Do you have to train to failure to gain muscle?
-
No, but you'd be a lot cooler if you did šŸ˜œ
-
Here's 4 reasons why I'm choosing to go RPE 10 on 95% of my lifts:
1. Standardized progression
2. More effective reps per set
3. Less overall volume/time in gym
4. It's more fun
-
1. If you always go until you can't, and you keep your form the same, you know if you got stronger and increased your reps week to week. If you leave reps in the tank, there's always doubt how many were really left
-
2. I get all 5 effective reps out of every set and maximize my stimulus, even if I incur more fatigue. Which leads to
-
3. I can do less because I can get almost the same number of effective reps as doing 2 sets @ RPE 8. 5 for one failure set vs 2x3 effective reps when staying 2 shy of failure
-
4. I LOVE getting in the zone and training hard. Just giving everything I've got and knowing I'm done with that for the day. It fuels me.
-
Ultimately I think #4 is what makes the biggest difference. Cuz it gets me to show up and give my all every day. And consistency wins.

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR LIFE THROUGH YOUR ACTIONS
-
It's easy to play the victim and act like life happens to you and you have no control over anything.
-
It's hard to take ownership when it feels like the universe is working against you. But you must.
-
No matter what happens do you always have a choice ā€“ how to respond
-
You can feed into the negative energy and wallow in self-pity and wonder why me? Or you can think of your next action change that luck and set you on a new trajectory
-
Start acting as if you do have control and put more positive energy out into the atmosphere and universe I'm gonna come back to you tenfold.
-
This is especially true in training. Get the plan, follow the plan wholeheartedly without question, and see what happens.
-
You know that if the actions you laid out were the correct ones the results were only be positive.
-
Trust the process. Have faith in yourself. Take control of your actions. Take control of your life.

How do you perform your RDLs? Well whatā€™s the intent of the movement? Are you targeting maximum strength output or muscle recruitment? Watch to find out how to perform to differentiate between the two

We are all striving to be the best moving athletes we can be, and we desire top quality movement, but how do we get there? Often, we get frustrated when we try drills and canā€™t get them right away or seem to make no progress on them. With warmup drills, balance is often an issue and we panic when we fall off balance. Here are reasons not to panic and how to be ok living in a movement spectrum

Today I wanted to give a little info on getting your workouts going in the right (wrong) direction.
Backwards movements in Oreo have really helped me to get the right things turned on faster and set me up to be in a better position for my lifts.
Why is this?
From my experience, I would say that a lot of it has to do with PRI concepts of returning our center of mass over our mid foot and using heels to integrate hamstrings and glutes, and anā€referenceā€ to some of our regressed partners of finding references behind us like a wall or block, etc
For more info on cutting edge warmups and QUICK integration, check out theyā€™re much smarter and explain it more in depth than I
After a couple rounds of this (please donā€™t spend more than 10 minutes warming up ever) Iā€™m ready to go and get back into patterns that promote performance
