Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Son Goku]

You implied we didn't have to since it's in the description.

And most of us remember 3D Alpha when he was "lil bro" to Chris Jones damn near a decade ago.

Anyway, "high volume = best hypertrophy" isn't a new conversation. It just blew back up thanks to the Schoenfeld et al. paper from a couple years ago followed by gymbros rejoicing. Your video cites some of them in the description. You can read Lyle McDonald written review or watch him debate some of the authors to learn why it's far from definitive.

You're best off utilizing both high and low volume.

Not just that, but extremely high frequency seems like it (empirically) would lead to some

, like you alluded to earlier.


Dude stanning for the video is the same breh that can't put two plates on bench, so anything he says gym-wise is automatically sus to me.


Coli nikkas already balk at squatting daily, imagine squatting multiple times a day. Hell, even training the same muscle group multiples a day with isos is . Cyclists biking multiple times a day =/= lifting multiple times a day. You could do calis multiple times a day, or hit weights once a day and be done with it. Most of these calis-only dudes are smaller than the average gymrat anyways, so maybe calis aren't the best for size if weights are available?

I read it. I still agree with the high volume training philosophy and I believe both scientists do as well. It’s just that their definition of high volume differs and Lyle is critical of the quality of Brad’s studies in regards to the results he has produced. They both agree that 10-20 sets per bodypart per week is done, the differ however in regards to how many sessions per week should be done. Lyle is more on the 2-3x per week end, whereas Brad is a bit higher volume end.

Around the 1hr mark is where they start to agree on things.

The increase of sarcoplasmic cells as a result of high volume style of training to failure - hasn’t been debunked by Lyle and that really isn’t even his goal. Lyle and Brad both agree on this, it’s just that methods used by Brad in his studies are criticized by Lyle. Particularly with the lack of double bind studies abs missing date points. Which Lyle believes diminishes the conclusion and results of his studies due to his methods and faulty statistics in the minutiae.

Otherwise, nucleus overload is only to be done in 30 day intervals, with a 2 week rest period followed by a progressive resistance training to fully realize muscle growth.

Team3d actually has another training program called HSP which incorporates most main styles of training from Heavy Lifting, Stretch (slow eccentrics), and Pump training. Which is a pretty solid program with good results.

At the end of the day it’s complicated and everyone is different in regards to recovery and ability. I’m just throwing this training style out there for anyone interested, as I’ve personally seen success from it.
