I've been doing around 40k steps per day for about 8 years now, and have zero problems.

I average 300k a week at my job, so yea it is possible

My sister yells at me to put my phone away even when we’re in public, my mom yelled at me and told me to stop reading everything on the internet cause a lot of it is propaganda, misinformation, or really dumb. But, I’m pretty much on the same boat everyone else is in when I say that I too wish the internet went back to the early days when you can have civil discussions online and meet people while expressing your creative side and sharing pictures of cats and dogs. I hate how the internet is now and days. Everyone seems so narcissistic and mean spirited, you’re constantly flooded with negativity, there’s drama happening either with an industry or a online community, and you can’t even have a discussion or disagree with people without them getting upset and deeming you toxic or problematic. Also yeah with the AI craze, you truly begin to question what’s real or what’s not online as well.

he mentioned the reason for his slow gains may be his diet, unrealistic expectations, inconsistency or not working hard enough, its possible that he may be working too hard, its not something people seem to mention alot. just from personal experience, i was working out 6 days a week hitting personal bests with a great diet and sleep, however, i gained more muscle mass and got leaner when i switched to 2 days a week, mike mentzer recommended 1 workout every 4 days with intense workouts, allowing the whole body to recover, despite only training legs on a monday for example, you must wait till friday to train chest and back because the whole body needs to recover and lack of soreness is not a good indicator for a fully recovered body, i was allowing the body to recover while also allowing for high intensity quality workouts, whereas before i was probably just getting the reps in and sacrificing real quality workouts and proper recovery.

lil bro just didn't eat enough. Sad. Regardless of training and macros he would have gained either muscle or fat if he ate.

I think the best solution is eat more proteins , buy gymnastic rings it will humble you. You will see some gains because it’s unstable so it reveals your weaknesses so it recruits more muscle fibres. You will struggle the 1st month and will be noticing more strength and muscle gains.

Why are you stealing the thumbnail of Renaissance Periodization

Gains in strength highly depend on the compound selection. You have to ask yourself in the most critical manner why since their invention and synthesis they have been used by every single elite Olympic strength based team and athlete in order to absolutely smoke their competition. If you haven't, you should definitely watch "Icarus", it's incredibly thrilling as well as truly eye-opening in terms of really revealing the the true extent of anabolic use. Also, you have top tier genetics as well as phenomenal work ethic my friend. Im afraid you can't paint celebrities with insane time constraints and MILLIONS OF DOLLARS on the line with the same brush as yourself... I want to believe just as much as you do bro, its just so unlikely these days man... Finally, as one relevant example in terms of doping in general, take professional football/soccer players for example, isnt it strange that as of the last two years over 80% of these pro soccer players have suddenly developed adult onset asthma?? All of the treatments for which are banned performance enhancing drugs...

I get leaner and it’s a mental discipline for me and I love it and I lift weights as well

I usually walk 20,000-23,000 steps per day. I am going to push for 40,000 today

Well show us your legs then.

I only clicked on this to say wtf is that tricep in the thumbnail 💀

I keep getting injured squatting. Doesn’t happen with leg press. I also cant fail on squat like I can on leg press.

tbh if ur gonna legpress you should max out the rom of the machine

Remember guys, dont listen to someone thats smaller than you🤣

100% correct. Dropped the Barbell Squat for the Hack Squat and Leg Press and my legs have never been bigger. Way safer to g to failure.

Damn I don’t usually comment but I HAD to say something. If you have trouble squatting, then you probably have an underlaying issue that needs to be addressed. Leg presses might be great too but for me, it puts bandaid to the problem. For longevity and overall great health, it’s ass to grass.

Seen the thumbnail and thought it was a woman

bro wtf is that thumbnail felt like i got catfished

Anyone who claims this just don’t wanna do the hard work it takes to squat. Squats develop your legs way better and its no comparison. This whole video is copium

I have switched to using back squats for glutes. . Doing 7 sets of leg extensions pre exhaust. I’m big as hell 299 pounds 5 o low body fat.

😙

Why are you posting workout advice when you don't even look like you workout? Go get a real job

How much weight you loss ?

I hate how it's so damn crowded.

I've noticed this too. It seems like the whole gym atmosphere is designed to keep you away including the vapid annoying music.

It‘s a very weird and exploitative era of the internet right now. I really dont see any way out of it, except when thinking completly out of the box, it really feels like the endgame of the internet. But at the same time: We were never able to predict the future and we will get surprised. I just hope a big shift comes sooner than later..

Loving the content! I had no idea his diet was so bad 😂

I trained arms every day and didn't see results. 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ You are the reason they need do not eat labels on shampoo dude. EVERY MUSCLE NEEDS TIME TO RECOVER. EVERYDAY IS NOT RECOVERING. If you're training for hypertrophy then look at someone who has mastered hypertrophic aka every professional bodybuilder. Sure they also use enhancements but NONE OF THEM SKIP ARMSS. WHAT GOD GIVEN DELUSION GIVES YOU THE OPINION YOU CAN?

The thing is I can't find any study that would compare back work and direct biceps work mesuring hyperthrophy. But extrapolating knowledge of correlation between how close to failure the muscle is at the end of set and muscle hyperthrophy, we can estimate just how much gains we can expect from compound lifts. if we talk about pull ups for example, we should also take into account resistance curve, bcs exposing muscles to high tension under stretch results in 5-10% additional growth. So I we could esstimate, if we modify technique such that biceps will be 1-3 reps from failure when lats fail completely than we can probly get most of the gains of direct arm work. Unfortunatly dew to the resistance curve we cannot take advantige of strech medieted hypertrophy, but it should be comparable to standard curls. Therefore I would be confident in saying, if you do sufficent amount of back work with right technique you could expect 70-80% of potencional biceps gains? You could use these principles to determine the effectivnes for triceps as well I think you would arrive on 80-90% of gains, dew to abundance of compounds lift you probly do that use triceps and their resistance curves, except for the long head which greatly benefits from overhead extentiuons. So you are correct that you can get most of gains without direct work, but you should take the effort to modify the lifts so you can get most out of them for the arms.

I actually think training arms is a bit like training calves. At some point, you just won't grow due to genetic limits. I have huge calves, naturally. Very large, rounded, lean looking. But most people couldn't train in such a way to give them my calves. I do a little tiny bit of training, but all my calf mass was basically there since I was an adult. I think that you will get the bulk of your mass, in your arms, from using them extensively as secondary muscles to major lifts for your chest and back, then get very minor results from direct arm exercises. All of this is assuming the average person is natural, none of this applies when PEDs are in use. Bodybuilders on PEDs can clearly get much larger than the average person.

I do 40000 a day at my work. I work as a sales advisor in a big city. We walk so much

"Promo SM" 😅

great video!

great vid

I work from home, mostly on my notebook tablet PC. So I can walk many steps. I have been doing 40k steps per day constantly. A lot of it depends on mainly 1) the time you have to dedicate to do it and 2) your level of cardiovascular fitness. I regularly bike for cardio health and fitness so people like me have built it up from years of biking. For me I have very little fatigue from 40k steps. But I only do it for a few weeks at a time for small aggressive cuts. And I cycle them. I find that I can comfortably do 25k steps daily. 40 takes a bit more work but still is fairly low fatigue for me. I think people who are not used to cardio and have not built up tier cardio based add too many steps in too fast and that’s where they get fatigued. I burn about 1700-2000 cal per day walking 40k steps at 194 6’4”. It allows me to eat a lot more while cutting rapidly. Even at 25k steps per day I still can eat a decent amount and still lose decent weight after my bulks. Without steps, I have to cut on 2500k or less calories to lose weight. The constrained model of energy expenditure is a flawed model because the amount of calories it conserves is NOT linear. Otherwise concentration camp victims or pro athlete cyclists would not all be thin. But there is good literature refuting that model. What actually happens is your body conserves a certain amount of calories *up to a point* and then that’s it. There is a limited. It will generally conserve a few 100 calories on average. To me it sounds like you went into steps too quickly without building a good cardio base or level of fitness. If you try to burn that much off from running you’ll likely be more fatigued and have more wear on your knees as you age. At least try biking if you want to do something that burns calories faster with less wear on the joints. But walking burns mostly fat and is less intense so it won’t cause the hunger spikes like higher intensity cardio will. But again, most ppl have to slowly work up to that level of fitness as with any cardio.

Thanks for this man!

Good video

Hi, Your Content is very Nice. But your video SEO score is very low due to which your videos are not ranking well. if you want we can discuss Grow Your Channel Fast.❤❤

The final set to failure is what I do. It really feels nice to know I went 100% on that exercise.

Thank you for the advise, man. Hope your channel keeps growing

does your hair give you strength like Hercules' hair did?

This is a great video, mindset is very crucial to physical strength, and as we age we have the capacity to become stronger, but it takes more work and discipline, which few people decide to invest in, im near 30 and am stronger than I have ever been, thanks for this video brother, God bless ❤

I'm 38 now and started lifting one year ago I'm stronger then ever, almost at 300 bench started at 185 max , I hit 285 easy and getting stronger. (I could be there already i haven't maxed) also doing pullups dead lift dips squats pushups 5 days week 1 hour

It's the opposite for me, I'm in my mid 30s, I break down easy I have less energy. I've got five hernias, bad elbows, and I messed up my rotator cuff. I wish I could go back to my twenties I was stronger.

didn't start declining in strength unit i was 50 now at 57 not nearly as strong as i used to be

Thanks, man. This makes a lot of sense and you are much more pleasant to listen to than some of the other experts here on KZbin...

Thanks for this man!! Quick question : Doing bench, deadlifts and squats all in one workout with that many sets plus (optional) isolation lifts seems like a reallyy long workout. Have you ever experimented with splitting up the volume/frequency? As in, rather than doing full body twice a week, doing it legs (squats), push (bench), pull (back) twice a week with one rest day a week?

Another insecure fake natty grifter. You can do better

Bro go for shorts
