    A competitive powerlifter since 1999, Brian Carroll is one of the most accomplished lifters in the sport's history. Having lifted at the elite world-class level since 2005, Brian has well over a decade of world-class lifting experience. He has totaled more than ten times his body weight in three different classes, and both bench pressed and deadlifted over 800 pounds in two different classes. In his career, he’s totaled 2600 over 20 times in 2 different weight classes with his best totals of 220-2376, 242-2651, and 275-2730. Most recently (10.3.20) -Brian set the highest squat of all-time (regardless of weight class) with 1306lbs - being the first man to break the 1300lb squat barrier at a body-weight of 303lbs. Brian is now retired from competition is now dedicated to helping others avoid the same mistakes that he made in the past through private and group coaching.
    Brian’s impressive recovery, documented in the best selling book co-authored with Dr. McGill 'Gift of Injury' has given him the opportunity to teach and deliver talks to physical therapists, chiropractors, medical doctors, professional strength & conditioning coaches and experts from all facets of sport, on how to avoid injury, while building anti-fragile strength and resilience in athletes.

    One thing I noticed about Dr McGill immediately is that he genuinely wants to get to the root causes of back pain and actually change people’s lives, most of the dr’s and PT’s that I have seen give a generic cookie cutter explanation on oh well do this and do that and it’s all temporary stuff that never really fixes the problem. Dr McGill is just a genuinely good dr that others should model after.

      It all depends on the injury - cookie cutters might work for some

    • @joeschmo7957

      I should like to add an interesting point here. The "temporary stuff" that "never really fixes the problem" is the PROBLEM. NOT Dr. McGill's protocols. This is NOT to say he may be perfect... but his IS among the best we have to glean from. Many people will (1) Do the exercise for a period of time, and then, somehow discontinue the efforts and end up saying "it helped me for awhile". Others will deem the exercises "too difficult, complicated, technical or painful to proceed with". This will not end up working for me, the science failed.
      People are fickle, most generally. They come to me/us for relief. We offer it to them, but when they cannot simply swallow a pill, they are put off and disenchanted with the process. Too difficult, too problematic, I don't know if I am doing it right and it hurts and I see LITTLE progress.
      Corrective movement. Therapeutic exercise. Long term aerobic exercise regimen with chronic consistency. Is this going to cure you of your back that has incurred a "perfect storm" of damage, injury, non-treatment and ignorance of what it may require to rehab? Not likely. But, with most people, they would see CONSIDERABLE improvement in stiffness, reduced pain and increased mobility with your ADL's.

    In the last twenty years I’ve struggled 4 times with back and sciatica pain and had two disk surgery back in 2003 and 2006. Now I’m there again, I’m gonna see the only Italian McGill certified in a couple of weeks. I wish I only had take that wise path years before at the beginning of my struggle, maybe my life would have been better and healthier. Thanks for the helpful video!🤞🤞🤞

    I completely agree with the first part of the podcast about the types of patients you guys see are usually the ones who have done the research and usually have slightly more complex mechanisms. When I saw Joel he told me he rarely gets to see any generic flexion interolant low back pain as they usually get better on there own. Great podcast, im glad all of you at backfitpro do what you do. You two and Joel changed my life and now im back to living again! Much love

    Thank you for this. What I found most interesting was the discussion about how by training stiffness it can lead to improvements in movement training such as the story about the guys who passed the sit-up test without ever actually training sit ups.

    • @BrianCarroll1306
      @BrianCarroll1306  11 месяцев назад +1

      Training for the sit-up test can ruin backs. We prep for it by training the core, not the actual sit-up. I've worked with multiple SEALS, Berets, and Military who we've had to get creative with.

    Would love to see you discuss the nuance of reintroducing back flexion with @lowbackability and the atg guys.
    I seems like there is this idea that prof. McGill is anti flexion forever and seeing this interview provides some context on that.
    Very curious on how you guys go about it.
    Lowbackability recommendations starting on the back extension machine and just holding the top position (no flexion yet) until 2 min holds with statue like form is possible
    Next step, single leg until one minute holds perfect form is possible
    Then slowly add movement using the handles and work your way back to full range of motion back extensions.
    I think this would be a fascinating discussion and would benefit alot of people .
    Love what you guys are doing! Legends!

      Just not interested in arguing /convincing/ debating -with anyone who hasn't done proper research on the spine to be honest. Mcgill has 230 + papers and 4 books. What research has ATG done and published? None. I see people daily wrecked from these types of programs We are too busy helping those who want help.

      Ahh fair play. I still think it would be a fun discussion but to each their own.
      I got through back mechanic twice and am going through ultimate back fitness and performance and have gift of injury lined up next.
      Didnt mean to imply Mcgill isnt an expert, I just have noticed a lot of people who have only read back mechanic are often confused on how to safely (or if they even should) reintroduce flextion in their life or if they should move like an athlete forever.
      Either way, looking forward to your book and I appreciate you guys!

  • @w7855
    @w7855 Год назад +5

    I’d love to hear more about the physiology of the big 3. Of course they are low amplitude movements, so is it training the muscles to be a little more stiff when passive? I’ve heard McGill and other studies state a normal spine only needs a few percent of muscle activation to provide adequate stiffness in day to day life, and maybe more towards 10% for someone with injuries and instability. Is the aim of the big 3 to slightly increase that muscle activation just enough to provide additional stability?

    So McGill method only addresses lifters, gym bros, persons with slipped/damaged discs. What about structural postural imbalances in ordinary people who dontvrequire correctives merely for the typical movements under weight of lifters or movements by athletes?
