    I went from being a GD fan, to disliking him as some of his rants began hurting my ears, to now being an even bigger fan. After a while, you get a feel for which channels are genuinely trying to help and both Greg and Mitch seem to be about making a positive impact with what they know to be true vs trying to find a controversial topic or solution to appeal to a viewership through confirmation bias. We all falter here and there but I think they are genuinely good guys.

    First off, very well done. I think the level of discussion and the chemistry are great. I agree with one of the comments regarding Greg’s persona on the bulk of his videos. A calm and collected Greg is much preferable to the high pitched screaming. Having said that I do like his content for the most part

    • @RichardSmith-nd9vk
      @RichardSmith-nd9vk 7 месяцев назад +3

      I actually like Greg's high pitched screaming, it makes him more interesting. It doesn't make him less informative, so I think it's fine. It might even make him more informative because more people are listening to him, and he uses humor to make points stick in our brains. When you finish watching him, you think why is he talking to us like 3rd graders? He's dumbing it down too much. But actually you didn't know it before you started watching him and he taught you something new!

    Awesome interview!! Coach Greg's advice has helped me lose 40+ lbs and keep it off. Although he may cross the line of controversy from time to time, his advice is solid and his consistent videos helped me tremendously. He made me realize I was the problem and I was the only one who can fix that problem. Do Cardio, Put the Fork down and STOP making EXCUSES. Honestly Greg has likely added many years to my life and I'm thankful for his no BS way of teaching.
    LHBK is an amazing slogan for inclusion and a healthy relationship with physical and mental health. A movement lead by and man with an excellent attitude and incredible determination, work ethic and skill. Inspiring many with his feats of strength, endurance, intelligence and kindness.

      Mitchell says there's a bit more nuissance to the Calories In - Calories Out relation. And there is. But like he said in the end: the scale will tell you if you're in a calorie deficit or not.
      So they agree. Mitchell just doesn't think it's as straight fwd.
      I think it's very simple. But I'm a hydraulic engineer and I deal with the energy equation and mass conservation all the time... same concept. I don't need to track my Calories perfectly. But I know that if I eat less and move more, I'm going to lose weight.

    I've been following Coach Greg for a long time now and I'm also not American, so I honestly never found issue with the stuff he talks about.

    So no hate from me.
    These are actually the things I most appreciate and respect and fully practice myself.

    Greg's clone is so much nicer than the original. Jokes aside. To be honest, Greg's content on his own channel can be annoying because of his style. This conversation, on the other hand, is brilliant, provocative, constructive, and useful. Please make more of these.

    Coach Greg is awesome. yes the angry voice can get annoying. yes he loves the click bait. yes he loves picking fights with other big (often bigger) influencers for clout 😬 BUT it's part of the business!!! those videos are probably the ones that get him views, otherwise he wouldn't do them. underneath all that I find he has a very consistent message and spreads a lot of great information. Sure some things you need to take with a grain of salt and adjust to you, but overall he's solid dude. Also Coach Greg was detrimental in me being comfortable in the 12-15% bf range, instead of chasing 10% year round and feeling awful. will forever be grateful

    That was a really good interview/discussion, reckon we could learn a lot from him if he went down the education route rather than controversy one. Maybe he does but I’ve only ever seen his rants. 😂
    I’m gonna start smashing the like button on his channel so he beats the haters just that little bit more 👍

    I don't follow Greg, but everything he said here makes since.
    I also wasn't bothered by his question following the video of the lady giving the bad health advice to the young woman trying out prom dresses.
    I suppose, there's always a time and place when it comes to the correct physical and mental health advice. But one shouldn't be confused with the other. If I'm talking with a person, and I can tell their mental health around their body and fitness is bad, I'm changing my approach. But the underlying message is the same. And for some people, we do need to be honest - even if it hurts. I'd rather see you with hurt feelings for a couple of hours, than a 3rd heart attack before you're 35.
    I also completely believe in calories in/calories out, regardless if it's not 100% accurate. I also weigh myself every day. Weighing myself every day has no negative effect on me, though I know a lot of people that say it would. For me, it's just an additional data point - and it's the final point, as Mitchell pointed out, to see if my calorie counting is accurate.

    I fucking hate that he is considered controversial. Just shows how socially and emotionally dumb a lot of people are these days, with no ability to read the intention of the person speaking, taking no time to think before they speak.

    I didn't want this video to end, I was enjoying it that much.
    Side note.. I just lost 8lbs in the past month and all I have done differently was started lifting weights. 25-30 mins a day, 4-6 days a week, 3 sets of 3, upper body/core/legs. all with a very basic setup of a bench, a handful of random steel dumbells and a curl bar. The weird/concerning part is that I'm already very lean. 5'11 and 167lbs (now 159lbs). I don't know where it went and I don't know how to counter it. I literally can't afford to eat more than the 4-5 times a day I already do. I eat a lot for a guy my size, all very well balanced thanks to my extremely supportive wife. It's 5:30am and I'm already starving lol.

    I love to hate on Greg because one of my best friend idolizes him WAAYYYY too much. But to be honest i've learned alot from him, but his takes are very VERY bodybuilder biased, which is fine. I just wish there was more bodybuilders who would take inspo from other athletes and what they eat or do for a healthy body.
    I myself come from at tumbling and gymnastics bias, and honestly bodybuilders have very bad training technique as well as eating for a well functioning well moving agile gymnastic body.
