Grant Gregory arm strength just proves

[opcat]

Arm size doesn't correlate.

Most of the qb's with the strongest arms don't have huge arms.

The guy is getting bad advice in his career for working on size doing reps of 8-12 instead of pure strength in fast twitch  muscles in the range of 1-5 reps.

Dude would be NFL prospect if he didn't waste it on being big instead of stronger.

I think you may have this backwards. people trying to put on lots of muscle mass do 1-5 reps, but guys trying to tone out and get stronger do higher reps (8-12).

check out his tats on the insides. pretty odd.

I think you're forgetting that Grant sucks in a lot of other ways too, besides just arm strength.

Who knows, it's fun though isn't it?

I have always lived my life by the simple philosophy of "Curls for the Girls" and it has always served me well.

I think you may have this backwards. people trying to put on lots of muscle mass do 1-5 reps, but guys trying to tone out and get stronger do higher reps (8-12).

and you are 100% backwards. Usually reps of 8,10,12 are done in the 70ish% of 1 rep max which translates into "hypertrophy" or enlargement of the muscle tissue. Sets of 1-5 are done at higher 1 RM %'s and results in higher recruitment of Type 2 or "fast twitch" motor units, not the tearing down and rebuilding of muscle tissue.

BTW, If you ever hear anybody try to tell you that speed is developed thru light weight, fast movements... simply plug your ears. Speed and power is developed at very high intensities and loads, and takes place in a state of fatigue. That is why powerlifters do super high set amounts and reps of only 1-3ish.

The original post makes sense to a certain point, but i guarantee he is not only doing higher rep lifting... the strength and conditioning program is not that dumb. But, if he does have a history of bodybuilding, it could of diminished his throwing skills.

thanks for the advice but nothing i said is backwards.

Everything i said is correct.    The lower reps grow some muscle size but not as much as the higher reps in the 8-12 range. The strength in the lower range is neural and the muscle fibers are more dense. That's why powerlifters don't have Arnold type arms.

i am living testament.  Can lift 300 but arms are thin.

GG could have doubled his arm strength if he were smarter.

Unless one of you is a sports med doc or at the very least a masters student in Physiology or Kinesiology take this crap elsewhere. We know that opcat is not either of these things because he calling out someone for having too much gun at the gun show and he ran to wikipedia for citation. But we're all very impressed that you can lift 3 bills and still fit into your middle school cheer leading outfit.

Ok, i am going to go ahead and believe he's your bro.

Don't take offense.  I like the guy.  His video of him breaking down in the post game made me a fan.

My comments aren't intended for insult.   Just regular football talk dude.  chill.

nice to have you aboard.

Only problem with this whole thread is that "arm strength" (as discussed) and "how far you can throw the ball" are two wildly different things.

Beat me to it.

Throwing the ball far has much more to do with shoulder, wrist and tricep strength than biceps.  Biceps are for lifting.  Unless his center likes his ass lifted at the snap, he's probably just building arm strength for other purposes.
