“about to do because I just did something similar to that and that motion. And then I actually can get into using the weights, which provide a different source of tension. The weights are going to be differently felt than the bands will. I'm more prepared to handle that. The joints are more prepared. And as I said before, that muscle up, all it takes is one bad repetition to make”
“exercise by playing pickleball or whatever it would be, or those who did resistance training, weights, tension bands, machines, or even those who decided to do both.”
“failure doesn't appear to be necessary. I think if you're going to train to failure, Dr. Schoenfeld seemed to recommend doing machine-based exercises versus on free weights, because the injury risk and the risk of, you know, an accident happening is lower. If you're on a machine, you know, you can't, you can't drop a weight on yourself really, if you're using a machine. So going to failure on”
“the most, and that are going to obviously, you know, help them grow, but also reduce their injury risk using machines versus free weights. He didn't seem to be concerned with that either. And even cited some meta analyses showing, you know, can you is hypertrophy better with machines or free weights seem to be equal. So I think that's a good thing.”
“I think that goes to show that you can do there are multiple paths to hypertrophy, and you can choose whether you prefer to do free weights or machines doesn't seem to matter much. I think the one question I wish I'd asked him back then, when I wasn't engaged in so much of resistance training was, yes, hypertrophy, but you know, functional independence, right? Like,”
“Yeah, exactly. I think it makes a little bit of sense if you really are focused on the quote, unquote, functional training to do, you know, maybe more stuff with free weights that moving natural movements. But like you said, if you're getting stronger, if it's on, even if it's on a machine, then you're getting stronger. And that's going to help you within functional independence and activities.”
