which can take years) is going snap something. Even relative weight, I would say even a novice can lift 50kg from the floor in a dead lift, but if their form is rubbish they could seriously hurt themselves.

If you're natty, both books for men and women should be called "Thinner Leaner Stronger".

@qalih 4 жыл бұрын

This can be highly dangerous. If someone isn't ready for higher weights, indroctinating them with the idea, that this is the absolute best way is highly irresponsible. Because this is a recipe for disaster.

@TommyBoy8771 4 жыл бұрын

Your argument is flawed. He clearly states that periodization should be used exclusively by advanced weightlifters. For beginners he recommends 4-6 reps for the main lifts, which is heavy relative to their available strength. Heavy weightlifting is not dangerous in the slightest so long as you maintain proper form
