CHANGE YOUR TEMPO - Using Isometrics For MORE GAINS - Adam Schafer Workout #2

[@fatnesstofitnessthereandback]

I come because I love MP, i stay for Adam’s labored breathing prior, during and after his workout.

[@MindPumpAdam]

[@jeffilli1663]

Pause....haha

[@Angel283]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@abbieceesay832]

Super blown away that you are taking the time and energy to take us along for the ride.

[@kdaddy9229]

Hey mate. As someone who’s battled shoulder and back injuries for the better part of a decade, on top of laziness, this is really inspiring. To see someone as advanced as you pull the intensity and volume right back, check your ego at the door and just focus on what you’re capable of doing is amazing. Much respect mate

[@dagnut]

same....I started to use incline bench on the smith.....stabilising the dumb bells was the difficult part not the press...the smith allows me to get into a the most comfortable position and also the security of the stopper springs...smith get unnecessary backlash but if you're older or dealing with injury I wouldn't use anything else for pressing

[@ebrant003]

This format of video is extremely helpful.

[@marcelocaballero8128]

This is so useful even for experienced lifters we can just lose ourself chasing intensity and progression. This month I'm gonna do exactly what Adam is talking about

[@dwrod24]

Amen to that!!

[@lawncareprosllc534]

Practicing what you preaching! This is why I love Mind Pump💪💪

[@MindPumpTV]

Always!

[@adrianacardoso1918]

I love this series . And Adam being my favourite guy is a treat . So many valuable cues and being able to visualise the technique is amazing! Thank you ❤

[@JessieStylz]

I've honestly learned so much watching these last two sessions I'm so excited I'm gonna watch every single one I think I'm addicted this is made me a bigger fan of MP than ever before!

[@paulgunter3475]

"Challenge and stimulate growth. That's only going to facilitate recovery and healing." Good word.

[@NormandDesrochers-r3h]

Thanks Adam, I am suffering from a shoulder injury for a while and soon I will have a shoulder surgery. Although I have been training consistently for years and I own a lot of MAPS workouts programs, all your comments, cues & exercises demonstrations help me SO much. Your vulnerability, integrity and work ethic are actually providing with what I need right now to attack my shoulder rehab appropriately. THANKS

[@Silva123]

Keep the series going

[@devinmoore1407]

As soon as you said “yeah buddy” I immediately responded with “Light weight!”

[@kylethornton7244]

My girl walked in and asked if I was watching porn. Said no watching Adam work out

[@ASMR-Sammy]

I love your comment on how we are chasing aesthetics but to "hang in there". Such a true statement and how easy it is to fall into the trap of not seeing the progress or putting too much value in a number. Can't tell you how many times I've fallen into that mindset. Thank you again for sharing another amazing video. All really great insights to what you are thinking, feeling, and experiencing.

[@michaelschiller9570]

I just saw this series... I'm loving this content.

[@eduenas1999]

I love how you break down why you are doing each warm up/ exercise. You can tell how much experience you have!

[@macmclark65]

This docu-series is shaping up to be epic

[@lukemraz4282]

Hey Adam 10 years ago I got into fitness and the bodybuilding world and I filtered through a lot until I happened upon your journey and Mindpump and similar to you eventually got on stage. Now about to turn 33 over the last year I have really fallen off in regards to my self care with fitness and nutrition focusing more on career and I’ve had trouble finding motivation to get myself back to the gym so I guess I just want to say thank you to you for being this transparent and in doing so inspiring me enough to check my ego and believe it’s okay to start from scratch regardless of where I was 5-6 years ago.

[@BJ-ds9wv]

I learn so much every time I watch your videos. I am so looking forward to watching you on this journey and following along as to the best of my ability.

[@waywardwisdoms]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has a gym for a type of workout or phase that I'm on

[@danielparks3083]

This is awesome! Thanks, Adam! I need to bring back jacked, too. I'm doing this along with you!

[@lynbrint]

16:37 This is so helpful to see your tempo, rest periods and intensity during a workout. Could you please talk about your breathing pattern during your lifts? Are you holding your breath at any point? Thx for the clarification!

[@vreynolds7]

So, thankful for Adam showing us his whole process, getting back to a fit routine after time off. Going through the same journey. This can apply to so many. Even if your new to the fit space. Already learned a ton of new game! Makes my journey easier with so many questions I had! 💪🏻

[@nicholasmartinez6043]

This gonna be an awesome series. As Adam is talking through his thought process during his workout, I can recall something he said in episodes past that was related to his comments. It’s awesome to see the podcast and the workout come together. Great work Adam

[@Andrew-i4l9b]

What we needed

[@ChrisCardenas-e7w]

More videos! These are great, Adam!

[@Moneybags891]

Love the new format

[@smarteranna24]

Love this series very helpful to seen the rebuild in action- ty for this hard work!

[@suezai]

All for it! Another fantastic watch! Grateful for your sharing your journey with us! 💪🔥💥❤️

[@RE71476AD]

Recent research has shown incline bench is better for overall chest growth vs flat. Feels better too in the full ROM. PS to Adam: no one is thinking you can't lift heavy matey....stop thinking about what others may think....we are watching and we are learning from the master. Cheers!

[@Sc19869]

I do both

[@vibesincolor6554]

Love so many things about this video! A must watch for newbies and seasoned athletes. Being mindful and strategic is so important for long term commitment. Even if that means going in and doing one set! Awesome, thanks for sharing !

[@leeroy7725]

Sending this series to everyone I know!! Such amazing tips and insights!! 💪🏿

[@MarwaRakha]

Great job, Adam! Can you share hacks to deal with that ego getting in the way?

[@michelepeterson5765]

Glad you’re showing the mobility work too. Keep these coming!

[@MindPumpTV]

That's the plan!

[@lisandrahaynes7631]

Cool to see the Mind Pump philosophy in action.

Intensity is key . When I focused on that my body changed

I was thinking the same thing😅😂😅

[@CynicalWarlock]

First Linkin Park, now Nickelback - these guys share my entire playlist.

[@ABSCrunchFit28]

Thanks for loving Nickleback! Love these videos and workouts! #CanadaProud

[@gracekniess4194]

Following along with the mobility! 😅

[@brandknewme]

I've not only become more fit watching these informative videos, but I have also started wearing red shirts again.

[@michellecolledge2355]

All or nothing..yep, that's my problem. I just need to take Adam's advice and give myself permission to do what I can.

[@derekryanx]

Loving this series. Are you doing things naturally or are you on gear?

[@KurVibes]

Hey Mind Pump Team! Quick question about the MAPS 15 Minutes Advanced program. Since each phase targets different goals (Phase 1: 10 reps for hypertrophy, Phase 2: 15 reps for endurance, Phase 3: 5 reps for strength), is the 1-minute rest period optimal across all phases? Should rest times vary to better match the specific goals of each phase? If so, what rest durations would you recommend for each phase? Thanks for all the great info and support you provide through your programs and podcast!

[@Angel283]

So here is a business idea for y'all. Have Mind Pump gyms with personal trainers taught by you as a chain around the country starting with Knoxville TN. I know I am not the only one that would spend the extra $$ on this and I know I'm not the only one that wants to get fit and healthy.

[@richtondentalcare2862]

Adam: once you start tracking your food, since you are wanting to build muscle but also decrease your body fat, will you have to go into a calorie deficit or surplus? Thanks.

[@samdelaet3587]

Once I started lifting my GLP-1's did nothing. Max dose didn't even matter(Saxenda). I watched a post cast with the Hostel sups owner talking to a Doctor about this and he said that the muscle work metabolizes the meds before they can take effect. I found that to be true. A friend who was on it and still is got super super skinny but also did zero exercise or weight training lost 100lbs. I lost 45lbs on it with little exercise but knew I was going to lift again. So I got off of it and just watch my macros and lift. I'm 44 not trying to impress anyone...eat, lift, be strong.

[@poolpumped1364]

I must have missed the warm up. Isn’t warming up important before exercising, especially stretching when the body and muscles are cold? 😮

[@JohnnyDeezlifts]

Yea, getting to now watch Adam play out everything Mindpump teaches is sweet. I’m curious though how is it that this channel has over 750k subscribers and the normal Mind Pump channel has 500k?

[@MindPumpTV]

A lot of old how to videos

[@Batwing2465]

Would be nice to know exactly all the supplementation you're taking during this process. This would include oral and injection form.

[@MindPumpAdam]

I cover this . We are also going to release a weekly email to cover all the high level points . It’s all coming promise

[@heatheranderson1260]

90/90 position is great for the day after squats

[@adamsaucedo9646]

For the algorithm

[@Mikegreenhealth]

If you trying to open up the chest why are you doing rear delts hunched over?

[@retrosdisease]

Just curious, but since you are getting back into it why aren’t you starting back in with the 5x5 training to get strong again then start focusing on hypo trophy?

[@mattTHEEgreat]

Is it always that dark? Or is that just for the videos?

[@adrianacardoso1918]

The darker the better . Gym lighting is always shit . This is perfect

[@mattTHEEgreat]

@@adrianacardoso1918 I like a well lit gym. I mean the video looks good so what do I know

[@adrianacardoso1918]

@@mattTHEEgreat we are all different. That’s the beauty

[@MindPumpAdam]

Yes . Normally when we produce content we use all our other lights . We wanted this to be unedited and raw . Low production high value and raw was the goal . Won’t be everyone’s cup of tea . I get it

[@mattTHEEgreat]

@@MindPumpAdam I think the video looks good, but compared to y'all's older workout tutorial videos it's different.

Shouldn’t Adam be training calves?

Hey what kinda protein bars you eat?

Legion ! legionathletics.com/mindpump/ use code mindpump

[@sarajones6046]

What glp1 do you use and what dose?

[@codyworthman9085]

Adam, do you ever use the freemotion with the individual rope attachments on both sides for face pulls/W’s/y’s? Seems like you can get more ROM than a single rope, although it’s in the shortened position so it might not be superior.

[@MindPumpAdam]

I have . I want both right now so I can feel the discrepancy between left and right .

[@tysonali7698]

I've done maps ped twice maybe I'm doing too much

[@johnmcgahey16]

Hey Adam that CF shirt stands for CrossFit right!? Knew you were a closet fan 😂😂

[@enda19]

Wait so Adam you havent worked out in a long while, yet you still look this jacked?? Arms are looking sick at 4:45

[@MindPumpAdam]

4 months off and yes it pays to have been lifting for decades consistently . For sure what we’re always preaching to people . Get older can actually be a huge advantage if your spent decades of consistently lifting . 🤪

[@enda19]

@@MindPumpAdam That's awesome man! Thanks for replying too! I've been working out more seriously the past 5 years, and I was doing 4 days a week of just random stuff, but last year I started trying Anabolics just 2 days a week, and I have made more gains than I ever did. Amazing how just 2 days a week of full body can yield so much results. Appreciate all of you guys

Whoever didn’t re rack their squat weights needs to have their membership revoked. Bad gym etiquette MP 🤨

Adam be like , I’m super skinny right now . Yet his arms are ripped tf up . Sal was right in his workout video , Adam like to hide his body under them big shirt

[@SpeakHerMusic]

Nickelback is dope

[@salty3069]

Look at this photograph !!!!

[@irisk934]

I'm confused about how M can play the songs. Doesn't KZbin demonetize videos when they play actual songs?

[@crystaldingman773]

Uggh. Please get rid of the Nickleback. The nausea prevents me from listening to what you’re saying.

[@ivomachado5256]

As always great stuff Adam. Couple of questions. I can’t remember if you mentioned this specifically on the podcast but when you got injured by the wake, did you do anything specific besides bpc-157 to help with the healing? Any rehab or physio work or did you want an « ok » to start training again from a medicine practitioner? Or is it all based on feel? Also how much do you think bpc-157 would help with a small tear in the long head bicep cartilage? Waiting to hear back on cortisone shots and now wondering if bpc-157 would be better. Any thoughts?
