As someone who is interested in both hypertrophy training and long-distance running, this was very useful. I'll be taking the seasonal approch.

Fun drinking game: take a shot every time James flexes his biceps in this video

[@AngryOscillator]

💪 Jacked 💪

[@marlon1171]

Biceps???

[@rupeshchoudhury9440]

Dr. James thank you for the excellent content you put out. I can attest to the quality interferences as I'm currently training the Olympic lifts almost everyday and too much hypertrophy training seems to slow me down. Also, I'm currently reading Integrated Periodization and love the approach. Thanks again.

Nice Dr. Mike impersonation

[@manbiteslife3110]

@Korona Pirus What a sad comment

[@AA-bg5lo]

Who came first Dr Israetel or Dr James? I cant tell if this is a parity or not. Their hand gestures, tone, pitch, and talking rhythm are exactly the same. Always good content but couldn't get past the twinning :)

[@98Destructo]

Really good information. I was really stuck with the exact problems of running and training legs. These tips will surely help a lot. Thank you!

[@garrettturbett593]

Excellent point at the end regarding sports performance and hypertrophy. I retired from elite level triathlon racing in 2017 and to be competitive and maximise my particular strengths (running) it was necessary to be light (64kg’s at 175cm/141lbs at 5’9”). Any addition weight at that level and I’d notice it. Now that I’m no longer racing I’ve been lifting a lot more and my weight is 75kg/165lbs (I’ve not grown any taller!) and holding my old race pace for any distance is very tough going!

When it comes to deloads, I like to go by RHR. With my professional athletes, I have them measure their RHR every morning. If it goes up by 5%, it's a deload day where we'll decrease thre volume by 50%. If it goes up by 10%, it's a rest day. It's a little bit different when I train my IFBB pros though.

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

What pro athletes do you train?

[@TeamYouphoric]

@@daytonasayswhat9333 mostly fighter's. A lot of boxers and mma fighter's, but I've coached professional athletes in over a dozen different sports.

[@brandongreen5884]

What about the "tapping test"?

[@fritzyberger]

Thank you for this video. It was exactly what I was trying to say to a guy at work who's kid is in American Football and guy was trying to tell me he was going to train his kid and he would lose 40lb of fat and gain 40lb in the off-season of highschool football. I told him the fat alone might be doable but even in a hypertrophy only program good luck gaining more than 2 pounds a month. He was trying to argue that sport muscles were different. Either way clearly he has a bit of scope creep and might be able to do a body recomp to stay lose 15 of fat and gain 10 in muscle. Ideally I told him he should in the office season work on power to weight ratio and focus on pure strength and fat loss.

[@illicod5247]

Very nice and comprehensive video, full of knowledge !

[@pedromathias5108]

Meu sonho é ter esse videos legendados em português

[@DavidSmith-cg7qk]

Great video. Loved it.

[@Jais271]

This is what I need. You da man

[@ajithsidhu7183]

Pls do one on bfr pls

[@chronometa]

Dang. Y'all made him get a haircut? 😉

[@nitrostarz531]

Ok but I’m trying to find a good balance for me, I’m highschool American football player, so I need to have a lot of power, but ofc as a teen I want to look good, so I ask so want to do hypertrophy workouts too, I just don’t know how to do it though

[@TiagoSantos-oo6ov]

Can I work on my power with exercises like reverse lunges and RDLs done with speed on the concentric?

[@SuprEmpth]

Why? You’re trying to do those explosively? Just curious

[@AngryOscillator]

Probably but again... why? Whats wrong with sprints and box jumps and heavy KB swings?

[@legendrysuperman]

is it a good idea to take all our body parts to mrv on a mesocycle or should we keep some at mv and alternate between them...???

[@iburnspeople]

If you take all muscles to mrv then you will excede your systemic mrv. Take higher priority muscles to mrv and leave the rest at mv or mev

[@legendrysuperman]

@@iburnspeople thank you...

[@tychobrahe6379]

@@legendrysuperman From what I remember from videos with Dr. Isratel, you should get to your MRV very seldom

[@MeleDrummer]

yes, you can take everything to mrv if you want to grow your whole body

[@SuprEmpth]

Don’t listen to that last comment. Yes you can take all your body parts to MRV, but you asked if it’s a good idea. Probably not. If you really do a full body MRV your body will probably be very exhausted after awhile or you may not recover fully to go the intensity you need For a true MRV cycle. Mike has answered that in multiple videos.

[@1Nate987]

What would maintenance volume for endurance training look like?

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

Same as maintenance for anything else.

[@zsahe21]

!!!!!!

[@Hoop639]

Let’s say for basketball, your legs do most of the work and your upper body plays a way less of a role. Let’s say I keep the rpe low and stick with less fatiguing exercises,reps ranges etc for upper body with the goal of hypertrophy/strength while running sport meso’s for lower body. If i don’t let it mess up my systemic volume too much is it still a big detriment?

[@MeleDrummer]

it is a detriment because you are fatiguing yourself, but you could make it work, it depends on your goals and priorities

[@AngryOscillator]

the lower the rpe and the lower the systemic fatigue then the smaller the detriment. None is ideal, anything moving away from that takes away from the peak of the other. The actual muscles are likely to be fine (maybe your back could complain?) but the body as a whole will feel it. Unless you are Ross Edgley, then just be Ross Edgley, I dunno, go for a jog with a train or something 🤷‍♂️

[@grumpycroissant8712]

Adopt me James lol
