    I read BBS about 12 years ago and started using it with great results. I was in my late 40s. Over the past decade, I've undergone multiple orthopedic surgeries due to old injuries and osteoarthritis. Having the physical base from these techniques and an understanding of how it works, My recovery times have been great, as has my ability to push through PT. I've used the concepts in PT and shared them with many therapists along the way. I've gotten some very surprising and complimentary comments from my orthopedic surgeons, who both work with pro athletes here in Chicago.

The biggest obstacle for some of us if finding trainers that are proficient at the slow method of working out in the manner Doug has taught! Everyone around me INISISTS that the; repetitive "3 sets of 10 " of all the movements is THE way to gain muscle. VERY tough to find a trainer that knows this method!

    I think, and as I can see the research shows, results are so dependent on individuality, as well as individual muscle groups. For example certain muscles blew up for me when I trained them less and heavier. But other muscles, like arms and quads, didn’t. Seems like we all want to be dogmatic, when maybe there is no dogmatic answer.

  • @Lance54689
    @Lance54689 Před 8 měsíci +5

    This video has a nugget that has been very helpful for me. The idea of how to tell if overtrained. I wasn't grinding out that last rep, instead doing things like drop set type stuff to increase the intensity. I was very tired for several days after. Since watching this, I've gone to war with that last rep, doing everything to get that next inch. It has been a huge change. I'm more sore, more depleted afterwards, but I quickly feel better and I'm having good energy later in the day and the next. Just as described in this video. Very nice improvement.

    • @Lance54689
      @Lance54689 Před 7 měsíci +1

      I just finished my latest HIT Big 3, and just can't believe how different it is with the added intensity. Overall metabolic stress is down, I don't feel tired, but I grimace when I lift my arms, I have to use the handrail to go up stairs even 20 minutes after workout. I think what I'm feeling is what it is like to not have access to the stronger muscle fibres. ALSO, I was noticably stronger today compared to last workout. I guess if you really push muscles beyond their limits, they will grow. Who knew?! We all knew, of course, I just didn't realize the level intensity needed.

    • @IntuitiveCoachTheresa

      That's a super helpful description of what this looks like in one's experience, thank you! It's hard to really glean what fighting for that last rep really is like.

      Yes, you have to battle the final rep and let it win…if it takes a very long time to get to that final rep, then you need to up the weight…..
      Your muscles will throw everything they have at the stimulus and that is when the adaptation and growth will happen.

    I was a trainer at a Big 5 studio and I noticed that the performance of the second push / pull exercise in the routine almost always suffered - for most trainees. Row / Pulldown are targeting many of the same muscle fibers so the back was sufficiently stimulated with just one exercise.
    I started to include only one push and one pull in a routine, two or three exercises for legs and hips and one for lower back / abdominal.

    • @Lance54689
      @Lance54689 Před 8 měsíci +2

      I found the same thing personally. Four months ago I went from 5 to 3. Well 3.2, since for push I like to do a dip/pushup superset. So Reverse grip pulldown, dip pushup superset, squat, once a week. I'm getting better results, and this certainly hits all the major muscle groups.

      Perform the row with the elbows high (think bench press but in the other direction). That will take the lats out of the movement, targeting the rear delt and middle and lower fibers of the trapezius.

    It turns out you don’t have to train to failure. You can do an abbreviated workout, do one hard set and make excellent progress. No matter which method you subscribe to, the common denominator is that you must get strong. And to get strong, you just have to lift more weight each week ALL ELSE BEING EQUAL. So do a HIT routine but don’t kill yourself. You’ll recover faster, and make great progress

      But the average person is fully recovered after about 7 days

      If you are gaining strength every single workout , your resting enough
      If your not making very very regular gains
      You may need to try training less

      Normaly I train on monday or tuesday. Then rest till friday.
      Monday I will do just legs. Tipically lunges and one single leg calf raises. If I'm feeling great I will also do 2 exercises for the abs: sits up and leg raises.
      I do both with weight. The reps range it's around 10 to 15 reps. I just go to totally failure.
      I will also use advanced techniques to increase the amount of stress: like take it to failure then rest 2 to 4 seconds and do another 1 or 2 reps.
      Then finnish with one or 2 drop sets.
      I know Vince says that doesn't ad any extra benefit in terms of increasing strength but with me it's till totally pain and exaustion. I need that experience.
      Friday I will do: chest, back, shoulders, bicepts and tricepts:
      Declined dumbels press 2 sets (one warm up set) then all out intensity; around 12 to 15 reps;
      Dips- till failure (around 10 reps)
      Elevations till failure, one set.
      Lateral raises- two sets; around 10 to 15 reps;
      Rear delts- 2 sets; around 15 reps;
      Shoulder press with dumbels. Sometimes I will do Arnold Press; around 10 to 12 reps;
      Biceps: concentration curl- 2 sets; around 15 reps;
      Triceps: 1 set or 2 around 15 reps;
      The last set it's allways to failure.
      One thing If i'm feeling lethargic I will just do chest (since it's my weak point) and abs on Friday.
      And that's all.
      A good suplement just for burning fat and and taking care of my nutrition, eating wealthy to stay fit.
      We don't need to pay a coach to learn this stuff. There are on you tube thousands of guys teaching this stuff for free. At most go to a gym and let the instructors teaching you how to do the exercises and that's enought.

The only way to get good at any type of athletic movement (even strength ones) is repeating the movements over and over again until your body gets used to them and good at them. They try to say that “exercise” (weight training) is somehow different then any kind of sports/skill training. But it isn’t, especially if one truly understands how the neuromuscular system works (and how quickly our bodies can actually recover if treated properly).

      This might seem contradictory: On one hand walking is NOT exercise. On the other hand, because it doesn't fatigue the muscular or circulatory systems, & doesn't present a real risk of injury, it can be done as much you choose, with no negative effect on workouts. Low intensity activity's caloric burn%'s almost all fat; not much per step, but it all counts, & you can walk virtually all day if you have the time:^)

It's lifetime sustainable: When bodybuilders & strongmen give up, you're still getting stronger, (at least relatively, within your age-group.) //Also, timing reps is a good way to assure true progress, not faking it by changing speeds. Longer times allow for more precise measurement: 9 instead of 10's a 10% speed-up, but 1 instead of 2's 50%.

Most people can make the connection between Arthur Jones and the Nautilus machines but his real contribution was stressing the importance of brief and intense exercise, one set to failure , performed infrequently back in the early 1970s. It was his genius, insight and impeccable logic that provided this groundwork of exercise physiology that we know today. Both Dr McGuff and Drew Baye fortunately will ensure that Jones` legacy and contributions will not be forgotten.

    I personally like two working sets per exercise with max TUT where I go close to failure with only 1-2 RIR per set. This is somewhat similar to the HIT low volume approach.
    But I find it a bit more forgiving on my CNS, so I'm not totally wrecked, and it allows slightly more overall volume. Doing 2-3 full body workouts per week like this works well for me.
    I still disagree on cardio having no value to vo2 max and performance, though. While compound exercises may get my HR up, I still enjoy a separate cardio stimulus 3x per week for health/recovery. Having good general fitness only makes you a better overall lifter.

      Mike Israetel is factually wrong if he claims that "you need the volume" in order to gain muscular strength and size, as the many people who have developed great physiques using lower volume high intensity training have proven. I've trained both ways over the past 30+ years, and have always made better progress using lower volume high intensity training than with lower intensity high volume training. Plus, at 58 years old I'm still in fantastic condition and have zero injuries, all from using proper excercise technique with a fairly slow rep speed (4-6 seconds).

    So would the strength of your muscles be greater if you did powerlifting or training to failure? I assume powerlifters are stronger than bodybuilders because they train with higher intensity but they don’t go to failure so they aren’t as big. And is cardio necessary if you plan on competing in MMA?

      Exhibiting strength's a skill. Powerllfting, in that sense, is no different from tennis, et al: It needs to be practiced, exactly as it's done in competition, with exactly the same tools. They don't go to failure because it would put an end to the practice session, but they come very close to failure, & take huge breaks between lifts to avoid failure. Lifting heavy weights makes the nervous system acclimated to the effort. If these are issues for you, lift that way. //The best 'cardio' for MMA is long sparring sessions w/equally-skilled partners.

I know it’s a skill and strength is a skill so if you wanted to be as strong as possible wouldn’t 1 rep maxing make sense? Training to failure does recruit all available motor units in a target muscle but wouldn’t you get stronger muscle contractions the lower in reps you went since intensity also goes up? Like a 1 rep max would contract muscles harder than a 5 rep max. Training to failure on a machine and failing on rep number 12 is basically a 12 rep max.
