appreciate your info and effort into sharing knowledge, but i have to say. waaay too pretentious and borderline narcissistic/vain for my liking(that's my opinion, do we really need the TV style intro. with many posing pictures? .sweet mother of god, .just present to us the relevant info and we'll be on our way. i understand you have a big following, prob mostly females. we don't need a 3 minute highlight reel of every pose and muscle shot. we know your jacked bro, i have eyes. i'm also jacked, many dudes are jacked, your not the only one(in the words of john lennon. nothing more cringe worthy than a dude who loves himself too much. if you need to do it off camera in your own time. peace out. humble yourself.

for you guys trying to make some muscles for the summer. It is workout and Steroids which makes them immensely big, therefore they need a lot of food to fill that mass. Just eating a lot won't make you big and muscular, will just make you fat, produce more oxidation in your body, disrupt your hormones (actually the ones that build muscle, be less sustainable with the environment and waste your money. If you're not competing for a bodybuilding contest and not taking steroids, then just eat clean, eat normal, try some techniques like intermittent-fasting or keto diet, and you will see awesome results. And of course workout and consistency. Good luck

Hi Jeff. Great and informative video as always. :D I have a question that i can't seem to find any answer for in the litterature, so i'll just give it a go. If one switches from a very low volume training program to high volume, will this swtich cause a noticeable change in glycogen storage and therefore weight gain? I currently went from a very low volume & high intensity program to your LEGS/PUSH/PULL. I noticed a 1-2 kg. weight gain 2 weeks in to the program and thought that it might be water storage due to an increased use of muscle glycogen in order to be able to handle more reps and work.

I saw a study where the optimal protein dosage is somewhere between 1. 1g and 1. 4g of protein per lb of lean body mass. Realistically, most ppl recommend 0. 8-1. 2g per lb of bodyweight, look at this180 lb Person 20% Body Fat (Lean Body Mass 144 lbs)0. 8-1. 2g Per lb of BW = 144-216g1. 1-1. 4g Per lb of LBM = 158-202gFor Leaner individuals the difference between these 2 formulas will be more (0. 8g per lb of BW might not be enough) but as u can see for most ppl within 15-25% Body Fat the protein dosage is actually relatively similar

With regards to the second Bro Jeff point on the On/Off switch, I generally apply the rule that thinking of anything at all that is rooted in human biology as an On/Off switch as primarily untrue. Of course there will be exceptions but the vast majority of physiological functioning works across a spectrum. People are obsessed with reducing the complexity of theses topics into easy to understand information but it creates false dichotomies and a loss of nuance with respect to the truth of the matter. Good work as always Jeff Thanks again.

1: 55 Regarding the frequency and novelty of jeff: You have probably also realized that it's only funny because it's extremely out of character for you. I might go in a completely different direction and start maybe adding him in as a character for cutaways, like for example if you're doing a Bench press tutorial video and you wanna show people what some common mistakes are you could have it transition to a segment of jeff exaggerating what not to do while you narrate over it in your regular voice.

You don't have to eat big to get big, but it's worked very well for me so far. Keep in mind that I am quite young and have a fast metabolism (also engage in regular sporting activities. I haven't had to worry a lot about diet, and eating a lot coupled with training has wielded great results in terms of mass and strength. This will not continue to work so well in the future. Along with this, I recover very quickly and am able to comfortably work with higher frequencies of heavy training.

4: 30 Why? Read that same article again. It says if you're in a CALORIE RESTRICTED STATE, theeen 1. 8-2g/kg/day is only SLIGHTLY better to reduce muscle loss and aid in fat loss. 1. 3-1. 6g / kg / day is the way to go for maintenance and bulking. It just doesn't make sense otherwise. Neither financially nor scientifically. & With the fist study you showed saying 1. 6g/kg/day is optimal for maximum muscle protein synthesis, then why not just stick with 1. 6 lol. The science is RIGHT THERE.

Thanks for the awesome content Your videos have greatly helped me. Question: : 16: 02 1 kg vs 3 kg of muscle mass is a significant difference between lean bulk and dirty bulk - How can you imply using this data that muscle gain was Slight? (i agree that gaining fat isnt desirable but from the data it seems like dirty bulk is leading to almost 200% more muscle gain in absolute muscle mass terms - if Muscle/fat ratio is compared numbers would be different though)
