The hardest part about hypertrophy training is to not chase the weight increases because it only reduces the amount of stimulus of the muscle. Your videos help keep my ego in check and chase the muscular adaption through muscular stress as opposed to just chasing the weight lifted.

This video has such a simple and articulate way of explaining the differences between strength training and hypertropophy training without confusing the viewer with all of the details.

[HusangThat]

Also note that hypertrophic changes to muscle usually takes 4-8 weeks depending on rest, nutrition, and genetics.

I would like to extend my most sincere gratitude for the work you put in to keep a bunch of strangers on the internet well-informed. I'm currently a personal trainer, amateur bodybuilder, and I will be taking my CSCS within a month. Your videos do extremely well to keep me sharp and knowledgeable so that I can provide our clients--as well as myself--with the best training available. You're doing great things here. You will get the recognition you deserve, whether you want it or not. Keep Gainin'!

ive been wanting to train for hypertrophy but it seems like my training regiment has been more towards strength, thanks for clearing it up

[bradleygoins]

Just an update for current research on this video: Reps up to 60, being close failure also produces similar hypertrophic outcomes. Also, recently research is showing that about 3 minutes rest for hypertrophy is best! Great video!!

[andredubbs]

Man your videos are massively underrated wtf, great fucking info man

[GodSaveTheClothes]

Great explanation! I’m doing a 4 day split program that combines strength and hypertrophy. I’m seeing great results so far!

[robbieg]

I’ve watched hundreds of videos describing hypertrophy vs strength gains and this is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Super clear and concise.

[Mclxrendrive]

the fact that you're still hearting comments after a whole year is amazing, this video helped me so much

[xDuWuTang]

I love how much I managed to learn in such a short period of time.
Thank you so much.

[vezmusic]

i was thinking about hypertrophy training all wrong and have been stuck for years... thanks for this clear explanation.

[letstalkaboutit]

This has been THE MOST helpful explanation of how to train I’ve seen. I’ve made progress, but it fluctuates overtime because I just could never understand how to create an effective training plan, this has cleared it up for me so much!

[miguelargosino]

Thanks for another helpful video man! One year into training now and I for sure wouldn’t have gotten far without your helpful content 💪. Keep up the great work!

[Martin-ubci]

As someone who's been ego lifting for 10 years in the gym, I can say to you youngsters I'd have the same result in three years training smart. Don't be in a hurry.

[natashabartley]

As a newbie, this is THE BEST video I’ve found on this topic. Throughout while still being easy to understand. Thank you!

This was really helpful for my understanding of muscle building. I have some health problems in my mid 30s (33 here) and feel that I don't have too many more years left to improve my overall muscle growth and performance because of the stress that my health puts on my body. Switching my technique over the past month has already helped my muscles grow...I'm only 130 lbs and 5'9", but my arms went from 12" to about 12 &3/4" in just a month of hypertrophy training. Rather than aiming for the highest rep possible, continually adding gradual weighted resistance to my workouts every couple of weeks has really started helping me improve my muscle size and tone, and I also feel stronger (maybe even stronger than when I was a gym rat at 23 lol). It was interesting to learn about the biology behind the processes. Currently on a diamond press plan (15 reps/set at 4 sets with a now 23 pound backpack and 1-2 minute rest time). Started at about 20 pounds, but my muscles have been slowly adapting and growing.

[supercoiled]

Okay, wow. I'm seriously surprised that someone makes a video that isn't just talking about volume, loads, sets and reps, but actually about how much of a break you need between sets. I only once read an article that states that 30 to 60 seconds are best for hypertrophy and it kind of overlaps with what you're saying (1 to 3 mins). Thanks.

[RedHoodFH]

This actually helps me a lot.

I've been doing 8 sets of 6-10 reps depending on the workout but I've been adding weight every 2 sets so I've been combining the 2 instead of separating them.

Now I can do 2 days of strength training and 2 days of hypertrophy

[Satarnoch]

This is one of the smartest videos I've seen about the differences of strength and hyperthropy training.
