@leedowner2249 Yeah.... We better get with it. Yesterday, I saw a picture of myself benching 365 for reps about 15 years ago. Realized, I'm still there as of last week.
1000%. I have experienced this myself and seen this with general population personal training clients as well. When I used to be a powerlifter myself I had this 5-day split that worked wonders for me and since then I had this arbitrary 5-day number that I had to hit or else I failed. It turned into a cycle of missing one or two workouts and just scratching the entire week because I had already missed one or two. Then it turned into a 4-day split with the same thing happening. As a new dad, new job, more responsibilities, and chronically sleeping 3-4 hours less I just had to come to the conclusion that it was unrealistic for me to keep up with what I was doing when I could sleep 8-9 hours a night and had way less going on. Fast forward a whole year and my new standard is a 3-day Total Body split where I can give it my all for only those 3 workouts. One of those days has to be a weekend so that I only have to workout two days during the week. I'm back in my groove and my levels of self-efficacy are back up. Whatever extra energy I have goes towards bonus or "extra credit" relatively easy and light workouts.
@@marken816 Now that I’m 31 the amount of volume I can handle is significantly less. My workouts used to be 8-10 exercises long and now it’s a solid 5 exercises with maybe 1 or 2 “extra credit” ones if I feel I have the time and energy. I had a “leave no stone left unturned” approach and if you asked why an exercise was in my split I could give you a 1 paragraph response as to why lol. Those exercises probably helped get to where I was, but one can argue now some of it was probably junk volume and wasting valuable time that could be used for recovery. It’s crazy how much I would stress over exercise selection. Getting older, I developed a perspective of just being grateful I got the workout in, while sort of auto regulating and also making sure I’m still progressing over time even if it wasn’t as aggressive. I used to squat and deadlift twice a week on the same day and now I can only handle once a week and they have to be on separate days. Golfing is my biggest athletic endeavor now and I have to make sure I’m not crazy sore for that. Squatting, deadlifting, and bench pressing strength are all still right now that I'm trying to build some clubhead speed. My split is fairly simple. Day 1: squats, paused bench press, lat pulldown, rows, and some other horizontal push exercise Day 2: Overhead Press, Pull Ups, Lunges, Close Grip Bench Press, rows Day 3: Deadlifts, Different Pull Up variation, Touch and go bench press, Incline DB Bench, Favorite Bicep/Tricep variation at the time Obviously this video is on elite lifters so they may be more aggressive with the way they go about things and exercise selection. But if you’re just an average joe looking to build solid muscle and strength without getting too crazy with it, I feel this is a solid approach and has worked great for me. The biggest thing is finding a frequency that works best for you and kill it. If it’s 4 days, go Upper/Lower and you can probably handle a few more exercises.

I love this! I teach and coach strength training. Number one on our list is planning and programming appropriately. So many people lack a consistent plan that addresses you time - stress - rest - food - goals and even motivation. I’d add that it’s better to err on the side of caution. It’s easy to get discouraged if things don’t go perfectly. Also, quality is far superior to just quantity.
@@dudee499 Johnny started making videos 12 years ago and he started making a name for himself online in the YT community about 10 years ago. So the math checks out. 🙂
This is a very interesting take. Never really thought of it like this but it makes far more sense. You really have a good look at the bigger picture of things. We often get lost in the minor details, and overlook major details.
I've practically never missed a session in almost 10 years and still weak, I've known guys hit advanced numbers (300+ bench or 550 DL) in literally 1 year of training. I think sadly it's more contingent on genetics than anything else, especially as those guys never even had training plans, they would just come in and say "yeah I feel like deadlifting today" and hit a PR while I would fail a 2.5kg jump on my novice set of 5 reps, tragic.
There is no way anyone is hitting 300 on the bench in a year. And there's no way someone is not hitting even 220 after 10 years (unless, injury or some physical limitation).
@@gphanisrinivasful I wouldn't believe it unless I saw it either, there were only 2 of them, one ex-athlete and the other guy was just a random genetic phenom. They made more progress than me in literally 1 tenth of the time and looked about 5x better, nuts.
Brother have you tried gaining a considerable amount of bodyweight while you were training hard? Your body won't respond to training if it doesn't get the nutrition to support it. If your entire bulk is going from 160 lbs to 165-170 lbs, you will never gain considerable strength. When you go from 160 to 180-190 then cut back to 165-170, you become a monster relative to where you were
PPL 6 Days on a heavy/light scheme Top set and 4 Backoff sets last set to failure with minimum Rep threshold. Every Rep over the minimum add 1% to your training max Change between 2-3 Variations only when things get stale and do plenty of bodybuilding work and prioritize weaknesses first hitting the BBing accessories HARD. Trust
Don't say that..if you have started this sport late in life then that's a good thing cause your body isn't torn up like myself.. There's several lifters in late 50's doing incredible lifts cause their body isn't worn out..
@@paulwaters4672Thank you friend. I started serious lifting when I was 45. I have to keep myself from comparing my numbers to others. As long as I keep working and improving, I'm doing well.
Candito, thank you so much for the training tips. If I can offer a small tip in return - do you know that they make shirts in different sizes? Like, it's not necessary for your regular clothing to feel like a deadlift suit.
Not sure I agree, I think in the case you mentioned its fairly obvious what caused the performance dip, its inconsistency because of life circumstances. I think if the interruptions are rare there is nothing wrong with trying to plan a deload or pivot on those weeks. Interesting take none the less.
Honestly I don't see how some can train more than 3 times a week with any intensity. I'm making pretty good gains these days on 2 times a week, don't miss a workout and have time to actually get stronger between sessions without the anxiety of being recovered enough. Currently in the last week of a 5 week block and I still feel decently fresh.
Seriously. So many people with phenomenal genetics have too much of an ego to realize how important that is to their success. There is no way they are just blessed in some way; it must be their own work ethic and effort. Personally, I was blessed with being good at school; idk how much of it is genetic vs other factors but I know very well that I do better than most of my peers (in a STEM major) despite not working as hard. When people do better than me (marginally better, a few percentage points) are putting in WAY more effort than I am; not proportional to the few extra points they get and definitely not proportional when we both get an A. In contrast, I train harder and with more consistency than some of my friends yet make worse progress, despite their heavy drinking that I don’t partake in. And I’ll admit that I have had issues with diet and sleep that hinder my progress; I’m not going to pretend I do everything perfectly. Even that is one of those factors, genetic or otherwise, that hinders my progress relative to my peers. I have to actively track my diet and work at just getting maintenance calories because my appetite is so low, while some of them just naturally have a level of hunger that has led them to consistent, lean muscle gain. I could of course do things to fix my diet and sleep, which I do work at, but you can’t tell me that just effortlessly having those things work out for them isn’t a huge advantage. Genetics and other factors outside our control influence every aspect of our lives. Even the way we were raised. Like, work ethic. Somebody being raised to have a good work ethic is such a huge, essentially inherited trait, even if it wasn’t genetically inherited. Of course, we can’t let those things dictate our lives completely; we should all work to improve, especially in areas that we are deficit, even if those deficits came from something outside our control. We owe it to ourselves.
@@shades4313 trained in a few PL gyms in my time. Lifetime natty, 200kg, 150kg, 272kg, S/B/D, so i was still kinda shit...But MANY p.e.d users never got that far from what i saw!. Especially with the deadlift. They did look better tho LOL.
@ dude that’s solid! Especially the deadlift, 600 is nothing to sneeze at. I think your perception is warped due to social media as well as training at a Pl gym. Most gym goers will never get to those numbers PEDs or not
@@shades4313 My perception is definately skewed haha. Anytime a random gets talking about gym then numbers, most of the time they dont beleive me. haha

This is a nugget of gold that isn’t talked about enough especially with the “science based” trend currently going on drilling into people heads “you must do high volume or you will never see gains”. You will see way more gains consistently doing 4-6 sets per week than doing 12 sets sporadically 1 or 2 times a month etc.
Is it okay to not care about squatting/deadlifting heavy? I enjoy training more when I focus on cardio and doing high rep front squats/rdls and having a heavy focus on bench/weighted pull-up
Whatever you want i guess, any kind of weighttraining is good. Tho heavy lifting has some healthbenefits improving the quality of life, which you are not able to get any other way.
@@Jafmanz I agree conventional deadlift should be the king and sumo shouldnt even count as a deadlift, they should just be completely separate lifts. However....a dude still picked up 445kg off the floor, its pretty fucking cool and immensely strong
Highly agree. Intermediate weightlifter here, who was making good steady progress training once every three days. Upped to 3-4 times a week and got burnt out after a few months, haven't been consistent in the past four months since then.
If you got sub 400 wilks and your lifts hardly ever moved i.e 5KG every 6 months. You tried to talk to your coach about it and still nothing it working its time to move on
You are too young to know about lifetime this and that. But you are right about planning. Conscious practice vs. autopilot. If you are attentive enough and you do remember your last raises, your body will tell you when it's time to progress again in some exercise
Slept another 2 hours instead of hitting the gym today, means i gotta go tomorrow but I know that session will be better than today's session would ever have been. Autoregulation or something like that
