Hey there,
Do you guys know of a guy called Kali Muscle on YouTube? Now it doesn't matter if you don't because what he constantly says is that to get huge muscles you need to do lots of reps, always saying no 5's 10's or even 12's, its 15's, 20's and failure.
Now just doing reps to me reminds me of when I first started at the gym and you'd just do infinite reps with enough that lets you do that and you literally go nowhere, or you might get somewhere because you're so early to training!
But what I don't understand is, literally everybody says the opposite to what this Kali dude says, 12 reps max, even just do it heavy, 6 reps, you gotta lift, just keep your rest down so you're not giving your muscles much time to rest to make sure you tear the muscle. So pretty much how I always understood it, bulk is 8 - 12 reps up to 2 minute rest.
Again this Kali dude, will just say that this ain't how it works, and even speak out to say say yeah everyone says 10 - 12 reps, and that aint how you do it! Going on rants saying everyone needs to stop saying this, I got to where I am doing what I am saying, I don't want to keep it a secret, what I say is right and look at me! You gotta get the blood into your muscle, get the pump...
Whenever I tried doing like 15 to 20 reps, I never found I was doing anything, I keep doing sets just to see when I'd actually feel properly worked out, and actually multiple attempts at about 20 reps it just felt like nothing was properly happening.
I know you need to challenge the muscle in order for them to grow because if they don't need to adapt they wont. So I thought the idea with Kali's training is yeah 15 - 20 reps maybe like 40 seconds rest, go light but heavy FOR YOU so mad heavy for 20 reps, most importantly keep trying to progress with the weight since obviously if you just push some light weight for a year nothing will happen.
But what do you guys think? purely because people would say that this is total bollocks, and I always knew 15 reps and above to be for toning, but whenever I've done reps like that even in the past, I didn't seem to achieve anything. Literally just lose progress, which is why I'd stick to doing heavy at 12 reps but then I don't understand how Kali is the biggest dude ever saying no you don't get this big doing 10 reps! put the weight down so you can do 20!
so at the minute, I'm totally lost, since I need to know what is right, I can do one or the other at the gym, but for me it needs to be known what is right.
Cheers guys.
