    High Intensity looks to good to be true from the outside, but when you take it to failure you learn a whole new skill; a skill that improves everything in your life. I always say to truly succeed you must truly fail. Great video, I like how you lay it out straight.

      💯! How you approach the weight room is how you approach everything in life: give it your all & push the limits of discomfort, or half-ass everything & fall back to the comfort zone

      Absolutely I've known this since 2000 when I was given Mike Mentzers MIND AND BODY II. Amazing book. And it's so great to see the younger generation. Realising this is the TRUTH. Mike was always right. And he was ridiculed in his time. A qtr century later the world is starting to realize he knew what he was talking about.

    I used to go to gym consistently for years. However once i discovered HIT, i switched to working out at home. Because gyms have loud musics, people using weights and not put them back, having to wait the person to finish the set on the machine.... Not to mention people disturb me and advise me to lift faster on positive because "you wont get any stronger lifting such a light weight so slowly". Working out at home, i can proceed from one exercise to other almost instantly, no music, no distractions...

      Damn people have actually had the balls to say something about the way you're lifting? I've gotten looks here in there whenever I'm on a real slow and grindy set, but I feel like the looks are always more like "hmm what the hell is he doing and should I be doing that?". There's shit form EVERYWHERE at the Crunch I train at.

      @@Mako-se8ujWell, only one person talked to me about the way i lift, but i get the ridiculed looks a lot. Not that I give a shit, the main reason is mainly that i cant switch between exercises quickly and sometimes i am going to have to wait a lot. The gyms in where i live is either unnecesarily expensive or crowded with music with people interrupting me, if i happen to live near a solid gym, without crowd and lousy music, then i will switch back to going to the gym.

    Ive been running the Golden Era System since last May and am in arguably the best shape of my life. I was 186lbs and 16-17% bodyfat when i started. I had decent leg development, but my upper body seriously lagged. I've dropped to 179lbs and ~11.5% bodyfat, and my upper body has caught up a fair deal. Despite losing weight ive also continued to gain strength. It hasnt taken a ton of time in the gym, but it has taken a level of intensity that ive had to learn and work up to over time. Currently using a 2 day upper/lower split. I train in a crunch fitness, so sometimes i have to wait on equipment, but i dont think a workout has taken me longer than 50 minutes. On especially efficient days, im done in 30 minutes. $20 a month for a crunch membership is a price of admission well worth paying.

    I mostly did a mix of ppl and u/l over the last 5 years. By far my favorite style of training has been HIT style training about twice a week. Full body sessions, 1 real WORKING set per muscle group with the occasional drop set here and there for the muscles I want to really destroy. I trained at home with a power rack for years, but doing this style at a local gym, mostly on Nautilus machines, has made a HUGE difference for me. The biggest difference has been just how much this style of training stimulates my hunger. I get pretty wrecked after I train for a couple days, and something about being super sore just makes me feel like I want to eat all the time. Pretty much for that reason alone, ever since I started training this way, I've put on size. Arms up half an inch, and I'm pretty happy that my quads seem to finally be growing again (shoutout to leg extensions). I have shirts that fit me 2 months ago that are uncomfortable to wear now, and it's all in the shoulders and chest.
    There's definitely a bit of a warmup period though. I would say it took me a good few sessions to really learn what true failure meant. Especially with the slow reps. Full warning, it's grueling. But it's just ONE set, so mentally it's easier to just push that extra bit because you know you have to nail it for this session. It's brutal, but drink a fuckton of water, EAT, SLEEP, and you'll see what's up.
    It's not that it's BETTER than anything else, but it saves you SO MUCH time while also teaching you what true exhaustion of a muscle feels like without all the risk of snapping your shit up. What's not to like?

    One must define their goals. My goals, at 54, are to maintain or even build muscle and strength so that I can do anything I want of the just normal living things. Climb six flights of stairs and not die, bike up a steep hill, chop firewood without having to stop, carry shingles up a ladder, that kind of thing, and maintain that fitness into old age without getting hurt. And have a good amount of energy throughout the week. HIT has been perfect for that. I do the Body by Science Big 3 once a week, trying to follow the intensity guidelines to the letter, go really hard until positive failure and stop, don't try to push past that. It works well, I have gained strength and muscle, I feel more fit than ever, I have lots of energy, I never get hurt, and it takes 15 minutes a week.

    We probably only live once. So why not live the longest you can and be the best version of yourself you can be? When young taking the time and learning the discipline Will mean you live a much longer life and at the top of your physical potential. That's a significantly better option than the opposite of that outcome. there's a lot of evidence to support that weight training is the best thing we know of currently to extend life expectancy and maximize your overall health throughout life. Keep up the Great videos and thanks Jay! Stay strong guys.

    @rgmann Před 2 měsíci

    I was surprised to hear you mention Planet Fitness in a somewhat positive sense, because usually all I hear is ridicule. However, I get absolutey fantastic workouts at my local PF, in a safe and efficient manner. I've actually gotten in better shape using mostly machines and cables and dumbells there, than I ever did using free weights in the past. Granted, some of their machines are garbage - but some are very good if used properly. It's all in how you use the equipment and how intensely you perform the exercises.

    True enough but, you can get pretty jacked/shredded with 4 exercises at home. Push-ups, pull-ups, bodyweight squats or lunges. Some light dumbells for side delts. Probably going to need to do it 3 times a week and take it to failure.
