    About the speaker :
    Doug McGuff, MD became interested in exercise at the age of 15 when he first read Arthur Jones' Nautilus Training Bulletin No. 2. His interest in exercise and biology led him into a career in medicine. In 1989, he graduated from the University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio and went on to train in Emergency Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences at Little Rock where he served as Chief Resident. From there, Dr. McGuff served as Faculty in the Wright State University Emergency Medicine Residency and was a staff Emergency Physician at Wright-Patterson AFB Hospital.
    Throughout his career Dr. McGuff maintained his interest in high intensity exercise. Doug realized a lifelong dream when he opened Ultimate Exercise in November, 1997. Over the past 13 years Dr. McGuff and his instructors have continued to explore the limits of exercise through their personal training clients at Ultimate Exercise.
    In addition to his work at Ultimate Exercise, Dr. McGuff is a partner with Blue Ridge Emergency Physicians, P.A. Dr. McGuff Lives in Seneca, South Carolina with his wife of 25-years, and their Children Eric and Madeline.
    Doug is the best selling co-author of Body by Science ( amzn.to/eBSQif ) and The Body by Science Question and Answer Book ( amzn.to/bUajU5 ).

      Exactly! When lifting you do engage the aerobic subsystem of the cell but done properly it engages the anaerobic part of cell. That's where the awesome stuff happens..... It happens well after finishing the workout!

    I'm a huge fan of Dr. McGuff. He put me through a workout in 2009. Not only is this man extremely intelligent, but he looks the part of what he teaches about. Some trainers in the Slow Movement exercise field just don't look like they train. Dr. McGuff is someone who practices what he preaches. I've learned much from him the last 7 years, not only from meeting him, but watching his seminars on youtube. I'm sure by paying attention to him, I've sparred myself from injuries and have been able to add muscle and stay lean into my 50's

    The main long term of increase in VO2 max is increased oxygenation of the blood, and removal of CO2 due to increased lung capillarization, and that doesn't happen from isolated resistance training. The main short term adaptations are mitochondrial density. Neither of those are primary adaptations to resistance training in the optimal TUT. TUTs of 85+ seconds have been shown to produce less hypertrophic adaptations than TUTs between 12-85 seconds. Longer duration exercise PROBABLY causes type IIx fibers to convert to type I fibers (to genetically express a spectrum that would commonly be thought of as slow twitch. We know that type I an IIB (and other along the spectrum) revert to IIx in paralysis victims and with extended immobilization. Lung capillarization requires multiple large muscle groups to be used simultaneously (at advanced stages). A "set" will either result in failure due to inability to produce threshold force due to anaerobic factors or due to aerobic factors and if failure occurs due to aerobic factors than by definition you have not achieved anaerobic failure. That doesn't matter so much since the last rep of a set done to failure with high voluntary and reflexive force actually is LESS productive than prior reps which can achieve higher peak forces. If you try to flex a muscle as hard as possible, the stimulus to systematic fatigue area under the curve is probably greatest at 50-75% of maximum duration, not at 100%.

    Can someone break this down in layman's terms? Is his argument that true cardio is having a stronger heart and that can only be obtained my muscular exertion via an anaerobic method ( kettle bells , sprints, Hit). That steady state cardio is not an efficient means of strengthening your heart and that it compromises your health to do so?

    @mertonhirsch4734 Рік тому +1

    This explanation of cardiovascular adaptation is flawed. It is true that sort term adaptions in cardiovascular/aerobic improvements (basically VO2 max) are at the cellular, muscular level (increases in mitochondria, lactic acid dehydrogenase enzymes and increased perfusion of the muscle) these adaptations are rapid, and plateau very quickly, on the scale of 6-12 weeks. Untrained subjects can rapidly improve VO2max by those local mechanisms, but will hit their ceiling quickly. At that point the body can only make further adaptations systemically, by increasing stroke volume, and at the "base" of the pyramid, by increasing capillary density of the capillaries that pull oxygen out of the lungs. Elite aerobic athletes have utterly maxed their peripheral adaptations and can only make additional improvements in rate of work output by systemic changes, primarily how much oxygen they pull out of the lungs.
    The body prefers to make specific adaptations first, such as increasing the oxidative capacity of the muscles that have been stressed. If lung capillaries increase, but the muscles don't have the extra mitochondria to process it, it is wasted. Also if someone is only using a few muscles for endurance based activities, then it is a waste to cause adaptations in muscles that aren't being used. If you only use your upper body, or one arm to do a lot of work, it is a waste of resources to raise systematic capacity. Also, the body is unlikely to be able to stress the ability to extract oxygen from the lungs if only half the body is use for the activity. Who cares if the heart can deliver more blood, or if the blood is more oxygenated, if the muscles can extract the oxygen or have the machinery to use it to burn fuel?
    The point is that most people can extract plenty of oxygen from the lungs and deliver it to working muscles relative to their muscles' ability to process it, and so the best way to fine tune aerobic capacity is to increase utilization at the local muscular level, but after 6-12 weeks or so, this mechanism is using all of the oxygen your system can supply and the only way to increase further is to supply more, an ultimately, the capillarization of the lungs is the limiting factor.

  • @jimriley9903
    @jimriley9903 4 роки тому +4

    Sure, if you define conditioning to be the set of adaptations provided by strength training, then of course strength training provides it. If you define conditioning the way the rest of the world does - i.e., the level of continuous power production you can sustain - then it declines steadily and markedly if you do nothing but strength training. This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, because you get better at what you train for and worse at what you don't. There's no magic going on!

    • @rcaw75
      @rcaw75 2 роки тому +4

      I think his point is the heart doesn’t know if you running or walking or sprinting or lifting heaving weights it just responds to the demands placed upon it. Those demands reduce over time when you train due to adaptive responses that primarily take place in the working muscles
      Strength training is an efficient way to bring about those changes if done with sufficient intensity and minimal rest in between exercises.
      However if you want to get better at running you need to run more as running is a skill like any other skill and requires practice

      You walk all day
      You dont need to just walk for 30 min and label that exercise
      Have you ever worn a heart rate monitor it takes at least 10 min before you really see a spike in heart rate...unless you increase speed. If you walk at same pace lets say 3mph...it will take 10-15 min before you see a good increase in heart rate...
      Bc in the begining your muscles arent fatigued. As they begin to work harder...lets say 30 min in you will see an increase in heart rate without increasing speed. If you did an hour...again there would be an increase, bc again your muscles are more fatigued
      The question is...why the fuck would you want to wait an hour to fatigue the muscle thats creates the stress that then stimulates the heart? I can do in 4 min what you will do in an hour just by doing HIT cardio like tabata. Call it nom semse all you want,but im willing to bet im bigger faster stronger leaner and in better shape than YOU and i only exercise less than 2 hours per week.
