Which level did YOU learn the most from? Comment below, I'm trying to see something…
lets talk about hyperplasia
hyperplasia exist but just isnt provable
This is an old video of jeff but i just wanted to add that the whole 3 – 30 is just not true idk exactly how the studies were conducted but i've lifted for years and ive tried low rep ranges and they just don't build that much muscle mass because there are so many variables.. your form is not gonna be that good, you will burn out your CNS if you attempt too many high intensity reps (and you can't grow without sufficient volume)
the 30 range is more believable but if you're natural and not a beginner or lower intermediate your body just won't react to the stimuli the same way it would if you gave it more intensity (around 12-15 rep range)
I think there was a study where they took intermediate lifters and they have shown that 15+ is in fact junk volume for experienced lifters but can be used for muscle endurance, it's just not optimal for hypertrophy
It has been my experience that after tracking body composition daily over the last 6 months and spending a couple of months each in 3 separate rep ranges that the 15-20 rep range naturally boosts my appetite. While the lower rep ranges naturally lower my appetite. So my plan has been to use the 15-20 rep range when bulking and the 5-8 rep range when cutting.
I´m ready for level 6!
I’m ready for level 10
Do you need to change your program every 3-4 months
Great content❤❤❤❤, and in the end it is all about tension/training to feliure or close/with progresive overload😅

Very informative
6:15 I love these hand written charts. So many channels just do PowerPoint looking slides, I like the personal touch of seeing your writing and all that 😆
WE’RE ready for level 6…
I made it to the elite section.
Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV):
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
I mostly was able to follow along at Level 5/Expert, though not from having relevant post-secondary education, just having done a lot of certifications, watching YouTube, and reading/listening to many books.
6:35 heartening to hear/be reminded that more volume doesn’t always = more gains, as a beginner. Sometimes I wonder if I’m doing it “wrong” with my current PPL program, which is only every other day…so it feels like a LOT of time off. But I’m working hard during those sessions, AND I’m showing up for every one. So keep it going. It’s okay that I’m not hitting every isolated muscle multiple sets most days.
Thanks for this, Jeff! You're awesome 🙂
"Planet Ayurveda’s Muscle Strengthening Pack is amazing! It not only strengthens muscles but also promotes overall wellness. A must-have in my fitness regimen."
Wow, this was perfect! I understood best between novice and average. Im gonna try out that understanding.
I really want to tell you I appreciate everything that you do and the time you take for this.
I followed you up until the last section, just some of the words and scientific theory is beyond me. For now I guess.
Either way thank you 🙏
im ready for level 6
