Exercise Scientist Breaks Down Michael B. Jordan's Shocking Workout

[@overratedfool6900]

This series is so damn good. It's not just highly entertaining, but it really highlights the principles that you underline in your other videos. When you critique exercises so well and with such logical and well communicated reasoning, it can really cement in my mind the understanding that I've picked up from other videos (yours and others'). These videos so often feel like the final piece of the puzzle when it comes to understanding and remembering a lot of the foundations of muscle/strength building.

I absolutely refuse to believe that this is what celebrities are actually doing. Men's Health and other fitness magazines don't want to show you the truth--that getting an amazing physique takes hours every week doing conventional lifts with progressive overload. That it takes proper dieting and rest. They want to sell you the wacky, zany crap that excuses you from having to actually work hard. There's no way someone with Michael B. Jordan's physique does that dumbbell circuit and gets what he has. That dude goes to a gym, uses heavy weights, and does conventional lifts. But that's not what sells magazines.

They have been caught up in the scams and buzzwords. I like what Arnold had to say about this. No one cares about how heavy you lift. Similarly, I do not care about odd position movements or explosive or functional very much. More buzzwords. The explosive movements and odd position movements have an unfavorable risk to reward ratio. End up injured, maybe permanently but with little to show for it.

​​​@@rey3472kind of depends if your training is meant to be 'sport specific'. Or maybe you want to just look a certain way. Or maybe you want both.

The article "The acute effects of swimming on appetite, food intake, and plasma acylated ghrelin" mentioned by TocoOW suggests this may be true as well, though their findings were not conclusive on the topic of temperature control as all of their tests took place in neutral-temperature water and it was found swimming did not increase appetite beyond what would be expected for the caloric burn of the activity.

I'd rather not.

Just recorded it, will be up at some point in the next year! - Dr. Mike

[@RapidBlindfolds]

@@RenaissancePeriodizationcould you please cover ultimate performance’s celebrity training? They are genuinely good at what they do and I want to see how you’d respond to proper training and programming

[@poleprogger]

For ab training i just watch this videos. At some point it just hurts and i can't breath anymore but it's worth the effort.

[@tazcastellano-zd1so]

As always your funny as hell and tongue in cheek humor juxtaposed wonderfully with inspirational, insightful and scientifically informative commentary and always hilarious, hits the nail on the head .

[@Momo_______fosho]

I love your videos, dont change Dr.Mike

[@Masterscotts1]

Great video. Outside of the hunger, swimming is easily the best cardio you can do for fat loss, assuming you can maintain such strenuous exercise for the same length of time as you would stay on a treadmill or bike, for example.

[@Bauer2sPro]

Great breakdown, doc 🦾😆👍

[@timlacroix5579]

I am doing DR. Mike's leg workout every time I am done I wish was never born.. it is killer.

[@peterhewer8475]

Awesome stuff Dr Mike..

[@nmbrock]

I would actually like to work out with dr. Mike that would make my day. Iv used a lot of his tips they definitely work

[@nomnomnooma]

I love that this called out the lack of navy seal heart and mind

[@jesuscedeno7557]

the swimming effect i read is not about the cold water effect, is about the breathing technics that we implement at the moment of swimming,

[@mintyfresh436]

For 4:39 Definitely arch a little bit so you can get your head of out of the way, especially if you use the bar or kettlebells.

[@zsahe21]

8:12 ahahaha dr. Mike, battle ropes are used quite often for olympic wrestling training (freestyle and greco). Mostly within conditioning circuits.

[@Monster_Physique]

These are some of the exact thoughts I have watching many influencer lifters after studying Exercise Science in college.
