Brad Schoenfeld is back in the house! In this video Brad goes over some research he conducted recently (that hasn't been published yet) AKA THIS IS THE EXCLUSIVE SCOOP.
Is training a muscle 2x per week superior to 1x per week? Find out in this video. If you enjoyed it make sure to give it a like and leave a comment!
Deadlift only everyday
At least once. At most 7 times a week. Assuming only once a day.
If you are looking for the best workouts guide you should check these guides from Unflexal .
Ok I only train 7 times a week and I bench everyday 1200lbs for 60reps and I just turned 11 yesterday. Is that good?
I train everyday and rest when I need to because I feel like shit if I don’t go gym
Say if I did benchpress would that also count as training shoulders
Go Devils!
Love the Devils gear!!🤘🏼🤘🏼
Everyday bro
For the easy answer, skip to 9:05 and read the text. Still good to hear the chat and reasoning, though.
So if you're doing a 3 day full body split how many exercises are you doing per muscle group for that?
EVERY. DAMN. DAY.
So does 2 times a week full body also work for beginners ? Can one do 3×10 instead of 3×5?
Perfect vindication for the athlean x total body workout I've just started. My goal was athleticism primarily anyway, but I have thoroughly enjoyed the training style so far. Having done a year of bro splits before, and tbh I like smart bro splits, nothing wrong with them imo, I do like this new style of training. Let's see where it goes!
Just finished watching AlphaDestiny's advice about doing full body training twice a week. This video just solidifies that he gives great advice.
You should train all the times in the week imo
Great content.
This is golden information. When I'm starting, I hear advice around but the researchers I tend to follow since I'm science minded. When it comes to diet, I'm whole food-plant based and thinner but I'm gonna get triggered by bro science alpha males in the gym who tell me I need to 'eat more' and 'do you get enough protein' bs. Granted, most people are not pushy like that but I cringe thinking about it happening. It's part of my new lifter's stereotype of what goes on in a gym! =D
According to Cosmopolitan, Omar's body language indicates that he's attracted to Dr. Brad's sphinx. Both knees are turned toward's the object of his desire, the reaching arm, the loaded hips. Dr. Brad's left knee, rising up to meet Omar's right knee, indicates that he's warming up to the idea, but that if shit went down, he's going to be the boy gay, not the girl one.
I never did figure out how often I should train per week. Two to three, but possibily six.
If you work out more than 3 days a week I don’t think we can be friends.
Whoo hoo….The man is here, we are looking for…
Guys come on in!!!
Let the man talk dude freaking this constant interrupting is annoying
this is a bunch of crap, top weightlifters train 6-7 days a week for 3-5 hours a day. the more volume you can do WHILE STAYING FRESH equals more strength and muscle mass.. training to fail;ure is NOT how you should train!. the mike mentzer/aurthue jones/natulas "one set to failure" is a way to overtrain and get injured. Im 60 years old and have trained for 45 years now. Ive had many injuries in my 30's while training to failure and max weights. today I train with weights and exercise bands for 1.5-2.5 hours a day……in addition to this I walk 1.5-2 hours a day….all this 7 days a week, I hit each muscle group every other day. I NEVER train to failure andI gradually increase my volume. more volume = more muscle mass…PERIOD. Im now injury free and look and feel better than I did in my thirties.
Omar what is your thought on squatting with mild scoliosis?
I will certainly consult with multiple PT-s just wanted to read your 2 cents.
That is just an statistical analysis that works for most people, most people will have roughly average genetic potential when it comes to recovery ability. I suspect there is a bell shaped cure when it comes to genetic potential for weight training and also there’s probably a correlation between a person’s ability to recover and there maximum potential for muscle mass and strength.
The reality of the situation is that some people have poor genetics when it comes to recovery ability and are going to need more rest between workouts for a given workout where as others can thrive on multiple workouts per week for a given program. All things are not equal so a logical approach would be to start with a abbreviated program to begin with to see how things go, you can always increase volume and frequency of training if the workout is not demanding enough until you reach a place when optimum results are reached.
Monday: chest, triceps, shoulders Tuesday: squats and calves Wednesday: deadlifts back and bis Thursday: chest triceps, shoulders Friday: squats calves Saturday: back and bis. (I cannot deadlift twice a week)
thx
What got me from 60kg bench to 130kg+, 15 pull ups to 35 pull ups, 90kg deadlift to 180kg in a year
Monday – Push
Tuesday – Legs
Wednesday – Pull
Thursday – Rest
Friday – Push
Sat – rest
Sunday – Pull
– Rest 3 full days (72hours) before working out same muscle again, hence if your last workout was Pull on a Sunday, wait until Thursday until you workout pull again!
plan: 2 days a week of full body then kick it up two three after two years of training if I want to .
great content! How to periodate my volume though please? Over what period should one start decreasing their volume? I used to be part of a team where the coach would be generally telling us when to deload but now that I'm on my own I don't know when to decrease my volume and how long I should keep going on the same volume before I do that. Any help would viable!
"Build muscle and lose fat..while in a caloric deficit?" I suspect 99% of the time, that will not happen.. despite my respect for the researcher.
Algorithms
Waay late to the party! So what I gathered is 2x per week is most optimal…3x MAY be ok for some, assuming they have the resources for recovery, but the results aren't that much more significant (if at all) than 2x? I'm going to start doing full body (zercher sq, bb rows, & ohp) twice per week and see how that does.
