You've probably heard that there are some differences between training for strength and hypertrophy…but what does that REALLY mean? In this video Dr. Eric Helms breaks down the fundamental differences, as well as gives numerous recommendations that are catered to your goals!

Old video but this really opened my eyes to the possibilities during training.
Even had me realizing what certain styles of training did to my body composition.
Great video!!!
I did all my lifts with big exercises for volume. Now I know why I have tendinitis!
Omar still looks like a buffed up woman.
captain america .. only kidding!
People are overcomplicating things. You get big doing low reps of heavy weights on compound exercises and then with isolation exercises you do higher reps. Arnold, Franco and Ronnie did powerlifting first; Dorian Yates and Jay Cutler squat and deadlift over 600lbs and bench in the 400s. I don't really care about bodybuilding- I'm just interested in looking better and being able to fight (Lesnar, Overeem, Ngannou, etc. are jacked)
OMG I love this channel. SUBSCRIBED!
Powerbuilder. End of story.
5 is good! all the time
Just add some heavy sets at the end of your compounds you should be good ,
Anecdotal evidence > scientific research
Ppl over complicate. PPL and give 100%
RATE MY PUSH DAY PLEASE.
push day
-3×5 overhead press (4-5 min rest)
-3×5 bench press (4-5 min rest)
-5×10 dips (3 min rest)
-5xdropset skullcrushers (2 min rest)
-5xdropset dumbbell lateral raise (1 min rest)
what’s cracking guys, oh more ESOP here back with another video
I think strength as a skill is more complicated than needing to train what you want to get better at in the sense of intensity (i.e. needing to train 3RM or lower to improve 1RM). One of the programs that significantly improved my 1RM was Pavel's 5x5x5 which was 1 set of 5 reps at 7RM a day, 5 days a week for 5 movements (bench, squat, DL, pullup, OHP). Frequency over volume often goes a long way for strength as a skill.
So what’s good for soccer players?
What if you can't get more reps but add more weight is possible and after that you can do more reps again
I always considered myself a hard gainer, but the reality was I had always had a lousy diet. As soon as I started following the Agoge diet, I started gaining muscle fast!

Great video. When I run 5×5 it’s for 8-12 weeks and at the end of workout I will add isolation movements for arms shoulders sets each in high reps. Then the next 12 weeks more traditional bodybuilding routine in terms of volume but I will add 1-3 sets of low rep strength movements in each workout
Spoiler alert: Franco Columbu (thumbnail image) is not featured in this video? Got it. Next!
