How Can You Gain 4lb Muscle In A Month?

[@the_fitness_doc]

Did you know that gene sequencing is getting to the stage now where “designer babies” could be altered right down to the androgen receptor density? What a crazy world we live in. Great video as always love the science Greg!

[@mitchellbrown1856]

Designer drugs, designer babies.... what could go wrong!

[@andyvanmuilekom7390]

Elaborate plz

[@ecos889]

Umm no thier is an actual legit reason why gene sequencing being used to create designer babies and it's in no way ethical but more practical. Two words disease resistances. Ones ability to resist disease is determined by random potential mutations within the body that is formed at the point of mutation and if a disease is formed that say targets those with "High androgen receptor density" Then the group who created with that are basically facked. See why the Sickle cell gene for example as a singular copy of the gene can boost disease resistance against malaria a seemingly. Genetic diversity is great for a species the less genetically diverse we are the more likely a big nasty can kill us all be it microbial or environmental. The only exception when CRISPR or whatever new gene sequencing tech that proceeds it should be used is on the basis of when the potential infant is unlucky and contains the sickle cell gene in both parts of their chromosome forming sickle cell amenia and any other simple genetic disease that is entirely based on a single gene. Like it won't likely be practical for more complex genetic issues that a based on a combination of many genes and make editing have an unlikely unintended consequences. This is also not to mention the ethical side of things that will result in a lot and I mean a lot of dead infants just to perfect the technology similar to how cloning often had a lot of unexpected consequences on the offspring produced using that technology.

They can‘t even handle a flu and they think they can build superhumans? LOL

[@mcjesus5603]

They use a thing called CRISPR CAS9 and it will change the world for a better can't wait for it to end genetic diseases. My mom has genetic disease called macular dystrophy it's genetic and effects the eye hopefully I can get her treated for it eventually If I could summarize this century I would say “A Very Bright Yet Scary Future”

[@Tejoshmoy]

coach greg.. we will really appreciate it if you can make a video explaining both types of the muscle fibres and how they determine what sport the person is best suited for.. thanks

[@mortenlarsen7220]

Really easy if your type 1 you are better suited for endurance sports long distance running, tour de france type , if you are type 2 you are better suited for expolsive type of sports powerlifting, strongman and the sorts.

[@ckit6_fitness]

@Morten Larsen there are 3 separate type 2 muscle fibres, which is important to mention

[@dc3565]

easily googled answer

[@mortenlarsen7220]

@@ckit6_fitness Ehhh Type 2 A and Type 2 B, they are still the same type fatiques fast and burns through ATP fast and are expolsive. Type 2B is just even more expolsive than type 2A, they arent different types thats why they are both called type 2 but with A or B added.

[@Hot-Tamale]

GREAT question!

[@TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

The best explanation I've seen when it comes to myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic growth, good stuff greg.

[@ethanhealy9436]

Damn, you have commenting down to a science I see you everywhere

[@giulianotorres4556]

Which half of the scientist that work in the area say doesn't even exist (i mean sarcoplasmic growth), and the only reason someone came out with this theory was they couldn't explain why some people was stronger with actually less muscle (they didn't know about the neurological adaptations and motor unit recruitment).

[@santaclaus3737]

glad to see you again

[@madmike987655]

The is actually one of the better explanations I've heard regarding muscle fibres. Very well put, kept simple for ease of understanding and gets the main points across.

[@xDDufiosy]

It’s simplified to the point of uselessness. If you googled muscle you would get everything here. If you enjoy his accent then it’s a better way to get the wikipedia page of muscle fibers but otherwise it’s completely redundant.

Awesome video coach, I started adding time under tension and higher reps like you recommend to train if you wanna gain muscle and the gains have been insane!! Also I think at some point the fitness community just correlated size with strength and no other factor which you proved wrong and said strength doesn't necessarily mean you gained muscle ..

Literally got back into weights today after almost 3 years of last being in a gym. Back then I was 16, 86kg, 170cm tall, now I'm 19, 74kg and 179cm tall. Day and night difference between what I looked like back then and what I look like now. Lost most of my gains but like you have mentioned in the video, muscle memory should soon kick in. Forgot how great if feels to be sore afterwards. So glad I found your channel, Coach Greg. Now I'm training harder than last time and it feels good to be back in the sport after so long.

[@wilmarcchillmaz2866]

Ah man I was in the same situation Listen to me: give your body 3 weeks. The results are insane. Please don't stop 3 weeks and then you ll have motivation for the rest of the year. Eat well and drink enough water before workout. Water is the key factor. I'm here to see ur journey man

[@jjvandermerwe4894]

@@wilmarcchillmaz2866 thanks so much for the tip! To be honest, I am pretty motivated. I've been jumping rope for just over a year now and have worked up to 1 hour sessions burning about 800 cal per hour, but I wanted to start building some muscle again, so instead of doing 1 hour jump rope, I'll do 30 mins instead after my weight training session. I'm using the WaterMinder app to track my water, and it's great. Currently sticking by 2L per day, but if you have any recommendations, I'm more than willing to learn mate.

[@wilmarcchillmaz2866]

@@jjvandermerwe4894 Your body needs time to adapt to lifting weights again. 30 minutes of cardio after workout it's just a lot, especially that it's your time to build muscle, to create shape. I would go with 20 minutes of cardio instead. It's not your need to burn calories anymore, this means energy. Have a fixed workout, know what you have to do when you get in there instead of just choosing randomly. Usually 3 or 4 sets, with a rep range of 7-12 per exercise should do it Don't spend more than 90 minutes in the gym, after that you will begin to burn muscle as your body is out of energy. You can rest up to 2 minutes between sets, especially if it's heavy, don't listen to those telling 30 seconds max. Small tip: eat one big banana before and after workout. It gives energy and helps with recovery GIVE YOUR BODY TIME Enjoy the journey Unfollow toxic BS on your social media, or even meme pages if they are a lot, it's just a waste of time
