thank you uncle Alan

An Hour and a half of Jordan and Austin, hell yes. Glad to see you guys increasing your online presence.

Absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for taking the time to put this information out. Can't wait for the next one.

Hi Doctors! A quick note to say I appreciate this podcast! Please keep them coming. I'm a 45 year old guy working through the starting strength novice program. Great insights and support! Thanks.

simple and clear points on an important topic, thanks a lot DR.

Thanks again for quality content! To put this compliment in perspective; I've been an ICU nurse for almost 14 years (something continues to go wrong with my plans for advancement aka children) so I have an advanced case of cynicism snarkosis. I have been following you both intermittently since discovering starting strength and removing my special snowflake status has done wonders for my gym time and the removal of a significant lower abdominal fat pad hasn't hurt either. Thank you both for saying some of the things I think every. Single. DAY. Also thank you a.z.b. for the deadlift tips via Allen, and thank you Jordan for the diet advice via gram live. I thank you both for the continued advice.

Learnt a lot from this video, keep up the great work. We need doctors of this standard in the U.K.

Love their honest humor! More pls!

excellent video, thx guys!

I'm all in, Thank you.

Great informative video. One thing though. Can you increase the volume on your, Jordan, mic? The quality of the sound is good, but then I need to turn up the volume to hear you and then Austin is way loud.

Thanks for a great podcast

Hey guys, liking the videos. Quick idea would be to put time links to somewhat of an index in the description for things like definition, causes, etc etc as I'm not sure everyone has time to listen to a 1.5 hour video. I have high blood pressure and would like to have been able to skip to the parts relevant to exercise as I'm already aware of what it is and causes etc. thanks!

Watching these older ones from the future. Glad to know Jordan will eventually find the volume button

Thank you gentlemen! This is already a classic. Nuance @ RPE 10

You guys made me google the definition of titrate. Not sure how I feel about enriching my vocabulary to lift heavy stuff, but these are great vids.

I would like to see a podcast from you guys talking about strength training for people suffering from copd or emphysema in particular.

Thx docs. Oct 2018

good work guys, keep it up. One tip though, try to equalize the audio volume. either Jordan is whispering or dr baraki is screaming ;)

hey Docs, great info. A question since you brought up creatine at one point. I've been weight training for about 15 years, but mostly in traditional "bodybuilding" style regimens. Only recently, now that I'm in my early 40's, did I decide I want to try to get stronger, which is how I've stumbled onto your works. I have a PharmD, which is a degree in pharmacy, so I have a pretty good knowledge of anatomy, physiology, chemistry, etc.. and like both of you, have largely dismissed supplements over the years other than protein supplementation. But on the recommendation I've heard both of you make, decided I need to try creatine for the first time. I've read that monohydrate can cause some gastric distress and bloating, and read somewhere, I cannot remember where, that a creatine ethyl ester product did not cause such effects. I have only heard you talk about monohydrate, so my question is --is monohydrate the only type you endorse, or does it really matter? And as an aside to Austin, I actually live up the way from San Antonio in Austin, and wonder if you have any recommendation for a good barbell club in Austin, Tx. Thanks guys, keep up the info streams!

can you point me in the right direction for the research on resistance training and increasing elasticity of the arteries? I have only seen the opposite that resistance training increases arterial stiffness. am I missing something?

Not only will the Viagra help with the pulmonary hyper-tension, it will also help with the performance anxiety that Austin is worried about.

My ridiculously high BP is what scared me into losing fat (got up to 228 pounds at 5'4"). BP was consistently at 170-190 systolic over 118-129 diastolic. I had no idea it was so high until my doctor had me test it at home and log it. With meds and losing 29 pounds so far, headaches have lessened dramatically and I just feel so much better overall, even though I'm still obese. Fewer bouts of depression. Don't get exhausted from kneeling down to work on something anymore. I was so worried that I would have a stroke or heart attack if I started working out all of a sudden, that it kept me from exercising even during the few times I was motivated to. Thankfully my doctor explained that the benefits of exercise will greatly outweigh those risks.

Jordan is spot on regarding BP machines rarely being calibrated correctly, and It's ridiculous that taking BP the old fashioned way has all but been forgotten. On top of that, most BP cuffs are way too small for patients with arms bigger than 15-16 inches.

58:40 Is doing aerobic cardio important for powerlifters? 1:00:50 Should I drink a gallon of water every day? 1:03:14 Are there any modifications to Starting Strength program for women after c-section? 1:03:45 How to diagnose high blood pressure if readings are inconsistent? 1:06:45 How to use resistance bands in barbell training? 1:09:35 Is there a significant carryover from heavy barbell hip thrust to squats or deadlift? 1:13:35 Is high blood sugar common with powerlifters? 1:15:50 What is the actual data relationship about bodyweight and high blood pressure? 1:17:14 If you lift something heavy and you feel lightheaded is there a problem? 1:20:30 Research about Valsava. 1:22:10 Mildly elevated ALT and low GFR.

What to do? 1:34:08 Lightheaded when training fasted. Why? :)

I'm 17 y/o, living a healthy lifestyle and doing barbell training. I'm not overweight nor underweight. I don't smoke and don't drink alcohol. My hormone levels got checked and are fine. Nobody in my family has ever had high blood pressure. I've been to 2 different cardiologists. Both couldn't find any reason for my blood pressure. They asked me if I take steroids. No I don't. So they said the reason for my blood pressure is my training. Because the Intensity in barbell training is so high. What do I do now? My parents want to cancel my gym membership because they believe what the docs said.

Arthur Zakirov there is such a thing as secondary hypertension. How have you been?

Wait, can somebody explain the bit where calories reduction is related to sodium intake increase?

Uneven audio (Baraki-OK, Feigenbaum-Very Low) makes listening difficult. Thanks for the content.

Good day' I can see that this will be a beneficial podcast. Two questions. What range can I squat to with a total hip replacement? My Orthopedic says 90deg. Your friend Rip says below 90 (normal). My ROM is stalled at bench height, wearing a twenty pound weight vest 3 x 30... Is it weakness that's not allowing me to progress or anatomy? I appreciate you both considering the questions. Cheers

Hard to say. We've coached a number of folks post-hip replacement who were eventually able to squat to depth just fine. It could be a technique issue, but we can't exclude an anatomical issue without seeing you. Also - why are you doing sets of 30?

Anyone know what is Hybetez Remedy about? I hear a lot of people cleanse their high blood pressure issue inherently with this high blood pressure treatment.

San Antonio cool im in Laredo wish you were my Dr. Lol

great content!! I have a question if you would be kind to answer: I got inguinal hernia mesh repair 2 months ago (surgery was classic, no Laparoscopic) and my doc told me to start physical activity after 2 months. What's your opinion on this? it's safe to start training? And if yes, what would be a good idea to start with? I was thinking benching for high reps (like 10) for an RPE 5-6, squating very light(25%) and some accessories for upper body. Also any advices in avoiding hernias or it;s something that can't be prevented ? (is still strange to me how I got it since my lifts are low (3 plates squat, 2 bench almost 4 deadlift). Thanks alot!

(obligatory disclaimer: Not a doctor and my hernia surgery was laparoscopic) Yes, start training. I would suggest starting with the bar, do five reps, and add weight to the sets until the bar slows at all OR until you feel discomfort in the hernia repair region. You'll build back fairly quickly. As far as hernia avoidance, you don't; they're a genetic weakness that can be exacerbated by excess bodyweight and/or weight training. The mesh repair should prevent additional inguinal hernias.

I Fatass thx for your answer!

What are the risks of taking bloodpressure medicine? I understand the importance of medicine but also understand the importance of finding the rootcause of why the condition came in the first place..or else you are stuck on medicine rest of your life.. that would not be the goal for any person or doctor i would think?

Why not train fasted?

If someone is getting numbness or tingling in their hands due to something like a herniated disc in their cervical spine, are there any main lifts you would avoid? Numbness occurs more at night due to head position and get frequent to infrequent tingling in their fingers during the day, but no weakness or loss of reflex/motion. Assume an otherwise healthy individual in their 30's with intermediate to advanced lifting experience.

What makes you say it's a herniated disc?

@alexandermurdoch4641

The longevity of the symptoms and tissue work around the area hasn't alleviated symptoms, don't think the nerve is compressed by anything outside the spine. Ulnar nerve and carpal nerve have been controlled for with splints, although compression of Ulnar nerve does occur during sleep. Symptoms just manifest differently (pinky area instead of ring finger). NSAID's haven't shown relief, either. Patient uses a cervical pillow at night and can alleviate most of the night time numbness and radicular pain. Could be stenosis, just l lean more towards a disc issue.

Alexander Murdoch given that splints have aren't slam dunk treatments for nerve compression in the periphery, the time course, lack of daytime symptoms, lack of neck pain and injury history, the bilaterality, and nerve distribution fits better with ulnar nerve compression than disc herniation but without imaging you'd never know. Soft tissue work wouldn't do anything for either cause, however

Appreciate the feedback. An MRI is scheduled, so I guess we'll know for sure. If its either Ulnar nerve compression or some failed structure in the cervical spine, would you advise against or for weight training? No symptoms present during the actual training. You should get paid for this kinda stuff, huh? :)

Heh! Yea I would just train probably unless symptoms start arising/getting worse.

Are you familiar with isolated spurious systolic hypertension in tall, young, athletic men and if so what is your professional opinion? You can find the online journal article that I researched here journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/1358836X0000500303 My systolic has always been elevated in comparison to diastolic. It normally fell around 140/65 give or take. It seemed that the healthier I ate and the fitter that I became always resulted in a higher systolic number. My resting heart rate would stay around 50 bpm. It seems the older I get the lower my systolic becomes. This all just seems to be backwards in relation to the typical aging process, which makes me believe the article's findings.

Jordan, what's higher, your powerlifting meet total or the number of times you say 'nuanced' in a day? Lol

What is the best product or brand to fix your high blood pressure issue inherently ? I read many great opinions on the net about how Hybetez Remedy will help you treat your high blood pressure issue inherently . Has anybody tested out this high blood pressure remedy?

GOWAD . . . doesn't sound very good, does it?

gentleman, your audio level is terrible. can't even listen to it it's so bad.
