I had a weight training class in college and there was this jacked dude that I buddied with. He was a personal trainer and I remember him saying once "I have to have a good physique because it's the best advertisement for what I know and can achieve" that always struck me as very sound logic. I don't know how Tom Brady, a guy that's been at the pinnacle of the sports world for so long, can look at this trainer and think "Yeah, that's the guy I need to be getting advice from". The trainer has the physique of somebody that's been doing only banded exercises his whole life.

Often trainers will not have comp-ready physiques but there is atleast SOME muscle on their bodies like biceps and traps and shit, stuff that comes from training for a long time, this dude seems like he's never touched a fkin weight in his life!

It is what sells TB 12, people would rather have a gimmick that makes all their problems go away without putting in the work. It’s a certainty Tom has not been training with this guy, possible even that he never has.

You need to know how these advertisements work. There's a good chance these athletes or celebrities never even MEET the trainer doing the talking. It's often a matter of the trainer/company paying for the rights to use the celebrity's name, and that's it.

[@Jestokost]

The editing on this was hysterical. For my sanity, I’m choosing to believe that these aren’t *really* the celebrity workouts, they’re what you get when the trainer (poorly) tries to adapt whatever they actually do with their clients into something a housewife could do with minimal equipment.

Brady was to football what Federer was to tennis basically. That and he had very few injuries (luck based but also somewhat genetics, though he went on record saying he practiced falling and thought keeping healthy was his number one goal trainingwise). He was playing in very good, very well coached teams his entire career. That plus he was married to a woman significantly outearning him which allowed him to negociate very team friendly contracts in order to play around the salary cap. Combination of factors really.

[@stephenk3499]

He was the most knowledgeable player on the field and could throw pretty much any pass he needed to. He was also the fastest QB at throwing the ball after the snap, the ball would already be in the air before anyone could get close to tackling him. He also had an insane competitive mindset.

There may be some benefit in his style of training for injury prevention, but i tend to suspect he's just been lucky, has good genetics for staying healthy, and has benefited from rules designed to keep QBs healthy. Brady wouldn't have been any better if he were stronger or more explosive, because his style of playing the position doesn't require those things

Dr RP….you had me at ‘banded warm up’ 😂 I’m signing up to your app based on many things, but mainly this video. Nose over toes bros 🤣

[@brglmns]

Dr Mike can you please do a critique of Patrick Mahomes' workout routine in the Netflix Quarterback series?

[@Aiden-tb1qv]

I read most of Tom Brady’s book, I believe it’s called TB12 Method (which I’m sure he wrote himself) while in a public library…yes I know, sad… but he writes about not using weights because they may damage joints and muscles…..and he writes he only uses bands because it “helps muscles stay elastic/supple” or some other assorted nonsense. Edit: got to the end of the video…it was pliability, not elasticity which is obviously much better

[@hardcorehouse]

I believe the bands are better for joints; Brady’s an example. I use and believe they’re effective in exercise applications as well. As with anything, it’s how they’re used. Obviously with greater resistance.

[@mangalegends]

Hey, public libraries are great!

[@softan]

@@hardcorehouse You do run a lower risk of overextending the joints with bands, that much is true, also dropping a band on your foot wont hurt as much. There's also a lower risk of getting as strong as you would have had you lifted weights instead.

[@Aiden-tb1qv]

@@hardcorehouse oh I totally agree. I work in physical therapy so i use bands frequently, and they can give benefits for rehab and such. I’m not convinced they keep muscles “pliable”, as the TB12 method suggests. Partly because I’m not totally sure what the term “pliable” means when Brady uses it. Bands are great, but I do think it can be more challenging to take a band exercise close to failure on bigger muscles like back.

[@Aiden-tb1qv]

@@softan 100%. There’s negligible injury risk unless you are training a muscle that’s already partly injured. And totally agree about strength as well. It’s challenging to load up bands for sets of 3-6 or whatever strength range is being used without extra equipment.

[@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S.]

The way Dr Mike lights up when he hears about the vibrating pliability roller 🤣

[@notreallyzekai3474]

There is value to this types of training for Brady… it replaces the typical time under tension training that is great for hypertrophy, but bad for rotational fluidity and elasticity. So even though the workout itself is pointless, it takes the place of the type of training that he needs to avoid anyways.

[@paulwhite9242]

There were rumors that this guy helped sour the relationship between Brady and New England. This is the same guy that talks about avoiding strawberries because they're bad inflammation or w/e

[@dinglbarry1275]

Could you imagine Brady showing up to various things with his goofball of a trainer? His teammates are probably like... brady's over there doing his own goofy sh*t again with that goofy trainer. The trainer filibusters during practice. I insist Brady stop this practice immediately as it's counter productive to his core. Can I get a copy of Tom's practice regimen this season so we can see what practices and drills Tom will be participating in. Next think you know he's calling Brady's plays.

[@ninjapirat4703]

I'd love to see Dr. Mike do videos on athletic training and principles, if he doesn't already. Some (to me) welcome change to the great hypertrophy videos! :)

[@redledbetter1]

Of all of the docs workout reviews, this one--i would pay good money to see tom brady and his trainer watch and react to this!!!

[@adamscottv]

Mike's look when dude said "your nose doesn't go over your toes" ... lmfao.

[@SweelFor]

"this exercise is called core rotation" "you don't want to rotate your mid torso"

[@scottieoldman8067]

we’re watching Dr. Mike die of confusion and stress, little by little, with each of these training breakdown videos 😂😂

[@adamkadir3803]

In boxing training they made me do banded push ups for power. Was brutal. Dont think I'd ever recommend it for anything not boxing, but I guess we can add football to the list. Neat.

[@mariaweaver1618]

My office at work is too quiet to watch these videos, I’m about to break blood vessel somewhere trying not to crack up out loud at your review commentary, 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@user-fr7nm4zh5b]

I love the content on this channel, whether I use it or not, it is still applicable in the real world to get real results He is 100% accurate in saying that this is nonsense and I’m glad hes starting to call People out on there bullshit keep it up PS I usually just watch this channel because Dr Mike is funny as hell.

[@DragonballG.]

God I love this series. Mike furiously but comically ripped ‘leading professionals’ to shreds.

[@gavingraber1395]

Dr. Mike is gradually losing his patience’s fast and faster with these coaches lol. Best follow on KZbin 😂

[@mrsmuuve]

I look forward to these all week long

[@LadySwan333]

When the guy explaining the workouts doesn't even look like he works out three days a week at the minimum. I'd love to see some of these trainers workout one day with you! 😂 That would be freaking amazing and tons of laughs and probably tears in the fetal position for these so called trainers.

[@pauassie]

My first thought exactly. The guy doesn't look like he's in optimal shape for personal trainer yet alone celeb trainer. But this makes me wonder whether Tom Brady is a fool for picking this guy as his trainer or this is pure strategy to steer people from knowing his secret workout

[@LadySwan333]

@@pauassie Good point. I also wonder if he's contracted to only a select few trainers he's allowed to work with 🤔 you never know.

[@AJHart-eg1ys]

I would only argue one point, which is locking the knees when doing the triceps extension. Do what works best for you, but I keep them slightly bent on most things so that they take some of the shock absorption away from the spine. Also, I've never forgotten in the Army when they told us to always have the knees slightly bent even while at attention or you might pass out.

[@benjamindavis2475]

If your knees are locked you are much less likely to cheat during the set. And with this triceps exercise there is no shock to absorb

[@AJHart-eg1ys]

@@benjamindavis2475 I was actually expressing two separate thoughts here, but since you brought it up, there is absolutely compression going on if you're talking about the banded triceps extension at around 12:00

[@maxk880]

Bro what shock absorption, you're doing a tricep isolation exercise, not 80%+1RM deadlifts..

[@AJHart-eg1ys]

@@maxk880 The extension is almost directly above the head. And he actually brings up spinal compression earlier in the video. If you can't see why this sort of extension compresses your spine, maybe you need to spend more time learning something instead of trying to come up with the right jargon to create the illusion you know what you're talking about on comments boards.

[@swoleturd4271]

That deceleration lunge might be really good for older folks who start losing the muscles ability to "stop" which leads to falls. Although you could just step off low platforms.

[@honzordr8517]

Dr Mike unlocked why Tom Brady is like a statue in the pocket - training to fatigue

[@robertt9342]

If that were true he’d still be on the first set of some of those exercises.
