I wouldn't do this every single leg workout. Tbh, it can lead to greater injury risk of your tendons. There are ways to build big legs without treating each leg day as a SAW torture session. Sure, leg workouts should be demanding and arguably are the most fatiguing workout of the week, but sometimes a psycho mindset can get you injured af. High volume style of 4 sets of 10 with an RPE (rate of perceived exertion) 0f 7 or an 8 out of 10, does yield quality gains. Training to failure every single leg workout may not be the best approach depending on your genetic makeup. High volume shouldn't be trashed so much.

@@darkp00pie no hes not dont tell me you never did a big gym session and had sore muscles next day and you never scheduled things next time its a loser mentality to just keep going hard and no rest
100% agree with this. I've got big legs, but I used to have chicken legs. I used to squat big weights etc until me and my friend decided to drop the weights down and just go for reps. Didn't do 3 sets of 100, but did 5-6 sets of 25 tripple setting with extensions and lunges and god did that kill us... We were doing everything of 25s and tripple setting with all kinds. The legs were growing so fast like never before and we hated our workouts so so much. I now train with bigger weights and only 10 to 12 sets because I just can't cope with this sickness that I used to feel every leg day, but I do legs twice a week and I'm still managing to maintain a very good size of my legs. Whenever anyone asks me how to grow legs my answer is always the same, drop the weight, forget your ego and just rep the hell out of it.
I couldn’t complete it either. I got 56 reps into the second set before I felt like I was going to injure my lower back. Pondered going home and beating off. Then did some calves 4x20 to see if my legs would recover. Attempted a body weight squat to see if they worked or not, success. So I did 3x25 on leg press and finished up with 3x20 on calves.
I’m at the gym doing this right now as I recently implemented it into my leg day. Let me tell you right now that I used to be one of those people who looked forward to leg day because I TRULY believed I was pushing myself. I finished my first set of 100 reps, and let me tell you that this next set is intimidating me. I’ll update the next morning when I won’t be able to walk LOL. Look forward to the leg growth though!! EDIT 1: I have a newfound respect for leg day. This is no joke. OVERNIGHT EDIT: Yeah. I’m sore as hell. Everything below the waist is killing me.
@@lilytheparrot8429 Pretty much, yep. But this exercise in general was my main leg exercise since I was constantly on the verge of shitting myself afterward lol. I would do this, then leg press, leg curls and hip thrusts. I’d do low weight with high reps
I would suggest working up to 3 sets of 100. Start with three sets of 40, then increase by 10 each week until you can do 3 sets of 100. Otherwise you could end up with Rhabdo from doing too much when you are not ready for it.
That's how I think as well. It's like the saying "don't trust a skinny chef." I listened to just 1 piece of advice from this guy just 1! And my legs were in so much soreness, and burning pain that I had to stop leg day early the first time around. I had trouble walking lol. It was 100x more effective then whatever the hell I was doing before.
its all about genetics ryan is just straight up lying about it.. sure you can always improve your size but not noticeably like the other dude with the great leg genetics.. i had a training partner whos legs was twice bigger than mine and he was new to lifting.. i could lift at the time on the squat more than him yet his legs was improving fast with less weight.. and it wasnt fat but pure muscle.. the is certain muscles that genetics playing a big role on theyre size like calves,arms etc
"Leg day is not just something you do - it's something you survive." As scary as it may sound, this is legit one of the most inspirational workout quotes I've ever heard.
its truth. the pain-after some squats, front squats, reverse bar lunge then onto the dumbbell lunges and goblet squats and your legs are shakin and you can barely stand let alone do something with load.
I did this program last night but I found it to be too light, so I did five sets of 250 reps each with a 45 pounder on each side. That was a great warm up and I was ready to move on but my wife messed it up when she brewed some fresh coffee and told me it was time to wake up
When I was in jail, between 2014 2018 i used to work in the gardens with an old school body builder he was in his 60s, we made our gym out soil bags and posts for bars and doorways for pull ups , and he always used to make us get a 20kg bag of soil and do 3 sets of 100 if you quit you wasnt allowed to train with us the next day, it was beyond brutal your wholebody screams to stop but the strength gains and progression is wild, we used to do it 3 times a week literally my legs turned into tree trunks and my whole body grew with it I never looked back this was in 2015, this is the first video that's actually said exact same thing. this dudes the real deal, I'm not playing games he knows what hes talking about.
That is wild! And i totally believe you. I don't have a squat rack so I am limited by the amount of weight I can clean and press up and drop on my back. Then I grind out the reps until I reach 100 reps. It often ends up being a 10x10 session. High volume squats will reveal your true character!
I’m 37 and I’ve been training since the age of 15. In my 22 years of training I have seen the most results from high volume, high frequency training and calisthenics. I have tried it all but in my experience it’s the intensity of reps that get you there.
Yeah 3 x100 reps you'll get to the point where you feel dead but just rest with the bar on your shoulders dont rack it till ya hit the 100 reps its brutal do it 3 times a week its wild progression my legs blew
It's actually a brilliant cinematic technique. I believe Dunkirk made use of it when Tom Hardy does a glide-by at the beach to save all those men. Even in Anime, like Attack on Titan, high impact scenes are made that much more powerful by the deafening silence. It really is an awesome way to drive a point home.
I came upon this vid one day walking to the gym. Coincidentally it was leg day, i was like alright i guess theres a change of plans today. I did 100 reps of the 45lbs bar, 100 reps of the bar with 10lbs plates on each side, then 100 reps with the bar and 20lbs on each side. Im on day 3 of recovering from this exercise and the memories still haunt me, i dropped my phone on the floor this morning and instead of squating to get it, i left it there for 20 mins waiting for someone to walk by and ask them if they could pick it up for me because it was too painful to even do a simple half assed squat to pick it up. Enjoy
I did this yesterday and I must say my legs have NEVER been this sore in my life, I was dragging myself across the gym trying to get through my workout after starting with this and my quads are definitely targeted, thanks Ryan
@@murtazahmed5770did this for 3-4months, although I haven’t done it in a while it definitely gave my body a foundation of strength to build upon, I still squat just the bar but I’m focusing on lifting heavier, currently doing 225 5x5, but I wouldn’t be where I am if I didn’t start w this
@Adz K his advice is decent, nothing special. Never blindly listen to anyone's advice, no matter how good you think it is. Athlean-x watchers have the same problem, they act as if Jeff's advice is 100% truthful and perfect, which it isnt
@Adz K Same man. I've been mixing his methods with John Meadows and seeing legit results as an intermediate. Ryan's workouts kept me growing through lockdown with just 20 dbs and bands, also got a deep mind muscle connection all over.
Tamer Ciftci Of course you’re not going to get massive legs by only doing this. It’s just another exercise to try out. Throw it in your workout, maybe change the reps a bit. I’m sure you look absolutely nothing like him when it comes to muscle size and maturity
@Tamer Ciftci weightlifting is pretty simple and this guy actually tells You how to do it. More sets at an adequate intensity causes hypertrophy. That's also the theme of all his videos. If you are trying to get big, more sets of something that is hard enough. Your muscles don't get "Shocked" they either micro tear or they don't.
Well damn! EDIT HERE 5 DAYS AFTER FIRST RESPONSE. Ok so I tried it. The only part of my body that doesn't hurt is my ass crack. My dick hurts. Everything hurts. My damn feet hurt. My face hurts. I want to puke and it's 12 hours later. Will try again tomorrow.
All those millions of numb skulls that sold out weights and dumbbells worldwide since March should have ''felt'' it too. Calisthenics will fucking destroy you and make you grow without the need for ANY extra weight other than your own if you do them right.
Love your stuff Ryan. Your the most real dude I've seen online and you crack me up. I'm 56 now, and don't use heavy weights any more (spent years doing that with "traditional" training and just can't do it any more). So glad to see you promoting muscle growth and gains using lighter weights and muscle failure. I think it will certainly cut down on my lifting injuries as well. Keep up the great posts. Looking forward to learning more.
@@theuglydoode can’t with a damn mask on. Trust me I know the right breathing techniques, doesn’t do shit when the hot air is blowing back in my face, making me overheat and making it harder to breathe
I took this message and modified it a little . I only workout 3x a week doing total body . I did one set 100 reps for each body part . It was brutal !! On alternate days I do a kettlebell total body workout more for conditioning. Ab work is extra all 3 days. I'll be 75 in October , like your messages !
Genetics definitely play a role when you see guys who barely train their legs yet have massive tree trunks. Just like some people naturally have huge calf muscles.
That's literally me, downside is that when you're overweight you also store a lot of fat in your legs and ass, doesn't feel good to be thiccer than most girls you see, so until you start working out it's really a curse but when you start working out it's great that you don't have to do too much if you want legs that are solid
Ryan, thank you for making this video! Couple things I think you should mention to your viewership.... This strategy for shocking the muscle can and should be used for any muscle group that stops responding. Legs are the largest muscle group in the body, so thats why the suffering during training should be so severe. Anyone who is hardcore should be on the verge of throwing up or shitt&ng themselves at least once a month on leg day. This high volume training does not replace heavy lifting. If you want really big muscles, you are going to have to lift heavy weights. Ryan, thank you again for making this video. This is where I send people who ask me how to get their legs to grow.
How...bout this..putting your legs all the way together...close stance...holding a 40lb dumbell in front of u at your waist...doing 100 reps without stopping...but the real challenge of it is doing this every single fuckin day.. 7 days a week...is this a challenge???
He is so old school and i absolutely love it. None of this “hello whats up everybody” bullshit. I definitely will recommend ur videos to my friends. All the best
I understand where u come from with this mentality of leg workouts, and this is no hate. But a guy on gear and a natural guy can maybe lift the same weight around for x reps. But the recovery is very different between those to guys. Ofcourse u need to shock the muscles to get bigger, push them further then any other bodypart(cause u use your legs "24/7"). But the recovery is as important as the workout. I would like people that give advice on workouts, nutrition and the fitness life in general would talk about the difference between gear and no gear. Cause recovery is key
Exactly, I took this approach for years. Trained every single muscle group to threshold of failure or beyond. Didn’t think I had trained unless I was in agony and could barely move my legs and forget taking a crap. Problem is my DOMS would be so bad I could only train my legs once a week at best. If I had held back just a bit, Probsvly could get two or three leg day’s in a week. Recovery is key. People not on gear will annihilate their body parts and honestly be training harder than anyone in the gym and get so discouraged when the bro’s that seem to half ass it are making better gains. Definitely train with intensity but unless you are jumping in gear, then I would advise against total failure
@@donniehollingsworth1611 I take lessons from unintentional natural "bodybuilders". Those working in the field, in construction sites, tend to have very muscular bodies. They don‘t work to failure.
The Don yep, my uncle is a welder/ journeyman and his forearms are like steel beans from holding a torch for years. Seen him personally slam bigger men than him arm wrestling. My great uncle was a logger, used a chainsaw every day for years. His arms are massive and hard and veiny... What we always called that real world muscle
Yeah I agree, I know most of these guys are still giving solid advice, but when studies show that guys on gear gain muscle mass without even lifting, it makes you wonder if the shit they say would even work for a natural...
I really like this dude's videos, no fluff just applicable content. His content on arms has really helped me. I'd like to see what he recommends for muscle imbalances. My left leg is 2" bigger than my right I assume due to injuries and surgeries and my left trap is a little bigger and has a nicer shape than my right. I'm just wondering if it's from muscles like my lateral delt being weaker on my non dominant side so my trap is recruited more.
Its simple: always start the exercise with that side you would like to bring up. I did have muscle imbalance almost all of my left side on my upper body, but I could fix it with that technique PERFECTLY!
I'd agree with the guy that responded. Most imbalances come from favoring the strong side especially in compound lifts. Maybe throw in a bit more isolation exercises to focus on your weak points or take an off day and work on your weak points only. My left shoulder was jacked from surgery and i stopped actually using my left lat almost all together. Took a while to reactivate it but you can look through pt exercise. That shit helped tremendously and it was little baby weight at first but it was more or so just trying to get the muscle ti contract correctly. Once it was the weight increase was no an issue
So i did this, at 40reps my mind said "that's enough you chubby bastard!" And so i kept pushing. Well i got too 100reps with no more than an 8 second rest at any time in the set. Agter i had to lay down and contemplate life a little. Fast forward 4days, i still cant walk properly. Lol. Nailed it! Found my.mental and physical limit. Pushed past them. Sure im still in pain and i have fellen over a few times at work just trying to walk in a straight line. But i can proudly say "its from leg day." And next week we will try again.
Im not expert but i read about a girl who developed a kind of deadly condition because she pushed herself to the limit every time she worked out. Apparently that wasnt good for her body, maybe the human body just not designed for hard work, or maybe in other words, not every human designed for hard work. Some can take it. Some not. Im just saying be careful thats it.
He's right about hard training, and it's the same with every muscle group. The weight and reps don't matter. You rep till it burns and then rep some more. That's how you build muscle most efficiently. Love your work Ryan.
I did this yesterday…. I can honestly say I might be crippled for the next 6 days…. Until I do it again next Wednesday. Thanks for being the absolute WORST Ryan! Love the videos.
Tell me why I got to 10 and instantly regretted ever starting working out lol... made it to the end but here I am 5 days later and my legs still hurt lmaoo, guess thats how im starting leg day for now on
This reminds me of the "five game" we would sometimes do on chest day. When you're doing bench press start with a normal bar and do 5 reps, then add a 2.5 pound plate to each side and do 5 more reps... continue this until there are five 2.5's on both side, after that start taking two 2.5's off after each of 5 reps. Keep doing that until there are no more plates on the bar and you'll be hurtin. And if you finish the whole game do 5 final pushups as a reward!
Since lockdown due to pandemic, I've been doing lots of bodyweight exercises at home. One day of the week ive been hitting 1125 bodyweight squats around 1 hour and half. The growt and strength of my legs never been better! Made me rethink all those hours in the gym using machines...
I grew my quads 2.5 inches by just doing 5 sets of 150 reps every other day for 6 months at the start it was horrible but after a month it was a little too easy, so I added small weights like 4 extra pounds every 2 weeks.
I dig your flow, m'man. A few weeks ago, I started doing 6 sets of 50 squats, no weights, just to get myself going. I'll up the ante by going to 100. When I get that down, then I'll incorporate weights. I need to progress slow due to a back injury, but I'll get there. Thanx for the inspiration.
Yo this the realist s@#$ ive heard in a minute-YOU AINT WORKING HARD ENOUGH, simple. and in our hearts we all know it. check out my dude, legs like that and you can see the pain in those 100 reps with just the bar. idk if im man enough to even try what hes suggested, rather just cruise through leg day and cry about not getting stronger. sound familiar?
Que_Rico then your problem is to be told to women, i dont give a fuck about how they handle their business, they are usually hypocrites when they compliment other women, just go to an ig post and see the comments
I enjoy the Hamstring and Quad machine. Not Squats. I'll do 150lbs 30 times per machine. In a 2 minutes. I set them both to 150. Set the seats and pads perfect. I do 10 run to the other do 10 and go back and forth 3 sets of 10 reps each machine.
everywherei look it says something different, most places say light weight high reps only tones the muscle but doesn't add mass, can someone clear this up for me
@@2jz-boi it’s simple. Your muscles don’t know how to count, they don’t how many reps you did or when you worked out. They simple grow in response to the tension you put them under. There’s various ways to apply tension to a muscle. You can either wear them out over many reps (very mentally straining) or do a few heavy reps (mentally simpler.) You can do either of these as long as you are pushing yourself to failure. As long as you are failing each time and improving your failure limit every workout, then you are growing muscle.
@@JJJJ-fi9dg "You can do either of these as long as you are pushing yourself to failure. As long as you are failing each time and improving your failure limit every workout, then you are growing muscle." Don't do this. I might work for a while, but you'll start burning yourself out. When you go to failure every time, there is nowhere to progress on the next workout. Instead, use RPE or RIR as a guide to leave some reps in the tank. That way you have always room to go heavier or for more reps.

@@connornemeth7296 wym all you do that’s insane lmao
@@connornemeth7296 You add weight after each set of 100.
I couldn’t complete it either. I got 56 reps into the second set before I felt like I was going to injure my lower back. Pondered going home and beating off. Then did some calves 4x20 to see if my legs would recover. Attempted a body weight squat to see if they worked or not, success. So I did 3x25 on leg press and finished up with 3x20 on calves.
3 sets? Nah bro, finished 100 reps, sat on the floor for 10 minutes and jelly legged it out of the gym.
I've never been so afraid of DOMs
@bruh bruhson it's delayed muscle onset soreness. Basically not being able to walk two days later
bruh bruhson I don’t think he meant 3 sets of 100, more of like 100 reps without racking the weight.
@@emiliadejesus947 100 reps without racking the weights. then a tiny increase in weight, and do that shit two more times
1 z oh well, in that case... 😅😅😅 that seems to be scary then lol 💀💀💀😭
Why didnt he showed us how he did 3 sets of 100?
I’m at the gym doing this right now as I recently implemented it into my leg day. Let me tell you right now that I used to be one of those people who looked forward to leg day because I TRULY believed I was pushing myself. I finished my first set of 100 reps, and let me tell you that this next set is intimidating me. I’ll update the next morning when I won’t be able to walk LOL. Look forward to the leg growth though!!
EDIT 1: I have a newfound respect for leg day. This is no joke.
OVERNIGHT EDIT: Yeah. I’m sore as hell. Everything below the waist is killing me.
I just tried it too. I wasn't even able to do it! 60 reps pretty much fried my quads...and I had to break it up into 3 sets.
So after you tire yourself out with 100 reps, you THEN start your leg workout?
@@lilytheparrot8429 Pretty much, yep. But this exercise in general was my main leg exercise since I was constantly on the verge of shitting myself afterward lol. I would do this, then leg press, leg curls and hip thrusts. I’d do low weight with high reps
I would suggest working up to 3 sets of 100. Start with three sets of 40, then increase by 10 each week until you can do 3 sets of 100. Otherwise you could end up with Rhabdo from doing too much when you are not ready for it.
10 months later, have you seen results doing this?

And my legs were in so much soreness, and burning pain that I had to stop leg day early the first time around. I had trouble walking lol. It was 100x more effective then whatever the hell I was doing before.

its all about genetics ryan is just straight up lying about it.. sure you can always improve your size but not noticeably like the other dude with the great leg genetics..
i had a training partner whos legs was twice bigger than mine and he was new to lifting.. i could lift at the time on the squat more than him yet his legs was improving fast with less weight.. and it wasnt fat but pure muscle.. the is certain muscles that genetics playing a big role on theyre size like calves,arms etc

I agree with you on that!

sure, its the truth, but most inspirational? heck no.
its truth. the pain-after some squats, front squats, reverse bar lunge then onto the dumbbell lunges and goblet squats and your legs are shakin and you can barely stand let alone do something with load.
I did this program last night but I found it to be too light, so I did five sets of 250 reps each with a 45 pounder on each side. That was a great warm up and I was ready to move on but my wife messed it up when she brewed some fresh coffee and told me it was time to wake up

When I was in jail, between 2014 2018 i used to work in the gardens with an old school body builder he was in his 60s, we made our gym out soil bags and posts for bars and doorways for pull ups , and he always used to make us get a 20kg bag of soil and do 3 sets of 100 if you quit you wasnt allowed to train with us the next day, it was beyond brutal your wholebody screams to stop but the strength gains and progression is wild, we used to do it 3 times a week literally my legs turned into tree trunks and my whole body grew with it I never looked back this was in 2015, this is the first video that's actually said exact same thing. this dudes the real deal, I'm not playing games he knows what hes talking about.
That is wild! And i totally believe you. I don't have a squat rack so I am limited by the amount of weight I can clean and press up and drop on my back. Then I grind out the reps until I reach 100 reps. It often ends up being a 10x10 session. High volume squats will reveal your true character!
I’m 37 and I’ve been training since the age of 15. In my 22 years of training I have seen the most results from high volume, high frequency training and calisthenics. I have tried it all but in my experience it’s the intensity of reps that get you there.
So squatting a 45 plate 100 times for three sets... Cool...I'm trying it...
Yeah 3 x100 reps you'll get to the point where you feel dead but just rest with the bar on your shoulders dont rack it till ya hit the 100 reps its brutal do it 3 times a week its wild progression my legs blew

The lack of music makes the second hand pain that more real.
It's actually a brilliant cinematic technique. I believe Dunkirk made use of it when Tom Hardy does a glide-by at the beach to save all those men. Even in Anime, like Attack on Titan, high impact scenes are made that much more powerful by the deafening silence. It really is an awesome way to drive a point home.

I came upon this vid one day walking to the gym. Coincidentally it was leg day, i was like alright i guess theres a change of plans today. I did 100 reps of the 45lbs bar, 100 reps of the bar with 10lbs plates on each side, then 100 reps with the bar and 20lbs on each side. Im on day 3 of recovering from this exercise and the memories still haunt me, i dropped my phone on the floor this morning and instead of squating to get it, i left it there for 20 mins waiting for someone to walk by and ask them if they could pick it up for me because it was too painful to even do a simple half assed squat to pick it up.
Enjoy

@Adz K his advice is decent, nothing special. Never blindly listen to anyone's advice, no matter how good you think it is. Athlean-x watchers have the same problem, they act as if Jeff's advice is 100% truthful and perfect, which it isnt
@Adz K Same man. I've been mixing his methods with John Meadows and seeing legit results as an intermediate. Ryan's workouts kept me growing through lockdown with just 20 dbs and bands, also got a deep mind muscle connection all over.
Tamer Ciftci Of course you’re not going to get massive legs by only doing this. It’s just another exercise to try out. Throw it in your workout, maybe change the reps a bit. I’m sure you look absolutely nothing like him when it comes to muscle size and maturity
@Tamer Ciftci weightlifting is pretty simple and this guy actually tells You how to do it. More sets at an adequate intensity causes hypertrophy. That's also the theme of all his videos. If you are trying to get big, more sets of something that is hard enough. Your muscles don't get "Shocked" they either micro tear or they don't.
Well damn! EDIT HERE 5 DAYS AFTER FIRST RESPONSE. Ok so I tried it. The only part of my body that doesn't hurt is my ass crack. My dick hurts. Everything hurts. My damn feet hurt. My face hurts. I want to puke and it's 12 hours later.

- Ryan Humiston
Genetics definitely play a role when you see guys who barely train their legs yet have massive tree trunks. Just like some people naturally have huge calf muscles.
That's literally me, downside is that when you're overweight you also store a lot of fat in your legs and ass, doesn't feel good to be thiccer than most girls you see, so until you start working out it's really a curse but when you start working out it's great that you don't have to do too much if you want legs that are solid

Ryan, thank you for making this video! Couple things I think you should mention to your viewership....
This strategy for shocking the muscle can and should be used for any muscle group that stops responding. Legs are the largest muscle group in the body, so thats why the suffering during training should be so severe. Anyone who is hardcore should be on the verge of throwing up or shitt&ng themselves at least once a month on leg day. This high volume training does not replace heavy lifting. If you want really big muscles, you are going to have to lift heavy weights. Ryan, thank you again for making this video. This is where I send people who ask me how to get their legs to grow.
Thanks man🙌

Been seriously lifting for 37 years.. This Man got my sub in 2 minutes. Damn good video.
when you say seriously for 37 years, when did you reach your max lifts and what were they?
I understand where u come from with this mentality of leg workouts, and this is no hate. But a guy on gear and a natural guy can maybe lift the same weight around for x reps. But the recovery is very different between those to guys. Ofcourse u need to shock the muscles to get bigger, push them further then any other bodypart(cause u use your legs "24/7"). But the recovery is as important as the workout. I would like people that give advice on workouts, nutrition and the fitness life in general would talk about the difference between gear and no gear. Cause recovery is key
Agree
Exactly, I took this approach for years. Trained every single muscle group to threshold of failure or beyond. Didn’t think I had trained unless I was in agony and could barely move my legs and forget taking a crap. Problem is my DOMS would be so bad I could only train my legs once a week at best.
If I had held back just a bit, Probsvly could get two or three leg day’s in a week.
Recovery is key. People not on gear will annihilate their body parts and honestly be training harder than anyone in the gym and get so discouraged when the bro’s that seem to half ass it are making better gains.
Definitely train with intensity but unless you are jumping in gear, then I would advise against total failure
@@donniehollingsworth1611 I take lessons from unintentional natural "bodybuilders". Those working in the field, in construction sites, tend to have very muscular bodies. They don‘t work to failure.
The Don yep, my uncle is a welder/ journeyman and his forearms are like steel beans from holding a torch for years. Seen him personally slam bigger men than him arm wrestling.
My great uncle was a logger, used a chainsaw every day for years. His arms are massive and hard and veiny... What we always called that real world muscle
Yeah I agree, I know most of these guys are still giving solid advice, but when studies show that guys on gear gain muscle mass without even lifting, it makes you wonder if the shit they say would even work for a natural...
I really like this dude's videos, no fluff just applicable content. His content on arms has really helped me. I'd like to see what he recommends for muscle imbalances. My left leg is 2" bigger than my right I assume due to injuries and surgeries and my left trap is a little bigger and has a nicer shape than my right. I'm just wondering if it's from muscles like my lateral delt being weaker on my non dominant side so my trap is recruited more.
Its simple: always start the exercise with that side you would like to bring up. I did have muscle imbalance almost all of my left side on my upper body, but I could fix it with that technique PERFECTLY!
I'd agree with the guy that responded. Most imbalances come from favoring the strong side especially in compound lifts. Maybe throw in a bit more isolation exercises to focus on your weak points or take an off day and work on your weak points only. My left shoulder was jacked from surgery and i stopped actually using my left lat almost all together. Took a while to reactivate it but you can look through pt exercise. That shit helped tremendously and it was little baby weight at first but it was more or so just trying to get the muscle ti contract correctly. Once it was the weight increase was no an issue
Do dumbbells and lunges
Dumbells are great for this

And next week we will try again.
But where is the point?!
Just do a normal warm up set and push yourself afterwards
Yessssssssssssssss. Same here. At least you got your 100 on the first set 😔
there we go! nice
Idc 100 reps is not possible with legs
Im not expert but i read about a girl who developed a kind of deadly condition because she pushed herself to the limit every time she worked out. Apparently that wasnt good for her body, maybe the human body just not designed for hard work, or maybe in other words, not every human designed for hard work. Some can take it. Some not. Im just saying be careful thats it.
He's right about hard training, and it's the same with every muscle group. The weight and reps don't matter. You rep till it burns and then rep some more. That's how you build muscle most efficiently. Love your work Ryan.
In the back of my mind I’ve known what I needed to do all along. I just needed someone else to tell it to me for me to believe it. Thank you.

This reminds me of the "five game" we would sometimes do on chest day. When you're doing bench press start with a normal bar and do 5 reps, then add a 2.5 pound plate to each side and do 5 more reps... continue this until there are five 2.5's on both side, after that start taking two 2.5's off after each of 5 reps. Keep doing that until there are no more plates on the bar and you'll be hurtin. And if you finish the whole game do 5 final pushups as a reward!

@@2jz-boi it’s simple. Your muscles don’t know how to count, they don’t how many reps you did or when you worked out. They simple grow in response to the tension you put them under. There’s various ways to apply tension to a muscle. You can either wear them out over many reps (very mentally straining) or do a few heavy reps (mentally simpler.) You can do either of these as long as you are pushing yourself to failure. As long as you are failing each time and improving your failure limit every workout, then you are growing muscle.

Don't do this. I might work for a while, but you'll start burning yourself out. When you go to failure every time, there is nowhere to progress on the next workout. Instead, use RPE or RIR as a guide to leave some reps in the tank. That way you have always room to go heavier or for more reps.
