      @@lrgpapi you are absolutely right. I didn’t mean it this way. Naturals who prefer to take the longer road insofar as realising growth without potential harmful consequences can gain so much structure out of RP and the programs.

      What I should have said is, it makes things realistic.
      Us mere mortals (naturals) would just do everything to failure week after week without any idea about stimulus to fatigue ratios, deloads, meso cycle progression and blocks etc etc. “harder than last time” lolll. Yes harder than last time micro cycle to micro cycle, but recovery and getting the sensitivity back for growth is a massive difference for natural lifters.
      The muscle building process insofar as what the body can achieve in a certain time frame does have some differences when on gear. We can’t deny this surely.

    Hi Mike,
    Can you explain why it’s not possible to combine strength (3-6) and hypertrophy for strength training (5-10) in the same cycle? (Do the first set for strength for example, or one day strength another strength for hypertrophy).

    • @chrono8233
      @chrono8233 Před 3 lety +1

      If time under tension was more important than intensity than distance runners would have bigger quads than sprinters. But they don't. I think its probably useful to a point but should not be the main focus of intensity. The main focus should be making progress every workout for hypertrophy, and if you can do that in a shorter time, I would say you are increasing the intensity of the work, not decreasing it, because you are becoming more efficient and are able to do more work in a shorter amount of time. Time under tension could be used to bring a muscle closer to failure while not doing as many reps (so it could be used to increase intensity in that regard. Therefore saving you more reps to play with in the future)

    If your mesos were a month long (possibly only 3 weeks of training - which is short - and a deload), you’re still talking about a 5-7 month long plan. That is crazy long - way longer than the 12-week plans popularized by top 1980s US champion powerlifters. Would you say this is more of an annual plan?

  • @anthonycampana1105
    @anthonycampana1105 Před 3 lety

    Pertaining to deloads:
    Is it relative to how many days a week you’re already resting? I realize lots of other factors matter but holding all else equal if I’m taking 2 rest days a week, get to the end of a meso and don’t feel too beat up (yet still progressed and increased intensity week to week) is a full week deload for a week worth it? Or is just a slightly extended period
    of time off (say 4 days) sufficient. Am i splitting atoms? Cheers

    • @chrono8233
      @chrono8233 Před 3 lety

      Want to edit my comment: If you are severely fatigued then try the whole week. He also talks about taking "recovery days" these are for people who just need a little recovery but not a whole deload. For this you just workout with the same weight but do half the sets and reps. Just do this for 1 or 2 workouts and then resume. De-loads are for when you hit total exhaustion and hate working out or you are having worse workouts every workout. Always listen to your body and do what feels right for you. Don't be afraid to tweek the deload process to make it work for you. I train full body every other day. So what I do is just perform 2 recovery workouts and that's my deload because I also have a whole day off in between workouts. So that's a total of 4 recovery days. For me and my personal recovery, that seems to be enough to get me through another 4 week meso strong.

    Hello! I’’m programming for my boyfriend, he is doing a cut while hypertrophy training, at the end of the cut he will be 3 mesos into hypertrophy. I was wondering if it would be better to continue to hypertrophy train for more time or go straight to strength training. Thanks!

    • @abrahamlinkin2414
      @abrahamlinkin2414 Před 3 lety +8

      Generally you want to avoid doing more than 3 mesos of the same type of training in a row since the body will become less responsive to that stimulus.
      Assuming he's intending on testing his maxes soon, you would go to strength. If he wants to start a mass phase, he's probably better off taking an active rest (or strength) to resensitize him to hypertrophy training so that he can get the most out of that massing phase. If he wants to keep cutting, active rest would probably be best, and accompanied by a maintenance nutrition phase to give the body a short diet break.

      I’d venture to say a max deficit deadlift should be about 80% of ur max normal deadlift. So then i guess base ur reps and intensity of whatever number that gives u. Or maybe thats a good starting point and then u can tweak it from there depending on the height of the deficit

      If you really want then you could but changing it up after 3 months will probably be more beneficial in the long run. It’s kind of like lifting for the first time when you change something properly. I’m not saying you will get massive PRs in a short time, but you will probably make consistent improvements month to month for several months

    • @nickvoelker7180
      @nickvoelker7180 Před 3 lety

      Yeah, nothing is hard set. Dr. Mike's recommendations are based on the training system he supports, which is periodized (not taking anything away from him, he is the Guru). I run mostly hypertrophy cycles throughout the year with just two short strength cycles in the spring and fall. I have health issues that make true strength training incredibly difficult, so I have to use them sparingly. Ultimately find what works best for you, and go all in on that and you will get good results.
