80/60 Drop: (This is a single workout session) 3 sets X 5 reps - 80% (2min rest) -> Did you hit all your sets? Add 5 pounds at you next workout (write it down!). 3 sets X 17 reps - 60% (60 to 90sec rest)

[@Brain320]

What if you hit the 80% easily with plenty to spare but can't hit 3x17 at 60? Best I could do is 17-15-14

[@Outrunninaround.]

Am I understanding this correctly? 6 sets total in one workout?

[@joshgroban5291]

@@Brain320I’d say drop the weight, or increase the rest between sets. Definitely try the latter first

[@oghennylo3]

Drop sets to failure is a must not only to break those plateaus but to train your mind to go till you absolutely can not go any more.

[@alb3926]

You recommended this previously. I’ve been following the advice after a plateau, and with ease I am now benching more than ever. It works. Thank you!

[@r.y3987]

How quick did you see it working

[@alb3926]

Straight away. I bench twice a week. This is my second bench workout, and I raise the amount on the main bench workout once every 3 weeks. It worked on the first time I hit 3 weeks, and has worked every time since (4 cycles). Everyone’s body responds differently but it’s worth a try!

[@dorseyj.bourrage5841]

Can you do a video on the benefits of the thick bar for athletes??

[@dylanmcfarling2033]

So I saw you recommend this in another video a while back and tried it, but I wish I had heard the thing about goblet squats at a lighter load with less rest because doing 15-17 reps on a low bar squat at 60% is pretty fucking rough by that last set haha. Its been working great though! Cheers

[@MorbinTime420lol]

One my second week of this and that 3x17 is killer. Only able to hit it x15 x5 x4. Will update this with my PR increase in after 5 weeks. Currently 455

Update?

Whats ur thoughts on a 5, 5, 5, 3, 3 bench session reps for strength

[@tonyabbsmuscleworkout254]

Great detailed explanation! Thank you!!!

[@johnfrenzied4592]

I wish I had you as a coach in high school

[@tylerjarman2121]

The example you used at the beginning is literally me stuck at 280 wanting to hit 315+ stuck at it for almost a year

[@williambilinski]

I would love for you to do some videos with the mindset himself, Sticky Ricky…you guys would crush some heavy weights while dropping some loads of knowledge and golden tidbits on each other.

[@GarageStrength]

hmm. we have been thinking about doing a video on pro wrestling...

[@williambilinski]

Hell yeah!

[@masonboi9334]

I can easily get 80% for 5 but can barely get 60% for 12

[@thomascicalesejr.6866]

Can this also be applied to deadlifts and Squats

[@sandran2086]

This is for increase strength and hypertrophy right, not just for hypertrophy ?

[@bombasticnonsense4247]

I started 80/60 today with bench, pendlay row, deadlift, and military press. I love it! Thanks for this. Edit: all done with the first day. That was intense!

[@maxnavarro632]

I'm confused it's 6 sets in a session

[@abdimalikomar4023]

How many times did u bench a week?

[@faatuimotu]

Great info as always. Quick question do you except prepaid Visa cards for your programs, interested in your Vertical Manifesto program

[@wombatpuppy4436]

Completely died off on the weight drop at 80kg for 17 then 14 then last set I was spent and only made 7, amazing

[@Sky_TEC_Illustraition_Systems]

T-Shirts 🔥 broski.

[@Tiernanb]

So at 190 lbs, at a 275 lb max bench, this is what I did to get my plateuas out the way. (I only did this once a week, my other chest day was a more heavy based chest day, this is a volume based) I did a 5,4,3,2,1 Set split for flat bench (15 sets of bench in total) 5 Sets of 80% for 3-5 Pause Reps (Big Emhpasis on Pause 1-2 Seconds) 4 Sets of 75% for 5-7 Pause Reps 3 Sets of 70% for 6-8 Pause Reps 2 Sets of 60% for 8-12 Pause Reps 1 Set of 50% till failure Then I would move to incline Dumbbells 5 Sets of 10-12 superset with incline dumbbell flys 5 Sets of close grip Dips (I do weighted) until failure Then a cable Pushdown, Reverse Pushdown, and reversed ez bar curls for triceps and forearms circuit for 5 sets.

[@kylekelly4648]

Will this work for squats?

[@kylekelly4648]

Never mind I should’ve waited until the video finished

[@EquityCall]

I never thought I'd be taking lifting advice from a guy in a TLC shirt but here we are...

[@xxtoxicxx0676]

I’ve been doing this and I love it so far but how many times a week should you be doing this rep scheme?

[@morganmcnevin278]

Did u ever find out how many times a week to do 80/60 drop? Or what other chest workouts should u do for the rest of week?

[@Thiefowastaken]

Is this effective for any movement such as squat, or should this only be applied to bench?

[@zerrodefex]

He explains using it on other movements in the second half of the video.

[@kevinorr7228]

I wonder if this would work with push press?

[@challyferdler7158]

Dane don’t want no scrub gains

[@GarageStrength]

Hollering scrubs ain’t welcome at GS

[@stephencrawford7621]

Would this work on Olympic lifts? I am plateaued on my clean and wondering if I could use this split on that.

[@siddharthraychaudhuri7250]

You can use it on deadlift, front squats and overhead presses...maybe that can help you clean and jerk.

[@joe1071]

There’s another professional athlete coach that says Max testosterone production is achieved by 6 sets 10 reps at 80% max. That’ll put some hair on your chest

[@arnoldjenkins5455]

Can’t beat your pb? Don’t go chasing waterfalls

[@maxnavarro632]

Wait I'm confused 6 total reps of bench press in a session??

[@martinlutherking8169]

Is this really focused to increase strength? I think this will cause hypertrophy to a greater degree with some strength increase..

[@godkung1]

So 80% scheme one day and 60% scheme on another day within same week?

[@GarageStrength]

No this is the same exercise on the same day. Sets at 80% then drop sets at 60%

[@pretty_flaco]

can i use this for barbell curls?

[@cartshal7185]

i’d recommend 21s

[@oldnatty61]

Why 17? Why not 15 or 20?

[@glenntimmons4203]

Also begginers do not use a suicide grip..your health is in danger..use a spotter or safety bar..

[@glenntimmons4203]

Safety FIRST..mention setting the weight back like that ..is sloppy ..just saying set it back with control..I'm on the right path..

[@darionjohnson7643]

Where do you get your fat bar?

[@aiami2695]

Did you also say something about gaining weight to grow more muscle? 😁👍👍

[@toddcuster4395]

Wht isnt this guy have a better grip on the bar especialy on higher rep sets?

[@faggianogeuiseppi5135]

Dumb question. What do you mean when you are saying “doubles” or “Triples” doubles and triples of different exercises or weight or?

[@Vagabund92]

He means 2 reps (doubles) and 3 reps (triples), nothing else.

[@ronlugbill1400]

What if you are an athlete and you are worried about gaining weight due to hypertrophy training?

[@victorruiz567]

With my 80% I can do like 10-12 reps am I weird or smthing

[@inderjitsingh5228]

[@cliffordtindall4529]

Why 17 reps? Why not 16 or 18?

[@GarageStrength]

We had an athlete pass away whose uniform number was 17. We often use that for our hypertrophy rep range in honor of him.
