If possible could you do a podcast on whether or not you think primal squat holds are a good idea for preventing knee injury. I know you are an advocate of deep weighted squats.
We need a "How to Look like Hugh Jackman" Programm in the same style as your Chris Hemsworth Video

Is there ever a good reason for the bosu ball ?
If he hired Dr Mike he could go from Hugh Jackman to Huge Jacked-Man in no time
Underrated comment
He truly does have the best name of any man
Or Jacked Human
Come to find out that a lot of Hugh's physique was just Hollywood movie magic, especially Chris Hemsworth.
I knew there was a joke in there somewhere
3500-4500 calories of lean meats with steam veggies would be an absurd amount of meat.
all i eat is chicken, steamed veggies, cheese and avocados. 1200 calories is already 135g of protein for me. dude must’ve been getting 400g+ protein. that’s insane.
Yea I think a lb of ground beef 85/15 is like 1k calories.
@@FullRevive7 I mean 1kg/2.2lbs of chicken breast is "only" 1650 calories with over 300 grams of protein. You are telling me this man is shoveling pounds of meat in his mouth every day for months? Or like Dr Mike says in the video, he probably ate quite a bit of brown rice/other foods. I feel like these actors are just reading a script the personal trainer gave them. Chicken breast and broccoli bro.
@@FullRevive7 I remember looking at it once and a kilo of ground beef and 6 cups of white rice was only like 3000 calories?
Sooooo much food!
he had to have been mainlining mass gainer there’s no freakin way
I trust bro, anyone with a brain popping out the sides of their head must be very smart.
😂😂
underrated comment
His body had to put extra muscle somewhere😅
Bruhhh 💀💀💀💀💀
That's just because he got smushed down vertically

The irony is that Dr. Mike looks more like Wolverine than pretty much anyone else I've ever seen. Muscle mass, body hair, height. He's the full package.
Not to mention that Wolverine is only 5'4.
He’s shaped perfectly for the role. He just needs the wig.
And now I have to see an AI version of Wolverine based on doc!
@@IHateRUclips-sr1wj bro said height too
@JuanDiaz-xd5nk Mike is too tall and wide. Actually the perfect actor for Wolverine would be Tom Hardy.
His bones aren't made from adamantium, his bones where grafted with the metal. All your arguements are now null and void now.
Depends which version
You said “now null and void now”
I submit that YOUR arguments are now null and void…
😂😂😂
@@-Jozef Does any version of Wolverine have bones that are actually made of adamantium?
Well, given the mythical properties of adamantium, that doesn't really matter. If every pore in his organical bones were filled with it, and they were coated in it, the result would be essentially the same as if his bones had been completely replaced with it.
@@utkarsh2746yeah, the Dr Mikes variant of Wolverine 😂

They have to add some weird exercises to make it seem like it's the complexity that got them the body they have rather than the steroids.
He definitely was not on steroids

@nickfleming3719 yes, the fuck, he was, he admitted it. They all fucking take steroids.

You should do a "REAL Wolverine Workout" program like you did for Thor!
I agree^
I also agree
Agree
Truuue
I concur.
Hugh Jackman was a high school Physical Education (PE) teacher in Australia before becoming an actor.
Gtfo no way! Fr?
The sled is a fantastic tool for rehabilitation.
Fixed my knees, ankles, feet and hip all at the same time. Got me to the point where i could do lifts that I didn't think I'd be able to do ever again.
Wont make you swole though
@@MrSuperSuppo for me it was a swole catalyst.
Because of the sled I can do squats again..
It's also grown my calves in a way that calf raises don't. So, some legit hypertrophy there.
yup helped me rehab my torn acl, can also squat again
@@MrSuperSuppoit's not supposed to.
Being "swole" is not everyone's workout goal.
@@MrSuperSupponot every exercise is to make you swole. Like stretching doesn’t make me jacked, but it keeps me from getting sore and getting muscle cramps which prevent me from doing the shit that does get me swole. Same with sled, I sled to try and rehab my knees to the point I can squat no problem. Only doing the exercises that make you swole is how you f up your joints
Edits were clean at the start
Dr. Mike needs to turn B. Cumberbatch into a beast for a movie
Mad respect for Dr. Mike for being honest and straightforward with the facts. Saw another popular RUclipsr do this format and he was basically saying “everything this person did is both perfect and beautiful.”
Who was that so I may access their assessment?
Not really when it's only including sillier stuff they went back 20 years to find. Jackman has prepped for Wolverine 10 times now, picking out the stuff before he learned to train is just feeding the algorithm.
low IQ take
Unsubscribe😂
Can you go over kneesovertoes guy's workout standards and give your take on what is worth integrating?
I would really love if Dr. Mike could discuss a bit about spine problems (hyperlordosis, scolios, etc) and do's and don't in the gym, like what exercises to avoid and how to correct the posture. I feel like sometimes I have back pain (like from a glute bridge machine) and I'm not sure if it's related to my condition.
word!
I’ve been watching his content for years and it would be nice get some context on spinal injuries and how to work around some of them like using belts etc. But he has said many times posture is a made up metric and differs from individual to individual. Usain Bolt has scoliosis for example, did you know that? If you were to “fix” his slight curve he would be slower because he has learned to perform with that curve. Something to consider
I don't think it's what this channel is for but I do get it like an expert opinion but it stops being an expert opinion if he's not a physiatrist or physiotherapist so that area should not be talked about if you are not a professional since sports science do dabble in injuries but not to an extent of rehabilitation or how to cope with having one. There are lots of channels that talk about that though, professionals. One wrong move and you exacerbated the situation so go to a doctor is always BEST and internet solutions can't be trusted 100% specially on sensitive cases like spine and others.
Edit: He never talks about it and only on nagging small injuries like a strain, woops pulled a muscle, small stuff he did talk about but never BIG injuries coz that's not his field and it would be really awful for him to talk about things he's not a professional on and even if he knows stuff it's still not his field of expertise.
1) dr. mike is not a m.d., but a doctoral researcher.
2) dr. mike's speciality is hypertrophy. outside of that, i doubt he keeps up with the latest spinal injury research, and seriously doubt that he conducts any.
3) on the point of conducting research, dr. mike is literally unknown in the fitness research world. his guests are far more worth looking at for serious and dedicated fitness stuff, including injury work. people like menno henselman, peter attia
4) stuart mcgill is an actual academic heavyweight and world leader in spinal injuries. look him up
@@pierrea3094I don't know man, when you look like the worms from MIB I think that the strain in the lower back hits different with heavy exercises
Hollywood training / progress = stereoids
With their training, it has to be a lot of the ol' magic powders and pills. If they trained halfway decent, theyd look like Dr. Mike / Jared
Really it should be progress/Hollywood training = steroids since BS Hollywood training needs to be multiplied by steroids to equal any meaningful progress
@@Steven-bq5fu like shit?

@@ChamplooMusashiEat clen, tren hard, anavar give up on your dreams.
4:57 The discussion on deadlift technique and touch n go vs. deadstop DLs was really good!
Seeing Dr Mike gets my claw as hard as adamantium every time
Hawt! 😍
My bones are made of glass and my skin is made of paper. Going to the gym is typically a life or death situation for me. Wakes me up right away.
You got that 18th century French royalty constitution, fam.
I use the bosu ball at my gym because I have a knee condition and I use it for one specific exercise that strengthens the knee but isn’t fatiguing on the rest of the leg. What I do is I put the bosu ball against the wall and while sitting down pressing my leg into the ball as if I’m trying to pop it. I know that sounds like a leg press with extra steps but it feels completely different and has helped with the pain over time
Thank you. I was looking for an appropriate comment to ask, “So what are bosu balls and instability training good for?”
Dr. Mike and team got me rolling
The timing with the app ad keeps getting better 😂 touch and go
Ah yes my favorite body building RUclipsr, Dr. Mike of house Harkonnen
Your editors are very slick 😂
Love the ad transition in this episode. Well done.
That laugh and sigh during the first push up was hilarious.The point you make about being able to eat sugar, even when cutting and getting lean was what kind of set me free. I can maintain a really strict diet comprised of healthy "not fun" foods for weeks on end. As long as I can eat once per week where I dgaf and eat what I want, including Reese's peanut butter cups, while staying within caloric goal. I even drink booze once per week. It's changed my ability to stay on target.
I appreciate you now giving alternatives to the bad moves they are doing. That I find so helpful as a beginner
Always entertaining and knowledgeable . The humor just cracks me up
0:55 you’re closer to what Wolverine should look like by the way. Well, besides the head hair missing thing.😂
Instead of hair popping out to the sides, his head pops out to the sides
Dr. Mike for Wolverine 2025!
@@davidarredondo2017 Danny DeVito got the role.
Editors are GOATED!!!
you know what Mike, youre a smart dude. I especially liked your comments about not being able to use force when your body is trying to stay balanced on weird surfaces. Solid info here.
The bit about nervous system adjusting for survival rather than pushing for gains was new. Cool new tidbit.
Yeah these are great tips but where can I get some adamantium in my body?
Adamantium gives you cancer. Don't believe big mutant!
Weapon X will do that for you bro
Thanks Doc.
Very good video and it's a very balanced assessment.
5:50 Dr. Mike calls me out..
Yup me too 😭
Same
Smoothest app plug transition to date.
Jackman actually had a great training routine back in The Wolverine and Days of Future Past days, around 2012-2014. His trainer was David Kingsbury and they worked really well together. Lots of bench press, squats, deadlift and pull-ups.
yeah there was a big difference between his X2 X3 body and the DOFP body. His back was twice as wide and twice as thick in the DOFP.
Why wouldn’t you develop your squats with range of motion through all joints. Ankles included. If you have to wear shoes that give you a different angle to lift the weight better, why wouldn’t you just train lighter pushing full range, deep stretch? “Technique and effort “
Kind of arrogant in this one Dr Mike
Stability is a great trait to acquire helps make lifts way more stable. You’re pissing on any alternative training because you know everything
@@paraworth You are the arrogant one. Dr. Mike was spot on about stability training.
Stability training is applied to improve stability or in injury rehab/prevention, not to
replace a gym bench or any other similar equipment. Otherwise is just charlatanism,
which is often seen in gyms when some dupes try to benchpress on a stability ball or
some shit like that. That's just plain dangerous.
Having that said, dr. Mike has a penchant for mixing scientific info with his personal
bias and subjective assumptions. He can't see things from the perspective of a
rehabilitation therapist/physiotherapist/etc. Instead, he just dismisses these elements
altogether. "Sasquatch-no-go-monkey. Pull-up bad. Ooga-booga..."
Love your videos, love Hugh, and love this video. Have to say that every time you break into 40s/50s male Hollywood actor brogue ("Hey, whattaya tryinga shay?"), it's an absolutely highlight. I had thought that perhaps l was the only person in the world who enjoyed aping that style of speaking, until l first heard you do it even better than myself. Well done, sir.
Family found a channel where somebody knows their stuff ✅ new subscriber 💪
That ad transition tho 👌
I would love to see a Hollywood guy who needs a good physique for a film come out and want to get trained by you. I would love to see how you well you train them
Dr Mike, I just went from 450lbs to 296. I'm 48 and am just bone on bone in my knee. 32 seasons of rugby do that, I do a light leg day and do a paused goblet squat after watching one of your videos. I never thought I'd be able to squat again but seeing your squat workouts with little weight inspired me. Love the videos. (I might even play a game of rugby if the wife doesn't find out😂😂😂😂)
Solid Clarence cameo.

@@Unknown2Yoo‘twas a simpler time
@@ericmiller4519 Indeed.
fun video editing and i liked how you brought scott into it and showing his workout, like cavaliere and his guy that like gummy bears
Sled pushing is strengthening ankle, knee and hips for old mutants to do cardio.
And Bosu Ball squats give you stability and core strength allowing you to do stunts and movements pain free.
Just don’t expect big legs from them, thats not what they are for.
Not hypertrophic at all, but it can be a good knee joint bulletproofing exercise. At higher volumes. The point is, that's not what Jackman is training for.
I think kneesovertoesguy has really popularised the sled thing, and doing things backwards
so are squats? except you actually get range of motion from squats lol
@@maxwellerickson7066 bulletproofing a joint is not possible. anyone telling you that you can, their knowledge is immediately suspect (this includes kneesovertoesguy).
she renais on my sance till i periodization
preach 🙏🏽🙏🏽
she period on my ization till I renaissance
Sled pushing is something id def do. One time i worked pushing heavy carts and was the only time i really felt my hands and feet fully connected through my abbs. Was fkn amazing. If pushing a sled gives you that than sign me up.
I been waiting for this video for a year
With Dr. Mike’s height and build he would be a more comic book accurate Wolverine then Hugh Jackman
The Puck hasn’t gotten a movie yet…
I'm convinced these Hollywood actor workout videos are purely promo for their movie and to keep their actual routine (juice) a secret. Idk, I feel like there's a conspiracy somewhere.
Im sure theyre largely bs to sell the movie. Realistically, no one really wants to see a celebrity training video where they essentially just show an overview of how any normal person would train for muscle size.
That was fun, Dr Mike. 👍🏼
I think the trailer he had for Deadpool 3 might’ve been more legit, Beth Lewis. She didn’t post too many videos but had him doing more compound movements and less silly stuff like clapping pushups and bosu ball balancing
Aye, not much point critiquing training as being old fashioned when the videos are decades old.
@@jaxr2958 exactly! This time he was training with someone who appeared to be more of a legit strength coach rather than a flashy celeb trainer
@@benreed9952 To be honest I lost my confidence in Dr Mike with the way they misrepresent these people's training. Hugh's trained for this role for 25 years, there's masses of videos of him doing traditional weight training. Editing together a version that makes him look like a dick, I just don't think is cool. But mostly it's takes away my trust in his advice.
@@jaxr2958 same, for some other reasons, he’s made some comments about other fitness RUclipsrs that are straight up not true and genuinely weird. Not sure if the team is trying to play into drama or not but it comes off as childish for a team that also wants to be seen as an authority
@@benreed9952 Yep, I guess if they're gonna go after the Clicks and $ that's up to them. It makes me sad though, a few times I've followed a channel and suddenly they get all clickbaity and you know they've sold out.
Better CGI claws then X-Men Origins: Wolverine 😏
Best transition ever.
this was fun! 💯
I'm sure Hugh Jackman had Cancer several times and this could possibly be why his exercise routine isn't vigorous and is low weight
ok, but still Hugh got an amazing body, something was working...
Steroids.

Great roast as per usual doc! Id love to see your reaction to that new men's health video on Alan Ritchson.
I am patiently waiting your review of Jake Gyllanhaal’s idiotic roadhouse training.
shhhhhh
He may be a bit backlogged if he's just now reviewing Jackman's training 10-20 years ago.
how was it idiotic when the dude looks exactly like an mma fighter at his weight class?
Maybe you didn’t liked Gyllanhaal’s training !? But it obviously did work for him 🤷♂️
@@kasperrieberg3495 Have you ever heard of steroids?
"exercise scientist react " in the title is annoying as fuck.
Dr. Mike always gets respect for respecting Weightlifting
great vid
hollywood celebs have big pecs and tiny arms. how are they getting such amazing pec isolation?
Hollywood training is a combination of good genetics, short actors, steroids, and really low calorie diet and not really actually training to make them look great for a specific role
Hugh is over 6ft tall pal
hugh jackman isnt short, neither are the hemsworths, etc.
they probably just go on cycle get big for role, detrain, get bigger again, rinse repeat.
its why they can do these short term transformations, its way easier to change in a short time if you detrain. the rest of the time they probably have a normal gym routine and do a lower dose of hormones, then they pick up on their doses for the roles.
Hugh is 6’3 man 😂
Hey Mike are you able to make a more detailed periodisation programming guide for Jiujitsu?
I’ve been following the basic one you have on bjj fanatics and now I want more 😍😍
Yooo Inwas just watching that 90 degree guy come across my IG and wondering your thoughts on his “philosophy” and here I stumbled on it as you mentioned it in an unrelated video!!!!!!! I will he digging to find your video on it!!!! Truly respect your content; great shit!! Have learned a lot
That was cut in to the RP ad was really good
Dr. Mike Please we need a video on increasing Vertical Jump.
It's like a game to me to see how fast I can fast forward through his single, 15 second short, concise, and honestly probably useful, ad for his app
Not too long ago, I saw his workout posted within some targeted ad. I immediately commented that "I would love to see Dr. Mike Israetel's critique of this." And here it is. You beautiful man with a skull shaped like a Cretaceous Ceratopsian.
Shoutout to editing team for that smooth transition 9:28
12:31 my PT showed me a clip of a guy trying to do dumbbell presses while stabilizing his back on a bosu ball. The ball popped and he dropped the dumbbells (I think they were like 80s) directly onto his forearms, shattering both of em. It’s a perfect video to demonstrate why an exercise being different and unique doesn’t mean it’s better.
I love sled pushing, mostly as a last burnout on a leg day, or if I do a functional stuff workout. Both legs, shoulders and triceps. If you want back, tie a long rope to it and do arm over arm rowing, just like the Strongman event, it's great 😊 I also love Farmer's carry, even though Mike would probably dunk that as well 😅
The “yeaaah boy” killed me! W editors
The thing about an actors workout and Dr Mike's workouts are two different goals.
One is to be big and the other is to be in shape to do a movie. Also remembering that Hugh is a dancer. So being big is not the goal, its having enough stamina and muscle to make a movie during long hours of filming.
Ultimately, his job is not to be big, but to be big enough to bring in the big money. I think he manages to do that very well. Imho
Oh, and don't forget the lighting and make-up artist that help fill in the definition.
omg the clarence lil shoutout, yaaas
I want that ball rant and toy punchline as a short to send it everywhere
See i have to do it deadlift for lowerback pinched nerve. It seems to help.
Mate, you hair is so much better rn. Falling deep here in Poland~!
One common critique in these videos that I see and disagree on is when Dr Mike says things like they're just actors and don't really need to train for and like the part that they're playing. While its true that they are actors, I as the audience member always appreciate it more when the actor actually looks like and moves like the part they're trying to play. Not just physique wise. Sure you can use stunt doubles and stuff but I think we all appreciate it better when we see a Jackie Chan performing many of his own stunts, or Keanu Reeves showing off his gun skills and martial arts. Hugh Jackman can't actually be Wolverine, but he needs to move like him the best he can. If he's just this bulky ripped guy thats slow and doesn't look like he can fight then I'm either gonna call bs or be less invested.
Yep which made the high clapping pullups impressive. Maybe he doesn't want to be just all show
Dr Mike kind of just blew my mind with his insight about body composition and deadlifting. I'm a tall guy with a short torso and stupidly long femurs, I was benching ~200, squatting ~360 and deadlifting 500. It was the only lift out of the big three I could actually load a bunch of non baby weight and move it.
Dr mike cares infinitely more than anyone actually involved with the workouts he watches. Makes for a good watch for us. Also I'd like to watch him critique a strongman like Brian shaw workout.
I really want an RP hoodie or shirt ! Any chance this is in the future, Dr. Mike?
I love it!!
Damn those ad transition are on point
3:20 I have never seen clapping pull-ups before. I'm impressed as someone who struggles with one normal pull-up.
