Ido Portal: Movement

[@alejandroangellopez921]

Comming here from the episode with Dr. Huberman, thank you so much! 😍

[@craighaydn854]

Lex, I know ido is a very hard person to interview due his schedule. But now that your questions and outlooks on life have evolved more so since this here podcast 8 yrs ago. It would be a dream come true for myself if you were to have him on your podcast once again. I say this as a long term student of idos and daily practitioner. And a daily listener of the lex fridman podcast. Love your work and g’day from Australia.

[@ropeflowworldwide]

Replying for visibility to Lex.

yess would mean a lot if it can happen

We need a round 2 🔥

[@GoatNinja]

Round 2!

[@alexchaney8916]

Beautiful. Props to both Ido and Lex for putting this thing together.

[@lexfridman]

Thanks Alex. He is one of the most professional and yet down-to-earth people I've ever talked to.

Loving this guy's podcast. Starting from the beginning, day 1.

[@jacobcochrane9069]

I feel like I got a much better picture of Ido here vs the recent Huberman talk. The recent one was so foo-foo, for me, I didn't finish it. This was more clear and easy to appreciate. And, man, I didn't know Lex was doing this so long ago!

[@andy3410]

Can’t believe this is 8 years old and just found this. GET HIM BACK PLEEEAAAAAASSSSSE

[@frescogelato]

Thanks to Andrew Huberman for bringing this one up during the last podcast with Lex, didn't know about this one

[@MelanieSakowski]

Me too exactly this!

[@ChandlerSavage]

What a beautiful conversation and amazing questions by Lex. Such a pleasure to be able to hear Ido flow with his deep wisdom and knowledge of mind-body connections.

[@LoneWolf-wu6yn]

That is what separates the great from the norm. Not obscure, just different. In a productive way.

[@sthenics]

"Injuries are a certainty. They are not a probability. ... They are also required." Ido Portal cites Nassim Taleb. His concept, Antifragility, provides a proactive response patterns within stressful, painful or dangerous circumstances. Ido practices this philosophy in his movement and life. Regarding injury, Ido Portal rejects the concept of rest. He recommends work in place of rest. He cautions not just to work through the pain. But to work with the pain.

[@lexfridman]

The concept of antifragility is fascinating. I personally tend to focus on avoiding injury but the idea of growing from injury is an even more powerful one. I'm not sure how grounded it is in reality. I would like to see more studies on actual athletic performance and recovery rates.

[@practicalsaint]

Ride the wave of adaptation out of the problem🤙🏼🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌈🏄♥️🙏🏽

[@petecabrina]

I guess this explains quite a lot why Ido can be quite intolerable, he is obsessed by a work mentality and seems to be quite lacking in an ability to let his hair down. I find the contrast between him and someone like Wim Hof quite interesting, Wim being far more accessible and simple in his methodology, but also clearly providing a method and path to antifragility, probably even more so than Ido. As someone who had ME/CFS for 20 years rest and recovery is an art form in and of itself, as is being able to take breaks from everything, removing oneself from all mental attachments and going and having a good time.

[@ricolini70]

wait Lex and Ido had a podcast together? I never thought these two would connect LOL

[@rubenpartono]

It's not far-fetched when you realize that Lex is a deep thinker who's into physical fitness and martial arts. But even then, it does still feel like such a weird crossover!

[@disciplineequalsfreedom6391]

Same Here | Sadly It isn't the Video but the essence is same, no matter what.

[@LoneWolf-wu6yn]

Those that inspire us, are always inspired by others. I am very thankful that Lex and Ido did this. That is what makes beautiful minds so special and needing to be cherished. Whether they realize it or not.

[@oggyfoxy]

its funny that a month or 2 ago I asked if he could have Ido Portal on his podcast. And I just find out his first podcast is with him ! Crazy haha

[@marlonscloud]

Late to this but really enjoy your podcasts, cheers

[@sasstemir]

Oh my god Lex Fridman and Ido Portal! I'm so happy about this

[@mPajuhaan]

Hey Lex, I was just curious about how people get started and finally saw your first video. Its journey is fascinating.

[@katelynf4927]

WOW- I’m late to the party but so glad this exists

[@BeachHouseFan]

I have arrived. Here, at the beginning.

[@ironlungs8177]

In our village in the north of Lebanon 🇱🇧, Bcharrie, we also have bone setters till this day! Bone fractures heal in 10 days..with no cast! Only a bandage

[@MrChaluliss]

Ido Portal has a wonderful perspective, deeply philosophical and curious. His thoughts go so far beyond just movement which is profound, and unexpected given hes no academic in any traditional sense.

[@arunwashere]

i wish i had an older brother like Lex. this was refreshing. thank you and god speed.

[@hardikjain2992]

ok arun

[@isuckatthisgame]

Ido, a great man. Have a happy day, everyone!

[@guylevy3129]

You really should try to invite him again, very interesting

[@xPartyprinzx]

Thanks a lot for this! I really liked the questions you had, making it an very interesting interview.

[@lexfridman]

Thanks Daniel Cascada. Someone said it, and it rang true to me: "The only thing that Ido does more than move is think." He is a movement philosopher, and that makes for a great conversation.

[@SevenDeMagnus]

First, the humble beginnings. God bless.

[@LaurieMarieValdezRNCCRN]

AWESOME❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jameyd4155]

Wow!! His candor is impressive! @13:00 - “A lot of f’ing Poindexters … they don’t wanna work“ He had me howling. 👍

[@PooDotStinkPants]

Hello future person, yes a legend was born. You're right, the channel has come a long way since posting this video. Indeed, people are still watching in *[insert date here]* Take care and have a lovely day!

Thanks Eric.

Thanks MelodicWarrior. There will be much more in the near future.

[@TheKrasTel]

[@happysimonrelax]

Perspectives, experience and outlook on the world of movement have changed dramatically in Ido Portal. It would be a great idea if you would invite him again :)

[@Navidsiamaki]

Thank you for posting high quality content

[@GomTiles]

Love this! Great discussion. Great questions. So timely to our situation today. "Everybody's weird." I'm going to explore some more Tom Waits...

Can you please have this guy on again with video? Please Lex! PLZZZZZ

[@selfhelp441]

at 30:00 who is the philosopher he's talking about?

[@Rigotto90]

You commented on this 8 months ago and I'm sure you've moved on, but FYI and for others information anyway: he is talking about Nassim Taleb the author of "Antifragile: Things that gain from disorder"

[@allan2240]

Nassim Taleb

[@manuelkarner8746]

I think the very idea of antifragility is essentiel for idos "ideas"/way

[@MajinXarris]

Did lex start doing podcasts seven years ago??

[@NancyLebovitz]

A lot of good sense there, but I wonder what would happen if Portal tried pursuing flexibility in how he treats his students.

[@InYourFaceMoFo]

That flexibility is also needed for cultures like usa/canada. As Ido had no patience for them he needed 'patience filter ppl' 🤣😂

[@jorgeandresbaquerizo4881]

@lex consider bringing him back!! (Ido)

Great questions

[@moodydolly]

That final quote, it's nice and pretty, no sorry, I meant it's pretty disturbing: it doesn't matter if you lose your wife or your family? You will be along with the gods? So, if this is supposed to apply to movement and movement culture, it's just a selfish egotistic pursuit. It's not about bettering onself for the benefit of all humanity and sharing knowledge, it's about healing your wounded ego or pride at whatever cost. And what for? To feel all noble and strong ? If you can't keep and prioritise your family, and the person you made vows to, your strength and your physicality amount to nothing.

[@lucaalexej2142]

I think its more about listening to what you really want, to not hold back a part of you, not letting the fear of losing something dictate your actions but yeah you can read it in many ways :)

[@moodydolly]

@T S "to better oneself is to better all of humanity" can you explain that please? It doesn't make sense to me. Edit: Aslo, how is it only disturbing to me when a few people liked my comment? It's probably also disturbing for 12 other people (i know, it's not that many ;) it's more to make a small point ;) )

If there's one thing I hate about Ido is how his bloated ego makes him take things personally and unable to accept a the truth that can change his view to the world. He likes to learn and to look further, but only in his limited view of the world. Otherwise, great interview

[@dans9216]

+Nidhal Are talking about Ido Portal...? Bloated ego? He is very humble....sometimes teacher, other times student.

[@Ricardoromero4444]

You clearly haven't read enough about the guy

[@BeyondSideshow]

Nidhal "hate" his "bloated ego"... meh. haters gonna hate i guess. or did you have a truth that ido portal would benefit from?

[@funnyberries4017]

@@BeyondSideshow his celiac bit was wrong. I’m a celiac diseased man, and it’s an autoimmune issue tied to the DNA. I ate gluten for the first 16 years of my life, and people thought I had autism. I thought I was fine eating gluten every day, but in reality I had no idea my optimal state. Perhaps other allergies based on gut bacteria could be trained away, but not celiac. Celiac is in the DNA unfortunately.

[@BeyondSideshow]

@@funnyberries4017 Yeah. Portal may be many things, but he isn't really a nutritionist

[@terracotta101]

as a movement specialist, I have no idea what this guy is talking about

[@terracotta101]

A degree in kinesiology (human movement science) certified In rehab and prehab training and pilates certified. ...just to list a few of my credentials

[@movementnerd]

+Terra Cardwell so your degrees make you a specialist? wow.........grow up

[@terracotta101]

+Abhishek would you tell someone, wow- your degree makes you a lawyer, doctor, teacher etc.... yes, people go to school to study a specialty then spend years applying that knowledge to gain additional experience and knowledge, thus specializing in that topic. that's what a Kinesiologist is...human movement science. I specialize in human movement

[@prisoneroftech2237]

Your paper credentials don't make you a movement specialist

[@ceili]

If you are a 'movement specialist' and you don't have any idea what Ido is talking about, then maybe it's time for another career!

A podcast to bring peace to the middle east hey lex I follow your podcast and I am going to make my own podcast with the goal to bring peace to the middle east. I am from Israel I see my country deteriorating and going backward. our leaders are corrupted, our news is filled with propaganda, the critical infrastructure is collapsing or corrupted and it seems like no one care. But I care. I care for my people the Jewish people, I care for the Palestine people, I care for the children born to a grim future here, I care for our neighbouring countries. I live here, I was born here and I want a good future to the middle East. I am not interested in politics I am into truths and science. 2 years ago I decided to go the polymath road for the rest of my life. So it is fitting for a polymath to be able to have high quality discussion across science disciplines. I want to create a science podcast similar to yours, but instead of asking at the end "what is the meaning of life" I would ask "what do you think will bring peace to Israel and our region the middle East" or variation of that. I truly believe that 100s of long from discussions about each guest speciality and ending with advice to the middle East. slowly but surely can change our region for the better. I am learning Arabic for this purpose. If you see this I would love your help and advice on how to kick-start this life project. @Lex Fridman
