Making your own program might sound like a good idea on paper (literally), but you might be setting yourself up for failure doing so, especially if you never made one before. It's not that it is impossible to do, but there are likely much more that goes into making an effective program that you might realize. In this video, we'll talk about some of the bigger points of why you should think twice about making your own program if you're trying to build muscle and get stronger.

On the other hand, once you've been lifting long enough you really need to make a custom program for yourself. So why not try learning as you go? Making a program doesn't mean you can't update it every week. You're bound to make mistakes but you learn in the process.

Yeah custom programs are a must, I can't workout 5-6 days a week, I feel like shit, tired and my body hurts, because I train with high intensity my joints, ligaments and tendons need time to catch up so I decided I would go 4 days a week but with high intensity, and Do abs at home

I’m a bit disappointed by this last video. It sounds a bit condescending even if I can get the message underneath. Yes, there are lots of subtleties to think about when making a program but isn’t that precisely your role ? You, Jeff Nippard or Jeremy Ethier are giving great scientific fact-based advice that we can use to make our own programs. You said it at this end but it wasn’t emphasized enough for me: what’s the worst that can happen ? Under-optimal gains. But the process of learning, understanding, and trials and error when making a DIY program is so stimulating and enriching. Here, I think you’ll discourage many people to get into it, and that’s really dommageable. Big fan of your other videos by the way ! Helped me a lot to create my own programs!

I feel like this video is omitting a lot of important reasons why you might want to make your own program even if it won't be perfect. For me, the fact that I can decide which exercises I do and when is the single biggest contributor to my consistency in going to the gym. I can avoid exercises that feel uncomfortable or dangerous for my body or in the specific gym I'm at because of its equipment, and instead focus on exercises that make me feel excited to be at the gym.

I'd agree for someone who has never done their own research and used programs by people who know what they are doing but after that point it's also not that complicated and I think trainers overblow the risk because it makes them money to fear monger about it but also because they're used to dealing with people who have no clue. The difference is that we have channels like this one, if you're a regular viewer then nothing you discussed today is new or complicated. Furthermore, you learn a lot more about fitness if you build your own programs at least in part.

Great points, Picturefit. Making a program is a lot of work, factoring in exercise, muscle groups, reps and sets, training days, etc. That said, I still think most people would benefit from making their own programs, as opposed to using a generic program from the internet. Most internet programs are so bad, that practically nobody would make gains from them. For example, Geoffrey Verity Schofield reviewed both V-Shred’s arms program and Noel’s Hyper-Mass program (in different videos, obviously) Schofield explained that both programs were beyond bad because: 1) The programs had way too many exercises, such as having 4-8 exercises for just the arms, for example 2) not enough rest time between sets 3) no information regarding progressive overload 4) too many reps and sets for the exercises These issues seem to be prevalent in almost all internet programs, and not just Noel’s and V-Shred’s. Given how bad most internet programs are, I actually think most serious lifters would actually make more gains with their own plans instead of using just another crappy internet program

Idk. On one hand yes you definitely need to know what to do before making a workout plan otherwise you can just spin your wheels in the gym and get nowhere. On the otherhand, it really shouldn't have to be all that complicated as although a training plan might not be "optimal" as long as it still works and the person is enjoying the exercise then does it really matter as much? If you do an "optimal" workout but you hate doing it your probably gonna quit the gym if you not invested.

Hm, can muscles differentiate between a selfmade program and a professional made one? 🤔😅 I think as long as you show up to your work out and stimulate your muscles enough (good indicator for me personally is if I'm to week to raise my arm to open the fridge after the arm workouts 🤣🤣) and eat accordingly they'll grow. For example, i was always sitting leaning to the left and thus supported on the left arm or elbow, cause of that my left lat is a bit bigger and stronger 😅 The body is just a big adapting apparatus, that we figured out how to manipulate to our favor. 👍 My 2x/week full body was 5+h long due to lack of overload ability of my equipment since i added deadlifting variations to it. So i split it into "upper/lower/priority" also many Apps don't even list the serratus 😑

I don't get the hate people are giving this video... leave programming to the professionals your trust and (if its a cookie cutter program) test and adjust from there. My own ego and bias left me with with horrible back pain, little did i realise i had so much more quad volume than hamstrings, lead to a massive strength imbalance tilting my hips and adding stress to my lower back. Many trips to the physio just to figure what was going on and subsequent rehab would of been avoided if i just invested in a professionally made program which had already balanced the volume / intensity across the muscle groups for me

I agree. Also, it's usually better to figure out things for yourself. The people who bench and so arms every day are not doing it cause they are serious about overall development. They honestly only care about biceps and chest. The people who want a more balanced and overall increase in muscle size will figure out how to hit everything. Finding a good coach is not easy. I would highly recommend that beginners avoid hiring a coach. They will more than like hire one of the 98% of coaches that have no clue. They're better off figuring out things for themselves. If they have the drive, they will find a way. Plus, it's a waste of money to hire most coaches anyways.

Probably true if you're planning on being a professional and need to optimise literally every aspect of your life for that goal, but again, not true for the majority of people just trying to improve themselves.

"Now by this point, if you're still feeling confident about your non-existent programming skills.." What an arrogance Really sounds like he's trying to sell his own program. While some programs will definitely be better than your own in terms of optimal muscle building, i feel like if you have quite a bit of knowledge about what movements move which muscles in which way and you understand the basics for rest and volume, you can definitely make your own program. Personally since ive made my own program I have found it much much easier to motivate myself and actually do all the exercises. It helped me pick the right exercises for me, not just what is optimal, but what is fun aswell. I'd rather get 80% of the results by doing exercises i genuinly enjoy, than get 100% of the results, but doing exercises i really dislike. And continuing on that, he talks like it's only acceptable to get absolute 100% of possible gains from a program, and acting like anything less is horrible. Even a decent workout program will get you a whole lot of gains if you're not a pro-lifter.
