Often, people will tell you to, "GO HEAVY OR GO HOME" if you ever want to see results in the gym. But is it true that you need to lift heavy weights with low reps to see results? Or can light weights with high reps be beneficial as well? How about for muscle growth, strength, and endurance? Let's find out!

Another point I unfortunately forgot to discuss is that regardless of rep range, you should push your reps at least near-failure (with some benefit to complete failure but not excessively). So if you're doing 10 reps of something, that tenth rep should feel pretty damn difficult, almost as if you can only do one or two after.

Diet is the most important, definitely. But moderate to light weights might be good to help push yourself in the gym. Ie heaving lifting of only 4 reps per set might not make you sweat and burn as much calories as 10 reps in a set. Personally, I've found pyramiding, drop setting, and super setting is probably the best for shredding. Brings your heart rate up and keeps it up there, promotes hypertrophy as well as some strength gains.

Ive gotten way better muscle building results from moderate weight than heavy weight. And I can workout more often because the SNS doesn't have to recover as much from the heavy weight. I do up to 50 reps per set and my muscles are growing like a weed. And I am not a new lifter either.
@laptops4630
@laptops4630 4 года назад
Chrono its because of posture - it happened with me to. Its just that if you lift lighter weights you have a better posture
@chrono8233
@chrono8233 4 года назад
@@laptops4630 Totally agree that this is one of the reasons why moderate weight will work better for some people. Ive had several imbalances throughout my 15 years of training. I recently just bought one of those posture straps on amazon to keep the shoulders back. It was a game changer. Some people just have horrible habbits and posture can be a hard thing to master especially when you have been training with bad posture it only makes it worse and wose. But still the studies do show as long as total volume is the same, the same muscle is built either way. So its more than only posture.
@chrono8233
@chrono8233 4 года назад
Another reason lighter weight may work better is time under tension. Less weight, more you can control the tension up and down. Without periods of free fall

Another thing to note that I didn't reach in the video is that often going too light can result in difficulty reaching equal volume of a moderate or heavy program. Some studies noted that subjects employing a high-rep protocol often complained more, felt more burned out, and sometimes vomited. Things to consider when you're employing such a program yourself. Ultimately, the best goal is to do a wide variety of rep ranges that first cater to your goal and something you can do without hurting yourself. Good luck! Get your protein!

@NaumRusomarov
@NaumRusomarov 6 лет назад
I suspect that high-rep protocols can be hard on the cardiovascular system, especially if you're doing that under the supervision of a trainer, which might explain why some individuals felt more burned out or vomited. This scenario is quite typical for beginners in programs such as Les Mills Bodypump and similar cross-training programs. At the beginning the limiting factor isn't how heavy you can lift, it's how close you can push yourself without starting to feel like you're about to throw up or faint. Perhaps a more reasonable approach in a future study would be to first increase the VO2 max of the participants through some HIIT or equivalent cardiovascular programs, and then do the experiments.

Galen Sturup hope your day doing good, when you do compound movements like bench, squat, deadlift, back, shoulders go light to heavy with a 3 rep minimum and then next week give your body a break and do 10-12. Then switch back again to heavy alternating weeks. Then smaller muscles and non compound where you isolate that muscle keep it at 6-10 reps with the muscle under tention 100 percent of the time meaning keep elbows slightly bent etc etc and isolate the muscles the next week with 10-15 reps and get the blood in the muscle. Hope this helps

When you do lower weights, it’s very easy to go fast paced, because it’s so light. While that’s true, during your lower weight days, you should actually do your lifts slower to really target the intended muscle you’re trying to hit.

The most annoying thing in the world was when every meat head in there at one point in time had walked up to me telling me im not gonna get any results the way I was doing it. I think some people over complicate working out. Stretch, dont hurt yourself and push yourself. Too many people wanna act like their way is the only way because they assume you want the results they have.

Nice one man. Great video. This explains why bodyweight athletes can have a good muscle mass using VOLUME (they can go for 300/400 reps) and this also explains why advanced bodyweight athletes add to their routine weighted reps (normally dips, pull-ups and squats). In the end there is no answer but just... It depends

@PictureFit
@PictureFit 6 лет назад
Depends on my previous knowledge and how quickly I can access and read the information. I typically sit days without writing a single line for the script because I'm busy trying to extrapolate and understand all of the research. It takes much longer if there's a lot of conflicting information. Something that is more straightforward, I will read for an entire day and then starting putting pen to paper the next. Scripts in total takes the longest, roughly 3-4 days. I base my sources on many factors, such as peer-review, authors that I believe to be knowledgeable + willing to accept when they're wrong (hugely important), randomized trials, non-conflicting funding sources, and have multiple other studies showing the same effect.

Mr IY go light as more muscle mass will make running long distances less efficient. You need type 1 fibres

@nootnoot1463
@nootnoot1463 6 лет назад
Mr IY You can still lift heavy dude. I do a lot of triathlon and cross country so when I do gym a few times a week I lift as heavy as possible to make it more interesting and add a bit of variety. Plus I just find it more fun. Don’t be afraid of putting on muscle, unless you’re super elite at one of them you can lift and run no problem.

Nigel Kushington You also need type 2. A 5km run isn't that far and power would factor into it. Plus it's not like you can just increase the amount of type 1 fibers anyway unless you believe in muscle hyperplasia in humans

@mahmoodrezavaziri9625
@mahmoodrezavaziri9625 6 лет назад
ass to grass is wrong because of two things. first you bounce at the bottom which is unhealthy for knee and also stops the constant tension. Secondly there is a higher chance of butt wink which ruins ur lower back.

@beefy32
@beefy32 6 лет назад
From personal experience as long as you lift with strict form and go to failure on every set then the weight does not really matter. As long as you get the pump, that feeling that your muscles are tight and filled with blood, they should feel really full then growth will happen. There will be a point that a light weight will feel like a heavy weight near the end of the session.

This makes sense, I play a sport where I get to throw a lot, and due to workload I got a shoulder injury. I was referred to a physio therapist who said, my smaller muscles are not as strong and are over worked, I am guessing he was referring to type 1 fibers not being strong enough. He told me to use light weight and do about 30 reps or until your shoulder is tired (whichever comes first). Thank you for this video.

Bryan Van Esterik late, but i'd stick to bodyweight exercises (I assume you're like 13-14 cause male and spurt going on) and when it's done by 15-16 or whenever everyones diff hit the gym up. Most importantly tho diet is everything

I really like this video thanks very simple and straight forward and the conclusion is exactly co-rrelated to the type of training a lot of gold medallist/champion level athletes do, very their training according to their goals, even among the same sport, let's say strongman, football (soccer), swimming etc... You see people with complete different routines! Now I wonder what type of body do you get when you do lighter weight up until you can do a lot of reps like, 25, for example, and then increase it and repeat. So for instance Step 1- you starting weight is 5kg Step 2-train until you can do 25 reps 1 set (to put an example, maybe higher or lower depending) Step 3-increase it by, let's say, 1kg-5kg. Step 4-Repeat from step 2. I really would love to see what type of result you'd get like this :P I might try it just to see, sounds like a good experiment that would serve everyone, including me.
