Mike secretly knows three weird tips to help reduce belly fat, but he isn't telling us.

[@MarcusWolford]

I think you mean "Unwanted" Belly Fat

[@Houseguy2]

That's just so doctors won't hate him!

[@antonysuarezdiaz7370]

There's something about the way he explains everything that makes me wanna be like him when i grow up (even though im already 26).Crystal clear, sarcastic and hilarious in the same amount; this dude is a legend. keep up the good work!

[@mr350znismo7]

the Bro impersonations are hysterical

[@lalaithan]

BRA

[@bmstylee]

Bruh.

[@aaronsoodonihm8816]

But bruh, my high rep, light weight, quarter range curls build the biggest bicep peaks on the short head bro...

[@mossbergmaniac1947]

That skullcrusher elbow tweak is amazing. My elbows thank you. I can't thank you enough for sharing that.

[@aidanmaccoiste1591]

Heard this guy on a podcast years ago and haven't found him since. So glad this came up in my suggested videos. Love what he does and the way he gets information across. 10/10 no room for improvement

[@Alfonso152012]

Love it when Dr. Mike brings out Gym Bro Mike

[@PulsePersonalTraining]

"My god, do you know how many motor units you are missing out on!?" This is gold! I have practically said that before!

[@paulwhite959]

I'm going to try that skullcrushers tweak. For me the best part of tweaks has been getting around old joint injuries. Even if it actually restricts my weights, if it saves me from another surgery, worth it!

[@Jhev1000]

"If you had a gun to your head, how many more [reps] could you have done?" "Well, like infinity, BUT the point, is activation and feelin' ittt" Hahaha

[@02eman]

Always appreciate the advice giving by this guy! Thank YOU so much

[@mr.longwetdong597]

6:02 lmao I love that bro impression.

[@Offgridyurtliving]

Rock on dude! You guys are doing an awsome job with this channel! Different, unique and real!👌🏼👌🏼💪🏼

[@XTheSpartanX7]

Videos with Dr Mike are the best.

[@jaz_ok]

do i agree with everything here , yes and no , there are some basic movements that do'nt work well for some people eg , basic shoulder pressing never produced good shoulders on people like larry scot but pressing with a rotation worked wonders , i also experience the same thing , my experience has shown me you really have to find the exercises and ways of doing them that suit your body structure ,

[@KaokashinPlays]

jaz ok that's actually the very first point he made..... he compared it to doing a skullcrusher with a slight tweak and how it prevented a lot of elbow pain. the exercise isn't the problem your bodies mechanics are the problem, and you need to adjust the exercises accordingly

[@jamesbrannigan706]

absolutely agree for example I can only squat with a very wide stance with feet flared - any closer and I get back pain, also I don't feel safe and in control with close stance.. get in touch with your body and it will generally point you in the right direction IMO anyway..

[@absternator]

jaz ok do you know who this guy is. Lol

[@joshuabrown1296]

I could listen to him all day lol

[@Phamine]

Great channel and info. You guys should have so much more subs

[@pricerowland]

Thanks for a great cost-benefit analysis. Also, you just saved my elbows with that skullcrusher tweak.

[@kavinpatel2748]

"Weird cable fucky stuff"

[@Prollo87]

the stuff with i feel it much better that way is fine. its called activation work done before the working sets like after or in the wormup. so you feel the muscle you working and can then go heavy and give him the stimulation.

[@serbanalex8062]

Sir, great advices on a good topic! Your knowledge, tips and advices presentend in all your videos really helped me to step up my own training and also my career as a personal trainer. I'm looking forward to next video! Thank you🙏 and keep it up!

[@autoanorak]

Fantastic video: concise, informative, relevant.

[@XXLRebel]

I'm a personal trainer and adviced a guy that was doing t-bar row microreps with 20Kg plates to use 10Kg plates to get a bigger range of motion so get a bigger stimulus. He told me he definitely tried full range of motion but it doesn't work for him. The excuses... He also thought that he had great results but he just has a big frame with a lot of fat on it. Imagine having that potential and wasting it by doing some quarter rep bullshit. A personal trainer tries to help you and you completely disregard their advice😂

[@hectorvlcc23]

This video destroy Broscience. Salutations from Spain.

[@EthanMckennaMusic]

Love your delivery!

[@nelkku4664]

It hurts my shoulders just to see that upright row thingy at the intro everytime

[@woffe8094]

*Watches athlean X once*

[@Russocass]

The technique is ok though, that's more like a high pull, which is safe, than an upright row. No shoulder danger there.

[@davecom3]

Someone needs to show this vid to the naïve lifters following Athlean X videos to a tee. Isolation light weight work should never take priority over heavier compound work for naturals.

[@ValladaresJ0]

This video was Gold. Thank you

[@tiagocampos9824]

Can somebody explain to me what Dr. Mike said about skull crushers? I didn't get it very well. My elbows absolutely KILL me when I do them. Must be doing them wrong but I didn't understand the change he made to stop feeling that ache

[@dcshorty201010]

The way he mocks douchebags is awesome.

[@giannaambrosi9724]

Great video guys, love the channel

[@brolyui4484]

I dont know english but i still understand dr mike

[@lolekbolek676]

Where are the bodypart series?

[@StrongButAwkward]

Dr. Mike's feelings on doing some mind muscle light stuff (like the hold and squeeze single arm lat cable pulldown he gave as an example) for muscles you've already hit with some heavy weight for volume at the very end of a workout before you head out the door vs just leaving?

[@benba2616]

Nate Also interested in a response to this. Partly as I've only ever seen/used this to help activate muscles (mainly lats which I struggled to activate when I started training)

[@benba2616]

^Before doing heavy stuff, not instead (just to clarify)

[@viktorbraa]

its probably just junk volume if its not programmed as a metabolic fatigue build up

[@jk3639]

almost pissed myself at the bro impressions. 6:00 is straight from a Bradley Martyn video haha

[@lucabalestra1638]

Wow, shots fired at Athlean X lol.

[@zachwalt9246]

he gets so fired up over gym bros hah love it

[@DanielDimov358]

Yeah but what if you can use full range of motion and go close and simetimes to failure but really don't feel that muscle working? You end up getting strong and not bigger.

[@dessertstorm7476]

please release a free program

[@Jamtastic]

He's more likely to point you in the direction of another free programme, as there are a lot out there which are really quite good. Look into things like Stronglifts, westside, ICF, etc if you're looking for novice stuff. For more advanced stuff I recommend looking around a little more into things like the Bulgarian Method, for example.

[@dessertstorm7476]

Westside? and...Good lord, ICF? come on man. Juggernaut totally disagree with Westside style training and ICF is a complete joke these days. They also did a critique on bulgarian method with max aita.

[@Jamtastic]

Oh really? First I've heard of it, I didn't know that.Can you explain more please?

[@dessertstorm7476]

explain which part? This channel does critiques of a lot of different programs, they're known for being particularly harsh on westside. The ICF thing. Basically it's a 5x5 program written by Jason Blaha and is just a basic 5x5 program with 1 or 2 things added to it. Jason Blaha is a figure of ridicule due to his history of continuous extravagant lies, (such as being a mercenary assassin) just type his name into youtube for huindreds of videos exposing and mocking him, the program was taken down by tiger fitness who used to host it. It's not a bad routine perse, because he didn't write it. But I really want to follow something from Juggernaut, since they seem to be the most scientific guys out there doing this. (their renaissance periodization templates are kind of expensive though)

[@IvdAEROvm]

Just do Sheiko 3 day program. Either the one over 80kg or under 80kg.

[@SnowDenix]

thank you doctor

[@hiskoa6899]

I just love this guy !

[@sebastianschaffner112]

Then menno henselmans lat prayer is a garbage? Is that what you're trying to say? 5:58

[@nathanmillsap9486]

Literally everybody who lifts weights needs to watch this video

[@mach5jeep]

'Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder, but nobody wants to lift no heavy-ass weights.'

[@kmofighter1]

did someone chew up an addy before the video or is he doing triples for his blinking/eye lid gainz?

[@sheldonhendrix1983]

Super informative video.

[@matheusfrota95]

AWESOME

[@sunnysideup5826]

Love you doc!

[@donluchitti]

So would it be safe for me to extrapolate from this vid that cheat reps are pretty damn cool because you're not sacrificing weight for form but the opposite? (provided the cheat reps are not really small range of motion)

[@JuggernautTrainingSystems]

Don L kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnSTgoiqatmliZY

[@climbscience4813]

That's not quite right. If you do cheat reps, you usually use other muscles to help lift the weight. Consequently, if you do a cheat curl with 50 lbs dumbbells, the weight that has been lifted by your arm flexors are probably only 40 lbs. Cheat curls might have other benefits (different resistance curve, additional volume after muscle failure with conventional technique etc.), but they're not a magic bullet.

[@donluchitti]

I agree they're not a magic bullet. I usually perform a strict set immediately after my cheat set so I try to get the best of both worlds. But if one is an experienced lifter, cheat sets are pretty essential to get big because of the overload. It's essentially a way to spot yourself if you do it without too much momentum and form breakdown (involving other muscle groups).

[@andrewvincent89]

youre awesome, doc

[@eltiodelhandstand]

There are three magic exercises: squat, bench press, deadlift

[@KaokashinPlays]

joserry89 deadlift, deadlift, deadlift

[@darthkillstealer3181]

joserry89 and one secret magic one, the ohp

[@aduc92]

No, there is only one, which is bicep curl

[@Prollo87]

most olympic lifts are in combination with a squat in some variation think about it. these guys are strong to.

[@legolad444]

Ohp, rows, goodmornings

[@mr.longwetdong597]

MORE DAMNMIT! GOOD VID!

[@Davidinostroza-ks5yq]

what if i start with heavy compound movements, deadlifts then weighted pull ups.. bent over barbell rows, then a couple of drop sets of one arm dumbell rows..then when my back is tired.. cables rows like shotgun rows or machines to target the back a little bit more??.. i mean.. its ok to use those tweaks that way or am i wrong?

[@siebenedrissg]

of course that's okay, he even mentioned that.

[@Davidinostroza-ks5yq]

oh.. ok hahaha

[@arentyou23]

#saveDahElbows #elbowsafety #starnips Always awesome

[@theylivewesee1674]

I love Bro Mike

[@robvas]

I knew Efferding rows were the shit

[@sgfitness1030]

As a personal trainer I couldn't agree more with ALL the points you made, great video!

[@GiorgioPagnoni]

we want the hypertrophy guides

[@JuggernautTrainingSystems]

Here is the first one: kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=vo1pWGX-Td4

[@GiorgioPagnoni]

yeah I know, I mean, we want more!

[@RedfishCarolina]

Super cool TWERKS and techniques, eh?

[@arande3]

You're wearing a lav how is it still so roomy? Did you mess up? Lol And great content as always

[@JakubKowalski93]

amen

[@2juanito7]

Oooh, ill make sure i can still "produce good loads" ;)

[@a.zeu1TV]

Almost a diss to natty bbuilders like Drug Miller

[@koolaidac]

I just confuse my body with feeder workouts#whateverittakes

[@backfru]

we have 6 degrees of freedom, not jut tri planar! and through a proprietary mix of joint mobility, steel indian clubs, and flow yoga- you can build real world functional strength, and hardcore tactical fitness! because squats and deadlifts are poorly designed exercises, that lead to pain, regress, injury and compressive forces

[@kavinpatel2748]

This man is so smart what the heck lol

[@ChinChillR63s]

Most of what you claim as tweaks are in reality just the difference in good form and going through a motion as most do in commercial gyms

[@madhavraj1650]

Asmr his voice

[@semiephemeral9]

Even if Mike had nothing useful to say it would be worth it for the jokes.

[@bmstylee]

Wierd cable fucky stuff. That sounds like a highly technical term.

[@paulchristie3306]

He doesn't look like a Doctor & he's probably on the 'juice'.

[@stevend481]

god i hate the bodybuilding broscience like squeezing, activating, half reps, cable shit etc...

[@darthkillstealer3181]

Steven Diahy you gotta take your pump to the cables and give the gals from silver sneakers a reason to get out of the home for a day though. Pay it forward.

[@americanmambi]

yes, ALWAYS DO HEAVY LOADS and you will always be a man

[@papasjr]

Who else to say it better than Mike !! Best 💪🏻
