Dr. Mike had tons more to say about Chris' Training! Extended and Uncensored episodes available to our members! bit.ly/37esL8i
Dr. Mike why do you prioritize quad activation positioning on the leg press over the positioning that prioritizes the glutes???
what did he mean with bad girl? is the other machine bad
Says who?
@@Naldo411for bigger quads......
@@jagmbaksvshshHe was referring to the abductor machine where the concentric phase constitutes spreading the legs farther apart.
I feel a mind-muscle connection to Dr Mike’s videos.
I as well feel one specifically somewhere in the lower body
Who is this guy. This is a God tier comment
I read comments for this kind of comments
@@VirtualDemoOG fr 😂
Oh that’s weird. I just feel it in my pecker
I think the fact that you can go from sequestering metabolites to unhinged good girl bad girl anecdotes is what makes these videos so great. 😂
That's what keeps me coming back
what did he mean with bad girl? is the other machine bad
@@jagmbaksvshsh Nah it's a great exercise, he called it that because the other machine (abductor machine) involves you opening your legs against resistance, rather than closing them lol.
@@jagmbaksvshsh anti-putang machine
Haha thank you, thank you. - Dr. Mike
Dr. Mike is one of the very few people that has enough credibility to critique a 5x Mr. Olympia.
Mike is not even a pro.
If cbum did all of what Mike said Mike would still critique the lack of pure lengthened partials.
Edit: this is based on what he said regarding Jared turning pro. It boosted Jared’s credibility a lot. Mike simply lacks that
Hahaha good point
Very VERY few 💪🏽
@@soonaherobeing a pro doesn’t give you a right to critique, a PHD in sports science with a lot of experience coaching pros does…
@@3h0wn3dm8 I'm just trying to figure out how to get those mummy abs
That Greg Doucette impression killed me 💀
I peed a little
Same! 😂
Every time!
So funny 😂😂😂
Whats the beef?
Someone said the way he’s sitting at the desk makes him look like a buff baby and I cannot unsee it now
"You're not CBum, you're A Bum" - Dom Mazzetti
Sometimes we B Bum(s).
B Cum
"Right now you're just A bum, if you want to Bcum Cbum you gotta hit the juice"
@@TheArchiver I believe it was Ghandi who said that.
The pausing at the bottom of the adductor exercise and then letting the weight take you a bit deeper, is actually a stretching technique that we use regularly in Physiotherapy. It's part of the PNF techniques. 👍
Contract relax my g
Can you do more critiques of bodybuilders like John Meadows, Jay Cutler, etc.? I know critiquing celebrities probably gets more views, but the information in these types of videos is so much better!
I think that would risk making him a unpopular in his own circles. You don't want to be the guy constantly criticising all of your colleagues. That may burn a lot of bridges. And John Meadows is dead, so it would be seen as rather a low blow to criticise the workout advice of someone who isn't there to defend himself and who was generally well-liked by pretty much everyone. Not worth it.
You can go and watch Jay's videos to see for yourself it is majority good genetics and steroids and his work out is nothing out of ordinary and 99.9% population would not get those results even with roids.
@@alaron5698besides that, his criticism here is marginal, so you are better off, generally speaking, just following the bs and training videos. This criticism here is only relevant for top level or advanced lifters. For me, a very much less experienced guy in the gym, this video is just the steps for perfecting technique and training, but not majorly as significant as sleeping well to recover muscle is, for instance.
Didn't Mr. Meadows past away last yr?
@@deaddoggyinc I think it was the year before.
I tried your way of training legs (squats, legpress) (full range, pause, control on the way down and up), with less weight, it's been 4 days still have difficulty walking to the point where I could barely get to work. I squat 2-3 times a week, but nothing destroyed me like this.
Haha I'm sorry! - Dr. Mike
How many exercises and sets did you do?
Soreness doesnt mean anything. You can load up on a wall sit and do that over and over for ur workout and youll be sore as fuck but ur not gaining any mass.
@@ryanlowe7315incredibly flawed take. You dont need to be sore to grow, that is true.. But to say that soreness doesnt mean anything? False in so many ways.
@@FINsoininen I'm guessing he just meant that soreness alone isn't an indicator of an effective workout... however if you're progressively overloading and working close to failure you're going to grow... and you're also going to get sore
I would love to see a response/react from Chris
Why would he is a waist of time
Chris responded on instagram and he called Mike some words but Mike liked it since he is a masochist and wants Chris to do stuff to him
@@dontw4gt LMAO, any link?
@@yannickwillems1991 dude what
a waist of time? not a chest of time? @@yannickwillems1991
Could it be possible that peak contraction training improves the mind muscle connection on stage? Flexing is essentially just peak contractions, so it might be good specificity training.
Awesome question
Don’t remember who talked about it, might’ve been Joni shrieves but it was something along the lines as bodybuilding for competition should essentially be training for posing, so you should be focusing on movements and training that put you in positions to flex muscles in similar ways to being on stage.
I think it has more to do with a MMC, especially that he is doing leg extensions as the first quad exercise. Not only to prefatigue them, but as well work on the MMC for that specific session. But will make posing easier too, true to that.
I was thinking this same thing, does focusing on the contraction and holding it improve posing? One thing most the audience doesn’t understand is just how hard it is to pose on stage for so long, shit is so exhausting
possibly also on the margins regional hypertrophy and lower risk of injury being warmer for lengthened stuff later
The new editing trick where RP changes the tempo & pauses these athletes during work (or, alternatively Mike or Jared perform the move) to demonstrate the preferred tweaks is really helpful. Love it! Waiting for new RP content feels a little like waiting for a new 'Family Matters' to drop on a Friday night in the 90s.
Hey Dr Mike, you know what might be really sweet? Your own tier list for SFR exercises. I think that would be so good.
Seconded
I totally hear that. My reservations about such a list are that:
1.) My list is for me and is unlikely to carry over to others because SFR is very individual.
2.) My list changes all the time as exercises get stale and others refresh, so I'd even disagree with my own list!
- Dr. Mike
@@RenaissancePeriodizationit sounds like this would be an evolving list that you could talk about on a regular basis.
@@carolg6598 Sounds more like content he's not willing to push out if it's not for the benefit of the viewer. There's no benefit to know that he loved doing one exercise and now he doesn't because he got bored with it.
For me, this is the best ~ most useful ~ critique video you’ve done. The explanation of form tips, backed by research, could be invaluable for newer (or less clever!) trainees. My son is just starting lifting and this is one I will definitely make him watch. 👋👋👋
I didn't know that I needed the adductors explanation so much.
You are my hero, greetings from Spain.
I think this breakdown shows that its not the most precise technique that makes you the best in the world its the dedication to the training, recovery, and nutrition that makes you the best
Got my degree in exercise science and I’m currently working as a personal trainer and I learn so much about ques and techniques from watching your videos! Thank you!!
Mike, thank you for all of this free information on training practices. I’ve gotten to the point in my training that just lifting weight doesn’t cut it.
I love watching your videos because I learn and can genuinely laugh at the same time. Thanks, Dr. Mike.
Love your content Dr.mike! Hello from Denmark
I can't express how valuable this channel has been to my training. Great video as always. Ty Mike!
Same. I don’t train to join any bodybuilding contests I just train like them through the techniques from this channel. The vids in this channel is better than having a PT.
This is the first time I heard anybody on youtube talking about plyometric movement patterns in the context of strength training and bodybuilding... Respect! I've been integrating plyometric type of movements for years now while doing regular resistance training (not talking about jumps), and it makes a difference in a lot of instances... :D
This is good advice l have learnt a lot from you keep up the good work
Your point about peak force at the transition is real for me in the squat. I can pause squat same load as non-pause, which seems a little weird. When I don’t pause, my lower back gives out a little at the transition, causing hip shift and ugliness and awkward stress.
On squats, I find that the heavier I go, the slower and a pause at the bottom actually helps me lift heavier
That point is largely a consequence of physics, but for some people it might make it a LOT more comfortable too, specially under big loads and causing a lot less injury too.
guessing its also your body making sure you dont collapse with all that weight
I love how impossible it is to talk about CBum without mentioning what a nice chap he seems to be
Pretty sure your the only one willing to put out a video like this, respectful but with critiques as well. Kudos
This validates most of my leg training. Love this channel
love that mike is staying humble and watching chris' video in 480p
Been waiting for this! Please make it a series, maybe tackle different suboptimal training styles. HIT bros look out.
He made one about HIT training pros and cons!
New to this channel and I’m loving the content! 👏🏽🙏🏽
yes sir!! I'm so ready for this one
Greg is already shooting a video because of this one sentence.
“I’ve never seen or talked to a women.” Had me rolling 🤣🤣 @16:35
Ive been waiting for this one
My first Dr. Mike vid and I was not expecting the self-deprecating jokes jumping out of nowhere but I'm all for it hahaha. Keep it up!
Man, I never realized it until now, but when Dr Mike said "he looks like the perfect man" and posted that photo at 4:22, CBum indeed looks like a marble statue of a goddamn greek god, so on point with the comment.
CBum looks amazing, but I'd argue that the perfect man is one that is capable of hunting big game (in packs of people), and CBum is far from that
Weird ass comment xD@@defeqel6537
I don't really know why but Dr. Mike's videos are always posted when I'm on the bathroom doing my necessities, thank you for making me more entertained on the toilet mr mike wazowski🥰🥰.
Love the humor. Earned a sub for that alone, let alone all the information thats going over my head.
This is the one I've been waiting for!
Hey Dr Mike, can you suggest some tibialis exercises for us? Thanks!
Every DR Mike video should be titled "Exercise scientist critiques X's training routine... And also shares his inner gay thoughts"
Great video!! Super funny and love, the information !!
Top video, information, and delivery 👌
I think it's worth clarifying too, especially with a seasoned lifter like Chris, I'm sure he might have injuries he deals with. What works best for him, might be inefficiency out of necessity and shouldn't be copied by most
and most people don't think about that so it's good dr mike speaks from the basics up. people usually just copy what they say instead of determining what's best for them, because they don't know what's best.
@@Janzer_ oh yea. We don't know exercises CBum avoids or all his injuries. Maybe some of those things are going on, but this training doesn't seem to be aimed at injury avoidance, even if the belt squats do point to that as being possible.
Yessss. That's true very often for very many, myself included! - Dr. Mike
Hey Dr Mike do you think so close to competition that practising that tight contraction may be more to do with his posing?
IE since he's doing tight contractions at the top when it comes to posing it means he's able to squeeze his quad just that bit tighter
double role as extra time warming up
Absolutely love listening to this guy explain things !
LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!!!!!!
Clicked on the notif instantly
So many pro bodybuilders are clearly devouring and applying RP techniques. Even if they frame it like it's what they've learned over the years... except none of the pros, short of Hunter Labrada, were not focusing on the eccentric part of each exercise. My buddies that follow you will try and tell me 💩 and I'll remind them it took me multiple years to get them on board with RP. RP has changed the way most serious bodybuilders train. Thank you guys... and gals?🤷🏻♂️
Excellent commentary and amusing delivery!
Being this big, funny, and knowledgeable.....you're gonna keep winning man. Dope content!
these videos help me enjoy life
I'd never heard the abductuor/adductor machines called the the bad girl/good girl machines before. My lifting partner called them "girl machines" when I first starting doing legs with him a few years ago. I feel like "good girl/bad girl" is something I should have figured out before this, but I am glad I know now. And I learned some other stuff. Good video!
I use the adductor machine because it's a weak area for me and I always get funny looks at the gym 😂
@@TheNCcope I do a lot of more reps on the abductor than the adductor when I do legs. That fact probably a factor in why I developed an IT Band issue that has morphed into a back stiffness earlier this year. The gym I go to (a commercial gym) has a lot of guys who use those machines so there's not so many looks.Both of the machines are pretty brutal when appropriate weight is used.
The adductor def fills out your inner leg though 😅
Getting the app today! Woo!
18:15 Great Great idea of using footage to explain the technique Dr Mike describes! Instantly understandable!
Id would love to see bald omni man doing a full body workout on your channel, he knows a lot about training
Gotta admit I have started doing more lenghtened partials. Rarely have I grunted and struggled as much as I have been lately
💯
Thank you for the information. Very pragmatic and doesn’t make someone like me who has many side hustles and just wants to stay healthy, gain some size, and not get injured for life!!
When you brought up the "who are you to critique" line, I was reminded of an old martial arts trainer of mine when he was pulled over constructively criticising some chap or other. He said I don't have to be able to fly to know that the sky is blue.
I don't follow the rp app/program, but i do catch myself at the gym lifting with slow proper form thinking... Dr. Mike would approve. 🤣
That Doucette imitation was actually spot on!
Great stuff as always Dr. Mike. Could’ve done with more innuendos tho. 👍
Your Greg D impression had me rolling , twice the effect that you did there with him 😂🤣💀
Belt squats are the best! I had better results from belt squats than I did from heavy barbell work, and I could finish a workout with my low back feeling awesome. The low axial fatigue let me hammer my low back with heavy RDLs and strongman work too.
Besides that, this also lowers mental fatigue, since you are doing less systemic stimulus, specially if squatting wasn't the last exercise, which for strongman is likely the case.
@@VeteranVandal Correct, I generally did compound lifts first to get really warmed up, then strongman, then accessories.
@@jpryan90 my gym has no belt squat and no hack squat and it is frankly saddening.
11:00 Sadly nearly no gym has belt squat machines
Great Job!
Always a good watch 💪 love the v shred ads in-between. 😂
Big up for the animations and editing. Improved the quality of the video IMO and makes it easier to follow Mike's points.
Noob question: Why the heck would the metabolites be sequestered if you don't lock out your legs? It's not like the blood circulation has stopped, right?
Circulation is much lower when the muscle is contracting, so yes, that actually works! - Dr. Mike
@@RenaissancePeriodization Thanks for the clarification. That makes a lot more sense to me now.
The greg doucette impersonation is on point
The thing I really respect about CBum is the transparency with everything. He will be the first one to tell you, his techniques aren’t great with a lot of movements, and he is continuing to learn so be can eliminate injuries. He trains more like he’s “polishing” his muscles groups instead of building. That’s why he continues blow away the competition and his cuts/preps go way more smoother then others.
Regarding the leg extension, consider that the trainee's strength curve changes with higher reps. DAVID designed their leg extension machine with a resistance curve that was lighter at the top of the exercise.
I never heard him speak before so I had no idea he had a speech impediment (or maybe it’s just the Canadian accent).
It's a lisp
he has a lisp
Also, in regard to the work-OUT us canadians don't want to waste time over pronouncing the "out" like a german. So we say "wer-kout" to make it quicker. I've noticed that too. I haven't heard of someone say "oot" though, that's more hicktown canada (up north or prairies for us). The way Cbum pronounced it is how most canadians say it.
That’s what I thought. I had one of his energy drinks a few weeks ago and the spelling on it was all weird. Now it all makes sense.
8:05 "Chris is using all the weight in the gym" 🤣 actually tho
Lovr this content////.... great job
The trade off metaphor...pure Gold, Doc!
Hearing Mike talk is what I imagine a walking chat GPT robot talk about fitness, critiquing with all available research at his fingertips on immediate recall.
TBH shitty analogy because chat GPT doesnt have credibility in his random copipasta from internet
This is the single biggest compliment I have ever received. Thank you! - Dr. Mike
@@RenaissancePeriodization you’re very welcome. Love the channel!
GPT does many mistakes. So i guess Mike is make them too lel
Interesting... now let's see Ramon's training
Hi, I just recently did or eres this channel and you! I’ve been watching as much content as possible since. I would like to know what your thoughts are on the X3 resistance bands as a means of workout and whether (if at all) it has benefits over using free weights properly? My dad has been using it and has seen good results, but as with a lot of things, if you’re working out you will make gains. Also what are the cons compared to lifting properly?
I love seeing him do smith squats! So many people talk shit about them, but I fucking love them. Glad that Dr. Mike approves.
Lmaooo openly calling out Greg now I love it, Mike's always alluded to not liking but letting it fly now😂
They seemed pretty chummy on a podcast style video a couple years ago. I think most of the drama is intentional, as it only boosts both channels. If you really hate someone on RUclips, you just ignore them entirely
Greg sells BS supplements he deserves ALL the hate
@@spencerschubert5001 wasn't really chummy mike had to hold back and apologize for roasting him
Yo, even if I wasn’t in to fitness and learning how to improve in the gym I would still watch your vids Dr. Mike - you are funny as shit
💪🏻 you seem very kind and gentle when critiquing Mr. Olympia! I did not recognize in this video Dr, Mike! However, I do appreciate the fact that you expose that even champs can have better exercise, technique, and selection. Thanks for exposing this. I am pretty sure that what you’re saying will be taken seriously because now you have big balls and you are an influent RUclipsr, unfortunately, unknown exercise scientist will be jammed by rocks if he open his mouth. Cheers! 💪🏻
Love the humility in this video
Working on peak contraction isn't for growth, yes. But he's not trying to gain mass at this point. You want to focus your training on peak contraction for show. It's how you get that extreme definition and sculpt in poses. Have you ever looked at your calve during a charley horse. Besides the extreme pain, it's probably the most cut and defined your calf has or will ever look. He's training to get the hardest squeeze there,.. at peak contraction.
I’ve never thought about this before, thanks for the comment 👍
Oh man unfortunately I don't think peak contractions help with definition at all. - Dr. Mike
The first time I ever did the abductor and adductor was when I was 14 with my mom and she called them “good girl and bad girls” and until my freshman year of college at 19 years old I called them that thinking that was their real name 😂
You know what, it might as well be their real name lol! - Dr. Mike
Damn ! the amount of knowledge from this video is unmatched yet
Ive stopped doing my adductors as much, just because I dont feel the need to hit them much anymore. I used to love them tho. Especially doing the pause and weight trick like you said. Also love sliding into the seat and widening it more than I can naturally go.
Fair play to Dr Mike for critiquing a 5 time Olympia champion, most would shy away cause of his success. Even the best dont have perfect training!
Then how he is the best
@@tamtech4804 Best genetics, close to perfect training (not perfect), very good work ethic, years of experience, close to best nutrition, close to best recovery
@@tamtech4804he’s not, he’s like 80 lbs under what he’d need to be to win open
Genes.
@@abkonkhe’s not, he’s super light, he’s lucky the classic division started to exist 6 years ago or he’d be a nobody
4:48 "from the 40s" shows strongmen from 1910 at the latest
yeah as a historian that kinda drove me nuts for a second lol
Love the facts on foot position and knee flexion to focus on quads and not ego lifting.
Great approach to such a hard video to make. Wont make everyone happy, but fuck em. Good insight, thanks mate
Went to high-school with a girl named Chastity and she was absolutely anything but...and I had the amazing chance to be near her when she found out what her name meant and got to listen to "oh no, I hope my dad didn't name me that hoping that would be what happened"
Hhahahah yikes! - Dr. Mike
Dat greg impression lol I'm dying!
Hi Dr Mike, I've been absolutely loving your content at the moment, I was wondering if yoy suggest the use of Belt squat machines for Weightlifters also? Sorry if its a stupid question, I've used them a few times in my trsining but never made it a permanent feature of my programs, just wondering what your thoughts were?
5:04 also we're probably getting genetic specimens who are closer to the tail of the distribution because body building has grown in popularity and the recruitment pool is larger
Can you make a video on different "advanced techniques" like drop sets, rest pause, long length partials, static reps etc. What are they good for? Do they really work in a bodybuilding context? Are some of them trash? Why are some of them good?
Already have, sir! Check this one out: ruclips.net/video/V71TGRQaLRs/видео.html&pp=ygUHbXlvcmVwcw%3D%3D - Dr. Mike
