Hello Jeff, I hope you answer my question. You said that cholesterol is important for testosterone production. I grew up in Texas and I love my red meat but I'm trying to be objective here. I have seen quite a few lifters, some that I know personally, who are off red meat completely and even a vegetarian dude in his late 40s who are not on steroids who don't seem to have a problem with testosterone production at least by what their bodies look like. Do you think these people are exceptions to the rule, or could the cholesterol-testosterone connection be a myth? Thanks.

Here's what I am doing to bring up my arms this bulk-A push pull leg split is what I will follow. I think it's slightly better than UPPER/LOWER as it is more muscle specific. On push days I'll do 2-3 sets of heavy bicep work just after my Bench press thus not affecting my Bench. Also triceps at last. On pull days I'll do 2-3 sets of heavy tricep work just after my Deadlift. Also Bicep at last. Again I'll hit biceps on one leg day and triceps on the other(at the start of the workout. I try to achieve 20-25 sets including all compound movements. LOVE FROM INDIA

The point on pre exhausting is a bit silly. of course fatiguing your quads before a compound leg movement will mean less quad activation. If your goal was more quad activation because it's weak, you would pre exhaust the other muscles in the movement not the quads. assuming the pre exhaust isn't extra volume on your already overly dominant muscle, then I don't see how pre exhausting could be bad. Seems like common sense to me. Pre fatigue the muscle you don't want as active on the next compound movement, not the one you want more active.

Great video I have a question at 10: 15 you mention not exhausting the quads before the heavy compound movement, because other muscles will become more active. I am quad dominant and want to use my hamstrings and glutes to power my squat. So if I am correct, will it be helpful to exhaust my quads before my heavy squats so as to recruit my posterior chain more, instead of the quads during the squat? Thanks

(Jeff Nippard Voice) One common sense study states, It has been shown that forgetting one's anniversary is detrimental to your relationship, it may cause a negative response from your girlfriend. In milder cases, she will bug her eyes. More severe cases may result in bodily harm, broken material objects of note, and/or property damage.

Question for you and Steph regarding the creatine from pescience. Do you take it, and how much? I got one bottle of the capsules to see how it goes for me, and the serving size is 4 capsules, which seems excessive. perhaps you dont need the 4 capsules? The multi vitamin calls for 3 capsules, and Ive been just taking 1 of those daily.

My smaller muscle groups, triceps, biceps and delts, never became sore the next day after a workout no matter how much i tried to fatigue them. until i integrated the concept of pre-exhausting. Now I can feel a bit of soreness the next day. Seems to me, pre-exhaustion is best for isolation exercises.

Jeff, I really enjoyed the format and content of this video (dont get rid of Technique Tuesdays though. Great mix of personal blog-style (with Stephanies cameo - love her too - keep her around) and science communication. Your page has become one of my go-tos for quality fitness information.

Unfortunately. im doing chest + front and side deltoids on same day, and my shoulders are laging compared to chest, but if i do the heavy shoulder military press and other exercises for them before my chest. then i will not be able to lift strong for my chest on my bench presses: S
