I'm so happy videos like this exist. I'm a competitive cyclist, and when my friends are like dude you're only doing 3 reps you're going to be huge, I say no, this is to make me stronger, I don't want to be bigger, I want to be as strong as possible without being bigger (within reason, I get it carries over to some extent). Not your target audience right here but appreciate the videos.

Mike has primed me too much to not laugh every time he says, “You’re gonna have to take heavier loads.”

I'm glad new people are finding this. Comments seem positive. I'm gonna skip this one though because I've seen this covered in length by two other of your vids.
