Will Lifting Weights Make You SLOWER?!

[@orvixza5945]

I am 14 and training as a wing for rugby, I have always been the smallest guy and so I’ve been training really hard at the gym, my dad thinks that this is damaging my speed training even tho I’m carrying on with my speed training, he has no evidence of this as my times have not got worse over these few months. This is the most helpful video and I really recommend it

certainly doing biceps curls reduced my wrist flexibility and thus the strike power of racket in badminton but I didn't stop doing it, I modified the frequency, recovery and intensity.

[@newkiller4457]

Ngl, I used to think the reason why I don't run as fast as I used to (although my cardio does stay the same)was because I had too much muscles, but it was more than just my muscles, but it was the fact that I realized I've gained a lot more weight to maintain more muscle + water+ more fat. I'd say I'd focus in losing some weight to not make myself any slower now as I realized what the problem was.

[@GarageStrength]

That's awesome you found us thank you 💪 If you're interested we actually have a video on strength training for swimming you can check out 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnannaKAjth7fM0 | Also trunk stability refers to having upright body and holding a stable torso during athletic movement. Hope this helps 💪

Thanks so much for the support Rahul!

[@OfficialZaidok]

I have a question, If your a distance runner is doing upper body/lower body about every day going to make it harder to run.

[@AndrewAvenaim]

So should we do sprints also before the strength training like 10 to 20 yard sprints

[@erchguyj1234]

Do u recommend jumping lunges for sprinting? And what tips must we look out for

[@rakaaswandaputroutomo2822]

Sir, can i build strength in a calorie deficit?

[@GarageStrength]

Explosive lifting, good rest periods between sets. Focus on moving exercises fast and having a high-intensity lift once a week. Thank you for the question 💪

[@michaeldillard1408]

I like lifting explosively

[@lanarhoades6619]

Should you do the speed sork and the strength work in the same session? Or is it bettet to do a session of speed first and then rest and eat and after that do strength?

[@GarageStrength]

Speed then strength if in same session.

[@Mohamed-sr7id]

I play soccer and dont want to bulk up but i want to lift and get strong, what could i do to be strong and fast.

[@GarageStrength]

Deep squats, single leg squats, deep pistol squats... Full depth olympic lifts will also improve your sport. Hope this helps 👍

[@Mohamed-sr7id]

Garage Strength thanks 🙏

[@GarageStrength]

@@Mohamed-sr7id No problem 👍

[@stray2726]

What about the sets and reps?

[@michael6357]

Damn bro can u just answer the question

[@abcdefgh4404]

Weight training does make you slower on sports, increase weight (muscle). On the other hand calisthenics makes you strong, no bulk, ripped, and fast. Never will touch weight plates again.

[@switchback3638]

Every college to professional sports team has a strength and conditioning program. Weights can make you fast if you know what youre doing. Strength and explosiveness are similar systems, training one helps the other

[@HeartlessKnave]

Believe what you want but facts are facts. Increasing myofibrillar hypertrophy will increase muscle density without increasing size/mass too much and will make you faster by being able to move your bodyweight easier since it is piss light in comparison afterward. Heavy weight to the point of overcoming isometrics will cause more motor units to engage which will increase strength without adding size due to more muscle fibers being put to work. With strength training there is a point of diminishing returns yes, but the same is true for calisthenics, after a point it will also create sarcoplasmic hypertrophy rather than myofibrillar or other forms of adaptation, and sarcoplasm will increase muscle size and subsequently increase mass/weight without adding much in strength (sarcoplasm has other benefits however). Then there is also the process of increasing tendon strength/elasticity to increase strength and reduce injury using things like plyometrics/ballistic training and eccentric exercises/overloading, which is difficult to do with just calisthenics. You don't know what you are talking about so please stop. Do what you will with never touching a weight again, but others deserve a more educated and informed position supported with the actual facts of resistance training for muscle growth/adaptation.

Excuse to skip legs lol 😂
