this is why Meg Squats and Lean Beef Patty are godsends for so many women

[@foolishlyfoolhardy6004]

I don't know who Meg Squats is, but lean beef patty legit has an ED and body dysmorphia - both of which she's spoken about, and there is no way she's not taking steroid. She is the exact opposite of a godsend. Visible abs, in women, is not a good thing. Justin Ercole is actually helpful, and has a background education in exercise physiology.

[@Rogers1977]

And those two are wayyy stronger than Kim.

My mother is 81 years old, and they go harder than this in the fitness class in the retirement home. The focus there isn't even muscle. it's more about ROM, circulation, and staving off atrophy from age and a largely sedentary lifestyle.

[@Flahtort]

Wanna surprize you, but "staving off atrophy" - is basically "muscle focus".

[@lexxxelskywalker6411]

I legit lived in a retirement village for 3months after having all my toes amputated and having to learn to walk again twice in in the 4months prior that I'd spent in hospital (after multi organ failure) 11years ago. 6months ago I replaced a hip. At each stage , Hospital/Retirement home/Post THR I have gone harder just to warm up for my ESSENTIAL rehab therapy. It's absolutely disgusting to me theyre allowed to do it tbh. Everybody involved in making Kim's vid is on the gaslighting sociopath spectrum and I don't hold much hope for her Sister's video tbh smh

[@lightningbug3189]

​@@FlahtortWhat is "muscle focus"? Muscle atrophy naturally occurs with age, particularly over 60. All you can do is try to slow it down, and putting on muscle is very difficult by then.

[@Пинагод]

A single dance in zumba for middle-aged mothers is more work out than this. They're barely moving any muscles, let alone stimulating those muscles.

I stumbled across your channel about a week ago and have been obsessed. I have learned a lot and been majorly entertained. I put off watching this one because I knew this was going to be the worst of the worst. I used heavier weights in PT after major shoulder surgery.

[@Antares2]

[@sjtdxitditsitdurzirxur5926]

It would be, none of their fragile egos could handle that

[@Antares2]

@TheObserver010 Yes, you can get a LOT stronger than an untrained person without looking "big". Besides, building a bit of size on arms and shoulders will make girls look a lot better as well. Wider shoulders will make the waist look thinner and stuff like that. But regardless, building for size takes so much time. It's not like it's going to sneak up on you and suddenly after you do a few workouts you realize you don't fit through doors anymore.

[@dash4800]

​@TheObserver010yeah it's crazy how obviously stupid things can still be commonly believed in 2023. Like, you think that lifting more than a couple ounces will make you look like she hulk? How can you actually think that?

its not just that, its bc these workouts arent very hard. They get the blood pumping maybe, and you may "feel it" in some spots, but like Mike said, the whole workout is a glorified warmup. It took me a solid year , year and a half to FINALLY get my wife into lifting consistenly bc she only wanted to to kickboxing and cardio bc weights were too hard and scary for her or she "didnt wanna be bulky" and finally i got her to agree to 3 times a week 30-45 minutes one major compound move and 2-3 isolation ones and now shes like wow i feel so much stronger and its like YEA IMAGINE WHERE YOUD BE NOW IF YOU JUST LISTEND A YEAR AGO lol

There was a couple of these arm workouts I was told to try out when my muscles atrophied pretty bad. I also have hyperextension of the joints, which make my shoulders and elbows slide in and out of place so i had to be careful with any actual lifting. It was hard to even lift my arms up for more than a few minutes at a time. It helps if you are an absolute beginner with no muscle mass at all.

[@ElMona]

I mean, I guess they are ok for like people in an retirement facility that just need movement...or for people to do in an office as a break from sitting down..just because they are movements

[@michaelharris8598]

Yeah I mean if you are a stroke victim or have a muscle wasting disease or some disorder that cuts strength to unnaturally low levels, like nerve damage. If you don't have a medical condition this isn't anything. I have carpal and cubital tunnel and have done the physical therapy to treat it, you use 5 pound dumbbells and work your way up and you do exercises designed to make you fight gravity. Now I can use 20 lb dumbbells.

[@jeanniecote5182]

Thank youuuu!! I think that one thing that is forgotten in this video is that it depends where someone starts it's health/fitness Journey!! As someone who has a chronic disease that impact my whole body and energy, I can't do much bc my muscles are too atrophied😢 (bc of ongoing illness for years) SO just movement with my own weight is already a big challenge (and I'm not overweight, BMI of 22) and doing movements that are not against gravity is still exercise for me :/ Anyway I just wish to have a better health and not "muscle growth" so I guess it's okay to do exercise this way😅 not aiming to be a bodybuilder (not that I could with my debilitating health issue)

Dont grind then? I mean, train less, have 2RIR, just make sure you are exersising. It's viable way of training, there is nothing wrong if you just sustaining your physique level and not grinding every time.

As a woman who has trained hard consistently for the last 25 years. I rarely follow ANY womens training programs! They just dont use heavy enough weights or work hard enough (there are a very few women on utube who do (Body by Julia) is an exception). Even now as a personal trainer who looks to see whats new out there..i follow other channels such as Athlene X . Bottom line, most women are afraid of getting big..and i tell them, it’s impossible unless you spend hours everyday in the gym or use steroids your not going to look like a man. You will have a beautiful athletic body.

I second that motion! Kim’s workout definitely looks like a typical Tracy Anderson workout 😂 As women, we get sold so many crappy exercise programs that promise to turn us all into supermodels.

[@user-kpkxgtj]

​@@leighmeyers9870 to be fair, many people's vision of feminine is thin bordering on frail with little (if any) muscle definition, so many women are absolutely terrified of being "bulky / masculine / manly". There's little understanding of how unlikely that is or just how hard they would have to work to put on even 10 pounds of muscle. As a result there's a ready market for this type of fitness product where all that is required is to flail their arms (and maybe their legs) and call it a wrap.

1:32 well, you should have told me before I ate that pizza.

[@kiaras.6493]

I am learning a physiotherapy and I am a ciach for rhythmic gymnastics and acrobatics so I do believe that I have gained some expertise in training. First and foremost, yes those workouts are far from being the most effective and most of the shown exercises weren't targeting the muscles their meant to target according to what thse people. But I have to say that those exercises definitely did at least activate some muscles not the ones they said but the ones that worked against cravity. The second thing I want to add is that there are actually two types of hyperthrophy. Most people know only one though. It is the type where your muscle fiber size up, usually by getting wider but through special training you can also make them longer instead of wider. That is what you also call gaining muscle. Slow excentric and concentric exercises with good form against gravity with body weight or external weight/resistance will get you the best results here. But then there is the second type of hypertrophy which is unfortunately not known by many people allthough it is also very important, especially when you get older, when you have certain conditions such as parkinson or simply because you are an athlete in a gymnastics or dance sport. Contrary to the first type the second type does not widen or lenghten the muscle fibers but instead makes you use more of your fibers in the same muscle which also makes you stronger but without the visible muscle gain. You get this through stability training such as isometric exercises a combination of isometric, excentric and concentric exercises as well as excentric and concentric training on an unstable surface. (You can do the first two on a stable and on an unstable surface.) As said, this will not help you gain muscle weight but it will still strenghten the targetted muscles and also help them to adjust faster. This is especially important for people who are in risk of falling. So in short the isometric squat on the balance pad is actually a great exercise - just not for gaining musclesize. For ideal muscle training you need to do both. You need to get stronger through growing you muscle fibers stronger and through activating more muscle fibers at the same time. Last but not least doing exercises really fast is not doing nothing. Fast exercises are pretty useless if you do them for hypertrophys but you can use the to change you muscle fibers from slow twitch to fast twitch. Tjough it is easier to switch from fast to slow. The regular person does not need this but it can definitely make sense for some athletes. As an example, short track runners need to have as many fast twitch fibers as possible. The fast exercise in the video was still pretty useless bit it doesn't mean that doing exercises fast is always bad. This comment is not meant as a critique. I just wanted to share some more insight for the people who are interested into learning a bit more. These days there are many people outside who thing they are experts in the gym but actually know nothing about what they are doing and people who actually know that they know nothing about exercising believe that what those self made coaches know the best, follow their workouts and get frustrated or injured because they don't get what they where promised. I hope this will change someday. This bodybuilder here does certainly know a lot more than most of the other fit-fluencer out there. Keep it up 👌🏻 You are getting people on the right track. Thank you to those who read my comment. I know it is long but this much is important to understand the basics. I could dive much deeper into the topic but then this will turn into a novel. Have a wonderful day everyone ☀️

I love when I see these types of folks in the gym! They ask me how to get bigger delts like yours. I tell them to actually lift heavy enough waits for 3 set for 15 to 20 reps with low RIR and they grab the 2 lbs arrobic weights.🤦‍♂ P.S. I miss Charlie. Where's is Charlie Dammit?!

[@jlogan2228]

yea or tell them its ok to cheat on the last 2-3 just a little to help push the weights heavier and they are like nah nah i gotta do it with 10 lbs lighter than that so i can have complete tempo and control the whole time. Cool, go ahead and do that and then you will one day realize youre wasiting your time bc reps 1-11 were so easy you barely noticed them and you may have gotten 2-3 actual challenging reps out of that whole set.

[@joewilliams8658]

@@jlogan2228 I don't think someone who trains to technical failure is wasting their time. They just have different priorities. Training to failure (i.e. mechanical failure) may increase recovery times and injury risk. Training to near failure (i.e. technical failure) is still a good stimulus for adaptation and may allow more volume to be moved over a whole workout plus better form for more reps will likely recruit more motor units than fewer heavier reps with degrading form. Imo newer lifters should be 100% focused on form and nailing that down so they avoid injury later on and that means doing lots of strict reps.

[@Flahtort]

Man, dont want to say you wrong, but of lateral raises you dont really need big weights. I'm trained man and currently i'm using just 3kg for that exersice. So maybe it's ok weight for them?

[@Flahtort]

@@jlogan2228 , i also disagree with you. If persons form on point and he is training to the failure, what's the reason to cheat even? Help push the weights heavier? For what? What doest it even mean? To being able to use heavier weights? If tou want, just grab one and have the good form with less reps to the failure again. There is no difference for me. Or you mean load muscle after failure? I personally suggest drop-set or myoreps then. If person perform exercise with good form to the technical failure there is definitely no wastage of time.

[@goldenpondrvpark1637]

@@Flahtort Maybe I should of been more specific. Talking about correct weight for an specific individual. I use 15lbs for Ultra Full ROM Lateral Raises. 200lb guy using 3 lb weights with perfect form for 10 reps and not even going RIR of 5, but then the next guy picks the 40 lb weights and can't do 1 correctly is even worse in my opinion.

[@MUST-TRT]

As a trainer originally from the northeast(LI, QUEENS born) who moved to West Los Angeles and established myself there over the course of 14 years, I can say that this caliber of trainer in the video demonstrates the pinnacle of competence amongst LA'S finest "celebrity trainers." Like myself - all have graduate degrees in a related science and hold advanced certs from the big 3(ACSM,NSCA, NASM). They also make Robert Greene proud and immerse themselves deeply in the study of sports endocrinology and functional pharmacology/pharmacokinetics of PEDs for the required 10,000 hours to meet mastery status of a highly relevant and often mandatory topic rampant in their chosen vocational field. 😂🤥🎓📚📜 These folks probably do "train the stars," but at the highest of levels there exists such a thing called a non-disclosure agreement(NDA). Not to be confused with proper legal jargon, in this context - this refers to the process whereby the behind the scenes professionals who are referred out privately and hired to pull the strings are paid to be kept out of the mainstream view. The Designers (of enhancement programs) and signers (of contracts). Short lived, non-existent interactions. The celebrity trainers are puppets. Doctors (MDS)don't know this stuff and it's not taught in medical school. They also have too much to lose and the majority living in or around LA already make enough $$$$$. The truth about Hollywood elite transformations is that the best of the best are nowhere near the spotlights. I have respect for many KZbin creators and certain channels (of course this one is in a league of its own), but the energy put into all the celebrity-related natty or not stuff with celebs just kills me. Maybe because both MPMD (Derek) and coach Greg live in Canada - they haven't ever been made to see for themselves - the truth behind what ties down with respect to the behind the scenes workings of most elite Hollywood transformations. Hard for me to believe though. BIG Mike - Love the channel and appreciate all your work my man!

[@aethylwulfeiii6502]

If you want to go somewhere to find what good working out is, while usually been clean is from the olympians. None of them are focused on pretty boy aesthetics. Principles like periodization, specificity, and progressive overload as well as decent diets without stupid overly complex overpriced Hollywood bs, because most olympians are pretty poor. Anyone can do kipchoges training program (at a slightly slower pace) for literally free.
