Huh. I think the most useful thing I got from this video is that progressively overloading on form/tempo is just as valid as overloading on weights and reps. I've been focusing hard on increasing weight/volume, and then once I get to a point where my form is just shit I drop 20% and try and focus on form. It was rather discouraging. I'll probably do more or less the same thing, but with less drastic swings now. Which will help in sustainablity: )

I am not a fan of the failure sets only on the final set, I am more of a fan doing a failure set of 3 max weight sets in a row, once in the beginning of your workout after a proper warm up. I will do my max and 110% effort with a dramatic 5-6 min rest period. This way your doing failure sets with perfect rests when your at full strength early on. I do the same for legs with a leg press, 1 leg at a time max and failure at 8. 5 reps.

Jeff Nippard can you please do the Fundamentals series chapter 2. This was very solid information bro I was a little confused and what i thought was right was out of order and this video helped so much to clear things up. That's why I'm asking for Part 2 or Chapter 2 to make sure I don't keep doing the wrong thing just in case I am sometimes I feel like I'm running in circles and not progressing

I really appreciate this video, and I'm sure I'll be able to say the same of the rest of them also. It's hard enough trying to discern good information from bad information when you're starting out, let alone compile it into a manageable series of overarching principles by which to to operate; you did a great job of that. I'll be referring to this video regularly. Thank you.

I really enjoy the mindset you have of less black and white advice and more Find what works for you but you also give the basics and why. This mindset makes me more excited to experiment in the gym instead of feeling frustrated because I cant follow someone's advice to a T. Love your videos, please keep doing what you do, you are an inspiration and very motivational

Can you do more fundamental series episodes? I really enjoyed the first one and I think a lot of people out there need help structuring their workouts. Personally I have a few years of lifting experience but a lot of it was under the instructions of coaches and I need advice making my own plan. I like how you start from the ground up in this video.

one of the biggest issues I have had this second time of reducing body fat is constipation. Thankfully granulated dietary fibers are a fairly cheap thing you can buy from the pharmacy. It also helps with bulk and reducing hunger. Ingest before eating dinner is my current prefered method. I specifically use sterculia rubber.

Jeff, you mentioned Prioritization as part of POP and used chest (which is a large muscle) as an example. However if I would like forearms to be my focus to build muscle, do you suggest I prioritize forearms first? It would seem that if i did that, then i would struggle through the rest of my upper body workout.
