Even with these techniques once you get to the 97% range (which is the standard for GMP manufacturing) accuracy ranges get even more difficult to get.

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    00:00 🤔 *Dr. Mike discusses worthwhile supplements for beginners and intermediates in hypertrophy and strength training.*
    01:36 🧐 *Dr. Mike excludes illegal and borderline supplements, focusing on those suitable for individuals lifting and eating well.*
    03:58 💪 *Protein shakes, including whey (post-workout), casein (long intervals), and mixed proteins (meal replacement), are recommended.*
    08:47 🏋️‍♂️ *Workout carbs (dextrose or sports drinks) during/after workouts enhance intensity and aid recovery, best paired with protein shakes.*
    10:50 🍚 *Slow-digesting carbs like waxy maize can be used for convenient, long-lasting meal replacements, offering easy macros on the go.*
    16:11 💊 *Creatine monohydrate is recommended for muscle growth, performance, and overall health, with a standard dose of 5g per day.*
    18:36 🌊 *Taking breaks from creatine occasionally is okay, and it doesn't negatively impact kidneys; expect water weight gain during use.*
    22:24 💪 *Creatine is a safe and beneficial supplement for muscle growth; expect initial water weight gains, but they stabilize after a week, providing improved body composition, strength, and recovery.*
    23:50 🌿 *A multivitamin/multimineral is a recommended supplement, especially for those who lift and eat well; it acts as an insurance policy, ensuring you're not lacking essential nutrients.*
    25:14 ⚖️ *Stick to the recommended dose of multivitamins; excessive intake can lead to expensive urine (water-soluble) or toxicity (fat-soluble), causing health issues.*
    26:22 🏷️ *Don't overpay for expensive vitamin brands; generic or store brands (e.g., Great Value) are just as effective, saving money without sacrificing quality.*
    28:03 🛑 *Beginners may not need supplements; for intermediates, consider them on an as-needed basis; advanced individuals, especially those using anabolics, may benefit from specific supplements based on individual needs.*
    29:41 ☕ *Pre-workouts and caffeine are optional; stick to recommended dosages, take them 30 minutes before workouts, but avoid late in the day to ensure quality sleep and optimal results.*

    Awesome vid as always. Little caviat: whey protein's fast absorption only applies in the exact study setup: empty stomach + taken in isolation (for science). In PRACTICE, whey is often taken with some form of a meal, together with some fat, complex carbs and/or fiber, often significantly slowing the absorption time of any protein (+ significantly lowering any glycemix index). In short: Don't expect any significant gains from buying 'timed release' protein powder, if you already time release your whey with a regular meal. Also, regular milk products generally are 80% casein, if you want to add in some slow release protein. Protein from full eggs is extremely slow etc. etc. Enough reasons generally, why whey is the only protein powder you need.

      Fair point, but anyone with a base level of knowledge will specifically take whey along with dextrose (or sour candies) post-workout, and likewise take casein either by itself or with a slow-digesting carbohydrate before bed. In doing the above, you capitalize on the absorption rates of each respective protein and utilize them accordingly.

    Great video and very entertaining as always! One thing I wanted to comment on is that there has been some research that multivitamins have bad health results and it has been theorized this is because they contain too much heavy metals like Chromium. I have no idea if this would be very different if they only studied their effects on weight lifters. I think it's often wise to restrict mineral and vitamin supplements to just what your regular diet isn't very high on.

    After your recommendation and others I finally started doing intra-workout nutrition. Its still early in my own testing but so far its been a game changer for me. Previously I was getting super exhausted and dealing with a ton of Systemic Fatigue at the end and after my workouts so I decided to add in a simple shake with some carbs. after the addition I was able to complete my workout and didn't feel like a zombie the rest of the day. In addition I was able to take my target muscles to local fatigue over simply "burning out" by the end of my workout so the quality of my workout has improved. Even if my workout hasn't changed markedly, in terms of sets or reps, with this "supplement" my quality of life afterwards and the next day have improved radically so I'm sold and I would absolutely recommend trying it.

    Thank for the extremely good information with a little humor sprinkled in. Been lifting all my life I’m 66 and used various supplements throughout the years knowing now lots of them were money down the drain. I just started with creatine again and protein isolate after over a year of no supplementation. At my age my workouts have evolved to reflect my age so I’m trying to get back a little of what I had when I was younger which is more fuller pronounced muscle quality.

Sprinkle in Greg Doucette's bullshit and constant redefining of maingaining and you have a perfect recipe for making minimal to no gains. I've made my best gains going from 15% to 20% bodyfat. Bulking will always be the most optimal way to build muscle.

    If you are sweating a lot, you may need to replace electrolytes. This isn't just for hard aerobic activities -- it could be moderate exertion in hot weather. The issue is that you don't just lose water -- you also lose sodium (primarily), potassium, magnesium, calcium. Loss of sodium (hyponatremia) can have neurologic effects -- nausea, light-headedness, confusion. Back when I used to do the Komen for the Cure Three-Day Walk, they would attempt to prevent this by offering electrolyte drinks, salty snacks, and potassium-containing fruit like oranges and bananas. There would still occasionally be walkers who got hyponatremia, and who would be treated with IV electrolytes.

    Was even more surprised that I can feel a extremely clear difference between no creatine workouts and creatine 1 hour prior workouts. The tension in the muscles are just way way tighter and the pump is there in half the time. Assume it's due to a combination of higher muscle volume due to water, better recovery and slightly higher force/volume.

    Note for creatine for small people. I weigh less than 120lbs and taking 5 g messed up my GI tract enough for the discomfort to really impact my workouts. In that case looking up dosing per kg of BW might be worth it. Since I powered the dose to 3 g, I had no issues whatsoever.
