    Mike mentzer says the more weights you can push,more rest you need. I've also heard you can get 300% stronger,but can only increase recovery rate by 50%. So it makes sense that a stronger man would need more and more rest since he does more and more work.

    Ever since I started lifting, I went hard. I first started going to the gym with my older sister(who could drive) during summer break between 6th and 7th grade, and eventually convinced my best friend to join also. We rode our bikes to the gym and stayed for 2-3 hours literally every day, high weight low reps all the time. And around 9th grade, I (and soon my best friend) hit a wall, where no matter what we did we weren't increasing in strength on...well, almost everything it felt like. Since I first started lifting(this would have been like mid-late 90s) I'd heard about how important rest was, and would often overhear the conversations of the older guys who would debate this stuff. But I always figured, I don't hit each muscle every day, so each muscle/muscle group is getting at least a day or two of rest.
    Though actually there was a long period where we did bench/chest/tri's first thing, every single day, and that was the hardest/longest wall I'd ever hit(again, around the start of 9th grade), or at least the most frustrating one, given how much time we spent in the gym, how hard we went, the fact that despite being a relatively small(well, average I guess) sized guy(I'm 5'10 or 11" now for reference, was probably only about 160 in 9th grade), I was assigned to play linebacker, and I desperately wanted to get as big and strong as I possibly could, as it's not fun having to take on blocking linemen, fullbacks, 200+in running backs with agility of a...I dunno, a kangaroo?)
    Anyway, I was stuck at 245lbs for bench, and couldn't lift more than that for what felt like a year(barring the usual random good days, or when I was hyped up, etc.) And the worst part was watching these other guys from school, or other football players in the weight room who hadn't lifted before, making huge gains in strength.
    Eventually my friend and I agreed to rest each muscle group for at least 3-4 days, and to only bench about twice a week. And wouldn't you know it, we started lifting more. Not huge increases, as we weren't on gear or anything, and could barely afford protein and weight gain shakes(gaining weight was particularly difficult for me), but enough to make it feel like all of the time and dedication was worth it.

  • @ates423

    I think it’s important to deload to let your lower back and joints recover. I almost tweaked something recently because in a month I went from a 315lb max squat and deadlift to hitting it for 3x8s 3-4x a week. I gained the strength and nervous system to do so but my joints I feel has not caught up nor recovered from it. So I’m taking a deload week for the first time ever, half the volume and frequency and replacing it with low intensity cardio

    • @OfficialStrongmancom
      @OfficialStrongmancom  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Can't go wrong with a deload every 3 weeks. Doesn't need to be major but a slight pull back in volume/intensity to pull some recovery back for the next few weeks

    The rest of the video he explains that he alternates between training his fast twitch and slow twitch muscle fibres. So that fast could recover when training slow and vise versa
    I have been doing this for a few months now and gained some decent muscle would reccomend

    Thus is so true. I lifted 280kg as part of a 5,4,3,2,1 as my single but by lazy missing accidentally Monday/Thursday. I'd miss Monday out of laziness do deadlift on Thursday then I'd have to skip the following Monday and often I'd be lastly and miss a Thursday.. I noticed that when I was lazier I'd hit more gains.. went up by 5kg a "week" like this
