Decent interview with a great guest, with respect to Mark he should learn when to speak and when to let his guests speak. Other than that, this was a great episode!
I respectfully disagree. There is a mutual respect there, both of them have a great knowledge of what they do and this is just a normal conversation between equals.
Being 63 now I remember Vince Gironda's advice on eggs. 20 eggs a day was not an exception at the time. Nowadays I never eat less than 10 plus the beef and....yes, the liver tablets. That is about 40 years since I started. Never had a problem with cholesterol.
Yeah, blame the government for the housing crisis. Ignore the banks lobbying for more and more mortgages to put into cds. Yeah. Right. It is never a deregulated apitalist greed problem, always a government problem. Got it.
@Da Book I continue to wonder... If the Engineers from Prometheus experience Amenorrhea. If the Engineers from Prometheus burn their Uvulas. If the Engineers from Prometheus get fucked over by UPS. If the Engineers from Prometheus eat ruminants. If the Engineers from Prometheus piss in a garbage can so they don't have to get out of bed in the middle of the night. Food for thought.
Starting Strength does work. Tbe only time it doesn't is when you modify it and get off track. Efferding is a good role model as well as trainer. Great interview!!
Yes it works it's generally made to last 2-3 months max for most people.What happens is people assume they can use it much longer and then get angry when the results stop .
Worked at UPS for over a decade, I'd be shocked to see a package without a indentation or an actual footprint right on the box where it's marked, fragile.
I've read the initial Starting Strength book, and I found it very helpful. I also have learned from watching Mark Rippetoe's video tutorials on RU-vid. Frankly, the early comments he made in this video about "why," "what" and "y" went over my head, but I do know that when a native Texan mentions "the stars," he is, of course, referring to..the stairs.
Rip, one comment as a person in the medical field on the passive rom devices. About 50 percent of people who get a knee wont even get out of the hospital bed to take a shit. "Encouragement" to do rom exercises would be pissing in the wind. Someone like yourself who is willing to push through pain or discomfort in order to ensure a speedy or complete recovery is very much the exception to the rule. And I'm basing that on my experience with I would say around 3000 different surgery pts of all different types
I feel Mark Rippetoe on this one, I've had 3 kidney stones in my life, easily the worst pain short of appendicitis that I've ever experienced, so I avoid high-oxolate foods like spinach like the plague.
The Japanese walking study about steps was interesting. so it makes me wonder would I be better off doing 30 minutes of running 3 times a week at a medium intensity or do a hard effort 5 minute run 3 times a week? Wonder if the hard running would be enough stress or if you would need repeated bouts of it.
If you had never seen Stan but just listened to his great voice and then one day you met him in person. Your mind would have to readjust to what you expected him to look like and what he actually does. The gentle Rhino :)
I drank two gallons of skim milk mixed with Perfect 3000 weight gainer a day for twelve straight years. I took in 6500 calories a day. Everyone asked me how in the world did I do it. But, I never had any issues.
Some "hippie" must have been splashed on Mark from that texas blue wave. The amount of hydrogenation in regular peanut butter is negligible. Regular peanut butter won't kill you. It takes a processed nut (or legume) for me to disagree with RIP.
Stan you are very knowledgeable, intelligent, and experienced, thank you for revealing to me in this episode that you are also a food addict I will try to focus your words through that lens from now on. Cole Robinson will help you.
I love Stan message .And in going to buy his book, but what I wonder if, this diet that he talking g about will this diet be different for people who never used steroids...With all do respect, Stan said he used steroids to compete...So how do we know if this diet is going to act the way it did for Stan, and the people he trained...And I'm asking this with all do respect..Im a big fan of Stan and his message..
Coming from someone who does ultras, we know it is not really that healthy. Having the ability to do that amount of work is one thing. But routinely expressing it sets you back huge every time. Have a 100k next month and will be a total mess for a week.
With respect, there’s a difference between someone who doesn’t know when to shut up and someone who enjoys speaking with someone. With energy and enjoyment. It’s a guy who enjoys talking lifting and diet with an elite lifter. That’s all. I’ll just bet he doesn’t go on and on about every day things. I know it’s an old comment. Not trying to insult or disrespect. But I saw something different. Mark Rippetoe gives more than he takes from the world. I cannot ask for more.
I was a high school and college wrestler. High school coach forced me to diet from solid 175 football weight to 145; I went from undefeated state champion, winning by pins over virtually all opponents during the season, to a no-place wash-out by three one-point wins in the next year's tournament ,by competitors who I would have pinned, the year before. It was devastating. Every week I was starving myself, running in the hot shower-room and everywhere else in a plastic sweat-suit, with layers of sweats on top of that, same with practice, and lifting weights.....I would put my finger down my throat, a lot, during the week, after consuming food. Catching the flu, suffering that for two weeks at the beginning of the season is what got me down, finally to that target weight, that I could achieve weekly if I practiced the above practices. Forcing athletes to lose weight in their growing years ( I was 16-17 years) is totally criminal. It turned a wonderful sport, that I loved, and was positively obsessed ( for a formerly, unfocused, troubled kid) , into a nightmare that had reverberating damage in my life for years after. Somehow I got into college, but the damage was done, and I had not the mental fortitude to overcome the wall of failure that I had built up in my pyche; dropping fantasies of NCAA Olympic gold medal pursuit. My buddy from a competitor school went to Annapolis Naval Academy, wrestled with great success and eventually won a bronze medal in the 1976 Olympics. His great coach never made his wrestlers lose weight; he believed in bulking them up with extremely efficient hard wrestling workouts, including short sprints and targeted lifting of weights and gymnastics. My friend became extremely strong through-out his last year; just dominating his opponents; I had similar success but the following year, grew weaker, mentally and phsically, and the decline of the winner mindset, is what I believed so damaging, even more than the phsical. I went from a dominating champion to a pathetic and chronic loser. Parents, never ever allow this happen to your child. The coach does not always know best; my parents considered my complaints as part of a return to my former youthful rebellion against authority. Wow, this was cathartic!
As far as "supplements" in general, the first thing to decide is if they are needed, they are not in place or SUBSTITUTE for food, and many and most cases, THE FOOD YOU EAT IS PLENTY AND NO NEED FOR SUPPLEMENTS, even those guys and gals who think they train hard do not need them, just eat plenty of the right foods. As explained here and other good sources of information the "supplements" are not needed, the best supplement I have found other than food itself is SLEEP and rest, if you're too beat up to train TAKE AN EXTRA DAY OFF, sleep a few more hours; no amount of supplements will accelerate the recovery in any SIGNIFICANT way. Supplements do not give you a benefit OVER regular good food, and definitely ARE NOT BETTER than food, as Efferdin says here. It's not the industry to blame it is the trainers of most gyms!! I am sick of my gym's "trainer" who seems more concerned about selling them "supplements" than learning a damn thing about recovery or anything else, he will spend the whole hour or two I spend in the gym on Whatapp texting, even as the kids or members are doing all signs wrong technique-wise, but as soon as they finish he'll tell them if they want a shake to help them recover --- from what!! from the stupid curls or triceps pulldowns you asked them to do?? And he is super protective or jealous if they ever come to me to ask anything, he tells them "It's no good to add too much weight on the bar" and many other stupidities like that.
I kind of agree but when you’re strength training and you wanna hit protein intake which is one gram per body weight that is a bit hard even eating well at least for me it is. I’ll eat 4 eggs an orange and a glass of milk in morning, 6 oz chicken breast serving of rice and green beans w glass of milk for lunch, 6 oz of another meat (beef, chicken, pork, or steak) a clean carb rice or potato and green veggies and again a glass of milk. That’s 128 grams of protein maybe round it up to 135 grams cause different meats at 6 oz fluctuate 40-45 grams of protein. I’m 185-190 I still need more protein. Add a bowl of Greek yogurt for desert another 18 grams of protein Im still short on protein. Throw a protein powder into one glass of milk I’m close to my body weight in grams. If you can really put down food I guess it wouldn’t be, but eating what I described above doesn’t leave me hungry and I’m full after meals, and usually eat again because I gotta get it in. A serving of meat is 3 oz so I’m eating two servings of meat for lunch and dinner. Eggs a serving is one but anyone who’s gonna eat eggs is gonna have two so in essence I double my eggs as well. I have a hard time eating much more than that. two scoops a day of protein powder in the milk puts me at my bodyweight in grams of protein, and I can hit my marks.
I’m very new to the NLP program. I’m having a problem wrapping my head around a caloric intake/deficit. I’ve lost over a hundred pounds on my own, but I’m new to novice linear progression. Will fat loss/body comp change continue with a higher caloric intake since I am doing the NLP program?
J W recomposition occurs at caloric maintenance if you are a beginner pr intermediate lifter. If you are still significantly overweight you should Continue with a caloric deficit.
I finally figured out why I don't really care for Stan. He has no sense of humour! Rip kept throwing easy ones constantly for him to knock out, and this guy is cold as a fish
At 53:48 there's a discussion about fructose and whether or not it triggers insulin release. It does not. The pancreas detects glucose, not fructose. But fructose is processed through the liver and gives you a lot of symptoms of alcoholic fatty liver disease. Obviously, depends on how much and how often.
Keto worked great for my energy after 6 weeks of strict keto. My performance suffered greatly for that time period but now i can train harder than when I was on carbs.
