    There are no shortcuts, you have to train for both mass and function as they compliment each other. Functional training simply focuses on form, range of motion, and/or cardio. Mass training simply focuses on explosive power and maximum tension.

    That rain is so chill, made the vidoe so relaxing yet informative 😊💪

    I always trained for performance, and the aesthetic followed.

      I was going to say the same.
      Strength is king.
      Looking good is the bonus.
      No false advertising.

      Exactly 💯. Looking good is the byproduct, not the objective.

      Muscles will grow and u will Look good. But bodybuilding is different to make a bodybuilding physique it's all about proportion. Like waist to shoulders or in open bodybuilding looking overall mascular.so bodybuilding is different and I would say most of us should not train for hypotrophy only if u know it's a trend nowadays. Every one just train for hypotrophy . We should also train for performance. But if anyone's goal is hypotrophy he should focus on proportions

    The challenge for me is both. Trying to train calisthenics and swim, so difficult because connective tissue never seems to get a rest.

    Crossover between the two areas is the key info in this video IMO

    I rather enjoy training for function. I still get decent aesthetics while getting stronger for everyday life. I just like being able to due stuff.

    Our bodies don’t know or care what they look like. Physical adaptations to training are rooted in physiological survival mechanisms, not a desire to post Instagram photos. Aesthetics are ultimately a reflection of fitness, so focusing on performance serves both masters.

    It's very true that lopsided training isn't aesthetically pleasing. Aesthetics are all about proportion and posture, so it's a mistake to neglect half your body (especially if it's the opposite side), and there's even an extent beyond which mure muscle size looks worse (although getting there is probably harder than I make it sound).

    Functionality is also about social life. In our post modern world, the narratives and thruths that are trends and memes dictate our lives as much as the realities behind them.
    In other words, looking fit might get you further in life than actually being fit in many cases.

      Anyways, I think squat push pull + spending time outside doing cardio will get you most benefits of both worlds.

    If people want specific sections of muscles such as the front section of the deltoids or the upper chest to be bigger, does training the whole muscle area actually help?
    Wouldn't that make everything grow to some extent, reducing (or even erasing) the effect this has on the proportions?
    You've seen more than I have, especially inside gyms and similar contexts, so I'd like to hear your opinion on this:
    Could it be that people are less inclined to accept their looks the way they are than they used to be in the past (before the bodybuilding revolution)?
    I have a hunch that many people are deluding themselves about what can be changed about their appearance and would fare better (if only because they'd live less stressful and more harmonic (?) lives) if they could let go of such specific expectations that may or may not come to be.
    I'm not even saying that these things are simply genetically predetermined and can't possibly be changed, they likely aren't (and the same goes for other singular factors, probably), but that controlling your body, your self, so meticulously requires methods that are so sophisticated that they are closer to bio-engineering than exercise.
    Who would actually want that and is this still a sane extent of concern with your body?

      When you train a muscle it doesn’t ignite the entire muscle you have to do full range of motion exercises like resistance bands to hit every part of 1 muscle

    • @xCorvus7x
      @xCorvus7x ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@InUrGirlWhich parts of the muscle are we talking about here?
      If we're talking about different sections along the direction wherein the muscle fibres contract, that may be.
      However, the different sections of the chest of which some people speak are all parellel to each other, so all of them work simultaneously and contribute to the same motion.

    Tell Glassman about that. He always started talking about crossfit by denigrating people who did bodybuilding exercises and endurance exercises

    Training for function will give you the natural aesthetics you were born to have. Unless you want to look like a bodybuilder, aka, not a real human being, which 99.999% of people can never physically attain without the use of heavy anabolic agents and hormones, not to mention one of the worst diets enough to feed 5 people. Then all you have to worry about is your brittle joints, little nuts, and soon to be exploding heart. Yeah, train for function people.
