@Evanthesurfer 2 года назад

@@DylanDocker 5x5 is pretty damn good for strength but not as good for hypertrophy. the way i think of it (which is a little less precise than someone who has a better scientific understanding) is that in a 5x5 you are prioritizing fatiguing your nervous system to exert a higher amount of force for less time, allowing you to lift heavier weight; but you are not necessarily maximizing your time under tension as you would in the 6-15 (or 8-12) rep range which would result in more hypertrophy. I use both ranges depending on excersise. the important thing is to train in alignment with your goals. bigger isnt always stronger.

I got 25 right and I went from super weak to 80% of the "bros" numbers in 4 months. RU-vid works as long as you bust your ass and don't half ass in the gym. Let's see if the bros can even do 15 which I doubt they can, cz they don't even know how different rep ranges affect differently.

@SnuggleM0nster 2 года назад

@@JeffNippard One thought I had taking the test and watching this video is that there are a lot of concepts that I understand and make use of in my training but haven't bothered to internalize the specific terms for. I'm not a professional or particularly highly educated on this stuff so knowing the proper terminology has never been as important to me as straight practical application. There were a number of questions that I feel I got incorrect or had to guess on because I wasn't sure which concept the terms were referring to even though I had the science right in my head. For example, I'm pretty confident that if the 'internal cueing' question had been worded using common language instead of jargon I would have gotten it correct. Not to say that familiarity with terminology isn't important or shouldn't be counted as a part of "muscle IQ" in this context, but something to think about regarding test results imo. Overall super interesting quiz and video Jeff!

I think your test should have had an "I don't know the answer" option. I know that for me personally that there were a few times where I just made a random guess. And after watching this video, a few of them were correct.

@ArYouHam 2 года назад

@BRANDT9877 2 года назад

But you wouldn't know who is being honest and who is still guessing to try to increase their score. Without the option you at least know roughly what percentage of people would get the answer correct by guessing

@l.p.7585 2 года назад

This is a common feeling amongst survey participants but good survey design actually accounts for this. If 'I don't know' is included, a lot of people that have a gut feeling but are low-confidence in their answer will use 'I don't know' (to them, 'knowing' something is a matter of confidence in being correct) and feeling or tendency, regardless of how small, wont be captured. On the other hand, survey designers will include a question essentially asked twice, first in a 'positive' way, then in a 'negative' way. Whilst it's easy to assume that people get the same answer asked twice correct twice or wrong twice, actually it's almost never the case. The 'noise' of a data set is partially estimated from how much this conflict occurs. For example, if you measuring awareness and perception around a disease, you can ask 'you can tell a person has a disease by the way the look T/F' and 'symptoms of this disease require specialised education to recognise T/F'. These are very similar questions that people would likely answer opposing, however answering TT or FF could be used to indication how difficult the questions was to interpret, or how many people didnt really read the questions, or how many people just answered at random. however, including 'I don't know' would be a very easy way for people that are unsure or uncomfortable just skip the question, which would lose valuable information on people's perceptions/biases, which is often half the point of a survey.

@ArYouHam 2 года назад

@pantarhei7 2 года назад

I wouldn't use that as an option, but I would suggest either putting there the instruction, that if you don't know, just don't click anything, or include a small "skip" button somewhere on the page. Btw, I didn't know few things at all so I just didn't chose any option and I could still complete the test.

I'm definitely not smart because when I started I didn't take care of my diet and sleep schedule... Those were my two main mistakes. I always thought I was eating enough and was disappointed because my weight stagnated. Then I got my first diet plan created (I think it was from Nextlevel diet iirc). I realised that my previous food intake was way below my needs, although I thought I'm good. At the beginning it was hard to eat 3300 kcal in a day, but I got used to it. I started noticing real gains, and it felt amazing. I wish I'd understood the importance of diet earlier.

@@UberBossPure it depends on his priorities I guess. For most people it is easier to gain more strength over the same period of time when in a caloric surplus. If he isn't overweight and weight loss isn't one of his goals then definitely it could be a good idea to have a surplus anyway. It's more motivating especially for beginners to have more energy in the gym and see those numbers go up faster.

I’m 5’10”, weigh 180 lbs and bench 225. I have always struggled with bench, feels like I’ve tried everything and nothing seems to work for me, my other lifts keep progressing with a 435 lb squat and a 451 lb deadlift (I deadlift intermittently). What do I need to do to progress it? I was thinking of shifting my focus from strength to hypertrophy for a while and then coming back to strength later, or starting a bench focused program. It feels embarrassing to have one of the weakest bench presses out of my serious weightlifting friends and I want to change that, what do you recommend?

Jeff, you're the best source for bodybuilding on the internet. This quiz was great. Quizes on which muscle is worked the best by which execute would supplement this science-based quiz.

@seanissomething 2 года назад

I only got one question wrong - I knew the soleus was primarily slow-twitch, but I said 55-70% instead of 70--96%. Great test, would love to see more!

@Nixxxy24 2 года назад

I think 55%-70% is likely more accurate.

@jonathanandersen945 2 года назад

This test was fun and very humbling! I found myself going "pff this is easy" to only getting around 60% right, even though i expected to get at least 80% right.

Have you considered collaborating with some researchers? You have such a great data base. Very cool seeing the results and the editing is chef kisses as always!

@sublimesense7761 3 месяца назад

one of the options for question 12 was "doing the same load and reps for a lower RPE" which is not a form of progressive overload, so I selected that answer choice

@bankdude78 Год назад

Jeff, did you take down your quiz? If so, I’d love for you to post it again. I enjoyed taking the quiz every six months to see how I was retaining the information from your videos. It would be great if the link was still active for the quiz.

@PresterAdams 2 года назад

so Jeff, i was wondering: for simplicity lets say i only train cablecross chest exercises: if i have a cablecross at home, i could potentially train 2-5 minutes over the whole day everyday instead of compressed sessions 2-3 times a week (you would normally do if you go to a gym). in those 2-5 minutes i do warmupsets and DO train with a very high intensity. so are both methods viable or is one much better than the other? i figured since you are the most sciency fitnessyoutuber i know i ask you.

@scoochalot8486 2 года назад

i would think as long as you apply progressive overload, it doesnt matter, as long as youre able to do it consistently (though im relatively new to lifting weights, i come from boxing lol)

@jose_villagomez 2 года назад

Great video Jeff, as far as “Internal cueing” goes , I find it a very beneficial tool to use when barbell back squatting to push my quads till failure. Something about flexing and squeezing at the top makes me develop much more tension , after my quads are giving out on me I pretty much just use external cueing to just get the weight up and ultimately having to leave the weight on the ground. A great pain but well worth it! Thanks for your interactions with your subscribers as always!

@docd2295 2 года назад

Was disappointed with my 66% but I missed about 3 questions purely because I didn’t understand acronyms. There are some things a person needs to know, like anterior deltoid. But other things are just industry jargon, like AMRAP, which I had never heard of in 15 years in gyms. I appreciate the test being made but maybe try to keep the questions focused on what makes the muscles grow, not the words used to talk about that.

@medievalastronaut5605 2 года назад

not to call out your audience but I feel that question 26 (the one about expected reps on 80% of one rep max) is a good measure of how many people's knowledge is purely theoretical and how many here actually lift!

@marcusosborne6123 2 года назад

I don’t know about that. I’ve been lifting for a couple years and I got that question wrong. I just don’t test my one rep max, so I had nothing to compare it to. I’m sure other people are the same.

@deerk5874 2 года назад

Hey Jeff! Love your vids. Did I start doing a push pull legs split too early? I've been only training for less than 6 months. I'm fairly consistent with my workouts and train as close to failure as I safely can on compounds. Should I change my split and if I do what do you recommend? Thanks!

Results represent the score of a specific target audience which is people who either follow you (mostly) or are already interested in fitness. If the quiz was taken by the general population, I bet the gauss distribution would be tilting more towards the 40%. Great video tho.

I regret not taking the test when I initially saw it announced months ago...but I think I did well when pausing at each question. The acronyms and advanced questions weren't too relevant to me, as a blue collar guy worming out every other day mostly and on my off days doing 30 mins or so of deep stretch yoga, but deff worth the time to listen and learn. Thank you Jeff

I have a lot less confidence in my programming and training knowledge than I do with my nutritional knowledge, but still managed a 22/30 with a misinterpretation of one of the "hard" questions. Happy to see I've picked up a good chunk of knowledge, much of it thanks to you, Jeff. Cheers.
