    I've spent years trying to build muscle naturally and let me start by saying it's not easy. There's so much misinformation out there on how to build muscle as a natural and even if you were to find the right information there's so much of it that it's easy to get overwhelmed and not take action. I felt that first hand as ive gone through phases where my goal was to strictly be as bulky as possible and other phases where the goal was to get as lean as possible. Over the years of going through dirty bulks, clean bulks, cutting phases, trying different supplements, as well as constantly modifying my workout plan I went through a lot of trial and error. And I want you to avoid making the same mistakes that I did so you can see results as fast as possible by focusing on the things that truly matter when it comes to building muscle while ignoring the rest. So today I want to go over the 5 biggest muscle building mistakes that you're probably making that are preventing you from seeing the gains you deserve. Let's jump right In and start with the biggest workout related mistake that beginners and advanced people make. Always sticking to the same rep range. There is a rep range that is believed to better for building muscle and even though there's a lot of debate about what the best rep range is most people will agree that it falls somewhere between 6 to 12 reps. The best results that I noticed were always within a narrower rep range of 5 or 6 to 8 reps. However by constantly sticking to this same rep range you're going to have a lot of trouble making progress especially after you're no longer a beginner and results start slowing down. This is why you want to spend time with three different rep ranges low moderate and high. Your moderate rep range could be 6 to 8 reps. Your low rep range wlcould be roughly 3 to 4 reps and your high rep range could be 12 to 15 reps. You would spend two to three weeks working on each rep range and you would do this because each rep range has benefits that will transfer over to the other rep ranges helping you get stronger and build muscle faster. The three to four rep range allows you to lift a much heavier weight which will then make the weight that you were using for your moderate and higher rep ranges a lot easier allowing you to lift heavier weights for those rep ranges as well. With a high rep range of 12 15 or even 20 reps you'll be increasing your endurance and your body will adapt to an increased production of lactic acid. This will help you squeeze out extra reps at the moderate rep range and even the low rep range with the very heavyweight. Breaking up your work out into periods of low moderate and high rep ranges is known as periodization and this will allow you to continuously increase the intensity of your workouts in the shortest amount of time possible ultimately leading to some very impressive results. Your body is very good at adapting and periodization is a great way to constantly keep it guessing which is a big plus when it comes to building muscle. The next mistake is undervaluing the importance of food. If you happen to be a hardgainer you have to eat a lot of food to build muscle. if you're not a hardgainer you still have to eat a lot of food to just not as much. Muscle is metabolically active tissue and due to our biology and the way that we've evolved our bodies try to conserve energy whenever they can to ensure that we don't starve. So from an energy conservation standpoint your body doesn't want to build muscle and you're going to have to force it into growth.

      @mister poopies you have any idea what the people who hide from the real world are called?
      Professors. Professors themselves are cringe. They don't know anything about their given topic, and usually have no life experience.
      Take my neighbour for example. An electrical engineer. 54. Has two children to an ex wife who divorced him for everything, 20 years prior. Ten years ago, he meets a drop dead gorgeous 27 year old, whose been divorced twice, cleaned both those husband's out. Electrical engineer marries her despite all his friends warning him she's a gold digger, and ten years later, she's accumulated two homes in her name from him, through a club sport into the divorce settlement, making it her third car, and has even turned their young boys against their old man. He might not be a professor, but he could be if he wanted to.
      You may or may not realise one of these days that there's a difference between people that can impress an audience of students, and people that have results.
      The information guys with results offer may not jive with you personally or fit into your preferences. We can't implement everything we want. But anyone with results pretty much knows a lot about what they're talking about. And a diploma is not necessarily a result. Diplomas are like trophies that all kids get just for playing.

It will make you stronger with people that is on your weight class. High reps I notice will also increase muscle endurance especially in things like obsracle course or anything that warrants it. Atleast my experience when lifting all these years. I'm 5'2 so bulking up is not an option for me, but i'm lean and have good definition. Atleast that is what mostly everyones goal.

    Absolutely believe in changing it up. I wish I knew it years ago. Figured it out myself, with a friend a couple years ago. I used to do only low rep and medium rep workout sessions. Then my friend would do 40 rep workouts mixed in, and it made a huge difference on him, so I started too. It also gives your joints and ligaments a rest from all heavy weights. Think of your joints now, when you are young and you won't have osteoarthritis like I have after 40 years of lifting

    To the consistency point. As a lifter going on 40 let me make this clear. Train with the long term in mind. You want to limit injuries. When I was in my early 20s my mentor who was 35 and won the Mr. Illinois at 40 was always complaining about his hips.
    Young and stupid as I was I commented that my hips were bullet proof. Nope I was wrong I was simply in my early 20s. You dont have bullet proof anything.
    I see young kids doing a lot of stupid things in the gym because, it activates the target muscle better, wide elbow bench (shoulder impingement) would be a good example, forward lunges (extreme sheer force on the knee) are another good example.
    Long term nothing will slow your progress more than injury. Dont to X because you read in a magazine that a study says that causes 2% more muscle activation in the target muscle group p = 0.05 when X moves your body through an unnatural plane of motion that either has the potential for serious injury or causes long term repetitive stress injuries.
    Its not worth it. You will lose in the long run because of it.

      It's why I find lunges to be stupid: even with weights, I always get utterly awkward stress points on areas where they shouldn't be (e.g. my knees). I stopped doing them as fast as I started doing them with kettles. No thank you.

    it really depends though, everyones body works differently. i switched to lower weight and shot for 15 reps at a time so i would feel the burn around 10, and would have to push hard to get those last 2 in. this has worked best for me and i have got pretty fast results , but i have other buddies who usually do high weight and like 6 to 8 reps. and it works great for them.

Currently, I'm sitting around 185 - 187 lbs and I'm solid. This information is crucial and I cannot stress it enough. Thank you so much !

    I agree with the whole rep range theory, or what you call periodization. Thomas Delauer has a similar approach, where he suggests working out for a couple weeks with lower rep ranges, then switching it up to high rep ranges for the same amount of time. I was afraid you were going to suggest a one-rep-range-over-all-others routine, but I was pleasantly surprised. Good video...

    • @haffizhissham
      @haffizhissham Před rokem +1

      @caseyburnet , May I ask how to arrange the schedule for rep range?
      for example:
      1st week - moderate reps 3kg weight
      2nd week - high reps 3kg weight
      3rd week - low reps with 6kg weight
      4th week - moderate with more than 3kg weight?
      a biut confused how to utilize this method.

  • @kiowhatta1
    @kiowhatta1 Před 5 lety +52

    After 30 years of all kinds of exercise, I've found the following to be true: Everyone is different, from genetics to metabolism and so forth, so experimentation and going with what your gut tells you or what your body is telling you intuitively.
    The ratio often promulgated about diet being 90% and training 10% is rubbish. It's like saying a ten-minute walk with intense cognitive focus is better than a 30-minute power walk.
    It's more around the 50-50% ratio more or less. I say sticking to the simple output exceeding input is a great start.
    More importantly, if there is no fun factor or sense of learning a new skill like boxing where the incentive to keep training lies in getting better is important.
    The industry has become infiltrated and highly technical, with lots of jargon and BS language. Depending on what result you are going for it's as simple as 1. Stretching. Mixing up cardio with strength training. Then stretching again. I advise supplementing your hard workouts with pilates (which I can't praise enough), swimming, and other supplementary exercises.
    All I do is watch my diet, stay away from high-end fatty foods, strength circuit training once a week and a boxing workout once a week. This is enough for me to stabilise my weight because at the end who wants to grind their way down to a weight that is unsustainable, lasts three weeks before your body 'defaults' back to a regular weight.
    Remember we live in a ridiculously over-obsessed supposedly health-focused society, which in reality is about how attractive do I look? We all work out hard for a variety of reasons, but mostly we are looking for validation from the opposite sex.
    In Australia, women here have such an over-inflated opinion of themselves it's not worth copping the crap you will almost always get from approaching a woman, so I have let go of the vanity fueled exercise regimen - ignoring boring, aloof, rude, unapproachable women at gym's, and find it's much easier to concentrate.
