I have 4 babies. I can’t afford a sitter and hubby works a ton. Thank you so damn much for making these videos- they really help on those days when I can’t make it to the gym.
OH GOD! If you’re anything like me, DO NOT START WITH 4 SETS! WTF MIKE? I already brought my bed sheets into the living room, because stairs aren’t going to be an option this weekend.
I'm just here to watch for some motivation while I do my home leg work out. This video was super helpful a few years ago when I started working out at home!
Kudos on pushing to your limits there Doug. Looked like it took all your willpower to hold it together after those squats 10:01 *Eye poppin' final rep @9.5* ... *tries not to pass out* ... *prays Dr. Mike will talk faster* ( T - T )
Yup, sick to death of seeing is stupendous arse myself...How the hell he's got to that many subscribers and followers is totally beyond my comprehension for sure. 🤪

I’ve always been confused with progressive overload vs an approach like this for hypertrophy. Are they roughly equal in results? Or is this more an approach for just a more casual at-home workout where the goal is more to just build more of a beginner-friendly solid base
Be cool if I could buy a set of those power blocks right now but it looks like people bought out retailers to try to flip sets for $1500+ on ebay for the 40lb set and $2500+ for the 90lb set. Oh America, never miss an opportunity to exploit a crisis for financial gain.
You maintain your torso more upright= Less hip flexion = Less posterior chain activation = More quad activation. Also, more ankle movement = more knee flexion = more quad activation, thus your quads do most of the work and are well targeted and isolated as possible during squats. It helped you?
What's the theory behind the Myoreps? In all of Dr. Mike's other stuff he talks about how going to failure is too systemically fatiguing, and to rest long enough to perform at as near to peak performance as possible, so I was a little surprised when I got the RP Home Gym program and it had all these sets to failure with 5-10 second rests between sets. Why the totally different training advice from one workout location to the next?
@@kbonez2 the eccentric muscle damage from a bodyweight pushup is nowhere near as high as say, a 225lb bench. Therefore failure in the context of bodyweight training is much less fatiguing GENERALLY
I recommend you swap the music from this video with the Rich Piana theme song because your total viewers and total free testosterone will rise by roughly 1200% . Thank me later
Not trying to be a douche, but this looks like rpe 5 to me. When i'm doing legs at home even at rpe 7 i am breathing heavy like a dog and i need to sit down after sets.
Its not more dangerous than looking up to the sky to see a plane flying. If our neck wasn’t meant to be flexed or extended then we would not be able to do it. People need to get out of the idea that the spine is somehow fragile and not meant to move when in reality our spine os pretty resilient.
Greg Doucette. Dr Mike's favourite coach for utilizing rpe, constructing proper mass and strength blocks, and all around good general advice for sound programming...Lol.... Obviously two extremes on different ends of the scale:one, hmmm really .?? The other, pure excellent solid information.. Sorry if I insult anyone, just bored with seeing and hearing so much of the nonsense that comes from people almost daily.

“That was dogshit. For sure failure. Good stuff, good stuff.” Best Israetel quote ever 😂

Dr. Mike very good additional videos on at home training
Wait till my Indian mother sees you stepping on books Mike, prepare for soreness.
See you around channels I watch hope you're progressing

Dr. Mike’s quads 😳
I think his vastus medialis looked at me, now I'm scared =(
if only i didn’t get a V-Shred ad
update i got another at the end
Imagine if you had UA-cam premium
That's a good thing. It means Vince is paying mike in a sense. Haha

Yeah bruh imma go do some pushups again
Dr. Mike, give us more of these videos!! Some of us workout from home pleeeeease 😭🙏🏾
man if dr mike could do a video on critiqueing these old videos like he does with celebrities and body builders
Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for!
I just bought the program, but Mike Israetel was not included. Who's going to tell me my back is rounding?
Personally I'm doing nordic leg curls for hammies. Just doing negatives since I can't do leg curls with my bodyweight lol
You can also do Harrop curls. It's a Nordic curl variation which focuses more on hip extension than knee flexion.
@@Rhynome Lol. I do those involuntarily on the concentric. I sure ain't strong enough yet for strict no-arms nordic leg curls

Great video! Thanks and greetings from Croatia!
Are there any videos like this but in gym not at home...for free?
10:13 WTF at the size difference of their fists???
If not because of corona, I wouldn't have mental resillience of doing 5x5 bulgarian split squats 3-4 times a week
Me too
I want to train with Mike!
I did a superset RDL with nordic curls and man....
Is there a version of these workouts with no dumbbells at all?
If you CAN lock out your legs, with the rest of the technique dialed in, should you?

Why elevated heels? What is the advantage?
more knee extension = more quads
Why squats with elevated heels?
ThePatomuscat because most people lack dorsi flexion in their ankles.
more vertical position
Puts more emphasis on the quads i think also
You maintain your torso more upright= Less hip flexion = Less posterior chain activation = More quad activation. Also, more ankle movement = more knee flexion = more quad activation, thus your quads do most of the work and are well targeted and isolated as possible during squats. It helped you?
This works
No shoes. Why?
Civilized people dont wear shoes inside a house.
Come on Dough. My guy

SuperMraposo and everything I’ve seen says failure on high rep sets is at least as systemically fatiguing, not less so.

I think MIke Israetel should move to Sydney Australia. The gay guys there would really love him!
I bet Doug looks big next to normal dudes.
I forgot to add dumbells to my doomsday kit🤦♂️
The form on the RDL... jesus christ
Hard to watch
Yea, i had to exit the vid, cringed so hard
@Seeing Through mike is saying that they're nice, when they're brutal
They’re okay

This is the hardest to do at home imo.
DB Leg Curls, DB RDL (if too strong, do single leg), Sliding Leg Curls, ...
@@TheKeyboardBeatz I've been doing, Spanish squats, squats listed above, Bulgarian, banded squats, Nordic curls, hamstring lifts on stairs, db rdls, banded db rd'ls, stair lunges.
Ooooo aaaa, i do these elevated heel squats, but go even lower.
6 set of 20-30 and i cant walk for 4-5days after.
Not trying to be a douche, but this looks like rpe 5 to me. When i'm doing legs at home even at rpe 7 i am breathing heavy like a dog and i need to sit down after sets.
His neck on those RDLs tho 😣
hes neck is absolutely fine
Mike just post an Instagram post pertaining neck position, and dough is probably OK. But neck extension doesn't look pretty to look at thou 😂
It just looks painful and I thought neck should stay in line with spine.
@@courtneymcfarland8333 in general, it's good if you can keep it neutral. If it extends a bit that's ok too as long as it doesn't hurt.

What's real blasphemy is that frankenstein's monster of a double neck rhoads type guitar on the back of the guitar book. What an ugly piece of wood.
I finally found a way to make the Bible useful
There exist a billion exercise for legs , these 2 exercises only will maintain at best your leg muscle

Doug struggles with keeping his chest high
Why is Doug so stiff and puffing his chest out so far
Because he doesn't know how to hip hinge
@@94AdamR clearly
I've got powerblocks. They fucking suck.
Thank You Guys❤❤
