Discussion notes: So, for hypertrophy (muscular growth, not necessarily max muscular strength), only one set to failure is required - it does not matter the weight/rep ratio as long as you go to momentary muscle failure. One or two warm-up sets. One working set. As low as 5 reps, as moderate as 12 reps, or as light as 30 reps - as long as you meet momentary failure. Slow cadence up and down - around 3-5 seconds each direction. Vertical push & pull, horizontal push & pull, and hip extension (like leg press or squat). These work for all people (including non-athletes and pro-athletes alike). Muscle mass is performance dependent, but performance is recovery dependent. After exertion, the body must refuel first, then it will increase muscle mass. The body only adds muscle mass if it is allowed to fully recover from a stimulus. Do not get caught up in a weekly format. Our calendar week is 7 days, we get paid by the week, etc., but the body does not operate by a weekly cycle like that regarding hypertrophy. Rest until you *feel* recovered (both in terms of soreness and the energy you have for hitting the workout hard) or you will not grow very well. Period. Therefore, a person may train every 2 days, 3 days, 5 days, or whatever - it depends on their ability to recover from the previous workout. Prioritizing recovery is essential. Cardio training was not addressed in this video. Personal note: Remember that this is for achieving optimal muscle mass growth. This does not necessarily translate to overall optimal health and fitness. The high-intensity-training method mentioned here is somewhat like a saiyan getting his teeth kicked in, then recovering stronger than before. Useful for plateaus and bodybuilders, but maybe not for the average person with a life outside the gym. I know I cannot afford to have entire muscle groups feeling destroyed after a workout, but if it's only one set to failure, then maybe it doesn't result in such an intense form of DOMS. This video discussion also does not address the place of cardio training, benefits or cons, or otherwise. I will have to test this methodology for a couple weeks to see how it affects me.

@patrickh709 Ай бұрын

This is almost exactly what Mike Mentzer was practicing and in coaching his clients. The only thing Mike got wrong was the diet. He believed that your total daily energy needs should be comprised of 60% carbohydrates. We now know that is not an optimal human diet. Some of Mike's clients required only one workout every seven days. For instance, one set each on four major muscle groups, he called Workout A. Seven days later, do one set each on a different set of major muscle groups (Workout B). There are plenty of videos on YT about Mike's training regimen. He also had other regimens, such as working out every four days. Mike always said that if you reach a sticking point in your program where you are no longer making any gains in strength, you need to add an additional rest day here and there.

@krazus2036 27 күн бұрын

Mike also got ore exhaustion wrong, it isnt necessary or any more beneficial then just going to failure. He was also wrong about it being needed because "bigger" muscle groups are held back by "smaller" muscle groups because all muscles if you take them out and put them on a table or scale would be the same size or similar. Ontop of that muscles work in tandem together when exercising and all hit failure at the same time in compound movements.

This is very similar to bodybuilder Mike Mentzer's training philosophy. One set to total muscle failure achieves maximum hypertrophy results. It's very cool to see the data coming out on this.

He was the one who introduced me to the carnivore diet and he has been training people and himself with those HIgh intensity training principles like 1 set to failure, 1-2 exercises per muscle group, 45-90 secs of time under tensition, with controle candance to reduce the risk of injury and maximize muscle fatigue!( 3-5 secs each phase of the moviment) There are also a very good book on the topic by Dr.Doug Mcguff (Body by Science)

It's fast and gets the best results because muscle mass increases upon the amount of stress it receives. Your 5 times per week doesn't seem "generous" at all, especially as it can't test your limit.

For me to reference later. 1. Train to absolute failure. Once that absolute failure rep is hit you are done with that workout. Low as 5 reps can go as high as 30. 2. Slow on the ascend and descend and or slow on the push and slow on the pull. Keep momentum as minimal as possible so it won't do the work for you. 7:52 workouts mentioned. Vertical pull, vertical push, horizontal pull, horizontal push, hip extension such as leg press and or squats.

I sort of agree with one set to failure per exercise is right however there is also effective reps (5 rir or less) to consider. You also need to perform enough of these to signal feedback to the body to trigger muscle protein synthesis. Also, to say recruiting high threshold motor units is a switch but process of recruiting them from high to low is a continuum is little bit disingenuous don't you think. Guess the main q is how many effective reps to perform and how much stimulus do high threshold units require. This may vary between individuals based on genetics, diet, recovery etc. Also I believe consistency of effort is just as important as intensity. Including untrained individuals in studies may skew the results based on newbie gains as opposed to experienced lifters who know how tax and recruit muscle fibres optimally.

Ive had several friends and family already ask me if I’m doing some kinda special workout because I’ve gained so much muscle so quickly. While doing this my diet is 90% meat and diary the rest are carbs of some sort, very little sugars (including fruits). I only use dumbells and a bench. Warmup is a must for me in order to get to my maximum output without strain. By about 10-15 reps my muscles are twitching and im sweating. 5 secs up, 5 secs down. When I finish with the workout I get a huge rush. Probably the spiked cortisol and hgh release. Who knows what else. I only workout once a week but i go hard.

I think the key takeaway that people hopefully understand is that it's not 1 set, to failure. It's 1 set to failure. As Phaesse said, he'll have people do a couple of lighter sets before the 1 set to failure. But that 1 set is maximum intensity for low rep ranges. Do as many sets and reps it takes to work up to your actual working set and then get to momentary muscle failure on that set. I had a lifting protocol for this for myself, I would do 3-4 sets of ever increasing weights for no more than 5 reps apiece with a comfortable rest time between sets (I was training with my nephew at the time so the rest time was only long enough for him to do his set), then my 5th set was a near max effort pull/push. I typically only got 1 or 2 reps on that last set. RPE 9 or 10 level effort there. For deadlifts specifically I would also do a static hold at the end of every set for up to 10 seconds or as long as I could before my grip gave out, whichever came first. At the higher sets, grip failure was the more common reason. I didn't use straps, only chalk so I frequently had callouses ripped off because of the bar. I also didn't do the lift directly in some cases. So for deadlifts I did below the knee rack pulls. Bench I did dumbell presses/fly's.

What about doing say reps at a certain weight to exhaustion. Then doing another but at a less weight to exhaustion? Then perhaps do a 3rd to exhaustion at a slightly lower weight again. So you are doing 3 sets to exhaustion but progressively lowering the weight so you can keep up the reps. Is this good? bad?

Hey Doc! Amazing content! I have a question. I'm 39 years old,180cm male. I'm on the carnivore diet around 5 months now. I've gone from 92 kg pudding down to 68 kg "JACKED" at least for my standards. I can see my abs "sixpack" for the first time since I was 16. Minimum exercise 2-3 times a week 15-20 minutes of bodyweight training but it seems like I can't put on weight. I am a busy man so a lot of movement the hole day and I'm eating at least a kilo lamb or beef per day with 4-8 eggs. I'd appreciate any advice and thanks for all the knowledge! Cheers from Austria!

Mike Menzer & Dorian Yates professional body builders high intensity training is how they do it with few reps & few sets into failure both negative & positive! Maximum Effort into failure is the key! Arthur Jones is the father of high intensity training!
