    “Renaissance periodization has jumped the shark” - Alex Bromley. Any thoughts on this video?

    @gracious65 He's wrong about all his big claims, you should leave that echo chamber.

    Is 3 hours in the gym too much?

    @asdtmr12 No one needs to spend that long in the gym. Long rest periods are good, you're likely doing too much volume if it's taking that long. I do 3-5 minute rest periods with warmups for everything and I'm out in 60-80 minutes usually.

    @gracious65 He isn't using science, he just claims to be. It's all Chris Beardsley's science fiction

    My extremely weird workout split that worked wonders for me

    @kent1956 Fitness is one field where almost anything works over time and that anecdotal experience can lead someone to think that what they're doing is good because they have seen results. But this is absolutely terrible. Most of what you're doing here will be providing no stimulus whatsoever...

    “Renaissance periodization has jumped the shark” - Alex Bromley. Any thoughts on this video?

    @tay796 Been around for 4-5 years at least. I follow a lot of natural competitors, everyone is aware of the trends and science in this industry etc. They are all aware of the way Mike trains and promotes yet I've seen none of them implement any of it. Funny that isn't It. Almost like it's all...

    “Renaissance periodization has jumped the shark” - Alex Bromley. Any thoughts on this video?

    @auxier587 That's not the stuff they have problem with. And that can be taken to extreme levels like in the video where too much ROM Just ruins the movement and limits progress.

    “Renaissance periodization has jumped the shark” - Alex Bromley. Any thoughts on this video?

    @lamporful They discredit the knowledge because the knowledge itself seems to suck and thus no natural serious lifters are training that way. Yet someone on a fuck load of drugs can absolutely train that way since the bar is set so much lower for what works.

    @victoriousinchrist And the rest... And the times he's flip flopped on all that multiple times sometimes in the same video.

    PSA: if you workout in a small secluded gym, don’t do supersets and hog 2-3 machines

    @aeri20 Just don't do supersets full stop, it's limiting gains

    Should I do 2 sets with 8-12 reps and then 1 set till faliure

    @froggyfan1 You should be doing every set to or very close to failure (0-2 RIR). If you've been leaving reps currently then I recommend doing 2 sets both to 0 RIR and you'll probably end up with more stimulus from less fatigue.

    @moomoo5987 All the popular? He's only called out Paul and some of the dogmatic science gurus who absolutely need to be called out for being dogmatic on very limited data.

    When working out 3 times a week what is the best number of exercises per each day? 6? 8? 10?

    @bingsta Doesn't matter, it's about volume per muscle group depending on the split. My leg day has 4 exercises, my push day has 6 or 4 sometimes depending on how many sets per exercise.

    4 - 6 exercice per muscle by workout ?

    @solokwa Yeah id agree with this, can't think of a reason to ever do more than 6 per muscle, 4 is enough on most things for me. I do treat back muscles separately tho so 4 for traps/rhomboids and 4 for lats as there isn't much overlap here.

    Can I replace squats with hack squats?

    @revealedtruths Yes, expect significantly better growth and progression in your Quad development once you do. It baffles me how things like a Hack Squat aren't already the go to leg movement in gyms, they are just so superior for hypertrophy in every single way.

    Interested to know what splits you guys are running with atm

    @vincentpellerin Do you repeat the same workouts or have a Push A / Push B when you repeat etc?

    @plans4good Aye, content creation that's highly profitable needs to constantly confuse viewers in order to stay relevant. Just putting out useful basic content runs out quickly. That's why you have a lot of the science channels putting out content very quickly that's always some new trendy...

    Continue the cut or switch thing up

    @michaelsikora I think you're more like 15-16% not 11%. I'd continue cutting to around 10-12% then bulk. Lots of benefits to starting a bulk from that range.

    am I doing enough sets for hypertrophy on push and pull days?

    @goldengirl34 Are you limited by equipment in any way? That volume is enough but I don't think the routine as a whole is very well rounded. Especially if you aren't changing exercises as you alternate push/pull days. Lat Pulldown and Row are general terms and you should definitely be performing...

    Opinion on my diet

    @rose112165 As long as you're getting some micronutrients from veggies and aren't going extremely low in any fats or carbs, it largely won't matter even in a cut. Eating clean from fresh food or mostly processed food and ice cream won't matter as long as you avoid extremes. Obviously avoiding...
