Never attribute to malice that which can more readily be explained by incompetence.

It does in fact, but it's very hit/miss depending on the individual. It's just about having more fresh reps to focus on technique more, which is proven to help, but that's why it's not gonna do much for folks that have good technique already.

Hold on you actually lift and aren't some dumb jew who gets mogged by a steroid lesbian?

Misportrayal mainly. In Pavel's case it is deliberate and he is a grifter.

All gtg does is increase neuromuscular effeciency. It doesn't give you more endurance it doesn't give you more mass it just helps you get more out of the mass you have. Which is useful if you're in something that has weight classes or hard weight limitations where putting on more leanmass is not an option or a net detriment. It does not last forever or stave off the need to train closer to failure for long before you start to actually lose mass. So it is incredibly niche and horrible outside that niche.

For exercises that follow complex motor patterns, Grease the Groove can make sense. Either way, he didn't invent anything; he just came up with a fancy name. After all, if you practice playing the piano every day, don't you get better?

Strength is a skill

No. Greasing the groove does work but it works less than physics. You can grease the groove pull ups all day but at the end of the day what’s going to make you better at pull ups is becoming stronger and lighter. So in so far as greasing the groove is not the optimal way to build strength it’s sub-optimal.

That's basically it, neuromuscular efficiency. Myonuclear permanence also lasts for many, many years. It comes down to someone becoming better at highly specific movements by doing said highly specific movements more often. Definitely not a difficult concept. Would grease the groove help you specifically as an alternative to eating big, periodization, and progressive overload? No.

Would grease the groove help athletes that are some of the best in the world achieve a slight edge in their weight class, allowing them to take an olympic gold instead of silver? Very possible. I don't consider it niche, since it can be applied to top athletes in a wide variety of sports, but it is limited to highly specific movements with very little carry over into other sports if you cross train. Whereas plyometrics for example carry into just about every sport that involves running or jumping.

This is one of those very stupid sayings such as "Never judge a book by it's cover." No, you should judge a book by it's cover, because the cover tells you what's inside. And never discount malice from someone's intentions, ESPECIALLY today with so many resentful and malicious leftists running around everywhere.

its for more practice. why are u guys such dumb fucking retards? sport players do it all the time they jsut dont label it GTG

It does, ask any actual athlete.

Millennial take. In reality it's almost always malice.

Sure it would.

If you can't do enough pull ups to grow, getting heavier won't help you. In such cases, GTG is the solution of choice.
