Hey legends - I've been mixing calisthenics and weights for a few years now, moving well and looking good. It's been a fun way to get the best of both worlds 😊 Timestamps: 00:00 - Worst Fitness Mistakes 13:35 - The Negativity Advantage 26:04 - Optimal Workout Myth 44:56 - Getting Bigger AND Stronger 57:44 - Low Reps Vs. High Reps 01:06:51 - Choose The Right Exercise For You 01:13:38 - Why Stretch Partials? 01:28:21 - How Much Volume?
My main takeaways: 1) Be process-oriented rather than result-oriented (better results, more sustainable). 2) Lower weight / higher reps are kinder to the body and can achieve very similar results for most goals. 3) Build a comprehensive system that is adaptive, rather than focusing on a binary right/wrong approach.
I am a huge fan of Dr. Helms, he brings immense contributions the the natty world (with Omar Isuf and Dr. Trexler on Iron Culture, in 3DMJ, his research, etc.). He is an outstanding communicator and bring tons to the table, and so do you. And this collaboration was one that I wasn't expecting and didn't know that I needed. Great interview and discussions. I am more from a weight training background and am just now dipping my toes into calisthenics (so the opposite path from you) and your content has been great. You did an amazing job with the interview and I hope to see you and Helms exchange more often
To Dr. Helms' point on not even having to walk for work, I would contend that as smartphones take the place of PCs and laptops, it's never become easier to remain productive while on the go thanks to much greater portability.
On the topic of motivation, for me it started as a negative, I was so disgusted with both my performance and physique, now I've gotten from 85kg down to 67.5kg and gained some muscle. Now my motivation is "What is my limit?" and "I feel so much better now and I wonder how much better it can still get" kinda
My motivation is my age unfortunately and I smoked ciggerettes for 30 yrs,then I felt I needed to stop immediately. It was so bad. I got over it and a yr and a half later Im commuting on my fitness bike 14 miles almost every single day. Lifting weights, using my rowing machine and treadmill in the winter.. Im 54.
This is the best podcast so far imo. It has most deep dive advice for people who actually know a bit about training already. Alot of the others, no offense, you talk about the same things which is understandable. I wish you would do one with Tom Merrick again, but where you truly discuss how to program for flexibility, how and when to add reps, time, sets etc. Cheers massive fan from Denmark
Talked to my dad this week end about exercising and he told me that bodybuilders are stupid meatheads only bothered with appearance. And now I watch this debate that proves he could not be more wrong...

Hey! Which study is Eric Helms quoting at 58:15? Unfortunately I cannot understand the name of the author. Would be happy about a link to the study! Thanks
Eric, I would like to get some coaching but I don’t want to spend the money for it. What do I have to do to get the most out of my training without having to spend big money on a coach? Do I just need to get a PhD? Invest hundreds or thousands of hours into personal development reading books and research articles? Get connected in the community and network with researchers? Save me money on a coach please! Much love ;)
Look up and take notes on content from guys like these. Between this channel, Mike Israetel’s podcast appearances and Renaissance Periodization, 3DMJ (Helms’s channel). They have plenty of info about how to exercise with good technique, how to structure training sessions, how to select the exercises you do, and everything else you could imagine. Ask yourself, “what do you want a coach to help you accomplish”, and then use the free resources above to make a plan. Monitor your progress: Keep a workout journal, track your weight and other measurements if you want to, see if you’re getting stronger. Enjoy the process.
Bunch of jargon and abbreviations made it hard to understand for a novice or international audience, I hope next time we can get more explanations about the concepts. Also more energy in the voice wouldn't hurt, I almost fell asleep, and I was listening while jogging lol

Holy smokes, you need to get Eric on more often! This was awesome
Legendary collab! I’d love to hear you and KBoges have a chat
Oh yes!🙌
Indeed
That would be great ! 2 very different approaches to fitness !
I second this
Please

Legendary guest!! Can’t wait to watch this mate!! -Gabo
The collab I have been waiting for, big fan of Eric and Daniel is a fantastic host
How much did the Eric interview cost ?

Love Eric! As a bodybuilder getting older I have had to make adaptations to keep training injury free.

he has a great way of speaking..very honest and direct
I love this guy! He’s so well spoken and sensible in his advice
That sports psychology part was something I hadn't heard before and really enlightening

Just keep on going!!

great collab, hopefully they'll invite you to the Iron Culture Podcast one day🙌
A very interesting & informative discussion guys!
Thank you for this Daniel
Felt like listening to a true master. Great episode.
It was pleasure listening to this highly informative coversation! ❤
My first time listening to both of you, Dr Andy Galpin mentioned you, excellent content, 💥💥💯💪🏽👍🏾
Talked to my dad this week end about exercising and he told me that bodybuilders are stupid meatheads only bothered with appearance. And now I watch this debate that proves he could not be more wrong...
Kinda true for those on gear though
How many Totinos pizza rolls should i be eating after working out to help my body recover? 💪
Counting your macros < counting your totinos pizza rolls 💪🏼
Great videos Daniel!!! Keep on!
This is gold. Bravo.
Great content.
Enjoyed the video!
For strength training How many reps per exercise and sets should you do?
You should do a podcast with Adorian from Old School Calisthenics
So doing partial range of motion on rows and pull downs can yield better results?
Great video ❤
Amazing💪
Aaaaawesome!
Pure gold

08:13 no - simple and easier to not have it in the home in the first place.
