How to Perform Reps for Most Muscle Growth

Should you be lifting heavy weights as fast as possible or light weights with a slow controlled tension if you want maximum muscle growth? In this video, I’m going to show you the best way to perform your reps if you want to build muscle and create muscle hypertrophy from your workouts. I’m going to break out the science and show you four examples head to head so you can make sure you don’t waste any more time in the gym using methods that are inferior.

There are many different ways that you can lift a weight. Often times, it doesn’t matter which exercise you perform since the principles apply to them all. The more important question you should be asking yourself is what your training goal is at the moment. For instance, if you are training for strength then your goal with every exercise should be to make it as efficient as possible. On a bench press for example, you would want to be sure that you are pressing the bar with good speed along an optimal bar path with all muscles contributing to the lift.
If on the other hand you were trying to use the bench press as a hypertrophy exercise for the chest in particular, you would want to find a way to lessen the contribution of the triceps and shoulders and more favorably press with the chest. In addition, you would want to make the movement more inefficient by spending more time on the negative of each rep as well as holding and squeezing the contraction of the pecs at the top of every rep as much as possible.
If instead you were trying to train for hypertrophy and muscle growth then you would want to apply this concept of movement inefficiency to every exercise you did. In this video, I use the lat pulldown taken to failure as an example exercise. Now, here is where you would want to squeeze your elbows down tight into your sides and back behind your body to maximally activate the lats. You would want to think less about using the forearms to curl the bar down towards you or your biceps to pull too much on every rep.
This would create as much tension as you could and direct it to the lats. In order to speed up the hypertrophy of a particular muscle, it is this focused tension that comes in handy to get the job done. That said, you wouldn’t discredit the value of simply taking your 10 rep max on the lift and just performing reps with a movement as a whole focus instead of directing your attention to any one muscle over the other.
This is where you would see the reps start out rather easy and peak at the highest difficulty level towards the final 2-3 reps. If you had opted to go with a slightly lighter weight however and made every single rep much more difficult by focusing tension into the lats and using intensifying techniques like slow negatives and paused reps, you would elicit a greater stimulus for hypertrophy versus just pure strength.
Check out the different variations shown here and see the different effect each has on your ability to build muscle and strength. When you are done watching and are ready to start performing a program where I lay out all the workouts, sets and reps you need to do to build muscle fast, head over to the link below and get the program best suited to your goals.

[@WhatDoesMyChannelNameMean]

It would've been helpful if you'd stated the point at the end, because that made absolutely 100% no sense. You didn't say HOW to use that information, you just said you can move the green dot and that you have to understand your training, but you didn't say what moving the green dots means or what that understanding of training is. What do those things mean???? Maybe the people who already know what you are saying understand it, but for those of us who are new to this, it makes no sense at all. I'm far from stupid; I'm a 4.0 GPA. Weight lifting, however, is new to me, so I need an explanation, please.

@@shivasharma1342 Hey there, I hope that you and all of your loved ones are well, if not we will be praying for them. It would mean the world for you to give me 5 minutes of your time by reading this. I would love to tell you about Jesus and what he truly did. This is what Jesus said, ““For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as Savior] shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge and condemn the world [that is, to initiate the final judgment of the world], but that the world might be saved through Him. Whoever believes and has decided to trust in Him [as personal Savior and Lord] is not judged [for this one, there is no judgment, no rejection, no condemnation]; but the one who does not believe [and has decided to reject Him as personal Savior and Lord] is judged already [that one has been convicted and sentenced], because he has not believed and trusted in the name of the [One and] only begotten Son of God [the One who is truly unique, the only One of His kind, the One who alone can save him]." John 3:16‭-‬18 AMP Jesus is the Son of God. Before He came into the world, He and God were in perfect union. When God good made humans everything was perfect until we sinned against Him. Here is a problem: God is good, just, all-loving and perfect. And because He is a Just, Good and all knowing Judge, He can not forgive us. Since He is a Good and Just Judge He has to punish us for our sins, which He will do in Hell. But out of His Love for us, He sent Jesus, who willingly choose to come into the world out of His Love for us. He came into the World and lived a perfect life… but was crucified according to the will of God, so that God can forgive you and me of our sins He died so that you can be forgiven. Rejoice, and shout for Joy! Because three days later He rose again from death, and now as we speak He is enthroned with all power and authority. He lives so that you can live. There is real Freedom, Peace, Hope, and Joy which can only be found in Jesus. Repent (turn away from your sins) and turn to Christ who will definitely forgive all of your sins and He will make you a completely new person. Thank you for getting this far, it truely means everything thing to me that you know this truth. I love you, and I pray that you and all your loved ones may come to know Christ, so that all you can be in the coming earth with Jesus forever.

[@douglasgaunt537]

What is the negative of a rep

[@Aldo-lq8fd]

@@douglasgaunt537 It's when you're taking back the weight to the initial starting point after having moved it. Take a bicep curl: the positive (also called CONCENTRIC) is when you lift it up and your bicep fibers shorten. The negative (also called ECCENTRIC) is when you bring it back down so you can start again. The idea here is that according to Jeff, this negative (bring the weight back down) done SLOWLY is a good stimulus for muscle growth.

[@pca007]

Thank you for simplifying this video, I was beginning to get confused

[@davidblanchette1611]

And there is a study suggesting that you can get 25% more gains if you focus on the eccentric part. That means that only 33% of the gains come from concentric, so you should do it as fast as you can and control the eccentric.

Unlike other trainers who just advise PREs with increasing reps, you diligently pay attention to eccentric unloading, biomechanics, different types of levers for mechanical advantage, and other critical tidbits.

So you can lower the weight and use a single muscle to do most of the work, and as that muscle gets fatigued, you can utilize the other synergistic muscles to assist more as needed, thereby keeping the intensity high for the particular muscle you're targeting the entire set.

*How to breathe for muscle growth*

[@paybackkiller]

doesnt matter that much, with alot compound exercises its even better to hold breath during the concentric movement because it increases stability, and strength. the reason why people say you have to breath out during movement is because in ultra rare cases the blood pressure becomes too high which results in fainting. it has nothing to do with the uptake from oxygen . choose how to breath, can be different depending on exercise, just go with what gives you the best result/power output. there are no reliable studies yet that proof that holding your breath during a rep is bad

This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on mind muscle connection, aka time under tension.

[@KliFinancial]

Honestly what I got out of this was to do the controlled focused isolation, and finish it off with the assisting muscles for a couple extra final reps if needed.

It's not that Jeff accidentally miscounted but he wanted the graph to be at regular intervals like 1,6,11 but since he wrote 10 he replaced the six with 5.

I'm 55 , been working out since I was 18 or so. Variable frequency and intensity.Since subscribing, I notice my exercises and technique not so great. Shoulder problems now. You've helped tremendously, i'm back into it again with less pain. Thanks E.....

[@bullmoose6739]

My goal is hypertrophy for fat loss. Increasing metabolism. It’s worked so far, I’m just trying to avoid a serious shoulder injury after I tweaked it.

[@Wonderfowl]

As a fresh and novice person just starting their fitness journey, whom works out exclusively at home with some amazon bought sand filled weights, this sort of real information and no B.S. encouragement is the kinda thing I need to know that I am doing things correctly, and helping me figure out what I may need to adjust.

[@colbyclark2479]

What I do is go through my workout with a higher weight, not so high I cant handle it and my form is shit but high enough that its pretty hard to lift/pull. I do that with all my exercises and then go over my ENTIRE workout again with light weight strickly working on PERFECTING my form and create a hard way to get from A to Z. (Like talked about it video) I have been loving it

Bottom line, to quote the great Arnold Schwarzenegger: you've got to get the mind-muscle connection. Lose the ego, grab a lighter weight, and start feeling the contraction of the muscle you're trying to work.
