Joe Weider's Bodybuilding Training System: Tape 7 - Mass & Strength Training

[@andremead6192]

One key thing to remember also (and I don't know if they touched on this), is that the concept of "heavy" is relative. I might consider a set of 200 lb bench presses heavy while another guy might only consider it moderate. Your muscle don't know the exact amount your lifting, all they know is how much effort they're producing. So, while you should always train heavy, you should train intelligently. Mass doesn't come just from "heavy" it comes from using more effort than you did the last time. It actually becomes very instinctual too. Obviously if your whole body is quivering just holding the weight, then it's too much for you. There's no shame in reducing weight a little until you find that "sweet spot" where your muscle is being challenged just enough to grow yet not so much that your courting injury. Train heavy, train often, train smart. And R.I.P Mr. Weider💪

[@LuisAndrade-dy4in]

i been doing it for 3 years and love it. the best tool for .antiaging and selfconfidence!!!!

[@taylenday]

4:05 Damn Lou, struggling with an empty bar...

[@devteazaver]

He is doing eccentric training

[@stanblackburn700]

Man, the soundtrack for this is intense 80s rock -- drum machine and shred guitar. Great video from a great time.

[@mrkalitin]

Is it me or were women back than way more classy?

[@admarvelwarlock]

Yeah I noticed that too. Not the slutfest that it is today. Watching Rachel McList just gave me a huge boner >:-D

[@ColJochen]

admarvelwarlock Rachel Mclish was very articulate, smart, humble, and damn sexy. Even in her older age she looks phenomenal. Very classy women.

[@MrJonni70]

Have you seen the film "Rita,Sue and Bob too"? that will give you an idea :)

[@edgarmarquez6178]

Hell yeah bro bunch of skanks now a days i would never like to get married

[@bruhman8005]

the media has normalized sex, lack of responsibilty and taking away self accountability

[@sonnylee6355]

best trainnig video series ever.

[@QueensNativeNYC]

I remember these tapes, they used to come free with the Joe Weider weight gaining powders back in the 90`s

[@TS50ER]

Very informative basic principles that are often forgotten in this information overload age. Thanks for posting.

[@mdd1963]

4:13 - shows Lou Ferrigno, discussing heavy weights, squeezing out heavy reps...with an empty olympic bar totaling 45 lbs; well done, Lou!

[@IceColdProfessional]

Fuck yeah!

[@nicecutie]

so many legends in this video. thanks

[@coachgumby1421]

These videos are pretty good. You'd have to read and sort through a lot of spam and shit to find this information.

[@zigzzagz5732]

Matarazzo had freaking awesome arms and calves. Just freaky!! And none of that synthol shyte either. I see posts online where people are accusing bodybuilders from the 90's, even as far back as the '70's and Arnolds biceps of being full of synthol. Synthol wasn't invented until '96 and I assume took at least a year or two to get well known. Matarazzo had the awesome arms well before '96

[@dkes6049]

Yes, he was the best there was when it came to arms and calves. Mike was just massive over-all. You can see his sheer bulk at 23:43, and the guy in black looks like a little kid. The only person who could rival Mike then was probably Paul Demayo (RIP). Paul was about 2 years younger, just as tall with about the same sized arms and calves, but had bigger thighs and a fuller chest. I think Paul was stronger over-all. Met them both in Boston when just a kid, and was just totally in awe at their massive muscles and intimidating size.

[@kathleenwelch6141]

I've done the women's courts a few time in my life and now at 85 1/2 years old I'm healthy as can be. It works. Just don't over do it.

[@Hellthrasher]

Excellent vid. A nice reminder of what the basics were all about.

[@Fitforacting]

Even though it’s free here, I would still pay t have the whole collection on DVD 📀

[@yourdad3332]

That's nice of you but it's free here so spend that money on some other important thing like Whey protein.

[@morokking]

nothing like this now at days, proper 90s the best !!

[@Th3Barbarian01]

This is gold ✨👌 i love it

[@mariacuellar6038]

I really enjoyed this video, a lot of tips.

[@Teqo7]

Damn good video! Thx for upload, subbed!

[@dillonmcannnell]

Ed Coan was a beast stonger than anybody else in this video hands down

[@cuts240]

the bruiser in the yellow shirt has a "wonderful" mullet. LOL

[@aftergraduationvlogs7610]

hahaah... 7:20 Quote: I dont want to look like an east german swimmer hahahaha

[@georgistoev3817]

22:24 David and Goliat

[@Krish957]

RIP to the father of bodybuilding

[@ryanmccarthy2033]

It's 2023 when I write this and 98% of this still holds merit. People want new secrets and new ways hey we are human what works works. If something works don't change it

[@delcshimo]

i think we've learned alot more about fitness since these times, the idea that theres shapping exerices and mass exerices is a big misnomer

[@HygreN]

lol the music in the back

[@RoshanKumar-cz1pr]

Francis benfatto and Bob Paris 😍😍

[@frikandelkroket9335]

My heroes from the nineties.

[@KakashiSenpai84]

yes he was called the master blaster in his training days.

[@MarnibiOutThere]

Lou is really struggling with that empty barbell at 26:40 haha

[@PolarBearJS]

4:15 the guy seems to struggle with an empty bar!!

[@KLRGT500KR]

Yeah, that was Lou Ferrigno who was struggling with an empty bar without any weight. Don't know why? Maybe, he was dramatizing for the camera.

[@mysteryman123able]

i struggle with an empty bar....well theres no one to talk to.........just a little english humor

[@jrex3]

Odds are it was a warm up and he was using max effort to make sure his chest work. I mean It isn't rocket science.

[@beeleigh23]

4:11 Ferrigno is straining under an empty bar haha

[@yourdad3332]

Lmao!

[@cruyeda]

Funny, years ago, an investigative report had Weider products tested. It didn't do anything, so The report went to interview Joe Weider. Joe Weider's next in command said Joe Weider was out of town but he could answer any questions. The report explained that Weider ads were misleading because the products they sold didn't do anything. The assistant said they never claimed their products did anything. In the meantime, as the video was filming, you could see Joe Weider pacing back and forth, outside of the office, listening to the interview. The report said the ads showed a muscular body builder, insinuating that the products would make you look like that. The assistant's answer? We can't help what people think. After that news program and decided never to try Weider's products.

[@rickyd121]

Love the 80's

[@davidrenderos923]

Great information

[@zigzzagz5732]

Weiders voice at the beginning sounds like Squiggys from Laverne & Shirley. Lol

[@SuperDougie89]

What year was this? Looks around 1991 1992 to me.

[@TheWalsymezrp]

lol wtf is Ed Coan doing here and how old is he in here?

[@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw]

Walsymezrp Kowalczyk of all powerlifter in his time , he's been in joe weirder magazines. He made it popular really

[@6x14ludwig1992]

Walsymezrp Kowalczyk Ed was born in ‘64. This definitely looks to be mid-late ‘80s. Mid-late twenties? He looks like a light 220 lb lifter here. Definitely not competing at 242 yet!

[@lukeskywalker1574]

Love these old videos - they miss out the biggest and most important advice to look like a competitive bodybuilder - Eat Clen, Tren hard, an avar give up! Having said that, can still attain good results naturally, just wont ever look like anyone in this video lol

[@tdouglas7012]

😂😂😂😂

[@phillipjohnson7583]

Great videos...no hokie pokie bull-crapola!

[@jpizzle470]

well.. i said hes the greatest powerlifter. i didnt say bodybuilder.. i aint no newb. i know there are many different ways to train for all different goals.. but the guy in the video Ed Coan is a powerlifter.. so he wouldnt want to waste much time on hypertrophy, endurance, and flexibility.. but i myself agree that the average guy would do best in combining them. id like you to elaborate on how Ed Coan doesnt know what hes talking about.. thats the only part i disagree on

[@arghyadipsaha3979]

Mike Mentzer HIT is the best traning system for building muscles .

[@jamezrobertz8638]

Big Lou looks awesome.

[@BartyCrease]

4:14 I remember my first time repping the bar too

[@estebanshamrock]

hi do you have a joe weider training sistem book´s?

[@PatrickEvans-x1v]

Serge nubret build muscle using light to moderate weights ...high sets high reps...less rests

[@Foralluhaterz]

+realhiphopdotcom Thats what I do and my results are better than my friends doing heavy ass weights and feeling like shit afterwards, which could lead to hypertension and heart attcks etc?

[@dakkitoto3467]

+realhiphopdotcom Steroids

[@PatrickEvans-x1v]

+herr kurt go to the gym

[@dakkitoto3467]

hahah, i do, ignorant fuck

[@dakkitoto3467]

Your balls should be surgically removed for not knowing better

[@ferriscashmere7307]

Mike was a pretty good actor!!!

[@danstafford5977]

Bodybuilding is like driving a semi-truck you don't always want to be stuck in first gear!

[@ae746890]

305 to 405???!!! Thank you, Paul Dillet😬🤔🤔

[@jpizzle470]

that guy you said doesnt know much happens to be the greatest powerlifter of all time. he's squatted over 1000lbs. you shouldnt always go 6-12 reps. if you want to train purely for strength (as powerlifters do) going as low as 1-5 reps is best.

[@donniebrasco1364]

Its sad how pathetic trolls are. Most online trolls die before their 30s.

[@doubanjiang]

The BroScience. It burns!

[@y2knoproblem]

You want big muscles? Get on the juice - Weider's Juice.

[@Ayetown16]

It's crazy how much mike mattarazzo has changed

[@Ayetown16]

he was awesome man .. always loved his attitude towards the weight ,,, no bullshit towards anything

[@arpegio88]

23:16, I don't think Mike Matarazzo (R.I.P.) could've gotten any BIGGER, if he did his traps would've snapped tank top right off!

[@IceColdProfessional]

He's not big, his head is just small.

[@ignacio1278]

4:10 training with heavy weight?? FAKE!!! there are not plates!!

[@mmill9169]

Big ups to the soft core porno background music.

[@ameenqureshi5677]

Bro science !

[@aran125]

ameen quarishi There’s actually very strong underlying physiologic science with how weight training works and builds, sculps, and tones the muscular body-it just sounds like “bro science” with how it’s described. But muscularity doesn’t come out of nowhere.

[@andrewformosa8577]

still good work

[@raidacaipo]

24:48 They seem like they dont like each other lol. A power lifter and body builder

[@pitbullpowersystems8704]

best times.

[@ikey1555]

as old as this is holds up

[@Bergred]

Interesting they show Dorian in the vid who was a Mentzer like follower which was sand in the gears for the Weider style.

[@Tomazenko]

25:55 why is Michael J. Fox talking about compensatory acceleration?

[@jrex3]

Lol he really does look like MJF

[@Fitforacting]

Lol

[@pitbullpowersystems8704]

rip mike matarazzo

[@baller84milw]

Lol. Anybody else realize that instructional videos from the 90s always have a random electric guitar solo in the background.

[@viktorm3109]

Is this tape for ppl who are trying to do natural body building?

[@CoachDouglasOdom]

Vvvm there are better options. This video is just “4 sets of 10 reps” on about everything.

[@ILuvPrisonWomen]

i love the guitar in this section towrds the end , would love to know where to get just the music or know who its composed by

[@Thelostboy808]

Rule of thumb is 1g for every pound you weigh, so 166g a day would be ideal for gaining.

[@leorrize]

32:30 what is his name ?

[@zacharyyaffe3461]

I believe it is Mike Matarazzo

[@cruyeda]

Funny, I saw a TV show a long time ago. The reporter said that their investigation uncovered the fact that Weider products do nothing to enhance bodybuilding.When they asked for an interview, they said Weider was out of town, however, the door was slightly ajar and you could see him listening to the interview at the door.

[@ClassicTor]

Still the same today supplements are shit

[@RickMcGroovy]

Love it

[@JoeCnNd]

Yeah workout with heavy weight. Not just the bar like the guy at 4:13 whose straining. Lol.

[@neillyboy3123]

Paul DILLET very intense!

[@DexterHaven]

Yes, Joe Weider's method has been discredited as "overtraining" by bodybuilders and trainers alike. Search for (Mr. Universe) Mike Mentzer's last interview on-line, where he explains the heavy duty or high-intensity method, which was a response to the methods of Joe Weider and Arthur Jones.

[@dustem69]

the guy at 22:40 looks like the guys on "how much ya bench" with chris farley.

[@thernero2829]

Music tracklist?

[@kathleenwelch6141]

what are the after effects ?

[@IceColdProfessional]

A Godlike body, admiration from normal humans, self confidence, sex drive, and superior physical strength.

[@cazattack23]

this video is fuckin amazing

[@james48311]

hi my names is james and i like to know how can i build up strenght and mass on my body i hope you can help me.

[@GrowlInTheNight]

Rest In Peace :(

[@ILuvPrisonWomen]

i did a search and found one instrumental for right now and it sounded sorta similar but not exactly the one in this vid

[@prilepskayanadezhda970]

Scientific evidence reveal that you'll be able to optimise your muscles building process 2x-3x faster; just by modify your eating plan. Because time you spend on the gym is just 3% of all your time.

[@jrex3]

Damn Ed Coan is so damn young here.

[@jasonschneweis895]

All good advice if you're a natural athlete. What these athletes and the promoters of this video don't tell you is that all the athletes in this video are on steroids or PED's of some sort. Follow these principles and eat like me and you'll look like me... yeah right. It would be funny if they did an update to discuss the cycles and dosages they were taking at the time. God bless them for promoting fitness but, be honest or at least come clean after the fact.

[@OGEazh]

Hello, I'm 18 weigh 200pounds and I'm a lot stronger than the average 18yea old in the gym, I have a very hungry desire to be extremely strong, my first aim is to be the strongest in my gym! I'm also fat and don't look very muscular, I know that I cold lose fat but I am frightened of losing a lot of strength which is my main and always will be focus, but I Also want to be in good shape, I honestly do not know what to do, any at all Information and help will be extremely appreciated!

[@OGEazh]

Cool bro! keep it up

[@izzzmeister]

Dude, don't sweat it! Look, for example, at the Paul Anderson story, who was one of the strongest people of all times. At 22, when he was breaking world records, he didn't look very muscular - he looked fat - but boy, were there layers of muscle underneath. My advice: 1) People, including girls, will sense that you're strong, and will be drawn towards you even without a "six-pack". 2) Lift your way out of the fat, not diet your way out. Your strength gains will at least stall while you're dieting. Lots of protein, complex carbs, beans, veggies, over 6 or so meals, and your weight will come down because your body will be a muscle-building furnace. 3) Lift like a powerlifter (squat, bench press, deadlift), supplement with extra glute (gluteus maximus is the largest muscle mass in your body, train them special with hip bridges & thrusts a la Bret Contreras) & core work. That'll build the strength you want, burn the most calories & help you beat up anyone who calls you fat...

[@mrduster1981]

Nobody cares fuck nut

[@jpizzle470]

its old but not much has really changed besides the hair and clothes. what parts of this video do you think are now outdated?

[@francescomucciacito6161]

He's called Mike Matarazzo!

[@celestialtitan3973]

4:03 No weights on that Bar.. lol:)

[@peterl.1574]

Celestial Titan lol. They duped Lou. Wasn't hard.

[@TheGhostOperative]

compensatory acceleration???....pardon me sir, but it sounds awful lot like kipping and swinging to us simple folks.

[@mdd1963]

7:24 -- Rachel was THE hottie of the decade!!!!

[@stackindatpapa]

I meant 04:05

[@PeTeMaTiC1]

so how much protein should i eat on my rest days? Im about 166lbs

[@IceColdProfessional]

200g minimum. When training hard, there is no limit to how much protein you should eat.

[@mrmushin1]

the incrediable hulk at 10;40 cool

[@John_Rivas]

eddie!!! he made the video

[@StandardAccountify]

wow....its so full of myths. Thx for sharing vintage !

[@lakaumbucha]

LOL! 4:01 NO PLATE ON THE BAR!!!

[@tonytecni]

Saludos lastima que este tipo de vídeos no tenga traducción al español nos ayudarían mucho mas aun

[@LexingtonPlummer]

¿Qué parte te gustaría traducir? Mi español no es bueno, pero intentaré traducirlo si lo desea.

[@jpizzle470]

but what do you disagree with? you dont seem to be saying anything i dont agree with.. except that not all powerlifters do hypertrophy work or cardio.. and some bodybuilders only use light weight. but for the most part i think we agree.

[@sz42781]

16:30 this guy is all Bro science
