- This video tutorial explains the adaptations which occur in the neural circuitry of a novice individual newly starting a resistance training program. The video is part of a special series about the physiological effects of resistance training.

This channel is just gold.
Thanks!
Thank you for the video! I'm starting gym and this really helps
Brilliant, helped majorly with my assignment. Thank you
Your welcome Ryan. Thanks for dropping by to leave a comment, and best of luck in your studies!
Fantastic resource, thank you for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for enhancing my knowledge
Thank you Rahul for taking time to leave this feedback, it is much appreciated.
Your Accent is so clearly & with so flewly. Nearly perfect. The corn is well, but my interest for to an accent 😂
Thanks for the comment. I try to speak as clearly as possible so native and non-native English speakers can understand the content.
Can you do an in-depth lecture on ACTN3?
Hi
Great video. With the neural adaptations ... Would these carry on after the 6-8 weeks with the additional support of the muscle hypertrophy as you are aiming to progress the exercise program ?
Thanks Tom. In short, yes the neural adaptations are likely to continue increasing, albeit at a slower rate. Hypertrophy would be the predominant mechanism for further strength gains. Having said that, if you vary the exercises performed (even slight modification of the technique), then you are likely to evoke further neuromuscular adaptations. Complex movements often require continued development of neuromuscular co-ordination long after the 6-8 weeks.
@@physiologymadeeasy216 great, thanks very much for the speedy response : )
Thanks for the great video very informative but I couldn’t help but notice the hypertrophy line should be stagnant till the 6 week make and then continually go up you said it right just drew it wrong
have u upload vedio on "how physiological mechanism causing increasing strength and endurance"
Thank you thank you thank you
You are very welcome
Are there any temporary neural or muscular adaptations that occur but are lost within the first 3-5 days of training? Great vid btw, can't wait to work my way through them! 👍
Not that I know of Kevin.
No problem. It was a long shot. Thanks anyway!
What if you’re not a novice and you already had years of leaning a movement, then you come back to a move you haven’t done in a while, does it still take 6-8 weeks for neural adaptation to level off in order for Hypertrophy to occur or would it happen sooner due to muscle memory?
No, I think in this case the neural pathways are set, and it is a much quicker process. Think of it like riding a bike, once learnt you never forget.
I wanted to ask you a question along the same lines. Where can I email you at?
How long does it take to lose neural adaptation to a specific exercise pattern after you learned it?
Unless the movement are very complex, you may not lose the neural pathway at all, however, refinements that are made to the movement with regular practice may be lost and need some training again. For most basic resistance exercises (e.g. squats, bench, deadlifts) you often do not lost neural adaptations for the movement, but you may lose aspects such as firing frequency of neuron to produce maximum force or power.
I heard neural adaptions happens between 10-12 weeks of resistance training. It doesn't mean I couldn't have hiperthophy during neural adaptations, right?
You could definitely get hypertrophy during the first few weeks. Its more so in the first few weeks, your strength gains are from the neural adaptations rather than hypertrophic. There can still be overlap were both play a role in strength gains. The big key is that in the early weeks its the neural adaptation that’s responsible, and later weeks (post 6-8 weeks) its the hypertrophy of the muscle that’s responsible
Karan's reply is excellent, and summarises the main points very well.
Isn't Peak Contraction and Peak Tension basically Hypertrophy or I am wrong? Also, how do motor neurons work in Concentric, Eccentric, and Isometric muscle activity?
hi sir
i had a doubt
Are these adaptations permanent ?
and are these chronic or acute adaptations?
Hi Jimit, the adaptations are not permanent, because if you stop training then there is some reversibility. Having said that, once you learn the correct technique, the motor program will be stored in your brain. This means you can recall that information when needed again much more quickly. As an example, once you learn how to ride a bike, you don't forget even if you have not ridden for many years. In a sporting context, we need to keep practicing a skill to be successful so the we refine the neuromuscular adaptations that occur too.
Hello, great video! But wouldn't the hypertrophy start later in the process.. the way you'r drawing it now suggests that hypertrophy strat immediately after beginning with exercise, but this is just transient hypertrophy which fades away after several hours
.. it should start later!
Hi Lars,
Thanks for your nice comments. Your right, hypertrophy starts much later. The neural adaptations occur first, with hypertrophy occurring at a much later stage. In the video, I state hypertrophy occurs at around 6-8 weeks, which is the time-frame for a typical resistance training program. Transient hypertrophy is known as cell swelling and as you rightly say subsides after a few hours. I will shortly be producing video discussing the physiological processes of muscle hypertrophy and will go into detail about the differences in cell swelling and myofibrillar hypertrophy.
Okay, I'm looking forward to it!!
