Female celebrities are uncomfortable working out with anyone; all these "learn how Betty White got in the shape of her life to play John Matrix" campaigns are just crap to pretend like they're female Tom Cruises, Jackie Chans or Bruce Lees. It's why like 90% of these celebrity training videos are just blonde dudes with fades talking straight-on to a camera. As soon as we actually realize their routines consist of cigarettes, starvation, pilates, running around with bodyguards, and whatever the body doubles and stunt doubles do, it kinda ruins the illusion.

Yeah, saying high blood sugar has no effect since the body works its hardest to bring it down quickly is a bit loony. We can measure this: for the same glycation level, a more even blood sugar results in fewer new blood cells, ie. stable blood sugar results in less glycation damage and longer lived blood cells. IIRC there is also evidence that high blood sugar spikes negatively affect the walls of the arteries too, but I cannot remember the specifics

"Fist your way to success" 😂😂 this one just made my day!! Imma use it for sure! 😂

Mike's comment about the "cheat" meals is so spot on. I've been a bodybuilder for over a decade and as I got older my capacity to lose weight while having cheat meals drastically went down in my 30s. In my 20s I could eat pretty perfectly Sun-Fri, and then "anything" I wanted on Saturday and still see weight loss. In my 30s anything more than a few slices of pizza/more than a few drinks is enough to basically reverse any progress from the week. While I get what the trainer is saying, for most people, if you want to lose weight it's more like 90/10. (90% of your meals should be flawless, 10% you can indulge a TINY bit.) The problem is it's a really slippery slope. A really bad cheat day (or even a really indulgent cheat meal/too much alcohol) can literally reverse 6 days of perfect dieting. What works for me is if I'm genuinely trying to hit a weight loss goal, I have one cheat meal, that's it. And usually it's still pretty clean. (like I might have a few slices of pizza or something but ensure my calorie intake is much lower on that day) It's honestly much easier to just always eat clean until you reach your goals. It takes more discipline to manage eating poorly every once and awhile than just being aware all the time. It's SO easy to over indulge and have your week go from 2 steps forwards to 1-1.5 steps back.

Nah, you're not going to feminist hell for saying they should have put more muscle on Godot. My mom, born the same year Wonder Woman was created, always wanted to BE Wonder Woman as a little girl (also met my father in a weight lifting studio way back in the 50s) exclaimed upon first seeing Godot when we went to see the first movie together, "But...she's so...skinny?!"😂 (Won my mom over by the end.

It's a lot harder for women to get "jacked" then it is for guys. They have a fraction of the anabolic hormones in their bodies naturally as compared to men. And the side effects of gear for them are more extreme and risky since its even further away from being natural to their bodies--excessive body and/or facial hair, enlarged clit, various health and mood issue potentials, sky rocketing sex drive, etc. (Note, not all gear will have those effects though). This is real life, not a comic. Because of these innate issues of biology, I'm a little more tolerant of female actresses playing super heroes not being jacked. But there are some women out there that are jacked (don't know how many are completely natural). I think Gina Carano would have been a good person to play Wonder Woman. She's attractive, dark haired, tallish, and definitely more muscular and physically trained in combative sports than Gal Gadot.

The mountain climber reminded me of yoga move, from downward dog with a leg raised, bringing that leg to the opposite elbow. My initial thought was the kick (as long as not done fast/hard) adds strength and flexibility to the hip. Also kind of reminded me of a side plank with a leg raised as the load has to shift more to one arm to maintain balance and the hip carries that extra load. I think I'll try this in a tabata on my next hiit workout, alternating normal mountain climbers with this just for (lol) kicks.

I used to watch workout fails to brighten my day.....now I watch training fails with Dr. Mike, and it's a whole new high

Normally I watch fitness content in a serious, learning mood, however this video literally had me crying with laughter, thankyou so much for this.

I screen clients where i have them go through different motions so i can see where they are strong or weak. What type of injuries do they have or had, and i look for muscle imbalances. This also helps me determine if i can train them or if they require someone with better knowledge like a physical therapist. I mostly train older people so theres a lot more things to consider. When im training someone younger with no major injuries its a lot easier and the programs look similar. But for those types of clients (young and healthy) i try to only train with them hands on for as little as possible. Once they learn proper technique i tell them they should be able to carry on by them selves and to reach out whenever they have questions. As a trainer i like training people who require more thought. I dont want to be a babysitter or motivator for someone i want clients that i can really turn their life around Hopefully one day ill be a physical therapist Love your videos and i wish i was at the level of knowledge that you are. Hopefully one day.

Recently started watching your videos and am enjoying them so far. When you mentioned the diet it made me wonder what your recommended diet is for someone looking to lose some fat while gaining muscle. Generally I try to eat cleanly, mostly whole foods, higher protein when incorporating strength training. My coach had suggested a diet predominantly of meats, rice (limiting brown rice and preferring white rice), fruit, and leafy greens. Honestly, I haven't tried it fully yet, but have considered it as a diet to help reduce inflammation (I tend to get that from training jiu-jitsu 6-7 days/week)

It's or maintaining weight or increasing to gain muscle. Or you first lose weight and then when you are done start gaining muscle. Only starters in the first year can decrease weight and gain muscle. I have spend way to much time trying to lose weight and gaining muscle at the same times. It's not how the body works. If the body thinks you are starving it's not going to start building muscle

Just increase your protein intake. Track your protein intake and calories overall. Train hard with weightlifting and progressively overload. You'll see results for sure.

Mike I hope Hollywood ever gives you the chance to transform one A-list celebrity, and watch the world be wow'd with the real results you'll get for them with proper coaching. We're rooting for you! Thanks for being a bastion of good information sir.

I swear that this series is worth its weight in gold. It's comedic and educational. Love the sexual innuendo 14:58 🤣😂. This series has literally everything. Dr. Mike is the goat!

Hate the sexual inuendo. Love the comedic gold. We don't need more gym creeps.

Most people say they want to be in shape but don't actually want to do the work to do it. Food means to much to them even if it's killing them, but hey giving it up is so hard. I have lost 70 lbs by myself by pure determination and willpower. I have gone from 285 to 215 and still going. Food is nice but health is so much more important to me, we have to change our mind set or you will fail. Your videos are highly informative and fun to watch. I still have a ways to go, but I have reversed already so many health issues that it is awesome. The only thing I wish is that my mother could be here to see I have changed my world.

Love this channel but “Viking Mike” is the best thing about it… absolutely brilliant!

"Fist your way to success!" My favorite advice I've ever heard.

Don't know how it is in the USA but here in Europe Dietitian is a protected term and nutritionist is something everybody is free to call themselves. So when you hear "I'm a nutritionist" it basically means (s)he flunked school and is googling stuff you ask.

Glad I ran into this channel! Great humor combined with genuine good advice! 💪🏻 When I was younger I’d be watching these kinds of Hollywood bs vids thinking thats the trick when all it actually did was distract me from making progress and make me want to skip certain groups because I had no alternative less complicating excersise to do

Man, that's 22 minutes pure comedy gold right there :D I laughed so hard every time they put the viking hat with the blond pigtails on Mike's head, got me every time

I’m looking forward to this, been on TRT for past 2 years, hasn’t been the greatest. Blood pressure up a lot, weight gained/water retention, estradiol went up a lot and have suffered some libido issues. Recently just got off and been going hard with the HCG. Was thinking about trying clomid/enclomiphene, as well as pregnenolone, but def interested if what you have to say

Mike I love your advice and humor. I have been a huge Wonder Woman fan since the 70s. Gal is amazing and I really enjoyed the 2 dedicated WW movies. One point though is she is from Israel not france and you more than most people shpuld know how to pronounce her name correctly. Your celebrity critique videos are awesome. I just need to know how to get some of their genetics. Best wishes and keep on helping us mere mortals to be better versions of ourselves.

Love this series of videos! Have only seen 2 people so far actually do decent workouts... Henry Cavill and LeanBeefPatty.

As someone who is 5 foot 6, and at 128 pounds, and having been training at home and at the gym for competitive Arm Wrestling, I am very curious to see a video of you possibly reacting to how arm wrestlers train. Just to see if there is by any chance a different, better, or safer way to execute certain exercises.

@TheCatabolicTrex

Really armwrestling training in and of itself is not inherently dangerous, you just have to be careful about overloading, particularly when it comes to heavy partials and when training the hand. I made the mistake of going way to heavy on wrist curls at first as I was already pretty strong and ended up fucking up my wrist for a few months

These are the greatest videos I’ve ever seen

Dr. Mike I sometimes make the mistake of watching your critiques while working out....the finishing on my knees crack killed me....I had to restart my set lmao love your vids! Absolute legend!

I can watch your videos forever just for your humor & reactions.

I would love to see what you think about Katee Sackhoff’s training with Steve Zim.

"I'm not just a mean person", then immediately saying Magnus would be great as the actor for the next Wonder Woman. Every single video, SO many laughs. Favourite fitness channel now, by a mile.

She shouldn't be doing Super sets, she should be doing Wonder sets.

The Mountain Climber variation is obviously a mobility exercise. Remember he stated he was training her flexibility, agility, etc. Dynamic, compound movements that replicate the some of the odd positioning of her stunts, yet done in a safe, controlled manner, seem like a good idea to me. I'm sure he isn't suggesting that it is an exercise focusing on hypertrophy.

"Wonder woman is suppose to be jacked" thank you Dr Mike, someone FINALLY said it. Gal Gadot did a fine job but I wish they did the same as they do with the guys. Get them to really bring up their physiques.

To be honest, it wouldn’t surprise me if this was the best that they could do for Gal. She is a naturally very skinny woman, if you’ve seen her early modeling appearances or her role in Fast 5. Some people are just not genetically suited to gaining much muscle so she was never going to match the character’s look from the comics and it was probably a challenge to even get Gal to her onscreen Wonder Woman physique,

@exnihilonihilfit6316

Why? It's about what's perceived as beautiful for the sex in question, not about being jacked. It's about getting max value individuals, attractive to the audience. So in that sense, they DID DO the same as they did with the guys - got an actor that's close to the ideal for their sex (and species 😄). Why apply male standards of beauty to females, egalitarian?

Do one on some of the antique york barbell and dumbbell routines they used to sell with the barbell and dumbbell sets. That would be cool.

One of the funniest videos I have watched in my life, doctor mike is a national treasure

How did i not find this mans channel sooner

Finally somebody with some influence who says what I've been thinking for years. As an avid comic book reader I stand by the assumption that Wonder woman is by all iterations and athletically built woman. Just like Superman has powers and they are apparent in his physique, Wonder woman is the same. So when they decided to do Wonder woman in the modern era I assumed they would ensure the actress was well muscled. However they kept her skinny because the industry was probably didn't want to take the risk. I agree, a true-life Wonder woman would built like a sprinter athlete, or another type of well muscled female.

I could see the sprinter athletic body type in Wonder Woman. I could also see it how while me and a friend talked about WW and our favorites, how he described her being more like a professional Swimmer in body than a runner. Maybe in this they wanted a beauty who was with a more slim, feminine body type like Gal. She was a model and actress, and also was a dancer. Dancers typically have long legs and very toned bodies. They're usually toned, but are still very feminine and thin, this is due to their training. I told my friend this, and he somewhat reluctantly agreed, that I thought she resembled a female MMA fighter in physique. If you look at the WW in the comics, she changes from one iteration and one artist to another, if only slightly, but she really does have a fighters body. Like pro female fighters are lean, not all are ripped (some are but not all), and they are super cut. It's a different muscles group that are being worked in fighting and training fighting than in other sports like a sprinter or even long distance runner who will have a very slim, thin body, but one that distinctly still is very muscular. Honestly I always kinda saw WW as this Amazonian warrior woman who was trained to be a warrior from a young age. All she knows is fighting and battles and so she would be in very good shape. She'd be in that kind of warrior shape. Like mid to late 20s Donna Troy is more of the silky, feminine, softer body with some muscle but a bit more subtle than Diana who is the daughter of the Queen of the Amazons and was born and raised as a fighter and warrior.

@@zaynes5094 I understand what you are pointing out with this logic. However MMA fighters are not swimmer Slim. Look at Ronda Rousey, Holly Holmes or even stamp fairtex. And here's the thing even if that was the case it's still doesn't lend itself to Wonder woman. Wonder woman primarily fights in a weapons melee style where she uses Shields swords and other weapons. The constant and repetitive use of such weapons would result in added musculature to the core, shoulders, rhomboids, triceps and biceps. Not the frail build of a VS model. It would probably result in a more crossfit-style woman. I think the reason they didn't go this way was, they didn't want to risk appealing to the dad bod type that sexualize thin women. They were more interested in ensuring people could sexualize the actress than they were win portraying a female warrior. Which I understand why they would think that if they were operating from a fear-based approach. However I personally see it as a missed opportunity to give little girls a symbol that echoes: it's okay to have strong physicality and occupies space. You don't have to shrink and be the size of a frail woman to be considered beautiful. Till this day we have a social stigma that teaches young women that they should aim to shrink and disappear rather than strengthen and occupies space. Missed opportunity to display strength as not just an inheritantly masculine trait.

My wife is at a pre/menopause stage of life and is about 2 or 3 months into a workout routine. I tried showing her your channel to mine for inspiration and help, and her response was that a man doesnt know anything about her age group and needs. Can you point me to content to help her?

This is quickly becoming my favourite series on KZread 😂

19:28 He may be doing this kind of exercise not for the training aspect of it but for a bit of mobility/stretching, the spine and legs get a lot of stretch with this movement with a bit of core training so he may be trying to do exercises that incorporate some more mobility into the workout to help prevent injury. Thats the best idea I can come up with as to why he does that specifically.

THIS IS the best commentary ever. LOL I LOVE DR MIKE

Man honestly I came for the really informative lectures but stayed for the humour😂 Keep it up

As A Norwegian I am now more in love with you since you made fun of swedish people extra points for you lol. IF I ate only a fist of everything I would starve though , unless I am misunderstanding what he is trying to say

I gotta' say, I did magnus' ab workout routine, in which those leg click mountain climbers are part of it. It actually did work after a couple of months of consistently doing this routine and I did see results. My core wasn't very strong to begin with so perhaps these were beginner gains in that area.

Mike, you've already done Henry Cavill's training with Gym Jones for his first Superman role? It's an older one, but given I work 5 minutes from the gym, and have trained there, I'd be curious how past training compares to modern science. Keep up the great material, and love the humor!
