L O L Your PHD has really gotten to your head more than the needles you've been using for your own growth. You're critiquing a man who at least comes off as all natural compared to you sir who have without a doubt been using anabolic steroids for years. I think you're self consumed with your "expertise" when it comes to cold and heat exposure considering all the information backing the benefits of it. Kudos on your PHD sir but please pick your "victims" with more thought into it. You sounds simply silly in comparison to Huberman who dwarfs you in brain function. Most of your recovery is coming from the needles you're jabbing bud. Obviously you're putting in the gym work but without that jab you know you would be wrecked and father time never loses. Serious question, do you target individuals that are much higher in every aspect of society than you in hopes that it might give you a slight boost to their level even with the disadvantage of making yourself sound incredibly stupid?
@g7majoh125 I change up the legs more as I've grown away from traditional training a bit. I do one heavy leg day day on Wednesday and on Saturday I do hill sprints and finish with some heavy sled pushes and pulls as my second leg day.
Guess I’m the weird one of the weird ones cause I’ve always had amazing calf’s and never train them. Not once and they look like a sculpture attached to a big blob from there up.
Thanks for sharing my program as its worked for me (for last 33 years; with some modifications/additions) and I’ve seen it work for a lot of other people as well. Would be fun to have a chat and/or train. All the best, Andrew
My issue with Huberman, etc is two fold: 1) they use a credential from a specific field (Neuroscience in his case) as authority to speak on everything. 2) They quickly slip into promoting stuff with questionable benefits because no one would watch if they just said "eat better and work out regularly".
Yeah. As an actual physician, I'll tell you he's guessing much of the time and is actually a snake oil salesman who wears nicer clothes than most snake oil salesman. Same as Paul S. Peter Atia is a bit better, but he still tends to speak way beyond his scope of knowledge.
Doc, the fact you mentioned Australia and you knew something about our sporting culture made me so happy. Love your clips, they have been hugely helpful for me. Would love to hear you talk one day about exercise and its benefits for anxiety and how to maximise those benefits. Thank you.
No the fuck he's not you idiot you don't become a doctor in neurological science from nothing it's one of the hardest branches of medicine and science, Andrew's profession and degree is far more impressive and tough than sport science, so don't talk shit on people far more impressive than you. @@opensocietyenjoyer
I used to train my neck a lot. Then I had a motorcycle accident and I credit my neck strength in saving my life. I did fracture my neck but the way I landed on my neck I should’ve ended from that accident. I really do credit my neck strength tho
Nice to see someone critique Huberman. The guy comes across (to me) as a “listen to me I know everything” kind of guy that doesn’t actually know everything. In all the interviews I see him in, people never seem to challenge him but instead have this look of awe on their faces like everything he says is gospel.
He's a grifter. No different than all the other talking heads. The venn diagram of cucks in this comment section simping for Huberman and idiots that love Jordan Petersen is a straight up circle.
He comes across exactly the opposite to me. A pretty humble guy and will listen to different opinions. I m not sure how you can come to that conclusion.
Huberman has admitted to being on TRT... which is odd that he would ever need it in the first place given how supposedly dialed in he is. Maybe, just maybe, his training "protocols" have a relatively small effect compared to blasting exogenous hormones.
@@dylandeane5237 I do not know his dosages. I know he's publicly claimed he "microdoses" to 1400 ng/dL. He also publicly claimed to be in a committed relationship with one woman. There seems to be a gap between what he says he does and what he actually does.
He is 48 where it is normal for people to start using TRT no? Wouldnt it just be better then to try and optimize his health even more by doing the extra stuff that he does?
What got me was right before that he said "there's nothing to do in a sauna but sit there and stare at other dudes balls.." Then he goes "wait, I like saunas." 😂😂😂
I have to disagree with you Dr. Mike on the nasal breathing portion, if you are strictly jogging for say cardiovascular fitness (i.e. engine building) and you cannot sustain a certain pace because you're trying to keep a zone 2 heart rate, a good portion of runners will say "to slow down breathe through your nose" this way your body has to naturally slow down in order to keep the sustained pace. I understand what you're saying in regards to "not trying hard enough" but if you're doing an RPE 2-3 run it's completely okay to keep a lower intensity. I don't have any specific credentials I've just ran a few ultra marathons.
Thought the same thing. Nasal breathing is a good indicator that you are in Zone 2, which is important in endurance training; but this is not his level of expertise.
@@kleitosaliagas5668 Zone 2 is for more than just endurance training. It is also good for fat-burning. It also improves performance the higher aerobic zones. I know these are not Mike's scope. That's why I watch Mike for chuckles, not for fitness advice.
I don't think he's saying mouth breathing is good when not playing sports (don't know what his opinion on it is), he was purely talking about breathing through your mouth during intense exercise.
I think it’s because huberman said he exclusively breathed in and out through the nose. Although I might’ve heard wrong. Nasal breathing sounds like in through nose out through nose. Should always breathe in through nose out through mouth for optimal oxygen production.
@@garrettvncyou meant to say he should've cite a source for everything he said? I dont think he has to, this is not a debate situation. If they are debating about a specific thing, only then you cant stop at just saying what you think, you need to have a credible source/evidence
@plwadodveeefdv it is not just about bodybuilders. Where did u get that kind of impression??? I'm hybrid kind of guy and have over and over problems with shin splits, had no idea I get some information on that topic but it is helpful. Altogether, this channel is not just for bodybuilders.
Big track guy here, speaking on “tib raises” 😂 They are very helpful on a perspective of athletic endurance and longevity for season after season of running and sprinting to help either ease or avoid shin splints entirely. I had severe shin splints for 2 years, training the ol’ tibs in the off season was great 👍
@bmccaffe76 To be honest I’m not sure what other benefits they have other than the benefits regarding shin splints. I’m mainly just speaking for my experience and how they helped. I did them weighted (raising the weight while sitting down) and unweighted (standing up leaning on a wall)
@@laneythelame That's where I learned to start doing them and really got a lot of benefit along with doing the backwards treadmill walk. Had pretty bad knee pain but those exercises coupled with a stretch routine really got me out of that funk.
I think the rationale behind heavy tibialis raises is that because the tibialis is primarily used for absorbing the shock from your footfalls while running/jumping, having excess strength in that muscle will prevent wear on the knees; the goal is about athleticism and longevity, not visible hypertrophy. It's the same principle behind how you often say that if you can deadlift 200lbs, then doing something banal like picking up your baby has basically no chance to hurt you.
Yeah, I think Dr. Mike’s perspective on everything is from the angle of hypertrophy, which I understand, that’s his topic, but the vast majority of people are just thinking of being fit and healthy and active for as long as possible. I think he should sometimes point that out more clearly. His whole thing is building muscle, but that doesn’t really equal health.
Ok but wouldn’t that muscle be strengthened by running for 75-90 minutes with a weighted vest? By the way I want to call bullshit on that. How does he only run once a week and have that endurance for it?
@@AlphanumericCharacters I'm sure he didn't worked up to that endurance by only running once a week. Try running every other day for a few years. Then drop that to once a week. You'll find that your endurance doesn't just go away. Especially if you do other kinds of training between those sessions. I know a lot of guys who only run on mondays (met them at my local park while doing the same thing), and they run for at least an hour with no problem. One of them is 55 years old. We're not talking about sprinting for 90 minutes, slow jog is very doable for 90 minutes.
I train full body workout every other day. 20 mins cardio & 50 mins weight training. 3 sets of 10 reps. Was unsure if this was working until i had to have 2 months away from the gym. Recently went back n my strength n stamina has dropped. Ill soon be back to where i was. Thanks for your videos Dr. Mike. Good to see Dr. Huberman in the chat too.
Just wanted to thank dr. Mike and everyone on his team. You fixed some emotional shit I developed with weighing myself last time I hit a brutal platou. Didn't know about maintenance phase. Today is the first day in two years I wanted to know my exact weight so I can adjust my diet accordingly. Thank you so much for all the good work and scientific information you put out. You definitely are changing some lives out here.
It's not that he thinks Huberman is qualified. It's a politically motivated mellow stance on the review. He goes super easy on those who have potential to be a problem or a future prospect.
@@canererbay8842he's not shouting out Andrew. He named off 3 guys he said you should checkout instead of Huberman because they know what they are doing...
Two points: 1. “Doesn’t he have a job?” I agree with you. It’s clear he prioritizes his training and that’s awesome. Unfortunately, the general population’s priorities aren’t aligned enough to be able to maintain such a schedule consistently. 2. I’ve been doing cold exposure for 8 years and I can say that the biggest effect it has had and the reason I continue it, is mental. Sure, it has its calming effect (which I think you could benefit from, especially during your high dose phases/cycles, at least putting your face in ice water) but more about challenging your discipline. There’s little to nothing else that challenges your discipline more than waking up from your warm and cozy bed and choosing to get into cold water. Starts your day with a win that gains momentum.
@@11jerans Never said it was the hardest…reread it. Sounds like you could learn to deal with your own stress better, instead of projecting it on others. Good luck.
@@Brainiac5 Nah lmao that's his grifter side talking 😂 If it were the 70s he'd be advertising a "scientific lung strengthening protocol" consisting of 40 cigarettes a day 💀
Speaking of Attia, he posted a short video yesterday where he just "discovered" the benefits of deloading and consequently hit a PR after not being able to work out while traveling for a week. To paraphrase his explanation, "You might be saying, ''Peter, you idiot. How do you not know about this?'. Well, obviously, I did know about this, I just ignored it.".
There's a lot Peter Attia does not know. He has zero evidence that 2.2 g/kg/day of protein is good for longevity. It might be okay for a 20 year old bodybuilder, but not the 50 yo grandma. Even the studies that he cites in his book don't recommend that amount. Worse yet, his cited studies are not even about longevity, but only maximizing muscle growth.
Might have something to do with the fact the none of these people know a fucking thing. They just go wherever the flow is leading them one paper at a time.
@@afternoondelight6322 They do not go with the flow. It's the exact opposite. They are often dogmatic and are resistant to changing their views because they will have to admit they were wrong.
@@Matt_Alaric I never made the claim that high protein is bad (1g/lb). I said Peter Attia doesn't have evidence that it is good for longevity. If you are defending Peter Attia, please show the evidence.
I rarely strength train, I’m just a bum who logs too many miles on a bike, but man do I love Dr. Mike and these videos! So much weak science on UA-cam. Someone needs to call it out. Thanks Dr. Mike!
You can also achieve enlightenment by standing out in the sunlight first thing in the morning while doing stress breathing techniques. I actually levitate a bit if i am fasted and waited 90 minutes to have my coffee.
Hubermans podcast changed my life for the better. Arming myself with the science helped me achieve the best shape of my life at 35. Accuracy or not, he’s a great presenter of information, and the needle has moved in a positive direction for me.
That doesn't say as much as you think it does. For instance, many people got in better shape due to Greg Doucette, but that doesn't mean he's a great communicator, or knows much about exercise science for that matter.
Hey Dr. Mike, absolute respect for all the videos and teaching, you've quickly become one of my biggest voices for truth in health science of the last year. If I may push back a little on the running and nasal breathing thing. In endurance sports like running we often use breathing through the nose as a fairly accurate litmus test for training in ZONE 2 the Aerobic base building zone. For building a good endurance athlete, about 80% of our training should be in this low stress zone. the clip of DR. Huberman seemed a little out of context so his goal may have been to build Aerobic capacity and not train strength. I wish you all the best and massive respect! Thank you for taking the time to read my response.
thanks for spelling out the over exaggerated benefits of heat and cold exposure. i have a feeling this is another AG1 situation where Huberman is getting a massive kickback to promote it.
Oh yeah definitely. I bet Big Sauna and Big... Plungepool... are paying him a fortune to promote their interests... without mentioning any specific brands...
@Matt_Alaric having a unique take on something (irrespective of validity) is a means to make money in the information age. Skepticism (not paranoia) is vital to wisdom in such an era
Tib raises are great for trail running. I believe that’s why he does it, they are your breaks on the downhills in addition to your quads. Great analysis on Huberman!
@@ryanbrown4053 A woman he was engaged to and doing IVF with discovered 5 other active girlfriends he had, they met up and talked to a journalist together lol
Live your life, you’re not a robot. 99% of a fulfilling life comes from basic fundamentals like family, friends, security, pursuit of passions. All these protocols are for success addicts and have marginal impact on the average person. Eat well, move, lift some heavy things, and spend time with people you love. Most importantly ignore all these propellor hat marketers selling you junk
@@skye1355 I don't even know who this Huberman guy is so I'm not trying to defend him, but it's really not a bunch of random shit. If you're solely looking for hypertrophy and/or strength gains, it's a terrible program. But, he seems to care more about athleticism and longevity, so this kind of program would serve really well for his needs.
@@gokhan4461 Huberman knows what he's talking about. Keyboard warriors just love to pounce the second someone is even slightly wrong about anything and just pretend like they're some evil malicious fool that's scamming and lying. In reality they don't even know half the stuff Huberman has talked about or any of the details and their entire idea of who Huberman is largely imagined.
Love my weighted vest - overlooked and underrated - switch to a lean clean meal plan and walk with a weighted vest - fast safe results for weight loss and tone
Totally depends on how much he's taking. If he's just taking it to put himself at normal T levels then it's not really giving him much advantage over your average person
If he’s such a physiology buff he should figure out how to have good T levels naturally. Or at least fix thyroid levels with meds before going right to T
I love how clowns like him push the "I'm just on HRT to get me back to what I should be at bro" when in reality HRT clinics are now giving out legitimate moderate dose steroid cycles. Hell you can even get things like anavar from them now.
As a runner, Dr. Mike was right on with the VO2 max stuff. Endurance athletes end up with super high VO2 maxes for two reasons. The first is the great majority (~80%) of their training is at Zone 2 in a 5 zone model or Zone 1 in a 3 zone model. That is an *easy* effort. This is beneficial because it is what causes the changes in the heart without the muscle damage from higher intensity workouts. The other 20% is broken up efforts in Zone 4 and 5 that include things like threshold work (becoming more efficient so they can sustain intense efforts better), VO2 max work (usually 3 - 5 minutes of hard work, 95%+ of max HR to grow their aerobic engine), and speed work (not like sprinters, but 100m strides to keep natural speed, 150 - 200m super fast reps with huge recovery, to gain bio mechanical efficiency and neuromuscular adaptations). All of this combined in high volume creates the super high VO2 maxes you see.
I think your the first person I've seen that says you don't gotta breathe through your nose when working out. I remember when my high school track coaches would say "breathe through your nose, out through your mouth" and I'm like "I cannot intake enough air through my nose to prevent me from dying" lol. I could never catch my breath through nose breathing
I think its because for most people, it is more efficient to breath through the nose. Unless you have some sort of chronic nasal congestion or deformity. Breathing from the nose allows for deeper breathing and better oxygen consumption. Mouth breathing is shallow and not as good at getting oxygen into your lungs. It's usually more important for the elderly though since shallow breathing is more problematic than suboptimal sport performance.
Thats a specific use case and awesome to hear. But there are a ways to greatly improve knee health while simultaneously working compound muscles so i think for the average person who cant even put the time to go to the gym, tib raises arent a priority
I think that nasal breathing can be super valuable just as a general gauge to zone 2 cardio. Conversational pace/nasal breathing can make up the majority of your cardio and have amazing cardiovascular benefits while keeping you from gassing out. I just think of it as a simple training tool for establishing your long slow run training pace.
I was going to reply exactly this. It's a great way for me to tell if I'm going beyond zone 2 if I can no longer purely breath through my nose. I'd be interested to know if Dr Mike thinks that the benefits of zone 2 training are overrated (which I would be surprised about).
Yeah for distance running and teaching people distance running I think it is an effective tool. I find when I ran(particularly when I ran all the time in the military) the longer I held on to nasal breathing the better my performance was. I think finding a rhythm and keeping control of your breath rate is more the point of nasal breathing, rather than whatever hokey BS huberman says its for.
Good point really, furthermore with zone2 efforts, my soreness or fatigue is so much lower than when going higher in intensity. Only it´s not working as a zone2 indicator for all people. Some in my running club start mouth breathing the moment they start to run, even fit people. Me on the other hand, I can comfortably nose breathe during lactate threshold runs (zone 4 out of of 5) somehow, only on VO2 max efforts like 5k races I switch to mouth breathing.
I read a very compelling study conducted by a Japanese scientist about cold exposure followed immediately after by 15 minutes of exercise (I think they did stationary cycling to keep it consistent). The affects on their testosterone were actually pretty impressive over a 2 week period and even more so over a 2 month period. I'd be interested in your comment on that specific study on cold exposure followed by movement for test growth.
Strangely enough having a 20 inch neck saved my life, I had a major motorcycle collision a year ago and landed face first on the road, obliterating my helmet on impact, I had zero neck injuries or even pain. Years of weightlifting, football, some boxing and working a job that requires me to look up whilst lifting equipment overhead had given me a thick af neck that probably saved my life. Never skip neck day.
So what Huberman does is shares some anecdotal finding, he read in some article, which has limited scientific findings, but appears to be true, and then presents it as equal to scientific literature, and most people dont know the difference between this and real scientific literature. For example, Mens Health, in some one-off study shows that consuming bananas after a shower, increase hemoglobin by 22% and then he’ll report “research has concluded that if you want to increase hemoglobin you should eat a banana after a shower”
@@Matt_Alaric I am speaking rubbish meanwhile the whole point of Dr Mike’s video is to point stuff like this out -- I am just explaining it differently. Huberman makes a lot of claims that have some suggestive but not solid scientific evidence. For example his support of the “no fap” movement and he had an unuanced understanding of the use of cold plunge and sauna for athletes. Instead of getting emotional over it, use some critical thinking skills instead.
I really don't understand how Huberman has such a huge following?! His podcast on ADHD and other areas similar, ASD and so on are dangerous and not correct. He blames ADHD on phone usage which is utter nonsense, I have it and we didn't even have PC towers when I was younger. Some of what is said is really quite moronic. Thanks for the video Mike 👍
Exactly he extrapolates way too much from theoretical data that he doesn’t understand and gives a half baked clinical application based on an appeal to authority of having a phd he doesn’t even use
Did you just hear that from someone, or did you listen to the episode personally, because your claim is not true?? Most of the episode is about how attention works and the way various drugs work, i found that pretty informative. The phone bit is just a 5 minute segment in a 2 hour podcast And saying that he blames phones is pretty inaccurate, he did not really make a claim that they are causal. He merely brings up the fact that there is some research into how increased level of phone usage can lead to "ADHD-like" attention problems. One brought up study is called "Association between mobile phone use and inattention in 7102 Chinese adolescents: a population-based cross-sectional study" published by Springer, type that into google scholar and have a read for yourself. I know Andrew Huberman can be a bit of a weirdo and i am very critical of the extend of sponsorships on his podcast, so i really do not consider myself a fan, more like sporadic listener, but he is more legit than you seem to think. My suspicion is that someone took that bit out of context and presented as "Huberman blames phones" and then it went on....??
I’m not the biggest Huberman fan, but he did not say phones caused ADHD in the podcast you mentioned. He said that there might be a correlation with the decrease in attention span and increased screen time in young adults/kids and discussed this with the computer science prof at MIT (forgot his name).
@cenkarson777 Exactly. All of these comments I've read through are misinterpreting what they've heard or arguing in bad faith without actually doing any of their own research behind Huberman. There are a few good, valid critiques of him, but the majority of the comments are vitriolic redditors who are shouting "DUDE IVE BEEN SO WAITING FOR THIS!!!" like cringy little midwits waiting for Mike to DESTROY Huberman while doing his EPIC Peterson impression. Don't forget the gossip about his relationships too BRO haha!
Physical therapy student here - Training your neck is really smart. A lot of people get migraines and/or headaches because weak deep neck flexors and/or weak neck extensors.
For boxers, having a really strong neck helps them take harder punches without losing consciousness. Helps keep the head from snapping as much after taking a shot.
@@eliasadam2345 Many years ago, an Olympic cyclist was victim of a brutal hit and run. Only reason, doctors said, she wasn't a quadriplegic was her strong neck muscles protected her.
I’m only 3 minutes in on the video, but I need to point out some facts when it comes to proven science of biology. I totally get what he’s saying when he says it doesn’t matter, he just means get the breath in so you don’t die lol, but humans 100% do benefit from nostril breathing. As both a dental hygienist and an orofacial myofunctional therapist, I would like to remind people that the amount and quality of oxygen your body receives when nostril breathing is superior in comparison to mouth breathing, overall. This WILL be naturally modified from your nervous system if your body is in “flight or flight.” Your body will biologically signal your brain to use oral breathing,in addition to nasal breathing, in times of extreme stress to body. Breathing through the nose creates humidified, warm, cleaned air to the body. You also create the ideal balance of oxygen and nitric oxide for the blood when nostril breathing. So, once the nitric oxide goes in and does its thing, the body will release the oxygen for the blood. Whether you are having a moderate or heavy training session, it’s another good thing that nitric oxide will serve in vasodilation for the blood vessels; therefore decreasing pressure in the heart. We also know your breathing pattern directly affects the heart rate, too. It’s not ideal to constantly tell your nervous system you’re in flight or flight by mouth breathing when it’s not a biological response to a stressor- keep that for when you really need it, i.e. running from a tiger (or leg day, whatever scares you). If you aren’t used to mouth breathing when you train, it is gong to be a challenge when you make awareness to it. Your body will be sensitive to it and you may feel it difficult to get “enough air.” This may be a good clue for you to address some underlying issues such as fascia restrictions around your rib cage and upper chest/back. Give it a try! You may find yourself snoring less, too! Train your tongue to stay on the roof.of the mouth. Life changing for your overall health and wellbeing.
Oral hygienist (not a doctor) and orofacial myofunctional therapist (not a doctor)... They're just inventing bs to bill to insurance companies at this point...
Please do a rant on the Win Hof breathing exercises and the Wim Hof cold therapy cult. I did his breathing exercises everyday for a month in 2016 but wasn't convinced.
I'm not Dr. Mike, but I can tell you that inflammation, chronic injury, and arthritic joints are symptoms of the same cause. Take a serious look at your diet. Do the research and see what foods cause inflammation. Eliminate all from your diet - 100% for a few months at least. If your symptoms abate, you're on the right track. Now add one of your forbidden foods back to your diet and maintain for a couple of months. If symptoms return, then rarely eat that food ever after, and when you do, in small amounts only. Repeat the exercise until you know all the food that causes the symptoms. For me, those foods are sugar and other sweeteners (artificial and natural), wheat-based products and alcohol.
@@gatoryak7332 Thanks...yes we are on the same path! The only one I can't quite shake is coffee...not that it is a classic inflamatory but in my case I can just feel it! That and I need more sleep. I reccommend frozen blueberries and milk if you never tried it!
@@sambonfield3188 I quit coffee with the help of MUD\WTR, which is a mushroom and spice brew. There is a little bit of caffeine in it, but the effect is WAY better than coffee. I add unrefined coconut oil to it to make it even more delicious and satisfying. I'm starting to wean off of MUD\WTR now, too, because I think no caffeine will be even better than a little caffeine. I found a similar mushroom blend without the tea powder. If I feel a hankering for caffeine in the PM, I take a spoonful of C8 oil for instant relief. My brain loves that. C8 is refined from coconut oil. It is brain fuel, but not a stimulant. I make a protein smoothie with whey powder and frozen blueberries. Sleep remains a challenge. I recently made huge gains in sleep quality by setting my thermostat during the night at 68. It seems silly to cool my room to the point where I need to use a blanket, but it makes a difference. I'm going to experiment with even cooler, but that will require me to go with a heavier blanket which is hard for me to do when the summer and fall days are so friggin' hot.
look into and read a bout peptides and hormone replacement.. Especially Growth hormone..... i'mnot a doctor but there are things,, NOT DRUGS to mask the pain... but peptides can HEAL you growth hormone can help old wounds....
What I found out is that anything Andrew Huberman says is for people who live with their parents. Ain't no way a working person has the time to do all of that.
What a weird generalization to make lol. There’s definitely enough time in a 40 hour work week to maintain other habits and interests. Especially so if you’re actually efficient with your time. I would agree when it comes to those working more than that or that have children though.
Tib raises helped me a lot when I started rucking / using a weighted vest during cardio. I was getting shin pain initially and even just getting a stretch in them before and after felt much better.
You and Hubermann should do a podcast together. I am listening to you both and I guess you two combined would create a highly concentrate of information bomb overload.
12:56 when he talks about the relationship between neck training and the spine, you laugh it off Dr Mike but it's actually a big deal. I've been training for many years but never bothered to train my neck. One day I got a herniated disk in my cervical area. Let me tell you it's not fun. The compression on nerves C5 to C7 leads to constant excruciating back, shoulder & arm pain, not to mention soreness in the fingers. It takes months to recover from. So yeah guys... Don't laugh it off. Train your neck
I love the deadpan humour in these videos - & him taking the P155 out of Huberman - makes me laugh out loud sometimes. He knows his fitness too! 100% right about Aussies Rules being called “footy”- great observation. We also refer to soccer - & US football is gridiron. Aussies Rules is called football but is often referred to as “footy”. FYI you may also hear it referred to as “AFL” but that is the name of the main national league (a bit like NFL) - rather than the name itself
I listen to some of Huberman's podcasts and most of them I don't finish because as a poor pleb, I've gotta fkn work at an actual job and don't have a posh lifestyle that can afford me the luxury of doing Huberman's bs workouts. Thank you for keeping it real & the ungodly roar of laughter I had when you mentioned men's balls in the sauna.
the early stuff from his podcasts, where he was talking about sleep, recovery, focus, etc, were the best. I think I stopped listening after a bout a year of his podcasts, since after that it just seemed to become more and more meaningless nonsense that is 0% applicable to my life. I guess he's gotta talk about something to keep those ad dollars coming in, so might as well bullshit about some niche nonsense.
Not sure if anyone has gone off on this slight tangent yet 😅 but "football" is indeed called soccer here in Australia and in New Zealand. Australia's national men's team is even called the Socceroos. As rightly pointed out "footy" here is something else: Australian Rules Football - a game that would be worthy of a video on its own, coz it's one hell of a game with some very fit players. It even makes rugby look tame and that's some big talk coming from a Kiwi who grew up watching the All Blacks 😅 Anywho, im a newbie here, but loving the channel so far, keep up the awesome work! 😊
Based on what? Isn't he just sharing his own personal workout plan? Do you think he's recommending it to people and placing his doctoral authority behind it?
How so? I don't get why people are saying this about him as if he's pretending to be something he's not. He clearly says what his field is, sites his sources, is open to changing his mind and is transparent as to what is clear in the research and what isn't, you don't need to be a doctor to read research papers. And this video is merely his own workout program, he gave it for free and did not at any point say or implicate that others should copy it

Your PHD has really gotten to your head more than the needles you've been using for your own growth. You're critiquing a man who at least comes off as all natural compared to you sir who have without a doubt been using anabolic steroids for years. I think you're self consumed with your "expertise" when it comes to cold and heat exposure considering all the information backing the benefits of it. Kudos on your PHD sir but please pick your "victims" with more thought into it. You sounds simply silly in comparison to Huberman who dwarfs you in brain function. Most of your recovery is coming from the needles you're jabbing bud. Obviously you're putting in the gym work but without that jab you know you would be wrecked and father time never loses. Serious question, do you target individuals that are much higher in every aspect of society than you in hopes that it might give you a slight boost to their level even with the disadvantage of making yourself sound incredibly stupid?
Q
I can relate to Huberman. I only train legs once every other week because I have a genetic abnormality where I don't like training legs
More like generic normality))
good one, I do them regularly but just kinda don’t put my soul into it unlike the upper body
@g7majoh125 I change up the legs more as I've grown away from traditional training a bit. I do one heavy leg day day on Wednesday and on Saturday I do hill sprints and finish with some heavy sled pushes and pulls as my second leg day.
Guess I’m the weird one of the weird ones cause I’ve always had amazing calf’s and never train them. Not once and they look like a sculpture attached to a big blob from there up.
Legs are the only muscle group that reliably causes me to have peak heart rate followed quickly by nausea.
Thanks for sharing my program as its worked for me (for last 33 years; with some modifications/additions) and I’ve seen it work for a lot of other people as well. Would be fun to have a chat and/or train.

My issue with Huberman, etc is two fold: 1) they use a credential from a specific field (Neuroscience in his case) as authority to speak on everything. 2) They quickly slip into promoting stuff with questionable benefits because no one would watch if they just said "eat better and work out regularly".
Yeah. As an actual physician, I'll tell you he's guessing much of the time and is actually a snake oil salesman who wears nicer clothes than most snake oil salesman. Same as Paul S. Peter Atia is a bit better, but he still tends to speak way beyond his scope of knowledge.

Nice to see someone critique Huberman. The guy comes across (to me) as a “listen to me I know everything” kind of guy that doesn’t actually know everything. In all the interviews I see him in, people never seem to challenge him but instead have this look of awe on their faces like everything he says is gospel.
He's a grifter. No different than all the other talking heads. The venn diagram of cucks in this comment section simping for Huberman and idiots that love Jordan Petersen is a straight up circle.
exactly
He comes across exactly the opposite to me. A pretty humble guy and will listen to different opinions. I m not sure how you can come to that conclusion.
This sounds more like soy dogma to me. Have you ever considered listening to him rather than getting your opinions from Redditors?
He is a great person and science folk and u are dumb
He was doing six every week, but that article forced him to break up with few of them
😅
Lmao my sister, Kerry, wrote that piece on Huberman. Was not expecting that crossover here.
Huberman has admitted to being on TRT... which is odd that he would ever need it in the first place given how supposedly dialed in he is. Maybe, just maybe, his training "protocols" have a relatively small effect compared to blasting exogenous hormones.
Blasting? Do you know his dosages?
TRT is a legal medically administered low testosterone treatment to bring it back to normal levels. It's not the same as "blasting steroids"
@@dylandeane5237 I do not know his dosages. I know he's publicly claimed he "microdoses" to 1400 ng/dL. He also publicly claimed to be in a committed relationship with one woman. There seems to be a gap between what he says he does and what he actually does.
He is 48 where it is normal for people to start using TRT no? Wouldnt it just be better then to try and optimize his health even more by doing the extra stuff that he does?
@@dashrirprock being on TRT isn't "blasting exogenous hormones" I guess you really are a fan of his lol kind of butthurt, but why?

I have to disagree with you Dr. Mike on the nasal breathing portion, if you are strictly jogging for say cardiovascular fitness (i.e. engine building) and you cannot sustain a certain pace because you're trying to keep a zone 2 heart rate, a good portion of runners will say "to slow down breathe through your nose" this way your body has to naturally slow down in order to keep the sustained pace. I understand what you're saying in regards to "not trying hard enough" but if you're doing an RPE 2-3 run it's completely okay to keep a lower intensity. I don't have any specific credentials I've just ran a few ultra marathons.
Yes, you're absolutely right. But this channel isn't for endurance training.
Thought the same thing. Nasal breathing is a good indicator that you are in Zone 2, which is important in endurance training; but this is not his level of expertise.
@@kleitosaliagas5668 Zone 2 is for more than just endurance training. It is also good for fat-burning. It also improves performance the higher aerobic zones. I know these are not Mike's scope. That's why I watch Mike for chuckles, not for fitness advice.
I breath in through my nose and out through my mouth like I was taught. This keeps your breathing good while running long distances
@@thedakotalogs Thank you for keeping my breathing good.
I love it when Mike sticks up for all of us mouth breathers 🙏😘
🤫🧏
what he said is bs lol
Read Breath by James Nestor
I don't think he's saying mouth breathing is good when not playing sports (don't know what his opinion on it is), he was purely talking about breathing through your mouth during intense exercise.
I think it’s because huberman said he exclusively breathed in and out through the nose. Although I might’ve heard wrong. Nasal breathing sounds like in through nose out through nose. Should always breathe in through nose out through mouth for optimal oxygen production.
16:58 "the Tuesday was just the hot & cold shit" 😂 Brilliant.

I love how educational this channel is, im improving way faster than when i started out trying to train like goku and vegeta
just gotta hope he's right cuz he doesn't cite sources just kinda says opinions sometimes

Big track guy here, speaking on “tib raises” 😂
They are very helpful on a perspective of athletic endurance and longevity for season after season of running and sprinting to help either ease or avoid shin splints entirely.
I had severe shin splints for 2 years, training the ol’ tibs in the off season was great 👍
@bmccaffe76 To be honest I’m not sure what other benefits they have other than the benefits regarding shin splints. I’m mainly just speaking for my experience and how they helped.
I did them weighted (raising the weight while sitting down) and unweighted (standing up leaning on a wall)
This channel is completely geared toward bodybuilding, and he regularly gives advice that elite runners do the opposite of
Kneesovertoesguy always talks about this!
@@youtubeviewer8968 I agree; I noticed that too. Everything he says is purely from a hypertrophy perspective
@@laneythelame That's where I learned to start doing them and really got a lot of benefit along with doing the backwards treadmill walk. Had pretty bad knee pain but those exercises coupled with a stretch routine really got me out of that funk.
I think the rationale behind heavy tibialis raises is that because the tibialis is primarily used for absorbing the shock from your footfalls while running/jumping, having excess strength in that muscle will prevent wear on the knees; the goal is about athleticism and longevity, not visible hypertrophy. It's the same principle behind how you often say that if you can deadlift 200lbs, then doing something banal like picking up your baby has basically no chance to hurt you.
Yeah, I think Dr. Mike’s perspective on everything is from the angle of hypertrophy, which I understand, that’s his topic, but the vast majority of people are just thinking of being fit and healthy and active for as long as possible. I think he should sometimes point that out more clearly. His whole thing is building muscle, but that doesn’t really equal health.
Ok but wouldn’t that muscle be strengthened by running for 75-90 minutes with a weighted vest?
By the way I want to call bullshit on that. How does he only run once a week and have that endurance for it?
@@AlphanumericCharacters I'm sure he didn't worked up to that endurance by only running once a week. Try running every other day for a few years. Then drop that to once a week. You'll find that your endurance doesn't just go away. Especially if you do other kinds of training between those sessions. I know a lot of guys who only run on mondays (met them at my local park while doing the same thing), and they run for at least an hour with no problem. One of them is 55 years old. We're not talking about sprinting for 90 minutes, slow jog is very doable for 90 minutes.
Hypothetically yes but how much does one need to actually train this to get max benefit?
@@anamarkov3952i don’t think tib raises are the make it or break it of longevity
I train full body workout every other day. 20 mins cardio & 50 mins weight training. 3 sets of 10 reps.

Two points:
1. “Doesn’t he have a job?” I agree with you. It’s clear he prioritizes his training and that’s awesome. Unfortunately, the general population’s priorities aren’t aligned enough to be able to maintain such a schedule consistently.
2. I’ve been doing cold exposure for 8 years and I can say that the biggest effect it has had and the reason I continue it, is mental. Sure, it has its calming effect (which I think you could benefit from, especially during your high dose phases/cycles, at least putting your face in ice water) but more about challenging your discipline. There’s little to nothing else that challenges your discipline more than waking up from your warm and cozy bed and choosing to get into cold water. Starts your day with a win that gains momentum.

@@11jerans Never said it was the hardest…reread it. Sounds like you could learn to deal with your own stress better, instead of projecting it on others. Good luck.

To paraphrase his explanation, "You might be saying, ''Peter, you idiot. How do you not know about this?'. Well, obviously, I did know about this, I just ignored it.".
There's a lot Peter Attia does not know. He has zero evidence that 2.2 g/kg/day of protein is good for longevity. It might be okay for a 20 year old bodybuilder, but not the 50 yo grandma.

Hey Dr. Mike, absolute respect for all the videos and teaching, you've quickly become one of my biggest voices for truth in health science of the last year. If I may push back a little on the running and nasal breathing thing. In endurance sports like running we often use breathing through the nose as a fairly accurate litmus test for training in ZONE 2 the Aerobic base building zone. For building a good endurance athlete, about 80% of our training should be in this low stress zone. the clip of DR. Huberman seemed a little out of context so his goal may have been to build Aerobic capacity and not train strength.

There is something amazing about that
He admittedly takes HRT. That helps you understand why he can work out muscles once a week...
Totally depends on how much he's taking. If he's just taking it to put himself at normal T levels then it's not really giving him much advantage over your average person
@@elobiretv He says he has it above normal levels. He is pretty honest about it.
If he’s such a physiology buff he should figure out how to have good T levels naturally. Or at least fix thyroid levels with meds before going right to T
I love how clowns like him push the "I'm just on HRT to get me back to what I should be at bro" when in reality HRT clinics are now giving out legitimate moderate dose steroid cycles. Hell you can even get things like anavar from them now.
@@elobiretvthat's not how TRT works
It does more than just put you back in normal range. It's a steroid cycle.
As a runner, Dr. Mike was right on with the VO2 max stuff. Endurance athletes end up with super high VO2 maxes for two reasons. The first is the great majority (~80%) of their training is at Zone 2 in a 5 zone model or Zone 1 in a 3 zone model. That is an *easy* effort. This is beneficial because it is what causes the changes in the heart without the muscle damage from higher intensity workouts. The other 20% is broken up efforts in Zone 4 and 5 that include things like threshold work (becoming more efficient so they can sustain intense efforts better), VO2 max work (usually 3 - 5 minutes of hard work, 95%+ of max HR to grow their aerobic engine), and speed work (not like sprinters, but 100m strides to keep natural speed, 150 - 200m super fast reps with huge recovery, to gain bio mechanical efficiency and neuromuscular adaptations). All of this combined in high volume creates the super high VO2 maxes you see.
I think your the first person I've seen that says you don't gotta breathe through your nose when working out. I remember when my high school track coaches would say "breathe through your nose, out through your mouth" and I'm like "I cannot intake enough air through my nose to prevent me from dying" lol. I could never catch my breath through nose breathing
What about boxing? Wouldn't mouth breathing leave your jaw more vulnerable.
The Army tells you same thing. In through the nose, out through the mouth. I can see how some people may not be able to do that tho
I think its because for most people, it is more efficient to breath through the nose. Unless you have some sort of chronic nasal congestion or deformity.
Breathing from the nose allows for deeper breathing and better oxygen consumption. Mouth breathing is shallow and not as good at getting oxygen into your lungs.
It's usually more important for the elderly though since shallow breathing is more problematic than suboptimal sport performance.

Tib raises definitely helped the knees for me.
Yeah I find if I don't do them then I will experience a lot of pain in my knees and other joints after doing heavy cardio
Thats a specific use case and awesome to hear. But there are a ways to greatly improve knee health while simultaneously working compound muscles so i think for the average person who cant even put the time to go to the gym, tib raises arent a priority
@@DawgFL compound leg movements usually instigate knee pain...
I love tib raises. Especially doing super sets with calf raises.
@@DawgFL what compound movements? I’ve never found one that does what tib raises do.
I think that nasal breathing can be super valuable just as a general gauge to zone 2 cardio. Conversational pace/nasal breathing can make up the majority of your cardio and have amazing cardiovascular benefits while keeping you from gassing out. I just think of it as a simple training tool for establishing your long slow run training pace.
I was going to reply exactly this. It's a great way for me to tell if I'm going beyond zone 2 if I can no longer purely breath through my nose. I'd be interested to know if Dr Mike thinks that the benefits of zone 2 training are overrated (which I would be surprised about).
Agree - it's a tool for controlling your pace for distance runners.
Yeah for distance running and teaching people distance running I think it is an effective tool. I find when I ran(particularly when I ran all the time in the military) the longer I held on to nasal breathing the better my performance was. I think finding a rhythm and keeping control of your breath rate is more the point of nasal breathing, rather than whatever hokey BS huberman says its for.
Hard agree. I use nasal breathing as a pacer and it works fantastically.
Good point really, furthermore with zone2 efforts, my soreness or fatigue is so much lower than when going higher in intensity.
Only it´s not working as a zone2 indicator for all people. Some in my running club start mouth breathing the moment they start to run, even fit people.
Me on the other hand, I can comfortably nose breathe during lactate threshold runs (zone 4 out of of 5) somehow, only on VO2 max efforts like 5k races I switch to mouth breathing.
I read a very compelling study conducted by a Japanese scientist about cold exposure followed immediately after by 15 minutes of exercise (I think they did stationary cycling to keep it consistent). The affects on their testosterone were actually pretty impressive over a 2 week period and even more so over a 2 month period. I'd be interested in your comment on that specific study on cold exposure followed by movement for test growth.
It cracks me up when I get a UA-cam Vshred ad for one of RP videos
that peterson impression was way better than expected
Strangely enough having a 20 inch neck saved my life, I had a major motorcycle collision a year ago and landed face first on the road, obliterating my helmet on impact, I had zero neck injuries or even pain. Years of weightlifting, football, some boxing and working a job that requires me to look up whilst lifting equipment overhead had given me a thick af neck that probably saved my life. Never skip neck day.
So what Huberman does is shares some anecdotal finding, he read in some article, which has limited scientific findings, but appears to be true, and then presents it as equal to scientific literature, and most people dont know the difference between this and real scientific literature.
For example, Mens Health, in some one-off study shows that consuming bananas after a shower, increase hemoglobin by 22% and then he’ll report “research has concluded that if you want to increase hemoglobin you should eat a banana after a shower”
Specifically which of his recommendations are you claiming are anecdotal? Cos i think you're talking complete rubbish.
@@Matt_Alaric He's not gonna let you smash bro.
@@Matt_Alaric Dr Andrea Love wrote an excellent article on Dr Huberman. Worth check out!
@@Matt_Alaric I am speaking rubbish meanwhile the whole point of Dr Mike’s video is to point stuff like this out -- I am just explaining it differently.
Huberman makes a lot of claims that have some suggestive but not solid scientific evidence. For example his support of the “no fap” movement and he had an unuanced understanding of the use of cold plunge and sauna for athletes. Instead of getting emotional over it, use some critical thinking skills instead.
Exactly. Extrapolating theoretical data to a made up clinical application and refuses to elaborate
I really don't understand how Huberman has such a huge following?! His podcast on ADHD and other areas similar, ASD and so on are dangerous and not correct.
He blames ADHD on phone usage which is utter nonsense, I have it and we didn't even have PC towers when I was younger.
Some of what is said is really quite moronic.
Thanks for the video Mike 👍
He's been on Rogan's podcast 2 or 3 times, hence the huge following.
Loads of bollocks from this guy.
Exactly he extrapolates way too much from theoretical data that he doesn’t understand and gives a half baked clinical application based on an appeal to authority of having a phd he doesn’t even use
Did you just hear that from someone, or did you listen to the episode personally, because your claim is not true??
Most of the episode is about how attention works and the way various drugs work, i found that pretty informative. The phone bit is just a 5 minute segment in a 2 hour podcast
And saying that he blames phones is pretty inaccurate, he did not really make a claim that they are causal.
He merely brings up the fact that there is some research into how increased level of phone usage can lead to "ADHD-like" attention problems.
One brought up study is called "Association between mobile phone use and inattention in 7102 Chinese adolescents: a population-based cross-sectional study"
published by Springer, type that into google scholar and have a read for yourself.
I know Andrew Huberman can be a bit of a weirdo and i am very critical of the extend of sponsorships on his podcast, so i really do not consider myself a fan, more like sporadic listener, but he is more legit than you seem to think.
My suspicion is that someone took that bit out of context and presented as "Huberman blames phones" and then it went on....??
I’m not the biggest Huberman fan, but he did not say phones caused ADHD in the podcast you mentioned. He said that there might be a correlation with the decrease in attention span and increased screen time in young adults/kids and discussed this with the computer science prof at MIT (forgot his name).
@cenkarson777 Exactly. All of these comments I've read through are misinterpreting what they've heard or arguing in bad faith without actually doing any of their own research behind Huberman. There are a few good, valid critiques of him, but the majority of the comments are vitriolic redditors who are shouting "DUDE IVE BEEN SO WAITING FOR THIS!!!" like cringy little midwits waiting for Mike to DESTROY Huberman while doing his EPIC Peterson impression. Don't forget the gossip about his relationships too BRO haha!
Physical therapy student here - Training your neck is really smart. A lot of people get migraines and/or headaches because weak deep neck flexors and/or weak neck extensors.
For boxers, having a really strong neck helps them take harder punches without losing consciousness. Helps keep the head from snapping as much after taking a shot.
@@eliasadam2345 Ok the more you know! Thanks!
@@eliasadam2345 Many years ago, an Olympic cyclist was victim of a brutal hit and run. Only reason, doctors said, she wasn't a quadriplegic was her strong neck muscles protected her.
Motorsports also need to do necks.
The stress on your neck from the helmet can be a bugger.
Also maybe even the standard motorcyclist would benifit.
I’m only 3 minutes in on the video, but I need to point out some facts when it comes to proven science of biology. I totally get what he’s saying when he says it doesn’t matter, he just means get the breath in so you don’t die lol, but humans 100% do benefit from nostril breathing. As both a dental hygienist and an orofacial myofunctional therapist, I would like to remind people that the amount and quality of oxygen your body receives when nostril breathing is superior in comparison to mouth breathing, overall. This WILL be naturally modified from your nervous system if your body is in “flight or flight.” Your body will biologically signal your brain to use oral breathing,in addition to nasal breathing, in times of extreme stress to body.
Breathing through the nose creates humidified, warm, cleaned air to the body. You also create the ideal balance of oxygen and nitric oxide for the blood when nostril breathing. So, once the nitric oxide goes in and does its thing, the body will release the oxygen for the blood. Whether you are having a moderate or heavy training session, it’s another good thing that nitric oxide will serve in vasodilation for the blood vessels; therefore decreasing pressure in the heart.
We also know your breathing pattern directly affects the heart rate, too. It’s not ideal to constantly tell your nervous system you’re in flight or flight by mouth breathing when it’s not a biological response to a stressor- keep that for when you really need it, i.e. running from a tiger (or leg day, whatever scares you).
If you aren’t used to mouth breathing when you train, it is gong to be a challenge when you make awareness to it. Your body will be sensitive to it and you may feel it difficult to get “enough air.” This may be a good clue for you to address some underlying issues such as fascia restrictions around your rib cage and upper chest/back.
Give it a try! You may find yourself snoring less, too! Train your tongue to stay on the roof.of the mouth. Life changing for your overall health and wellbeing.
Oral hygienist (not a doctor) and orofacial myofunctional therapist (not a doctor)... They're just inventing bs to bill to insurance companies at this point...
Please do a rant on the Win Hof breathing exercises and the Wim Hof cold therapy cult. I did his breathing exercises everyday for a month in 2016 but wasn't convinced.
Apparently his twin brother performs the same feats without the breathing exercises
He is ripping off ancient breathing techniques, using them for the wrong purposes then claiming he made them up himself lol
@@bobbyologun1517he has twin bro?
@@yoeyyoey8937 andre hof!
Win is a con man, I agree in the term cult. The guy has a genetic abnormality, he's not even cold on the ice
Huge fan here, спасибо Mike.
Hey Dr Mike, idea for you: would you please give advice on muscle growth for people with inflammation, chronic injury or arthritic joints?
I'm not Dr. Mike, but I can tell you that inflammation, chronic injury, and arthritic joints are symptoms of the same cause. Take a serious look at your diet. Do the research and see what foods cause inflammation. Eliminate all from your diet - 100% for a few months at least. If your symptoms abate, you're on the right track. Now add one of your forbidden foods back to your diet and maintain for a couple of months. If symptoms return, then rarely eat that food ever after, and when you do, in small amounts only. Repeat the exercise until you know all the food that causes the symptoms. For me, those foods are sugar and other sweeteners (artificial and natural), wheat-based products and alcohol.
@@gatoryak7332 Thanks...yes we are on the same path! The only one I can't quite shake is coffee...not that it is a classic inflamatory but in my case I can just feel it! That and I need more sleep. I reccommend frozen blueberries and milk if you never tried it!
@@sambonfield3188 I quit coffee with the help of MUD\WTR, which is a mushroom and spice brew. There is a little bit of caffeine in it, but the effect is WAY better than coffee. I add unrefined coconut oil to it to make it even more delicious and satisfying. I'm starting to wean off of MUD\WTR now, too, because I think no caffeine will be even better than a little caffeine. I found a similar mushroom blend without the tea powder. If I feel a hankering for caffeine in the PM, I take a spoonful of C8 oil for instant relief. My brain loves that. C8 is refined from coconut oil. It is brain fuel, but not a stimulant.
I make a protein smoothie with whey powder and frozen blueberries.
Sleep remains a challenge. I recently made huge gains in sleep quality by setting my thermostat during the night at 68. It seems silly to cool my room to the point where I need to use a blanket, but it makes a difference. I'm going to experiment with even cooler, but that will require me to go with a heavier blanket which is hard for me to do when the summer and fall days are so friggin' hot.
look into and read a bout peptides and hormone replacement.. Especially Growth hormone..... i'mnot a doctor but there are things,, NOT DRUGS to mask the pain... but peptides can HEAL you growth hormone can help old wounds....
@@adamdrozdowski7786 thank you)
Thank you for going into detail about cold plunges.
😂
Appreciate the Peter Attia note at the end. That guy is outstanding.
What I found out is that anything Andrew Huberman says is for people who live with their parents. Ain't no way a working person has the time to do all of that.
What a weird generalization to make lol. There’s definitely enough time in a 40 hour work week to maintain other habits and interests. Especially so if you’re actually efficient with your time. I would agree when it comes to those working more than that or that have children though.
Just say you are lazy and want to watch netflix when you get home from work.
@@TyaColo amazing concept: some people have work at work.
@@TyaColodo you have time to do a 3 hour cold plunge and ruck to the top of a mountain every week, on top of your other workouts and stuff?
@@elevate000who tf has time for a 3 hour cold plunge every week? Get a life
Tib raises helped me a lot when I started rucking / using a weighted vest during cardio. I was getting shin pain initially and even just getting a stretch in them before and after felt much better.
You and Hubermann should do a podcast together. I am listening to you both and I guess you two combined would create a highly concentrate of information bomb overload.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOREVER
Fr
Can you do a video on the Kurzgesagt - we need to rethink exercise video?
Good idea
From what I remember from the video dr mike has said many of the same things.
I second this
Nice
.... they literally just released this exact title on their channel....
12:56 when he talks about the relationship between neck training and the spine, you laugh it off Dr Mike but it's actually a big deal.
I've been training for many years but never bothered to train my neck. One day I got a herniated disk in my cervical area. Let me tell you it's not fun. The compression on nerves C5 to C7 leads to constant excruciating back, shoulder & arm pain, not to mention soreness in the fingers. It takes months to recover from.
So yeah guys... Don't laugh it off. Train your neck
I love the deadpan humour in these videos - & him taking the P155 out of Huberman - makes me laugh out loud sometimes. He knows his fitness too! 100% right about Aussies Rules being called “footy”- great observation. We also refer to soccer - & US football is gridiron. Aussies Rules is called football but is often referred to as “footy”. FYI you may also hear it referred to as “AFL” but that is the name of the main national league (a bit like NFL) - rather than the name itself
I listen to some of Huberman's podcasts and most of them I don't finish because as a poor pleb, I've gotta fkn work at an actual job and don't have a posh lifestyle that can afford me the luxury of doing Huberman's bs workouts. Thank you for keeping it real & the ungodly roar of laughter I had when you mentioned men's balls in the sauna.
Exactly it’s always “here’s the benefits of some hipster rich guy routine cause I have too much time on my hands”
I listen to them while doing the dishes at the Mexican restaurant I work at.
the early stuff from his podcasts, where he was talking about sleep, recovery, focus, etc, were the best. I think I stopped listening after a bout a year of his podcasts, since after that it just seemed to become more and more meaningless nonsense that is 0% applicable to my life. I guess he's gotta talk about something to keep those ad dollars coming in, so might as well bullshit about some niche nonsense.
You mean you don't have 20 minutes to sit under a red light in the dark, doing nothing?
@@thecray did that stuff actually help you out? Like do you still implement the info?
Not sure if anyone has gone off on this slight tangent yet 😅 but "football" is indeed called soccer here in Australia and in New Zealand. Australia's national men's team is even called the Socceroos. As rightly pointed out "footy" here is something else: Australian Rules Football - a game that would be worthy of a video on its own, coz it's one hell of a game with some very fit players. It even makes rugby look tame and that's some big talk coming from a Kiwi who grew up watching the All Blacks 😅 Anywho, im a newbie here, but loving the channel so far, keep up the awesome work! 😊
Andrew Huberman seems to think if you’re a Dr. of one thing you’re a Dr. of all things.
im similar, i seem to think if i watch dr who then i know it all too.
in fact i must be right, because i know a shil when i see it
Based on what? Isn't he just sharing his own personal workout plan? Do you think he's recommending it to people and placing his doctoral authority behind it?
How so? I don't get why people are saying this about him as if he's pretending to be something he's not. He clearly says what his field is, sites his sources, is open to changing his mind and is transparent as to what is clear in the research and what isn't, you don't need to be a doctor to read research papers. And this video is merely his own workout program, he gave it for free and did not at any point say or implicate that others should copy it
Including be a "Dr" of creepy towards women
14:40 god i want to see mike trolling peterson on his podcast
Love your content! I like Dr. Huberman, KneesOverToesGuy (Ben Patrick, Jeff Nippard, and Jordan Peterson! lol I am enjoying your honest take and refreshing perspective. New subscriber here!

Pretty sure the differences/benefits of nasal compared to mouth breathing are readily documented. Check out Nestor’s book Breathe for more.
