Exercise Scientist Critiques 2023 Mr. Olympia Derek Lunsford

[@marshit]

the fake out on the app plug absolutely got me 10/10

[@SoySolSolecito]

They don't even need to plug to plug. Based.

[@omaribrah1m]

There’s more than Scott the video guy?? Welcome to the RP lore Max the editor boy

[@useraiaj234mp]

He literally has a makeup artist and personal magician to make sure they are maximizing the illusion of the shot to make him appear larger, like in the lord of the rings

[@Jaibeeee]

we have heard of max before

[@Draenal]

Refusing to cut the RP Hypertrophy App Ad read at @5:15 got a genuine laugh out of me. Stay rebellious, Max.

[@DoggieInThePound]

Same 😂😂😂😂

[@PoopScooper10000]

Lmfao!! Truly next level ✊

Hey mike, do Markus ruhl next

[@jessebrown1400]

Markus was a real monster back in the day, I loved the XXXL video, its actually called that lol

[@rautateemu]

Markus Ruhl with farts and burps🤤

[@C0d0ps]

Markus is a monster in the bodybuilding world. Would love to get a video on him

[@Schmandgrab]

Ruuuuuuuuhl!!!

I loved the " not falling in line" when mike set up the RP hypertrophy jump ad! Is Max going to be a new recurring character like Scott the video guy?

[@dionsw6351]

I’d love to see it, because that was hilarious

[@KirillT14]

Not if he doesn't fall in line lmao

[@roberthofmann8403]

Now I need to see J. Feather wearing a Dr. Mike shirt

[@seangeiger4577]

jared wearing a shirt of mike wearing the shirt of jared

[@C0d0ps]

Why wouldn’t the son wear a shirt of his father? It’s a shame they need to compete in thongs and can’t wear fun t shirts.

[@rolandantoniogeldres8960]

Scott the video guy and Max de editor boy did dirty Mike in 5:09

[@LeoStep93]

That was hilarious XD

[@jicudi]

I was about to make a comment about that lol! "how not to fall in line" lol.

[@willabee22]

"..heavy loads to the nipple line.." could be the new RP mission statement

[@dadfatherfigure372]

Thanks for the “partner assistance” yesterday Dr. Mike! It’s been months since my chest and triceps have been this sore 💪❤️‍🔥

[@Hingle_McCringle]

My ass was the only thing that became sore after partner assistance with "Dr" Mike

[@Loup-zn5bx]

your youtube is literally a treasure trove of fitness/health information. There's 10 years of videos. I will never be able to even watch it all, there is so much useful information to absorb. Truly incredibly.

[@TheVegasViolator]

Couldn't help but notice this is not Branch Warren. I again respectfully ask for such an analysis. Thank you

[@ugk26]

John Meadows suggested a partial only lateral. He said pick 150% of the weight you normally use and go super high reps and just lift it 30% the way up. That’s a great movement imho.

[@thiagobp0159]

I find very heavy laterals awkward, light but high rep and hitting a bunch of angles as mechanical dropset feels very good

[@TheArrowedKnee]

Personally i much prefer cable lateral raises, with partials when im unable to do full ROM ones

[@ugk26]

@@TheArrowedKnee I love those too, did them today. I typically do them in front but I went behind the back, very nice stretch. I do 9 sets to failure on all 3 heads and I superset all 3, I don’t put the weights down, so painful.

[@ugk26]

@@thiagobp0159 100% agree, same with arms. I don’t go over 25lb dumbbells for laterals. But I have freakishly long arms. I’m 75” tall and have an 85” wingspan, pretty crazy. So I don’t need much weight. Much more torque on my joints, totally unnecessary.

[@itsallgoodman940]

I remember those from him.

[@tomvandongen8075]

The Jared Feather t shirt is giving me life

[@superrritschy]

Would love a video on Markus Rühl!

[@quantumpotential7639]

He never skipped head day but you wouldn't know it.

[@EvenMoreDamage]

Seeing RP app add asking to throw away excel sheets... Man, I felt personally attacked.

[@davorzdralo8000]

Especially funny because they still sell the Excel sheet templates 😂

[@themaniacmitch]

The way my jaw hit the floor at "how not to fall in line" 5:15 you'll be missed, Max. RIP to a G.O.A.T. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bluvapors]

His training partner is fellow Olympian contender Matt Greggo. I have worked with him. He is awesome. Love the video. Keep it real Dr. Mike.

[@Kikibrat2]

He has an AMAZING PHYSIQUE. Since switching to classic, his body has really progressed. Love his channel too.

[@nickoates0]

I was blown away by a kid gohan reference

[@HolotapeDeepCuts]

I was blown away by the truth of the statement immediately following the reference.

[@alpha4154]

He says gohan but looks like nappa

[@artoodeetoo3064]

Are we thinking it was kid Gohan that scared the shit out of Vegeta when he went "over 9000"? I'd like to think so

[@johannesrink3211]

ITS time vor the Urs Training review🎉. You recently met him at the Olympia prep. Greetings from.germamy. Love your content😊

[@harivinayak03]

Loved the "How not to fall in line" bit :P

I didn’t get this comment immediately 😂 the bro love with these guys is so strong

[@Rubendybs]

I've been watching RP for 4 months now and I've become so jacked I am struggling to get TP to meet my bunghole. I wish I was joking. Carry on.

[@shawnkimball3910]

Pretty sure his training partner in this vid is Matt Greggo. He’s also an IFBB pro guy but for classic, and his physique is also unbelievable. Might be a good guy to analyze as well

[@goldstandardlawnandlandscape]

Saw Daniels to Taylor in person with my dad. Damn right we will remember it forever! The double earthquake game 💜💛

[@SamTheMan666]

2:35 This Is giving Homelander vibes.

[@Drplaguescp049]

16:48 You are correct doc

[@frankthomsen2350]

Why do I feel like I learn something new every time I watch a dr. Mike video? That is awesome.. and humbling 😂 Oh well, that's what I get for only training whenever I have 3 spare minutes from being a dad of 4 with all the obligations that goes with that.

[@1boreal]

switching to 3 on 1 off has been massively beneficial.. im always fresh enough to be excited for the next workout.

[@Ozzma84]

The parent teacher comment is awesome because I just went to my sons and it went almost exactly as you described. Lol.

[@Grayvedygger]

Very much enjoy the more positive vibe coming from these videos

[@Solairethedarksoul]

I’ve been waiting for this. I watch a lot of Derek’s videos

[@ColbyGillich]

God dammit we need that Jared feather shirt for sale on the website. I need at least 3

[@MamaFaff]

I'm glad they talked about Jared's haircut.....

[@DKRicey]

Thanks Dr. Mike for motivating me into doing better. I’m 23, and recently got a health check. 6’1” 17st 8lb (113kg) with around 29/30% Body fat. Since discovering you, I’ve been watching what I’m eating, getting into the gym twice a week (where I plan on taking this up into the 3/4). I don’t yet *see* results, but I feel results and watching your technique videos, correcting techniques in videos allow me to get myself into a state of mind that was so foreign to me before Im keeping at this for a year and hopefully using this comment as a benchmark for myself, where I can almost guarantee I will be hooked. Thanks for everything you do, and keeping it enjoyable with the humour and knowledge

[@MrShaunG]

5:57 it just dawned on me in any other context his training partner would be the biggest guy in the gym 😂

[@Kikibrat2]

Matt is fucking huge even standing next to Derek. Classic better watch out.

[@JJ-zr6fu]

I love when dads support their sons by wearing them on a shirt.

[@EctoNick32]

Max is the goat for that plug fake out lol.

[@DeborahLee-sy1or]

Such a creative genius, seriously!

[@KrisztiánJózsa-r4i]

these are bots Dr Mr Mikey. Whats happening in the channel?

[@rype27]

⁠unfortunately there’s not much that you can really do about the bots. Once a channel starts to get more attention they appear. You can report them all you like but it’s a systemic KZbin issue, not a particular channel issue.

5:04 bold of you to assume I have a parter or friend in the gym (or any area of my life for that matter)

[@aIexminsky]

I've tried Jared's hairstyle, but in a different part of the body. Weirdly, when I try to show it off to people they normally run away or call the police.

[@KuminIn-r1w]

[@the_nerd_showtv5562]

I honestly prefer bodybuilders when they're a couple of weeks out, still looks shredded, but way fucking bigger (and I guess it's a little bit healtier for them too?)

[@florianhogger8600]

I got the Gohan Reference. And Mike was correct about the other Part too. Scary.

Broooo 😂😂😂 My sister lives in Tampa Her crib is good tho lmao thank god S tier comment brother

[@carterrolen3413]

Never really thought about being deliberate about hypertrophy until watching your videos and decided to try it out with simple push-ups on some boxes to give me some extra depth and hooooly cow, 20 reps with a deliberate focus on extension at the bottom of the range of motion was ridiculous. I was a little iffy about my latent homosexuality, but I am now wet for you.

[@jessebrown1400]

On the contrary I absolutely adore the lying curls you and Jared are pushing, I usually do the Free-motion variation but if you follow those up with Spiders or Scott bench curls it is like the Houdini Secret Lever. The pump will actually make you think the biceps are going split your skin or something, it's next lvl.

[@gorilaz0n]

You’ve got to check out Derek’s leg training. His stretch pauses are legit

[@WaveDaveB]

Love the "not falling in line" part! 🤣

[@troymarshall3621]

Mike, you are the fuckin man iv just started your app, and honestly can say the best app iv ever fuckin used. Work out are mint pumps are fuckin crazy. You are the fuckin DON of muscle training ❤

[@pablofanito6308]

LOVE YOUR CHANNEL DR MIKE

[@michaelhesssoup]

Those smith machines truly are awesome for guys under 5’4. Hope you get one Dr.Mike!!!!

[@EdwarkingOFitness]

12:46 the GHD situp is the BEST ab exercise for hypertrophy. You get a HUGE stretch in the abs and hip flexors that is hard to get in any other exercise including the dragon flag or what DR.Mike recoined "candle sticks ". Dragon flags are better for strength/stability and power since when you master it is just an isometric( your core is NOT supposed to bend = no stretch) anyways hope that helps any of you guys and encouragez yall to try it outz! (PR: 5x5 20lbs plate and 5x10 bodyweight) Im currently a bit of a fat f*ck at 240lbs like 23% BF and still have visible abs !

[@keagenmccartha7412]

u dont want ur hip flexors ruining ur ab exercises 🤣🤣 also unless ur 212 stageweight or higher, u prob dont need to be training abs at all

[@yvyneath]

​@@keagenmccartha7412 I sure need to train abs. I am currently at a low body fat percentage and they look small and plain even though they are completely visible.

[@keagenmccartha7412]

@@yvyneath u likely need to train harder in general then

[@EdwarkingOFitness]

@@keagenmccartha7412 your hip flexors are actually connected to your abs😮(shocking, ik). they, along with your quads, tibialis, pectoral muscles, front part of the neck,etc make up your anterior chain... The candlestick exercise DR.mike highlighted engages your hip flexors as well and so do like 99% of the other ab exercises because that's just how the body WORKS. Lastly EVERYONE should train their abs... Because its part of your core and like..... That's like 50% of your body and it's the center of your physique aesthetically and functionally they help you not wreck your spine when you lift heavy sh!t as well as LITERALLY PREVENT GRAVITY FROM FU(KING FOLDING YOU FOWARDS AND YOUR ORGANS FROM SPILLING OUT. but yeah you probably don't need to train it at all you can just get by having big arms,legs,back, and a beer gut just make sure you save some pussy for the rest of us king 👑.

[@keagenmccartha7412]

@@EdwarkingOFitness you want to hit abs without engaging ur hip flexors. ud understand if u were built half decent... im 5'9 200 with abs that have veins on them. guess what. never worked abs. if you actually trained hard ur abs would be engaged during most lifts

[@JermichaelAdventures]

I love the comments of the guys in the background… The more they say that is their honest opinion… And they’re not afraid to get fired… The funnier it is

[@stevengandia9967]

I always recommend providing assistance on forced reps by pressing or pulling on the lifter's hands (or legs, elbows, etc.) rather than the bar whenever possible so they can judge the amount of assistance I am providing.

[@kevinmarquez9891]

Mike ,whats your advice on weight training for mature people with a history of cardiac issues

[@ButtmanAtHeart]

Omg if you have a history of cardiac issues you should never exercise again! Picking up a weight and going for a walk will kill you!!

3 on 1 off is great, people think your muscle can count how many days there is in a week, they can't, if you hit chest monday, you won't be able to hit arms wednesday, just space them, if you take 8/9 day to rotate all your workouts is fine, listen for your recovery, 2 rest days in a week can make wonders to your physique
