Huge Triceps - Getting Yoked - Losing Gains (Q&A)

[@michaelhayes8007]

Alex one thing I’ve noticed about your training, is that you have MASTERED the art of knowing when you will hit failure and staying 1 rep away from it. Your grinders are crazy

[@AlexLeonidas]

Thank you Michael and I'm happy you mentioned this!! That's correct, I can gauge it with about 90-95% accuracy. I would have to credit the Max Effort method for that, I know my limits and have developed the ability to strain. This process took yearsssss though.

Hey Alex can you do a full week training vlog? The entire training session (mostly) uncut, everything included from entering your home gym to warmups, stretching, setting up gear and taking breaks, basically the complete full picture. I think it could give great perspective on the true raw reality of things and gives a super clear & complete overview that's relatively rare to see on KZbin in its entirety (e.g training duration timewise). I'd be interested personally (also considering how your training methods & exercises have evolved over the years). (Alternatively you could also do the same idea as above but with cuts in between while making mentions of the time on the clock so as to still get a clear impression of time duration (although i do still see value in completely uncut and i think it would be unique)) You could just set up a camera somewhere w complete gym overview (or multiple if youre feeling ambitious, for different angles) and let it roll for however long your complete trainings take. Or for all i know you could even stream it and read chat during set breaks e.g. (if it won't ideally impede your normal training regiment focus time & exercise selection)

Elbow popping during triceps exercises : • Bench press : during eccentric, if I go further than 90 degree angle, there is popping • Triceps rope pushdown : during eccentric, if I go up further than 90 degree, there is popping • Dips : when I go down, if I go below 90 degree angle, there is popping There is pain after the workout but not during.

Follow up to the question about good mornings re leg day/back day. Would it be good to do high or even ATK rack pulls instead of deadlifts or good mornings along with rows and weighted pull ups? Then do the conventional deadlifts etc on leg day?

[@AlexLeonidas]

Good question. Yes, that would make sense from a blending standpoint. Though I'd still say conventional on the leg day isn't as good as an RDL/good morning. Especially since you already got the overloading effect from rack pulls earlier.

[@Vitaly3548]

29:00 in regards to moderately weighted unilateral work, I believe it has a place for field athletes and sports that require fast footwork. It is definitely harder than a belt squat and bc of coordination limitations, may not put on the same amount of muscle. However I believe it will make u much more athletic and that is higher on my priorities than absolute muscle mass.

Hi Alex, as far as minimalist neck training goes, have you seen Matthew Zlat's method? He literally just places his chin over the bar when doing weighted vertical pulls, and allows his neck flexors to take some of his weight. Wanted to hear your thoughts on this, especially since you do a bunch of weighted calisthenics already. Thanks for all the Q&A wisdom

[@Arms.Enthusiast]

On the topic of unilateral work, I find it to be a useful developmental tool for training stability in the first place, as well as reaping hypertrophy benefits with less external load, it also has a tendency to balance the leg more by hitting the adductors and abductors, which is a great thing IMO.

[@owenchen6876]

Hi Alex, in your past videos you have recommended rotating variations when progress stalls. In general, when using double progression how many workouts without progress would you go before switching out the movement. I feel like rotating the exercise as soon as you do not progress (eg. Week 1 8-8-7 Week 2 Still 8-8-7 Week 3 Switch Exercise) does not factor in possibilities such as lack of sleep, form misgrooves, slower gains as an intermediate or advanced lifter and other external factors. Hope this question makes sense and I appreciate your content.

Bulgarian split squats with the front leg on a plate has helped a lot for my leverages, long legs short torso. Going past parallel is an issue. It's all posterior chain and it's hard to sit in the hips. Tried using the leg press and the hack squat machine and it always felt off (my gym's machine are not the best and there's only one of each). While doing the split squat, I noticed a major imbalance in terms of spinal erector strenth. It's much better now. Perhaps I'll try squatting again one day... maybe front squats. For now split squats and leg extensions have been taking care of the quads.

Alex! When the literature suggest 10-20 sets a week per bodypart might be optimal for hypertrophy, how specific is this? For example: 10-20 sets for each anterior-, lateral- and rear delts OR 10-20 sets for 'delts'? 10-20 sets for rhomboids, traps, teres, etc. and lats OR 10-20 sets for 'back'? Also, do I count my flat and incline pressing towards front delts too? and my upperback biased pull-ups towards lats? I know there are multiple ways of counting volume, I did actually watch dr. Mike's video on this topic. My question however remains: How do I have to count if I want to be in that 'optimal' 10-20 range?

[@loovlehcuppatea2830]

23:00 i was wondering if I could get Ur opinion on a program I made with this whole thing in mind. It's basically push, pull with posterior chain, quads and arms, push, pull, legs and arms. Arms include biceps, forearms and only the longhead of the tricep. First push day is a calisthenics focus push session with chest, medial lateral heads of triceps. So 4 sets slow pushups, 3 sets close grip, dumbell flies (not sure if I need them), one of those pushups that resemble the JM press and some lu raises and calves. I thought of doing this type of session for less fatigue for the deads. Then the following day is 2 sets of deadlifts, preferably heavy tho I realised I've gone way too light and even got past 15 reps on the weights available, then 3 sets of frog stance rdls, then some wide grip pull-ups, pullovers, a mix between a drag curl and a Yates row. Calves and neck are sprinkled here and there in supersets as well as ham curls. Legs the day after is just sissy squats with hammer curls and ez bar curls, overhead extensions and forearm stuff The next push session has weights, dumbell press, seated dumbell ohp, incline press, ez bar JM press with lu raises and calves. The next pull has chins, chest supported rows, upright rows and another variation of pullovers with calves and nek. This doesn't have posterior chain cos of the next day The legs session I do after that has 3 sets bulg squats, only 2 sets Romanian deads and 2 sets of a variation of the box squat natural hypertrophy showed in his glute exercises but I just grab the bar underneath me. I superset it all with front dumbell curls, curls behind the back on the bench and dumbell overhead extensions with forearm stuff. Nordic curls are also done. What do u think about this type of programming to fit the deadlifts in?

[@joshwilliams6517]

THE NAME CHANGE YES IT IS TIME

[@AlexLeonidas]

Damn right Josh!! Feels good to be me 💯

[@MattyNatty123-d5q]

I think bulgarian splits squats/lunges have its place from the stimulus fatigue ratio perspective. Sure you can do some volume on regular squats and thats were most of the gains come from but these smaller movements can help to add extra volume without accumulating too much fatigue because theres only so much volume on squats you can do before they bury you. Sure there are also belt squats which are also great with amazing stimulus/fatigue ratio but a lot of people dont have access to them (since a lot of gyms dont have equipment for those) and setting them up on boxes can be pain in the ass and sometimes even dangerous. Hack squats/leg press are also good options but those already use signifitantly more weight than lunges/split squats.

Hey Alex, this one doesn't have to go into the next video. Might not benefit a lot of people but Can you recommend a minimum length of rope for rope pull based workouts? I want to buy one but don't have a lot of disposable income (teenager in school and all). I don't wanna buy one too short and have it be a waste of money, but I also don't want to overspend on one longer than I'll ever need to use. I plan on using it for both strength and GPP like work with somewhat longer set durations if that helps. Also, are thicker ropes (1" - 2" diameter) worth the money over just a thinner one (like maybe jump rope level thick) with gloves? I'd really like to know what I could get away with before make the investment. Especially in my country.

[@tawfiqalashkar3065]

Hey alex I'm trying to increase my volume but i don't have time for doing more than 3 sets per exercise I'm doing cluster sets for some isolation exercises & higher reps do you think that is an effective way to increase volume for the goal of building muscle thank you for answering my questions

[@samuelbalavoine5031]

Lil' copy and paste from the video about back rows : Hey Alex, will you do a video on how to apply a maximalist approach ? On your video about "minimalist training will fail you" you go on about how making compromises will give you lesser results. I've been thinking about it a lot. I mean, I want results so let's just do as much volume as I can with a very high intensity for every muscle, right ? And then give them the rest they need , and do it again. For example, I can do 5 sets of lateral raises before being toast, but I have no problem doing the same thing the next day. So let's just do that evey day, right ? Problem is this logic is not applicable for the whole body, because there's just too much muscle you need to take care of, and doing 20 exercises for 5 sets each everyday is just a straight up bad idea. So I've been trying to make it work in my mind but I just can't get it right. Because I guess there will compromises, there's just no going around it. I just can't think of how to make the maximalist approach work.

Alex, How would you address a weakness at the start of a pull-up? I always fail in the fully stretched position. Like I can’t even begin the pull up at the end of my set. Whereas most people seem to fail closer to the top of the movement. Also, I’d love a new novice program. Love your work, thanks brother

[@RDS_Armwrestling]

Do multiple sets of half-rep pullups to failure in the bottom 50% of the ROM. This should surely improve specific strength in that area. Then if you're worried about missing out the top portion of the lift, hit a set in the top 50% of the ROM. Similarly, you could do the same thing on a lat pulldown, and/or a straight arm pullover.

[@jornsongardr5298]

@@RDS_Armwrestling Thank you for your advice! It’s so logical. I think I’ve been conditioned against partials. I will implement that from now and see how I go

[@RDS_Armwrestling]

@Jornson Gardr a lot of the bodybuilding crowd are all for full ROM this/max ROM that, and I agree that it's important, but addressing weaknesses or other issues is also very important, and partials in the stretched position have been shown to be as effective (or even more effective) than full ROM exercise. Crazy eh?? It is also worth knowing that muscles are naturally weaker in their extremes of range of motion, so fully stretched and fully contracted, which is why it can sometimes feel impossible to start another rep of pullups after fully extending at the bottom.

If I do 3sets x 5 with 3min rest between sets ill have in total 15reps performed and the last reps wont be as clean cos of the higher intensity. Now if I lets say do half of the reps with higher sets x lower reps for ex: 10sets x 2reps with 1min rest ( EMOM) I will have performed 20reps in 10min with cleaner form.
