There is a lot to dislike about youtube fitness and strength training, but for every 10 vshreds there is 1 Dr. Mike. To have access to information like this in my first year of training is priceless.
When I was a youth I had the ‘Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding” it was a massive (it could double as a 5 lb weight lol) book full of pictures (in B&W) that had all the wisdom of the 90s. It was a great resource compared to the magazines because it wasn’t just disguised advertising for supplements. It was everything a beginner needed and the next best thing to having a trainer. This channel is like a modern version of that book.
I also feel fortunate to have started the hobby with the guidance of knowledgeable and seemingly well-intentioned people like this channel, Mike Dolce, Jeff Nippard and Jeff Cavaliere, and therefore have started with a foundation that has strong core principles, and prioritizes proper technique and nutrition. Beginners to fitness are vulnerable to (the abundance of) misinformation available to them, and can be easily steered in the wrong direction. It’s a shame that they’re so readily preyed upon and misguided by those looking to exploit their interest in improving their health and ability.
Yeah today was my second day in the gym and I’m only 13 years old, I’m trying to get my dream physique before my youth years run out. Happy new year, I hope you reach your goal king 👑
This channel defiantly deserves more subs but Athlean X is one of if not the gold standard for you tube fitness. Dr. Mike should be in that same conversation tho....
@@errolpaul8043 ya the guy who's the pt for major sports teams, celebrities and professional athletes is for beginners. Have you actually ever used his programs I know a few people who have made the purchase. The guy is top notch for beginners, intermediates and advanced trainees
@@N8_Dogg I'd think he'd be a decent PT. But PTs are specialized in injury prevention and rehab. Is he still PT for major sports teams and pro athletes? I've only tried his free programs, but had better results from Scott Hermans free programs. AthX workouts are more towards body building and getting into shape rather than real athletic performance for strength, speed, power. For athletic performance he's way outclassed by Overtime Athletes.
Thank you! After 5+ years of watching fitness youtube videos, you are the FIRST ever coach to actually ask the most important question: "How often can you, or want to actually work out?". It's like all of fitness content is catered towards the top 5% or the lowest 5% on the fitness scale, but no one tries to actually help the 90% in the middle. They don't want to get to the advanced level ever, not even if it was easy to get. They don't want to jump through 20.000 hoops and dedicate their life to their physique - they just want to look aesthetic and stay healthy
“The challenge is for when you’re in the workout; to work hard…” When he starts that part of the monologue; he started speaking to me directly. This information is absolute gold
Boris Sheiko: Powerlifting Foundations and Meathods has became my go-to for programming and all of your videos inspire me. Thank you, Dr. Mike! You're the best! I hope everyone who reads this is getting their gains and eating well. You are loved
Seriously. Dr. Mike has seriously revived the UA-cam health culture. Not only is he super hilarious teacher, but those he's surrounded by are great as well.
As a former amateur bb competitor, now on the mend and coming back to lifting, his content and delivery are pure gold. The only thing missing is the only thing someone in my position doesn't need - the judgy ass judgment. I can watch his vids all day and never feel slighted or put down.
People don't understand just how truly hard and time consuming developing an effective program can be. It took me 5 years of hard work and tinkering, but I'm satisfied with what I'm putting myself through. (I have a degree in this no less).
Between you and Greg Doucette you can’t tell me my little 50 lbs weightloss and transformation wasn’t curated with professionals on my team. I literally thought for this year I want to really make a workout plan and BOOM this video. Now I go to classes, walk, and bike ride depending on how I “feel” that day. I want to go lift weights and look like I know what I’m doing. I’m scared of personal trainers though. The first 2 pushed me way too hard. I would be sore every day and generally hated working out. Now that I do things I like and push myself to my own comfort point, I’m 2 years of working out and 1 year of being really consistent. I don’t want to go back to hating working out.
A whole year later and I’m kinda in the same position as you, I reached out to six pack center youtube channel and some people recommended watching this video and the other 4 on this channel. I saw your comment, and I’m like dude what are the chances, todays the first day of 2023 and I’ve been going to the gym for 2 days now, getting familiar with where the equipment is. And now I’m willing to take it to the next level and properly work out and build my dream physique, any hoo happy new year, hope you reach(ed) your goals king 👑
Best weightlifting channel on UA-cam no doubt about it. Been lifting and watching fitness videos for a long time and recently found this amazing channel. Helps with training others too! Thanks Dr.Mike!
The video is very helpful I am now squatting 1.5X my body weight within a year of starting training which was one of my starting goals. Thank you Mike Isratell.
how I avoided burn out starting the gym was I just went in and did the four starting strength exercises (squat DL bench and ohp) for 5 sets with just the bar for 4x a week. my goal wasn't hypertrophy or strength gain. but just to make it a habit to step into the gym, and not get complacent with myself.
I only recently found your channel and became a fan immediately! For the first time ever, someone was able to put some sense into working out for me - and doing so with a great sense of humor that I really appreciate! Thanks a ton!
Omg I'm so excited about this series!!! I've watched three of his other series so I know he will deliver stellar content again on this one, and I really WANTED a series like this! 😃 Thanks, Dr. Mike!!
Very excited for the next video. Gyms just reopened in the UK this week after almost 5 months of being shut so this is perfect timing for me as I plan my program.
I'm completely mesmerized by your thorough explanations, natural teaching skills, and high quality information. This video is EXACTLY what I've been looking for to design my beginner strength training program. Thank you SO much!! 🙏
This is a fantastic series by one of my favorite strength training experts -- thanks Dr. Mike. I would love to see an edition of this discussing "How to design your first program ... for intermediates." I bet I'm not the only guy out here who has worked himself to an intermediate stage without ever designing a proper program -- or followed a program we made before we knew what we were really doing. Keep up the good work Doc and thank you a ton for what you do!
I tried finding workout routines on yt and surprisingly I can't actually find any. Bunch of them are just hype about what you could do but now showing them all
I am just starting on this video series but I am so thankful for it! Exactly what I need to compliment the online program I am doing to get my personal trainer certificate!! 🙏🏼💪🏼🔥
I love whole-body movements for their time efficiency. I wish I had 2 hours I could spend at the gym, but real-life demands that I might only get 45 minutes.
Hey Dr.Mike, I was wondering if this series is worth a revisit based on the knowledge and expertise you have gained in the 3 years since this series was put out! If this information is still up to date then awesome!
The best fitness channel ever! Thanks Dr mike and team, given me the tools to finally get consistent and even launch my own channel to share my journey 💪
Man, love the channel. I’m just getting started. I created my own little gym at home. This has helped. I only have to walk 25 steps. I needed that. I joined a gym and I felt weird and would make excuses when I was short for time. I’m obese at 6 foot 315 pounds. I’m down 75 but I wasn’t working out for that and I was saggy. It’s go time. I’ve learned so much from you. My body is freaking out. I love the soreness. Most of my workouts are with dumbbell and bent bar. However I do have a fly machine. I’ve only worked out for 4 weeks. My issue is I get a week through my program I tend to change it. I am not sure why. However Ive watched your videos and based on you I have created a program. I’m going to do it for a month no matter what. My actual first goal is to finish this and reevaluate. Love you channel. Thank you thank you thank you
I've been programmed to think about this stuff in such overcomplicated stupid ways. Having to watch these multiple times. Thanks for putting these out, it's a public service.
I’d made a program for myself about 5-6 years ago using lot from what he’s saying in this it great to know I was learning from lifting and improving. I thought I was just going with what worked for me.
Amazing breakdown and detail in this video. I like how you mentioned restriction of time as well - I usually get clients to superset between a lower body and upper body exercise.
5x5 squat 5x5 bench 3x 15 pull ups change to the center grip of necessary (being Harry orrery skinny has its advantages) . 3x 15 one leg push ups. 5x5 leg press. 5x5 good girl machine then same but with bad girl machines. We can only use multiples of 5. To progress add a set or a little bit of weight or more pause in deep stretch.
Wish I’d found this video sooner! Gonna give the sample program (with a couple of tweaks) a go. I’ve been lifting for almost a year and I found trying to cram 3 sets of every exercise (that I want to include) per session accumulates fatigue faster. Time to simplify and focus on getting even better at the compound movements.
Totally new to this world. I want to make sure I understand correctly. I should do full body work outs and those should made up of one exercises per muscle/area. The reps/sets are what get modified as I advance. Example Bicep curl Tricep pull down Bench press’s Shoulder press Etc. Thanks in advance!
"dad doesn't love us" hahaha love your humor man, this video made everything so much clearer, especially for my adhd fucked brain, thanks so much, you were really a push for me since I do any changes in my life slow, this really fucking helps
Spread sessions out evenly for sufficient rest time provided for different muscles. Compound exercises prioritization for efficiency and muscle better A little bit of exercise variation should be implemented from a workout sess to workout sess basis. You dont prioritize the same muscles first every single session, everything should have a rotation at the top and bottom. Alternating supersets, ex: move from back squats to hamstring curls, rest for a minute then go back at it. One muscle rests while the other goes. This is for saving time, fyi it does build up a lot of systematic fatigue and can be detrimental for advanced gym goers.
Great video! You make it very simple and basic for all beginners, this is my first plan that I am organizing. Your charts that put in there also were very important and made the video 100 times better. Thanks for going over everything.
@@mattc4266 It depends on what the end goal is. Smith machines take balance out of the equation so you can get in unnatural positions to target a specific muscle group. I.e. squatting with your legs infront of you or calf raises without having to balance a barbell. When the goal is overall strength and training a movement, barbell is king. The free weight allows your body to control bar path and engage miscellaneous muscle to keep you and the weight in a balanced position. I.e. the core and adductors/abductors lighting up during a squat.
Awesome. Was doing supersets with two full body exercises and just gassing. Always doing legs first. Nice to get some suggestions for cleaning up my beginner attempt at a routine. Thanks!
great video, but for a beginner that's going to be working out at home unsupervised, I think compound movements are safer done with dumbbells than a barbell; there's a lot that can go wrong with a unsupervised, unracked, beginner barbell squat, esp if they've heard from youtube that you should train to failure. At least with a dumbbell squat you can train to failure then just safely put them down.
I’m doing three weight training sessions a week and have just added in training for Australian rules football 2x a week (1.5 hours per session). Consists of skills, practice and a fair amount of running. I’m surprised that my lifts are still increasing!
i often cheat on my biceps curls to get few more negatives in. i think i had good progress so far and was able to curl more weight more often in good form
This channel is a goldmine of quality content!

Insane amount of quality information. Knowledge vs fluff ratio is off the charts.

Tricep pull down
Bench press’s
Shoulder press
Etc.

Mike,
I really like the your ideas on the muscle priority within the workout and the week. What a great way to look at it. Thanks.
Sir, You are awesome 🙏
great video, but for a beginner that's going to be working out at home unsupervised, I think compound movements are safer done with dumbbells than a barbell; there's a lot that can go wrong with a unsupervised, unracked, beginner barbell squat, esp if they've heard from youtube that you should train to failure. At least with a dumbbell squat you can train to failure then just safely put them down.

Thank you so much for providing such an excellent content.
It would be awesome to have a sample beginner series based off of a different split, i.e. push pull legs.
I have a weak upper body strength, ill be using your advice on upper body days
I also use this channel to verify some of the information other fitness channels put forward
i often cheat on my biceps curls to get few more negatives in. i think i had good progress so far and was able to curl more weight more often in good form
Learning soooo much from you man, your a beast!
Cannot stress How much of good content this is! I would really like to help grow but sadly my friends would not understand the topic
