I like the way Kai green explained hypertrophy it’s pretty simple.. keep the muscle under tension and we want a contraction followed by a stretch and it’s all under tension and a compete range of motion. Then it’s protein, sleep and fasted cardio for striping fat. It’s not that hard.
You need to put 5 keys, theres one very important missing, quality of sleep / Rest days. Without proper rest you can do all of that you wont grow as you think. The rest is on the money! :D
Goes without saying! Biggest issue they have with sleep is staying up too long in their phones which is why we check their phones every time they come into the gym.
What if i keep the same calorie count with a 300g surplus + creatine? Im 54 kg and 36. My Dr said I can go up to 65 for my BMI. im happy to be strong and functional. Im not trying to be a mass monster.
@@tomlewis8522 Ha ha ha! Im not lookin for any new symptoms. I just want to achieve the health benefits of havin the correct lean mass. Blood sugar regulation, posture and strength. Guys get carried away. Im 1.65 cm height.
11.000 calories a day sounds absolutely insane, expensive and exhausting. I count my stars that my current maintance level is at 2100. Bless those genetics. Very informative video btw. Loved the part about every time you go to the gym, check your log and then beat it. It gets fun if you make a game out of it, your own little contest. This advice can be followed by anyone regardless of being for sports purpose or bodybuilding. Same principle.
True. Yep, those few boys on that many calories hate food. But it only lasts a few years in their teens. The same player who gained on 11k calories now gains on 5000 and he’s 21, k so it slows right down.
@@leaguefitacademy Understandable. I would hate food too on 11k kcal. Many of us are not foodies and even for foodies it's mostly the sweets, chips and fast food they indulge anyway. Ah, of course, I'm a 35 year old geezer. I bet my maintance level was higher too in my teens playing football/soccer. Now I just love going to the gym and learning from others doing the same and that have mastered the same. Subscribed and liked. Keep it up.
I have a question, 8:15, you mention failing 1 rep before or 1 rep after the set amount of reps. However is I do say 4 sets on dumbell shoulder press for example, I would use 37.5kg, the fist set I can squeeze 10 reps, the second set I can squeeze maybe another 10, 3rd set I am struggling to reach the 10 reps but do maybe 8 reps, and the last set I fail on the 7th rep, so I drop the weight to 32.5kg immediately and continue straight away by squeezing another 3 or 4 reps out. Would this be considered what you are talking about or can you give me some guidance on this... as if I tried to lift say the 40kg and do my sets of 10, I would only do 1 good set before starting to fail on my other sets and this would then run into muscle endurance rather than attempting to actually go to technical failure. Can you clear this up for me please.
Overall great advice, although volume is more practically defined and calculated as number of sets per muscle group per week. As opposed to total tonnage as suggested here with reps x sets x load. This is due to the fact that sets of 5 produce the same muscle gains as sets of 30 as long as intensity and volume ( sets/muscle/week) are the same. Despite having vastly different tonnages as described in this video.
@@leaguefitacademy I came across your video last night and thought it was amazing, keep up the great work. Hopefully the lads take on board your knowledge and it helps them out, not only for their footy life but for a healthy lifestyle in general 👍
dont know why you asume every session you feel like 10/10. One day I can bench 70kg comfortably, next session i struggle with 65 🤷♂️ Its like a never ending cycle, cant add more weight
Great video coach .. Hope you do more of these sort of videos........ Quick question, see for compound movements should i be doing low reps with heavy weights ?.. Im not worried about strength tho , i just want to be bigger ?
That’s different for every individual. Age, sex, total training volume and your actual ‘training age’ all factor in. As a VERY general rule of thumb your calorie surplus should have the scales moving between 200-400g per week.
In 20 years of training people have probably only had maybe 1 or 2 people who didn’t rest enough. The vast majority of people don’t do enough, not the other way around. Although I will add a lot of people now take their phones to bed and even though they are ‘in bed’ for 8 hours they are only getting 6.5 hours sleep. That’s increasingly becoming an issue.
Kid is eating 8k calories? There is something wrong. No human should be eating that much daily to put on muscle. Most likely is kid is eating inefficient types of calories or has a parasite. Coach didnt even talk about frequency or macro/micro nutrients. Vitamin and minerals is one of the biggest factors in putting on muscle
Also. Need to be sure the boys don't overtrain and risk injury. Athletes tend to do too much because they are not efficient with training and don't recover well.
When one goes for trials, they guide one into testing and one’s buddy turns and says ‘I’m not passing this.’ Apparently young players could get away by stopping once through…. benefits for a long time afterwards.
and cardio bro trust, no mattter how much hours u lift a day n hours u sleep, lifting at most mf burns only 300 calories and with a surplus of 300 to mofos adding 500+ weekly, the calories fr gon add up into ur potbelly
This is excellent for these lads. Wish we had this advice when we were kids
That’s the aim, to give others what I wish we had at that age 👍
straight to the point advice.
This is incredible. Turning them into fine tuned machines from young.
This is honestly the best video on TH-cam. I’ve watched the net on gaining size and this is the clearest and so simple. Well done
So relatable when he goes to write exhaustion and stops halfway and pulls his phone out and the trainer says “yeah that’s why I wasn’t writing” 😂
Im a body builder in nz! Kids are very lucky to have this straight shooter at a young age! Very well presented!

Great advice for these kids. I remember being 16 having no idea about the gym and hearing so much of what I now know is misinformation
Thank you! Same, that’s why we built this place
Very good video! I wish I had this when i started training
You and me both!

Going to failure on every set isn’t good and can be contradicting to growth due to recovery. Does coach know about RIR?
Great Video coach 👍
I just want to add REST (good night sleep)
And also a jab to help recover
@@RobertK-d6z I think at that age (youth), recovery is naturally quite good given diet and rest is good enough
Sleep/rest is important too
Which I had this lecture when I was younger

@@CaneSugarCane no, if you csnt understand the question then you definately must not do any training, so why ask.

Powerlfting and protein.
What app do you use?
Does that make sense
Train to technical failure and then don't train to failure so what is it to be
dont know why you asume every session you feel like 10/10.
One day I can bench 70kg comfortably, next session i struggle with 65 🤷♂️
Its like a never ending cycle, cant add more weight
Great video coach ..
Hope you do more of these sort of videos........
Quick question, see for compound movements should i be doing low reps with heavy weights ?..
Im not worried about strength tho , i just want to be bigger ?
Thanks mate, no, if your not looking particularly for strength somewhere in the 8-12 range is good 👍
How much weight do I gain a week or month though?
That’s different for every individual. Age, sex, total training volume and your actual ‘training age’ all factor in. As a VERY general rule of thumb your calorie surplus should have the scales moving between 200-400g per week.
Does that make sense?
If you are training for a sport, why wouldn't you want to train primarily for strength instead of size? You will still grow training for strength.
Of course there’s a time and a place for direct strength work, but this talk was about hypertrophy 👍
Exactly @@leaguefitacademy
How do you spell that lol
9-10k calories a day is insane. Dude will spend most of his day eating lol
He does, and complains about too, but hey it works!
And develop a big pot belly too.
@@Greg-il3lq actually no, he is currently sub 10%.
Hard to believe, the biggest bodybuilders eat around 7-8k

You hit the nail on head. But people being people don’t need to be told as much as they need to be reminded.
What about rest
In 20 years of training people have probably only had maybe 1 or 2 people who didn’t rest enough.

@@leaguefitacademy thanks for the reply.
Testosterone and deca will sort this issue out
In order to build size over a long period of time you don't have to train to failure on every set. That's an old way of thinking.
Nonsense
@@Dad-Gad Every scientific study on hypertrophy agrees with me. Please prove me wrong. I'll wait.
Technical failure. As in could do 15 pull ups but the last 5 are trash. So u do 10
