I Learned about Pavel when reading about GTG back in 2014. I could barely do 1 handstand pushup and I began doing 1 every hour on the hour for 5-7 hours...after a couple of weeks I could do 2,3 and so on and ended with 10 handstand pushups just over 4 weeks. I use this technique to help my military students get better at pushups or pull-ups. Love it. Thank you Pavel!
45:57 The training to failure misconception 47:55 Superiority of USSR training & Universality of principle based training: applicability to powerlifting and calisthenics. 49:00 Maximal hypertrophy, lots of 5 & 6 reps sets, with 60-70% 1RM (5@6-10RIR, 6@5-9RIR), and contracted rest periods (
kettlebell swing and deadlift are both great for longetivity. Great i will always remember this advice and pass it onto anyone that wants a good long strong healthy life. Thanks again for this interview you have with pavel.
The idea of more sets with perfect form makes great sense. Its hard to put the ego to the side and mentally accept lifting with control rather than raw will
pavels awesome more sets less reps. This will help me heaps. I am self taught from reading and wathching pavels Enter the kettlebell.I have restarted my kettlebell training and your interview with pavel has reminded me the importance of my sets and reps. Grip. Tight abs and Butt is also true for extra reps and power. Awesome interview thanks from Darwin.Australia.
Such an amazing interview but the last 10 minutes were extra special. Pavel is not only a very gifted man but he is also obviously a quite virtuous one as well. I was very impressed by his humility & wisdom.
Pavel was much more congenial than I expected. Greatest quote, “Oversharing is one of the problems of the modern world.” I like it that Pavel shared so much in this podcast. He is famous for turning what most experts would share in paragraph into a fluffy $26 book. He must be a millionaire many times over. Happy for him.
i could do a max of 15 pushups, then i did the greasing the groove technique, so i did 5 pushups at normal speed, and i did about 4-5 sets through out the day with about a 2 hour gap in between sets. I was able to increase my max to 25 pushups after 3 weeks, its an amazing technique that doesn't even tire you out.
i do a different method as im trying to get back to my 92 pushups again. right now i can do about 85 push ups. what i do is one set as fast as possible in a explosive manner and get my 85 reps then i do 7 sets of 20-33 reps depending on how fresh i feel. i do this on tuseday and friday. i went from just 60 pushups to 85 in a matter of weeks. now im at 85 though i plateaued for a while and took a reduced workout for recvery whilst still greasing the groove. my goal is to pass my 92 pushups of pain and get to 100. once i reach 100 then i will add 10lbs on a vest and start back at 60 even if i can do more. then build back up again. i feel if i can get 100 push ups with a 10lb then i will be a bad ass lol. one thing i will say is it becomes a matter of cardio once you pass just about 50 reps and the pain really kicks in to overdrive. oh and before you do that first all out demanding set warm your shoulders up as you will not be able to explode or just get injured.
Pavel mentioned his playlist is 80s HeavyMetal - ACCEPT, Maiden, Saxon. . On top of the wealth of knowledge with training , this man is a win in my book. Don't mind me - just strolling by after hearing him on Rogan's podcast. .
This guy is a master. The idea of greasing the groove, doing something every you walk past a bar or kettle bell. This works so well to anyones fitness.
For what? What's the point of just getting stronger without size. Look at him, he looks like a skinny high school teacher. Maybe he can bench press 350-400 pounds but isn't that pretty pointless, and has no carry over to real life?
Pavel is extremely clear and persuasive. I haven’t listened to a lot of strength trainers, but Pavel is by far my biggest inspiration at the moment. Today I do 60 swings (standard weight) and 100 squats (at light weight) based on his philosophy of volume and functional training.
32:00 - I never thought about it like this, but for a while I had a pull-up bar in the middle of my place and used to do a few every time I walked by and I was able to do way more than now. Interesting.
The magnificent seven is also my favorite movie! I love that each of the seven has a different personality, a different set of character traits (negative & positive) The idea of bravery, personal sacrifice, teamwork, depending on each other to accomplish a shared goal - for good to concrete evil & rescue the oppressed. It's a great demonstration of masculinity, encouraging each other in bravery, to overcome personal fears, to selflessly bless & protect others.
Hydrogen ions and lactic acid are not identical but their effects will be the same. Acids produce free hydrogen ions in water (blood). So lactic acid will produce hydrogen ions. It's talked about at 01:04:00.
I can't stand how much Tim fumbles around for words. He's a smart dude... Just take an extra second to figure it out instead of spitting out the beginning of 6 different words before finding the right one... On the other hand I could listen to Pavel all day.
Same same when it came to swimming for me. Total Immersion had exactly the same effect on my love of moving through the water. Around the same decade too.
Well it's been 4 years, but for the hard of hearing, deaf, or non-english speaking people who may still look for it, there's a transcript on Tim's website : tim.blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/55-pavel-tsatsouline.pdf There are transcripts for all the episodes.
I got my son a pull up bar,one rule= do one strict pull up all the way up chest touch bar, pause lower,has to do one every time he walks passed the bar no exceptions, it's outside his bedroom door,now he is ripped like Bruce Lee and can do 58 strict
mattstazza Thats funny you mentioned Ido because i have been following connor mcgregor ufc and he got Ido to teach him fluid body movements. Yes Ido is an incredible master of body movements for sure and strength for longevity.
Reminds me Arnold's training in Germany where he had to pace himself by not going to failure to early... they expected him to train all day in the military
My experience with GTG - I used to be able to do 10 HSPU on the floor with ease at a bodyweight of 77KG, 15 when pushing to limit, and around 6 full ROM. around ten years ago. Over the years injuries and two big shoulder injuries didn't allow me to do them and recently it's been hard to get them back. within 3 weeks of greasing the groove I went from 1 on my warmup (harder now weighing 85kg) to doing sets of 5. Not much and haven't tested max but will go till I reach 7-8 then start doing FULL ROM. I find also if I eat a big meal of carbs such as pasta I don't get a crash, assuming that my muscle is constantly trying to absorb glucose to refuel.
@@incorectulpolitic pushups every time I went to the bathroom at work or every time I went to get a drink in the kitchen at home etc. Not to failure, just enough to feel that you're getting close to failure. Maybe 6 reps before. Did same with pull-ups and went from 6-8 to 12-15 within a month
I do 20 push ups at a time. Every hour of the day. For around 15 Sets a day. Gonna start implementing 5 pull ups and 20 sit ups as well, every hour a day for 15 Sets.
@Conspiracies by Hans 4 Come on man, sheep can't use the internets, don't be a douche Rogan kinda brought me here too, I'm interested to see how this lines up against Jeff Cavaliere's strength concepts.... baaaaa
Pavel is the man - true performance training scientist right here! Strength and health first...all of the meatheads our there who look like they should be wearing a Bane mask are ‘strongly’ misguided! (Ego lifting) P.S. love how he reads a newspaper in the AM vs. going on the Internet, such a contrarian.
Surprised he didn't mention jaw clenching to increase power, along with glutes and abs. As a ground fighter you're not always in a position where an ab or glute squeeze is possible, but I've increased my power tremendously by learning to clench my jaw when necessary and feeling the power migrate to the whole body just as he described.
*Pavels hypothesis on the science behind hypertrophy is EXACTLY WHAT INMATES DO IN PRISON TO GET BIG AS FUCK, I have a bunch of mechanic friends to take care of my bikes and some of them are huge inmates* They do it every other day for each muscle group, but they do 2-3 sessions a day, and these guys eat a minimum of a kilo of carbs a day, that's the macro. They do an exercise they can do 10-30 reps with non stop before failure, resting more than a second between reps in a set DOES NOT COUNT, perfect form. They do half their maximum reps on each set which is the *rep goal*, 1-2 minutes between sets, they keep doing sets until they REACH THAT SET where they fail before reaching that rep goal. Every 3-4 weeks they would do a set to failure to see if they have increased their max reps. Then they would set the new *rep goal* per set based on that new max. They train each body part every other day, so basically upper body pressing, upper body pulling, and pistol squats. However they do those squats only twice a week. Squats are harder to recover from because we humans walk around all day everyday, legs get minimal rest. Exercises they use are push up variations(diamond push ups, archer push ups, one arm push up feet shoulder width, one arm one leg push ups, deep handstand push ups, archer handstand push ups and I have heard some can also do one arm deep handstand push ups).... And obviously, the feet elevated variations of all push up variations to fail before reaching 50 nonstop reps. For pulling they do kipping pull ups, strict pull ups, archer pull ups, negative one arm pull ups, one arm pull ups...... Guys I know have 21 inch arms with flat abs, everyone is 250-260lbs. Now, according to them, there are lots of guys who got 20 inch guns from one arm push ups alone, also there are lots of them who can do one arm pull ups and one arm one leg push ups for 50+ reps but their arms are below 20 inches. According to them everything depends upon how heavy some one is, a 270lbs guy who can do 25 pull ups will be far more ripped and jacked than the guy who is 160lbs and can do 50 pull ups... But yeah, volume is key, volume is money, I have been doing this with pronated dips and chin ups and put on 5lbs of lean mass in 4 weeks..... *THATS A LOT* Like Pavel says, forget about the number of sets, just keep doing them, recover between sessions, you will get big if you eat enough.
Tim, this guy is a Bad Ass, I have been a security officer in a past life. I have worked with some of the most bad ass marines in the world and this group you speak of the "Spetnaz" is serous and highly regarded as some of the best in the world. Way to go on getting this guy on your show. 🏳🏳🚫Don't have him practice any moves on you bro!! It's not like the UFC, there is no option to tap out!!🛇🏳🏳 🍻Cheers to bring on the deadliest guest on your show🍻
Tim Lazenby it's also documented that deer, gazelle etc will shake after huge adrenaline dump following flight in face of life threatening predator chase
Can super setting different muscle groups be effectively used in conjunction with the grease-the-groove technique? For instance, does it work do a set of push ups immediately followed by a set of pull ups, then rest for 15 minutes before repeating multiple times? Or, should only single sets be used?
boxerfencer it works tho. He really focuses on technique. I can attest to his training. It’s a bit of a what the F**** factor. Because you go for a 2 or 1 RM and it’s far exceeding of expectations.

@golden child I was doing 50 rep sets of finger pushups as a 7 year old. Weakling.
@golden child
Knuckle ups are easy.
BroToPro how you warm up your shoulder?
The segment about what Americans and Soviets can learn from each other was very refreshing. I loved Pavel's take on this without using any hyperbole
Pavel mentioned his playlist is 80s HeavyMetal - ACCEPT, Maiden, Saxon. .
On top of the wealth of knowledge with training , this man is a win in my book.
Don't mind me - just strolling by after hearing him on Rogan's podcast. .
Great interview all around, but the best part starts with the question at 1:42:56. Pavel's response is so well rounded and wise.
This guy is a master. The idea of greasing the groove, doing something every you walk past a bar or kettle bell. This works so well to anyones fitness.
For what? What's the point of just getting stronger without size. Look at him, he looks like a skinny high school teacher. Maybe he can bench press 350-400 pounds but isn't that pretty pointless, and has no carry over to real life?
@@bigbaba4542 To be able to lift things, have endurance, and age well. That has always been the purpose of strength.
Easily one of the best podcast ever. Period.
Squeezing your fist for the spill over tension thing had me sold.
very wise words about what americans can learn from other cultures. I needed to hear that. Thanks Tim and Pavel
this pavel guy is amazing this stretching advice was just spot on he is indeed the man
You knew this shit was going to be intense when Tim asked to tell him about his breakfast and Pavel replied, “Coffee”.
This is great. I'm going to have to relisten to get all the great information. But can't wait to begin white knuckling and flexing the core.
Dude, this episode is a diamond cut, if you don't watch it, you're missing out on extremely valuable information. Kudos to Tim and Pavel for sharing

Such a Technical Podcast. Would have loved to see Pavel give video examples of some of these movements
I got my son a pull up bar,one rule= do one strict pull up all the way up chest touch bar, pause lower,has to do one every time he walks passed the bar no exceptions, it's outside his bedroom door,now he is ripped like Bruce Lee and can do 58 strict

Totally new to this world...this is fascinating. *order grippers from Ironmind*
Brilliant man.
My experience with GTG - I used to be able to do 10 HSPU on the floor with ease at a bodyweight of 77KG, 15 when pushing to limit, and around 6 full ROM. around ten years ago. Over the years injuries and two big shoulder injuries didn't allow me to do them and recently it's been hard to get them back. within 3 weeks of greasing the groove I went from 1 on my warmup (harder now weighing 85kg) to doing sets of 5. Not much and haven't tested max but will go till I reach 7-8 then start doing FULL ROM.
I find also if I eat a big meal of carbs such as pasta I don't get a crash, assuming that my muscle is constantly trying to absorb glucose to refuel.
Mehmetron how many it is now ?
Increased my pushups from failing at 20 to knocking out 30 well before failure within a week. Crazy.
What was your program? How did you do it?
@@incorectulpolitic pushups every time I went to the bathroom at work or every time I went to get a drink in the kitchen at home etc. Not to failure, just enough to feel that you're getting close to failure. Maybe 6 reps before. Did same with pull-ups and went from 6-8 to 12-15 within a month

such great lessons - thank you!
Lots of great information here.
Excellent interview.
Only just found out about Pavel. He has interesting to study.
Thank you for guiding me here Joe Rogan
I do 20 push ups at a time. Every hour of the day. For around 15 Sets a day. Gonna start implementing 5 pull ups and 20 sit ups as well, every hour a day for 15 Sets.

20:23 Max SHANK I think you mean Tim ??
*Pavels hypothesis on the science behind hypertrophy is EXACTLY WHAT INMATES DO IN PRISON TO GET BIG AS FUCK, I have a bunch of mechanic friends to take care of my bikes and some of them are huge inmates*
They do it every other day for each muscle group, but they do 2-3 sessions a day, and these guys eat a minimum of a kilo of carbs a day, that's the macro.
They do an exercise they can do 10-30 reps with non stop before failure, resting more than a second between reps in a set DOES NOT COUNT, perfect form.
They do half their maximum reps on each set which is the *rep goal*, 1-2 minutes between sets, they keep doing sets until they REACH THAT SET where they fail before reaching that rep goal.
Every 3-4 weeks they would do a set to failure to see if they have increased their max reps.
Then they would set the new *rep goal* per set based on that new max.
They train each body part every other day, so basically upper body pressing, upper body pulling, and pistol squats. However they do those squats only twice a week. Squats are harder to recover from because we humans walk around all day everyday, legs get minimal rest.
Exercises they use are push up variations(diamond push ups, archer push ups, one arm push up feet shoulder width, one arm one leg push ups, deep handstand push ups, archer handstand push ups and I have heard some can also do one arm deep handstand push ups).... And obviously, the feet elevated variations of all push up variations to fail before reaching 50 nonstop reps.
For pulling they do kipping pull ups, strict pull ups, archer pull ups, negative one arm pull ups, one arm pull ups......
Guys I know have 21 inch arms with flat abs, everyone is 250-260lbs.
Now, according to them, there are lots of guys who got 20 inch guns from one arm push ups alone, also there are lots of them who can do one arm pull ups and one arm one leg push ups for 50+ reps but their arms are below 20 inches.
According to them everything depends upon how heavy some one is, a 270lbs guy who can do 25 pull ups will be far more ripped and jacked than the guy who is 160lbs and can do 50 pull ups...
But yeah, volume is key, volume is money, I have been doing this with pronated dips and chin ups and put on 5lbs of lean mass in 4 weeks..... *THATS A LOT*
Like Pavel says, forget about the number of sets, just keep doing them, recover between sessions, you will get big if you eat enough.
What steroids do they inject?
Some usefull stuff. Thanks.
Does anyone know who are the Russian strength coaches that Pavel mentions in this podcast? I would like to read more about their methods.

I've heard of verkoshansky but not the other guy. I wish someone could translate his stuff
Tim, this guy is a Bad Ass, I have been a security officer in a past life. I have worked with some of the most bad ass marines in the world and this group you speak of the "Spetnaz" is serous and highly regarded as some of the best in the world. Way to go on getting this guy on your show. 🏳🏳🚫Don't have him practice any moves on you bro!! It's not like the UFC, there is no option to tap out!!🛇🏳🏳
🍻Cheers to bring on the deadliest guest on your show🍻
56:00 I wonder if this is why dogs vigorously shake themselves after a fight.?
Tim Lazenby it's also documented that deer, gazelle etc will shake after huge adrenaline dump following flight in face of life threatening predator chase
It's a tactic of fighters, particularly street fighters to shake their legs or tap their toes to conceal the adrenaline coursing through.
What is the name Pavel says at 57:03?
Let’s get Pavel and Nassim on a podcast. How many likes would that take?
He's the man!
Took me 3 weeks of consistent work after herring this, but I got my suspended side splits.
Most of you will ignore Pavel, few will truly grasp the power he speaks of
An issue of "Florida Weight-man" magazine in the 1960s had Donne Hale describing squats just like Dan John's "Goblet Squats".
Back in the good old days when it was simply...doing a squat holding a kettlebell

Very well said...Las Vegas version of America
what was the name of the guy in his 80s who does jump squats with 200lb
Rudolf Vladimirovich Plyukfelder
Can super setting different muscle groups be effectively used in conjunction with the grease-the-groove technique? For instance, does it work do a set of push ups immediately followed by a set of pull ups, then rest for 15 minutes before repeating multiple times? Or, should only single sets be used?
This method would probably work when you try to overcome a old injury?
Does Pavel still speak on his system? Or is all his works still practical?
Somebody know what number is this podcast on Spotify??
how to spell the two russian names of trainers that pavel mentions?? sounds like prochavskava and tsilianov or something like this??
Pavel wanted to MAGA before MAGA was a thing. 1:47:00
60-70%1RM with sets of 5-6 reps? 60%1RM with 5RM is 5@10RIR! And 9RIR with 6 rep sets! That's really light!
boxerfencer it works tho. He really focuses on technique. I can attest to his training. It’s a bit of a what the F**** factor. Because you go for a 2 or 1 RM and it’s far exceeding of expectations.
@@jonathanerickson1543 oh, I can believe it.
