How to Combine Lifting with Other Sports

[@Error-jt7lx]

I do sport 5 times a week and lift weights 4 times, with some on the same days naturally and I found to get some injuries and weak joints at the start but now after about 5 months of that same program I no longer have any pains and everything works perfectly TLDR: stick with it and eventually everything will run smoothly and in the long run it’s very hard to do too much work

[@robertrichardson1060]

I do a 3 day split. Swim on my 3 intermittent days, and total rest for 1 day. Works for me. Great video, as always. Cheers

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Nice, sounds like a solid routine 👍

[@3atmey]

at 9:15 is exactly how my weekly program looks like ...full body workout 3 times per week and cardio 3 times per week also, this routine is working very well for me right now.

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Nice! Glad that it is working well for you 👍

[@omarimiller8146]

How old are you? And do you alternate days?

[@martijnrotteveel7334]

i do bouldering and lead climbing 3 times per week with 2/3 hours sessions, besides that I do running and mobility work. i now do a push pull leg split with only 6 sets per sessions, but still finding my way.

[@CsoccerD]

Recently came across your page and just wanted to say I am loving the videos. Keep it up!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Cheers, glad to hear it 👍

At 43, I do BJJ 3x per week and judo once per week. I run a few times per week and only resistance train 2x per week. That's all I can handle. I find the recovery between resistance sessions is tricky while training BJJ (with hard rolls). One way I manage this is I let the weights plateau for a bit longer before progressing - basically throttle the progressive overload a bit.

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

nice. yes, it is difficult to maximise your rate of development of multiple training qualities at the same time 👍

[@Pidrew666]

Great video! Your section on metabolite techinques seems to be exactly what I needed coming into this. I climb three times a week but am still seem cursed with skinny biceps lmao. I noticed that adding bicep curls into my lifting days kinda messed with my elbows, so I'll drop the weight on them but add some reps and see if things improve. Thanks!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Yes, this is definitely a great way to add volume with less elbow stress 💪

[@georgesarreas5509]

Great video!! Needed to see how I can chase both hypertrophy and sport goals. Guess I'll just do a U/L/U/L/U split and in the days between I will train just biceps and side/rear delts. Hypertrophy and bodybuilding combined. Awesooooome

[@justjoe4387]

Exactly the video I was looking for thanks a lot

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

no problem

[@WardenCommander.]

Thank you for the clarification on the first minute of the video. Based on the tittle, I thought (/hoped) I was about to watch a video on what you said you WOULDN'T be discussing. Excellent video, nonetheless!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Yes, otherwise the video would have been completely different. There are plenty of videos on S&C for sports performance in the archives of this channel if you are interested 👍

[@WardenCommander.]

@@FlowHighPerformance1 Already watched most of them, as I've been one of your subscribers, for quite some time now. Thank you for all your work, friend! Keep educating!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

No problem, glad you enjoy the content 👍

[@scottyg5403]

Another excellent video! Thank you!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Cheers, no problem 👍

[@pangopod2969]

Thx. This was needed

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

No problem 👍

[@Shaat]

How about combing sports trading with resistance training TO ENHANCE sport performance ? Not recommended or better done through periodic action blocks ?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

This is a separate topic in itself. This would be best achieved by incorporating speed, power, strength, and endurance training, not just hypertrophy training. The training plan would also need to be periodized throughout the year to peak at a specific time. There are plenty of videos on how to do this in the archives on this channel 👍

[@joecowan3719]

Nice breakdown on how to persue both goals concurrently. Off-season: do you advise to take it easy for a few weeks to recover and then increase the volume to grow before the season begins again?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Yes, I recommend giving yourself 1-2 weeks very easy before ramping the volume up 💪

[@ammarmalak4306]

Pleaseeee do a video on how to incorporate strength training, olympic weight lifting, gymnastics, and conditioning for Crossfit!! Unbelievably complicating... P.S: Thanks for the content!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

This is something I would like to learn more about myself before making a video on it 👍

[@jaykiefonseca]

I play basketball but because of some muscle imbalance got knee pain and I stopped playing for a while. I now want to get back in shape in order to play again. I was thinking about a combination of compound movements from powerlifting and olympic lifting with accessory movements and plyometrics on off days. Would this be a good combination or too much?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

This would work, just make sure to take is slow and steady when getting back into training 👍

[@PANTHER777O]

Can you make a video about combining martial arts like MMA and weight lifting?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

It would follow the same general principles 👍

[@vadikberserk1373]

What whould you recommend to do for basketball? For speed and explosiveness? And how much reps/sets recovery time?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

this video should help with basketball S&C training kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2SQiqtsaLqLrpo

[@chackoantony6640]

Can we combine soccer and gym ? Can I still build muscle efficiently,I am 6ft 1 and slightly underweight.

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

yes, definitely 👍

[@leroyadlam12]

Can you make a separate video on training intensity and it’s influence on hypertrophy

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Definitely. I have made a few videos on this topic already, but I will definitely be making some more in the future 👍

[@leroyadlam12]

@@FlowHighPerformance1 what is actual definition of intensity in terms of hypertrophy ?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

I would define it as proximity to failure

[@CarlUsana-o3l]

Hmm . . I lift for 3 days total body compound movements, alternate 3 days of cardio such as bodyweight intervals, and sports such as badminton and tennis 😎✊ Ya can't really lift that heavy, or there's too much CNS fatigue and soreness the body can't recover in time even with active rest 🤣😅

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Nice, makes sense to me 👍

[@lollo_pap]

How do I know that you're qualified to teach such topics?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

You don't 🤷

[@lollo_pap]

@@FlowHighPerformance1 :/

[@martlu95]

What a stupid comment. I didn't know you needed a qualification to make a KZbin video @flowhighperformance keep making these brilliant, informative videos 😂😂

[@lollo_pap]

@@martlu95 I don't mean that you have to have a qualification, I mean that you have to know these things well and know what impact those those things have on training. Because if they have a really minor effect, it's not even worth the effort to study and implement those things. Plus it's of paramount importance that you at leat train as an advanced lifter

[@martlu95]

@@lollo_pap absolutely, that makes sense 😅

First comment

[@TimBorg]

you sound exactly the same as that Car Detailing channel from Melbourne

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

I guess us Melbournians have a similar accent and talking style 👍
