Raw Stimulus Magnitude and Training Effect
-
Sometimes it’s referred to as the difference between “working out” and “training.”
-
Why is it that sometimes what used to work just stops? Why is it that this “workout” isn’t doing “XYZ?” I thought I just need to walk and cut carbs? Why isn’t It working?”
-
Or my personal favorite, “I tried that, it doesn’t work.”
-
Well, not so fast. Here’s the thing, what you’re doing may be: heavy, fast, long enough in duration, frequent enough, in enough volume, etc… To have a robust “Raw Stimulus Magnitude.”
-
Consider the bicep curl example in the video. I compared curling a spice shaker vs a 50lb dumbbell. Or consider walking vs say, walking with a rucksack or walking on a Stepmill. In these cases, the latter is somehow “harder” because it heavier, steeper incline, etc and it’s that intensification that makes the training effect more robust.
-
It’s the Raw Stimulus Magnitude.
-
See the problem with just burning calories is just that. That’s all it does. Just walking isn’t going to dramatically improve your VO2 Max anymore than curling a pepper shaker is going to build your bicep. The Raw Stimulus Magnitude is below the threshold to move the needle, to get a training effect.
-
So when you’re spending months training to no avail ask yourself, what am I doing this for? And does this thing that I’m doing provide a robust enough stimulus, a high enough Raw Stimulus Magnitude to move the needle towards that end?
