Is one rep max beneficial for bodybuilding? 🤔👀 #shorts

"The risk of that does not outweigh the reward" - Chris "One Take" Bumstead

Easy to say that when you can do 6 plates squats for reps lol

[mpmd.]

"Well I can do your 1 rep max for 10 reps, does that count?"

[natepolidoro]

"I don't 1RM squat bc it's terrifying." Damn he's right.

[kellen_hendrix]

I only one rep max when I’m deep in the cheeks

The biggest guy in my gym does like 5 plates sumo rack pulls and I thought it was impressive, but then teenage Cbum pulling 5 plates conventional full rom.

[jonatkinson]

Agreed. For me deadlift feels the safest to max out on. Squat and bench I maximize reps.

[patricklus]

Wow someone finally mentioning rep ranges and how they correlate to strength and/hypertrophy 💪🏼 👏🏼

[hjorth]

Some insightful advice by cbum. The biggest risk for high rep vs low rep is if you’re doing more than 12 reps, you can get mentally fatigued easier or lose concentration. Low reps you risk compensating your body and injuring to move the weight.

You should bring back top 3 exercises👍

Honestly, a well spoken take and real insightful depending on how you wish to carry yourself in the gym.

[nens]

Not to mention the fact that you can still gain lots of strength by training for hypertrophy but the strength gains aren't as much but it's still worth it because it's risk free

First time I’ve heard your voice and I’ve seen you in videos for years on stuff like MPMD… makes you seem like a real human… much respect

[JamieMarksify]

This guy seems so humble compared to most other bodybuilders

[alanmorton]

Wow a body builder and person on YouTube making fitness sense . Just about fell of my seat !!

[LPme]

Most people in the gym need to hear this advice. 99% of people don’t care what your one rep max is.

I love that almost everyone in the fitness industry has an opinion on squat bench or deadlift being a dangerous lift to either perform or max.
Yet the amount of people who think any given lift is too dangerous seems to be about equal to the others.

[JoshAndrettiFitness]

I wish I saw this yesterday. I did 3 sets 1 rep @ 500. I’ve literally been in bed for the last 6hrs

[marcosoto]

i love that he has a lisp. it makes him seem so much more normal

[apollochandler]

I agree, as someone who blew his stomach out deadlifting, the risk for 1 rep max is not worth it, I 1 rep maxed 480lbs dead list, 2 surgeries later I still cant deadlift.
