Building muscle hasn’t changed in a very very long time
We need to do hard sets , and do them often , we do as many as we can that we can recover from based on the frequency we are training at
That’s been around for 30/40 years since things have been documented effectively
When this stuff gets posted , just ask yourself , Did anyone that was ever legit big get distracted by this shit ? The answer is no , and then crack on just doing the work because how to build muscle is never ever going to change lol
Thank you for this, everytime when Im starting to fall into these rabbit holes you always help me

I think I already know my volume and have done for about a decade
This part is so key , based on your lift progressions , surely you know what you can and can’t do recovery wise right ?
So when these “ new phrases “ come along , why would you even react to them ?
Surely you have felt out what to do in your own training ?
It’s all just the same noise , but in a diff way , why are you being distracted by it ? What you gonna do? Now cut your volume to one set ?
No ,
Your going to change notjint as your volume is based on your own frequency and lift progressions , ( I hope )
Yes that´s why I’m on this page an made tramendous progress
sometimes I start to read articles and those new things really hit my mind

I remember the quote you say in lattest upper video, why would you take financial advice from someone who is broke, endless talking who is right, who is wrong. Golden

I think you would improve more yes , but only if it doesn’t cause you a ton of stress from over thinking stuff, which I know you really do
You could probably do push pull legs push pull legs rest .
I normally would never suggest that , but I think it’s defo better than what you have suggested , and then vary the emphasis in the push sessions to get the arm focus you want, so one sessions starts : pushdown then dip , then ether chest press or shoudler press next . And the other push is a more conventional , chest / shoudler / tricep compound , then isolation after
. You could also easily start each pull session with 2 sets biceps and it not impact your lifts and end again with 2 more
Thank you very much Jordan

I think you should train the way you enjoy buddy , it’s working , you have built a tremendous physique , that’s why I can take the piss out of your splits like I do . Just keep going
Jordan do you think I will benefit more from pure PPL?

Thank you very much! You are the reason why people think I’m not natural, you are my biggest inspiration

Tobi knows exactly how to train, he knows my approaches to things inside out , and he does have a really great physique too tbh , way way way better than he should for the way he trains
, but that’s a sign he trains damn hard and just Forces his body to grow
Thank you Jordan, I really appreciate it from you

I think it’s awful , arms the day after all the pressing in chest and shoulders and then 2 sleeps again to push , legs once a week . None of it makes any sense , and the ability to progress is very low , im not going to bother offering an alternative as you don’t listen lol
It has legs 2 times since the pull + leg is like you do

Rest today , body feels decent , knees and elbows both ok
So for tmo leg + back , will start with my back work , it feels smoother , it’s likely I will stick with 2 leg press , but I was keen to see what a scaled back to 1 felt like
Leg curls I will keep at 1 rir , they are hard to recover , and it’s all mid peg / setting 1 , so nothing overly lengthened based training
This should be interesting to see how much change again I can get into my legs ( obv back too ) , but I am really heavily leg / glute focused atm.
The training is defo hard to recover from as 3 on , with that set up , both cns wise , but also joint wise , but I can feel it’s doable , I just need to make sure I’m getting enough sleep and managing stress as best I can
I’m filming wed , so that will go up here , and lots of the athletes slots have been booked to go up in here too
Hello Jordan what is your main dictator of if you can recover? Lifts progression/soreness?

Hello Tobi.
I do yes. But I am very very careful while training : spend much more time to warm up, I am using for sure my sleeves on that day, cause fatigue car put yourself in troubles.
Also to sleep better, you have to cut boosters, caffeine, and also stop using screens before going to sleep.
Bad technique but efficient : close the eyes and count the sheeps.
You need to empty your mind from thoughts and listen your breath
Thanks

Hiya Tobi,
No one absolutely HAS to push up and gain muscle or diet and lose body fat. If you’re happy where you’re at with the amount of muscle you have on your frame then there’s no need to push up kcals. You can absolutely chill at maintenance and live your life! Same goes for body fat. If you’re happy with your look there’s no need to diet! If you’re looking to compete then that’s another story and you’ll most likely need to assess your physique and see what phase would be required to improve for whatever category you wish to compete in.
Thank you very much for both replies!

How old are you? Being very lean can definitely negatively impact test levels. How lean are you ? Do you have pics?
