    Asking a Hollywood trainer if his clients and potential clients are on steroids is like asking a lawyer if his clients are guilty. Mike, of course, he's going to deny it.

    Dude says he wants bloodwork on his clients, then goes into how one had a heart attack and needed a stent. I mean... I could see high cholesterol being an issue, but what in someone's bloodwork shows signs of an impending heart attack? I genuinely want to know. Otherwise, he's FOS.

    The deadlift thing is not actually that impressive. Maybe for the average person but not for a serious, super experienced lifter. Have to account for the fact he's been training hard consistently for 20+ years, and is rich. He can afford the best quality food, supplements, doctors, physical therpists, massages, and all the best cutting edge fitness equipment and fitness related modalities. Do that for that long and anybody can hit that deadlift

    He's a bullshitter. He's was handed daddy's money to start gyms and then got lucky his buddy knew Hugh Jackman and passed him off to him. I'm sure he's an OK trainer(not saying much considering most trainers are shit) but he's probably worried that Mike would go in depth on actual training. He would be exposed as mediocre, lucky Mike was more focused on the topic of the celebrity training industry itself instead of actual training.

    @@--SPQR-- At that many reps a 1RM calculator is going to be pretty inaccurate, so 645 is definitely not his 1RM. To his credit he looks built to deadlift and he's on the skinnier side, so 430 for a lot of reps may not be too much of an exaggeration. Especially if he focuses on the deadlift the most, as many skinny guys do, because it's the only lift they're naturally good at.

    I'm sure a lot of things that makes people say "Wtf is this trainer doing" may sometimes come down to the fact that these trainers are often dealing with super eccentric people and actors, who just think they know better, don't actually want to be told what to do, or just dont't wanna work hard at all in the gym (The Kardashian "workout" comes to mind) Also a bunch of actors who are ripped previously stated they have no desire for the sport or fun in it and only see it as a job/must. I'm sure that's a factor too

    I really appreciate the portion where he spoke about the obese clients with whom he is working for years to make a lasting progress. About a year ago, I was 450 lbs, after about 300 days I began to plateau at around 385 with just intermittent fasting, so I began powerlifting (because I enjoy it and I have the requisite equipment in my garage). I'm still around 385 but I am much stronger and my measurements are going down. It is frustrating to not see the weight loss but it helps to see and feel the strength increases. It's also nice to know that slow progress is still good progress. That really helps. Thank you.
