    Progressive overload is key man... People would be surprised how fast you gain strength adding a couple pounds and a couple reps every week.

    • @donaldkasper8346
      @donaldkasper8346 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You don't have the wts at a gym to add a couple pounds. Maybe you can find the 2.5lb wts to add 5 lbs, but commonly you have 5 and 10lb smaller wts around or built into the machines, so you move up 10 or 20 lbs at a time. That is not every week unless you are just introduced to a lift type and are moving up cautiously from 5 pounds.

    Progressive overload is not just weight, reps, volume.
    Don’t forget progressive overload w skill and difficulty, as well as tempos.

  • @46FreddieMercury91
    @46FreddieMercury91 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Weight used, intensity, volume and time under tension are all correlated. Increase one and something changes.
    The fact is most folks simply don't train hard enough, nor do they keep a record of their workouts, weight used, reps etc

  • @follower8815
    @follower8815 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I have a question. Say target rep range is 8-12. Set 1 you hit 12. But the other sets you might get 11 or 10... so should I increase the weight when all my sets are solid 12’s? Or should I only judge it based on the first set?

    • @stevesteve7354
      @stevesteve7354 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well I’m not entirely sure, and I wonder the same myself, but , I you increase the weight where your first set is about 10 and the next sets are 8 -9 then your still getting that 8-12 rep range. But honestly that’s just my take on it I have no idea.

    • @TaxEvasi0n
      @TaxEvasi0n 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Increase when you get perfect 12s.

    • @nathanamos9945
      @nathanamos9945 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      This double progression seems to be a pretty common way of progressing. Let's say your program says 8-12 reps. Once you hit 12 on all your sets add weight to the bar and start over at 8 reps then work your way up to all 12 reps again.

    • @SniffingOutPharisees-DanielP
      @SniffingOutPharisees-DanielP 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Ik this is old but What I do is I find my median rep range.
      So let’s say you did 3 sets.
      First set you got 12 reps, then 11 and 10.
      You would add 12+11+10=33 reps in total.
      You take your total reps, in this case 33, and you divide by how many number of sets you did, in this case 3 sets.
      So 33 reps divided by 3 sets would be 11. 11 reps would be your median range. Once you can do 11 solid reps for each set, increase your reps to 12.

    I’ve always progressively overloaded from set to set. Usually like 5-4-3-2 or 8-6-4-2. But a 4x5’s at like 70-80% is wayyyyyyy harder. Squatting 225 that many times isn’t fun.

      @@follower8815 I would definitely not increase the weight if you’re aiming for 12 reps every set. But going 12-11-10-9 and adding 5-10lbs every set should be good if you’re going for volume. But adding weight each set but leaving the reps the same just sounds like the weight isn’t heavy enough.

    • @follower8815

      @@tvst7856 I mean for progressive overload. You increase reps before increasing weight. And say the rep range is 8-12. And then you finally get to 12 so you add weight to make it 8 reps. But do you add weight when ALL the sets can be done with 12 reps or just the first set?

      @@follower8815 you add weight once you can achieve 12 reps on all your sets. So if you get 12,11,10,9, you do not add weight, you stay on the same weight until you get 12,12,12,12.

    Technically speaking, if you train to failure, you’re doing the most that the body can do for that movement and weight so you don’t need to track workouts just train to failure.

    Fitness fanatic if you never take a day off? False. I work out every day, bench every day, push more on strong days as every day is not the same. There is no such thing as overtraining unless you are just injured. 24 hours is enough recovery unless you are out of shape, and then if so after the workout take a nap to recover. Literally the recovery between sets is by definition all the recovery you need to work out, but if you wait a day can do somewhat more wt lifting. This is totally different from power lifters in competition that get injured with each workout and need a week to recover, those at say 315lb and higher. Those whose lifting will cause them arthritis problems when they are older.
