How to Train for Strength vs Hypertrophy

[@miketsak2104]

I have seen the last year hundreds videos on sports performance, physiology, strength and hypertrophy training . I cannot find anyone with such an organized presentations and analysis, in training and sports performance. I feel like I am attending a sports science course in a University. Thanks so so much for all your videos. I feel so glad that sports scientists like you exist on KZbin!!!!! ⚡💪

Cheers, glad to hear it! 👍

Notes for strength: Train what you want to be able to do (specificity) Volume= Sets×reps×loads More volume Heavier loads, lower reps for more efficiency Complex skills need more frequency Technique: lift however you can lift more

thank you so much for the video. there is such a need is it possible to see everything said in the video in writing form.

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

You can use subtitles

have a good day to whoever reads this btw great video

Cheers 👍

Would transitioning from hypertrophy training to strength training induce a considerable loss of muscle mass? Keep up the good work !

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

No, I don't think so. Strength training will still provide a hypertrophic stimulus, just not as effective as hypertrophy training 💪

[@sereroserera367]

@@FlowHighPerformance1 thank you!!

[@leroyadlam12]

Can you breakdown why powerlifters and strongman have huge traps and why the traps activate in those movements and which part of the trap is activating and the reason

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

They probably get lots of indirect training from other movements. Especially strongmen who regularly need to carry heavy implements 👍

[@leroyadlam12]

@@FlowHighPerformance1 why does the upper trap engage during carries and rack pulls and excersises of that sort

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

To prevent the shoulder from dropping 👍

Thanks a lot bro Love you bro ❤❤

no problem 👍

[@kreat_ivan]

Is there any benefit form sequencing hypertrophy and strenght training for maximising hypertrophy? For example doing couple of mesos of hypertrophy then a meso of strenght training. Great video by the way!

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

I would really see a benefit for hypertrophy, but it would probably be a good strategy for strength training 👍

[@PeterParker-123]

Definitely not sustainable in the long term. The high volume that you need for hypertrophy would crash with the low volume and high intensity you need for strength.

[@montelih]

correct me if im wrong but more muscle means more room for neural efficiency and strength?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Correct. More muscle means more tissue to produce force 👍

[@imperwow]

I do full body workouts 3 days a week. I have a pull up bar at work. For hypertrophy goals, is it profitable to do a few sets now and then as I pass it by - to boost volume, or will it hinder my results?

[@sheend]

Just save your energy for when you have time to do sets, in my experience

[@imperwow]

@@sheend that's the thing. On my training I do 4 sets- 8,6,5,4 reps. Can't progress more. Wondering if doing for example few additional weekly sets of ~4 reps in my case would be profitable.

[@andikerschner7557]

@@imperwow so what you are describing is not really a problem with hypertrophy but stagnating strength at a certain exercise. In this case, more sets per week with higher quality (long rest, for example during work as you described) will help maximize neural efficiency, but maybe not hypertrophy in the short term. A useful approach could be to do pull ups nearly every day (for example 5 days a week, 2 days with 4 sets with 1-2 minutes rest with max effort and a rest day afterwards, and 3 days with single sets of ~6 reps, as often as you have time (while not overdoing it). So basically what you are doing then, is increasing your "pull up strength" and afterwards you can go back to your complete hypertrophy routine and hopefully 4 sets of 10 reps (with less decline than before, so you can get more time under tension in your set 3 and 4, which will finally help your hypertrophy gains). Ps: to prevent that I get hit with the magical, overused "but you need 48 hours rest" - it's depending on the stressor, and in this case, the muscle doesn't need to recover as much as after a complete training routine.

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

It will definitely contribute to overall training volume. But I would rather save your time and energy to train in a dedicated workout time (as mentioned above)

[@Dumbbell-DumbbellTraining]

If you are doing weight training and your muscles are not growing as much as you are trying, there may be a letter in your breathing method.

[@kamuflaselama9311]

Hi Peter. If I do a same exercise twice a week, is there a benefit to use a different rep range or it doesn't matter as long as the sets are taken to near failure?

[@FlowHighPerformance1]

Doesn't really matter, but it may be a good idea to use a different rep range for variation 👍
