I Was WRONG About Training Volume (the science of adding sets for hypertrophy)

[@d3rpn1nj47]

this is the type of research that leaves more questions than answers, haha. Great work on the video gonna read the resensitization paper

[@wesrobinson7506]

Great video! Would love to see a video on minimal effective dose and programming for hypertrophy in intermediate lifter! For those of us who want to optimize our training given constraints but are short on time

[@teavana444]

I really like this idea and think it should be looked at by more coaches with enough lifters to get the data to play around with. I bet you can get a couple % consistently if you look into it. One thing I have done recently is putting the hardest week in my (non-peaking) block as the second week (in a four to six week block). I noticed that the week after a deload was always one of those good weeks at least a day or two, and wanted to see if I could take advantage of it. It makes more sense when you look at a program as multiple blocks and the first block is just setting up the rest of the blocks.

Excellent presentation. Yall just did this with my program and the gains started flowing again!

Mike Israetel from Reinassance Periodization was big on this.

[@wesrobinson7506]

Ha ha was thinking the same thing

[@marianoitaliano805]

Bro where is your analysis about higher volume and more RiR vs lower volume with all to failure ?

[@newtoss]

So what is the best for strength and hypertrophy how much volume per muscle per weeek is the average not too low and not too high?

[@MarcDrobny]

Curious your thoughts about RIR ranges to use in the added volumes

[@scottw7098]

Practical advice 👌

[@AnderWestgaard]

Great video, algorithm

[@blackgoatmetal]

Ok, you advice to add sets, that's clear. But when to add weight then? Because people can endlessly add sets without progressing weight, but will this be effective? When they add weight, the sets number will definitely drop because of intensity. I would suggest to define a set limit eg., +6 sets above average per week, and don't add more in case you perform quality reps. Instead, add weight, reduce sets and try again to aim for higher number of sets with new weight.

[@davidthomas9960]

Volume is more important than weight for hypertrophy

[@blackgoatmetal]

@davidthomas9960 and for how long will you continue to grow using the same weight but adding more sets?

[@ΓεώργιοςΓαλανάκης-ν5ω]

Some muscles are recovering faster than others. We can't make general summaries

[@timk8258]

Lol do you guys and Milo have the same video editor? Really don’t need all the distracting sound effects.

[@jimmykruzer]

Can someone smarter than me please summerize this for me. And please give like an example lol

[@sebastianhansendiaz6106]

Nononono you’re completely ignoring intensity they are training in a 10 minute cycle far fucking away from failure. If train far away from failure most of the reps are shit so yes stacking more piles of shit gets you more shit and that’s what they’re doing. If instead you take sets to failure or close you have equal total effective reps with astronomical less volume. Please I want to save anyone watching this advice and best advice is watch Lyle McDonald and hypertrophy coach video called rep circle

[@GoodByeSkyHarborLive]

Lol you're mad and wrong

[@jukkasz2677]

​@@GoodByeSkyHarborLiveHe is 100% right. Check Drew Baye and Jay Vincent. Majority of the people in the fitness field base their beliefs in erroneus assumptions.

[@GoodByeSkyHarborLive]

@@jukkasz2677 lol those guys don't know anything are just low volume fanboya. High volume is still beneficial based on the literature.

[@jukkasz2677]

​@@GoodByeSkyHarborLiveYou're mad and wrong. Everything they teach is evidence-based. Read "Evidence-Based Resistance Training Recommendations for Muscular Hypertrophy (2013)" from Fisher, Steele and Smith.

@jukkasz277 Researching these guys I found Kevin Richarson. Thanks a million.
