If there is one guy’s advice that I’d trust to get strong, it’s this man’s right here.

Mitch is exceptionally genetically gifted and has only been doing strongman for 3 years. Learn from a vet like Nick best, Brian etc that have experience. Mitch can't really tell you how to get strong

And as a 44 year old who just decided to double my amount of chinups I'm capable of, getting back to my 20s numbers... sometimes you gotta re-earn those rights. Shoulda started with simple dumb-bell strength training. Now I have a week of shoulder maintenance to manage.

@BurstingVeins1 10 ай бұрын

Avoiding injury is one of the hardest and easiest things to do. My injuries have always been because I didn't warm up, or if I do nothing for a few days after working out hard. It's crazy how important continuing lighter work during deload, or even warming down for a few days before 100% rest from working out is. I get the worst muscle cramps 3-4 days of doing nothing immediately after lifting a lot.

@SergiuNw Ай бұрын

Hi there, that's the reason why I stay away from the full deload phase and it helps me for now. My deload basically is, same weight and hoping for more reps, which I do very often, because I always aim for at least 4 reps, then I go up in weight. When I get an injury that I think it's getting worse and worse, I just take a week off. I know people don't like the idea of taking time off, but I even took 3 months, because of my left shoulder and other personal issues. Then I went back to the gym, of course I lost muscle mass and strength, but I got it back in like 3-4 weeks and my shoulder was fully recovered, instead of prolonging and maybe injure it bad. I have some friends who have a shoulder issue for like 1-2 years, because they just won't take a break and focus on the healing. There are also some exercises that help tremendously with that and many other injuries. Take as much time as you think you need, there is no rush, treat your injuries as right as possible so you can continue the journey.

@@SergiuNwif ur "deload" is trying to hit the same weight as before the deload but for even higher reps, that's not a deload at all. I suggest u watch Jeff nippards video on how to deload properly

@knowwe 10 ай бұрын

The last point "strength over skill" really resonated with me. From the beginning I've always tried my best to use minimal technique & momentum for lifts, and make it all about muscle power. Its why I've NEVER done things like using hip thrust/engagement for benching or jerking up for shoulder presses. Training like this also massively reduces the chances of injury, imo.

I’ve recently started working out again (last 3months) and I only have two days to do it a week. I’ve been doing warmups of triples to a heavy double or single (relative to me) and then work down to 3 burnout sets. Typically 11-15 reps. I feel like I’m progressing very quickly but was wondering if it’s healthy and ok for the long run. As of now no injuries or tweaks

@mgunnermusic 10 ай бұрын

Loving the educational content! You seem to have a really different perspective to the other strongmen, which i really enjoy. Can you talk more about the sympathetic nervous system? You seem to talk about the importance of the training of the nervous system in a different way to how I see it talked about generally. I'd appreciate hearing more about that. Also, if the sympathetic nervous system can be trained to perform better for physical stress, does the same logic apply to training it for emotional and psychological stress?

I could deadlift 365 pounds without doing any specific training or caring about deadlifting at all but I'm really trying to get stronger with squats and I'm at 215 pounds for 3 reps 5 sets after a month and a half of training and weighing 200 pounds and I can tell it's a long way up. I wish I had naturally strong legs but I really don't.

@X0rDuS 10 ай бұрын

maybe i am just weak, but i don´t think 2% every week is realistic, would be at 100kg bench press 2kg every week ? serious question : on how many of the "big 4" (squat/bench/deadlift/ohp) do you think someone could normally progress in these increments ?

@RHIMYM 10 ай бұрын

2% of your total volume (sets×reps×weight) so if you do 5s×5r×100kg it's 2500kg and 2% is 50kg so if you do one rep in one set it's already 4%. But there's plenty of ways to overload

@zachman595 10 ай бұрын

Mitch do you think you could do a video on deloads and how what sport your doing might or might not affect what you choose to do in them. My personal perspective was that you needed a massive reduction in intensity, defintely not just being a coach potato that week but doing everything at much much lower load/ amount of reps.

These are basic principles to gain mass and strength that apply to all human beings. People's genetic potential varies, often wildly. You can gain more than double your strength naturally without "juice". Then there are those who take it to the extreme. Not my thing, but I love the training.
