What's so special about muscle failure?

>>76536669 (OP)
it maximizes hypertrophy because it causes your body to go
>OH SHI-
and adapt because it thinks you just escaped a lion.

>>76536686
You’re body doesn’t think it doesn’t have a brain

>>76536698
Grow up.

>>76536669 (OP)
is this that dyel mcdonald guy talking about the big 5 is not good?

Failure allows you to reach mechanical tension with high motor unit recruitment, which drives hypertrophy through myofibrillar protein synthesis pathways.

>>76536707
You grow up, it responds only to force production requirements. I know this, you know this, what's more to be said?

>What's so special about muscle failure?

>body fails to do what you tell it to do
>body decides to get stronger for next time

more autistic retarded bullshit methods invented by roiders to look like they have some secret muscle building secret that nobody else has. howcto build muscle: lift the weight. everything else is nonsense

I would like to inform that lyle doesn't doesn't recommend going to failure all the time but you should know where failure is so you can get close to it

>>76536815
doesnt matter, im not listening to some skinny ass dork about lifting weights

>he doesn't train until muscle success

>>76536669 (OP)
His point is not that you should always train to failure, it’s that you should know what true failure actually looks like so that you don’t trick yourself into ending your sets at what you think is 2 RIR when it’s actually like 6.

>>76536669 (OP)
there is nothing special about it, all it does is maximum damage to your muscles, thats it, that is why you get gains, you fuck up your muscles and then they repair and get bigger, no other magic behind it

>>76536834
yea, and it looks like its paying off big time for him according to OPs picture

>>76536841
He’s just an old bipolar guy who writes diet books and plays Batman Arkham games all day, be nice

>>76536698
Most cognition is done by gut flora, you can completely replace your personality and aptitude by getting a poop transplant.

>eat shit faggot
>problem?

>>76536841
Solomon Nelson is his natty BFF. If you want to be big have better genetics and or take steroids.

>>76536848
Lmao where does he mention arkham games?

>>76536698
your brain is part of your body, duh...

OP, every person who's achieved anything in sports of any sort, has had to suffer defeats along their way. There is no muscle success without muscle failure.

Fitfluencere get worse every year. Rich left a massive hole that no one else will ever fill

Damn he must have been fucking your mom 24/7.

The only one that hasn't is alex leonidas, I actually think his content has gotten better and higher quality over time.
We'll never have shit like the jenova crew, or pianoman again.

>brain has meta awareness of what you're trying to do
>it stops protein synthesis
>you have to split your consciousness to hide your true intentions

>>76536783
Can I trick my brain through drugs, like taking shrooms and getting into a psychosis thinking a lion is chasing me and about to eat me while I'm actually rolling on the floor?

>>76536985

Alpha Destiny is still a little cringe but he is impressively dedicated and keeps it real. The problem is everyone but him and like 1 other guys are fake natties selling bullshit.

>>76536669 (OP)
proper mechanical tension

>>76537057
I don’t remember, it could’ve been one of the Solomon Nelson vids or some random podcast. I listened to a bunch of stuff a while ago in the background while working, he mentions videogames every now and then but the only one I ever noticed he mentioned by name was one of the Arkham games and he said he beat it 6 times or something lol.

>>76537204
>watching a wigger talk about how whatever PR he hit is the new bare minimum standard for the average guy

Need a velocity tracker to use RIR and RPE so you have some sort of objective feedback mechanism. Most people are just winging it and want nothing objective about their training. Need to measure and track results.

>>76536669 (OP)
>What's so special about muscle failure?
Most practical way to be certain you recruited and fatigued all the motor units in the targeted muscle

>>76537028
why do these lads look so regular?

>>76537793
I think Solomon is quite handsome no homosexual

>>76537873
Just think about it. Jewtube fitness wars is a Kike and his poojeet friend against a fat kike who advertises for gatorade. It's surreal.

>>76537793
Left is no roids. Right is no-roids and terrible genes.

>>76537873
Idk if Lyle's gay (i strongly suspect he is) and that's why he's been able to coax him into this.

>>76536698
Maybe yours don't.

>>76537228
no but you can blast gear

>>76537873
I agree, no homo tho

>>76536669 (OP)
Autists are unable to gauge intensity without it.

>>76536669 (OP)
Nothing and everything. It's a relative point upon which all your other work is based. You don't have to go there you just have to know where you are relative to it.

Ironically, his legs, especialy calves, are the only impressive muscles he has, probably from his skating days (ie, volume).

>>76536698
Yeah, your skull is empty. It shows.

Question for low volume niggas:

How many exercises do you typically do in a session and how many either overlap or work the same muscle group repeatedly?

>>76542136
i know an ifbb mp pro whose youtube preaches low vol workout during off season, and when i work out with him, he does insane amount of warm ups and feeler sets til he reaches his top set (to go to 4 plates, he goes from 1,then 2, then so on). that being said, he only did 5 exercises for his chest and we ended in about 70min with 2 sets per exercise excluding some stretch and some foam rolling time. as for overlapping, it's bound to happen whether you do traditional splits or PPL.
