Good idea to rethink things if he's torn 3 pretty major muscle groups.
^^^This. Never heard of a bodybuilder making improvements as a direct result of lifting heavier, but I have heard of many injuring themselves as a direct result of lifting heavier. Strength is all relative anyways. In bodybuilding the main concern in the gym should be maximum stimulation of the muscle, not maximum poundages. Leave that to guys like yourself that are competitive powerlifters. The fact that an aging bodybuilder needed John Meadows program for him to realize this just goes to show that Mr.Dougdale has been skating by on drugs and genetics as an IFBB professional bodybuilder. So to anyone that says professional bodybuilding isn't all about drugs: Here is a perfect example for you

Geez, I guess that did just happen. At the time I didn't feel angry about what you said it just spawned many thoughts about the subject all at once. I do apologize for the little bitch part though that was uncalled for.

That doesn't matter, but to further prove my point: You are a strong man. And I bet you have made pretty steady strength gains over the years. Has lifting heavier made any significant improvements in muscle mass, or a significant improvement on your physique?

I think JJ was being sarcastic about him being novice, hence the smiley face. This forum is notorious for mis-reading posts more than every other forum.
TBH, nothing major. That's one of the challenges I face, to continue to get stronger whilst keeping my bodyweight pretty much the same.
Put it this way ~ if I was wanting to develop my physique, gain more muscle/size etc etc, I wouldn't train like I do and I wouldn't try and continually push the weights. That's not the best or smartest way to get those kind of results. I'd need to change the training side of things, and that would likely include probably lowering the weights and increasing the reps.
so are you saying I can use the same weight I train with now for the next 10-15 years and still grow and improve bodyparts?

Well of course you need to change things up over the years to allow for muscular adaptation, but I think the point is that simply to progressively train heavier and heavier isn't the best approach to take.
Thank you sir. Point proved
No, but I am saying that if you think that lifting heavier is the answer then you will never turn pro. I don't care how great your genetics, or how much food and drugs you take in.
^^^This. The fact that Mark Dugdale is just now figuring this out proves that he has skated by as a pro on drugs and genetics (and probably "gurus" too). This is basic stuff for any competitive bodybuilder

Bingo. Look at any bodybuilder out there using the 'lift heavier' scheme, and I'll guarantee you they suffer far more injuries than their more incisive and intelligent peers. Train the muscle, not the weight. You can create massive legs squatting 405...hell, even 315, if you do it properly.
Read Dugdale's post again, Uriah -- he's clearly enunciating the argument in favor of lighter weight, using different techniques (bands, chains, etc.), with more volume.
bodybuilding is about progression in food gear and lifting....lifting heavier will get you dense thick muscle....lifting heavier in a controlled manner for reps that is...no one is saying do sets of 1 or anything retarded....but take 315 and squat it for 8 reps and 2 months later squat it for 15-20 reps and I bet your legs will be bigger

That is a givin. What I am trying to say is that strength is relative, and the body will get stronger on it's own time. Trying to push heavier and heavier weight without allowing the connective tissues and central nervous system time to keep up with the muscles is asking for burnout or injury
