Too many people don't realize that HEAVY is relative to the person. Also, there is a HUUUUUGE bro-science myth around "always adding weight each set". If you can ALWAYS add weight, then the majority of your sets are most likely trash because you are lifting too light. If that sounds like you.. make sure you watch until the very end of the video because I explain how to keep lifting heavy as your muscles begin to fatigue.

exactly, light and heavy weights are relative to each person, is more about the total reps you can do with the weight you choose

I believe the best way to combine light and heavy weights is to initially start light to really nail down that execution and create a strong mind muscle connection. After that, work on heavier weights and more explosive contractions on the positive.

Great info as always. Been lifting for years and kept doing lighter weight and high reps. Got some gains from it but noticed I have not changed in a couple months. Started lifting heavy and noticed im sore right away instead of experiencing DOMS from the lighter weight. Went up 6 pounds in lean body mass over 2 months. This video just proved my theory right> Thank you Scott.

It’s a very fine line when trying to do both. I know my strength might not increase like it would for a person in caloric surplus but so far I’ve lost 100 pounds. I’m tracking my progress on KZbin in hopes I can encourage someone else who is overweight. You have been my favorite KZbin trainer from day one and really enjoy your videos. God Bless brother.

When I workout, I do like this, (Take dumbbell press as an example). I take weight X and aim for 3 x 9. When I can do 3 x 9, I go for 3 x 10. When I can do 3 x 10, I aim for 3 x 11. And so on until I can do 3 x 12. When I can do 3 x 12, I switch back to 3 x 9, but now with a weight X + 5. (My dumbbells increase in 5 pound intervals) And I repeat the cycle. This way, I have been managing to increase weights every month or so. Right or wrong? (PS I am a newbie, and I realise that you get stronger quickly in the beginning and that your increases slow down after a while)

I train this same way. I tried out this working every set to failure but i just couldn't recover from it by the time my next workout for that same musclegroup. I was so sore that it would take whole week to recover. I lost strenght also in the process and started to see negative gains. It is just too brutal for me and drove my body in to overtrained state.

Dude don't worry, keep going. It takes time to build muscle. You're overloading, so you'll be fine. Plus, it doesn't really matter in which rep range you work with, unless its like 1-2RM-which is more for strength training only. As long as you're going full out, and causing muscle damage, eating right, you'll see gains. Just a time thing.
@thenew4559
@thenew4559 5 жыл бұрын
I train this way for a few of the lifts that I can't progress as fast on, such as the barbell bicep curl. It is easier than increasing the weight by 5 or 10 pounds, but yet still maintains the goal of progressive overload. As long as you are always focused on increasing progressive overload you should be good, and this is one of the ways to do so. In terms of weight always push yourself to the max (as long as you can still maintain good form/range of motion).

I love your videos and they are always informative and positive. I'd just like to point out that many powerlifters (elite and novice) do high rep ranges as well. It's more about the structure and the form than it is the rep ranges and I think the disparity is often exaggerated. Your point is still mostly true, but it is not a hard and fast rule. Cheers!

I know there's no actual proof about warm up sets being necessary, but I've been thoroughly enjoying doing pyramid sets lately. I'll take a rep range, ex 8 reps, and work my way up to a working set for that certain day. 8 for 20, 8 for 30, etc. Until I get to a weight I can't get for the full 8, back down 5/10 pounds and do my work sets. Nice video, Scott. - Chris J.

Feel like I need to lift way heavier to get the kind of muscle I’d like but can’t curl over it atm 🤷🏻‍♂️ how do you think it’s best to get around that?

Thanks just newly became a fan, love the videos!
@ScottHermanFitness
@ScottHermanFitness 7 жыл бұрын
Actually, light weight training for cutting is kind of a myth.. it's good to do some heavy training while cutting to maintain as much muscle and strength as possible. Cutting is the perfect time to mix both - maybe do some exercises of 5-8 reps (notably compounds), and some exercises with 10-12 reps, even up to 15 reps.

It's interesting that 2 videos on this subject appear in my feed at the same time. The picture fit channel did a shorter video looking at studies done on both trained and untrained individuals. It showed that you can gain muscle but you'd probably be gaining different types. Well worth a5 min watch. Basic conclusion was the same, train for you goals, strength = heavy weights, endurance = light weights, muscle building = both.

You shouldn't fail on every set. Going to failure should be something you use sparingly, only on probably on set every other workout.

openly discussing other people and channels on KZbin is a bit taboo unless you are specifically calling out their bullshit in your video. The fact that Scott doesn't talk about Jeff probably means that he doesn't see anything particularly dangerous about anything Jeff is teaching, therefore has no need to mention him. When KZbinrs start talking about eachother is when a lot of unnecessary bullshit gets stahhhted and Scott is too smart for that.

Great video. It's nice to understand the biomechanics behind the different types of lifting regiments. Thanks! That said, I have a question: I'm just getting back into lifting after a few shoulder surgeries (and overall laziness). Right now, I am using light weight-high reps to condition my muscles (and gain some endurance) before eventually moving back into a muscle building phase. So I'm currently doing 12-15 reps. Is it better to pick a weight that I can get 15, 12, 8, 8 to start and stay at the same weight until I can do 15,15,15,15 - then move up weight? Or is it better to pick a weight that I can start off in the 12-15 rep range for all sets?

I would pick a weight where you can hit at least 10 reps with every set, and work on improving it for that endurance aspect.

A lot of valuable information in this video and definitely worth more than one viewing. Question though: when you fail due to fatigue on the last rep and pause for 10seconds does it disengage the muscle activation or is that a myth?

Nice video! I use light weights for exactly these purposes. To do crossfit like workouts, to pump some fluid into the muscle before the main heavy workout and to add volume in heavy workouts. I think the volume effect of lower weights should not be neglected. Solely doing 3x5-8 reps doesn’t suffice for most athletes to accumulate enough volume per muscle group.

Sticking in that 5-8 rep range can be good for muscle building, but usually you want a handfull of exercises that go beyond that rep range as well.

Hey SCOTT! Can you explain the difference between strength building and muscle building exercises. Aren't you still building muscle when increasing your strength. Will my body have a drastic difference when doing one or the other. This video really made me curious about that. I didn't even know about the different categories of bodybuilding.
@ScottHermanFitness
@ScottHermanFitness 7 жыл бұрын
Strength and muscle aren't always directly paired. They can be, but not always. For example, you can increase your bench press strength without actually seeing massive size improvements if you are only training in that 1-7 rep range. Similarly, if you are only training in the 8-10 or 10-12 rep range, and focusing on those slow, controlled reps, you will gain size through muscle breakdown, but may not increase strength much or at all. Muscle breakdown may not happen with strength training, or not enough. In the beginning you will probably see both inter-twined, but then it will depend on the main focus of your training as to what you see the most of.

Could you get a good workout for muscle building by doing hybrid training such as mixing lights high reps and heavier and low reps, eg; 40-30 light weight, 15-10 for heavier weights in a triangle pyramid/buntout system.. Using the light weights prefatique the muscle.. Thanks for you insight..
