Just wanna give a big thanks for your honesty. I’ve been a personal trainer for over 25 years and I’ve worked with a lot of guys who had “the” physique in the gym who would straight up lie about their use, thus setting unreal expectations and doing a lot of harm to people who would end up thinking that they just weren’t disciplined enough to see the gains they wanted. So many people have quit training because of the lies around gear. So, yeah, respect to you for telling the truth.

I find it refreshing that you openly discuss your use of gear, the pros and cons of it, and how you got to where you are today. As an almost 50 year old that just got heavily into improving my health and started lifting, it's nice to hear people be open about what works, what doesn't, what should someone use, and what they shouldn't. I am almost 2 years into this journey now, I took myself from 343 down to 218, and then now have gained back about 8-10 lbs of muscle (waist and such still shrinking, but added weight where i actually want it). I went on TRT about a year ago because my levels were below 300, It's been a huge help to me and truly enjoy my time in the gym and changes I've been able to make to my health and future. My wife has gone on the journey with me and has dropped right at 100lbs as well.

Agreed. I've made the suggestion before and I believe they've said its in the pipeline but I don't think its the type of video that will do numbers, sadly. Its a simple hand-wavy "just do maintenance volume" but I think there is a lot of nuance you can talk about. The ROI on hypertrophy training tanks past the intermediate level, arguably going negative when you factor potential time, health, food costs, general attractiveness etc... if you aren't intrinsically into bodybuilding solely for the sake of it.

You've probably been running on low glycogen. When your muscles are given a chance to refuel with glycogen, each gram of sugar combines with another three grams of water. Add to that, cheat meals are salty, so that will draw in even more water. A kg of fat stores 7,700kcals; but if you've been dieting hard for months, some of the excess energy you eat will got to long overdue repairs of other tissues, even more will just get fidgeted away in an increase in NEAT. So my guess, the weight gain you've seen is unlikely to all be fat, it's probably mostly water.

Sorry Mike not be negative , but you need to diet harder, you’re a well known person in the industry and t3/t4 is one of the easiest things to obtain, so I feel like that’s a excuse. You could’ve even used iodine and selenium, tyrosine zinc magnesium and tested your blood to see if that would bring this up, see where your markers are at, come on dude your smarter then this? I personally think your learnings are excuses as to why you didn’t come in shape. Not to be negative but you could have dieted down with less fats in your diet, diet breaks and less gear. So your fatigue management and overall stress is lowered. Look at some of the pros and even amateur athletes who come in shape, they diet hard in their low days, and high days are relative to that. That’s the discipline.

you must be new here, his transformation was basically a steroid cycle taken for a bodybuilding prep. Training like that will not give you more results unless you are advanced, and even then the benefits are very small compared to your average 3-6/week split. He had been training for years before the transformation, the transformation is literally just from steroids while being in a calorie deficit. Don't use steroids

Lifetime natural at 6'2 245 pounds, visible abs (not like a 6pack or anything) and have arms that sit around 19 1/2 inches with a pump, so I'm a relatively big dude. I can say with certainty, after discovering the RP app a year ago, and adopting Dr. Mikes training style, I'm bigger than I've ever been in my life. Its a lot of volume, but that's how you get big naturally. Its very fatiguing as a natural, so you have got to get good sleep, and you have GOT to be eating a lot of food. You cannot follow the volume and intensity that someone like Dr. Mike is doing as a natural and not be fueling your body as much as possible. Make sure you are sleeping 8 hours at least, and make sure you're eating at least 4 meals a day, protein with every single meal. Also, mesocycles can be extremely taxing on the last week or 2, so if you start to feel like its too much, just end the meso and start your deload. No reason to slug through a workout that is supposed to be 0RIR only to leave reps on the table. Just take a break, and start fresh again. I know this because I went through it several times over. It's so easy to be the one who pushes your body passed its limits because of "gains" but that shit really catches up when you aren't on steroids.

Deload when you hit a wall or drop performance.

wait i had NO idea yall were taking thyroid hormone as gear!!! Ive been on Synthroid since birth and god bless my endocrinologists, theyve always kept me on a high-normal dose (meaning, kept my TSH in the low-normal range), thus blessing me with a suberb metabolism. Ive always been open about how this (the medication treating my birth defect lol) is my little secret to maintaining my weight for my whole life but i have always wondered whether it has anything to do with my ability to grow muscle, which comes pretty insanely easy for me. I'd love it if you made a whole video on use of t3/t4 for muscle growth optimization--something i wasn't fully aware of until now!

for those wondering why he looks so different in the before and after pic and couldn't have possibly be 12% bf in the first photo, he does say he "has a cool ability to make it look like" he's a lot fatter than he is. So that's his was of admitting he was sticking his stomach out in that before picture. Obviously he's flexing hard in the after as well. This is a tactic for views, so It's like one of those infomercials for some sort of exercise machines. Would be cool if he could post his genuine before and after pic... but thats youtube for you.

I'm all here for this! Doc doesn't talk about his journey or himself. Yes, he mentions things here and there, but as he said, he tries not too but man it is nice to see him give in and feel his own swagger. You deserve recognition Doc and you deserve to feel good about yourself.

Im so glad i found your channel. I’ll be 50 this year. I was a runner who lifted weights irregularly in my 20s. I found out later in life I have a mild version of Ehlors Danlos syndrome. I just have the loose joints with no internal issues. I weigh 225 and I’m 6 ft tall. I’ve been a carpenter and farmer my entire life but the last 20 years I’ve become more sedentary. I seriously want to get back into the gym and lift seriously lift for usable strength and fat loss. I have two kids…. Where do I even start?!😂 thanks for any advice.

Decided to do my first true cut tracking rather than guessing. Last year was as low as 201 LBs. Earlier this year Bulked to 255. Started legit cut at 242 about 10 weeks ago. Now 218 and leaner than I have ever been and I’ve gained muscle mass somehow in the 2 month cut. Probably time for maintenance for me but I feel good doing 2000-2400 kcal on rest days and 2400-2800 training days.

Front delts, rear delts (and arms for that matter) don’t grow from compound work for guys with long arms. Bench only works chest for us guys. Front raises, rear flyes and triceps extensions are a must.
