The first level covers the basics: you need to lift and eat protein. Level 2 goes one layer deeper covering progressive overload and daily protein intake (how much protein per day?). Level 3 covers effort, training volume, intensity, exercise selection and frequency. Level 4 gets more granular, describing exactly what causes muscle growth through a critical evaluation of the three-factor model (mechanical tension, muscle damage and metabolic stress). On this level, we address questions like ӷhat role does soreness play in hypertrophy?Ԡand Өow much is the pump driving muscle growth?ԠLevel 5 is a deep dive into the biochemistry of muscle growth: the physiological impacts of tension, amino acids (leucine, EAAs) and testosterone. 0:00 ֠Introducing the levels 0:30 ֠Level 1: Noob 1:25 ֠Level 2: Novice 4:23 ֠Level 3: Average 10:03 ֠Level 4: Elite 15:50 ֠Level 5: Pro חחחחח- References: Total Daily Protein Target: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28698222/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5828430/ Training Volume: https://www.strongerbyscience.com/the-new-approach-to-training-volume/ Training Intensity: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29564973/ Training Frequency: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30558493/ Rest Periods:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR94rNsArv0 />Tempo:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQxMvpe2lQ8 />Intensity Techniques:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri0v5-osLCQ /> Mechanisms of Muscle Hypertrophy: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20847704/ Muscle Damage: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30335577/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29282529/ *Footnote on Metabolic Stress: While I personally think it makes the most sense, it actually isnҴ perfectly clear if shorter rest periods do in fact increase metabolic stress compared to longer rest periods. For example, this study (https://sites.kowsarpub.com/asjsm/articles/57500.html) found that blood lactate levels increased similarly during a full-body workout when resting either 30, 60, or 120 seconds between sets. Still, since this study only measured lactate levels and not H+, hypoxia, phosphate, etc. I think the assumption that shorter rest periods would lead to more metabolic stress (via increased fatigue) is nonetheless a reasonable assumption in the absence of direct empirical data. *Footnote on BFR: Some might argue that BFR does actually enhance muscle hypertrophy, however, if that effect exists, metabolic stress hasnҴ been shown to be the main causative factor. Plus, BFR only seems to augment hypertrophy if the training methods are suboptimal (both light weights and far from failure).
