Eric Berg's original video: [ • How to Grow Your Muscl... ]( • How to Grow Your Muscl... )
COMMENT ON DR. BERG'S CHANNEL (RESPECTFULLY) AND ASK HIM TO DEBATE ME
In this week's What the Fitness, we discuss a recent video from Dr. Eric Berg, a chiropractor who has never met a topic that he wasn't ready to give his uninformed opinion on. In this video he talks about 'How to Grow Your Muscles.' In it he makes various claims, the vast majority of which are unsupported by data. In the video I cite various references to debunk his claims that you can review below:

To built muscles you don't need to eat too much. You need testosterone and growth hormone which you can achieve through fasting and when your insulin resistance problem will be sloved more and more protein will go into muscles. Choose the right meal when you are not fasting and exercise after the meal especially HIIT.

Anyone can train like Dorian, because a single working set to failure in an 8-12 rep range can scale up or down to any fitness level. My trainer, who just got his IFBB pro card at age 72, splits his routine almost exactly like Dorian does. I have a very thin build, and my 2-way split routine takes all of two hours a week. I see High Intensity Training as really the ideal method for average everyday people to get in shape. Work out every muscle, and when you can do a solid 12 reps two weeks in a row, go up in weight.

@the_notorious_bas 3 года назад

@@alex_stanley I wasn't critiquing Dorian's training style, but you can't expect serious progression while being on a keto diet, eating only twice a day.

@siddhantkumarjena8911 3 года назад

Gluconeogenesis is very tasking process for body.(1.6g of free amino acids to 1g glucose). It only happens under very restrictive carbs and fats amount. But we should also consider lean muscle tissue loss. Volume vs intensity will always be a great debate among bodybuilders, but I find progressive overload in working sets is what build muscle( it's supported by a lot of studies) Recovery argument is pure BS. According to sports physiology recovery is the amount of time your body takes to reach pr again. You will easily recover if u can lift 80% of 1 rm weight again after a day or 2.(taking into consideration beginner and intermediate).

@mikafoxx2717 6 месяцев назад

Progressive overload is the result of muscle growth, not a requirement for it. Sure, if you let it get way too easy and don't put any more force output you'll stagnate.

@mjpucher 3 года назад

I do not think you debunked anything. Dr. Berg is talking about average people trying to add some muscle and you talk about weight lifters. He focuses on a healthy life style and you focus on body building. Different goals and thus different means. I am both on low carb and intermittent fasting and I have good muscle growth even at my age of 67. Dr. Berg did say in other videos that protein does not damage kidneys. He said the protein breakdown puts a strain on liver and kidneys and that is most likely true. Great you did a PhD on this subject but that does not mean that you alone are the wise guy. There are a lot of studies that are rubbish as you have pointed out in other videos when it does not fit your point of view. So there are things you might be wrong about. I am sure that not everything Dr. Berg says is a 100% proven by studies but the same applies to you. You two have obviously different audiences. I happen to be interested in both and find good info on both channels. I think it would be better to be more respectful of other opinions. You take his view into your context and make it sound wrong citing your authority. You can do better.

@Trevor_Green 3 года назад

Agreed. Sort of came off like a pompous dick I thought. I really don't think Berg should be talking about mass growth though. Keto and fasting don't seem to mix when going for mass bulk.

@hobosportgaming9406 3 года назад

If someone like Dorian Yates or Jay Cutler can with a very different strategy for inducing hypertrophy compared to a Phil Heath or Ronnie Coleman get to a comparable level of muscle growth(stage result, not day to day), what ends up being the equalizing factor? Volume could be the answer, but as Layne points out the data indicates that the same volume will be far more optimal over 2 - 3 sessions due multiple synthesis windows (combined with the maximum protein dose response I assume). That would make Dorian's far less optimal since he is focusing on secondary muscle growth mechanisms. How does he catch up? Do we just need more data? Is there just a relatively flat maximum that someone can reach with both methods?

I followed Dr. berg for years, and honestly what his diet boils down to is high veggies, a moderate amounts of protein, and in general an extremely restrictive way of life, which generated in me an apprehension to most foods and sort of an eating disorder. Since I crashed so many times trying to diet the way he directs people to, I decided to study nutrition and get my facts straight. After I began understanding basic nutrition science (and science itself), I began noticing how wrong Berg was, like awfully and sometimes dangerously wrong. I began finding other sources, such as Byolane, Dr. Huberman, even Coach Greg, and I continued on on a path to true DATA. I am now finally able to have a proper diet and I am well on my way to fitness, better than ever in my life. It's good to see this channel calling a spade a spade. But unfortunately I know a lot of people may not have the sufficient understanding in science to separate truth from lies.

Great video. Not sure Berg should be speaking on muscle growth as ketosis is not well know to be effective in mass. Intermittent fasting and ketosis do both have a growing body of peer reviewed studies backing them for weight loss and hormone control - so great for those that are not looking to mass up or get beach big. One problem I have is your reference to him only being a chiropractor and you having a PhD. These are both appeals to authority fallacies. You do not need any specific education or accreditation to be highly knowledgeable in a subject, albeit its easier to trust someone (like yourself) with relative accreditation. There are plenty of idiots with higher education and plenty of extremely relevant knowledgeable people that have no formal education. Most people turn off their brains when they hear fasting and ketosis as it goes against traditional well researched methodologies. Me, I've tried it and it's quite surprising how much energy you have, how well you sleep, and how clear your thinking is after about a week. Not sold on these being the healthiest way to live, but there is definitely something valuable there at the least. Keep up the great videos bud

@williamlanger9229 3 года назад

You can become far more knowledgable about a subject if you spend nearly 12 hours a day for nearly a decade on a particular subject. That is what getting a phd is. A hobbyist can nearly never become as knowledgable. They would have been doing some sort of work or some sort of other schooling during that time when that other person was getting that knowledge. They simply don’t have the time to become as knowledgable. This also applies to people who work full-time in a particular field (as in nutrition). A hobbyist who has to spend eight hours a day working some other job is never going to have the same amount of experience with a particular subject as somebody who works eight hours + a day doing that job.

@ScienceUnbiased 3 года назад

@19:25 Equating protein using a keto vs. a non-keto intervention is designing a study to make keto look bad in terms of muscle growth. It's generally accepted that if carbs are low enough to activate ketogenesis you'd need to increase protein intake on keto to provide "sacrificial protein" for gluconeogenesis to cover glucose requirements PLUS the amount of protein needed to optimize hypertrophy. (though it's still somewhat debated as to how much extra protein is needed to add for GNG) I find it odd that you're so big on protein being equated, but mention a protein cap @6:35 implying that any additional protein will not increase anabolism. Wouldn't be too hard to design a study where the non-keto group received protein cap per meal & 1-3 keto groups received cap + additional percentages per meal, number of meals, exercise reps & sets equated. Keto might still be inferior for muscle growth but it'd be nice if someone tested it in earnest. The weight training method Berg mentioned seems somewhat similar to the work of Arthur Jones & almost identical to the Cybergenics program that saw it's hay day back in the 1980's.

Plus his speaking to the intermittent fasting community and this might be there guidelines to their diet choices

@antoniomaccagnan7200 3 года назад

Although I agree that Dr. Berg does not come across as a reliable source of information, I object to the form of your argument. You do not provide any documented or verifiable sources for your statements and just because you say something he said is wrong doesn't necessarily make it so. Also, even if people like Dr. Berg or Thomas Delauer do not rate high in my opinion, at least they do not thrash other people on their channels and just provide content, whether objectionable or not.

Layne thank you for your videos about nutrition and working out. I went keto for 5 years because my hiatal hernia causing acid reflux. Keto helped that for sure. Here is the facts about my journey. I’m 63 years old. Workout with weight 5 days week. Former bball player in college and transitioned to running 25 years ago. Running competitively. I couldn’t keep doing keto because I couldn’t do the required speed work. Recently got my testosterone checked and it was 75!!!!!! Extremely low. Started implementing about 250 grams of carbs, lower my fats and increaesed protein and now my sleep mood is better and my test is up to 450. Thanks for all your advice and SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE. I OWE A LOT TO YOU

@jellewierda3828 3 года назад

Why are all you fitness youtubers all say something different? Volume, intensity, consistency, surplus, deficit. The fact that there are so many video tells me that no one actually know how muscle is built. All we know is that moving weight thru space gives us some kind of stimulus. Science, nice we use it to back up our findings but that is not how science is intended. So stop confusing us until we really know how it works. Thanks.

@williamlanger9229 3 года назад

"The fact that there are so many video tells me that no one actually know how muscle is built." That is not the correct conclusion to take from that fact. I say this with all due respect by the way. I think the more accurate take-away would be that certain details are unknown and are the subject of debate, while other components of muscle growth, i.e. moving weight through space, is agreed upon by essentially everybody. I think that, once we have established a consensus on the more generalized components of a concept, i.e. muscle building, we should be listening to the consensus of the experts on a particular subject in order to determine the optimal approach. Those experts would include exercise scientists, etc. If what Dr Berg is saying lines up with the consensus of the experts on muscle hypertrophy, then do it up. If it doesn't then I wouldn't get on it.

Dr berg has a video titled “what’s worse potatoes or rice”. Funny thing is it was in response to someone asking him “which is better” The dude can’t see beyond his keto bias

Thx for doing this. Only learned about your channel a week ago, but like Gil Carvolho at Nutrition Made Simple, I feel like both of you understand the science, and don’t mind fact checking others like Eric Berg. There is so much more people need to do on this guy. He’s a chiropractor that was reluctant to let others know that he was a DOC, not a MD. He’s a Scientologist that donates heavily to it according to his son. To learn more about Eric Berg, type in his name over at rational wiki. Too much to list here.

@Solidfreeman01 3 года назад

Dorian Yates´ warm up sets are actually often times really work sets for a lot of people out there. So saying "you do just one set with a ton of intensity and weight" can lead to a lot of people, who are listening to him tearing their muscles and going to snap city.

@N1120A 3 года назад

The level of intensity and ultimate TUT Dorian employed with his emphasis on negatives, forced and the like is something even other pros only dream of achieving

@Solidfreeman01 3 года назад

@@N1120A So how can TUT can have a "level" or be "ultimate"? Either it is optimal, or too short or too long. You are using strong words, but there is nothing behind them.

As a female, mom, 52-year-old woman, I must say I use pink ankle weights when I do adagio en l’air in ballet… so regarding the ‘pink weights’ comment re Dr Berg, LOVED it. My muscles & regimen are harder than his. Scientologists never win the ‘sniff test.’

@OfficialBeeswax 6 месяцев назад

If we're doing anecdote: I've been lifting for 2 years on keto, and made very little gains in that time. I went off keto a few months ago and went for a more balanced diet. I feel like I'm only now getting my noob gains, because I have exploded in both muscle size and strenght since then.

@lsporter88 8 месяцев назад

First off, agreed. Second, you might be kind of hard on the guy. He's not totally wrong, but of course he doesn't have your specialized knowledge (and probably hasn't spent a huge amount of time lifting). He's just trying to help, but I take your point. My experience in the Gym reflects what you're saying. I would only add that HGH does help you grow muscle, just INDIRECTLY. HGH indeed helps you increase connective tissue. It also helps you retain water (in the right way, like Creatine). You need both of those for your body to allow itself to put on muscle. I would also argue that HGH helps to increase the efficiency of the body's other systems and mechanisms (including the production of hormones like Testosterone, again more indirectly), which you need to put on muscle efficiently. I also totally agree, you're not going to put on muscle without a high enough amount of mechanical stress (load). And you don't want too much fatigue or muscle damage for continual, efficient and or fast muscle gains. Please don't debate Dr. Berg.😂 Great F*cking video.

@77dris 3 года назад

I just watched Dr Rhonda Patrick on Joe Rogan and she talked to Satchin Panda who has studies about time restricted feeding that showed muscle gain when the eating window was less than 12 hours - with the most benefits with a 9 hour eating window. Longer than 12 hours with all things being equal muscle gain was greatly diminished (or lost if no lifting was done)

bruuh.. I am at war with a lawyer who poses as a pt and nutrition specialist on tik tok. He has taken over Latvian tiktok and pushes sooo much bs, calling people who eat breakfast idiots and saying to new moms to stop sleeping and eating that much so on. Selling TRT and other PEDs and ozempic as part of his fitness program. Interpreting blood tests... Going to turn to you a lot for advice..... And to be honest i am scared shitless even tho i i am confident about information i provide to my followers, cause it comes mostly from you and the coaching programs i have studied. Anyway.

He’s not a doctor…he’s not an MD or PHD…he’s a doctor of chiropractic just like physical therapists are doctors of physical therapy…if you get sick still call a doctor, a real one. Quackropractors get away with this way too much. Also the way he presents himself..he should never be left alone with children he has a super creepy aura about him.

Watching these takedowns of Dr Berg, I think, is teaching me abt how tonality can represent bullshit. The fluctuation of his tone in-conjunction with the way he slows certain words down speaks of animation that's synonymous with bullshit and pretension, rather than emphasizing key points for authenticity's sake.

@stargazerbird 3 года назад

Yes, they advise pretty much what Berg was saying re reps to failure and recovery. I do their programme - full body twice a week, sets to failure within 8 -10 reps. Works for me so far. Not looking to get big just keep my muscle mass. My recovery time is probably longer as an older female. Besides, I don’t have time to go to the gym four times a week.

@lientforjuve8118 2 года назад

Well I know in person a couple bodybuilder who use Intermittent fasting on their regiment. One of them is Ade Rai. You could search him on youtube. He made ton of Intermittent fasting video. He over 50 years old, he have a body better than you, he Won Muscle Mania, he Won Mr Asean, he won every natural body builder competition, that regulated as Streroid-Free. What he does is IF for 12-14 hours. He not doing keto, but not doing high carb either. He basically applying in between LCHFHP diet or Slow Carb diet. Most of the Protein he got is from real food, he only using protein supplement when he consume less meat/egg. I think you are just another Gym dude who opposed keto and Intermittent fasting. Most of holistic doctor or nutritionist will side with Dr Berg. Most of gym influencer will side with your though. Its inevitable. I get the point when IF and keto diet fix most people problem, Gym Influencer are out of job. But many Gym Influencer actually embrace this new concept (insulin focus diet). Even adding to their regiment, and have success with that. Btw you should already know that around 90% of gym newbie are gave up after 3 month without any result. I know any gym worker will try to hide that fact, Including myself. 3 Years ago I work as part time PT, we try to hide that fact too. Right now in my Gym (Mr Ade Rai gym), we always told our client that most of important things to get in shape is Food. And we always recommend Keto + Intermittent fasting. It have way higher success rate compared to old school way. (Cutting calorie + Workout) Btw effective protein amount for maximum protein synthesis are backed up with research. They have a cap. Also IF/keto diet spike HGH up to 6x times more than weight lifting also backed up with research. Of course high level of HGH doesn't guarantee you to build more muscle, but its not a BS.

@patrickokeeffe4787 Год назад

...of course Dr. Berg didn't do his homework and give the flip side of training agressively like Dorian. Not alone did he build massive muscle, Dr. Berg forgets to tell you that he also wrecked his body as a result. He cant press anymore than a 5 year old child as his shoulders are shot. Also, his old torn bicep and tricep are still giving him trouble and last I heard, he was off to Columbia for stem cell treatment on a banjaxed hip too. Why would anyone follow an exercise regime like that? Sure, it made him a nice living and he is set up for life.....but its also a life of constant physical pain. I'll settle for "just getting by" with no physical pain anyday of the week.

@ice1311 11 месяцев назад

Its comical when someone looking like Eric Berg, who propably never been in the gym, has to say something about building muscle. Honestly it seems like he watched some Dorian Yates interview video and decided to shoot this right after that, mixing in his Keto bullshit.
