[00:00:00] Hey, that is Muscle for Life and I’m Mike Matthews. Thanks for becoming a member of me at present for an additional Q& A episode the place I reply a bunch of questions that folks have requested me over on Instagram. If you wish to ask me questions, go to Instagram, observe me at muscle for all times health, watch my tales.
And each couple of weeks, I put up a narrative asking for questions, get a bunch of questions, after which. I select ones which are fascinating or topical and reply them briefly there on Instagram and put up all the solutions as tales after which convey all the pieces over right here to the podcast the place I can reply the questions in additional element.
And so at present I might be answering questions like my ideas on kettlebells as a main supply of resistance coaching, TRT, am I on TRT, If I’m not, would I think about TRT? Underneath what circumstances would I’m going on TRT? I even have a query concerning shoulder ache, particularly high of the shoulder ache and deal with that.
Lengthy size [00:01:00] partial reps versus full vary of movement reps, which must you be doing? And why colostrum supplementation is it pretty much as good as many individuals declare? Whey versus casein for muscle development and extra. Earlier than we wade into at present’s episode, I have to inform you a few new liposomal vitamin C complement that I take day-after-day from my sports activities diet firm, Legion.
And why do I take this day-after-day? As a result of analysis reveals that supplementation with liposomal vitamin C can help immune operate, improve antioxidant safety, help metabolic well being, improve iron absorption, and extra. And the way does it do all these issues? Vitamin C is an important nutrient that performs a vital function in many various bodily processes, together with neurotransmitter manufacturing, collagen formation, antioxidant exercise, immune operate, wound therapeutic, and iron [00:02:00] absorption.
And whereas it’s straightforward to get sufficient vitamin C via your food regimen to satisfy the really useful every day allowance, the RDA, of between 75 and 90 milligrams per day, and should you try this you’ll stop a deficiency, Analysis means that this will likely not produce optimum well being and longevity, particularly for energetic individuals.
Which must be the final word objective with our diet, help optimum well being and longevity. Subsequently, if you wish to keep an consumption of at the least a number of hundred milligrams of vitamin C per day, which is advisable for a number of causes, particularly for energetic individuals, That may be troublesome to do via food regimen alone as a result of it requires consuming a number of servings per day of meals that many individuals don’t eat or don’t actually prefer to eat, together with citrus fruits, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, strawberries, Brussels sprouts, and extra.
And should you love these meals and eat a [00:03:00] lot of them, you is perhaps getting sufficient vitamin C. You is perhaps attending to a number of hundred milligrams per day simply via your food regimen, however many individuals, even individuals who eat nicely don’t. Additionally, it’s a must to Needless to say fruit and veggies usually include much less vitamin C than they did up to now.
And that meals processing strategies can take away as much as 50 % of the vitamin C from meals. And people are the principle explanation why many well being acutely aware individuals who eat nicely, like myself, additionally select to complement with vitamin C. Now why liposomal vitamin C relatively than ascorbic acid or buffered vitamin C or one other kind?
I do know it seems like advertising gibberish, however it’s truly not, as a result of liposomal vitamin C is vitamin C that has been encased in liposomes, that are microscopic spheres fabricated from phospholipids, that are molecules that consist primarily of glycerol and fatty acids. [00:04:00] And analysis reveals that this liposomal type of vitamin C is extra bioavailable than extra frequent kinds in the marketplace, like glycerol.
Ascorbic acid, buffered vitamin C, and even pure sources like acerola, cherry extract, and rosehip powder. And so what which means for you is that with liposomal vitamin C, you may get higher advantages with smaller doses. And that helps stop gastrointestinal issues related to superdosing vitamin C.
And so if you wish to see what including some additional vitamin C to your routine can do for you, you may get 20 % off your first order of legion’s liposomal vitamin C and all the pieces else within the retailer. If you wish to purchase anything by going to purchase legion. com slash vitamin C that’s B Y L E G I O N.

BigTim27 asks, Lifts over 80 and by that he means 80 % of 1 rep max or Round 8 rep max for most individuals, 8 reps to failure, is it okay to do decrease rep units and simply add extra units to equate quantity? And by that, he means doing, let’s say, 4 reps or max 5 reps per set with the burden that you would do 8 or perhaps even [00:06:00] 9 reps with.
Slightly than pushing proper as much as failure, perhaps doing 7 and even 8 reps together with your 8 ish rep max weight. Now so far as constructing muscle goes, the issue with doing simply 4 reps per set together with your eight rep max weight versus seven or eight reps per set. is twofold. One, you might be doing fairly a bit much less quantity by way of complete weight lifted or you would have a look at it by way of complete reps.
Although your complete units are the identical, the quantity of labor that you’re making your muscle groups do is considerably decrease if you’re doing simply 4 reps per set together with your eight rep max weight versus six or seven or eight reps per set. In order that’s the primary a part of the issue. And the second a part of the issue is as a result of doing simply 4 reps per set with an eight ish rep max weight doesn’t convey you very near failure.
These units aren’t going to generate As highly effective of a coaching [00:07:00] stimulus as units that will convey you nearer to failure. So doing six, seven, and even eight reps per set with an eight ish rep max weight. And that’s vital as a result of these final couple reps in a set taken near muscular failure are extra productive if we’re speaking about muscle hypertrophy.
They’re extra productive of muscle development than the primary half of the set, than the reps that you just do which are straightforward and aren’t even near failure. Now, that’s to not say that the primary half of each set or the primary three quarters of each set doesn’t generate any significant stimulus in any way. It does generate a coaching stimulus.
Nonetheless, nearly all of the stimulus that’s going to provide Progress that’s going to get you larger and stronger goes to come back from the minority of reps that you just carry out towards the tip of the set as you strategy [00:08:00] failure. And so then coming again to the query, which is principally, are you able to simply do extra of this submaximal coaching the place you aren’t pushing near failure, this decrease depth coaching, are you able to simply improve the variety of units that you just do?
To equate the quantity by way of complete poundage, that will be the best way to do it. So by the tip of your session, you didn’t come near failure in any of your units. You left 4 and even 5 good reps nonetheless within the tank in each set, however you elevated the variety of units. So the entire poundage lifted is the same as what it could have been should you would have taken your working units nearer to failure.
Should you would have achieved the additional two or three and even 4 reps per set relatively than the 4 reps per set. And so the reply is sure, that’s viable. That does work to a degree. It really works higher with power coaching, with pure power coaching, the place you might be actually simply attempting to get stronger and any muscle development that happens is only a [00:09:00] byproduct of chasing the objective of getting stronger.
But when your main objective is to get larger and also you think about power as extra of a byproduct of getting larger muscle groups. So perhaps you might be following a bodybuilding program or perhaps you might be following a hybrid power and bodybuilding program, an influence constructing program. Because it’s often referred to, and all of my packages principally that I’ve created are energy constructing packages, a little bit of pure power coaching, a little bit of bodybuilding, and so if you’re extra curious about getting larger muscle groups than you might be in simply rising uncooked power, then you need to know that hardly ever or by no means pushing even near failure, not to mention to failure in your working units.
might be going to provide inferior outcomes, produce much less muscle development over time. Even if you’re equating quantity by simply rising the variety of submaximal [00:10:00] units that you just’re doing. And so in case your main objective is to get larger and your secondary objective is to get stronger, then I like to recommend taking all your units shut ish to failure.
Anyplace from zero good reps left to perhaps three good reps left. And the three can be extra appropriate to your massive compound workouts like your squat, your deadlift, your bench press, your overhead press, and your zero can be extra appropriate to isolation workouts with smaller muscle teams or truly simply isolation workouts basically.
Consider a leg extension, for instance, that’s coaching the quadriceps. That could be a massive muscle group, however you possibly can safely take that proper as much as failure. Zero good reps left. The place you possibly can’t even end the ultimate rep of the set as a result of it will get so exhausting with no threat, you’re not going to get damage doing that.
Whereas doing that on a barbell again squat is riskier, particularly when the weights get [00:11:00] heavy, particularly whenever you get stronger. I feel there’s a level. The place it’s not well worth the threat until you’re a aggressive power athlete, and that’s simply a part of the sport, however should you’re not, should you’re simply an on a regular basis fitness center goer or a life-style bodybuilder, the dangers related to pushing your heavy units of your squat of your deadlift of your bench press of your overhead press to failure the place you possibly can’t end the rep or perhaps even Zero good reps left.
So that you end the set however you nearly missed it So the dangers related to coaching that intensely on these workouts aren’t well worth the negligible rewards in comparison with ending units with let’s say one or two or perhaps even Three good reps nonetheless within the tank Now, that mentioned, the submaximal fashion of coaching that I used to be mentioning beforehand, the place you permit 4 plus good reps nonetheless within the tank [00:12:00] in each working set could be helpful if you’re feeling bodily or psychologically ragged, your motivation to coach is non existent and you actually need to skip the exercise.
Slightly than skip the exercise, how about you simply make it simpler and a simple solution to make. A weightlifting exercise simpler is to go away extra good reps within the tank, extra reps in reserve in your working units. So relatively than pushing exhausting on that squat to, let’s say one or two good reps nonetheless in reserve, you finish every working set with 4 reps in reserve, or perhaps even 5 reps in reserve.
You’re nonetheless utilizing heavy weight. You continue to are getting some quantity in, however it’s simply fairly a bit much less quantity. And people units are clearly a lot easier. It’s going to really feel extra like a deload exercise or one thing in between a deload exercise and only a common exercise. And that may be [00:13:00] sufficient to take the sting off of the session and simply show you how to get via it.
Okay, Daniel Mufti 1 asks, Mike, reaching 40 and now I really feel a little bit of hip ache, like a pinch. What do I do? So the very first thing I might suggest is to evaluate your decrease physique mobility and your flexibility. Flexibility turns into extra of a difficulty as we become older, particularly as we practice for longer intervals of time and perhaps we don’t have excellent motion patterns and we’ve developed some imbalances.
And so if you’re experiencing some hip ache, actually of any type, I’ll wager that there are some important deficiencies by way of mobility and adaptability which are contributing to the issue. And I’ve skilled this myself. For instance, I used to have considerably worse inner rotation on the left facet of my hips than the suitable facet of my hips, and that was inflicting low again ache.
Additionally, SI joint ache, notably related to deadlifting. [00:14:00] And as soon as I labored on that and improved my inner rotation, That downside resolved. After which extra lately, additionally on the left facet of my physique, the tensor fasciae latae muscle, the TFL, has been aggravated. That may additionally piss off your SI joint as a result of it’s supposed to assist distribute the hundreds that you just place your physique below.
Correctly and evenly on each side of that joint. And that has been partly as a result of my hip adductors, ADductors, the muscle groups that convey your legs towards the midline of your physique. have been fairly rigid. My, my butterfly stretch was fairly unhealthy. And so I’ve been engaged on that stretch for a number of months. I’ve gotten it a lot better and that has improved the TFL stress, which then has improved the SI joint operate and scenario, lowered the quantity of discomfort that I really feel once I do sure issues, sure positions, [00:15:00] it’s not all the time.
And in addition what has been serving to with the TFL is therapeutic massage. Along with that, the psoas muscle on my left facet has been notably aggravated and so therapeutic massage has been serving to that rather a lot as nicely. And so inside a few months, the SI joint saga will lastly come to an finish as soon as these few muscular points are resolved.
And this stuff occurred as a result of I used to be pushing it exhausting in my coaching a while in the past, notably with deadlifting. And the discomfort was rising and it was pushed by. These muscular points and I used to be being cussed and principally simply ignoring the rising discomfort and attempting to stay to the plan and push for PRS and so forth.
And fortuitously, there was no acute harm, however there was some extent the place I made a decision to cease ignoring the rising discomfort as a result of it may result in an acute harm. And [00:16:00] usually, merely stopping what’s aggravating, no matter the issue is sufficient to resolve it. Usually you don’t should do anything, actually, you simply cease doing what’s inflicting the issue, and also you simply discover various workouts that don’t trigger the Aggravation of no matter space of the physique that we’re speaking about, or perhaps on a scale of 10, it’s like at most a 3.
It doesn’t ever get to even ache. Perhaps it’s simply slight discomfort. And also you try this for lengthy sufficient and the problem simply resolves itself. Nonetheless, that doesn’t all the time work. Generally you do want a selected intervention to get again to regular. Generally it’s therapeutic massage. Generally it’s stretching. Generally it’s bodily remedy.
And if an issue doesn’t simply resolve itself inside a few months, it’s good to start out trying into these interventions, and you can begin with issues that you would be able to simply do at residence, like stretching, like therapeutic massage, which typically you possibly can [00:17:00] do your self with a therapeutic massage gun or a lacrosse ball, you possibly can obtain the identical impact.
Generally, although, you want any person to work on you since you simply can’t get to the affected tissue or the required tissue correctly. And so then if you find yourself attempting these totally different interventions, it’s vital to grasp that you just’re on the lookout for fast enhancements inside a few weeks of standard stretching or therapeutic massage or bodily remedy, no matter it’s, not main enhancements, however noticeable enhancements inside a few weeks.
Should you’ve been doing one thing constantly for a few weeks and also you’re not noticing any enchancment. It’s most likely time to look elsewhere. It might be a distinct intervention or it might be a distinct muscle group that it’s good to goal or it’s good to embrace in your routine. So in my case, engaged on the TFL therapeutic massage, it’s serving to.
Nonetheless, if I didn’t additionally deal with the adductor [00:18:00] problem, it most likely wouldn’t be sufficient. The issue would most likely simply persist the place I might get a little bit bit higher with the therapeutic massage after which a little bit bit worse due to the adductor problem and you’ll simply. Rinse and repeat that endlessly.

We are going to wrap up at present’s episode shortly, however first I have to inform you a few new liposomal vitamin C complement that I take day-after-day from my sports activities diet firm. And why do I take this day-after-day? As a result of analysis reveals that supplementation with liposomal vitamin C can help immune operate, improve antioxidant safety, help metabolic well being, improve iron absorption, and extra.
And the way does it do all these issues? Vitamin C is an important nutrient that performs a vital function in many various bodily processes together with neurotransmitter manufacturing, collagen formation, antioxidant exercise, immune operate, wound therapeutic, and iron absorption. And whereas it’s straightforward to get sufficient vitamin C via your [00:34:00] food regimen to satisfy the really useful every day allowance, the RDA of between 75 and 90 milligrams per day.
And should you try this, you’ll stop a deficiency. Analysis means that this will likely not produce optimum well being and longevity, particularly for energetic individuals, which must be the final word objective with our diet help, optimum well being and longevity. Subsequently, if you wish to keep an consumption of at the least a number of hundred milligrams of vitamin C per day, which is advisable for a number of causes, particularly for energetic individuals, that may be troublesome to do via food regimen alone as a result of it requires consuming.
a number of servings per day of meals that many individuals don’t eat or don’t actually prefer to eat, together with citrus fruits, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, strawberries, Brussels sprouts, and extra. And should you love these meals and eat a variety of them, you is perhaps getting sufficient vitamin C. You is perhaps attending to a number of hundred milligrams per day simply via your food regimen.
However [00:35:00] many individuals, even individuals who eat nicely, don’t. Additionally, it’s a must to understand that Vegatables and fruits usually include much less vitamin C than they did up to now, and that meals processing strategies can take away as much as 50 % of the vitamin C from meals. And people are the principle explanation why many well being acutely aware individuals who eat nicely, like myself, Additionally select to complement with vitamin C.
