I’ve heard of German Volume Training where you do 10×10 squats. Even thinking of 5 sets of squats and I’m already like "yeah nah". Mixing it up is way more fun.
I must commend you on this video’s quality. You covered a lot of ground in a very good amount of depth. Nicely done!
I’ve exercised in a gym for 25y+ (on and off) and I’ve had to learn all of this from trial and error. Quite a lot of trial, error and frustration. This video isn’t of much practical value for me now, as I already knew all of this, but 25y ago it would have been extremely valuable. I love exhaustive, systematic educational materials.
I found the topic in this video to be very interesting as lately I had been experimenting with the idea. My personal account too is that any exercises that focuses more on a part of a certain muscle needs a certain amount of per session and weekly volumes to be beyond a ”beneficial threshold”, so yeah mixing and matching without proper calculations does not yield the expected results.
I wish you further elaborate this issue in future vids. Love your vids. 👍
I do one exercise per muscle per week (4 sets a muscle) as I don’t enjoy training much these days. I’m still making progress but definitely slower than when I trained 3 or 4 times a week with two or three exercises for some muscles.
1 exercise and 5 set per muscle group. I do this twice a week to hit a variety of muscle groups in little time. Then top it off with 30min cardio, I don’t want to be in the gym for longer than an hour y’know.
Question pls since bigger muscles need more training than smaller muscles and the ones who are affected indirectly, if working on a 2 muscle group per training session the best exercises number might be 5 exercises for ether chest back or legs, 4 for shoulders and 3 for biceps or triceps " 3 set scale " is that ideal for someone who is used to bodybuilding not a beginner?
Why does the specific part of the muscle that is contracted matter? i.e. the “mid and lower pec”, why is that significant? It’s the same muscle, so why is it relevant what part of that singular muscle is contracted most?
You probably won’t see this,
But your videos are the best

Ive been wondering about this, thanks for the info!

Great content as always!
