I hit push/pull/legs twice a week, basically 3 days on, 1 day off, 3 days on again. I have d. o. m. s. up to the day before I have to hit the those muscle again, bu no sore muscles in the bodypart I am focusing on on the day I train. About 200reps per week per muscle group, like pecs or quads. Reps per set I aim at stopping just before failing between 8 and 12 reps. Been back in gym since Jan/Feb after being away from bodybuilding for 10 years. Is this volume to high for me? I've been seeing good gains, 8kg up and that was after dropping 3kg a month ago, and still somewhat lean aroung probably 13% bf (1. 82m & 86Kg - I was 100kg, then dropped 23 down to 77kg in one year, and this year back at it again )

Matt im 15, 5, 11, 63kg and have been training for 3 months. I started by doing a push pull leg split once a week, then started wanting to do more so i did a shoulder push day and a chest push day. Then I got addicted and now I have been going 6 days a week for 3 weeks. I train properly at 5: 30am with a well structured programme and good form, play football 2x a week and eat really well, currently bulking on 3500-4000 calories (no supplements. Im putting on around 0. 5kg per week and am staying relatively lean because I was very skinny post training and train abs. Is it a bad thing to be training this? p. s Im addicted to working out and couldnt really do any less or I would go insane

I wasted 2 years of trying to get shredded as skinny fat as I was cutting, binging, cutting going out and drinking too much thinking its fine. Im 22 now finally flat enough slowly progressing on my bulk. Sometimes beginners need to shred first if they are really skinny fat like I was, but like you said Matt, I regret not bulking as I would of made a lot of strength gains even with gaining more fat. But we learn from mistakes. At least I learned a lot during that period about diet, nutrition, proper form which will lead me to nice bulk gains now and enjoying healthy lifestyle. Great content Keep them vidoes coming

Genuine question: Still somewhat sceptical about the 'making progress with the least training possible claim'. Surely if someone develops strength quicker on a more intensive programme (compared to someone on a less intensive programme) but both are making strength gains, then this won't inhibit the former. Ultimately I thought muscle will ultimately reflect the amount lifted assuming all else equal because the body will adapt to this either way, e. g. benching 100kg (no matter how quickly people attain that goal due to the intensity of the programmes they're running.

Hey Matt, Im 17 years old almost turning 18 soon and Ive been lifting for 1 year and 10 months now and I have made an okay amount of muscle. I weighed 140lbs last year and now i weigh 155lbs at an estimated body fat of 17-18%. My strength has gone from 115lb to 250lb Bench press, 185lb to 355lb Squat, and 205lb to 405lb Deadlift. Even though i probably gained 10-12 lbs of muscle and actually lost some fat since I was skinny fat should i lean bulk, maintain or cut?

I've been going to the gym for the past 3 months now, I'm 15. I've probably just wasted time because I am scared of eating a lot, since I lost almost 20kg before going to gym and I still have a bit of fat. I am scared to eat because I'm scared to gaining the fat back again, it was so hard for me to lose it and now I want to gain muscle, which I have, a little but only some lines not actual muscle. I don't know what to do.
