Here are some things you "science" based lifters won't ever understand:
>What you call "half-repping" is actually just hitting the muscle sufficiently. If you stop at technical failure you can still hit the muscle even harder by not doing the full range of motion, turning it into a superset
>You will never get big by "main"-gaining
>There's no need to do Upper/Lower or PPL. If you hit the muscle good enough you don't need to hit it 2-3 times a week
>Only protein from milk/meat/eggs actually works
>As long as you hit your macros and get your protein from sufficient sources it doesn't matter what the frick you eat
>Anabolic window is real

is this what that sam guy believes
i only vaguely know of him
sam uses 2x/week frequency, does maingaining while calling it bulking/cutting, and doesn't care about the anabolic window
so no
>does maingaining
>doesn't gain shit
is this how it's supposed to work?
>>Only protein from milk/meat/eggs actually works
That is actually true though. I can easily see it in how my wounds heal.
>>Only protein from milk/meat/eggs actually works
moron.
It works best because guess what, the human body is made out of meat.
You mean like cows?
moron vegan frick.
the chart originally comes from Walter Voegtlins book Stone Age diet iirc
He's right, you seething vegan Black person.
t. Myprotein shill
I don't use Ghey powders.
>t. semen drinkers
Lmao. You whey-bashers are pathetic.
Why so skeptical?
Sam trains everything twice per 8 days.
He can get away with it because he's a trenBVLL
No one cares you pathetic e celeb simp. You'll never get laid. Only a pathetic insecure homosexual like sam would do tren. See photos before use lol. And underage homosexuals think it's cool
Pic related?
Is that really Sam?
Holy shit, the "myth" that bodybuilders look skinny with their clothes on is true! Lmao
those clothes are obviously baggy and he doesn’t look skinny at all, go outside
You're right
He doesn't look skinny he looks fat
>>Only protein from milk/meat/eggs actually works
So whey is ok since it comes from milk?
>There's no need to do Upper/Lower or PPL. If you hit the muscle good enough you don't need to hit it 2-3 times a week
Is this regarding hypertrophy or strength? Seems to me that in order to get faster strength gains you need to hit a muscle twice a week.
It depends on your strength level and goals. Intensity (i.e weight) is more of an absolute quantity, so beginners and intermediates are better served pushing frequency and/or volume harder. For examole, regardless of whether you're a rank beginner or really fricking strong, deadlifting 120kg x5 is low intensity in terms of load on the body so a beginner will be able to work at a higher %age of their max with greater frequency than a 300kg+ deadlifter.
>so a beginner will be able to work at a higher %age of their max with greater frequency than a 300kg+ deadlifter
Ah that makes sense, where certain powerlifters will need a full week of recovery if they do extremely heavy lifting/pr's.
That's actually comforting to know. I switched from 3x per week to 2x per week but made sure to do the same exercises each workout except for deadlifts/squats who are on their own day. So it's like a full-body workout. The routine i had previously had A/B/A, B/A/B, so i would sometimes only hit a muscle once week and i wasn't comfortable with that myself. Personally my legs need more rest than my upper body, so changing the routine was "optimal" for my wishes and needs.
It's not regarding anything. There are people getting exact same results in a 10 year span doing completely different training methods from 1 day a week to 7 times a week or maybe even 2 times a day. This is the problem with exercise science, that its not real science. It's pseudoscience. What does "optimal" training even mean? If optimal is 100%, then 99% or 98% results are sub-optimal. They are inferior. But they are still pretty fricking good and practically the exact same.
And then we have variables. If you are able to get 100% effort workouts on your preferred routine/frequency, you are going to get better results than doing the "optimal" routine with 80-90% effort. You might enjoy pushing yourself more when you are doing 3 exercises instead of 4. Because when you do 4 you subconsciously start sandbagging etc.
If there was a clear cut best way to train, everyone would train like that. But because exercise science is not real science, there are no hard concrete evidence support that THIS is 100% undeniably best method. Again, some people get best strength results training muscle once a week, some twice. Some even three times. It literally doesn't matter as long as you do it right. And people just intuitively do it right on their preferred method.
You're right that people focus on the optimal way too much. I think the brosplit hate is a good example of this. Sure it's sub optimal, I just said above beginners should aim for more frequency above, esp for strength (
).
but if you go to the gym with the mentality of fricking sending it on a given muscle group once a week and absolutely hammering it 110% you will make good progress. It's fine.
This anon knows. Exercise science is largely nonsense.
>t. BS in exercise science
post timestamped body
1x a week brosplit is great and I'm tired of pretending it's not
>at least I look like I lift in clothes
>the look
Also the frick is he wearing? Please tell me this is a bad Halloween costume and not his street wear
thanks sam
>>Only protein from milk/meat/eggs actually works
This is really bad news
Lmao he looks pretty dyel and homosexual with clothes on
You have body dysmorphia you moron.
I'M A BARBIE GIRL IN A BARBIE WORLD LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC
he's more like hobo he-man
window is real
please elaborate here
To be a good bodybuilder you have to think like an engineer, not a scientist. Science is gay.
That gayGET looks like he stinks
