Question- If pre-exhausting quads with extensions, then moving onto a squat variation, we won’t be able to subject the quads to as much mechanical tension or weight obviously than if we went straight into the squats. But a lot of people with massive, quickly built quads use this pre-exhaustion method. This tells me that moving as heavy of weight as possible under the bar on a squat or any other muscle group for that matter is not the key ingredient (or not necessarily). A LOT of people like to argue this and say that weight (mechanical tension) is so important. I hope this makes sense.

Hey Coach, here's my question Could you cover different intensifiers? I am curious to know your thoughts on them as well as when to add them in/pull them out of training. I also am wondering what the purposes of each of them are and the advantages of one over another intensifier? (ex. why would a rest pause set be better than a cluster set in different scenarios? and vice versa) Thanks for all your knowledge, I would love if you were able to run a weekend clinic/seminar here in Florida, and i have a bunch of people that would love to go learn from you and would pay good money for it!

Q: how to work on a begginer's coordination before moving to the basic heavy excersices so they can perform well and not get injured?

LOVE these q&a's. Really really informative and great to drive and listen to

Hey Coach, I watched a bunch of your videos and the recent q&a´s. First, context: The goal is maximal muscle growth, thats what we all want! When you get questions about the difference between absolute natural (no trt etc.) and enhanced lifters you always claim that there is absolutely no difference regarding training, splits, volume, intensity etc. except the enhanced guy build muscle faster and more, obviously. I´m confused because almost every other youtube expert, coaches, gurus says something different from them. Most of the time they recommend more frequency because protein synthesis is just elevated for 48 hours when someone is natural and therefore its necessary to trigger new growth sooner, compared to an enhanced guy where protein synthesis is elevated around the clock. Also most of them they say less volume for naturals and no pump work!? My question is why you think there is no difference regarding frequency, volume, intensity etc.? I would appreciate if you can explain what your thought process behind is and why you have the opposite opinion than everybody else? thank you very much

I've seen alot of great info on warming up and of course we see the top sets alot, but how do you structure all the sets and reps inbetween? Pyramid up? If so how many sets or do you use a prescribed weight jump like 10-20% of top set all the way etc. And is the rep range similar all the way up or do you use reduced reps and just rep out the top sets? Thanks for all the great info!!

Arrange these In terms of importance: Load, sets, reps, weekly volume, and exercise variation.

What’s up Joe, big fan of the Q & A series! My question for you is how would you recommend a beginner transition into a more intermediate style program after they’ve plateaued, and then from intermediate to advanced? Thanks!

Top 5 favorite supplements everyone should consider taking? Can't say whey, creatine or caffeine either ;)

Can you explain the difference on what’s the ideal seat height for back and chest machines. Great videos and work your doing.

9 yrs in on training, still progressing big. Thanks dad❤

Do you like any oblique training? Example, cable chops, side crunches, twists, side planks etc?

Thanks so much for answering my question, I truly appreciate it Coach. Never done blood work but always wanted to try, I am natural and take care of my body quiet well Id say, but would be interesting to see if I can improve something. I think ill go for a maintenance period, maybe 2-3 weeks see how it goes. Again, thanks for everything you've been doing on this YT channel , I am sure you helped a lot more people than just me, pure respect.

This was absolutely fantastic. Great advice and insight. Really can't tell you how much I appreciate these

I felt the blender analogy was useful 😅 Hypertrophy is a delicious thing…it involves a recipe, and if you’re not clear in your ingredients and measurements you won’t be able to recreate or modify the recipe

What do you think about DB pull-overs as a way to overload the lats in the lengthened position? It seems like there aren't a lot of other options for that purpose. I know you can set-up a cable pull-over to focus more or less on lenghtened/shortened position but it always seems like I need to be anchored to something to allow for maximal strength output, thus I don't think it's the best alternative. Thanks!

Love the Q and As coach! Does newbie gains apply to training age or specific muscle groups? For example if I've trained for many years but have neglected certain muscle groups by suddenly focusing my training on those would I benefit from newbie results?

What's your opinion on DUP style training. Example full body workouts. Day: 1: 15-20 reps (Myo Reps) Day 2: 4-6 reps (heavy day) Day 3: 8-12 reps (moderate) Rest days as needed. Vs mixing rep ranges in the same day. Full body was just an example. I've done DUP for years and enjoy this style, since it offers variety, higher frequency and allows for rest when needed.

What set intensifiers do you recommend for someone who has reached a max weight on an exercise to break plateaus? Or would you recommend just changing to a new exercise altogether and progressing on that?

Hey Joe. I'm currently using reverse pyramid set structure and taking all sets(2-3) to failure in a upper-lower split. Would you recommend taking all sets to failure or just the last one of each exercise?

Hi coach,u r the best 🙏🙏👍👍love from india

Hi Coach! Your chart drawings have been incredibly informative, especially understanding the biomechanics surrounding certain movement patterns. I was hoping you could apply your inspirational artistry to explain who would win in a fight between a gorilla and a lion. Thank you!

I love the format thanks Joe. Question : if I run a half body or push pull legs program for instance. Should I do an A and B workout that I alternate or the exact same workout that I repeat but perhaps for less time than the A/B option ? For instance push A - pull A - legs A - rest - push B - pull B - legs B - rest - rest - REPEAT or repeat the same push pull legs rest program ? Thanks

Quality video Doc👍🏿💎

Long time listener first time questioner.. Could you talk about “quad focused” vs “glute focused” leg days and why you’d want to program them?

Yo Coach. Love your content. So I am 56 (5'5" 195 lbs about 20% body fat), and I have noticed I have not seen content from you about your training approach for those in my age group. I am 56, and I generally am a Push/Pull/Legs guy. When I competed in the 90's I did Dorian's Spilt and it was cool, a lot of growth, but I just enjoyed doing P/P/L splits. So generally, Push One Day, Pull the Next, Rest, then legs, rest , then it repeats. The problem is my biceps tendons feel stressed at around my elbow about where my biceps and my brachialis meet. I generally train to or at failure, but by the time I'm done with my 8-9 working sets of back, my biceps are tapping out. What are your thoughts. PS just finished Chemotherapy so this kid is back.

Why do bodybuilders deadlift when it’s purely a strength exercise?

How would you divide the following in regards to how much strength, hypertrophy, endurance ratios/percentages they may result (if all other variables were ideal for the associated rep range): 3-6 6-8 8-10 10-12 Thanks in advance. 👍 for the session.

Hi! What do you think about belt squat? It looks like elite bodybuilders don't really have it in their program despite the fact that you can really push a set to failure easily, focus on quads or glutes as needed, etc... Thanks!

How would u structure a full body training routine training each bodypart 2-3x a week?

Hey Coach, new to your videos, they're Awesome! Just wondering what are your thoughts around the Keto diet, calories in the diet and how to build muscle?

Hey coach, do beards facilitate gains? Never seen or met any strength coach without one.

How do you feel about leg extensions for quads?

Question: how much intensity is too much intensity? Suppose instead of doing 3 work sets of RPE of 10 someone does 1 rest pause set with 3 failure points. Is it too much intensity if doing it in every exercise of the session??

hello coach, do you think it's better for natural PPL2x or PPLoff repeats? or do you have any suggestion of routines for naturals?

Is it necessary to have an anterior delt specific exercise in your shoulder routine if you do lots of pressing movements for chest, or is that energy better spent on the other heads of the shoulder?

People tends to complicate weight training..

How much protein do you actually need for BUILDING MUSCLE?????

Hey Joe, I have recently purchased the mobile meathead and think it's great. One question, when I internally rotate my left hip during the broga exercise, my hip feels 'jammed up' (for want of a better phase), could you help me understand what this may be and how to overcome the sticking point? Thanks!

We need timestamps!

For the algorithm

Question. Does everyone suffer DOMs even with regular training? I only get DOMS if I've taken some time off but once training regularly even training to failure I don't get DOMS I feel muscle fatigue but not DOMS is this normal for some people?

How you make adjustments to diet? Doing math calculations such that if 3500 kcals r roughly 1 pound then I should reduce x kcals calories or it depends on look check in photos etc? Thank you.

Can bands be effective for isolating small muscles(delts,bis and tris...)

After my first exercise I feel like warmups are useless(unless I’m squatting)opinion?

Thx 💕 💐

How you approach periodization?

👍🏻

first :^)
