Under-training?

[Calves of Steel]

Completely disagree with this philosophy! MOST people trying to get big overtrain. Too much volume, too much effort, much longer recovery time, and the net result is not as good. Depending on genetics, juice, and calories most people still tend to do too much. My roommate does 20 sets of chest every workout, I'm doing closer to 10 with similar intensity. Any more than that and I get crazy muscle cramps all day afterwards, and those cramps mess up my shit up really bad and cause recovery to take way longer. Chances are though, if you're getting DOMS from every workout, you're doing too much. It's one thing to repair, and it's another to repair and get a bit bigger.

Well the way you wrote it it seemed like you thought it was impossible to overtrain your muscles which we know isnt true. Thats what i was getting at. I agree that a lot of people do their workouts with zero intensity and then wonder why theyre not making progress

I understand now bro. What I'm saying is 95% of people undertrain. Sure you have your idiot CHEST/ARMS everyday overtraining those bodyparts. But the vast majority of people train with no intensity, structure or end state(goal), that's why there are the same fat and or skinny people in the gym every year never changing

That's all I see in the gym now is a shit load of undertraining... That's why 90% of people look like shit

My post from the beginning of thread. Point being most people are too worried about overtraining when they should be worried about undertrainiing... Unless ur blasting one bodypart 3-4 times a week, as long as ur diet is on point with sleep you will grow and be fine. How fast u grow is based off genetics

I do believe young kids especially get Adrenal burnout from WAY to many pre workout stims. Those things are horrible for ur nervous system and should be used only when absolutely necessary, cuz they will fry ur nervous system

There is no such thing as overtraining. There is just under eating and under sleeping... Firm believer in this. A lot aid people stay in the gym for hours doing random sets that's not over training that's just wasting time.

Bull***t
