@@Ant_Gifford thanks man!!!! I'm stoked i could help you. If I made a video like this, obviously my training schedule is important to me, too. People like us are why I made this video. But ya I forgot if I mentioned the weight of the bar but I'm pretty sure the barbell was only 10kg, and the stands only withstand like 120 or 140kg per their warning stickers. Not sure about the ez bar tho! Ya this gym was the best I've seen on a cruise ship, I was able to get ALL my workouts in, jerry rigging some of the exercises.

@@Jerryras57 nope....one morning while training my cardio for my triathlon, ALL the treadmills were taken. This was like, the first morning at sea when everyone wants to workout before they decide to drink all day instead. We did the two week cruise and it was exactly like this both week 1, and with the new week 2 crowd. Anyway, I asked the gym workers where I could do so. The deck it's on, on the outside, you can run around the perimeter of the ship in a U shaped fashion. You start on one end of the boat, run around to the other side, cut and trun 180degrees back around I was up early, so not a lot of people, but it is a common area where people will be walking around, lounging, or stepping in your way. It's NOT for running, but you CAN do it. So just staying careful on that to not hit anyone. That's worst case scenario and only happened once. Long story short, no but sort of.

@@rugbytimothy1315 you're welcome!! I did as well and had to go in blind. Luckily it worked out, but I wish I had a heads up on how I could adjust my split. You'll have everything you need, maybe Jerry rig a thing or two. Thanks for watching and commenting!!

Hahaha yoooo! What's up!!💪🏻💪🏻 miss you all

😘

Agreed!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for asking! Just uploaded new stuff. Been working hard to make the 2 year hair growth video. Its gonna be a good one!!

I did not! Not a single cut. And today is actually is two years to the day that I started growing it out. I'm currently putting together a video where I took a selfie every single day during year two!

@@notnickDPT did u use any products then?

@@not7618 nope. Only shampoo and conditioner. I've been trying research what I need for my hair and hair type, but I've only been using shampoo and conditioner.

Wish I knew what you said, but thanks for taking the time to comment!!!💪🏻😎 still growing my hair, it's about 12 inches now

About 4.5 or 5 inches, that's what happened since! Been taking a selfie everyday for year two. Keep an eye out for that video!

Hahah thanks man!! I feel like it's getting so much longer than this video now

@@notnickDPT no problem mate record them as well , your this video will soon have 1 M views stay safe

@@sakshamgupta7494 that's awesome of you to say man! Thanks a lot😎 I'll see you when I have my 1M

😂😂😂 I'm fixing up my tin foil hat AS WE SPEAK👀 that's sick tho dude!! Def do this man!

Correct! Please refer to the description where I state this was "set 1 of a 3x100"

He has a video on it, ya. I believe I put it in the description.

Great. This is how I plan to start leg day for about 8 to 12 weeks. Keep up the good work!

@@lampkin9287 good luck to you! It's tough, and significantly decreased my weight for my working sets during those leg days. So keep that in mind

I would say for your goal, no. My working sets after all three of these sets were dramatically reduced to about 60% of my usual weight. I recommend warming up lightly on an aerobic machine (I prefer the stair stepper for leg day), dynamically warm up, then do air squats building up weight gradually to your working sets. You can apply this to any day you're doing too.

@@notnickDPT I'm literally doing legs right now. Thank you, man.

@@AssembleAA haha sick! Perfect timing! No prob man💪🏻

If you have any energy left.

Yep. Only recorded one set of it.

@@notnickDPT I did one set of that and i was in need of wheel chair. Good job if you are still alive.

@@NutSac78 hahaha I feel that dude. I had the biggest quad pump ever afterwards. Could barely stand after the rest of the workout.

Make them out of concrete! I made a pair of 45s (well after this video, you can see them in my latest videos, but I still have concrete dumbbells on this video) for about 5.50$ FOR BOTH. I found a video on TH-cam of a guy doing it, bought the same mold (which was just a bucket), measured out the middle 2 inch PVC pipe to the same specs he did it, and boom. Within a few days of letting each one dry, I had new plates. Just adjust the amount of concrete and middle PVC length for 25s and less. I only made a pair of 45s tho. It's possible, but regular iron plates are super inflated. I do heavy deadlifts with them and they hold up strength.

@@notnickDPT yes i made some and i bought some before when the lockdown and they served me good

@@lovacc_1967 that's awesome. They sure over inflated prices of gym equipment when that happened. It's not even economical to buy a garage gym at those prices

Every human body is different, but generally hypertrophy is seen in rep ranges of 8 to 12. However, I had such a massive quad pump after these. It was insane. Most likely due to all the blood being pumped into the 300 total reps. It's hard to do for any level of lifter, but I sure saw hypertrophic results following it.

@@notnickDPT it would do more endurance than anything if youre a beginner or not used to this itll deff bring size but youd hve to continue to increase weight to see results after a certain point also thats way too many reps for your knees might not feel it in your back but if you were to start with youre not bracing right try contracting your lats when you squat and bring your knees forward a hair more to keep your back straighter

Hey thank you man!! I appreciate that

Hey thank you so much! That's kind of you, I appreciate it!💪🏻

Ayyy thanks dude!! I appreciate it! 💪🏻😁🤘🏻

100% not for beginners. Way too much volume on a compound movement. Lots a margin for error in form.

I suffer from exertion headaches more when I hold my breath while doing big sets like jump squats - make sure to breath and move through the workout fluidly, not jerking the weights about

I don't remember that, but I would need to train these more to be able to not fully stand up.

@@notnickDPT yea I just watched the video again last night to double check and it's confirmed. Sh#t is even worse like that. I'll do like 30 straight then try to wait a second up top but not all the way up and its not even really a rest cause it still burns like sh#t brotha! Lmao

@@martinez209 ya that would burn like crazy to do all 100 without locking out at the top of the rep haha. I may have knew that when I did this, but knew I wouldnt be able to do it yet.

@@notnickDPT haha...for sure maybe subconsciously you knew but consciously you thought "not possible!" Lol

Hahah ya they're hard man. Try with bodyweight maybe!

@@notnickDPT Yea I tried that also but Ryan says just to do the bar religiously until you make the 100 reps so I'm still trying. Lol

@@martinez209 oh I see! Well keep it up, the more you do it, the better you'll get at it!

@@notnickDPT will do same to you brotha!

I was definitely sore as heck after too, but I dont know if it was from all my squat sets after this. This by any means isnt an end all be all grower, whatever works best for you at the end of the day, is best. I too find better hypertrophic results from standard 8 to 12 rep sets. This was just a fun challenge, something different, good especially for plateaus, etc.

Yea it's more efficient to just put on heavier weights and less reps. Progressive overload is key to strength and size and the problem with doing lots of reps with light weights is that it's harder to get stronger.

@@AS-Stardust well this isnt the end all be all of muscle growth, just a fun challenge to add when you're plateauing. Or just feel like it.

I have no clue what you said

Dude thanks man!! Ya this was a fun challenge to do from him. I followed up with a leg day he did on another video. So tough after this warm up haha

As a kinesiology undergrad and a current doctor of physical therapy student, I can confidently say this is very appropriate to the trained individual. I would never have an untrained person perform this, but it is in no way bad so long as the trained individual performing the exercise maintains proper form throughout the exercise duration. Individual variability definitely plays a role, and what I find good for my anatomy, may be totally useless to yours and that's totally fine. You may find other forms of exercise that my body doesnt respond to, very useful.

Youre late. Jk hahahaha it's all good, I've been getting steady views from this ever since I posted it. So welcome to the club haha. And thanks too!

Thank you!

By a few dozen reps, it really starts to feel like it haha

Steady progression overall. Haven't tried this challenge in quite a while tho. I'd for sure do it again someday after an entire block of training. Kinda like a de load ish type thing between programs.

Fun way to challenge yourself. Always beneficial for your muscles to do new things. Stimulates growth when you do something you're not used to. If you're ever on a plateau, doing something crazy different could help you get past that and see progress!

I work them twice a week, I am cursed to have small calves😭 I do feel like my calves make me look like I don't do legs

So easy dear, just like you paid heavy attention on squats, now give heavy time for your calves ! U can do it !

Hahahah I bet. I only did it for like four weeks worth of squat days, i think. Maybe a little more, up to six. But it was mentally tough to keep doing😂 def recommend it sometime tho!!

Nice!!! Good for you for beginning your journey. Start out easy and work your way up. You dont have to push yourself like crazy yet. Your body isnt used to training yet, so I wouldn't recommend doing what I did until you're trained enough.

@@notnickDPT I have lifted for several years. I just wasn’t consistent. I was pushing very light weight.

Thank you! It really is a mental trainer, you're right.

Thanks man!!😎

Hahahah nice

Thanks man!! Ya, it was definitely tough. I did this months ago obviously, but it was great. Someday I'll do it again, if I have the courage hahaha

It's more for the challenge and not sport specific. Individual variability will play a huge role, but I found it to challenge my endurance and cardio, and also warmed my knees up well and felt a pump in my quads. Although it's not in the hypertrophic 8 to 12 rep range, it is a lot of blood being pumped into the quads and glutes. So I would say it's more endurance and hypertrophy focused. It's definitely difficult, and only really fits into someone's put hair on my chest program.

@@notnickDPT hypertrophic has nothing to do with 8-12 reps...man the internet needs to reboot already 🥴

@@TheBaldBeast bruh😂 I have my degree in this and I am a pt student. Hypertrophy rep range is 8 to 12 reps and that is backed by research

@@notnickDPT Your vocabulary is proof enough I'd say 🤣 Hint, your muscles can't count.

Hypertrophic ranges between 8 and 30 in my experience , it’s all about time under tension , I take nearly 6 seconds to complete a rep without locking out knees , 100 reps with just the bar does cause a burn but it’s not a cardio exercise and good warmup

Heck ya!! Let me know how it goes!

Ya no problem man! It's from dicks sporting goods. I think it's their brand of stuff, it's called fitness gear, and it's their bench press actually. I was about to buy a half rack plus an adjustable bench, but then saw this rack next to it. It was made to be just a bench, but you can easily most the hooks and safeties to the other side for a miniature half rack. It was cheaper than the half rack, came with an attached bench, and still could be used as a half rack. I've have no issues using the other side as a rack.

You bring up a good point man. No kidding, because while I felt more of a quad pump than I ever had doing barbell squats, it also didn't fatigue my back at all either. Obviously a far less load being put on it, which is great.

@@notnickDPT yup it’s a gooder

Ryan humiston has more bro science. It feels more worked because of muscle endurance training therefore you muscles will start burning.

I can attest!
