    Much like intelligence, truly strong fuckers will shine no matter what. From Greg Knuckols: *Westside and Sheiko are diametrically opposed systems, but both have produced absurdly strong powerlifters*
    Also Knuckols: *I ran a basic Westside Barbell template during those first few months back under the bar, since that’s what Travis introduced me to when I first started training, and it was what I was most comfortable with. That first year, I got my maxes back to around 450/365/550. After I had plateaued on the Westside template for a few months, I decided to give Sheiko a shot. The first month nearly buried me. However, after a four month run, my work capacity was through the roof (which I think is extremely important), and my maxes were around 545/400ish/605*
    Lots of ways to get strong.

    The 'dumbest' training method is still absolutely crucial for a (good/progressing) novice. If you can get stronger by adding weight every workout, you have no business spinning your wheels in any other kind of program.

    It’s nice to hear the differences in these types of programming broken down so well. The end goal is always the same and it’s wild to me how people seem to just pick a method of periodizing and become absolute ride or die fanboys. They’re all worth trying since you never know something doesn’t work for you until you’ve done it

    A lot of parallels to my xc seasons. Base build over the summer with building up mileage and just a bunch of easy runs. Then more tempo (faster runs) and eventually speed work (400, 800, 1600 meter repeats). Finally, when we’re close to our most important race at the end of the season we pull back a lot of volume/mileage, add some pace work(a little faster than race pace), and that’s our peak.

      Mike himself says maybe the art and science of lifting from Omar isuf and Greg nuckols. Mike has a section at the beginning of his book that specifically calls that book out as a good pre req to get to know the terms and general concepts.

      @@mianashhad9802 It's not a science book, it is a book for lifters who want to get strong and want to know as much as possible about this. It is something you probably will re-read from timew to time, at least some parts of it. In order to become a good lifter, even just a recreational one, you need good quality information, and Dr. Mike's books are just that. If you want to go deeper into the research papers and publications, you have the references at the end of each chapter. Brilliant book and AFAIK it's the only one of this nature.

    A large part of online criticism is based on what is seemingly "deliberate misunderstanding". RIP's SS is "starting" strength. GMAD was for a skinny skin and bones teen and it translates to EAT KID. Lou's you don't need quads for a squat did NOT mean if you were born without quads you can still squat, and LATS for the bench does NOT mean if you're pecs disappeared you can still bench maximal weights. Dave just matured into not arguing "conjugate" because it's just a waste of time.
    You either understand concurrency,
    OR you don't.

  • @krulidn
    @krulidn Před rokem

    I can understand your response in the context of people who are so zealous about only doing one set as if the only way.
    But a couple things to consider with your counterargument and why going into bat for volume > intensity (at least that's how it came off because you didn't seem to properly explore the benefits of focusing on intensity):
    1. You know that 80% of people seeking information on youtube are beginners/people just trying to get fit within reasonable timeframes around work/kids etc? So isn't messaging about how to get 50-60% of your gains in a shorter amount of time something that should be promoted? Instead of the "Do 20-40 working sets per muscle group per week" stuff that most people can't do/won't benefit as much from relatively?.
    2: Even if people are progressing from beginner to intermediate and advanced, isn't it better that they start with quality over quantity and training with high intensity, keeping their technique good and strong. Then add volume as they need to get results? Too much fitness youtube messaging makes people feel like they necessarily have to do 3-5 sets per exercise and beginners all too often leave many reps in the tank (at 10-12 reps) just to get the volume measured by sets. Meaning they aren't upping the weight and maximally loading progressively. The research does show that even immediately trained people don't go as close to failure as they think (most have 4-5 reps left when they think they have only 1-2 left). And anecdotally, can you really say that most people in the gym really look like they're training intensely enough? A good bet as to why is that people get provided volume goals/targets and they focus on this as the primary driver for growth because that's what they're told by the fitness industry. Its a recipe for them not progressing despite a lot of time investment, so they quit.
