Your videos are almost always on point, I was getting anxious about hitting a plateu after just 6 months of lifting but the diet part made me realize that I shouldn't expect progressive overload on a cut lmao

bro hell nah this guy has cameras in my room or some shit, legit same day bro solved my problem

[@TitoDespacito]

Great advice bro thanks. A few weeks ago, I was stuck on the same weight/reps for several exercises but I switched up variations and went from 5-8 to 8-12 and recently I’ve been breaking through plateaus. Highly recommend trying the stuff in this video out, I can confirm it works!

[@clee89]

Make a video about returning to training after an injury

[@davidalba6337]

Amazing! Personally I've been lifting for 1 year and I'm not stuck, but I can see how progress becomes slower with time. I'd love a video about it.

[@bayzul7405]

Regarding diet, i never knew as progressive. Think people forget "cutting" in respect weight loss. Soft abs were present at a pump prior, now subtle 4 pack at rest just peeking mirror. Thats progress, it doesnt have be more weight per 1-2 months

[@AvatarofHermes]

bro this is literal perfect timing i've been stuck for a few weeks already thank you so much for uploading this man:D

where’s the video about soreness and cramps

[@SteveJacobs94089]

Thanks for the advice, Winny! I noticed that you are making videos on more specific topics in lifting (e.g. thumbless grip, vacations, etc.) Can you make a video on how to achieve a deep squat? I have problems with butt-wink.

[@TitoDespacito]

This would be amazing yes please Winny

[@augervongaribaldi]

So I’m a girl that started gym and changing to less crap and more protein a year ago. Never been much of an eater, hard to eat a lot without my gallbladder. Lost 63 pounds. Just overall good form now. And even though I feel stronger I found my lift weight harder to maintain once I lost around 40. It’s been discouraging especially since I found out I can sneak more calories with goat milk and feel my overall performance rising again. I know about weight classes but I never thought how it can alter from progress in the reverse. Thank you for this vid!

[@sepetru]

when i watch you i feel motivated for tommorow training thanks

[@dravidizatun6686]

Hello. Thanks to this KZbin channel's awesome and simple tips, they have been beneficial to me. I have been training for about a year, but I encountered a problem that has confused me. This has led to me struggling with myself, particularly regarding my gym progress. During this journey, my strength has improved and I have noticed some positive changes in my physique. My body has significantly transformed, but I haven't gained much weight. When I started going to the gym, I weighed 57 KGs and my biceps were completely flat. My strength started with, for example, biceps dumbbell curls with 2kg dumbbells. Nowadays, I'm using 10kg dumbbells for that exercise, my body has gained some muscles, and I have shaped up, but my weight still lingers around 57KGs. Can you please help me understand this?

[@coppelxia]

I’m in a health/fitness/wellness rut atm I really needed this. I want my body to be healthy and strong enough to carry and eventually give birth to my future child

Another wonderful Winny video :D I have gained 10 pounds of muscle in 2 months since watching your videos!

[@emate8422]

Im gonna recommend deload, im doing every 3 months' deload for a week or two. I don't train at all, or 30% of normal volume. A lot of times i come back to the gym and my reasuts are the same or sometimes i can do a rep or two more then before the dealod. And it's good to regenerate your joints.

[@coxless_persian4115]

can you make a video about common injuries among beginners? i've recently been having some problem in my left shoulder doing reverse fly and probably am gonna change my rear delt exercise but still don't know what the problem is

[@2dotdotz]

I remember I took a week off the gym because I was sick and instead of having gotten weaker like I had expected to, I blaster through all my exercises with heavier weights and higher reps

[@0ptimusPawn]

Hi trainer! First of all thanks so much for the basic training regimen you've given me! I had been following some shitty ChatGPT-generated gym plan and was not progressing at all. I've been following your 4-day split for about a month now (and taking creatine and protein shakes) and I'm already noticing some nice differences in terms of how much I can lift and how different I look. So thank you for that! But, I feel like I'm already a little stuck. I cannot seem to bench press more than 15 kilos (about 30lbs). I've been trying to pack my shoulders correctly, but I feel like my posture just slides down after only a few reps, and the whole "tense shoulders, arched back" is very uncomfortable in general, especially with more weight. It feels like I'm pushing the bar much more with my arms than my chest, and as a result my arms have gotten bigger while my chest is still small. Do you have any advice for me? It's hard to me to ask for advice inside my gym because I'm currently living abroad in a country where I don't speak the language very well. If you're still reading I have 2 bonus questions. 1: is there a decent alternative to deadlifting? or should I just really double down and get the technique down? Deadlifting scares me a little; I probably went overboard a little on the weight and hurt my back quite a bit. Since then, I've felt very uncomfortable doing deadlifts. and 2: Is there any major downsides to using the Smith's machine for squats and incline bench presses? Squats without the S.M. kinda scare me in the same way as deadlifting does, and my gym simply has no bench that can incline except underneath the S.M. So I was wondering if it's okay to use it instead of a "normal" bench.. thing. Sorry for the wall of text. I really love that your content is simple and easy to follow for a complete beginner like me, so thank you a ton for that and I'm looking forward to the next video! Much love!

[@miming3679]

I reacted the same thing on weighted pull ups. I was really sad being stuck with the same plates for a long time till I realized I was doing progressive overload by bulking 😭

[@goldfishwithamoustache8566]

Hey trainer winny, would u suggest a solid diet plan for weight loss and muscle building? PS:Big fan of urs!!❤

[@hoovy2319]

I started a diet and exercise routine about a month or so ago and have been following your advice as best as I can. I’ve been doing my exercises every day, been eating less and have swapped my diet over to a more Protein based diet, I’ve stopped drinking soda except for Diet Coke and I’ve been trying to get as good of a nights sleep as I can. But even after doing all that, I’ve put on weight instead of lost weight. What am I doing wrong?

[@apathy2454]

The idea of having to make my workouts easier kind of doesn’t sit right with me but if it makes gains I’m down

[@propizza6454]

Thanks! It was really helpful

[@lucasrumd]

Thank you so much winny. I was starting to get a little frustrated because for the last 2 months I couldnt increase much any lifts. What was I thinking? In these two months I've been in a deficit and lost 11kg.

[@SkidzTheSlayer]

Thnx I'm gonna try doing bicep curls for 5 instead of 10 20kg I might step up to 25kg or just 22.5kg

[@edgemogger69]

does the variation tip mean should i only use cable lateral raises (which is what ive been doing) or should i add in dumbbell lateral raises too?

[@koh123453]

So what if you go to the Gym and you’re doing chest and back, let’s say, and your sets for each different exercise is a warm up set and then an apocalyptic set until absolute failure. My definition of absolute failure means that you can’t even begin to start another rep. After getting to that point, then pushing your body to continue and do another rep until the failure compounds. Like you get to a point where you can’t even start to start the rep. Your willpower pushing still, the body not responding. I’d call it perfect failure. Would that be a legitimate exercise for that muscle group before switching to the next one?

I have a problem. I live with my family and they usually buy unhealthy foods like Oreos or fast food. I try to resist but I fail. What should I do? I do buy my own food.

[@ibrahimalkan7508]

Hi brother, You can also do very good bodybuilding with moms food. Just work hard, You will see your progress as the weights increase.

[@jonnyfinch556]

I've found limited success with taxing the reward, in your example an oreo is a press up, you set the bar on the ground and you'll always clear it with ease. After a week/two/a month however long it takes you to build the habit of being on your face for a cookie, 5 per is far more reasonable and realistic an expectation of self.

[@Handleyourbizness]

I eat my mothers food to, hard to track when you don't really know what's going into it, a trick I've started to utilise is save 1000 cals for dinner, eat a bit less throughout the day and it balances out.

I dont understand, I go to gym already 1.5 years and I have relatively faster progress on so many muscle parts of my body but my biceps. For example I started with 20kg of bench press but now I do 40 which is 2 times more than my first condition. But when it comes to the biceps, I started with 5kg and now around 8-9kg

[@nisarkhan8707]

Biceps is hard to grow

[@bungaIowbill]

9 kg is also around 2 times more than 5 kg. you're progressing man

I was stuck on biceps for a long time, wanna know what I did? I worked my forearms (the lower part) and now I can do 40lbs instead of being stuck at 30

Do you know the definition of insanity? Its when you do the same thing over and over and expect a different result.

[@bendabest9182]

Can creatine help if i am having trouble gaining weight?

[@CorruptedDogg]

That's not what creatine is for, you need more calories. If you can't get enough through your regular diet, use mass gainer

[@1x5x7]

​@@CorruptedDoggBut only use Mass Gainer as a last resort. Try to eat calorie-dense food and cook with vegetable oils

[@Handleyourbizness]

You will gain weight with creatine but it's only water weight.

[@milanojudo]

It's going to be a one time gain of like 2-4kg of water weight. You'll still have to be in a caloric surplus if you want to keep gaining weight. I think there may be evidence that creatine improves appetite, but I'm not 100% sure. You'll have to research that subject yourself.

[@kofokss]

Hi papa!

[@bsscprn]

Why am i not feeling muscle pain after a really hard workout? On my first day my arms felt like they were gona fall off and now i feel no pain after

[@SibzProductions]

That’s called Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS). It can occur when you first start working out, when you try new exercises, or when you push yourself much harder than usual. It is not meant to stick around. Soreness can be measured after the fact as weakness or a kind of rubbery feeling in the target muscle, but without the pain. Hope this helps :)
