Bruh everybody i suggest his teaching too gets a sincere warning lol i let them know he has built more then his body lol his confidence has lats too lol
I like your approach of not being scared of being wrong at some point (because the literature was different at that time) and saying what's changed when it has evolved. This proves you'r a person of good character and second we can trust you'll provide us the best information currently available.
This is probably the best fitness channel on the web -- you guys and Mr Nippard have really inspired my gym motivation after I came back from a gnarly broken shoulder injury, also Dr Mike = too funny
@@shirty2 wrong, feeling hungry is a illusion, do intermittent fasting and you will feel reborn and your muscles work more efficient. Sometimes less is more
Crazy how I’m stronger than I ever was before covid. Totally stopped gym for 3 years. Resumed late last year and seeing so much progress thanks to channels like this, Jeff, Sean. Keep it up.
I watched the nutrition for fat loss series that was made about 2-3 years ago and although most of the things are the same, it's nice to see how Dr. Mike has updated some of his recommendations. For example, that series recommended a protein intake per meal of 0.25g/lb of bodyweight for optimal muscle growth (he never said that's the only amount your body will absorb, just that that's the amount likely to go towards muscle synthesis). Though he did mention if you go above or below by a margin of 10-15, it's not the end of the world, I was surprised to not see that hardcoded number at all in this video and the declaration that the result of min-maxxing in this way are so miniscule, it just doesn't matter for most people. Always appreciate simplicity so thank you for that.
min-maxxing usually has little effect over the short to even medium term. However, if you're in the long game, I believe it has a compounding effect and can make a big difference
There is a time and place for either or both but I also refuse to get into dog vs. cats arguments. What I don't like are the people that only like exotic nut butter (hey, get your mind out of my gutter!) and people who keep birds; they be crazy.
Genuinely curious how tf do people eat 6 meals a day. I barely have time (and money) for 1 meal a day.. I eat twice a day if I want to splurge and have time for it..
For all the money I’ve given to RP, and all the benefit to my life that RP has been, Mike’s opinion on peanut butter makes me reconsider giving them my money.
Any suggestions for some training in a deficit from 4am - 6am during the work week. I currently eat after training, but really struggle towards the end of the day with hunger
Thank you, sir, and your team. I am 52 years old. I have been training for over 30 years. I grew up participating in multiple sports including powerlifting and training with weights accordingly. I did many things incorrectly. Out of ignorance, not lack of effort or intensity. I now am the beneficiary of significant gains due to your knowledge. I look forward to diving deeper.
The “orange man bad” comment had me rolling. I am really sensitive and need to eat right after the workout or my adrenals will tank. I had lyme disease so it’s a struggle to stay out of catabolism. Can’t have dairy so it’s a pea protein with creatine and blueberries followed by a big meal an hour later. If I don’t attend to it, I actually won’t sleep well that night. Sometimes full on insomnia. Not even working out for gains, just trying to shift into anabolism because I am skinny. Finally getting better sleep from daily workouts which don’t extend beyond 30 minutes per a suggestion from MindPumpRadio. Same issue with sleep if workouts go over an hour. Fine line. Seeing amazing results after a few months and I wasn’t looking to get “jacked “. Still skinny but change is happening.
Dr. mike. Wondering if you have any considerations for training and nutrition when it comes to doing shift work (overnights). I currently work at a treatment center, 1045pm-0800am , and wondering if theres any ways to optimize training and nutrition for this schedule outside your typical recommendations. Hope you get a chance to read this!! Thanks so much for the content!!
As long as you stay on the same shift, you just need the same sleep schedule every day. I did it for years. I worked out before work because the later in the morning you go to sleep the harder it is.
One of my newer theories is that if I drink a protein shake in the morning (which has pretty much only protein, no carbs or fats), it gets broken down for energy, vs if I drink it to supplement my normal meal, for example right after my meal, then it's utilized more efficiently as amino acids.
What are your thoughts on day to day variations depending on activity? I get so incredibly fatigued the day after a workout that i cant even do daily tasks. So as a result my TDE/NEET is basically comatose levels. I find it really hard to maintain a healthy bodyfat level with keeping my fats at .3g/lb per day, even on days when i cant move. Tbh .3g is already way more fat than i used to eat even before starting to workout except for when i left home and started eating pure garbage. I usually ate high protein, high carb, low fat and i was able to maintain a good weight and never be hungry. Now im hungry all the time because the fats being so high means I have to cut out the carbs that fill me up. It wasnt so much of a problem on a bulk, but now that i want to get back to a better bodyweight....i've stalled at like 20-22%.
if I eat say 3x a day a meal with enough carbs and good bioavailable protein and then a good amount of good quality butter as fats to slow digestion so in theory the 40-50gram protein meal will digest slower so I can then in theory eat those 3 meals with around 4-5 hours gaps between? then i have on top 2-3 whey protein shakes with whole milk and some with added single cream for example the shake before bed? what do you guys think I am around180 pounds
I made a mistake, in that I usually watch/listen to these during workouts. I caught the crunchy peanut butter rant right at the start of my first working set of the day. Guess I'll try again in 5.
So your telling me that a species that evolved with inconsistent access to nutrients has biological mechanisms to compensate for that?! Shocked Pikachu face.
I hear that if you put peanut butter anywhere on your body and say Mike 3 times in a mirror, he appears behind you and licks it off... from anywhere...
I was going to buy a years worth of the RP Hypertrophy App, until you said crunchy peanut butter was better. Creamy natural nut butter is superior in every way. If I wanted crunchy peanut butter, I would eat a handful of peanuts. You’ll be hearing from my attorney with the liable claim. 😂
Me living out of a hotel working 14 hours a day keeps me from more than 3 meals Wake up: 50-100g of protein After work//Before gym: 25-50g of protein/some fast carbs After gym/Before Bed: 100g of protein and carbs
@@ravkue6336 if I don’t want the shaker cup to eventually smell bad, yes. I tried that route. If I drank it at the perfect time in my shift it would be fine for about a week and then the inevitable smell would come no matter how much I cleaned it following getting back to the hotel.
This applies to fit, built, body builders, or people who don't have certain health issues. There are many people who cant have a lot of food, no matter how lean it is, due to insulin spikes and insulin resistance. But I agree with Doc's words.
Crunchy? Smooth (that's Australian for... *checks Google translate* creamy)? Lemme add an extra wheel to this old bike and make it a threesom... No peanut butter. Just nuts. Unsalted. Roasted. Wriggling. Rrraw. Golum! Golum.
I typically have about 45g of Cream of Wheat mixed with 2-3 tbsp of CREAMY peanut butter, paired with a protein shake made with water (2 heaping scoops of protein, roughly 48-50 grams of protein). Would this be a sufficient post workout meal? Sometimes I wonder if it’s not enough or if I’m just over thinking. For context, I’m 5”11/220 lbs.
Oh goodness, crunchy peanut butter is for losers!! Hahaha. Smooth, baby! Women prefer men who eat creamy peanut butter. I can prove it! :) I no longer like you, Doc! Ugh, gross. And yes, I was abused as a child. Is that it? I don't appreciate the child abuse joke. I was abused by my mother and a neighbor. Anyway, creamy, 100%! But what if you consume your normal 6 meals a day into 3-4 meals, hence the body can't digest that much food at once? More fat retention? I eat thru the night. It's just my metabolism. I wake up once or twice while sleeping for a quick protein bar, brush teeth and back to bed. Otherwise, I can't stay asleep because my growling stomach will keep me awake. I also eat basically right before bed. Like you said, it's the total or complete picture, not just that one moment.
Here's a mind fuck for Dr. Mike....underneath that crunchy peanut butter IS CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER!!! YOU'VE BEEN EATING IT THE WHOLE TIME!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I didn’t even watch the video. I read & first learned about timing in a book/training manual “The All-Pro Diet” by Tony Gonzalez & the KC Chiefs nutritionist you should eat big AFTER training & lightly before. It’s not what you eat but when you eat. I feel like the body is craving nutrients PWO and we absorb/benefit the most in that time frame
Crunchy peanut butter is a contradiction. Butter by definition is Smooth. Can't baste a steak in "CRUNCHY" kerrygold butter for example. Crunchy peanut butter is just smooth peanut butter someone couldn't be bothered to finish making.
Nutrition and building muscle are two different things. Fasting when fat adapted does not burn muscle. It only happens when you're on a high carbohydrate diet. There are no essential carbohydrates. Teaching people to build muscle while staying healthy should be your teachings. Unfortunately, the first thing you need to do is learn about nutrition. You should try time restricted eating like 16/8 with low carbohydrates for 90 days.
Hey Dr. Mike and Scott the Camera Guy! Have you guys done any videos on nutrition and exercise during dry fasting periods? Ramadan is going on right now and I'm curious to know your take. Maybe a commentary on this video as well? I'm curious whether the science checks out and the advice is genuinely benificial. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uhuWxGmTiUs.htmlsi=P-cktCUc9kH5uRZB
mike you like chunky and practical information? is it possible to have an educational, non-sexual crush on someone? and what is the optimal RIR for stalking reps
I was scrolling facebook while watching this, and shortly after the Willem Dafoe section of this video I got a meme suggested from a page I don't follow about Willem Dafoe, sheeeeesh
Dr. Mike, I could not begin to tell you how much I appreciate and love your channel and your style of communication. I wanted to ask this, 4 meals a day when you mention that, would that mean eating 2 meals and having 2 shakes works out to mean the same result? Would there be a big difference? Thank you for your time in advance.
im usually not very hungry throught the day but i get ENORMOUSLY hungry after my afternoon workout and i even wake up in the middle of the night to eat CARRRRBBBBS.
But what do I do? I do OMAD for 3 days out of the week and eat like the video says the day before, of, and after my workout day. I do a full body Mike mentzer workout and I'm usually sore for 5 days after. Will I still get the benefits of nutrient timing or does my 3 or 4 days of OMAD kill my gains?
I've warched this channel for so long now....and now because i like creamy PB, I gotta leave That's the internet these days 🤷♀️ Cant watch anyone who doesn't 100% agree with me on everything
Yeah, these videos should have like an *NSFW* warning or something. Don't get me wrong, they're hilarious. And I don't watch it at work or around any of my family, friends, or any other human being. Just trying to save someone else some heartache.
latest studies state you can absorb up to 100gm of protein after a workout no problem (by the way the window thing has been debunked) I am a Carnivore and only eat 2 meals a day and have amazing results both with muscle building and fat loss...just sayin!
You know. I am doing computer science but honestly i have learnt soo much and applied so much stuff for excersise and hypertrophy i could probably be a trainer now. Got my fallback if AI takes over
Can someone help me out? I see all these guys at the gym that are huge, good shoulders, good back good chest, good legs good everything. But i see them training and they are training all wrong from what im learning. Shit form, not to failure at all, weird exercises, but yet they still look better and i feel like they grow more. Why is that? I eat right train right and sleep enough if i follow dr Mike. Whats wrong?
“Nutrient timing doesn’t matter” Oh thank god “Don’t eat less than 4 times a day and eat carbs right after the gym” Oh so 100gs of protein shake and after 5:30 gym and no carbs till 2pm is wrong ?
Hello everyone,pls for some help i m on my weight loss journey i did lost 55lbs so far in 3 months,but idk what to eat anymore to have low calories and 160-170g of protein per day,pls for some help
I discovered Mike through the Modern Wisdom podcast maybe 2 weeks ago. I’ve been listening and watching a lot of the video’s on this channel and this whole time I was convinced he was gay because of all the comments he makes about it. Right up until he mentions his wife in this video 😂😂
Mike, just curious if you’ve been disgnosed with Asperger’s/autism? There are some signs that indicate, so would be interesting to hear your take on how it has affected your career and training.
Eating more meals per day is especially helpful if you're someone like me who generally has a pretty tame appetite. I absolutely cannot get enough calories/protein in if I only 2 or 3 meals when I'm bulking.
What us the maximum protein you can absorb in a post workout meal? I know you mentioned training increasing muscke protein synthesis for a few hours. I find it hard to get protein in every meal because I usually only have meat in one meal a day.
You put 10 people in a room together that love creamy peanut butter instead of crunchy.. it’s my 8 year old daughter’s slumber party 😂. #itsallaboutthatcrunch
