Were you thinking about some kind of "summary" video? I mean you have tons of "experiments", would be great to know what you think about some of them after some time. Maybe kind of tier list video (people love tier lists), which experiments you think are the best to follow and which you wouldnt recommend at all?

I got asked out by several girls today... turned out i was at the wrong bathroom.

This makes me think back to one of my biggest growth eras; when I was doing a 45-minute power building split in the early mornings and then had gymnastics practice in the evenings. I gained about 20lbs, increased my primary lifts by at least 20% and all of this as an intermediate lifter at age 24 and studying engineering at college.

I would love to see this experiment carried out for a month

I don't feel like you can make any substantial conclusions after 1 week

I have chronic health issues and have been having great success with micro workouts over the past year! Makes dealing with fatigue swings so much easier for me without losing muscle 💪🏼

Micro workouts are super useful for certain use cases. The 3 ways I use them is either as a way to fit in some degree of activity when I'm too busy or tired for traditional sessions, as a supplement for specialization volume on top of my main workouts, or as a way to maintain strength and mass when I want to focus on other aspects of my training like flexibility or martial arts.

Opened YT the second this uploaded. Good start to the day.

bro you look bigger every time you post keep up the good work amazing progress

You might benefit from watching some renaissance periodisation videos here on youtube. They have some info on micro workouts, but mostly a lot of general accurate information for muscle building. Your form, cadence and general training can improve a lot. Thank you for sharing.

Results makes sense. Smaller muscles like forearms and calves benefited most from short intense workouts bc they less fatigable and literally evolve to be used whole day. Bigger muscles of course didn't get enough time to be properly stimulated and start signaling to grow. Thanks for doing bro science for us!

in my early years of working out I recall using a form of micro workouts. it was good for my tism, I couldn't focus on my homework for long intervals but a pump inbetween got my tasks done. i remember applying to all chores and tasks. It's good to see someone research into to the point I might bring it back again. Thank you @pigmie

My goodness every hour…? Well an instant smile of my face came when I saw your new upload 😊

I do 3 superset workouts spread out through the day for a total of 6 lifts and 4 sets each. Intensity is peaked and growth is good however draw back is insufficient warm ups

I often find breaking up my workouts into like 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the afternoon is preferable to a 1 hour workout in order to overcome the fatigue problem, where tiredness from earlier exercises affects the potency of later ones

Great workout !

7:40 lmao I like to do small workouts randomly when I sit around a lot but in Summer I sometimes skip them because I don't want to get sweaty, can't imagine to work with those alone. If you train for skills or want to go heavy you also have to warm up every time again.

I see this being practical for those stuck at sedentary jobs. As far as I can see, the workouts just need to be from 3-7 minutes to be effective. I think most people could justify taking breaks for a micro 3-7 minutes, throughout the day. This is attainable. It seems from your experience that rest days are still required, though, only confirming the effectiveness of the micros. Re: your before and afters, I saw much more definition in the after pics. Thanks.

This is why bricklayers, carpenters, or scaffoldworkers or any other craftsman workers are so strong. And If you addapt your movements as a craftsman you Can both build muscle and get insanely strong

Perfect idea for people working from home. I heard a guy on a show say he gets up every 2 hours and does something physical.

I do 4-5 micro workouts in my garage gym. First, 12 minutes (0.5mi) on the treadmill, then 6 sets to failure of some lift. I notice that warming up with the treadmill lets me lift more.

Big g keep up the goods 🙏

Thanks for the video you made form 0 to today :) my body legit look amazing now because of your video I start work out at 2019 it's you who made me inspired to workout my life is Amazing now :) huge thank you man

I've been thinking about this and I am going to do multiple daily workouts for just arms, in addition to my normal workout so, my thinking is stimulating muscle hypertrophy 4 times per day following the less volume more frequency approach.

I see that "farmboy" bulk is working for you. You've gotten bigger. 🤘

Found this a little bit weird 12 workouts for 10 minutes is 2hours of workout… who works out 2 hours you should only do like 6 or 5 even

For me, they aren’t really micro workouts, but for the same reasons of intensity and because my gym doesn’t have the belt for weighted pull ups, I do my weighted pull ups at home with a weighted vest I can’t bother to bring to the gym and have around with me the whole time. On my upper days or pull days before I commute to the gym I do my weighted pull ups, and I note that the small break between weighted pull ups and the rest of my workout, I have the strength to follow with heavy bench pressing in the 3-5 rep range, or follow with my bicep training (seated bicep curl, preacher, and then hammer curls) without losing much strength or being too fatigued. However my main concern is that I would think that I am setting myself up for injury because I am subjecting my body to really intense loads with a break, and then ramping it up again, but I have been warming up before the pull ups and then another smaller warm up when I’m at the gym again. So far I’ve been fairing well, but I want to see how things would go after a few more months of this.

Something i would love to throw out there is you said early in the video you had random nice weather one day, I think you should look into Barometric Pressure changes to see if thats affecting your workouts. Any time a storm is coming in I feel burnt and sore no matter the season. There are theories that when there is a fall in air pressure cause our tissues (muscles/tendons) to swell or expand. SOOO maybe that could be something to experiment with.

I been doing this it certainly helps me get work feeling as fresh as possible

I’ve tried adding a micro workout first thing in the morning in addition to my regular works and I think that I got stronger but after awhile fatigue set in. It seems there is only so much that we can do before we need time to recover and adding in more volume stimulated more and required more rest.

You are my inspiration ❤ love from india

i got this physique by being a lumberjack, no cap

I think it would be better to do maybe three 20min workouts in the day or three 30min workouts or maybe just depends on what muscle group how long you do it for but I would say 30 mins max

I train like this most of the days, of course not every hour, but throughout the day. I feel ready for action all day. It's good!

For every like this gets I'll do 10kg weighted push ups 💪🏿

Imagine being that guy that excuses himself from the room to go do calf raises

If anyone wants to try this micro workouts, please do it with intensity (3-5 reps), or else if you do 8+ reps then the volume will acomulate and destroy your body the next day. And about the grip.. When you use grips your forearm gets pumped with blood, which makes your tendons, in a nutshell, "Wake up".

hI Lucas,thanks for all of usefull videos and content,can anyone learn backflip using the D.H.M just like webster or front flip. is this possible?🤔

I believe the @bioneer did something similar, where he had 3-4 workouts throughout the day, at 10-15 minutes per workout.

The thigh sizes actually ended up the same so did it help your symmetry and that's why it decreased only for one leg? Especially since the growth on forearms and calves matched too

Keep going broo!!!

Another banger

have been experimenting with one set of difrferent exercises every 20 minutes in home office, actually felt really good. after the whole workday i had a whole workout in with no fatigue, and had an excuse to get up every 20 minutes

in my experience, it was kind of unintentional buut with throwing season starting 2 or so weeks ago, i lift for about 30 minutes at weight room, then hit the gym an hour later for a full lift and I overall feel really good.

I found an easy way to do workouts during the day is to put some exercise or resistance bands on the door in the bathroom and use them every time I use the bathroom.

If I've had a long day at work and i still wanted to work out I'll at least try and do a quick 15-20 minutes on the multi gym and a few dumbbell curls while i wait for my dinner to cook.

Come to think of it I don't think I can recall seeing people train crush grip like this. I'm sure if I looked I could find it: but I don't think I have seen it. I might try this soon when I try for a #2 close.

When I work out, I mostly do micro workouts just as a habit. The way I do it is I split up a full body calisthenics work and do a single set of each muscle group for each workout. Like if your doing obe punch man's workout you do 25 pushups, squats, situps. 4 times a day to reach 100 then do cardio as a sole workout

I used to do something similar with my running. I would run 1-3 miles 4-5 times a day. I ran some of my fastest 5k's back then. The shorter distances let me run faster. But it becomes hard to work them into your day

growing some hairs , are we ? * excited to see a bun*

I used to do micro workouts before every meal 3 times a day, a method that comes from a big ancient doctor philosopher scientist and rabbi called maimonides, it got me very strong and muscular, I lost a lot of body fat, my energy increased, I felt a pump all the time.

screw it i need to start doing random high intensity forearm exercises daily

Forearms: loosen and tighten a peanut butter jar. That torque will build the muscles imo

I was always a gym guy. Pure BB. However I gained the best aesthetic body by 25 min/ 6 times per week functional training plus minimum 6-10 km walk daily.

Some years back I had a pull up bar in my room door and started doing just as much as it’s not exhausting like 5-10 times a day on my way in and out. It took me 2-3 weeks to get from 3 easy to 10 easy and 7 max to 15 max. In the prior 3 month of typical gym workout 3x/week I did not nearly get that progress.

ill do this with arms. just in the middle of my morning of chores ill just sneak in some super high intensity curls. also some triceps after i leave work, similarly close to failure. super handy

I think this is a little similar to what I did working in the gym, anytime there was a break I'd just do something with the stuff I was cleaning up, so in total I was doing quite a lot whist being active all day long. Super tired in the evening but it kinda felt good. Nevertheless I think you need structured workouts with adequate rest (!!) to see great hypertrophy. And eating a lot is necessary of course

I used to do micro workout curls during random parts of the day almost everyday at least 1-3 times, and had growth

I think Bruce Lee said forearms and calves had endurance fibers and therefore should be trained with high repetition or frequency

Could you do a similar experiment with cardio? Maybe like 5 min per hr jogging or bike

Have you ever heard of Pavel Tsatsouline? I really like his theory. That seems like something you could look into

good idea

you should try trading futures with a prop firm such as Apex or Topstep, low risk and potential for big reward, and the Pattern Day Trader rule does not apply to futues.

nice video

while this could be taunting, a video attempting segmented sleep (as in sleeping for 2 hours 4 times a day for example) would be incredibly interesting. some people say it works, some people say its dangerous. there isnt really any science on it. just something that came to thought because i have been thinking about trying it myself but its kinda difficult to do it while working

I do this all the time on weekends, did this today as a matter of fact.

Another awesome video 💪

I think these are more practical for people with newborn babies or lots of kids' activities.... Because you sometimes only have little bits of free time throughout the day.

just a thought, perhaps the size gains over such a short periods of time could be explained by inflammation or injury or water retention due to diet

Did you already do Mike Metzger workout?would be dope

Micro workouts are supposed to be a way to get your exercise in on a busy schedule. If you can bust out some pushups before a meeting or do a few pull ups before you drive over to the school to pick your kid up from soccer practice. It’s a way to work your workout into your day throughout the entire day.

Micro workoutz are all I do. Under one minute is ideal. I see a bar and boom - 4 perfect pull-ups today. It could be 8 and 8 push-ups to keep the symmetry but it has to be a joy not a work. It could be zero to 10 sets of anything a day. Here and there or more at once. Or a day off. I go by feel. It helps to lower blood sugar after a meal. Or to get hungry and anabolic before some protein meal. The muscles absorb food better. No workouts at all is like asking for insulin resistance.

He should also have a before pr and after people who agree to let him know 👇

Add doing myoreps to your list of experiments bro

I don't know but I'll say this.... paradoxically, when I was boxing (which included cardio plus weights and bag work, pads, sparring, etc ), i was at my largest most jacked muscles and weight ever.🤔

this is kinda what ive done for past 10 years. (well sorta) i just do 1 hard set, than take a break for as long as i want. then do another hard set. ill take really long breaks but do 5 really hard sets spread throughotu the day its kept me lean my whole life without having to do cardio or diet

Bro looks jacked!

Can you try this again but consistent like 3/4x15-20minutes a day? Personally think that would be more beneficial.

13:03 your face there is gold. I don't know why, but you look like a comedy actor pretending to be working out hard wirh over the top expressions.

Yanno what they say about guys with micro workouts.

we need a “training only partial reps” s/o jeff nippard lol

Please! Test it for a month long!!

“Barbecue blasters.. YEAAAH 🤠 “ that was a cute relationship moment haha

5:59 Next hour lower body workout, Iron crutch.

0:10 what's this excercise called?

If it were me I would probably just done 1 set of burnout on pushups, pullups, and squats. Rinse cycle and repeat

You know, that schedule is kinda like -- but not nearly so strenuous -- as working on a farm or in a factory, like a machine shop or a cabinetry shop. You know, like -- working. Except that it's continuous rather than a few minutes an hour.

I have done micro workouts in the past mostly because i was to tired to do real ones. But then I only did big multiple joint exercises, a few sets but hard. I don't see the point doing several smaller for the more or less same muscle groups over a day. Furthermore, don't you depress the protein synthesis over and over then? Not letting it shoot? Better to run one muscle group, with one exercise, and rest. Lateral raises and one arm curls would not be my micro workout, go full quick and leave it with that. For me that was mostly minimalistic bodyweight exercises, like, do what you can do. Or if you have a bench or a rack do that. But that's my idea of micro workouts.

I accidentally shat on my PS4 thinking it was a toilet

I'm your biggest fan sir what's your country & place

BBQ Blasters is a 🔥 name!

Can you do way too much workout like 1000 biceps curls wrist curls etc.

I was actually wondering this just the other day 🤔

why do u never do a collap ?

you did warmups?

The body needs recovery regardless of the frequency of micro workouts. It's way better to do a HIT workout around 30 min full body twice a week only.

I think another cool challenge would be one set every workout, full body, every day.

3:48 You definitely should❤

Do this again but spilt ur regular workout in half, 1 morning and 1 evening

nice
