[@Timofeiuoiuiooius]

Thank you, Dr. Mike! Truly, truuuuly awesome series! For a guy, who just recently transitioned from "general lifting" to powerlifting, this is just like an actual treasure. Can't wait until I'm done with my hike to Mt.Fuji to start the hypertrophy phase! (sending love

[@jamesmartin6758]

10:08 basically the whole point summarized in an analogy

[@bayard9523]

This is not the stuff you usually find on youtube, amazing work ,well explained and easy to understand even for amateurs. Thank you!

[@ryanbatchlifts2045]

Mikes comedic ability is underrated😂😂

[@tracyjohnson5018]

Thank you for this great series and all of the other great content that you have on this great channel.

[@benjaminwetscher9614]

Hi Mike. It would be very helpful to round things off with a video about how to warm up (e.g. sets & %s) and how to select attempts for the meet. Thanks for your help you legend!

[@Mazer0600]

This content is phenomenal. Got a meet in 4 weeks. And I feel this gives me a great guide to success.

[@gaminlemon5632]

i've been looking for a only strength program because i dont really care about hypertrophy so this video has been great, both humor and learning

[@everettengineers4603]

Thank you, as always, Dr. Mike!! You are by far my FAVORITE person to go to for specifics on the inner workings of building strength!

[@squatsontheroad]

This 6 films change all my life trainig,thx Dr. Mike

[@aaronwelch5912]

I watched this last year in June prepping for a meet and I just didn’t really understand. Now with a little under a year more of experience I am so excited to give this a shot and see how it goes at my meet!

[@rao180677]

You sir should be awarded. No only you know what you're talking about as you have a communication skill. Thank you.

[@francoisstrength]

Comes back from Nationals after getting second by 5lb, after lowballing squat and bench to focus on a deadlift record (which I got, but still)... Does a PR set of 9 on squat while the androgen levels are still high. I'll deload when all the slow esters have cleared my system, in the meantime I gotta do this thing for my mind and all that. Luckily the coming deload is also going to be a full 2-3 month chill time into a cardio-endurance block.

[@mitchthomasfarquhar]

Incredible series. You’re a legend.

[@antoninoguarraci8779]

Always a pleasure to watch and listen Dr. Mike, I learn so goddam much !

[@dill_lift]

Love these videos. I've never had a coach and info like this really helps reaffirm my game-plan. Cheers!

[@zachkieri1185]

I’m not sure if this makes me wanna go to the gym or back to school (maybe both)

[@BaldOmniMan]

Peaking without maple syrup, honey, and raw garlic is sub optimal

[@DAatDA]

Bugez hasn't even begun to peak

[@knight_gabriel]

@@DAatDA before your strength peaks you gotta peak the mindset

[@TheJipino]

Maybe it's the toons you play man. It could very well be the toooons

[@kirkplacides7434]

Dr mike should be made a national treasure.

[@ramonkroes325]

Recently read and studied the RP book on strength principles and this just adds very nicely to it!

[@patricktrossbach668]

Let me tell you something, I haven't even begun to peak. And when I do peak, you'll know. Because I'm gonna peak so hard that everybody in Philadelphia's gonna feel it.

[@brianfox340]

Your "20 minute video" took me over an hour to get through so I could take proper notes.

[@molodoymolod]

Not even saying his first name this time, lol. Thanks for the content!

[@actorsheart3142]

Thank you so much

[@keithbobrosky6334]

Had to comment twice this is such good content!

[@nilo7727]

Excellent Dr Mike!!👏💪👌🤟😎

[@benjaminwetscher9614]

Thanks 🙏🏼 for this awesome series

[@Beats-By-Anthony]

Amazing overview!!!

[@Jeremie4159X]

Very good info, thanks for the video!

[@Rajvosa-wg7pu]

Thank you so much👌💪

[@alexpuente6482]

Thank you Sir!

[@michaelnovotny6680]

I fucking love this guy

[@garciaalan186]

“I haven’t even begun to peak…”

[@TheMylesMan]

Loved this series! I’m wondering what to do if I hit RPE 10 and/or plateau on one exercise, but not the others. Do I deload JUST that exercise? Do I deload everything? Or should that not happen/do I revise my programming?

[@seppuku2559]

Wait, you mean edging, right?

[@Chaosdude341]

Comments help the algorithm babyyy

[@Chaosdude341]

Dr. Mikhael pls I need to inject my swedish fish with 5 marijuana steroids. They're vegan fish tho so it's Paleo

[@jodmancousland5087]

Thumbnail shows him doing bicep curls. Something a powerlifter would pretty much never do lol.

[@benjamin3615]

I'm always peaking

[@vexatioustangerine8567]

best content on youtube

[@randomguy1236]

When should I hit my planned openers if I wished to do so

[@Maz272]

Gold

[@jbbe1851]

🔥🔥🔥

[@pedrosilveira836]

And what about if I have a next meet with about 1 month from my previous?

[@petersoar2886]

at risk of sounding like an idiot, could Smolov Jr. be considered a peaking program minus the 4th RPE 9 week? could it be made more effective with the addition of that 4th week??

[@jdizzzo7]

I want to run a last minute meet and have 7 weeks, including the taper/meet week. I just finished 2 strength blocks and am deloading this week. Should I run 3 wks strength, deload, then 2 wks peak + taper? Or flip the numbers?

[@nigeris10000]

So wait. Lets say i want to start doing powerlifting, no competing. So which workout should i use? Because powerlifting there are 3 apparently

[@ShengTooFlash]

There are 3 lifts. Squat, Bench and Deadlifts. 3 Phases in a normal powerlifting plan.Starting with hypertrophy (6-12 Reps) (getting more muscles), then a strength pase (3-6 reps)(using newly build muscle and adapting to higher load) and lastly (peaking).Peaking is kind of useless unless you are competing or you want just want to test your 1rep max. But your question is still not understandable,what exactly do you mean by three workouts.

[@a.3.l271]

Do you need backoff sets?

[@rafaelnacha1788]

Just Comment

[@everettengineers4603]

13:42 - *_Dr. Mike out of context pt 2_*

[@artocain]

I'm all about this cat-skinning activism.

[@Vence.]

Fuck yeah myan

[@gantoniopatriarca9520]

Weightlifting is a weird animal anyways. They have training halls at the competitions, because you cannot even take a day off from training the snatch and clean&jerk to perform the snatch and clean&jerk.
