yes, very articulate. unfortunately nothing he says really makes sense. at 4:50 he says a sphere lets you dissipate heat quickly, which is wrong, the sphere has the lowest surface for any given volume, so bad heat dissipation. he already said that in cold climate animals have short limps, they try to become a sphere so they dissipate low heat. at 2:20 he says asians the best cold adapted. at 8:30 he says since blacks are the best heat adapted, they tend to store fat the worst. then at 8:40 he says asians get ripped since they have trouble storing fat.
@@maxjk1143 It makes sense, you just didn't understand. Cold climate animals do not become spherical, they have short limbs and large torsos to keep bodyheat high and blood close to the heart. He doesn't say Asians struggle, he says that the social pressure to be thin means they start at a lower bf% and therefore seem to get ripped easier, but should've clarified that's social and not genetic.
@@maxjk1143 Umm....a sphere has more exposed surface, when you put it on top of another shape. That's what he meant. A bicep, for example, that looks more spherical, has more exposed surface for its volume than a bicep that conforms more to the skeleton and surrounding muscles. Because proportionally less of its area is sitting next to the skeleton or other muscles. More of it is protruding out away from the body and out into the big wide world. And being most cold adapted, doesn't mean storing most fat. Fat is not the best solution to retaining heat. It's more a last-ditch band-aid, and more to do with storing energy, than retaining heat. A seal isn't superbly cold-adapted because it has more fat. An obese dude has way thicker fat than a seal. The seal is cold-adapted, because of its shape. If it kept the same amount of fat, but that fat was in the shape of a bunch of "bubbly" muscles, it would lose more heat. It doesn't have long arms and legs sticking out, acting like heatsink fins.

sick of not being able to talk about things like this. Everyone gets so defensive about skin color and cannot accept that there are biological differences of all races which is actually cool af to think about how we are all human, yet so different. Loved listening to this. 2-month post comment update: Look at the cute little keyboard warriors trying to one-up one another with their “intellect” and have nothing to do better with their lives. To those who understood the positivity of the original comment, you rock. To the incels who need sunlight and a bit of grass between their fingers, you are a part of the problem. I come back to this post after 2-months and am confused what any of you are confused about? I’m assuming it hurts you to think beyond the usual 1-dimensional thinking you’re accustomed to but do yourself a favor and hop off the internet and find a productive outlet to expand your inability to critically think beyond what you see with your eyes. See you in another 2-months 👍
Probably partially because you allude there are differences between skin colors, but that has almost nothing to do with it. Significant differences were observed between west Africans and south Africans, moreso than between blacks and whites as a whole, for instance. It's probably best to just discuss differences in body compositions overall. Otherwise someone will think 'this is a black trait' and 'this is a white trait' when it is far more specific than that, and we make silly perceived distinctions based on skin color, while they are much more specific than that.
@@flareshifttExactly. The whole discussion felt like those had by 1940s eugenics. Instead of just talking about different body compositions and advantage/disadvantages. Very pretentious discussion imo.
My 2 favorite guys, I’m still a novice in this world but I love both these guys content. Been listening to Dr. Mike all morning then this pops up, gotta love it!
Damn...Dr. Mikes dry humour and sarcasm is some of the best in the world. Just slips things in there so nonchalant. Like the veins..."yea, there they are (raises eyebrows real quick)." Can't help but laugh and rewind to listen to them a few times. Definitely a good dude to be around and just roast each other I bet.
Wow 🤩…. I’m Puerto Rican ..mixture of three races…Spaniard,African and Native Indians… BUT, this has got to be of the most compelling, interesting and knowledgeable conversation ever in regards to health. You guys should write a book 📕
True and Native Americans(native american indians as you write) are part of the mongoloid race for the most part..but actually not 100% mongoloid..they are like 65-70% north-east asian(mongoloid) and 30-35% middle eastern farmers (caucasian) so you thechnically a mix of the 3 biggest races
@@Momoa786native Americans aren't part middle Eastern farmer, the heck. They're mostly east Asian with some pan-eurasian (specifically a group referred to as ancient north eurasians, basically white people but pan-eurasian is a better term)and yes this is actual science
I loved this conversation. Dr. Mike was respectful and as always provided us a plethora of facts. I think the discord between these two is awesome, and I wish more people could have conversations like this and see it for what it is. Also, just as they both attested to. Looking at others physique for inspiration is great but knowing you have your own unique genetic and dispositions and can only become the best version of yourself is the best piece of advice one could gain on this journey to transform yourself
The mental and verbal gymnastics required and performed in order for this conversation take place are commendable. And as a black man of West African decent I can definitely attest to the truth about us having small calves! ✌🏾✌🏾
Well son, let me break it to ya! Many of the differences this dude puts on race are actually due to culture and nutrition rather than race. Although certain features do tend to be pooled along racial lines, there isn’t a hard line. That’s why you WILL get Asians with builds more like a black dude especially as Asia becomes more westernized, or whites with bodies more akin to older generations of Asians with long torsos and short legs! In addition, many stereotypes just not true! Example, the black versus white jumping myth. Reason? We tend to see high jumping blacks in basketball, a household sport ,while whites who jump just as higher….. sometimes higher, tend to be concentrated in volleyball……. Not very household of a sport this we never see them. But they’re there
@@channelwhoa66 the differences he talked about are real. we have seen them, of course on averages. yes you can find white people that jump higher than any black dude and you can find black dudes with calves bigger than any white dude, but on average you see differences in the numbers.
@@paulogaspar8295 TF?! Did I deny that?! I said, that many of those physical differences are due to social circumstances rather than average genetics associated with race. And this dude is doing what scientists should NOT do and is facilitating the dissemination of misinformation. Scientists should be descriptive while caveating that in THIS case, it’s not known whether it’s genetic or social environment!
@@channelwhoa66social circumstances don’t change skeletal and muscular genetics bro. Oh I’m just gonna eat chicken all day I seem to have grown extra wingspan. Oh I play Minecraft all day and never leave my house hence I have great calves. The races are different just how YHWH made them.
@@a.c.slater573 Um, yes they do. The average Asian Americans have very different builds than the average person in Asia. Also….. remember how people the world over have gotten taller due to different nutrition. Finally, it’s a known fact that, nutrition affects torso to leg length ratios. Learn something. FOOL
This is an extremely interesting topic that I'm glad you guys covered. I, myself as a Korean, have a really short torso and short limbs. Didn't get blessed with great genetics body wise, but did get blessed with the mental aspect to make the best of what I have.
Genetics plays a role, however, I know tons of asian who were quite lean on their countries, they come to the US, and then become morbid or quite fat, and when they came back to their countries, in a couple of months they are lean again, so definitely the lifestyle and foods that they eat there is the real key. Best
not just the foods they eat but also the oils they use to cook food with as well as the oils used in fast food and while eating out. Its usually the cheapest stuff one can find in USA like canola and cottonseed oils
I have never been to America, but from what I've see US-American food seems to be big in portion. If you have a group of people that overall often a little smaller in body size eating suddenly a lot bigger portions of course they'll gain weight.
Super interesting stuff! Love that you’re talking about it on an open forum. So stupid that topics like this risk getting canceled/banned. Nothing racist and about it, just facts
Why is it medical nonsense? Mike has PHD pretty much in this field, it baffles me y’all question him SOOOOOO much, without any evidence otherwise, it’s all real medical knowledge and easily tracked through genetics research man, also just not being a fucking idiot and being able to make simple observations of the world around you and the information one is presented with… that also helps.
@@coenduda7746 it’s “nonsense” because it’s comical and whether it’s true or not doesn’t make it the least intellectual part of the conversation when it comes to genetics. Hence. “Medical nonsense”. I love Mike and Jonni’s legit advise. I just appreciated the comical side of them as well.
I always found this topic in bodybuilding exceptionally interesting, unfortunate it goes so untapped. One of my favorite aspects of bodybuilding is just seeing the different shapes and forms the human body can come in. Great video.
I'm so glad that Dr Mike clarified that either way you just do your best. I run into way too many guys who neglect parts of their training or even don't train at all because of their 'genetics'.
@@whiskeyneat97I'm the opposite . I got bullied for being fat and started training and started manhandling them in the wrestling room and setting Powerlifting records at my school .
Very informative👍👍👍 Genetics is the most important thing for excelling in bodybuilding. No amount of hard work, discipline, or PEDs can change it. Dr. Mike has said it right that we have our own hills to climb.
Question for all of you here. Dr Mike talks about the difference of body types between the 3 main "races" of Humans Me being asian i kinda wonder What are the strong points of our genetics in terms of aesthetics, body types and athleticism, strength and speed.
This reminds me of the videos I saw from Team 3D Alpha a couple years ago going over genetics around the world. Extremely informative and very interesting stuff
I just feel blessed that it turns out that my genetics have allowed me to build a pretty good physique with just three years of consistent training, and I'm 58 now. Not looking to go competitive, but with my results at this age, I probably could have had that option when I was younger.
Incredibly tactful and interesting discussion. I barely feel like i learn anything from youtube but i learned a lot from this and left with a better attitude
I actually find this subject very fascinating. Anything dealing with genetics is always interesting. However the point he made regarding Asian people being able to get really ripped, I think you also have to factor in the cultural influences that impact that as well. Asians eat very lean in general. It's not to say there aren't any over weight Asian people, but I think their diet in general is conducive to them being lean and culturally that is considered an attractive aesthetic to most Asian cultures, I think. The sumo wrestlers are an exception to that.
I believe that it is very frowned upon for someone to be big in Asian culture, whether we're talking fat or jacked. There, the most socially acceptable look is to be as skinny as you can. If someone participates in a sport it is more widely accepted though (incl. sumo), and of course you will see some changes in attitude over time as especially younger people are exposed to foreigners more easily via the Internet and media.
but its not just a cultural standard, there must be some genetic component.. Like he mentioned their glute maxs tend to be smaller even if they train just as much.. This is even more prominent in asian women who struggle to grow their glutes the most out of any ethnic group probably ever. I'm asian, im not looking for excuses but im curious as to why these seem to be common trends. Also im not built like the typical asian he described so im especially not looking for excuses for myself. I actually have zero interest in body building and more intrigued by athletics. all my muscle insertions are short and tend to be more bubbly despite being small,, my shin is more achilles than calf.. I think this might be a result of fast twitch bias since i love jumping as high as I can. i agree with Dr Mike that fast twitch is overstated, but there is definitely some effect on appearance based on fiber distribution
Yeah, in countries like Japan they eat overall much healthier. Smaller portion sizes, less processed foods. We should definitely learn from Japan so we can improve our own health, as obesity is a huge problem here in the west, but not so much in Japan and Singapore.
@@lonelylama5222not Korea tho. We eat a ton of red meat, fried foods, cheese, processed foods, etc. Growing up my mom fed me red meat damn near every meal. Just look at alot of the Korean foods that are popular globally- Korean bbq, Korean corn dog (an American corn dog on steroids), the street food. I couldn’t put on weight if I tried my best (and I have), and it’s not just cuz of youth anymore, as I’m in my nearly 30 now and so many guys my age who used to be skinny growing up are overweight now. Also you see a lot of those Asian mukbangers who eat like a pig and look skinny af. Diet could be a reason, but I think there are may be other factors at play.
I've been wondering for 20yrs why, me and other black guys, got skinny chicken legs and all the asian people (male & female) had big/thick calves!! Thanks to Dr. Mike for finally providing an answer!! I guess I'll just keep blasting my calves and praying for the best...
I really appreciate this conversation - back during my undergrad this stuff was part of my education in human biology, anthropology, anatomy and evolution. Its completely ok to talk about this stuff people. Another thumbs up!
This is the first time I've seen a bodybuilder not waving his arms or playing with his arm muscles while talking. This means that Dr. Mike Israetel is a confident person who draws the listener's attention not to his muscles, but to the topic of the conversation and the facts. I'm grateful to you for this video, I found it interesting.
this is super interesting. with me being black it blew my mind how accurate the things dr mike was saying. the short torso, long limbs, and even the small calves(Unfortunately😢) i can all identify on my body and my dads. as for the low hanging kevin levrone triceps im in the middle. my lateral head is very high but the long head of my tricep is damn near touching my elbow. its an awkward look but i think the lateral head matters alot more for aesthetics from the front view. if your lateral head hangs low it gives that sweep look across your arm when resting like kevin levrone. if your lateral head inserts close to your elbow your lucky af

I'd totally watch you two just chilling watching TV or playing games on twitch or something. You two just have that thing where you might not be close but you just get each other. Effortless.
Very informative and interesting discussion. It's really a shame that anything even insinuating that people are different is taboo to the point where science has to shy away from studying very important human health topics. People are different, it's a scientific fact and simply the reality of the situation. It shouldn't be politically incorrect to acknowledge it.
Very cool video and chat! I think the "thick skin" is more to do with water. I have heard of coaches having difficulty cutting water from certain athletes from hot countries
Nice point, seems reasonable, also, regarding asian leaness, I think is has to do with their cultural diet and gastronomy, they eat super clean and tend not to be full, anyway, Ive seen fat asians, specially in business departaments.
holy shit, this may be the most educational video ever. I can't wait to tell all my black friends that they have small calves, and all my Asian friends that they have small asses. I have no friends.
Came over from Dr Mike's page, probably one of his only female fans, and I must say I loved this discussion. A great example of intelligent and informed conversation versus the kind of racial and sexist crap that ACTUALLY gets you cancelled. Great content guys!
I heard a guy in the military say when he was in Africa there were tribesman who's blood was adapted to clotting very quickly. So if they sustained a wound from a cut or a bite, their bodies would stop the bleeding more quickly. I think he said it something to do with adapting to very little water.
Maybe, but in Africa there's quite a few genetic outliers. Sickle cells for hemocytes apparently evolved so that people got less of some regional diseases. There are quite a few other examples. Our time with geographic isolation wasn't long, but it was long enough for genes to be selected. I unfortunately was born with a larger torso and live in a hot country, so... Sometimes we are just not gonna be very adequate to our environment.
@@badart3204 I find that a bit curious tbh... Because you have to take into account that Asia and Europe aren't really their own continents, they're both part of the same landmass the same way Africa is, and I gotta say the difference between Chinese people, the Slavs, the Indians, and the British is pretty obvious. Eurasia seems to be a pretty genetically diverse place.
@@BootyGoblinesque Only skin-deep. Genetic variation isn't always expressed through phenotypes (outward appearances) and the way I like to see it is, how many letters are in your genetic group? Whites and Asians might be far away from Blacks, and they have W X Y Z. Africans on the other hand just cover a bigger group of letters: A B C D E F G H I J etc. That's more generic variation, even if they look about as similar to each other as Whites do to each other.
Important thing is hypo/hyperthyroidism. Most " hardgainers" probably just dont eat but some have hyperthyroidism and that can make muscle- growth difficult as can hypothyroidism. Both unhealthy too. Both conditions can go overlooked for a long time and show up later in life too. Both easily treatable.
It makes sense that North/East Asians are cold adapted because of the climate, but that makes me wonder about South and Southeast Asians. I would presume they would need to be heat-adapted, as well, similar to Africans. Indian people are quite literally of Caucasian descent, as in descended from people from the Caucasus mountains.
a lot of history that wasn't documented until recently. Its hard to give a blanket statement that indians are of caucasian descent. we can only speculate but asians in general have bigger calves because of the mountainous terrain
Indians are a mix of caucasoid Iranian population groups and native dravidoid Vedic inhabitants that are closest related to Australioid populations in Papua and AUS. Same applies to SEA populations but instead of caucasoids it was mongoloids that came over

sick of not being able to talk about things like this. Everyone gets so defensive about skin color and cannot accept that there are biological differences of all races which is actually cool af to think about how we are all human, yet so different. Loved listening to this.
2-month post comment update: Look at the cute little keyboard warriors trying to one-up one another with their “intellect” and have nothing to do better with their lives. To those who understood the positivity of the original comment, you rock. To the incels who need sunlight and a bit of grass between their fingers, you are a part of the problem. I come back to this post after 2-months and am confused what any of you are confused about? I’m assuming it hurts you to think beyond the usual 1-dimensional thinking you’re accustomed to but do yourself a favor and hop off the internet and find a productive outlet to expand your inability to critically think beyond what you see with your eyes. See you in another 2-months 👍
Yeah, it's like dwarves, elves and the khajit
Probably partially because you allude there are differences between skin colors, but that has almost nothing to do with it. Significant differences were observed between west Africans and south Africans, moreso than between blacks and whites as a whole, for instance.
It's probably best to just discuss differences in body compositions overall. Otherwise someone will think 'this is a black trait' and 'this is a white trait' when it is far more specific than that, and we make silly perceived distinctions based on skin color, while they are much more specific than that.
Because unfortunately for many there are definitive winners and definitive loosers
@@flareshifttExactly. The whole discussion felt like those had by 1940s eugenics.
Instead of just talking about different body compositions and advantage/disadvantages.
Very pretentious discussion imo.
@@prestonfisher2632no it’s not
My 2 favorite guys, I’m still a novice in this world but I love both these guys content. Been listening to Dr. Mike all morning then this pops up, gotta love it!
Damn...Dr. Mikes dry humour and sarcasm is some of the best in the world. Just slips things in there so nonchalant. Like the veins..."yea, there they are (raises eyebrows real quick)." Can't help but laugh and rewind to listen to them a few times. Definitely a good dude to be around and just roast each other I bet.
@9:01 “he gots some titties and shit” lmaooo idk why but i lost it
Wow 🤩…. I’m Puerto Rican ..mixture of three races…Spaniard,African and Native Indians… BUT, this has got to be of the most compelling, interesting and knowledgeable conversation ever in regards to health. You guys should write a book 📕
I noticed the biggest variation in the Latino community .
True and Native Americans(native american indians as you write) are part of the mongoloid race for the most part..but actually not 100% mongoloid..they are like 65-70% north-east asian(mongoloid) and 30-35% middle eastern farmers (caucasian) so you thechnically a mix of the 3 biggest races
@@Momoa786native Americans aren't part middle Eastern farmer, the heck. They're mostly east Asian with some pan-eurasian (specifically a group referred to as ancient north eurasians, basically white people but pan-eurasian is a better term)and yes this is actual science
@@Momoa786Tf is with this psedoscience lol
I loved this conversation. Dr. Mike was respectful and as always provided us a plethora of facts. I think the discord between these two is awesome, and I wish more people could have conversations like this and see it for what it is. Also, just as they both attested to. Looking at others physique for inspiration is great but knowing you have your own unique genetic and dispositions and can only become the best version of yourself is the best piece of advice one could gain on this journey to transform yourself
Two great characters in this field, always a joy listening to each and especially together.
These two dudes are the reason I’m beasting my gains in the gym on my two-a-day routine. Sick results in just 6 months. Update coming soon!
Where at
Show the update 😮
One of the best bodybuilding conversations Ive heard, good shit Jonny n Mike
Thank you for being brave enough to have this open anthropological discussion
Bro what the fuck is ur comment 😂😂😂😂 Yea so brave man
@@gttc321Brother, Dr. Mike is a legit academic. Discussing race differences is REAL RISK for him.
The mental and verbal gymnastics required and performed in order for this conversation take place are commendable.
And as a black man of West African decent I can definitely attest to the truth about us having small calves! ✌🏾✌🏾
Well son, let me break it to ya! Many of the differences this dude puts on race are actually due to culture and nutrition rather than race. Although certain features do tend to be pooled along racial lines, there isn’t a hard line. That’s why you WILL get Asians with builds more like a black dude especially as Asia becomes more westernized, or whites with bodies more akin to older generations of Asians with long torsos and short legs!
In addition, many stereotypes just not true! Example, the black versus white jumping myth. Reason? We tend to see high jumping blacks in basketball, a household sport ,while whites who jump just as higher….. sometimes higher, tend to be concentrated in volleyball……. Not very household of a sport this we never see them. But they’re there
@@channelwhoa66 the differences he talked about are real. we have seen them, of course on averages. yes you can find white people that jump higher than any black dude and you can find black dudes with calves bigger than any white dude, but on average you see differences in the numbers.
@@paulogaspar8295 TF?! Did I deny that?! I said, that many of those physical differences are due to social circumstances rather than average genetics associated with race. And this dude is doing what scientists should NOT do and is facilitating the dissemination of misinformation. Scientists should be descriptive while caveating that in THIS case, it’s not known whether it’s genetic or social environment!
@@channelwhoa66social circumstances don’t change skeletal and muscular genetics bro. Oh I’m just gonna eat chicken all day I seem to have grown extra wingspan. Oh I play Minecraft all day and never leave my house hence I have great calves. The races are different just how YHWH made them.
@@a.c.slater573 Um, yes they do. The average Asian Americans have very different builds than the average person in Asia.
Also….. remember how people the world over have gotten taller due to different nutrition.
Finally, it’s a known fact that, nutrition affects torso to leg length ratios.
Learn something. FOOL
Now this is an official collab!Two of my favorite fitness educators.
man I love how healthy this interaction is.
This was the most informative Muscle related content I’ve ever seen, the fact that it’s Free is almost ridiculous, but very much appreciated.
I really like these two together, you guys make a great duo and the energy and vibe is super chill and fantastic. Great video as always
This collab made me so happy. Juji has always been such a cool dude. Great video Jonni!
Love it when you and Mike do content together ❤
This is real conversations! A celebrations of differences and the appreciation of the different forms of human physiques.
Loved this. Anything to get me more motivated and fuel my next work out.
Awesome! Thank you!
This is an extremely interesting topic that I'm glad you guys covered. I, myself as a Korean, have a really short torso and short limbs. Didn't get blessed with great genetics body wise, but did get blessed with the mental aspect to make the best of what I have.
Genetics plays a role, however, I know tons of asian who were quite lean on their countries, they come to the US, and then become morbid or quite fat, and when they came back to their countries, in a couple of months they are lean again, so definitely the lifestyle and foods that they eat there is the real key. Best
not just the foods they eat but also the oils they use to cook food with as well as the oils used in fast food and while eating out. Its usually the cheapest stuff one can find in USA like canola and cottonseed oils
@@Gainsforlife What evidence is there that cottonseed and canola oil promote higher adiposity than other cooking oils?
@@Gainsforlife bro, Delibery or restaurant food here in China is swimming in cheap oil, I am telling you
@@Gainsforlife that makes no difference what so ever in terms of calories
I have never been to America, but from what I've see US-American food seems to be big in portion. If you have a group of people that overall often a little smaller in body size eating suddenly a lot bigger portions of course they'll gain weight.
Great open conversation! Wish life could be like that everywhere
Super interesting stuff! Love that you’re talking about it on an open forum. So stupid that topics like this risk getting canceled/banned. Nothing racist and about it, just facts
Loved this episode! Great conversation. Hope to see more content and collaborations between you two 🙏🏼💪🏼
Mike and Jonni should have a weekly medical science nonsense show just like this.
Yeah they do a really good job bouncing ideas off each other I just subscribed to both of them from this video
Why is it medical nonsense? Mike has PHD pretty much in this field, it baffles me y’all question him SOOOOOO much, without any evidence otherwise, it’s all real medical knowledge and easily tracked through genetics research man, also just not being a fucking idiot and being able to make simple observations of the world around you and the information one is presented with… that also helps.
@@coenduda7746 it’s “nonsense” because it’s comical and whether it’s true or not doesn’t make it the least intellectual part of the conversation when it comes to genetics. Hence. “Medical nonsense”. I love Mike and Jonni’s legit advise. I just appreciated the comical side of them as well.
I always found this topic in bodybuilding exceptionally interesting, unfortunate it goes so untapped. One of my favorite aspects of bodybuilding is just seeing the different shapes and forms the human body can come in. Great video.
Race realism is a forbidden topic. You link anything genetic to skill or ability then you're not far from eugenics.
Dude , dr. Mike is so knowledgeable is absolutely amazing .
I'm so glad that Dr Mike clarified that either way you just do your best. I run into way too many guys who neglect parts of their training or even don't train at all because of their 'genetics'.
This is elite scientific bodybuilding content. Thank you gentleman both for this collab
That is unscientific and pesudoscience.
This attitude is what I love about the bodybuilding community, thank you.
As someone that is starting their fitness journey at 26. This is a very interesting conversation. Thank you for the great collab!
I'm glad you found the conversation interesting! Best of luck on your fitness journey!

@@jackreacher2095 you were probably taller than 5'0" though. I wasn't manhandling anybody lol.
I actually prefer watching Mike as a guest on other people's channels than hosting his own videos 😂 Thanks for the upload, was a fun watch!
We honestly need more realtalk about subjects like this. super interesting stuff
finally ppl willing to have real conversations about this kind of thing! Dope video
Very informative👍👍👍
Genetics is the most important thing for excelling in bodybuilding. No amount of hard work, discipline, or PEDs can change it.
Dr. Mike has said it right that we have our own hills to climb.
Problem is no one actually knows there's genetics and they quit because they think there a friggen genetic scientist.
Question for all of you here. Dr Mike talks about the difference of body types between the 3 main "races" of Humans Me being asian i kinda wonder What are the strong points of our genetics in terms of aesthetics, body types and athleticism, strength and speed.
I would love to see a semi-regular podcast between these two where they go over interesting journal publications.
This reminds me of the videos I saw from Team 3D Alpha a couple years ago going over genetics around the world. Extremely informative and very interesting stuff
This guy is hidden gem.
Some of dr. Mikes best work. He navigated a heated subject in a really professional way
I just feel blessed that it turns out that my genetics have allowed me to build a pretty good physique with just three years of consistent training, and I'm 58 now. Not looking to go competitive, but with my results at this age, I probably could have had that option when I was younger.
I don't know how to explain it but this was such a cozy video.
Incredibly tactful and interesting discussion. I barely feel like i learn anything from youtube but i learned a lot from this and left with a better attitude
Awesome humble host 👏. Ty & gj bra. Calm, cool, & collected.
I actually find this subject very fascinating. Anything dealing with genetics is always interesting. However the point he made regarding Asian people being able to get really ripped, I think you also have to factor in the cultural influences that impact that as well. Asians eat very lean in general. It's not to say there aren't any over weight Asian people, but I think their diet in general is conducive to them being lean and culturally that is considered an attractive aesthetic to most Asian cultures, I think. The sumo wrestlers are an exception to that.
I believe that it is very frowned upon for someone to be big in Asian culture, whether we're talking fat or jacked. There, the most socially acceptable look is to be as skinny as you can. If someone participates in a sport it is more widely accepted though (incl. sumo), and of course you will see some changes in attitude over time as especially younger people are exposed to foreigners more easily via the Internet and media.
I've never seen an Asian person on My 600 Pound Life 😂. There are overweight Asians but never extreme haha
but its not just a cultural standard, there must be some genetic component.. Like he mentioned their glute maxs tend to be smaller even if they train just as much.. This is even more prominent in asian women who struggle to grow their glutes the most out of any ethnic group probably ever. I'm asian, im not looking for excuses but im curious as to why these seem to be common trends. Also im not built like the typical asian he described so im especially not looking for excuses for myself. I actually have zero interest in body building and more intrigued by athletics. all my muscle insertions are short and tend to be more bubbly despite being small,, my shin is more achilles than calf.. I think this might be a result of fast twitch bias since i love jumping as high as I can. i agree with Dr Mike that fast twitch is overstated, but there is definitely some effect on appearance based on fiber distribution
Yeah, in countries like Japan they eat overall much healthier. Smaller portion sizes, less processed foods. We should definitely learn from Japan so we can improve our own health, as obesity is a huge problem here in the west, but not so much in Japan and Singapore.
@@lonelylama5222not Korea tho. We eat a ton of red meat, fried foods, cheese, processed foods, etc. Growing up my mom fed me red meat damn near every meal. Just look at alot of the Korean foods that are popular globally- Korean bbq, Korean corn dog (an American corn dog on steroids), the street food. I couldn’t put on weight if I tried my best (and I have), and it’s not just cuz of youth anymore, as I’m in my nearly 30 now and so many guys my age who used to be skinny growing up are overweight now. Also you see a lot of those Asian mukbangers who eat like a pig and look skinny af. Diet could be a reason, but I think there are may be other factors at play.

It is refreshing to hear someone have the courage to talk about this.
Bro, that's legit the best video I've ever seen about bodybuilding. It's totally in a core level.
I've been wondering for 20yrs why, me and other black guys, got skinny chicken legs and all the asian people (male & female) had big/thick calves!! Thanks to Dr. Mike for finally providing an answer!! I guess I'll just keep blasting my calves and praying for the best...
Brilliant ,relaxed , informative and refreshing interview.
Strive to be the best version of yourself and look to others for inspiration.
❤❤❤❤
Yo Jonni, love this colab and conversation topic. Really interesting.
I really appreciate this conversation - back during my undergrad this stuff was part of my education in human biology, anthropology, anatomy and evolution. Its completely ok to talk about this stuff people. Another thumbs up!
This is the first time I've seen a bodybuilder not waving his arms or playing with his arm muscles while talking. This means that Dr. Mike Israetel is a confident person who draws the listener's attention not to his muscles, but to the topic of the conversation and the facts. I'm grateful to you for this video, I found it interesting.
Love the honest scientific approach.
Isn't there also a slight difference in natural test levels between the three racial groups?
@EmoEmuthey arent not touching that subject
You guys NAILED this topic. Fantastic video! 🙏👏
There have been a lot of really dope collabs after this year's O.
Even tho im 7 months late, this was one of the best videos regarding bodybuilding. Mike is so real and harsh about it, i love it.
"Information was Fascinating" Workouts are doing well✌️Thank you men.Both of you are helpful❣️ Work ethics👌
Our pleasure!
that Dr. has my sense of humour and he's easy to listen to, well done both!
So much information. This is the best. Very well done gentleman.
this is super interesting. with me being black it blew my mind how accurate the things dr mike was saying. the short torso, long limbs, and even the small calves(Unfortunately😢) i can all identify on my body and my dads. as for the low hanging kevin levrone triceps im in the middle. my lateral head is very high but the long head of my tricep is damn near touching my elbow. its an awkward look but i think the lateral head matters alot more for aesthetics from the front view. if your lateral head hangs low it gives that sweep look across your arm when resting like kevin levrone. if your lateral head inserts close to your elbow your lucky af
You guys are my inspiration for my journey. The motivation skill technique knowledge is epic! But Jonni did you give Dr.Mike his high protein bar? Oh and need more WAY more of this right here
Haha, don't worry, I didn't forget to give Dr. Mike his high protein bar! I made sure he had his post-workout fuel. And don't worry, we'll bring you more epic content, just like you asked!
@@JonniShreve 🤣🤣 Man that's epic!! So can't wait to meet you and Dr.Mike in person someday. I'll have to bring you my last jelly donut aye……. But on a real note both of you guys give me motivation and inspiration to be the best me I am iron sharpens iron keep dream chasing
I love these video collabs with Dr. Mike, huge fan of you both and the chemistry is great
I'd totally watch you two just chilling watching TV or playing games on twitch or something. You two just have that thing where you might not be close but you just get each other. Effortless.
Really cool topic to discuss, I’ve came to the same conclusions myself when analyzing top bodybuilders with different strengths for each race.
Yay! Loved this video, 2 great guys, love it!
Amazing video guys. First time at channel and listening to Dr Mike. Great great stuff
What a good video! Very educational with no bs, thank you lads!
First time coming across your channel, and I, must say you're one of the best interviewers in RUclips.
Great Interview as well.
Very informative and interesting discussion. It's really a shame that anything even insinuating that people are different is taboo to the point where science has to shy away from studying very important human health topics. People are different, it's a scientific fact and simply the reality of the situation. It shouldn't be politically incorrect to acknowledge it.
The best discussion I’ve ever heard about race and bodybuilding
Very cool video and chat!
I think the "thick skin" is more to do with water. I have heard of coaches having difficulty cutting water from certain athletes from hot countries
Nice point, seems reasonable, also, regarding asian leaness, I think is has to do with their cultural diet and gastronomy, they eat super clean and tend not to be full, anyway, Ive seen fat asians, specially in business departaments.
Be inspired
Be motivated
Be the best you can be.
holy shit, this may be the most educational video ever. I can't wait to tell all my black friends that they have small calves, and all my Asian friends that they have small asses. I have no friends.
Came over from Dr Mike's page, probably one of his only female fans, and I must say I loved this discussion. A great example of intelligent and informed conversation versus the kind of racial and sexist crap that ACTUALLY gets you cancelled. Great content guys!
I heard a guy in the military say when he was in Africa there were tribesman who's blood was adapted to clotting very quickly. So if they sustained a wound from a cut or a bite, their bodies would stop the bleeding more quickly. I think he said it something to do with adapting to very little water.
Maybe, but in Africa there's quite a few genetic outliers. Sickle cells for hemocytes apparently evolved so that people got less of some regional diseases. There are quite a few other examples. Our time with geographic isolation wasn't long, but it was long enough for genes to be selected.
I unfortunately was born with a larger torso and live in a hot country, so... Sometimes we are just not gonna be very adequate to our environment.
It's adapting to malaria, a disease that's facilitated by blood flow, not water.
Africa has far more genetic diversity than the rest of the world surprisingly enough so it is very possible.
@@badart3204 I find that a bit curious tbh... Because you have to take into account that Asia and Europe aren't really their own continents, they're both part of the same landmass the same way Africa is, and I gotta say the difference between Chinese people, the Slavs, the Indians, and the British is pretty obvious. Eurasia seems to be a pretty genetically diverse place.
@@BootyGoblinesque
Only skin-deep. Genetic variation isn't always expressed through phenotypes (outward appearances) and the way I like to see it is, how many letters are in your genetic group? Whites and Asians might be far away from Blacks, and they have W X Y Z.
Africans on the other hand just cover a bigger group of letters: A B C D E F G H I J etc.
That's more generic variation, even if they look about as similar to each other as Whites do to each other.
This was so entertaining and refreshing at the same time
Very Informative, And Entertaining!!
Nice Video 👍💪
I could listen to Mike all day.. what a dude
Am black but also appreciate other race physiques
Let's Go!!! Even Further!!!
Interesting and open conversation. Great content.
Only just started working out this year but my calves have always been big. Doing just one leg day per week has made them HUGE! Now I know why!
Important thing is hypo/hyperthyroidism. Most " hardgainers" probably just dont eat but some have hyperthyroidism and that can make muscle- growth difficult as can hypothyroidism. Both unhealthy too. Both conditions can go overlooked for a long time and show up later in life too. Both easily treatable.
Love the back and forth banter!
Lolll Dr. Mike was absolutely positive that Mini Mouse was in danger.
This video fire 🔥 class in session fam salute both of y'all 💪💯
This was incredibly informative. Thanks for sharing.
Nice to see its still possible to actually have this conversation - wouldn’t have called that.
Still effected by political correctness
It makes sense that North/East Asians are cold adapted because of the climate, but that makes me wonder about South and Southeast Asians. I would presume they would need to be heat-adapted, as well, similar to Africans. Indian people are quite literally of Caucasian descent, as in descended from people from the Caucasus mountains.
a lot of history that wasn't documented until recently. Its hard to give a blanket statement that indians are of caucasian descent. we can only speculate but asians in general have bigger calves because of the mountainous terrain
My parents are from north India. I have round bubbly muscles with a fair skin tone. Very aesthetic lol
I also have a grainy look when I’m shredded - so thin skin
thing is india is so big, and even comparing north indians vs south.. there is a huge disparity in the genetic make-up.@jumbo9386
Indians are a mix of caucasoid Iranian population groups and native dravidoid Vedic inhabitants that are closest related to Australioid populations in Papua and AUS. Same applies to SEA populations but instead of caucasoids it was mongoloids that came over
I’m Melanesian and my wife is Nigerian I’m interested to see how my son will turn out because I was very good at sport as a Commonwealth Athlete weightlifting for New Guinea & was good at Rugby cycling , cricket , sprinting etc and my Nigerian wife was an Olympian competed at the Sydney 2000 Olympics for Nigeria.
your son will be a freakin unit, thats what he will be. if you are expecting then congratulations. to be honest id advise you to push your son to sports if hes not intrested then atleast push him to be active. my family comes from a long line of heart kidney ,liver and diabetes both my father and grandfather didnt live to see 55 and not to mention the addictive gene passed down from gen to gen, im 18 now and i feel the affects of those weighing on me i wish that my father with his knowledge would have pushed me to be more active in my younger days knowing the trouble i may and probably will face in the future.. just to keep that in mind
“People of heat adapted climates” new politically correct phrasing
Doesn't really make alot of sense when you break that down as a sentence either.
