Anyone who listened to Dr. Mike on his show knows full well how many times he was dying to be WILDLY inappropriate here, yet managed to hold back and present as an adult. You are an inspiration to so many of us and we applaud you for this exceptional display of self control sir! 🤣🤣🤣 #neverchange
😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂 yes
Lmao, real
He's gotten better, which is good. It was getting out of hand for a bit there.
I’m actually a young male from the meathead section of UA-cam, just following dr mike around ❤
I see Dr. Mike's beautiful bald head, I click. I'm a simple man.
Same. He is very smart, just like Hormozi.
Same here! He will never escape...
Don’t forget to eat only cheerios and Gatorade and abuse steroids like Mike. Super optimal science based bodybuilding brah.
@@TravisHowrish-v2c you miring brah
Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and Dr. Mike Israetel together? This is a good day!
Omg the Muscle Gods have heard our prayers 💪🏾🏋🏽♂️
Agreed. The dope-ness is too much
❤
Thank you !
Thank you so much!
This will be one of the rare occasions where Dr. Mike actually talks about the subjects and not sexual innuendos. 😂 Which has a tendency of dominating the conversation.
I’m gonna skip then
@@leehomer6642 😭
I was talking to some men in their late 40s and early 50s and they were complaining about how hard it is to stay in shape at their age and I asked one of them "How often do you exercise?" and he said "Oh I haven't been to the gym in years". I wonder how much of the pains of getting older are due to the body actually aging and how much of it is due to just neglect for your health compounded over the years.
Dr. Mike is my go-to for laughing and educating myself simultaneously
He is so funny
Hard to overstate how much I enjoy these two together. More please.
Thank you so much
My sweet mother is my inspiration to remain strong and pay attention to my mobility/agility throughout the rest of my life. Mom is almost 91 and spent way too much time sitting. She is now laying in a hospice bed with total sarcopenia and getting her diapers changed and bed baths. I refuse to go there! We all have a choice. I'm 64 and hope to have at least 25 to 30 more good years.
I'm 61 and going through the same. Mothers sticking around to inspire us. I am carnavor and still need to up my diet with supplements. I'm going to the gym 5 days a week again, following this channel, very motivational to have a female PhD leading us. Most studies are done with men. My thyroid is correcting but had osteoporosis diagnosis at 28 with a back fracture. 100% will get the density back to solid now that someone makes sense. I want to make muscle and be strong and flexible. Reverse aging.
For people who have sedentary jobs even just standing up and walking around briefly every 20-30 minutes to get your blood flowing prevents things like blood clots and a lot of other future issues. We didn’t evolve to sit for long periods of time.
We all end up there eventually. No point in running from it.
Eating well and moving around is enough. There's really no point in building a Lot of muscle for longevity. You Just need to keep your muscles. Eating like Crazy and stressing your body with heavy workouts might not be ideal for everyone. The problem happens when your digestion is bad or you don't eat and when you don't even walk around.a Lot of old people have terrible digestion and that's why they have sarcopenia. They Will Just kill themselves If they lift heavy Weights when they can't even digest food. Lifting Weights Will Never build muscles when you can't digest food or sleep.
My mom was physically inactive and smoked 2 packs a day , she got lung cancer and died at 51 , she loved life more than anyone else in the family , weddings , birthdays , hanging out with friends and her life was cut almost in half by her unhealthy habits , my brother just had a kid and my nephew will never meet his grandmother . I miss her every day but she is a big inspiration to make different choices.
I love Dr Mike’s delivery so much. I’m pretty sure this is the first conversation where I heard him ask if he’s okay to swear 😂
He's awkward around attractive women, per himself
Nah, he usually ask that
He was really great!
@@Franticity7 awkward? His got that rizz
He usually asks on other people’s podcasts
I was in the Air Force Reserve until I turned 57. I learned in my 40s I couldn’t ignore my fitness if I wanted to pass my fitness test I slowly stopped paying attention to working out until 2 yrs ago when the VA doctor came in asked how long I had been diabetic. Told him I had not known till now. I am slowly fighting back to a better level. Will soon be 65.
Keep up the good fight
I'm sorry, but the, "How long have you been diabetic?" was presented in your comment with comedic timing. I couldn't help but laugh.
However, now that it is out of my system, I wish you the very best, my friend.
These two have both had a hand in changing my perspective when it comes to building muscle and losing weight. I started focusing on building muscle rather than trying to lose fat. And I gotta sat, I feel and look way better! I'm glad this collab happened
Started lifting again at 58 and have been at it for a year and a half. The Dr took me off type 2 diabetes meds. I noticed that women give me a second look again after not seeing that for a few years.
You nailed it in the intro. He talks so "common," and I think a lot of people will appreciate that
Man, both of you guys are excellent in your respective social media/content corners. What a GREAT collab!!
Thank YOU
I have never clicked on a video so quickly!
Same
I swear every day he’s on a different channel and I watch them all lol
Dr Lyon
Dr Mike
Just listening should grow your muscle
The ad reads spike my cortisol and cause hyper-catabolism
LOL love this
@@DontStandForNothing
I'd change my attitude about 'the ad spikes' - then, ' cause spending your time & energy complaining 😫 (while simultaneously driving up your cortisol levels) - is not gonna change a thing.😊
I have to agree with Dr Mike, whom I've followed from his day one on social media, this interview was captivating and, at 53, relevant
You can never escape us, Dr Mike. Thank you for hosting him! You served some of the best questions he's received so far.
Dang Gabriella this is my first time running across you on YT and this is the best interview with Mike I’ve seen yet. Awesome questions and it's obvious you’ve prepared. This is great!
The collaboration we all have been waiting for ❤
This was one of the best interviews of Dr. Mike Israetel that I have listened to. Dr. Lyon you had fantastic, targeted questions that brought out the best in Mike. As someone that has been an athlete, my whole life but struggled with weight as well and recently lost 50+lbs and gained muscle, I am passionate about sharing my experience with others and about the longevity effects of having more muscle. Being lean and having muscle especially post 50 years old is a GameChanger💪
My partner and I are 54 and we very much care about how we look. We both train several times a week and I have no issue keeping up with the young people in my gyms, but I've been doing this since 17. I am more passionate about training now than my younger years. My passion for everything physical gets stronger as I get older. Blood work, stress tests, etc are stellar. He often says your blood work looks like that of a 30 year old. Make it a lifestyle and you'll be fine. My passion for the physical gets more passionate per year.
Everything in our relationship gets more physical. It's important to keep moving forward.
40 years of lifting as one of those middle aged white women started at age 14 form is so important before weight just like Dr Mike says ! great information
Be stronger today than you were yesterday.
Be stronger tomorrow than you are today.
This is the interview I have been waiting to see!!
Thank you !
I have been waiting for a discussion between these two for a long time. 🔥
Happy we could deliver
I can’t put my bag in the overhead compartment bc I’m too short hahaha 😂 vertically challenged
Then there’s me bumping my head on chandeliers
@@pricklycats haha!
same!
Same and I'm a dude. Real short kings round down.
Do squats until your legs are strong enough jump up and put it in with ease 🤣
Dr. Gabrielle, been watching/following you since you were on impact theory 4 years ago. I have also started following Mike Istratel recently and this is by far the most enjoyable podcast i have seen from your channel. Appreciate what you do!
Dr. Mike speaking to a woman he's not related to? Wow 😮
lol, does he usually surround himself with family members only?
@@Siegbert85 even with his fleet of Lamborghini jets and butlers he's never actually talked to a woman. This is a historical event that should be carved into rock for future generations.
Yes. But he needed therapy after.
Gabrielle Lyon will never hit the wall
Dr Gabrielle is an excellent interviewer she didn't ego interrupt dr mike and I learned alot.
Won’t lie. Clicked for the looks. Then stayed for the intelligence.
Yesss finally! Love these 2!
Two of the greatest on this one! I wish these two were prominent 12 years ago when I started my hypertrophy journey in my very early 20's. I took a 7 year break but found them last year when I started working out again. In any case, I'm glad they're preaching now. I'm currently 33 and following their instruction has transformed my health outlook and fitness levels. 400# deadlift and 285# bench @ 175# body weight & 12% BF. Thank you guys for all the education!
I will definitely be watching this multiple times. Love these two. Love the info!
Thank you!
Omg I’m so excited for thissssss !!
Beautiful Dr., she is great too❤️
I wish my mom
Would watch this! And her doctors! And the professors at the university educating those doctors! ❤
THIS IS THE COLLABORATION I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!! Love Dr. Mike!! 🤩💪🏼
Damn I was never expecting this union to happen !
Fantastic chats and more tidbit trivias.
Love it.
Petition to have Layne Norton next!!
( I'm actually stunned it hasn't happened yet...)
Thank you
Love all his analogies AND delivery! A stellar storyteller.😊
Oh wow ! Loved this!! ❤
I'm really impressed that Doc Mike was able to clean his language to the extent that he did. Well Done.
An interview with Dr Mike that isn't just "two bros hanging out"? Fascinating.
Dr. Mike and Dr. Peter Attia are two of the best longevity mofos on UA-cam right now , all practical advice , no bullshit.
Yehhhhhh totally loved this 🙏 Thanks so much Dr Gabrielle and Dr Mike . Hadn’t heard of Dr Mike before so will be following frim now ! I am 64 and weight train 4 x per week . Thanks for great info ! 🙏
Just flat out great interview!
Wow! What an amazing podcast. It debunked so many myths and answered so many FAQs. I wish everybody could watch it.
Outstanding podcast. When Dr. Mike and Dr. Lyon get together, you learn some facts!
Thank you for the content
I see Dr Mike, I click, like, and comment. Love the UA-cam saturation of the man right now.
This was terrific!! Love Dr. Mike.
Best duo ever. Please do more with Dr Mike!
Seeing dr. Mikes big grin on the thumbnail gave me a jump scare 😂
Best one yet!!! Love Dr. Mike!!🎉
Good show. I started strength training at age 63. I do calesthenics - pull-ups, chin-ups, push ups, tricep extensions etc. It has been an incredible experience. At age 67 I have a chin-up PR of 43 and a goal of 50 by Labor Day. Yes, that is a LOT at any age! I started with enough strength to do 5 chin-ups and terrible form but I stuck to it and added more exercises as my strength improved.
I can safely say that I look better and possibly younger at 67 than I did at 47.
I was a runner and cyclist when younger so I am no stranger to fitness. I just had no idea how much strength training mattered to overall health until relatively recently.
I look forward to my time at the calesthenics park every day. Best part of my day!
Love listening and learning from these two!
Awesome! I learned so much 👍👍👍
I am so glad!
That must be the best colab ever!
Excellent podcast episode. Very informative and entertaining.
TY!
This video should be mandatory for anyone with a minimum interest in exercising. Good stuff
Like you Mike puts things in terms we can all understand. Great communicators and inspiring.
Love love Doctor Mike all the way from Kenya, East Africa. He speaks my language and is one of the reasons I'm committed to my weight lifting routine. Aaaaw and I love my body. Its big and strong and I feel amazing as a woman in my 40s
Dr Mike holding back more than last time
Dr Mike is great
I'm 5 minutes in and Mike hasn't sworn once. Can he do an entire podcast?
15:32 🤣 I'm sure Mike was feeling the pain of not swearing by this point.
Great video Thanks 👍
Valuable information .
Mike is direct and factual..
Two great champions for all things Protein & Muscle, this should be good!
Mike appearing everywhere lately! Love it
I really enjoyed this podcast, it ended way too soon! Hoping for another one!
58 years old, old paramedic and personal trainer. I started reading bodybuilding mags in the early 80s. Learned alot, but following Dr. M and his buddies, including Dr. G, Dr Wolf, Dr Pak, and so on... Man, the amount of knowledge available these days.
Was weird seeing Dr. M acting "like" an adult.
I love Dr Mike!!! He is as funny as he is intelligent😊
"Charts are all make believe." - best quote of the show! COMPARISON IS THE FUCKING THEFT OF JOY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💪💪💖💖
Thank you so much.
First Andy galpin and now mike israetel? let's goo
I am 62, have been lifting since 20s, and yes it makes a difference, recently started lifting heavier, way less cardio, what a difference
Awesome longevity video and a lot of views! 💜
Dr Mike you crack me up! Love your advice and of course dr lyons ❤
Great content liked and subscribed.
Thank you!
Dr. Mike has that Sméagol-tier smile in the thumbnail
Dr Mike making the rounds on some awesome podcasts lately
Excellent!
Wonderful!!
I have 2/week sprinting and plyometrics along with my strength program. I have to say sprinting was the most impactful intervention I added, ever. The metabolic adaptations are incredible. Start slow, mobility and rest are all primary when starting. I started 4 years ago as a heavier, nonathletic lifter and still going now As sprint coaches preach-"with sprints-less is more". Fast over 40 by CM Monteleone is a great book for sprint noobs
@IslanderATP
Thanks for the book recommendation😊
Are there any recommendations in the book for best shoe selection for run sprinting?
@@barbarafairbanks4578 Actually I have a video on my channel covering just that. I started with the zero drop ,barefoot style shoes for sprinting. The spongy running shoes with a positive heel raise are not good. TYR Dropzero barefoot trainer are the best IMHO; the have a nice wide toebox and a very natural fit and sole. I would start my shoe research in that area. All my runs are on a soccer field so eventually I eventually switched to spikes-but thats a whole other story lol.
My dad got to be his healthiest by starting to exercise in his forties.
He did a few diets here and there, but it was mostly that he found a couple of hobbies that he got into so he enjoyed doing for years on end
The statement “otherwise I would not have had you on my podcast “ was unnecessarily harsh. If I were Dr Mike I wouldn’t come back.
Two of my faves 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Dr MIKE! AWESOME!
Be nice Mike....
Looks like see dressed up for u
Love u both
I'm 35 now, and I have been weight training most of my adult life. One thing I noticed over a long period of time, is the people who have been weight training for a while always age well. You get used to the same faces at the Gym, and the people who weight train compared to the people who do the Treadmill or other Cardio Machines then leave.. there's a huge difference in how they age over a decade plus worth of time. The people weight training even though most of the ones I recognize I know must be nearing their 40s look like late 20ish where as the cardio people in the same age group just look terrible, like they haven't even really been working out at all.. it's shocking to notice this over a long period of time. There really is something to Skeletal Muscle and aging.
I often notice that in terms of conditioning. Like the cardio only people will usually have great cardiovascular endurance, and they won't be overweight in terms of BMI, but over time they become increasingly "skinny fat". In other words they have low muscle mass with higher bodyfat distribution, so over time a larger and larger percentage of their body mass is just fat. I assume this is connected to hormonal changes with age causing muscle deterioration, whereas in the people who do resistance training that process is slowed down somewhat.
I've known a few guys like that over the years and I get the impression that a big part of why many of them don't do resistance training is just because it feels too much like starting over from scratch. It's an ego thing. They've been training one way for decades, and at some point or another they've made a lot of progress doing it. So having to go from that position to struggling to bench 50kg is not an attractive proposition to them, even though it is clearly beneficial.
I can't really say anything about aging well myself though, I'm 33 and male pattern baldness took me out. I look pretty good from the neck down if that counts lol.
Aside from just looking flabby, lack of muscle mass can indirectly cause inflammation through insulin resistance. Also a lot of the people doing cardio at the gym just seem to be trying to mitigate an otherwise unhealthy lifestyle. (Granted gym-bro lifters are often unhealthy for their own reasons.). People who are health conscious follow a well rounded training routine, because they know that’s best for overall health.
@@FreedomFox1 The older generation of Lifters before the Gym Bro Culture came around with Social Media look great whenever I see them and I go to several locations. It's the young crowd that think making themselves infertile on GEAR and don't even yet have the basics of training down such as Mind Muscle Connection and full range of motion while in control to tear your fibers better.. they don't look good either. My observation simply is the people who are training correctly and consistently with weights over a long period of time look exceptional for their age, women too. I saw an old friend of mine the other day shes almost 40.. looks 25.. amazing.
I already know Dr Mike will hold on some of his jokes🤣🤣
30:39
33:48
35:03
Times that gives a nice dose of Dr. Mike's inner nature.
Hoping that Dr Lyon does a Dr Mike workout!! 🤞😀
Awesome!
This is amazing
10:00 I was born with a deformation called pectus carinatum with slight scoliosis and started getting severe chronic chest/back/spine pain and bad circulation in my left side since as early as 5th grade. It makes strength training and life in general extra difficult, so I learned this lesson really early on in life. As depressing as it feels to know I’m gonna age poorly regardless of what I do, it’s been somewhat of a blessing to gain such an appreciation for bodily autonomy that most other people my age take for granted. Most people only begin to appreciate their physical abilities after they get some kind of injury in their 30s or 40s. I was essentially born prone to injury so I’m well aware of how things can break down quickly if you don’t take action while you still can. It’s really easy to feel like a victim after suffering everyday for most of my life but I’ve really been trying to be grateful for what I have because everything could be so much worse.
Dr. Mike is funny as hell!
Hi Dr Lyon, I love your content, I was wondering if you can discuss how to prevent injuries and how to workout while healing from an injury..I already did physical therapy but it still hurts and it’s limiting my workouts and volume and weight that I use, I’m sure there are other people who are in the same boat, I hope you can cover this topic in the future, thank you
Dr Mike going everywhere
omg he is so funny, cracking me up with that straight face
