@@joe94c I would say probably. Even beginners wouldn't be introduced to this channel no matter how informative it is, simply because the information, even though accurate, can be hard to swallow. I myself had to start out with zumba thinking it'd gain me any muscle. At the very least it built up my endurance and shedded some of my weight. Although I think because of that, it got me more into fitness, and eventually informative fitness. It can be a slowburn for people inexperienced, especially inexperienced people without much time for fitness, but if things turn out well and they continue their fitness journey, then they'll definitely improve.

[@graemebland4169]

@@joe94c I think it was mostly because he had a very similar body to mine. I also had very little muscle and felt like the fitness (or lifting/ bodybuilding/ strongman) space wasn't for people with a physique like mine. I already watched Felix's content quite avidly and seeing someone who resonated so much with me go through such a transformative process was incredible. It allowed me to see the real "before" - let's be honest, we don't get to see the real "before" from most influencers in the space. So yeah, in a way, he made it attainable. And as @user-wn3wv5bx5e said, there's not a huge influencer market for people looking to dip their toes in the space.

@@Ryan-gb3ik okay thanks for correcting me… sorry that I don’t know the legal details in regards to pewdiepie’s unique gaming chair he sells. Because of the way pewd’s would always make sure to mention it (aka market it) each KZbin video, I just figured that pewd’s owned the company selling the gaming chairs so that he was making maximal profit from each gaming chair sale. I guess whatever his contract is with the gaming chair company that’s making/selling his unique gaming chair design + pewdiepie’s brand / KZbin persona, it basically must be way too expensive to try to start a gaming chair company from scratch, so after punching in the numbers, he figured out it would be way to much work / way to expensive to do it all by himself from scratch. So he partnered with clutch chairz for the project, as they already have all the infrastructure set up and ready to go, only needing to input the chairs pewdiepie graphics, and tweak the desigh so it can recline all the way to flat / 180 degrees. All that stuff is besides the point though, because it doesn’t matter if pewds started a chair brand from scratch or if he collaborated with an existing chair brand to create a unique pewdiepie branded gaming chair… at the end of the day, pewds does have a unique gaming chair piece of merchandise he can advertise and sell.

[@antonazizi137]

This is the first video I’ve watched from you and I really love the way you talk and it’s just so wholesome somehow

[@pamelaberry6875]

This is exactly what I needed! I only have a bench and dumbbells in my house and I wasn't sure if that was enough to build a sufficiently fit body. After watching this and taking in Dr. Mike's advice I'm more confident in it now. Thanks!!

[@low-kar]

I have the same setup, actually I bought it because I saw pewdiepies video a year ago. Can confirm you can absolutely build muscle with the setup

[@aethylwulfeiii6502]

Ironically hypertrophy needs less equipment than increasing total strength. If your goal is to get the strongest possible legs the dumbells quickly run into a problem of being very annoying to rack for heavy ATG heel elevated front squats. Even from just the floor, the barbell ends up being easier to rack for this.

[@aca347]

I've been working out for a year and I don't have access to a gym all the time. A pair of dumbbells is really all you need if you want to shape up your physique. Maybe as you get more advanced get a pull up bar and some resistance bands but beyond that you really don't need anything else. You don't even need a lot of weight on the dumbbells either. There are plenty of techniques and form changes you can do to make an exercise more difficult with the same weight. Hell, plenty of people built really good-looking bodies with bodyweight exercises alone. "I don't have the equipment at home and the gyms are far away and expensive" is an excuse.

Träna ben, train leg. Perfekt översättning frågar du mig 👌💯

[@Heycasualman]

Pewdiepie’s humor is self-aware and purposefully silly, part of it is the self-awareness of the culture he has come to represent in a way; gaming nerd culture(cring). Realistically, He’s probably one of the least delusional creators on the platform and always authentically trying to improve himself. I would love to see him making a react to this for sure. Also. Yes Mike hop on twitch! Hafthor streams, martins has a channel, and Knut is “the guy” with bodybuilding on Twitch.

[@buenadzidzia6328]

I just love how Dr. Mike just got in on the "but can you do this?" thing with Pewdiepie's epic gaming chair

[@MaxGalofre]

Can you imagine a collab between these two, where Dr.Mike teaches and trains PewDiePie? That would be sports science education that could reach a massive audience.

[@loganl8643]

Insane. Would completely break my mind 😂 😂 😂

[@carlosmspk]

I like them both, but their humour types are a bit too different, I think. It would be a bit awkward. Just look at this video when PewDiePie cracks jokes and it flies right over Dr. Mike's head (not that there's anything wrong with that)

[@malcolmsilva]

Some context on the pewds. The reason for the dumbbell only setup is cause Felix tries, to a point, to be minimalist. On top of that he was waiting to move to Japan, but borders were closed due to covid, so he didn't want to keep buying stuff when eventually he was going to move. Now that he has moved, his setup isn't much bigger, he has a bench, dumbbells and a power rack(?) for some barbell work and pull-ups. For gfuel, it's probably his biggest sponsor and it's a powder energy (140mg caffeine*)(supplement, so big *). Usually it's pretty clear that he's joking when he makes inane claims, like you can't say "you will win 1 million dollars", but you can say "you might win 1 million dollars" and give away nothing, because then it's a statement of chance, not necessarily of a giveaway. So usually I expect he'd say "drink gfuel and you might get 10% muscle growth" while making a face that makes it pretty clear he's joking, or saying something before or after that shows he's about to or just made a joke. But honestly I watch him enough and turn off my brain when sponsors are mentioned so I wouldn't register it if he didn't do it. All the bias. Either way, finally a workout reaction to someone I follow, so figured I'd chime in, haha.

[@Tom-fl8eh]

I think there have been some studies of how caffeine can potentially help working out. Don't know how true it is though.

[@meodrac]

it boosts energy helping you work out more, that's basically it @@Tom-fl8eh

You really overexplained his joke about G-Fuel hahaha. Of course it was a joke, and the way he says it so "plainly" with no facial expressions, is part of the dry delivery that he does a lot.

[@Osprey1994]

Felix started practicing stoicism a while back, and he has really tried to avoid having a ton of material things. So this is probably part of why he has such a spartan setup.

[@sammckenzie6760]

I think he's gone too far Should 100% use a basic squat rack set up

[@beardyjesus4591]

I don't know, his living room looks quite fancy for a minimalist. I guess, he doesn't really need more, but I think a rack with a barbell and pull up set up would be cool

Hammer Curls legit made my biceps get a peak. They were just huge log shaped .. I'm 6'7 so I have long arms. When I started to do hammers, the peak in the middle came out of no where and made my arms look so much better.

[@rinne-8810]

Your biceps just grew. Nothing to do with hammer curla.

[@MorganTiller]

I think hammer curls get the brachialis a little extra. And a thicker brachialis might make that peak show up

[@justinbailey2347]

I've always heard basic curls with a pinch of external rotation to it target the distal head of the bicep for more peak development. Could be old school broscience that makes sense logically but not scientifically but something to consider. I can see my bicep split when i get to the end contracted range of motion on it. I prefer hammer curls just for the alleged strength crossover for building up to one arm chinups.

[@rinne-8810]

@@justinbailey2347 So theoretically according to science, external or internal rotation at the elbow would bias the different heads of the biceps. In practice this is so negligable that it would only matter and be seen if you've got Lee Priests arms and stage bodybuilding condition. You cannot specifically build up the peak, only make your arms bigger and even then some humungous bis with long insertions might still not have a peak.

On one hand I respect the fact that he wanted to get a full workout and he managed to do it with just 2 dumbbells and a bench, but also he's printing money and could afford any type of coaching he wanted. Just tell your assistant to find you a coach to make you a program. It'll be just a penny for you

[@34zporlier10]

I believe at the time him and his wife had downsized a lot and had spent some time getting rid if things he didnt use. Its been a while since Ive watched but i remeber him having a few videos where he mentioned that basically after having a studio and being able to buy anything and everything he just wasnt happy with "stuff". so he went pretty minimulist and spends a lot more time traveling. I saw in a few other comments that he got himself a proper power rack setup when they moved
