259: Mike Israetel - How many Calories during a Deload?

[@saehanbang1376]

Yes! Always love Dr. Mike on this show.

Glad to hear, thanks for watching! - Coach Jess

Much respect to coach Kassam and some of the biomechanics that he’s implemented into the bodybuilding realm, but I love Dr. Mike’s answer to the question regarding back training...sometimes feel that it’s trendy to over complicate lat training as of late, refreshing to hear Dr. Mike bring the discussion back to “where are you feeling the disruption/tension?”

I recently dieted down for 16 weeks. First time btw. Wanted to get as LEAN as possible. Got down to 212lb and I'm just under 6 foot. Increased calories for the last few weeks. I'm at 219lb now. Feeling amazing!!! Gradually increasing calories and now I'm at 3,300 calories a day. Loving the process. All of these videos with Mike and RPstrength have been a blessing!!!! Thank you!!!!

Nice work, that's super cool to hear, keep it up! And thanks for the support! - Coach Jess

[@withrowwrites8331]

Would definitely love a video with Dr. Mike on training/nutrition in regards to females!

[@ReviveStronger]

On what specifically? Not too many differences in what we usually talk about so if you have any specific topics? Thanks for watching! - Coach Jess

[@withrowwrites8331]

@@ReviveStronger Perhaps the hormonal side of things? Like how nutrition can impact females differently than males. For example, I’ve always heard that females require more fats in a diet but never know if that is scientifically backed up or not.

Just want to say thanks to you both. I've been following Dr Mikes advice this year and am starting to see my abbs for the first time in my life. And geeze, Mikes a funny bugger!

You should invite Alexander Bromley of Empire Barbell. He's very insightful, realistic & has the experience to back his views.

[@ReviveStronger]

On what topic? :) - Coach Jess

[@shantanusapru]

@@ReviveStronger Well, he's into strongman, has a degree in science & is knowledgeable about programming & many other related issues... Might add a new dimension to your videos/channel...

It was early for him and he was just being respectful of others sleeping :) - Coach Jess

2:42 It would've been hilarious if Charlie actually was in that closet, and he popped out later in the episode and did something random like hit Mike with a pie or he came out playing a trumpet.

losing 5-7 pounds of bodyfat in 2 and a half weeks is fantastic

@@ReviveStronger you're welcome bro, you are a good dude and i appreciate your uploads, keep it up

[@brianpetro391]

How does a deload work in the RP Diet App when in a deficit? There isn’t a deload option so if you change intensity to light for the workout it further reduces the calories from your current deficit. A deload option in the app would be a nice addition.

[@ReviveStronger]

Hey, that would be a question to have the RP staff specifically as we don't control the RP app at all :) Thanks for watching! - Coach Jess

[@roninstrength1883]

Dr Mike, using that logic: would it be rational to utilize a zig-zag method (Fred Hatfield) of caloric loading, to aim for minimum fat gain? Meaning, on days off, going from gaining to maintenance level of caloric intake. Perhaps it’s splitting too many hairs/too complex for a distinctive benefit.

[@ReviveStronger]

Why not take all the days at maintenance though? - Coach Jess

[@dancarter9360]

Mike giving off tired, depleted vibes. Side note; needs to invest in a high-quality mic!

Do you guys have any videos that discuss cutting while coming off a cycle? I have scoured the internet with little in the way of info.

[@ReviveStronger]

Try the episodes with Broderick Chavez :) - Coach Jess

[@J90JAM]

Can we all chip in to get the doc a mic, hell a cheap lapel mic would be 10x better.

Steve sent him one ages ago, it's not up to us unfortunately what he decides to use, Pascal did his best editing! Thanks for watching! - Coach Jess

[@Ilijespeters]

deload while cutting, calories on maintenance. will maintenance be lower because you burn less calories due the less volume en weight beacuse you take a deload. maintenenca will be differend if you train as you normal do, if you are cutting and will do a deload then the calories for maintenence will be differend beacuse you burn les enery beacuse you do lesser sets en weights right. Maintenence will be based on your energy consumption and not on the calories that you normal would need for a deload. I would say it would be normal if you are cutting and want to do a deload that you dont go up to your normal calories for maintenence beacuse you do 50% of what you normal do in the gym. If you do les, you burn les energy so your calories for food in take for maintence will be lower. Its the enery that you burn what your maintence is based on right.
