FIVE GUARANTEED Ways to Gain Strength FAST (and Build Muscle!)

[BradenPcook]

Bench press 2-3 times a week? It takes me about four days to recover from a chest day.

[xLaDyAsSasSINx]

Whoa u are fkn sexy!! Good video by the way ;)

[gkdrummerboy]

This is fucking awesome.

[MegaTafe]

i suggess doing 7x5 reps, 80% of max weight. else, try follow the instructions Omarlsuf gives. really good tips.

[MegaTafe]

For those who DOESNT know.... by strenght training, you have to train heavy.

less reps and more sett's = more strenght improvement.

If you do 3x12(10) with 70%-80% of max weight, you can forget about gaining strenght.

Do 80%-85% of max weight, and do fewer rep's and more setts.

If you don't feel secure about the weight, it is better to lower it instead of getting injuries.

I personally do not train strenght that inthusiastic, but i myself would have to do 80%- max weight.

@OmarIsuf I challenge you! /watch?v=hMH0gUN_dtE

[Darkshadowxe]

ive always been told to control the weight to use slow movements as lifting quickly can lead to bad form and snap some shiste up. however lifting quickly as im aware also gives you that explosive burst which is need for errr harder gains maybe? Could you elaborate on these subjects please?

[basboyblair]

I love the video...but disagree on the Speed Tip. Seen too many people (on the bench press for example) that are using the velocity to get the barbell up. Yet if they did it normal speed (count of 4 up and down on average) they wouldn't be able to lift the weight very far off their chest (ie... they aren't strong enough to lift that weight). Check out Pavel's book Power to the People to read a full explanation on the principles behind it. Plus speed often = bad form which leads to injuries.

My name is Omar too :)

[xxTONEMOxx]

What if your doing the immortal workouts?

[OmarIsuf]

@xxTONEMOxx The strength tips still apply, but the immortal workouts are for intermediate lifters wishing to gain strictly size!

[breakbeatkid85]

2/3 times a week, that might be over doing it, your sholders can't maintain 3 heavy chest workouts a week. Even with proper nutrition and rest it would be tough recovering in time. At least for bench press any way.

[Jenbug123]

damn Omar! you look great! I havnt seen your vids in a min but you look awesome!

[toddyc111]

@fagaaaa you are a fag hahaha, keep ur opinions to yourself.

[fagaaaa]

U keep talking about strengt and gaining muscle yet i dont see it happeninginur body, ur a skinny bitch. Gtfo

[dmrios62788]

@fagaaaa lets see a video of you homeboy then you can talk. why even watch the videos you punk ass bitch

[shetrainshard]

GREAT VID!! then again all your vids are great.. thanks for the great tips :)

[nfelisshia]

i feel ashamed to say i lift weights unbelievably slow

[adrian18825]

damn yo he got buff

[HakuCell]

why dont you copy the "text" in the video description anymore?

[davidealessio]

are u the singer of There for tomorrow?

[bodybag22]

You need a proper mic/audio setup when you talk, it just plain sucks and i'm losing enthusiasm in you.

[BRADD3RIOandSHORTY]

swear thats a girl?

[Hansblow12]

You cannot use the words speed and acceleration interchangeably; they aren't the same thing. If you lift with constant speed, then the Force = 0.

[wazrasta]

time for a beard bro

[OreoGMoneyJr]

Awesome thank you! If love to see more man I was about to ask how to be stronger

[Joke2292]

Cool stuff, bro. I see a lot of Christian Thibadeau on this video ;)

[OmarIsuf]

@Joke2292 Definitely, he has the science, infield experience and experimentation that sets him in a league of his own. What he talks about will take the rest of the training field 5 years to catch on!

[hoboman1000]

Getting some size man! ;D

[Ge4rsofWar]

so the immortals workouts arent for strength????

[wiifiisucks]

@Ge4rsofWar they will do if oy have the proper rests and keep in the right rep range

[OmarIsuf]

@Ge4rsofWar They are predominantly for size and are more conventional work outs, my work outs that will be coming out for the size.strength program will be what I preach about, they will different than normal work outs (less reps, more sets, the splits etc) but its the most effective way to gain size, straight up

[MrFifaVids]

Why not go to failure?

[sube3]

@MrFifaVids because you'll injure yourself, with strength training you'll mess around with heavy ass weights

[Keystone25210]

@MrFifaVids Because lifting heavy weight with less reps builds strength, that's just the way it is.

[OmarIsuf]

@MrFifaVids For strength? It won't assist you in the long run, 1 Rep Max tests are fine and competition day misses are fine but we are talking strength NOT training for size, and we are talking failure in compound NOT isolation movements. Failure in isolation movements are fine. In compound I disagree. Most people who go to failure in a compound movement (like a deadlift), can't deadlift that much! Trust me, deadlifting 445 to failure is too damn stressful!

[rayjdragonballz]

@MrFifaVids From what I heard, when doing strength training, going to failure actually makes you weaker because of the way it affects the central nervous system.

[efil4aggin92]

@MrFifaVids failure i.e 8-12 reps is stimulating the muscles doing 3-5 is just for the nervous system the nervous system is what gives us our strength

[TommyMendo]

Where do you sign up, theres nothing in the description?

[OmarIsuf]

@TommyMendo Sorry I fixed it, my internet has been screwy!

[frunkus1981]

What's that song that plays at the end of your videos? I could definitely use that on my work out soundtrack.

[AscendedMike]

@OmarIsuf Ofcourse we want more!! Say Omar, should nutrition be any different when training for strength instead of mass? Bout 500kcal surplus?

[OmarIsuf]

@AscendedMike 100%

[faheeta]

Lifting too fast uses your momentum. Isn't that cheating? Doesn't it also take away from your form?

[sube3]

@faheeta he means do the rep fast in an explosive way.

[OmarIsuf]

@sube3 Thanks champ, bang on

[TheeUrbanGentleman]

Holy fuck. Startin to show some body.

Not that i like it..... ;)
