Im still an alpha destiny fan personally. Full body twice a week with Intensity day and then volume day. Recovery is very important to see strength and muscle gains. His Naturally Enhanced program got me strong and huge Weekly records set on all lifts. No plateaus in almost 2 yrs. Crazy traps and thick upper back/shoulders. Lots of overhead pressing volume. This seems like too much work with not enough rest. Ill stick to 2-3 days frequency training.

Of course, throw in a very small number of isolation exercises for lagging muscles, but 90% of a program should be big lifts. This is not to hate on Menno at all, seems like a good dude, but I question whether he could hit 400-300-500 (squat/bench/deadlift. If Im wrong my apologies, but I dont think you can say you are advanced until you can at the very least hit those numbers (dependent on body weight, but guessing Menno weighs at least 180.

Nice guys, certainly knowledgeable, beautiful location. But Im sorry, kind of gimmicky workout. Squat, bench, deadlift, overhead, pull-ups, rows. Nobody wants to hear it but consistently progressing on the main lifts, eating well, and sleeping well, will get everyone, including advanced trainees like Menno (Im sorry Menno but you arent really advanced) far better results. Everyones going to hate on me, but its true.

Wow thats a lot of good information. Implementing all of those principles to aid growth into a program makes workouts pretty long if you also want to build up the main compound movements (DL, Squat, Hip Thrust, OHP, Bench, chin-up, dips. Integrating those details can help for those who are already advanced I believe. (Im not advanced, I just do work in the Gym to complement my swimming training)

I have never seen butterfly laterals before. I struggle to get a pump in my shoulders and have tried many different exercises over the past 7 years of lifting. Even when I go 25-30 reps, no shoulder pump. I just did butterfly laterals in my workout today and got a sick shoulder pump and a burn like I'd never felt. Thank you, Menno and Jeff. Thank you. These are going to be a staple.

No disrespect to Jeff because I know hes just a guest and it's not his training regimen but I think Mennos routine is straight garbage. Seems like it's all machine work for the most part. I was hyped for this video until I saw the exercises being performed. I'd rather see a good solid body training routine based on the best exercises to maximize muscle development.

Hey Jeff, could you do a video on muscle soreness/inflammation? There are a lot of contradictory studies on whether or not soreness is necessary for muscle growth. A lot say that soreness does not equal muscle damage; however, they have also stated that inflammation is needed to build muscle. Any kind of insight on this topic would be awesome

Jeff, I have your advanced PPL split and love it, BUT my question to you is, with the recent debate over if deadlifting is good for bodybuilders, why did you choose to include it? Many have recently argued its a high risk low reward movement and shouldnt be trained unless you have powerlifting as a goal in mind

The fact that protein synthesis stops a certain amount of hours after working out doesnt mean that all of your systems have recovered. Also protein synthesis occurs anytime that you damage the muscle fibers because your body has to repair and this doesnt mean that supercompensation aka growth has occured.
