There has been scientific findings that people that swear more are more intelligent, This 11 minute video just proves it! One of best basic, plain-jane instructional discussions I have seen in a long time. Thanks elitefts.
“I don’t care where you go with your mind for any max-effort lift but when the fucker starts to stall and stop, you get brought to reality REAL FUCKING QUICK.” FUCKING PREACH DAVE. Always spot on.
Wish I could train with him to get my powerlifting game up! such a legend, thanks for the information. As a healthcare provider, I feel like you know what you're talking about
i didn't know what i was doing called the max effort method .i use it throughout the year on 5 compound movements .i has given me good results .98% of all my training is 1 rep maxes .
at the end of the video you mentioned the GM wasn't a huge carry over when doing singles for max effort work, then said the better carryover was 5's. Earlier you mention that reps at high weight increase the likelihood of injury; therefore are you using the 5's as the main movement or as a secondary or auxiliary to the main movement? If you're using it as a main movement, are you working at specific percent, if so how are you basing this percent?
I would honestly say dynamic effort. I feel repetition will have a greater toll on your body over time; especially working with 60-70% of your max. Dynamic effort builds the explosive power youll need when your teying to get your 1RM out of the hole of your squat. Just a thought. Love from chicago 👊
I absolutely love the dynamic sessions. The Max Effort is always fun because it's different but the dynamic is where I feel the most power is really being manifested
Start by shouting at the top of your lungs the 7 words you can't say on the radio. Repeat twice once in morning and evening. Then make a conscious decision to curse at the smallest things. Like htting your shin on a bar, or missing reps in the gym you should have got.
He is talking about max effort only. As he stated at the beginning, building strength is the combination of max effort, dynamic effort, and repetition effort. The last one contains work on the 70-80% range.
Some confusion for me, if ME day's most important goal is just to learn to strain, why switch exercise? A new exercise may be a lower strain to one built up to already. I thought the switching exercises was to keep progression in ME effort continuing, not just feeling a max strain, so switching exercise made sense.
Probably to prevent overuse as well. While this does help with progression if you were to maximally strain on say competition deadlift every week it would increase risk of injury
I never got this. Maxing out 2-3 weeks in a row in 1 variation will only yield neurological adaptations that will go away the moment you stop doing that movement. Its not like youre building actual strength that you didnt have before, youre just learning to utilize the strength you have in that motor pattern. At least thats what i think 🤷♂️
@@deadcakesandpanlifts2019 it isnt necessarily done "every week." There are several different ways to program a conjugate type program. Sometimes coaches will program rep effort in place of max effort for several weeks. Or they may completely cut out max effort for a "deload". Or like dave mentioned max effort can be straining by making a sub maximal weight harder....IE tempos, shorter rest periods etc. Hope this helps
This is an 11 min clip. To truly understand the method , you would have to go to Dave's site and Westside barbell site read every article written on the subject.
Not to use the falacy of authority, BUT the experience is worth a lot coming from Dave Tate. I do not agree with everything he says but I bet you haven´t done 90% in a regular basis to be able to talk about it. I have had a lot more problems with +5 sets even mainteining my technique. So, if you believe is problematic in any way. Just presents arguments.
I have a huge amount of respect for Dave but he himself has said he’s had a fuckton of injuries, so him doing it does more to prove it’s dangerous than to prove it’s safe.
@@aidanorcuttpowerlifting6854 Powerlifting is dangerous. Any competitive sport is dangerous. If you want safe, then you're looking at being the average gym goer working 20-30 mins a day.
adr1an44 not really. There’s plenty of top level powerlifters that haven’t had nearly the amount of injuries he has had. I have a huge amount of respect for him and his core beliefs on the sport, but to claim something is safe because it’s the way he did it when he was trying to be the best in the world is laughable.
@@aidanorcuttpowerlifting6854 anyone trying to be the best in the world at anything is going to get hurt at some point. It happens. The accumulated fatigue, stress, and effort required routinely takes down world class athletes in EVERY sport. Some get back up and get back after it. Some retire. Some- if they have the passion for their sport, will go on to coach. But saying that the fact that he got injured in the process invalidates his training methodology is pretty ignorant and close minded. Would you turn down basketball lessons from Derrick Rose just because he hurt himself? Or are you gonna get out there and learn some tips from a former all-star?
