This series is so damn good. It's not just highly entertaining, but it really highlights the principles that you underline in your other videos. When you critique exercises so well and with such logical and well communicated reasoning, it can really cement in my mind the understanding that I've picked up from other videos (yours and others'). These videos so often feel like the final piece of the puzzle when it comes to understanding and remembering a lot of the foundations of muscle/strength building.
Thanks man! That's the idea! - Dr. Mike
With the right knowledge and experience u can become your own authority and not leave it to the “experts”
@@aspiresk8boardingexactly!!! All thanks to mike
Well said!
Yeah... this is fun stuff. If you manage to get through the hour long videos on mesocycles with tons of powerpoint slides... and I have been a management consultant... I'm fine with powerpoint, but those videos were long, painful, and informative. That was eating your spinach sauteed in water without salt. This stuff is pure sugar high.
I find your ratings overly generous.
Agreed, 2 out of 10 or 1.5 would've been more accurate
We all know at least 2 bonus points were added just because Mike is into MBJ
Personally, my guess is that Mike is doing his best to come across with as minimal condescension as possible.
More like 🤡/10

I wanna see a celebrity that watches one of these go “okay mf train me. Teach me how to do the right work out at my beach house” and watch doc absolutely destroy him while he stands on the beach and sips out of a coconut. I would love that
how is showing someone how to do the right workout, "destroying" them ?
Does my fitness trainer destroy me when I pay him?
@@httohotif you're getting your money's worth, yeah.
@@httohot you may not watch a lot of RPs videos but when a new athlete trains with them they put them through hell. They get a good work out but they leave tired. It was a joke about that. Sorry you missed it
i need this now! XD
I absolutely refuse to believe that this is what celebrities are actually doing. Men's Health and other fitness magazines don't want to show you the truth--that getting an amazing physique takes hours every week doing conventional lifts with progressive overload. That it takes proper dieting and rest. They want to sell you the wacky, zany crap that excuses you from having to actually work hard. There's no way someone with Michael B. Jordan's physique does that dumbbell circuit and gets what he has. That dude goes to a gym, uses heavy weights, and does conventional lifts. But that's not what sells magazines.
Ever since i started watching this channel im always in pain.
Thank you Dr. Mike
I did hack squats for 4 sets of 8 Tuesday, influenced of course by Dr. Mike, and I still ain't walking right.
Thanks Dr. Mike!
Haha! "My pleasure." - Dr. Mike
Ha, same. That's Dr Mike for keeping us all on the right path and providing the education.
I feel your pain, just woke from a 2 hour nap after lunch (post workout meal) after a massive back and cardio session 💀🪦.. always over do it on the weekends 😁.
Dr Mike thank you for keeping it !!! 💯
Not a SEAL, but I did the whole Marine rifleman thing back in the day for five years. During that time, I don't think I lifted a single weight. All we did was get smoked with long runs, calisthenics, endless hikes carrying a shit ton of weight, and body-weight workouts. So, it always makes me smile when actors get in "military" shape with jumping dumbbell curl backflips and other stupidity like this.
It’s a movie, it’s not real
@@thestuffmikedoes2309. Exactly it’s not about living it, it about pretending.
It's the same people who think snipers just need to shoot real gud and aren't rigorously trained in complex mathematics and the like.
@@KerythDraws Bullet drop is the main thing
@@KerythDraws complex mathmatics is being generous, BUT you need to be able to do simple mathmatics when your dog ass tired, laying a a pile of ants, got swamp ass and havent slept in 24 hours. So, not easy either.
Ball slams really help my wife expel her aggression, the negative is i struggle to walk for the next few days.
😂😂😢
☠️
Hey, if your into that kind of shit, then by all means
Jesus...
Dr. Mike, I know you got 'science', but I followed this workout and not only became a Navy Seal but also a heavyweight boxing champion and ran a fictional African nation for a spell...and I owe it all to battle ropes (before they were banned by the Geneva Convention for annihilating the competition).
As one professor to another...dude, thanks. Just thanks
Man, I gotta try the workout now! My pleasure right back at you! - Dr. Mike
💀💀💀💀
the sarcasm is so unnecessary considering everyones already in agreement lol
@@RenaissancePeriodization , don't bother. Dr. Ozz is already working hard on a pill. Comes with a 12 gauge shotgun.
I get the impression from a lot of these celeb work-out routines that a lot of them simply don't want to admit that the aim of their work-out is aesthetics. Like oh, this excercise is good for explosiveness and whatever... No, you're going for bigger biceps because you need to look a certain way for a job. There's nothing wrong with that. Just say it.
Right? It's ok to admit the aesthetics, that's why most of us train! - Dr. Mike
They have been caught up in the scams and buzzwords. I like what Arnold had to say about this. No one cares about how heavy you lift. Similarly, I do not care about odd position movements or explosive or functional very much. More buzzwords. The explosive movements and odd position movements have an unfavorable risk to reward ratio. End up injured, maybe permanently but with little to show for it.
Why do you want them to say it I can’t understand what that would do for you lmao?
@@hundo4000 Can they explain how the whackadoodle exercises benefits how they look? My real metric is, if someone spends that much time and effort, does it look like it?
@@rey3472kind of depends if your training is meant to be 'sport specific'. Or maybe you want to just look a certain way. Or maybe you want both. That's why amateur and pro athletes train with certain programs and not others and some programs have better utility for the objective. And why a shit ton of research goes into optimisation for sport training including trying to make a person more "explosive" in their movement capacity
Yes, medicine ball slams.
Mr. Jordan TOTALLY achieved his Black Panther and Creed 2 physiques using…medicine ball slams.
Nothing else…
Medicine balls and medicine 💉
He be slamming medicine in his balls 💉
He never said that tho..
He did. The ball is laced with medicinal tren 🤣
Yes medicine balls sauce madar packer 😂 r u idiot my prend? He on the juice madah packer 😂
It baffles me how actors agree to do videos like this. They clearly don't know what the fuck they are doing and, most importantly, WHY they're doing it. It's a real disservice for people trying to get in shape.
Money. Contract commitments.
They are ACTORS. It's literally their job to do some sh*t they were told to do and pretend they understand what they are doing.
Some of them can pretend better than other. The best of them also give a sh*t about researching stuff during preparation for a role, but those are extremely rare.
Really? You are baffled that a popular dude on roids is used by a magazine to sell shit?
you just described Men's Health business model
People who want to get in shape should never look to actors for advice. Kinda like plumbers and car repair or mechanics and and plumbing etc.
Men’s Health, the gift that keeps on giving.
When i was in the army i got to work out a couple times with the special forces guys. What always struck me in awe was how balanced they were. They would be the fastest runners, strongest lifters, and longest endurance athletes in everything we did. Amazing fitness.
those guys are super athletes, it wasn't the training
@@MrLardobutt I will never forget the days when one guy would show up for the morning run, still drunk from the night before (like, he was still awake from drinking all night) and he would, even stopping to throw up, be the fastest guy in the 2 mile run. Freaks.
@@tagg1080yup, I swear they’re just a different breed of human. Their brain just doesn’t work the same.
@@tagg1080i did a run with some 5th group guys at campbell one time. One time. I didn't fall out, but fuck me dude never again. It was a brutal slog for me, and i swear they were trying to sham pt that morning. Inhuman athletes.
What impresses me is Army SF aka Green Berets because a lot of them were Rangers for years before but somehow didn’t get injured and can still run crazy fast and lift heavy regardless of what they look like.
Mike is the funniest man in the fitness scene, his analogies are so funny. Yeah let out the aggression that’s builds beside your pool at your beach house on st Barths, this will become a classic
Damn if Mike's not the perfect combination of Man, he's very funny, super intelligent and smart as a whip. PhD guys like Mike are something else (with the exception of some sociology doctorates) so when God was handing out exceptionalism Mike was first in line. Mike is great to watch for so many reasons.
It would be interesting to see doctor Mike review Chris Hemsworth's fitness app
Oh absolutely
That would be a series in itself and I'd binge the whole thing!
Bear crawling will get you swole af! 🤡🤡
This is the first time I've seen him off cycle and wow it shows... deflated with no vascularity or conditioning...
I think you mean "chicken and rice". But seriously though, amazing how people are successful at things despite what they do, not because of what they do
Yeah this man definitely was on something for Creed from looking at him now
This just what he looks like in normal conditions with no filters or special angles.
@MR12AMAZING it's not filters and angles that makes him look massive in movies. It's the drugs he's on.
Yas he is off the fried chicken, brokorih and rice juices 😂 he a puzzy ash bish anyway 😂
I'm glad you talked about the cold water effect, because I was watching one of your videos where you were talking about EPOC and I was wondering this exact thing. I'm always ravenous after a swim workout.
I too have always found swimming the worst for losing weight / fat and true to word it makes be both very hungry and extremely tired both those things are seed for getting fat.
Maybe night time before bed swimming after dinner is good. I never felt the desire to eat swimming like that, maybe that can mitigate some of the cold water effect.
Still do it for fun though, not for weight loss.
It'd be cool to see the workouts MBJ actually used to get in shape for the Creed movies, it can't have been this. I remember that very first fight scene in Mexico as the camera follows him into the ring, you can see every single muscle in his back and neck defined and swole. That probably wasn't from medicine ball slams
if u steroid enough thou
if you look at his trainers content, you will see more of what he actually had him do.
@@whattafuareyou He definitely did "something".
It's from having average black genetics.
I never thought he looked like a boxer for that movie, he looked like a bodybuilder, not very athletic tbh.
The hunger thing after swimming is real. Even with that, I always had problems keeping my weight up when I swam a lot.
Cardio tends to burn calories.
Love these video's. I have been lifting since I was 14 for improved sports performance and quality of life. I have included some of your body building concepts and feel a noticeable difference in my general stability and depth of soreness in my muscles. I am a 56 year old physical therapist, with out a lot of spare time, you have improved my efficiency in the gym. Thank you
ETSU, get Buc'd up.
Hey Mike, I absolutely LOVE these celebrity series. I LOVE your sense of humour. THANK YOU
I’m just getting over a knee surgery and seeing your videos is helping me realize I need to go back to the basics. Thanks doc 👍
Progressive overload start small lots of sets low weight big ROm 5 out of ten on pain scale, no pain killers.
Love your channel! I’m glad you’re calling out the so-called gurus on CZcams. The majority of these fitness influencers have no clue about working out. Glad to see that you are setting the record straight. 👍
Dr Mike....brightening everyone's day one video at a time. 😎
You are absolutely hilarious!! I’m 55 and you’ve definitely encouraged me to get back into it!! Thanks so very much.
I appreciate these videos. The entertainment is good, but I’ve learned as much about how to put together a workout and what not to do from these videos as I have from any other RP video.
Love these!!
I love this series so much. Please keep rating celeb workouts.
These are fun and educational. Please keep them coming!
Love this series. Keep em coming.
I use battle ropes for warm up only, really, and to fatigue my arms before going into tire flips and hitting with a sledge.
I think is also cardio
This is the funniest one yet! More of these Dr Mike!
I love the no bullshit approach on everything you teach and preach. Thanks Dr. Mike!!
LOL! Dr Mike, killing it harder then last time! 10/10!
As a veteran, the most dangerous dude I ever met was apart of Delta - and the guy, bar none, was 5'8" and one of the nicest people I've ever met. But that mfer was second-to-none in terms of his determination and drive. Hollywood never comes close to replicating those dudes, because they just look like normal people that are, as you said, somewhat in shape.
Well, a lot of SF are built that way. In shape and very dexterous. We pack a lot of strength for our size and can move quickly as well and have crazy endurance.
And yes I just said “we”. Right now I’m at SWCS and haven’t started selection yet but I WILL be selected and I’m gonna make sure I work my ass off for it.
Except nfl players
@@tv26889Your average professional athlete pales in comparison to a tier one operator’s mentality.
@@kman9884 mentality, not physicality
@@jesuspernia8031here for the update: how’s the selection course going?
I mean, to be fair, his agent probably called and told him about this last minute. Listening to him this doesn't sound very rehearsed, more adlibbed. He's an actor after all. That being said, I'm glad the RP team chose this though. I hope he sees this and checks his facts a bit better next time he is asked to do something like this. *Edit* Anyone else post before they proof read?
Not to hate or anything but it’s just a workout plan and it’s not something that needs to be rehearsed, if you ask any guy who trains daily what they do they can give you a full summary in 5 mins
Im with you.
@@Kjarw For real. What's there to be rehearsed? Bench, OHP, Deadlift, Squat blablabla how can all these hollywood schmocks be so ignorant? They are just ridiculous and want to reinvent the wheel
Lmfao yeah. Poor mbj. You're acting like he gives a shit to begin with lol
why would a workout plan need to be rehearsed? I could tell you an effective chest work down to the reps and techniques to engage the chest the best in my sleep. If you know what you’re doing, you know what you’re doing.
Love this, keep em coming
I find these so entertaining...thank you
Mike, you absolute legend! Amidst the swirling tornado of fitness fibs and toxic treadmill tales, you stand tall as a lighthouse of logic. This video series? It's the bee's knees, the cat's pajamas, the whole enchilada! So, from the bottom of my gym bag, thank you!
Jordan's workout and commentary is a perfect example of exactly why there is so much misinformation out there. Part of the problem ....thanks to Dr Mike for being the solution.
One of my favourite segments on your channel. 👍🏼
Love the video, cracked me up few times 😊
I find it hard to believe that this man doesn't have a home gym or at least access to a really good one.
He access to a really good gym that he used to get ready for cred. if you look at his trainers content, you will see more of what he actually had him do.
@@johneveryman6296 He's pretty jacked, he definitely looks like he lifts regularly.
@@AndreaAustoni He's really not jacked, he does have low bodyfat tho which gives the impression.
@@johneveryman6296He looks small in this video. He did looked jacked in black panther, though. I'm not sure how much of that was effects and how much was him.
@@johneveryman6296 Big shoulders, lats, average men don't look like that, come on. He's not big but he definitely looks like he lifts.
Hey Doctor Mike, could you do a video on elbow and knee sleeves for strength and hypertrophy? For example if you are a competing powerlifter, when should you stop using elbow sleeves?
This is why we love you, Dr Mike. Beauty AND brains.
Awesome stuff Dr Mike..
This series has become one of the highlights of my week. A+ entertainment… and luckily there is no shortage of terrible Hollywood workouts
Mike, as a professional actor, you have no idea how good it is to hear you say: “Just act!!” Cuz like legitimately any actor with training will say the same thing. You don’t need to “transform yourself mentally”… if you know how to act lol
I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that acting is like very immersive adult pretend. Just really own the role and you're good! - Dr. Mike
@@RenaissancePeriodization that’s what it says on my degree!! BFA in playing pretend
@@RenaissancePeriodization but actually you’re totally right haha; people who lose sight of that and take themselves too seriously tend to be the pretentious actors who go “method”
These reaction video’s are the highlight of my week!
Dr. Mike, you have no idea how much I enjoy your reviews of Hollywood actor workouts. Can't wait for you to review Alan Ritchson's workout(s) for Reacher.
CZcams Audience: Why did you do this video when you clearly have no idea what you're taking about?
Michael B Jordan: Money
I doubt he needed the Peter Pan money Men's Health would pay him for this video, it was probably his agent who booked him the last minute
Never a bad reason.
I doubt he's even made much money from this. It's probably like pocket change to him.
Thanks, Dr. Mike. I did not know about the "cold water effect," but I was a competitive swimmer for years. Swimming always made me ravenously hungry. Notably more than anything else.
By far one of the best analysis of abreak down
Dr mike would you mind doing on how to program hypertrophy and strength for weighted claistenictics, bollywood actors routine and recovery methods
Let’s not forget the tibialis. Getting a giant shin pump in on that swim.
I just found your channel yesterday and I can't stop watching your hilarious critiques of Hollywood workouts lol 😄😄😄.
As always your funny as hell and tongue in cheek humor juxtaposed wonderfully with inspirational, insightful and scientifically informative commentary and always hilarious, hits the nail on the head .
Hello dr Mike, I’d love to see you critique the TB12 method that Tom Brady follows and promotes. You will have a field day with that.
How do we work out lower legs if we don't have a pool???
Just buy a piece of the bayou, it's even better for lower leg hypertrophy because of the greater water density
These are possibly my favorite videos on the tube
I love your videos, dont change Dr.Mike
What really ties my physique together is high intensity tibialis curls. 6 days a week and 8 sets of 40 with about 500lbs each. The ladies are all over me now. This is the secret
The neck bone's connected to the.......foot....bone...?
I like reactions especially to lost Hollywood folk
I'd love to see a vid where you rank different cardio modalities. Talking about jogging, sprinting, swimming, jump rope....
Love this series! Thanks for clearing up the snake oil!
I’d be curious to hear what you think of the training the actors did for 300. Apologies if you already critiqued that and I missed it!
I rate this 10/10🎬
Probably the best part of his routine is the meditation. Relaxation response has great benefits. Don't know about the rest though.
Yea, that part actually made sense.
Love this video! Dr. Mike needs to roast Hollywood actor’s workout routines more often!
Hyped for this
So so tired of hearing people say I trained with a Navy seal. They’re in good shape but they aren’t the pinnacle of trainers. Growing up around a lot of military and police, special forces guys swat, most of these guys don’t know what the hell they’re doing.
This looks like an excellent workout for elderly women and girls only interested in toning up a bit.. except it is severly lacking in leg and glute work..
Yea, women tend to only want to work their lower body for obvious reasons
Oh man I am so pleased hearing your opinion on Battle ropes.
Would love a video on what exercise regime you think celebs REALLY do to get into shape for movie roles etc.. would be interesting to see what your insight is
This guy is like the top gear of fitness. Top gear takes the super cars and breaks them down to pros and cons and where they can improve on. Dr. Mike israeltel is no different. Not every workout regimen/routine is perfect or the most results driven. Giving solid feedback and pros and cons where needed
Battle ropes might be good for drummers 😂😂😂
Fun video, thanks!😄
Great breakdown, doc 🦾😆👍
If there's a hole, Dr Mike will find it.

Hi
Hey dude.
Super series!
The aggression part of this convo was brilliant 😂😂😂😂 👏
I've never heard of the Cold Water Effect when swimming before... Do you have any articles or suggestions for research on that phenomenon? I'd enjoy looking into it more!
Edit: For anyone interested, articles addressing this topic are mentioned in the replies!
Anecdotal but when I swam and played water polo all of us had ridiculous appetites, get out of practice and slam two chipotles in a sitting. Don't know if it's the cold water or the type of exercise but the hunger is real
@@mikhailkosyan9735 Yeah I used to swim competitively and I always had a massive appetite when I did but I'm not sure if I can attribute that to this effect or to how much I was burning by being in the water moving around for so long every day... I wonder if there's research showing the disparity between what's burned and how much appetite increases...? That would be super cool to study.
Got curious about it as well and found a solid study on it called "The Acute Effects of Swimming on Appetite, Food Intake, and Plasma Acylated Ghrelin"
@@TocoOW Wow, thanks for this! I'll check it out!
"Increased caloric intake soon after exercise in cold water" on PubMed (authors Lesley J. White et al.) addresses this; found that cycling that took place under cold water seemed to induce higher consumption than that which took place in neutral temperature water. The article "The acute effects of swimming on appetite, food intake, and plasma acylated ghrelin" mentioned by TocoOW suggests this may be true as well, though their findings were not conclusive on the topic of temperature control as all of their tests took place in neutral-temperature water and it was found swimming did not increase appetite beyond what would be expected for the caloric burn of the activity.
My traps are super strong but fairly small. Same with my legs. Both muscles also respond super well to bodybuilding exercises. So much so that when I started working out, it made look like a weirdo with disproportionately large legs and traps but small everything else.
I ignored both muscles for a literal year and my other bodyparts have only recently started becoming in proportion.
Yeah that's not unusual that you have muscle groups that kind of train easyer than others. You have great genetics because most vody builder struggle with both
drMike is so right about the swimming thing,when I was a beginner in the gym I used to do hit cardio and I always was so hungry after,nowadays I mostly do cycling at a steady pace,best when your looking to burn a few hundred calories
I’ve become addicted to these videos, very similarly to the I survived series on A&E, but in a different way, because with these, I’m laughing my ass off and learning and with the other videos, I’m terrified to go out into the world, I am amazed at what the human body is capable of, and can’t sleep at night. Both videos have heroes in them though. Life is good and it’s because of Dr. Mike. Heart.
I feel like a 3/0 was being generous
I've never heard so much wrong so fast
Loving this series 😂
Another great celebrity workout critique.
long story short he does roids
Yep just before a movie then back to spaghetti arms post movies lol
How are you guys so unaware that you still have to work out with roids? Extremely ignorant
I would say that in Black Panther MBJ had the best physique in movie history, he just looked absolutely monstrous and amazing. Whatever combination of routine and drugs they gave him was so top notch
Genetics are the biggest factor in there
I mean combined to drugs ofc
An extremely intimidating physique. But he was also doing Creed around that time too. I'd say he was around 200Ibs at the time. Here he looks to be about 180 max
I would love you to view some athletes or fighters training plans. It would be very interesting to hear your thoughts
This guy has skipped leg day a lot. Good for him he has good genetics and not much more
He’s pretty good at eating that chicken, broccoli, and rice if you know what I’m saying 💉

"The biceps are one of the strongest parts of your body"
That **** is dope. I'm gonna walk to work on my hands from now on.
The swimming was hilarious. In particular the freestyle kick (spasm) and the shorts 😂😂
I like how the longer I watch your content the more I know what you're gonna critique. Shows I'm learning lol.
Hey Dr. Mike, would you consider doing a video on using gymnastics rings? A couple months ago, I started incorporating some accessory ring pushups and ring dips, and I feel like the chest stimulus is crazy good. Thanks!
6:27 Yes side delts. Overhead press with dumbbells targets side delts as well.
This video looked fucking professional af, you should do more of these celeb workout reviews
So funny dude. Keep doing videos like this!😂
I would actually like to work out with dr. Mike that would make my day. Iv used a lot of his tips they definitely work
