“Imagine a baton like you would hand off to someone in a relay race, but at one end, half of it is thick enough. I don't know what the exact diameter is. Let's call it two, two and a half inches so that you can plate load. You can put an Olympic plate on that and then secure it, which makes it very interesting because you can work with progressive resistance, right? And for me, that was important and will be important. I'm six weeks after elbow surgery, so I'm not quite there yet. But for sort of supination and pronation, whether I'm doing isometrics or otherwise. And it's very small, very portable. And one of the advantages, we were chatting. Well, why don't you just tell the story and then I can add some color if need be. I put this bar in Five Bullet Friday, which is my newsletter that goes out to 2 million plus subscribers.”

“Just a quick thanks to one of our sponsors, and we'll be right back to the show. Creatine isn't just for muscle, it's essential daily fuel for your brain, your body, and long-term performance. For me, I have Alzheimer's and dementia risk in my family, the cognitive benefits are the reason I take creatine every single day. And today's episode sponsor, Mementus, is the gold standard in creatine. There's a lot of BS floating around, but I choose them. Why? Because they source creature creatine, the purest, most effective creatine monohydrate available. So if you've been curious about creatine, this is your moment to get back on track or try it for the first time. Mementis is also now introducing the momentous creatine chews. Each chew delivers one gram of pure creeopure creatine monohydrate. I was skeptical of these chews. I was like, I'm never going to use these. It turns out that I use them all the time. They're super convenient and they are NSF certified for sports. So you get the gold.”

“Yeah, one to two feet. Then you lean back against the wall. Now take your upper back off of the wall so it's just kind of your hips and low back against the wall. So you're not cheating. Your legs are locked, right? Your knees are locked and then you're lifting your toes to the greatest extent that you can. And the nest point that you added to that where I was like, oh, that's actually very smart and it's particularly, I would say, helpful for someone like me who's basically torn everything in both ankles. Too many heel hooks and nonsense way back in the day that basically lifting the foot as much as possible than going down on the pinky side, then coming up and going down on the big toe side and alternating back and forth like that. I could see helping also with some of the lateral stability issues that I have.”

“Yeah, if people also want to look up Louis Simmons in his writing online, a lot of amazing tidbits to be found to this day and a lot of his writing. And Westside Barbell for a period of time, it was just one of those. For mutants that, and of course, there's some selection bias if people are traveling to the Mecca to station themselves there to train. There's a little bit of selection bias, but the results were just so Incredible and the number of world records broken and the number of innovations, whether that's say chains to provide more resistance as you get into stronger ranges of motion with whether it's deadlift or anything else. I mean, bands and so on, a lot of what you see that is propagated throughout the gym universe started there or at least was codified and sort of formalized in some way there.”

“Also, cantankerous as fuck. Oh my god, he was so salty. And part of his charm. One of a kind. Who else has influenced your thinking on exercise and movement just broadly speaking your way of training?”

“And then we connected, and Charles ended up in the four-hour body. He introduced me to myofacial release and active release technique. And there's some before and after photos with internal rotation on the shoulder in the four-hour body that are unbelievable. They look like... Were staged because the gains in range of motion are so significant. He was right about so many things, wasn't right about everything. But there are so many things that Charles did that ended up being proven out. Through studies and data collection later and exercise science in other fields is pretty remarkable. I mean, he got a lot of things right.”

“This, but I had been exposed to tons of his stuff just as you had through magazines way back in the day. And he reached out and he's like, you don't know who I am. And I was like, well, actually, that's funny because I do know who you are.”

“Not necessary for most people at all. Like the surface area for injury goes up also when you're throwing everything in the kitchen sink with lots and lots of hours. And certainly, I mean, I had conversations with Charles back in the day where we were talking about some of these professional athletes, let's just say NFL players, who have five, six percent body fat, you know, they destroyed the combine. There are these absolute phenoms. And I would ask them, what do they, what do they eat for their diet? And he'd be like, oh, Wendy's for breakfast, burger king for lunch, McDonald's for dinner. I mean, you have to be very careful that you're not modeling your training on mutants. So I'll just pull out a couple of things from Charles. So I first met Charles because he reached out to me after reading the four-hour work week, my first book. And he had applied a lot of it to his business and his productivity. And I think at the time, he didn't realize.”

“Basically, one or two reps on the minute overhead squats. So I'm holding a barbell overhead. But we're talking bar, maybe plus five pounds on either side, very lightweights, just doing one rep on the minute for like 10 to 20 minutes. That's it. And by greasing the groove in that way, I went from basically zero ankle mobility, lots of injuries, still a lot of lateral instability to being able to do what we did earlier, which is frankly years after I did that training. It's been really durable, which is wild. One of the points that I hear you making that I see reflected in a lot of what you do is that you don't necessarily have to do, you absolutely don't have to do for most things like an hour of strength training every other day plus an hour of stretching every day or every other day. You just do not, that is.”

“And also getting strength and flexibility or mobility and harmony can sometimes mean that you're training both at the same time, often can mean that. And we were recording earlier and not that I'm going to win any gold medals in the split squat, but like my range of motion is pretty good, all things considered. And I credit that to doing the movement and also I gave him a shout out when we were recording Jersey Gregorette some credit where credit is due who holds multiple world records or due in master's Olympic weightlifting. He is, he's got to be close to 70, if not 70 now. He can still do, he can stand on a balance board like an Indo board, the fully loaded barbell.”

“Yeah, I'm not trying It was more like my 71 year old mom is sprinting. I'm like, wait a minute, hold the press. I just wanted to unpack that. So thank you for that. If I were to ask your mom, all right, you can only pick. Three or four exercises. That's it that you get to continue with. You've had eight years to trial and error and try a bunch of stuff. What do you think she would respond with of the like three or four?”

“So just to give voice, certainly this pops into my mind. I'm like, wait a second. So, do you just come from thoroughbred genetic stock? I mean, this sounds kind of outrageous. I mean, has your mom been sprinting her whole life? Does she have a period where she couldn't do it”

“I don't want to make anything sound risk free, of course. But of all the exercises that I've seen, especially under control, slow cadence, the front foot elevated split squat, it seems harder to commit cardinal sins where you're going to injure yourself. Is that a fair statement?”

“I wouldn't want people who have never explored really deep squatting to jump into doing squatting where they're rounding the low back at the bottom most portion of the squat. So just to paint a picture for folks, maybe they've heard these terms. But if you imagine your hips, your pelvis, like a glass of wine, if you're pouring wine out the front, that's anterior pelvic tilt. If you're pouring wine out the back, that's posterior pelvic tilt. If you go into the bottom of a squat, especially if you're loading yourself up with a barbell or something and you have a lot of posterior pelvic tilt, some people call that the butt wink at the bottom, you can really hurt yourself. And I was guilty of that at one point. And I like the safety profile”

“Squad to the extent that you can be pain free in that range of motion. And your knee, if you build up to it, maybe you'll get there naturally quickly, your front knee is going to project way over your toes. And the reason that I wanted to come back to this is A, because I've derived so much value from this and so much pain reduction in the back. And the third is from a form perspective.”

“You to fact check me if I'm off base here, but I would like to come back to the split squat for a second, particularly with that front foot elevated. So imagine that you had some place in your house, I'm making this up where there's one step up. Maybe it's from like a living room to the kitchen or vice versa. Could just as easily as we did earlier be like too thick 45 pound plates if they're kind of like the bumper plate style. So whatever that might be six to eight inches, whatever the height happens to be. You've got one foot on that. Then you have your other leg is far back as is.”

“You recommend people do what people would envision as a normal squat? So both feet on the ground, same plane. One exercise that you're very well known for, the ATG split squat or front foot elevated split squat, would you have them start with that in place of? The prototypical squat. How do you think about that?”

“Of what people might consider inflexibility. And it's just the body being very smart to guard itself against injury where it is weak at the extent of your range of motion, right? And when you start to develop strength at the end range, all of a sudden, bada boom, you're quote unquote flexibility improves, right? Because the body is very, very intelligent and it's guarding you against injury. I just wanted to mention the polyquinism because I think it puts a fine point on some of what you're saying, right? It's like if you're never getting into”

“Throughout polyquinism, he had quite a few of these. At some point, I'll tell you the origin story, how I connected with Charles, which is pretty funny. But this is one of his lines. And this is, I'll give credit where credits do. This is from outside online. But strength is gained in the range it is trained. Very Susian, as they put it. And you just see this over and over again. And I've interviewed, for instance, Coach Christopher Summer, who used to be the men's national gymnastics coach Look at a lot of say.”

“Just a quick thanks to our sponsors, and we'll be right back to the show. I am always on the hunt for protein sources that don't require sacrifices in taste or nutrition, and that's why I love the protein bars from today's sponsor, David. They are my go-to protein source on the run. I throw them in my bag whenever I am in doubt that I might be able to get a good source of protein. David has 28 grams of protein, 150 calories, and zero grams of sugar. And on top of that, David tastes great. Their bars come in six delicious flavors. They are all we're trying. Protein is also the most satiating macronutrient. What does that mean? It means that protein out of carbohydrates fat and protein inhibits your appetite while also feeding all the things you want to feed, which helps you consume fewer calories throughout the day. You're less inclined to eat garbage. All of that contributes to fat loss and reducing the risk of various diseases. And now you guys, listeners of the Tim Ferris Show, who buy four boxes get a fifth box.”

“Just incredibly effective, but also so elegant and so simple and hard to hurt yourself. Now, of course, talk to your doctor. I don't pretend to be one on the internet. But that's all I wanted to say was personally, I can also vouch for this. Did you come across that through Polyquin?”

“Let me just sidebar quickly for folks. I have only in the last handful of years, I'd use sleds a lot, but I was always pushing. It's only in the last handful of years. And you have met these guys as well. But in Sima, Young, and Mark Bell. And of course, Mark Bell used to train with, he was at Westside Barbell, Louis Simmons. You mentioned his name when we were recording earlier. I have come to appreciate just how incredibly therapeutic. This pulling of the sled is, which you could do with a band round, a harness around the waist. You could do it with a vest. You could simply hold on to, that's typically how I've seen Mark do it, for instance, where you're effectively just holding on to handles with a strap that attaches you to the sled for rehabilitation, for prehab, for building in some insurance policy for the knees, it is.”

“Just for people who are trying to imagine what this means. So if you were to say be in a squat position, keeping your shins vertical where your knees are aligned over your ankles, that would be the, let's just call it pre-exposure to polyquin. Sacred Cow, at least in some of the sort of exercise science worlds. Do not let your knees travel over your toes. Keep your shins vertical. So Charles is saying quite the opposite.”
