Serious Science, Bro. The Latest Strength Research w/ Dr. Andy Galpin - EP 197

[@johnzarick]

I'm a big fan of Dr. Galpin's episodes, the more science the better. Good show guys.

[@AlecBieniawski]

Fuck yeah science

[@Rchaille]

I love the science shrugged episodes.. Really getting details. Andy's videos are some of my favorites

[@crzypandaman]

He was my professor for two different courses in college. Really changed the way I looked at studies, how i program for my athletes, and how I program for myself. Hope all is well, Andy.

[@mvagusta03]

Such a good episode. I'm a huge fan of Andy on the show. He's so objective like a good scientist should be

[@FutureNFLHOF]

Barbell University sounds like such an amazing idea! As someone who is in love with learning about exercise physiology and strength and conditioning in particular another way to expand my knowledge and supplement my learning while I'm at university sounds great. Hope you guys can get that going!

[@f91256]

Great episode guys, I always love to hear the science&data perspective. "Education for science of exercise and physiology and how that applies to real training is not as good as it should be, cant find anyone that's doing it as well as we think it should be done, SO WE ARE TAKING IT INTO OUR OWN HANDS"...Very inspirational and a great example you guys are setting by taking this challenge head on. Keep it up Barbell Shrugged team.

[@jesmineryckman3157]

Best episode yet. Do more science based stuff!!!

[@jakewalker6216]

I would love to hear Dr. Galpin's thoughts on #squateveryday !!!

[@kendalllowe8381]

I'm studying just to go to school here under Dr. Andy Galpin

[@BeeGeeEPIC]

Andy Galpin, such a hunk

[@corneilius8681]

These are some of the best episodes!!!! I FUCKING love SCIENCE!!!!

[@Bar0n970]

40 mins in, and literally was just about to ask about the thing in Gaplin's coat... such brilliant timing.

[@CoolInOlympia]

Wow! Barbell University? Wow!!!!

[@danpow9285]

Fascinating what Dr. Andy said about personal trainers in the future (i.e. being a part of hospital system, being integrated with insurance companies, etc...). Once he started going over all of that, my first thought was on what they are trying to do in Washington DC, where they want to make it so that all trainers have to go through a government licensing process before they can "practice" fitness. Basically, if fitness becomes more mainstream for disease prevention, could you see the government trying to regulate the industry?Any of the Shrugged crew (or Dr. Andy himself) have thoughts on that?

[@danpow9285]

Hey thanks for the reply (longtime listener/fan of the show). I agree with you, third party organizations should be the ones setting the rules/standards --- however, if fitness becomes a major part of how health problems are treated (in the US) in the future, I'm just wondering what that would look like if/when the government tries to step in and regulate. I mean, could you imagine the government trying to define what fitness is and try and tell you how to train your clients? There could be issues like this down the road.

[@stephenclark4651]

Love It!!

[@tommcadam]

Where can we read Dr Galpin's research?

[@Vanguard_Fitness]

It's not about the average it's about the individual

[@geigertron3000]

when do we get to see the results of the twin study??!!!! sounds aaawesoooooooome!!!!

[@hemlockdrinker]

That baseball bat analogy makes sense to me because swinging something heavier already takes a toll on your strength and power form the getgo, instead of swinging a wiffle bat which warms you up but conserves strength and power. hmmmm

[@06livefast]

Love that they have a Rogue rack.

[@calebting2617]

CTP: the mayor of PunCity LOL @ 55:51 - "Char char Binks"

[@CoolInOlympia]

I hope Layne Norton is involved in Barbell University!

[@06livefast]

+CoolInOlympia LOL Layne Norton is a goof man. Rounded back to oblivion.

[@kevinschmidtpowerlifting]

Awesome Video!

[@luissolis4390]

super interested in barbell university.

[@rebekahalemao9332]

Dr.Andy Galpin is probably the only person who is cool enough to have a muscle fiber in his pocket and not look weird :p I wonder what other nerds knew it was a fiber before it was mentioned :p

[@juanschroth9211]

Just wondering, but it seems to me that Dr. Gaplin is alluding to over speed training is more effective than something like PAP training? If so this is really cool.

[@CoolInOlympia]

WOW!!!!! 3-D printing a muscle fiber cell!!!! WOW!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!

[@vfxforge]

QUESTION: so is there a place where we can find out elite athletes performance data to use as a baseline? Recently I had my blood work done and the base line the doctor used were the standard ones. As someone that trains hard everyday I feel this baselines does not apply to me.

[@hawkman329]

Would the swinging the lighter bat our wearing the harness while jumping be similar to the idea of reverse bands on squat and deadlift or the slingshot for bench?

[@Beardyboibobby]

Did the Study of the Twins VO2 maxes ever get published?

[@tomtomic4681]

What are the chances of you doing the episode with dr. Stuart McGill on low back injuries and rehab?

[@MichaelDavis55]

Where can we find these studies that you guys are talking about?

[@MichaelDavis55]

+Chris Moore Thanks Chris you da man! The Overspeed jumping study really peaked my attention when you guys brought it up. Did you guys happen talk to Dr. Galpin after filming about if that less-resistance training could possibly be applied to, say, a rower (i.e. rowing at a lesser resistance to pull a faster 500m/1000m/...) or maybe even a short metcon like "Fran"?

[@bklwealth1132]

Where can I find that study on the breathing exercises?

[@BrendonCollins]

+Brian Lagrange I'm trying to find these, too.

[@juanschroth9211]

+Brendon Collins the study hasn't been published yet. Dr. Galling mentioned that since they found no statistical significance among groups, it might not get published. But of course they talked about how in science, finding statistical significance might not actually be significant when training individual athletes lol

[@juanschroth9211]

+Juan Schroth Dr. Gaplin *

[@michaelnguyen6891]

“I’m willing to become a nerd for fitness” -Me after watching Andy

[@SMSmith2010]

Wouldn't it just be an issue of sensitization to the various effects of training? I'm not sure "increased communication" is the right phrase because it isn't changing the signaling per say, its just amplifying the effects.

[@Srstanrod]

WHERE IS BLEDSOE

[@BarbellShrugged]

He was running out Mastermind event. As the show progresses you're going to see more of an ensemble cast, where each week the hosts will be picked from our broad team of voices; from Chris, Mike, CTP and Doug, to Alex Maclin, Mike McGoldrick, Kurt Mullican, Dr Galpin, AJ Roberts etc. That way when someone from the regular podcast team are busy on other projects or out of town, you'll get to hear some of the other awesome personalities in the Shrugged crew. There will always be some familiar faces, but this way we can mix it up a bit.

[@nicholasco2926]

+Barbell Shrugged I thought he wasn't there because he only has an undergrad degree...lol just kidding. Bledsoe is awesome.

[@mangaman4000]

Bros push barbell university! You can sign me up

[@juanschroth9211]

Lol @ p.005 statistical significance 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@E4zyp34zyl3m0nsq33ZY]

@1:02:25 hi charlotte lool

[@ognjenvesic9515]

Listening to these two guys explain about high amount of muscle mass and low percentage of body fat making you healthy was literally painful. That is not how human health has evolved to function nor is it the function of high amount of muscle to make you healty! For more information on the topic please feel free to read about evolutionary concept of fitness indicators and learn how and why! Also please let the man talk. No translation is needed!

[@thomaskennedy5336]

Is every intro that fucking long?

[@johnnyevo7174]

what's wrong with bicep curls? you guys cringed.

[@johnnyevo7174]

+Chris Moore ha roger that. I thought you debunked the movement as bro science or something. I knew it was an inside thing by the reaction

[@johnnyevo7174]

+Chris Moore good to hear, I try to throw in bent over rows, bicep curls and bench once a week along with the metcons. but dude, I'm 292 lbs and my weight ain't coming off. I want to get to the 200 210 range.
