  1. Twice our minimum, two to four times a week is what I say is kind of the best overall recommendation per muscle group. And if you train all of your muscles together, at the same time, a whole body workout, which most people in the realm of just I'm busy and I can't train a lot, it would be all the major muscles of your body in the same session twice or three times or four times a week and that is an awesome beginner fitness plan.

  2. Once a week training gives you good results, but twice a week training for the same muscle gives you notably better results. Training three times a week versus twice, training four times a week versus three times, training five times a week versus four times is an exponentially de-escalating amount of impressive differences. So one time a week works, it'll get your results. Two times a week gets you like one and a half times the results like way better, better. Three times a week is like another little bit more result, still notable. Four times a week is like you got to be training for a while to notice the difference between three and four. Four and five is contextual and nuanced and I can't actually tell you that categorically five days a week is better than four. There are some things I would have to know about your plan and everything else to make that conclusion.

  3. That answer depends on how much you've been doing before. But if you're new to the gym, Two sessions a week with two to three sets per session for your biceps is something that's going to cause months and months and months of consistent progress. Can you do more? Yes. Do you have to do as a beginner? No. Eventually as a more advanced person, do you need to do more sets and perhaps more sessions to get consistently better results? Yes. But for beginners who haven't been in the gym very much or at all, the minimal effect of dose is profoundly small, which is why I can say things like if you work out for twenty minutes twice a week, you're going to get great gains.

  4. As long as they're not so tiny that you're on rep number 45 and you're like, I could just do this forever, or if they're not so enormous that you're like, I can't really even do two reps of this. Anything between roughly five and roughly 30 reps challenging is really, really good.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  5. All right, great. So it's seventeen There is so, there's just tons of tons of contextual nuance kind of stuff. Some people, some of their muscles will seem respond better to sets a five to ten. Other folks, even the same person could have muscles in their body that really respond better to sets of twenty to thirty and everything in between. But generally you get in the exercise science data, you'll have a group of people training for sets of roughly five reps, and another group training for sets of roughly 30 reps, and their change in muscle growth over eight, twelve, sixteen weeks is statistically undifferentiable, which means if I delabel the groups and you don't know which one's which, you can't actually tell me who trained with higher reps or lower reps. For muscle growth, it's roughly the same.

  6. Yeah. And so your sets have to be sufficiently heavy. Anything between roughly five reps per set and 30 reps per set were the last few reps are getting close to you not being able to use good technique and lift the weights check plus.

  7. So specificity is telling yourself, okay, I want bigger biceps and whatever XYZ other muscles. Then we move in to the principle of overload, which means you have to challenge yourself. If most of your sets Someone else watching them can't tell if you're warming up or doing what's called a working set like a real set. You have a problem. So towards the end of all of your sets, either the weights are slowing down. Or even if it's the same speed to you they feel perceptively harder. You know, you do this, this, this, and in a couple of reps, you're like, That's what you want. Every real working set should be challenging. You should be approaching every real set with just a teeny teeny dose of trepidation. Like, oh boy, here we go. I'm going to have to try. Once you have that

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  8. A specificity It's the most important principle in all of sport veining and exercise science is what am I here for? What do I want? Because you can do a bunch of exercises in the gym and you're like, that was great. And someone's like, are you getting the results you like? And you're like, well, what I want is a bigger bicep. Like, how many bicep exercises do you do? I think upright rows, maybe.

  9. at an appropriate time for summer, and minimize injury risk, and taking all the science that we know, that plan that you've made because you did in an evidence-based fashion, that is now what is considered a periodized plan. So that's how those two concepts relate to each other.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  10. So, periodization is the scientifically based organization of any kind of training that you want. Hypertrophy training is a type of training, it's just muscle growth training. It's like a fancy fucking science word for just getting more jacked, putting on muscle. That's the technical definition of hypertrophy. And when you train hypertrophy, you can do it kind of like by feel and more or less at random, and you'll get pretty good results in most cases. But to get your best results, you want that training to be periodized. Periodization is the scientific approach to how to organize your training to get sort of roughly three things. Some of these are a bit more for athletes and not regular people. Get the best results that you can

  11. And everyone else, like in the Avengers movie, just floats away. There's no one else. There's not even any other machines. It's you and the bicep curl machine and hypertrophy app says first set as 12 reps at fifty pounds. I take the select dry stack, I go to fifty, and I'm nice and warmed up, and I do 12 reps. And that's as far as you have to think about a comparisons, whatever anyone else thinks, without a plan. Oh boy, are you second guessing yourself? With a plan, you don't have to second guess anything. Most of those people don't have a plan. They're just in there on vibes. I feel like my dilts are going to grow today if I do this. Like, thanks. Thanks for that intellectual opinion.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  12. And we actually have an app for this sort of thing where we would say, okay, here's how you type in all your stuff in the app. The app will create a plan for you. And it'll tell you here's what to do for warming up. Here's, you know, you pick a weight. It tells you how to pick your weights. And then it programs the rest of your two months of training for you. You fill in the how do I feel high am I recovering? It'll take care of everything else. And if you ever get confused, you click on the exercise and it opens up a video with an audio demonstration of how to do it and of someone, a professional bodybuilder doing the thing. And you go, oh, that's what bicep curls was. Okay, got it. So now you have all the answers. And you don't have to have our app. We think it's nice. You don't have to have it. This whatever kind of plan you have, that's your little map of the Caribbean Sea with the X's and the pirate ships. And you know exactly where to go. And it's you, your app, or your map of how to train your program.

  13. So, first of all, I think people's gym anxiety is absolutely real thing. I can speak to that at length. The next step would be to say, hey, listen, based on all the information we've collected on your limitations, desires, abilities, we've cultivated a plan for you. It could be thy plan, and then just stick into the muscle growth stuff Here is your plan for your training.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  14. Oh yeah. Now that's if you're unaccustomed and unadjusted. If you have already, and that's why those intake questions are important. Because if you're like, look, I go to the gym six times a week, I spend two hours at the gym, like dumbbells can keep you in pretty good shape, but they're not going to elevate your shape very likely. At the very least, it'll be highly inefficient and incredibly discomforting for what you'd have to do with such dumbbells.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  15. If you properly control your diet and you haven't really lifted weights before and you're, let's say, 30, 40, 50 years old in a six month time span, we can reliably get you to gain five to ten pounds of muscle, which if you go to the store, what is that like? Five, let's say the two to five kilos of muscle. You ever buy two to five kilos of meat at the store? That's a lot of meat. That's going on your body. And we can reliably get you to lose oh gee five to seven and a half kilos of fat in a six month time frame just by being intelligent about your diet and doing two workouts per week at home with your dumbbells and the workouts each take roughly twenty minutes.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  16. Yes, somewhere between ten and twenty pounds, ten for smaller, lighter females, twenty for larger, more strong males, somewhere between that. Two of those dumbbells at home and a little bit of floor space can be the beginning of an absolutely revolutionary workout program.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  17. For many people like adult males, white spry like yourself, 20 pound dumbbells at home will give you phenomenal overall result. Yeah. What is that? Nine kgs or something. Oh, here we go. Your assistants are quite strong, by the way. Do you fight crime in your spare time?

  18. Step two oftentimes just to keep it weak and we definitely do nutrition if you'd like, so please cue me in for that. But I'll just use training as a quick example here. A big one is, do you go to a gym? Can you make it to a gym? Or are you going to be training at home? Because training at home is a bit of a different world. You can get amazing results at home. But we need to make sure you have the right equipment. And it's super minimal, two 20-pound dumbbells. I like that you're looking over at the dumbbells.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  19. I also ask what have you been doing so far? Tell me about your approach to fitness? And the answer could be I don't have one. I've never tried to do anything. Once we get a lot of that information, I don't want to say the plan rights itself, but sort of almost now we're really, really, really have all the details to fill in the blanks down.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  20. I just want to be able to see my man down there again and like just not die soon. And I have two hours a week to give you very different plan.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  21. Most people just open-ended, to be completely honest. I just want to get much leaner Some of them will say, I also want to put on a lot of muscle. The muscle thing is a lot of times with females that just want the leaner part, but they understand in many cases that if they just jettison their muscle entirely, they end up looking more sick than healthy. But a lot of the males, leaner is important, but also getting super jacked is important. But how jacked and how lean, that's the conversation, is if they come in with totally open-ended concerns, it's kind of like walking into a car dealership and being like, I want a car. Like, you're going to have to be at live. We'll sell you whatever. You're going to have to tell me a little bit more about what your use cases are, about what your budget is. So that's another big thing in a need analysis is how much time can you give to this? I want to eventually be a professional bodybuilder, and I've got nothing but time in my week to do the thing.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  22. Would even take a step back before that. First thing we do is call the needs analysis in formal sports science. A needs analysis is What do you want? Specifically, do you want bigger arms? How much muscle are you trying to gain? It's a very different conversation if someone weighs one hundred and fifty pounds. And they're like, I want to be 155 but leaner versus I weigh one hundred and fifty pounds and I want to be two hundred ripped different timelines, different approaches, different trade offs.

  23. And that was the conclusion of a terminal degree. I got a PhD in sport physiology. And then I spent, oh, geez, ten years in various professorships, teaching and doing some research and all this other stuff. I'm no longer a college professor, mostly because like there's only so many things you can do at the same time well. And it was kind of like this is this YouTube thing is getting kind of insane. So I'm going to pivot to that. I'm still actively involved in research. Our company funds research. I still look at manuscripts. I still co-author. So I'm still involved in that capacity as well.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  24. And that was in sport physiology. And the best way we had of summarizing what it is we were learning is the thing we're learning best here is how to take good athletes and make them better. And so I did three years of that. It sounds like a prison time. I did three years in ETSU.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  25. Sounds so pretentious. I can't believe I'm using this nomenclature, but I did my undergraduate work at the University of Michigan, where I met my fellow co-founder of RP Nick Shaw. And that was in kinesiology, specifically a subset of something called movement science. I then went on to do a master's in technically strengthened conditioning, but exercise science at Appalachian State University. Then I went for one year to go work in New York City with Nick as a personal trainer. At the end of that process, I realized that for my own personal vibe, I just didn't know enough, and I wanted to know more. And so I got accepted to a PhD program at East Tennessee State University under the great Mike Stone, who is probably one of the most well-published sports scientists of all time. Maybe definitely in the conversation for the greatest American sports scientist of all time. And I went to that PhD program.

  26. But if you have more muscle, less fat, and more physical activity, you ever see like an eighty year old that's like cardio walking down the street and you're like my man, it'll give you that. So that's a big deal. So health, It'll give you a usually people experience a perception of wellness that psychological. They just feel better. They feel cleaner, they feel more energy. The cognitive benefits of health and fitness are now being addressed seriously in the literature, and they have been for a little while, but it's kind of swelling is unequivocally true now to say that regularly engaging in fitness makes you literally smarter. Just straight up, and it conserves your brain's cognitive health for decades into the future as you do it consistently. It's just win all the way across.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  27. You won't get really sick very soon effect that has is just radical. I just coming off of them, but if it's okay to say it was recently on like a boatload of steroids, like the worst ones. Got blood work right in the middle of that because I was very lean and very physically active and very muscular. My blood worked stellar. Just being leaner and more muscular and more active just cleans your blood work up like crazy and makes sure a long term, it increases your longevity considerably, but it does something I think is pretty close to equally important. It increases the kind of time you're having in your life while you're alive. It makes it way better. It reduces the morbidity. So because you can be around a long time living in an assisted care facility and like on machines to keep you, that's you're alive, sure, but it's not missing there.

  28. The other benefits of fitness, we could have a ten hour podcast where I just go through them one at a time and we would never get through all of them. I'll give you a couple of samplings of kind of the big hitters. One is health straight up so if you reduce your body fat substantially and you increase your muscularity substantially and you adopt a lifestyle of moderate to moderately high physical activity quite regularly. This is about as close in real life as we have so far to a panacea, a cure all. It isn't cure all, but the degree of preventative

  29. I love that question. The first thing I'll say is maybe not a surprise to many of the people that know me. Politically, I'm like super pro freedom, freedom of all kinds, inclusion. And that means to me also that if someone doesn't want to pursue fitness, as a human being you have the same love and respect at least from me that anyone who's fit would have. And so as far as like it'll just make you a better person and you gotta get fit, people will see people that are obese and they're like lazy and ugh how do they live with themselves? I don't ever think things like that. Not because I'm a good person. I'm not a good person at all. What fitness won't give you is it won't elevate your status as a better person in some way. However

  30. You can get into really, really good shape with not so much time investment and it's not so difficult. It's difficult in the moment as far as you got try hard, but an hour of trying hard a week is not the end of the world. And then a nutritional front, they come in and they think it takes all these crazy special things. Like people watch me eat regular food and I'll be like, you eat that? I'm like, yes. But I thought that, you know, but you need the super special food. I was like, that's never been true. But people come in with their stack of ideas and these there's just dozens and dozens of myths on both ends.

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  31. No way, because maybe that's the first time they've heard about it. So you tell people working out doesn't have to last forever. If you do it intelligently, which is what we specialize in RP about teaching people how to do and demonstrating digital products,

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  32. More or less, yeah, or they'll see me eat a protein bar and they're getting like the food on the plane, and they're like, this is bad for me, huh? And I'm like, no, it's actually quite fine. And they always look a little bit confused. So all these ideas people have about nutrition organic, artificial sweeteners are bad, gluten-free, GMOs. You have to have very meticulously well prepared meals. There is a ton of food that's huge, laundrothless of food that's unhealthy and bad for you, makes you fat. There are other foods that are a little bit more nuanced and difficult to find that are super healthy foods and eradically transform you. I can go on for hours about these myths, but people come in with these myths as notions, as things they believe that they're like, this is how it is, right? And when you tell them, like, actually, that's not true. A lot of them are like,

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  33. You have theory at the top, which is like gravitation evolution things super super confirmed. Just beneath that you have model, like the standard model in physics. It's not quite good enough, quite good enough support be a theory, but it's very well understood space with a few mysteries. Under that you have a hypothesis, which is, you know, you have a real good idea formally phrased. And underneath that, you have a notion. And a notion is just things people say. And people are like, uh-huh, and no one even asks or answers about, is this really true? And so when you talk to people about nutrition or they talk to you about why they're not in such great shape, another thing I get is when you're pretty jacked and lean and you sit next to someone on a plane, they treat you almost like a religious figure like a priest or an imam, and they're like, apologize. They're like, oh, you look like you're in good shape. I just haven't been at the gym. And I'm like, I love you as a human being no matter all the time.

  34. Isn't that cool? And every time I tell them how much I work out, which is really like at my real trying to be as good as bodybuilding as possible, it is really eight hours a week. And this is to do this insane thing for people just trying to be fit and healthy, etc. We're talking about a sum total of one hour per week split into two or three twenty-ish minute sessions, something we'll be trying later on, is such a huge stimulus and can radically transform your body, especially if you have attention to nutrition. And that's the second thing that's a big dogma, big myth, is people have ideas about what comes in to nutrition and nutrition for being more lean, more muscular, and healthier, they have all these kind of a constellation of ideas economist and philosopher Thomas Owell calls them notions. So if you have a higher

    2024-09-12 · The Diary of a CEO · The Muscle Building Expert: “Creatine Loading Is a Waste Of Time!”, They’re Lying To You About Workout Hours! Dr Michael Israetel · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  35. Two super common ones I don't have the time to work out and into that time to work out is included. I don't have regular gym access or I technically do, but I'd have to drive to the gym. I just don't have the time and the bandwidth for it. I don't have the scheduling positioning in my life to do this sort of thing. And baked into that is the assumption that getting much healthier and much leaner and much more muscular takes like an inordinate amount of time. What are the most common questions I get out in the real world when people happen to look in my general direction? Because usually people just kind of go, what the hell's wrong that guy's head? But one of the most common questions I get is how many hours a day do you work out or how many days a week do you work out? And every single person is expecting an answer that is kind of like asking the tallest basketball player you've ever met how tall they are. You want an answer that's like two and a half meters. You want something meaty. And if they tell you like, oh, I'm a meter ninety, you're kind of like.

  36. For those who would like. To get everyone who would like in as good a shape as possible with as minimum of a time investment, injury probability, and inconvenience in general as possible in the highest likelihood of best results while trying to completely excise doing anything that is pointless and also, I say this politely, telling people things that aren't true. We're trying to get as many people fit, leaner, more muscular, more flexible, healthier, etc, as humanly possible, to the extent that they are interested in that sort of thing, because not everyone's into fitness, I understand that. I think I look kind of, you know, freaky and it scares certain people. So I have a lot of time for that. But if you want to get fit, we're trying our best.

  38. After about two weeks of not lifting, we start to lose muscle, but most people think, oh my God, another eight months just to get back to where I started, but when you gain an initial amount of muscle, it never goes back to the same size as when you started. It's just always going to be bigger.

  39. It's the consistency that matters. Doesn't matter if it's two hours a week or if it's 18 hours a week. If you're consistent, you can get amazing benefits. And then there's specificity, which is the most important principle in all of exercise science. That's telling yourself, okay, I want bigger biceps.
