How to Know What The Best WORKOUT Program Is For YOU | Mind Pump 2004

[@jonnyharding3646]

I really like how all 3 of you completely respect the knowledge and experience of each other, yet will not hesitate to challenge each other when you disagree, always respectfully. Really liked how Adam waited for the caller to be off camera before challenging Sal as well, classy.

"Intuition is based on your knowledge of food" is SUCH a great insight. I was an "intuitive eater" for years until starting to track back in August of last year. I realized I was under-eating, not consuming nearly enough protein for my goals, scared of carbs, etc. Tracking helps me eat more, reach my goals, and see food as a tool to reaching those goals. It's setting me up for *successfully* intuitive eating in the future.

I have lost 32kg since last year of August and have been lifting weights since October. Watching you guys has kept me going and not lose my patience and educated me a lot. I still have 10% bodyfat I want to lose and I am sure I'll make it if I keep sticking to it like I have been until now. Thank you for making this content!

I've been listening to Mind Pump for the last 6-7 years!! Still by far my favorite podcast! I have listened to pretty much every episode. I love the way you have developed the show over time. You guys discuss so much useful information, not just in fitness, but in life. From fitness, parenting, family life, work ethic, success, financial, current events and interpersonal skills, you guys really cover it all! Anyone who doesn't listen is really missing out!! Thanks for all that you do!

[@christopherbenoit1002]

Like the runner I didn’t want to stop my routine. I’ve been on and off going to the gym since 16, I’m 32. Last January I was 280lbs, got back in gym doing PPL. Found you guys. Reluctantly followed anabolic 3 times a week. Always avoided squats and deadlifts. Just finished aesthetic and my squat is 315 for 5 from 185 for 2. I weigh 200 lbs now. Trust the process you guys are legit.

[@sandiriley5699]

Always love your videos! You guys have been with me on my post 46 year old fitness journey every step. You keep me motivated and interested in lifting.

[@MindPumpShow]

That is awesome!

[@FCT8306onTwoWheels]

you guys got a great show, damn. Recently got back into the groove with diet and exercise and have been doing intermittent fasting since 2/2/23 every day. Past two weeks so far have upped to protein to match my lean body mass at or above 140g daily and today discovered a 6 pound loss down to 166.6 pounds since a week and a half ago and all i did was my at home workouts two on one off and two on and one off but for the last week just did full body everyother and will probably stick to that schedule. About the food thing I been weighing my foods to the gram like 90 percent of the time unless i get something outside then im at the mercy of the nutrition label or internet, and I usually weigh the food right before it goes on my plate to eat it and as far as intuitive thing it just becomes familiar to the eye what 140g or 50g of a food would look like. I still use a food scale to weigh my foods. Working on besting my physique from 2013-2014 when I was 145 pounds and lean/skinny fat. Dont wanna turn 40 looking like bullshit this summer. Yo I listen to you guys when Im on the road in my truck and its so nice what you guys are doing. Peace

[@Burkhimself]

For several years I did a high volume 6 day workout (one part a day, last day was legs again and functional)….I eventually went away from flat bench barbell and went to Olympic ring w/weight vest work. It worked really well for a long time. I think I’m a bigger fan of full body workouts now. I’m going through Aesthetic for the 2nd time currently. 💪🏼

Oh the v a x comment about family not apologizing is spot on. I remember being left out of family gatherings bcuz I was “selfish” for not getting it.. now they all changed their narrative but still never apologized for how they made me feel.

Actually most (idk about your family and friends) still don't acknowledge anything changed. My parents still ask if I got tested if I tell them I have a cold or normal sickness from lack of sleep or nutrition ect. The fear was set in deep with many and they don't want to admit the "experts" were wrong as hell.

I used to do single body parts for like three years until I finally realized that it was all about periodization, now I change it up every 4 to 6 weeks and I do a small cut with a longer bulk. I also do 200 calories over maintenance to build .5 - 1 pounds a week theoretically. I also eat 40% carbs, 30% protein and 30% fat daily and feel great! You guys have helped me fine tune my workouts for myself and others!

Bro splits are great for advanced bodybuilding, which is why they are the most popular with pro bodybuilders. Personally I like Upper-Lower or Push-Pull-Leg splits as it allows me to have more focus on a muscle than full body workouts.

Just wanted to share this chipotle hack - I order through the app and pick up so I don’t have to go through the line and do this😂 -but I order two kids meals. Each one comes with a portion of meat and two sides so I do steak with both, cheese and sour cream with one and rice and beans with the other. It ends up costing me the same amount as a bowl maybe a little bit less and you also get a piece of fruit or kids chips which is just enough for me. I take it home and weigh it and make my own bowl. I LOVE chipotle ❤

Many ppl swear by ppl, i respect that after all to each their own, to me however i always see more progress when i train antagonists. I dont like to have to do triceps after my chest and shoulders... neither biceps or rear deltoids after my back and so on.. i still do have my purely leg day but i train arms and shoulders on the same day, legs have their own and i really like to train chest and back together. Yea i know its sort of bro split ,but that way i give my 100% to each muscle and my previous exercise does not limiting my next one. I hate when i fry my chest and my triceps are sort of fatigued but i have to do them and my shoulders. I know that ppl say it does not matter and ill have to do less for finish them off ,but i just dont like it. I love i do 100% effort chest movement and then go and do the same brutal effort for back movement and then again chest one without one fatigue the other.Same goes for biceps and triceps on arms day, full effort to both and the shoulder. At the beginning its hard cause of the overall body fatigue, but ones i got used to train like this i dont want to do synergists anymore😂 I guess to each their own ,but i love it and love all 3 days to finish my whole body, rest 1 day and repeat, sometimes 2 days if i feel like it. With this split my body see both hypertrophy and str progress and i love it so much.

[@ikeacha4153]

I once bought a 32 oz bottle of Propel water. It said "0 cals per serving", but then it said "5 cals per bottle." That was the day I discovered what Adam was talking about; an ordinary bottle of Propel probably has 2 or 3 calories, and the FDA just lets them get away with it.

Love the lady with the intuitive eating question. I've been tracking for a looooong time now whether I am working out or not and have been really seriously tracking within the last few months, hoping to get to the point of intuitive eating. I've gotten to the point where my wife bought me a portable scale to take around with us when we go out to eat. Had to return it because it was really small and seemed like something someone would use to measure out drugs as it would not measure anything over 5 ounces lol. Made us laugh but I think I hope to ween off of the tracking.

TicTacs are also described as 'sugar-free' because one TicTac is one serving, and anything under a certain amount of sugar per serving can be labelled sugar-free. This is WAY more harmful than the caloric aspect, because a young diabetic, who doesn't know better, could put themselves at literal risk of death, thinking that they're fine to eat.
