This is gold dust. When I was a beginner this is exactly what I needed to know to build confidence in the weight room. There are so many people who give bad advice in gyms, it’s really great to see the basics explained by someone who clearly knows what he’s talking about.

6 minutes to warmup. 3 minutes between workout sets for three sets= 9 minutes. So far 15 minutes plus the time for workout sets. For exercises, Squat or Deadlift, OH Press, Bench Press and Bent over BB Row. That's just over an hour. In and out. Longer if you do 5x5 or 12/10/8 reps.

@Thrallbra 3 года назад

So?

@georgeemil3618 3 года назад

@@Thrallbra Trainers at the gym and online forums say that you should not spend more than an hour working out. So...there's a lot of mixed messages.

@Thrallbra 3 года назад

When they say that, they mean time under tension/under the bar. With “normal” gym times and splits with shorter rest times. In strenght training the time under tension is shorter in a 2 hour Trainning than in a 1 hour “normal” training.

@benjaminandrews956 2 года назад

That's only true if you have some weird split where you're doing all of your heavy compound movements all in one day. If you have a more normal split like push/pull/leg you don't need to warmup the same muscles twice. For example if it's leg day and I warm up my deadlift I'm warmed up after that I don't need to do any warm up sets for my squats afterwards. And I'm not doing all the heavy compound movements that require warm-ups in one day.

@Sirvalian Год назад

So, 15 minutes for bench or squat... You don't really need to do much warmups for the exercises that come after. On the upper body day of benching for example I could easily be done in an hour. Pullup x3 + Bench x3 (superset) Machine chest supported row x3 + Machine incline chest press x3 (superset) Dumbbell lateral raise x2 (dropset) Cable lateral raise x2 (dropset) Cable reverse fly x2 (dropset) Face pull x2 20 sets total, easily done in an hour, do arms fresh on lower body days.

@snbforever 4 года назад

For deadlift I start with the 20 kilo bar, 15 reps. Then 60 kilo, about 12 reps. Then 100 Kilos, 8 to 10 reps. Then 140 Kilos, 6 to 8 reps. So far, 180 Kilos 2 reps, then pyramid down to failure every set. If I don't warm up enough, back hurts. Your input is appreciated.

@jaghad 4 года назад

Pyramiding up is a great routine. You get the mind-muscle connection running at the same time as you joints, ligaments, muscles gets warmer with every set minimizing risk of injury. The problem I have with your routine, because I've done a similar one, is that you do too many repetitions leading up to the heavy lifts, a lot of useless reps that only creates fatigue. This becomes a problem doing the really heavy weights because: 1. It's easier to get injured if your muscles' and nervous system's fatigued when doing the heavy lifting. 2. If fatigued you can't lift as heavy as you would be able to do if you were not fatigued. Thus, you will not be close to your full potential for muscle growth and strength. If I were you I would keep the model with pyramiding up. Every powerlifter, bodybuilder, olympic lifter etc. do them with great result, but I'd drop the number of reps for every set leading up to the heavy lifts. Experiment with the number of reps to find a better and "way" lower number of reps per set leading up to the heavy lifts. You want to achieve mind muscle connection and also be fully warmed up, but you can acieve that with way fewer reps per set. I usually do 5 reps per set pyramiding up. Doing 8, 10 and above makes me feel less fresh and more fatigued. When you hit your max weight times 2-4 reps do 2 sets at that level. Then drop the weight and do 5s for a few sets. If you then want to do a dropset you can do that and go to failure on every set. Doing so can however be very taxing in the long run so be a little careful doing so. GL! 😊

@bigt9905 4 года назад

Something tells me she can do more than 135x5...oh yeah, it's those quads.

@KarenCooley Год назад

Only been lifting for a bit over a year, so still feeling clueless... One of the warm ups was supposed to be 95# - it was just two 25# plates. So am I understanding this correctly - you always add the bar weight to your set? And that 135 working weight would be the two 45# plus the 45# bar? Mind blown... I always thought people only stated the weights they were putting on as the working weight, not the total!! Which means the other day, I had 150 on the bar for my deadlift - so my working set would have been 195?? Thanks!! :)

@BarbellLogic Год назад

Yes, definitely count the weight of the barbell (you are lifting it). You will find, as you potentially use different barbells, that they aren't all 45 lbs. EZ curl bars, for example, are typically ~15 pounds. There are 35 or 15kg bars that are a bit thinner. And safety squat bars are often 60lbs.

@ytano5782 4 года назад

After the empty bar (only to push the blood into the muscles), I do this: 50% Weight, 100% Reps 75% Weight, 50% Reps 90% Weight, 1-2 Reps For heavy doubles or triples (e.g. Squat, Deadlift), I do more 5-10kg steps at the end. Otherwise my CNS will fail 😂

@TAWN8711 4 года назад

So regardless if your squatting 135lb, 350lb or 660lb you follow this procedure? And Matt do you advocate any stretching before any lifting?

@BarbellLogic 4 года назад

If you're squatting 660lb, you'll need a few more warm-up sets, but not many more. You can just add a plate and a quarter each set. If you have mobility issues, you may need to stretch. For example, if you're just starting out with low bar squats, you may struggle getting into that position, so do the "low bar stretch."

@CitadelDefense1 4 года назад

After you do full squat work sets and you circle back around to do a working deadlift set, do you typically advise a warm up on the deadlift as well? Even if you are still warm from your squats?

@BarbellLogic 4 года назад

Yes, especially for heavy deadlifts. Also, the warm-up helps you practice the motor pattern before you get to your working set.

@kapilprasannaa 4 года назад

Do I have to warm up these many reps on deadlift, given that i do deadlift the last. I typically start with 135, and do either 50 lbs or 90 lbs inc and the third lift is my work set. 33, M, 200lb, back to being a novice.

@cnapoli 4 года назад

I don't think so. I think they produced this video under the premise that you're approaching each lift totally cold. If you're doing a program like Starting Strength where you've already squatted and benched/pressed, you don't need to do as long of a warm-up for the deadlift.

@Chris_Kwon_Do 4 года назад

I like to do a warm up on the first 2 exercises of my workout if they are big lifts. After that you should be pretty warm for the rest of your workout.

@freneticfanatic 4 года назад

Skipping warm-ups is also skipping some volume. This isn't substantial until you're lifting over 250lb/110kg but it still adds up. Also, for deadlift, this helps train your grip strength more linearly as the weight gradually increases. IMO, i wouldn't skip any warm ups and i don't have any of my lifters i coach do it, either.

@jeffreybabino1411 2 года назад

Hi how many sets with 45 pounds should I be doing thanks

@BarbellLogic 2 года назад

It depends (how old you are, how cold it is). You can do 1-3 sets of 45 lbs. Don't rest very long between. One indicator that you're not warmed up enough is that your first work set is harder than your 2nd & subsequent work sets.

@TomGibson7777TG 2 года назад

I think you said the Work set for DL is only 1x5? vs 3x5 why

@BarbellLogic 2 года назад

We have found that the combination of 3 workouts per week (typically) with 3x5 squat and 1x5 is enough. If 1x5 works, we'd rather do 1x5 than 3x5. Deadlift involves the most muscle mass and is therefore the most stressful. In general, we tend to program lower volume for deadlift than squat, even for advanced lifters.

@jeffreybabino8161 3 года назад

Is it necessary for a strength trainer to train biceps and triceps

@balwaann 3 года назад

You're working your triceps when you doing any pressing movement so you don't need to directly train your triceps but incase biceps you can train them if you want them bigger because pulling movements like deadlift and pullups don't work them much.

@acidreign6 3 года назад

Hi, yes it is highly important. Strong arms make a strong lifter. I'm biased towards training my triceps more but it's very important, also you want big arms if you lift. So train your arms!

@fly1ngpapaya 4 года назад

Sorry I wasn't specific. But raising it a tad can help with deadlift and there are thinner belts "Not as wide" for deadlift over squat like barbell logic said. I use an inzur which I just used caliper on and it's just shy of 4". There are some who wear it high and you can still brace. You want it tight but not tight enough you can't breath, enough to inhale and brace against and fit a finger under. You see people make it so tight they brace off a rack to cinch it down. Too tight.

@@BarbellLogic So you warm-up per normal with lighter lifts then 1x5 for training lift.

How can you do that if you just do 1x5 for the DL.

@BarbellLogic 2 года назад

@@TomGibson7777TG For a novice lifter, we simply recommend taking 1x5 and adding weight to it. That might start with 10-15lbs, and then it goes to 5 lbs until you can't do it any more.
