[@shaunbarratt8251]

Thanks for the video. I discovered you recently and am making my way through your catalogue. May I ask, what sort of rep+set range would you recommend for the squat, bench, deadlift and overhead press for a new lifter who wants to focus primarily on developing technique/form? I used to lift for a year and a half or so doing the stronglifts programme but I never really developed my technique properly. I’m just getting into lifting again after years of depression and I want to start with a better foundation this time around, to try and make up for lost time and to set myself up for success down the line. Are there any programmes you would recommend? I quite like the idea of powerbuilding, and I plan to do calisthenics/functional training alongside my weight training. I have a large work capacity and very good recovery. If you could provide any advice it would be very much appreciated.

[@shaunbarratt8251]

Hello again, just to expand on my previous comment, what books of yours would you recommend, given my situation? You’re clearly knowledgeable and a lot of what you say makes sense to me. I want to focus on developing technique for squats, deadlifts, bench, and overhead press, and I want to add in barbel rows, barbel curls, some dumbell exercises, bodybuilding, bodyweight/calisthenics, general functional training, etc. Essentially, I’d like to be as well rounded as possible whilst developing excellent technique on the core compound movements. When I used to lift, I would progress very quickly and my work capacity + recovery was, in my opinion, abnormally high. It has been a few years but I can’t see that having changed. Thanks for your time.

[@tylerm.4857]

Hi Alexander, great video. Could you do an indepth video on the GZCL program?

[@hngloose4]

Hey Bromley, A video/series I would really enjoy is how to best utilize some of your programs for different athletes. For example "How to run Bullmastiff for the Strongman Athlete" (Can the peak cycle be used as event prep? Should Strongmen do something other than normal bench?) I really like your programming but wonder if its worth my time investing in bench gains when what I really want is better placing in overhead events.

[@HooDRidEWhiteY]

Hey fellas. I actually bought one of these mattresses using Bronleys code. It works. I'm a 6' 285# joocey boy and it's holding up well.

[@BluegillGreg]

In the early 70s our Dad taught my brother and me starting with the clean and press. We used cast iron plates from a concrete floor, so we also learned to lower under control. Dad got the equipment as a teen, just after WW II, and our exercises were from a book published in the 1930s. We started by progressing reps from 6 to 12, then started again from 6 with more weight. We did a fair amount of messing around in addition to our programmed lifts. 50 years later I still favor fast floor to overhead lifts, slow eccentrics, and adding reps before weight. What a long, strange trip it's been...

[@noone-pg4lr]

That’s cool I love working out with my dad

[@simak2391]

​@@noone-pg4lrI'm trying to get my dad to do more lifting instead of just running on the treadmill and doing a couple of machine excercises aimlessly with way too little weight. He's 65 but in relatively good shape still, so I'm trying to encourage him to keep it that way. He's got a lot of incorrect beliefs about some excercises or positions being dangerous for whatever reason the media or some friend of his has portrayed them to be. Anyway, I got him to machine chest press last week. He tried it a couple of months ago with horrible form and said it felt weird in his shoulder so he was reluctant to try it again, until he did. Now he likes it. Go figure 😂

[@Jafmanz]

What an excellent thing your dad did for you. I’m doing exactly this with my 3 children tomorrow.

It doesnt matter if you are bulking or cutting , just keep going to the gym !!

That seems simple but is in fact one of the best pieces of advice ever given

[@HerculesFit]

[@olddirtybastiat3915]

Can you please explain? I always thought staying in a caloric surplus/deficit would matter when you are building your goal physique

[@Fivefinefish12344]

​@@olddirtybastiat3915you have probably gotten an answer by now, but if not, here it is: you are correct. What he meant is that whenever you are in that caloric surplus/deficit, you should be consistent with the gym. Not that just going to the gym will do the bulking/cuttibg for you.

[@CaptainBrash]

Yeah I've always thought that a beginner in bodybuilding and powerlifting should have pretty similar looking programs to begin with. Its about building underlying strength, size, cardiovascular fitness/conditioning and habits.

[@ethandeutsch1226]

Incredible advice that I cannot believe is free to hear, all novice and almost all intermediate lifters would benefit from watching this. I think a good thing to note in this video is, especially for new lifters, having them understand that this is JUST the lifting part. They still need to eat and sleep properly to have the most success! I love your channel and I love your work, keep it up!

[@tapioperala3010]

Long long time ago, when I was 15 years old back in mid-90s, I just started to do... Well, something. I tried to follow what my older step-brother (who actually brought me to the gym the first time) did, and just took from there. Sure he and other gym members helped me with technique, etc., but I'd like to say that at least 80 % was something I just learned on my own. Trying out what felt good and gave results. Started to experiment and work, learn from mistakes and successes.

[@bingbong5340]

i agree with almost everything said, except for when he said if you start a sport at 4 you’ll hate it by the time you’re twelve, i started bjj at 4, always loved it and it opened the door for other sports like wrestling and football

[@abysswalker9765]

Alex, your book "base strength" gave me so much - thank you for introducing us to all this concepts and facets of training! Bullmastiff did wonders for me. But now i want to know what's next, should i run it again, just switch developmental and bodybuilding exercises, or it would be better to run another program, like bodybuilding program? Bullmastiff kept me busy for 18 weeks, but on the macro level, on the scale of one year, how should my periodization look like? How and when to switch between different programs?

[@kukysgod]

you should be very fine running Bullmastiff again (base phase at least). Nothing wrong with that, could be nice to introduce some different forms of developmental exercises for SBD. Just to switch things up (from the fun side of things), introduce novel stimulus and so on. Could actually be beneficial because you know what to improve on from the first run through. You know your weaknesses and strengths. No need to really change a program if it's at least "bearable". I'm currently on my deload week before testing my 1RMs. I would honestly run it again myself but I would maybe fasten up the peaking phase (I'm not an competitive athlete in PL, just wanted to try the peaking phase for fun), from 9 to 4-5 weeks just to get to the higher intensity type of things for one block (basically one month). But this is my own preference because I'm not a competitive PL. I'm so glad that I have some experience with the autoregulation from Bullmastiff, works wonders. The only thing I didn't really like on the whole program was the peaking phase. I don't know if the auto regulation method is the right thing to do in that phase (first 6 weeks are okay, but the last 3 weeks of the hardest work it doesn't seem that great to me, I wasn't able to get to the intensity I would expect from the last weeks of peak). Most of my last heavy working sets (they were all over 100% of my 1RM thanks to all the reps I did before) are in the 5-6 rep range. Yeah for sure it means that I got way, way stronger thanks to Bullmastiff (I really think that it's fucking good) but I think that it might hurt me when I'm gonna be testing my 1RMs because I never really got used to the really low reps (1s, 2s, 3s) with super, super high intensity. Let's see how this thing goes in the next week.

[@abysswalker9765]

@@kukysgod Thanks for the thoughtful answer man. I had the same experience in the peaking phase - I did a +30kg PR deadlift and did that weight for 5 reps, but after that I just couldn't lift more weight even for one rep. On the other hand, I had a huge +30kg squat PR in one max rep test day. I was too greedy on the bench, added only 15 kg to previous 1 RM, but I wanted more, so I took too much weight and sprained my shoulder... That also had educational value too, to be honest

[@ukaszkos8233]

"Peak strength" contains information and recommendations about progression from novice to advanced. IMO, it's more useful than "Base strength".

[@frankcolliton10]

By far, this guy has The Best lifting videos on KZbin. Very informative and bits of humor. 👍

[@billybobbritt433]

Just did the minimalist peaking program from Base Strength for 6 weeks and put like 10% on all my maxes so im very happy. I didnt understand how to peak properly before.

[@chief8079]

What were your numbers before and after the program? Did you bulk or maintain during the program?

[@billybobbritt433]

@Chief S/B/D/OHP started at 365/285/405/180 and now it's 405/315/455/195. Also my weight is about the same the first 3 weeks I was bulking and the last 3 weeks I was cutting. I had lifted heavy before but never dropped out all the volume and accessories so that made a big difference

[@Artofdanieljoseph]

Love your videos bro. I’m 38 and I’m trying to build my strength back up after getting out shape for way to long. I appreciate your videos very much. Been going at it for a few months working out in my garage! I always check out your videos for good content.

[@casperthegst]

I made the best progress of my life on greyskull variants. Currently been doing conjugate which I know you are not a fan of but John Schafer is a proponent of conjugate and I’m making good progress with it to.

[@bondedcarbon]

I also made great gains on greyskull coming out of beginner phase with a couple of accessories thrown in, pull-ups, rows, curls, tricep pushdowns and that was mostly it

[@hector5670]

i tried your kong program and figured it wasnt for me, but i incorporated the behind the neck push press as a pressing variation and its really really fun so thanks for that

[@ericreed2064]

In the beginning I had lost 90 pounds, from 305 to 215, after getting sober since I am an alcoholic. I got tired of eating 2000 or less calories a day and didnt like the deflated look I had. I discovered that lifting would not only fill me out, but I would be able to eat a lot more. I got hooked quick! Being an addict my addictive personality isn't solely for drugs or alcohol. In the beginning everything I did worked, and with 6 months or more at Planet Fitness I got to about 230 with decent gains. The gym is incredibly lacking though so I went on to Anytime Fitness. I did well there and added about another 10 pounds, but I got greedy thinking is should be able to keep adding weight every week and hurt my shoulder. Covid hit and with no gym, a hurt shoulder, and keeping my appetite from lifting... I got much fatter and soft. No I'm 16 weeks into a recomp and learning I can't do the big 3 twice a week plus hypertrophy work, powerbuilding, afterward. I have to swap compounds in my second push, pull, or leg day and limit the effort to just one or two hard sets per compound.

[@rg3412]

So much good sense in this video! Especially the bit about the dangers of forcing kids into specialization are a young age.

[@bigfoot14eee99]

My first experience with training was in 1973 with a DP barbell set from Wards and Bruce Randall's book. With respect to Mr. Randall's accomplishments, it wasn't a very good book. I understand now that he was beholden to his employer (DP) and the point of the book was to highlight the barbell set. Kids today have no idea how fortunate they are to have channels like yours.

[@hipstar1]

you've taught me so much bro, i hope i can be as strong as you one day. your long form vids aren't boring which is rare on yt. barbell work is scary to me, but i think im gonna give it a try starting next week. plus it's more impressive for the ladies lol

[@hipstar1]

i'm still in the beginning, ive been trying to bulk up and so far ive gained 10 lbs in a month. thats crazy to me i thought i just couldn't gain weight. im now 147 hoping to get to 175 and then maybe cut or something but my strength isn't great rn. i can leg press 165 for 3x12 as of my last leg day so thats really good to me because its more than my body weight. i can only chest press 85 rn but hopefully with consistency i can get it to like 200 one day that'd be inconceivable. take care alex thanks for being a good man

[@ericrobinsonjr6788]

You always got great information with nice detail. I love the story's and humor that you throw in. Thx for the info.

[@AndJusTIceForRob]

Btw, speaking of step loading, I just bumped into an article Andy Baker wrote a couple years ago called “Building Training Volume for the Advanced Strength Athlete.” He’s got a wonderfully written portion on step loading - even though he doesn’t call it that. Now that I’ve watched the whole thing, you picked up some good momentum in this video but then it was as though someone pulled the plug before it was done. I was really digging the psychological piece and the reasons why one would go with one of the four families of methods. You alluded to the need for some special and advanced when the time was right. You started diving into the four families of methods and why one might go a certain our if they were a beginner. And then that was it. I’d be curious to see the rest of the story where you address when an advanced person would go to the barbell-only part. Or just what an advanced person would be getting into in general. Numbers-wise, I’m stuck between intermediate and advanced land, but I’ve been handling barbells for 25 years and have some miles on me. And I’ve got limited time. I was hoping to see what someone with some miles and limited time and high aspirations fits into these. Just a thought for the ideas bank in case your video ideas start slowing down later on. Thanks for doing these, you’ve been on fire lately.

[@aprichman]

14:50 nice just got my new program thank you sir

[@RazgrizDuTTA]

I am a big nerd: I almost like programming as much as lifting. I do powerbuilding 5 days/week. For strength I use the max effort method and heavy singles, density training (cluster set of singles and breathing squat) and a bit of wave periodization. The bodybuilding part of my program is 3/4 of my volume: I keep it simple with double progression and everything to failure. My friends say that my program is far too complicated and that my volume and intensity are overkill and dangerous. Maybe I can do that only because I am a beginner (1st year of lifting) but it is fun and I am happy with the strength and size gains.

[@lukaposeidon8490]

How is it possible to do double progression and every set to failure at the same time?

[@RazgrizDuTTA]

@@lukaposeidon8490 If I go beyond my target rep range on the first set and I am able to stay at least in the target rep range for the subsequent sets, I go up in weight next workout. Maybe it is not strictly speaking double progression?

[@lashedandscorned]

It's not overkill/dangerous if you have proper deload. When it comes to strength work on compound lifts, you have to worry about CNS fatigue in addition to muscle recovery. When it comes to accessory movements & bodybuilding work on the other hand, you only need to worry about muscle recovery. Do high volume, and your body will adapt & gain the endurance needed (as long as you're not doing over the top/ridiculously high volume, obviously). Wave periodization is great for managing recovery/fatigue when it comes to deadlifts.

[@Jamezee312]

Wish I saw this two years ago when I first started. Wasted so much time doing barbell work when I wanted hypertrophy as my main goal.

[@CaptainBrash]

My fitness starting point where I was doing something regularly, multiple times per week was after I broke my ankle and my girlfriend broke up with me but we had to keep living together because of money stuff. So spending hours in the gym was preferable to being at home. Started off about 30 with boxing, and doing rowing for my cardio while my ankle was recovering. Then did some weights stuff very very wrong. (Not dangerous wrong) When the pandemic happened I moved onto running and calisthenics with rings with some boxing specific conditioning. Then got seriously into running and doing strength and hypertrophy training. Now I don't have time to do anything seriously due to a baby and another one on the way so just doing what I can trying to keep things maintained until my time opens up again.

[@Caffeine.And.Carvings]

Also a video idea: how do we get our SOs in the gym. Kinda need to rethink everything, when the easiest bench i can think would be just the bar, but she cant even one rep it. Put her on machine work and slowly progressing to suuuuper light dumbell work in this case. But with every movement on her full body 2x a week plan it really makes you rethink how to plan for a beginner who never touched metal amd also has a widely different physiology as a woman.

[@BluegillGreg]

I have a technique bar that weighs 15 pounds and a pair of 5 pound technique plates. The bar can handle 150 pounds of plates.

Idk man. You dont need to overcomplicate everyting. RPE, RIR, percentages, progressions, etc. Just lift harder than the last time and thats it. If I do benchpress 4x10 with 100 kilos, thats 4000 kilos lifted. Next workout I need to lift more. So I can just do more than 40 total reps with 100 kilos. For example 12,10,10,10 reps. Thats literally it.
