  • @kindredessex3827
    @kindredessex3827 Před 4 lety +5

    If anyone is interested in giant sets, I would advise adding them in over the course of a program. For example in Brian's Darkhorse program, do them in the strength portion the first 3 weeks. Add them to the volume along with the strength in the 2 3 week block. In the last block add them to the accessory part of the session. By the time weeks 7-9 come, you'll be ready for anything!
    At first, they can be overwhelming. But, think about them in the same way you think about lifts. You build to the big líft over time. You should build to the great conditioning too.
    Just my opinion

    What Brian said at the 9:00 mark I completely agree with as long as your getting after it that's what's really important and I may not race to failure on EVERY set but I try to hit failure on every exercise and if I don't hit failure at the end of all my sets then I usually do an isometric hold all the way to failure or two unilateral sets to failure at the end of the bilateral exercise sets.
    So yes Brian I do train to failure at least once on every body part just about every time I lift. I just don't race to failure yet like you do because I'm still trying to build my strength up. And I believe that my method works just fine for me......at least for now.

      ryan rogers It’s not his primary sport but yeah he’s said he wouldn’t be able to train in martial arts if he was doing traditional powerlifting. He doesn’t compete in grappling or MMA, his primary sport is strongman But as he says it has good carry over to both. There are a few athletes that do both strongman and MMA/other combat sports. It seems to be the one strength sport you can really combine with another high fitness high athletic demand sport and succeed at both. It’s definitely good conditioning for martial artists. When I was boxing we did a lot of the stuff he does just without the heavy lifts but some of the better fighting coaches know the value of heavy weights for mma when utilized correctly... but I digress.
