"No conspiratory denial of science" - I wonder is it conspiratorial denial of science to recall how science was wrong and wonder if it is likely a cause of a lot of modern health issues and the distrust in general from the general public regarding such topics?

That along with this apparent hesitancy to acknowledge it would only fuel the growing distrust I would imagine.

On the subject of hydration... Are you thirsty? I love it. Simple truth. The simpler, the better.

[@KevinJDildonik]

Some people like me might have grown up on well water, or with a mom who never quite cleans the glasses. Or both. Or bad tasting hard water. Hard water is hard on my kidneys too so I can get very dehydrated. My life changed when I learned that with most municipal sources I either have to have a filter pitcher or a fridge filter to get the taste and composition where my body can tolerate it, then carry a water bottle religiously. The only exception was one single city I lived in had good soft water, to the point people visiting my house would bring gallon jugs to stock up. Then it was easy. Or personally, LMNT. I get charlie horses anyway so balanced electrolytes keep me healthy in multiple ways. A dash of LMNT helps with bad tasting water. (Literally one reason why Gatorade tastes the way it does - so players can't taste a bad water pipe).

[@VeteranVandal]

The simpler the better. Sleep. Diet. Water. Walk and/or Gym. That's the order from most important to least important. You can solve each problem piecemeal, but you need those to lose, gain or maintain weight. It doesn't matter your goal, you always have to sleep enough, drink enough water, have an adequate diet. After that the exercise comes. You might have to review your water intake and diet each month, but this just works regardless of what you want to do. Not saying the diet and gym are easy steps, because they aren't, but they are progressively easier.

I'm wrapping up a 40lb weight loss and my diet is very similar to this. It's very easy to stick to, especially if you worry less about obsessing over macros and just focus on eating healthy foods and staying full. Almost every health metric has improved (body composition, mood, energy, blood pressure, etc.). Strength has increased on all isolation movements, held steady for deadlift, and decreased slightly (~5%) for squat and bench, significantly (~10-15%) for overhead press.

[@MichaelShammasSSC]

@@mnakash77 One long diet. I did 3 weeks in a steep deficit, one week at maintenance, repeated 4 total times.

Since my “set point” is on the lighter side, it was relatively easy for me to lose weight rapidly.

I converted fists to cups and a finger as 2 tablespoons and I calculated almost 5000 (4956) calories if you pick chicken thighs for protein rice for carbs broccoli for veggies and olive oil for fats. Even using the Reddit grind mode of one fist of carbs per meal it’s 2500-3350 calories. I burn a MAX of 2700 calories per day probably more like 2400. I think grind mode would be better doing 3 meals a day my lowest estimates show 1500-1900 calories.

Hey I would love to see you review Caroline Girvan’s workouts, when I first got into training I lost a bunch of weight following her videos but I’d love to see your critique!!

[@lloydaran]

Is only one "fist-sized" protein source going to be enough for total protein intake? Also that, plus 3-fist sized carbs + 2 of veggies are a LOT of volume, I can't eat that much FOUR times a day honestly. Four is also quite the odd (pun not intended) number, considering how large it is, the fourth meal (especially if placed before bed as suggested) packs quite the punch. What about the classic 3 main meals + 2 snacks?

[@d2ds17]

Pretty sure you're thinking about it the wrong way. Based on the fact that example is the "grind" diet. You're probably only getting 3 meals with a fist of carbs. Mike wouldn't tell you to eat 3 fist fulls of carbs 4 times a day. Occam's razor👍🏼

I may be dumb, but when we say a fist size portion of lean meat... is this a 2d view of the area my fist then like however thick the meat usually is, or like the total volume of my fist.

(6'3", 214lbs) If we do account for total volume then what do i do about the veggies that take up a lot of air, 3 fists of broccoli isnt that much but can be smushed into 1 fist.

pork tenderloin is a great lean protein btw, probably my fav. just chop off medallions until you have as much as you need, salt it, fry it up for a couple minutes on each side in a nonstick pan with some cooking spray. basically the same macros as chicken breast, but more flavor and better texture imo

The things I really like about this are 1) the focus on moderation over extremes and 2) simplicity versus the relative complexity that many diets bring. The outcome is a reasonable approach to eating that is sustainable over a lifetime and resilient to special occasions like holidays, vacations, etc. The mental health aspect of this approach cannot be overstated. Take note that the work still needs to be put in (this isn't "magic" as Dr. Mike likes to say), but I believe this strategy is suitable for the masses - which is kind of the point.

[@Dmobley9901]

I have no idea if this is gonna be relevant to this video, but I just came to say thank you Doctor Mike for teaching me to exercise properly. I HATE it, but thank you nonetheless. As a 5'4 young man in his 20s, who weighs 205lbs and has lived mostly a sedentary lifestyle up to now, I'm simultaneously grateful and hateful that you gave me the idea to slow down my negatives for maximum effect, I have just finished doing squats, and I now (temporarily) have the stability of a 90 year old man with no walker or cane. Again, thank you, and damn you, for your torturously effective advice. I feel terribly wonderful after my first workout in ages, and will (un)fortunately be sticking to many more in the future. Thank you, you absolute psychopath, now if you'll excuse me, I'll be taking my rest liberally before I do all this again, more intensely, while stumbling around like a drunker than usual Captain Jack Sparrow, and trying to not face plant when I go to let my dog out of her cage- Sincerely, a crazy person on the internet. (Genuinely thank you, best I ever felt after a workout, and also the weakest)

[@derrickharter9040]

Dr. Mike, when are you going to make a video on training athletically?

[@KX5Kat]

The key to training to be an athlete is to be specific; first you need to pick a sport to be athletic in. Then you train for it.

[@agcalleko7]

TLDR-there are channels who actively practice/specialize in athletic training. I’d think about programming prep for sprinting and jumping, in addition to weight room. Athleticism training inspiration channels:Noah Lyles (sprinting) , Isaiah Rivera (jumping) , Blaine McConnell (sprinting and lifting) , Tyreek Hill (acceleration, quickness) IMO Dr Mike is pretty clear on his expertise and biases towards :bodybuilding (hypertrophy modalities) , powerlifting/strongman(strength modalities ) , MMA, etc . He collabs with people influential in those spaces and in published exercise science literature (mainly on hypertrophy/strength studies). the RP app is designed he says it all the time “Maximize Hypertrophy” If thats not your specific goal consider supplementing this channel with other channels that have different focuses I disagree with the other post. improving sprint speed (max acceleration) and jumping ability (other things can help too like core, flexibility, lateral movement) will make almost any sport easier than if you had done no training in those areas. You have to prepare your body to be able to withstand and produce near maximal force.

[@derrickharter9040]

@@agcalleko7I appreciate the response, there’s a lot of really great information here. I suppose I may not have been precise with the wording of my original comment. I was more referring to weight training for athletes. In past videos, Dr. Mike has referred to his experience in other areas other than bodybuilding, such as aforementioned topic, but hasn’t made any videos going into great detail. There’s actually some great information that could be applied to athletic weight training in his video on rep cadence, but I am also curious to hear his expertise on ideal rep ranges, intensity, training loads, and if there is an optimal way to train for both athleticism and hypertrophy without sacrificing too much of one for the other.

[@spinewrenched848]

So what are the fist and finger portion sizes for each meal?

[@Classicalliberal85]

Not recommending red meats or eggs when these foods are the most nutrient rich foods is unfortunate

[@Journey_of_Abundance]

Yep Mike can't seem to totally ditch the bro science. That degree mill propaganda is hard to ditch.

[@ryanj357]

Personally what I’ve found has worked for me is measuring serving sizes on the nutrition label. I just eat one serving size per food group each meal. If you’re eating whole foods it makes it so much easier. After a while I’ve just learned how to eyeball things.

[@diablominero]

Assuming your body doesn't fight you, it's probably possible to build a moderate keto diet based on this plan just by choosing a low-sugar fruit instead of grains or high-sugar fruits and raising the healthy fats a bit above what the plan says. So for the people who feel serene on keto and want their fat loss experience to have that same serenity, Dr. Mike's conceptual framework has good flexibility and will let you add in your own goals without too much difficulty.

[@timbaws1346]

Whole eggs and organ meats are 10 times healthier and nutritious than any of the foods you mentioned.

[@devilsadvocate2643]

I lost 1kg per week having a chickpea salad in the office (250g chickpeas + cucmuber+ tomatoes + mozzarella). And in the evening, 500g brocoli, 300g carrots in boiling water, 300g of meat + 250g of mozzarella, some tomatoes and balsamic sauce. That quantity would last me for 2 dinners. I was not doing sports, but I never felt hungry. That diet was a roughly 1000kcal deficit per day. I went from 95kg to 80kg in 5 months. The weeks I haven't lost a kilo were for varying reasons (some birthdays / company trips etc). For the meat, I used packet bio sausages from a local farm. They have slightly more calories than chicken, but at least I was 100% sure of the cooked quantities (500g packaging with 5 sausages). But eating the same thing every day was not a problem. It's also nice not to have to struggle counting calories etc.

[@djpgreek]

this is great. I do have a question...I do intermittent fasting which has been great for me and keeping weight down. I only eat twice a day. How could I build this diet into those? Just follow the 1, 2, 3, 1 and portions twice a day. Similarly, for each meal I really can eat three fist sizes of good carbs/grains / fruits?

[@jasonrios3120]

just eek out the biggest deficit you can on grind days so with two meals a day you can easily be in a 1000-1500 cal deficit and chill days eat more carbs or add a meal

[@zelenisok]

Made a super simplistic vegan diet for myself, lost 30lb so far in the past couple of months. I make a large amount of a food: carb part - usually rice, sometimes boiled potato, pasta, noodles or bread; and protein fiber part - usually TVP, sometimes lentils or canned beans; eat that 3x a day for two or three days, along with some fresh veggies, basically only cabbage, carrots, tomato, cucumbers. (Plus a bit of tomato sauce or ketchup I sometimes put in my TVP rice.) A snack of a bit of nuts or seeds or olives. If I want another snack I eat fruit, basically just apples and oranges. If I want something really sweet I make some whipped cream or sometimes get a tiny chocolate bar. I drink only water, zero sugar sodas, or tea with stevia. A complete multivitamin-multimineral supplement, an omega 3 supplement. And that's it, the entire thing.

[@gyorgygajdos1657]

L carnitine too, it's more important than Omega if off meat.

[@zelenisok]

But L-carnitine isnt an essential nutrient, if a veg(etari)an consumes good amounts of protein, the body will make L-carnitine itself..

[@EdwarkingOFitness]

Started hand portion sizing my food and honestly started seeing pretty good results BUT it can be pretty annoying and sometimes inaccurate(because lets be honest we be lying to ourselves sometimes), so instead I just built the habit of tracking all my food in a scale then writing the data down on my fitness pal. It even gave me the wiggle room to consume junk food here and there( 🔑 95% should be clean macro focused foods ) once I started implementing this PLUS the maintenance periods my physique has made a DRASTIC change, thanks RP ❤
