The linked video is titled:
6 Principles of Muscle Building
Here are my notes:
- first, focus on getting strong before getting bigger
- the foundation is the big 5: squat, dead lift, pull ups, overhead press, and bench press
- strength is a prerequisite to size
- more weight
- more reps
- more sets
- focus on strength first, do not get distracted
- #2 use compound movements over single arm
- the heavier you can lift, the deeper
- #3 prioritize recovery
- muscles grow outside the gym
- sleep and nutrition
- kick ass for an hour a day, recover the rest of the time
- you need to be in a calorie surplus to put on muscle and get enough protein, fats
- focus on gaining about 2 pounds a month and focus on getting stronger
- #4focus on volume and intensity
- volume is weight * reps * sets
- #5 increase resistance
- if you are not lifting heavier weights consistently, you will not make gains
- #6 have regular deload weeks
- play the long game
