Elliot you are a consummate philosopher! Keep doing your thing!
Light weights are good to use the first 2 sets, then go stronger on the
last set, that makes you get stronger.
1:40 beast mode on!
So is Elliot pretty much saying to flex and squeeze and create tension with
all you got when lifting, regardless of the amount of weight? What exactly
does he mean? appreciate it if someone would fill me in, I’m new to this.
Thanks
I feel like people get to technical with this stuff. Just lift till you
can’t lift anymore haha. you will make gains
been 138, got to 148, i bench 185 and squat 205. im a skinny guy never had
a belly.
straight up, i work out to LOOK thicker period.
Timeless saying of “Lift larger get bigger” is what i’ve went by.
It seems that what you are saying helps when you are already near the shape
you want to fill, but want to rise above that plateau?
or am i wrong, and this light weights will apply in my situation?

He just went into super saiyan
Imagine if we can see Elliott, Hodge Twins, Mike Chang, Frank Yang, CT
Fletcher, Frank Medrano all in one video together. Men that’s like the
Dragonballs Z
hey man thanks for the new ideas
The good thing about you is that your not that person who is huge and have
no idea what your talking, your one of those person that is huge but also
smart
very humble approach. great video mayne!!
What people are missing is that the strength vs hypertrophy dichotomy only
applies at the upper end of physiological performance. If you take someone
who never worked out before, then you will build strength and size no
matter what you do. Only when you approach your physiological limit do you
have to make choices about what you want to maximize at the cost of
something else. In other words, the dichotomy only matters when you look
like Elliot. Until then, just keep lifting, and you’ll gain in both.
haha “i’m always contradicting myself everything is relative” . Good line
.He didn’t even have to think about that one and he has absolutely no need
to chop up his video to make him look intelligent wich he obviously is
unlike Mike “no abs” Chang
I’ve never fully understood why, but it is almost like i have to get two or
three solid sets in before I am even at full strength. Seems like the
larger muscle group i’m working the more of a warmup I need to be able to
comfortably move my working weight. I also discovered that for my large
muscle groups, 6 to 10 reps in 3 to 5 sets work amazing, but in my small
muscle groups, i get more strength and growth if i do 5 to 10 sets of 15 to
20. Everyone’s body is different.
SUPER SAYYYYAAAAAAAIIIINNNN !!
I’m new to your channel,great stuff.
+strengthcamp Hey Elliot could it possibly because the speed of the
movement? With a heavy weight you’re usually going as fast as you can
within the limits of proper technique (it may be a slow movement but the
CNS is still trying to move the weight as fast as possible), with a lower
weight you usually have to purposefully slow down and perhaps that’s why
you usually won’t see the same kind of strength progress from a lower
weight.
What if instead of doing a weight for 5 reps slowly, you did a weight for
12 reps much faster (so that you don’t have to do like you did in this
video and trick the CNS into activating more of the CNS?) I think that
might fire the CNS in a similar way. Thoughts?
BTW I train low rep and high rep/endurance (less than 3 reps usually or
more than 12) because I believe in most areas of life (especially sports)
that’s more than likely what the average person will require e.g. getting
into a high vehicle, squatting to pick something up, stepping somebody on
the football field, driving somebody backwards in a tackle, that sudden
surge of speed required to catch a wave while surfing or conversely walking
up a flight of stairs, following the play during football, walking up a
slight hill to the corner store, maintaining your position while surfing
with a current etc. personally I can’t think of many situations when the
mid range reps would actually come in handy and it also tends to increase
muscular weight unproportionally to strength. There are definitely examples
when mid range reps are king but they’re more likely the exception rather
than the rule.
I’ve lost weight but gotten stronger, with little muscular development.
Almost 2x body weight ATG squat and deep bench following this approach but
in the mid rep range I’m not very impressive but I can bench 90% of my body
weight a couple dozen times. Just wanted to ask, do you exclusively train
strength or a combination?
Dumbass
what people must take into account is that lifting heavy is manly as fuck.
1:36 I am sorry Elliot, you lack Saiyan blood.
so you can build muscle with 10 pound dumbells?
Bruce Lee believed in repetition he would often do 12 sets of 100 or
sometimes 100 sets of 12(reps) each time the weight would vary but some
times it was not very much weight but none the less he was doing large
quantities of lifting but in reps not weight and he was very strong
Your muscles don’t recognize the weight, they only know the stress they are
put under. That is why Time Under Tension and perfect form are the most
important when it comes to gaining muscle. I see too many people in my gym
lifting weights that are too heavy, with terrible form.. they won’t see no
kind of gains any time soon.
What is the best diet to drop 30 pounds, and workout to get cut.
Elliott was just wrong, he wont admit it. Yo body knows if u lift 315
