Both are good. I personally prefer my own plan because I have honed it to my own specifications after years of use. This gentleman also wants to sell a product and advice (I can't blame him, everyone needs to make a living) but as a result his particular recommendations may or may not be the best you can choose from.

Either way, you can approach things from either avenue and see great results.

Our plans are slightly different in the set/rep scheme, as well as the rest between sets, and so forth. But the actual way to perform the exercises is done virtually the same, controlled movements focusing on the pump.


Thanks!

Yeah, he's trying to sell products, and I hate that, you don't know all how to do with just that little what you get in videos, so no need that.

I will continue with your plan, I really like it. :)

The thing I will try to do now, is to really think what you're doing, really think what muscle is being trained, use good form etc, all what he say in his videos!

hey raynor the diet you helped me make is working well. been following it 2 months now without breaking it. strength has gone up a shitload (bench from 90>100kg, deadlifts from 170-185 and squats from 130-150) along with a 4-5kg gain in weight.
anyway i had another quesiton. i have started playing soccer for my university and the trainings are pretty intense, lots of running/sprinting/cardio etc...im concerned about losing muscle from entering a catabolic state etc...would it be wise to take bcaas intra-training?
if so how much and how do i go about doing it? (i have no experience with supplementing with bcaa's.)

thanks

p.s

[Perform all exercises as follows: 1. Warmup set (15ish reps light weight), 2. First set (wait about 30 seconds after warmup, then do 10-12 reps medium weight), 3. Second set (wait about 30-45 seconds after second set then do 8-10 reps medium/heavy weight), 4. Third Set (wait about 1 minute after second set then do 85% of max weight for as many reps as possible until failure, rack the weight, wait 5-10 seconds and get it again for as many reps as possible until failure), 5. Fourth Set ( wait 1 minute after third set then do the Same as third set), 6. Fifth Set (WITHOUT RESTING after the fourth set, cut the weight in half and immediately go until failure again).


for your hypertrophy plan (the one above) how long do you rest between switching exercises. eg from incline bench to flat bench?

Hey there....yes BCAA intra training will be very wise for you.

I would advise doing one or two things.

1. Better method - BCAA Powder (optimum nutrition brand), mix 10g BCAA with gatorade and drink throughout your soccer training (this will last approximately 2 hours).
2. Lesser method - BCAA-1000 caps (optimum nutrition brand) take 2-3 capsules before, every 45 minutes, and after soccer training

Yes, there are two things you should do.

First of all, WEAR GLOVES!! Yellow kitchen gloves are acceptable for dishwashing, protect your hands, and also are hygienic.

To do this properly for the next few days, yes - you can use vaseline, but I recommend shea or cocoa butter as these are not petroleum based. Get these at any major retailer.

Next, when you are working, make sure to wear the yellow or green NITRILE kitchen gloves. This will help you out a lot. These are also sold at walmart/target/etc.
