    @@N8_Dogg I'd think he'd be a decent PT. But PTs are specialized in injury prevention and rehab. Is he still PT for major sports teams and pro athletes? I've only tried his free programs, but had better results from Scott Hermans free programs. AthX workouts are more towards body building and getting into shape rather than real athletic performance for strength, speed, power. For athletic performance he's way outclassed by Overtime Athletes.

    When I was a youth I had the ‘Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding” it was a massive (it could double as a 5 lb weight lol) book full of pictures (in B&W) that had all the wisdom of the 90s. It was a great resource compared to the magazines because it wasn’t just disguised advertising for supplements. It was everything a beginner needed and the next best thing to having a trainer. This channel is like a modern version of that book.

    I also feel fortunate to have started the hobby with the guidance of knowledgeable and seemingly well-intentioned people like this channel, Mike Dolce, Jeff Nippard and Jeff Cavaliere, and therefore have started with a foundation that has strong core principles, and prioritizes proper technique and nutrition. Beginners to fitness are vulnerable to (the abundance of) misinformation available to them, and can be easily steered in the wrong direction. It’s a shame that they’re so readily preyed upon and misguided by those looking to exploit their interest in improving their health and ability.

    @@mattc4266 It depends on what the end goal is. Smith machines take balance out of the equation so you can get in unnatural positions to target a specific muscle group. I.e. squatting with your legs infront of you or calf raises without having to balance a barbell. When the goal is overall strength and training a movement, barbell is king. The free weight allows your body to control bar path and engage miscellaneous muscle to keep you and the weight in a balanced position. I.e. the core and adductors/abductors lighting up during a squat.

    Thank you! After 5+ years of watching fitness youtube videos, you are the FIRST ever coach to actually ask the most important question: "How often can you, or want to actually work out?". It's like all of fitness content is catered towards the top 5% or the lowest 5% on the fitness scale, but no one tries to actually help the 90% in the middle. They don't want to get to the advanced level ever, not even if it was easy to get. They don't want to jump through 20.000 hoops and dedicate their life to their physique - they just want to look aesthetic and stay healthy

    Between you and Greg Doucette you can’t tell me my little 50 lbs weightloss and transformation wasn’t curated with professionals on my team. I literally thought for this year I want to really make a workout plan and BOOM this video. Now I go to classes, walk, and bike ride depending on how I “feel” that day. I want to go lift weights and look like I know what I’m doing. I’m scared of personal trainers though. The first 2 pushed me way too hard. I would be sore every day and generally hated working out. Now that I do things I like and push myself to my own comfort point, I’m 2 years of working out and 1 year of being really consistent. I don’t want to go back to hating working out.

    Totally new to this world. I want to make sure I understand correctly. I should do full body work outs and those should made up of one exercises per muscle/area. The reps/sets are what get modified as I advance. Example Bicep curl Tricep pull down Bench press’s Shoulder press Etc. Thanks in advance!

    I’m doing three weight training sessions a week and have just added in training for Australian rules football 2x a week (1.5 hours per session). Consists of skills, practice and a fair amount of running. I’m surprised that my lifts are still increasing!

    5x5 squat 5x5 bench 3x 15 pull ups change to the center grip of necessary (being Harry orrery skinny has its advantages) . 3x 15 one leg push ups. 5x5 leg press. 5x5 good girl machine then same but with bad girl machines. We can only use multiples of 5. To progress add a set or a little bit of weight or more pause in deep stretch.
