[@itzthatsway]

I hate that Layne gets hated on so much. He has provided so much quality information for so long. He’s continuously providing and educating. So many people don’t even know that he’s been doing this shit with every single fad diet/exercise over a decade. I’m forever thankful for the all of the information that you all constantly put out. Layne and MindPump still EXTREMELY underrated.

[@quix99]

It’s because of his demeanor…

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

It's because he's wrong about a lot of things, just like everybody else. He recently made a video of the benefits of eating ice cream for your health. What kind of ignoramus do you have to be to recommend ice cream as a health food?

[@faisalnoor7081]

@@ClassicJukeboxBand The kind that values data over feelings.

[@1mike60915]

​@ClassicJukeboxBand The only example I could think of in that instance is maybe a big maybe but maybe I it's an organic ice cream with lower sugar and only done occasionally lol.

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

@@1mike60915 Good point, but it still in not a health food. Not even close.

[@michelguyfortin]

I've been following Layne for over a decade or more. One of my favourites in this space. His teachings, among others, were pivotal in helping me lose 100 pounds, fix two herniated discs, and break a powerlifting record for deadlifting 475 pounds at 48 years old. Great show, as usual, guys! Thank you for everything you put out.

[@haynesmi86]

How you fix the discs??

[@Chronos4088]

@@haynesmi86 I don't remember everything, but I do remember he read the Stuart McGill Back Mechanic and it helped a lot.

[@rachelellis8133]

Hey guys. I'm loving all your content. As a 49 year old woman you're knowledge and guests have motivated me to lift heavy and balance my life for optimum health and fitness as I age. I can't thank you enough!!

[@harshitboss]

Woah! This was so unexpected! A podcast with Layne Norton! Awesome!!!! Any person on the earth who gets a chance to have a 1 on 1 Fitness training with any of you guys would be so damn lucky! Thanks for sharing this podcast..

[@KnuckleHead1983]

I’ve lost 32 lbs thanks to all of you and your valuable information and how to go about doing things the right way especially with nutrition. I struggled a lot with that and thanks y’all I’m back in the game! 💪🏻

[@maxinereed7667]

Can I just say a massive HALLEFREAKINLUJAH for this conversation!! I love, love, love Layne Norton! What he said about people pleasing actually really speaks to me. I was bullied as a child and actually have never associated that with my people pleasing behaviour. I, like Layne, twist and contort myself, when I know in my heart of hearts that I need to say no. This awareness is invaluable. Thank you Mind Pump for being real and defending the honour of your average Joe; for acknowledging the difficulties involved in transforming your health. We need more of these discussions in fitness and in the world. Mike drop🎤

[@greglovelace246]

Just follow how to live from the bible, that's all you need

I think if and only if any thing is missing from you podcast to make it the perfect guide for everyone to get his fitness life on track is adding Layne to the team Thanks guys for all the effort and priceless free information .. keep it up

[@SquintedVisions]

Thank you guys so much. I found your channel after starting TRT. Now I listen to all your videos while I workout everyday, really appreciate the knowledge and humor.

[@KnuckleHead1983]

I’ve said this many times before but y’all have helped me tremendously with my goals and weight loss etc. and have Layne Norton on the show whom I follow very closely and listen to his advice. Y’all are the best and a god send

[@stitchinginthebarn8307]

Awesome show! The variety of topics is so engaging! Y'all speak to every part of my life. Thank you for delivering quality content!

[@donaldwindland]

Lost 60 pounds in the last 9 months. Started a recomp with the techniques from your programs, and have continued to get smaller, stronger, and more muscular. Former well trained person and my body is waking up again from its long slumber. It’s great what you are putting put into the world.

[@alexisbarkley2054]

I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos! Your videos for personal trainers and for people who are thinking about becoming personal trainers have really helped me realize that this field is right for me. I’ve been in the healthcare field for many years but now I’m in the process of switching. Currently earning my degree in kinesiology/exercise science!

[@rachelellis8133]

I love these longer format podcasts, so much good information and you guys rock!

[@wilbertflores8486]

I think I speak for many of us who regret not having found your podcast before. Listening to you guys I have learned so much about how to improve my life in many aspects besides physically. All the guidance one can take from your conversations are tools that I am learning to implement. I did one year of mostly cardio and conditioning training but once I found you last December I started implementing weight lifting and in just 4 months I can say I love the change. So this in combination with all your tips have greatly changed my journey. Thank you guys and I hope to get my hand on one of your programs to keep improving.

So true about hunger... Learned from one source that there are three types of hunger. The challenge is educating yourself so you know which one you're experiencing in the moment so you can deal with it appropriately.

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

Eat all meat like I do, and that will solve your hunger problem, true fact. My hunger has diminished 80 percent of a carnivore diet...
