Legend says someone proposed substituting the entirety of BUDS for running until Echo got to the point, but the SEAL command turned it down for being too cruel.
The ARMageddon split. The one tip for the leg workout is do a handstand, than start your leg workout. When the leg workout is done, than you return to standing on your legs again.
I listened to Echo & Jocko through headphones for ages before I looked at the screen in my pocket. Echo has this really soft polite voice & tone of speaking, then you look at him and he's this massive bulky man.
Echo Charles kills me. Like everyone else is saying it takes him forever to attempt to get to the point....and then for this one (an area he obviously knows something about) he still fails to give a decent level of details and description. Jocko has a surprisingly high level of patience....Echo would have driven most mortals insane by now (10yrs!).
yeah he really could've answered the question in depth and quickly by just saying what his goals are, then how many days a week he works out and then what he does on each day.
Jocko called it in the beginning when he said he'd be back in 15 minutes lol. I think we need to ask Echo Charles more questions. I want to see how bad this can get.
A super set is 2 movements consecutive and a giant set is 3 or more consecutive. Can be for the same body part or multiple. That’s how I’ve always understood it.
Maybe Echo can correct me, but this is what I got: 3 days of workouts Day 1 4 sets 12 reps shoulder press 3 sets 12 reps lateral raise w/ shrugs 3/4 sets 12 reps bi-cep curls Day 2 4 sets of 12 squats Day 3 bench - dumbel - incline rows pull ups
The way he said it, it sounded pretty unstructured; ie he groups together certain muscle groups and knows that he's going to hit those on the same days, and fluctuates reps based on last session. Sounds like a loosely autoregulated, hypertrophy-focused DUP program, always staying close to or at failure (ie RPE 7 or higher).
"What we know now" is the key. Back in the 1960's the Navy fed us pink salt tablets like M&M's in hot nasty places like Vietnam and the Philippines and threatened to write you up if you didn't take them. Probably why I have high BP today.
@@CoachDoug714 LOL, at 76 I've probably done everything wrong my whole life. If I had known I would live this long I would have taken better care of myself. The culture has a lot to do with it. When I was a kid running was a punishment and today the kids run for fun.
Long story short to summarize for anyone that couldn’t get 9 minutes into the video to get the actual answer: dude wings it on what exercise to do each day and how many reps and sets he does.
As a scientist, let me say that science is “self correcting”. All scientists want to improve on previous work and get published, so we are always looking to find errors and new information. Our saying is that we “stand on the shoulders of giants”… in that we have a huge amount of information, data collected, and analyzed by those who came before us. The hard sciences are math, physics, chemistry and the softer sciences are psychology, economics. There is a whole array of sciences in between the hard and the soft. The hard sciences are based on mostly measurable and concrete data. I never mind people being critical of science, but I do get really annoyed when non scientists get dismissive about science in general. It is REALLY EASY to dismiss things you don’t understand… it is WAY HARDER to sit down and read about how science works and try to understand. Conspiracy theories are running absolutely wild these days because so many people are mentally obsessed with wanting to think they know something more than others. If you like airplanes that rarely crash and antibiotics that save lives, remember it is the scientific method that gives our society useful tools like these.
so basically Echo does an upper body/lower body split hitting upper twice and lower once a week? So basically its all about working hard at things that work in a consistent manner?
Science could be different tomorrow, disproved by what? Science. Unless you are trained, you are always best off trusting the science. Of course politics tricked people into believing otherwise, which is akin to believing a non boxer could outbox tyson in his prime.
