I just started super slow weight training, just at home with kettlebells, bands and bodyweight, about 20 min, 2X/week. Along with greatly increasing my protein intake (I needed to after over 30 years mostly vegan), and quitting refined sugar and flour, I can't believe how fast this is changing my body and I feel amazing. I've only done 3 workouts in the past 2 weeks and already visceral fat is shrinking and muscle and strength growing every day. This is it. How I wish I got this message 30 years ago. Better late than never!
I am! It's really good. Very succinct, more than any other source I've read on the subject. Somehow he and John Little have made a potentially boring topic exciting to learn!
Great interview. Going to get my 80 year old mother in law into the gym to start working out. I have been lifting slow with low weight & reps to failure & once again going to return to this style to recover from shoulder surgery.
Great interview. Glucose explained @ 39:30 fantastic. 45:30 5 most important things Simon Melov reversal to youthful expression of Mitochondria through hard training. Great. Movement is life. Movement against resistance excelerates it.
@@dtm4071 they use volume for technical moves, not all out maximums and all the time. Plus alot of them use drugs, have great genetics and periodise their training.
I'm very familiar with McGuff's work, but I don't know this channel and fully expected to leave the conversation after a quick listen, but I stayed for the duration. Good questions. I've tried to convince my skinny fat and running obsessed friends and relatives to stop being hamsters on the treadmill, but the power of zombie myths in popular media is strong so they continue to lose despite high effort.
I would like to see a comparison of photographic physical results between a bodybuilder following this very slow rep protocol and a conventional bodybuilder using a faster 2-4 second rep protocol, the latter being what most bodybuilders have been following for decades.
@@marksustainable5227 use the same people..measure muscle mass..do 1 type of workout. Then take months off until back to same muscle mass and neural networks reset keep diet consistent then do the slow style ...see if any difference??
He lost me when he gave his opinion about something he hasn't/won't even watch! If he watched Game Changers he'd be forced to rethink his position and he knows it. He knows it intuitively. If you any these guys watched the doc they would be shocked to learn that it's ANTI-Government!!

Great job. It is the best way to train. Read Dr. Mcguff's book

46:18 Nature to be commanded must be obeyed 😮
50:00 movement against resistance is life elevated 😮
💪

Super slow weight training is amazing
Thanks so much! Really appreciate this video from both of you. Your time is so important yet you took the time to make this and share it. PRICELESS
Thank you. Let us know if there are other guests you would like to see.
GREAT!
Thank you, Dr. McGuff for the wealth of knowledge you share here.
Great interview
Thank you.
@@WildWarriorNutrition follow up question....is 30 seconds up then 30 seconds down reasonable??
An excellent interview. Great questions. Thank you.

Volume is the enemy, for practically any form of training for any sport. Short and intense infrequent workouts are absolute key.
not really
That's why all the top, successful athletes in the world use Volume and not HIT....
At 68 volume is working great for me but hay in time we try them all and eat the meat and leave the bones
@@dtm4071 they use volume for technical moves, not all out maximums and all the time. Plus alot of them use drugs, have great genetics and periodise their training.
@@johnmortimerjbmfitness7753 Lol so why hasn't HIT got you big? where are all the big HITters?

People don't listen, don't waste your 😂

Most bodybuilders do about a 3 second reps. Maybe faster.
When I'm at the gym I used to time people and most sets last about 25 seconds for 10 reps.
I'd like to see a strength increase comparison instead.
Then again how do you control for genetic differences and lots of other variables. Twin study?

Really good interview, lots of useful info.
Invaluable information.
Dr mcguff is awesome
The best. Read his chapter on fatloss
Great interview!
Thanks. Let us know if there are people you would like us to reach out to for an interview.
I’d love to know what Dr McGuffs personal workout and diet plan are
We'll see if we can get him Back on.
Honest question: what about sports that are basically all strength? Like Men’s gymnastics. Or various weight lifting sports?
This form of work is great for strength. When it comes to sport though, you have to practice those specific skills
I like the rep speed as a measure of overtraining 🤔
If one can't access any gyms, is there big 5 exercises that one can do at home? What would they be equivalent in say calesthenics exercises?
Slow push ups, slow bodyweight squats, slow pull ups, planks, and slow overhead dumbbell press. Any isometric exercise is great too
Hahaha Did he say "The Govenator"?
