How is 'Men's Health' still a gigantic institution when it does stuff like this? After several hundred thousand of these videos, shouldn't the entire world be onto it by now? I realize the answer is "no", but it still baffles me.

Yes!

The band would hit failure first

😂

I don't believe this was Brady's eorkout

@@masonmalaguti3463Brady BELIEVES in this shit. I read a whole book in which he espouses his dedication to this workout. He’s been doing this workout for years and his teammates have made comments about how wacky it is over the years.

@@edwardx5726 what's the book called. How can a professional athlete basically workout with air lol

@@edwardx5726 this is insane I just watched a few vids how tf did Brady fall for this bullshit I saw some vids where he was talking about this. He eats 80 percent plant based also wtf that why he has a dad bod.... How did he not die from the hits he got in the NFL I'm a Patriots fan I've always loved Brady and th patriots but I cringe now the way he worked out like bruh idk how he fell tmfor Alex Guerreros bullshit

BAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Hahaha you win the comments! Brilliant.😂

I don't watch this guy and not watching long enough to understand his frustration with that quote. As a physical therapist who works with athletes, its an easy cue that works 😂 if you're speaking to a deconditioned 87 year old who has zero postural awareness, than sure. "Brace your core" "engage your core" are great reminders. Just like breathing.. tucking the tail in.. don't dip the hips .. any cue is good if it gets the message across

then you missed the entire point of the video

he’s a pocket quarterback do u really think he needs to do the same lifts as the linebackers? Use ur brain, y’all need to take dr mikes penis out of y’all’s mouths and use y’all’s brains a little more , these workouts are designed for Brady’s specific in-season program for a quarterback not a regular program to build strength . And it’s probably mostly designed to promote recovery and prevent injury. But nah seriously you gotta watch out dr mike likes getting his 🍆 touched

Also these are NOT I repeat ARE NOT the only work Brady does if you believe that just go away lol cuz ur dumb and also on top of that Brady actually liked going to ALEX so it’s not like he was grinding his way though the process and succeeding in spite of it all it’s more like ALEX was the one who helped him the most and it was BILL BELICHECK who he really didn’t like listening too, do ur research I know this whole story

Too bad its a dumbass quote that isn't true

It's not about selling tom brady. It's the trainer using tom's name trying to sell himself so that he'll get more clients

​@@arihaviv8510 Thats what I thought. This could not possibly be Brady workout

hahahaha

They are all on juice.

90% of Brady's success came from his mind. The other 10% from his right shoulder. The rest of his body was just there to hold him upright.

It was funny hearing Dr. Mike mention that this workout will actually make him slower. Not that Brady was ever fast, but he got slower over his career and was known for a lack of speed.

Think rigged games in porpuse to build a "legend"

This is just what Tom Brady wants you to believe that he does. That's how he maintains his competitive edge, complete subterfuge

@@willjaeger1878 Shouldn't he make it more believable in that case?

Guarantee that this is an ‘active recovery’ workout. Agreed that the demonstration is lacking. Failure is sometimes meant in the strictest parameters of the exercise.

“I train wrong to keep the competition fair.”

@@Piebunion "This isn't even my final form."

I'm convinced the trainer sells those bands and the entire video is a subtle way to advertise his product.🤣

I searched for this comment. That dude is built like mashed potatoes.

Often trainers will not have comp-ready physiques but there is atleast SOME muscle on their bodies like biceps and traps and shit, stuff that comes from training for a long time, this dude seems like he's never touched a fkin weight in his life!

It is what sells TB 12, people would rather have a gimmick that makes all their problems go away without putting in the work. It’s a certainty Tom has not been training with this guy, possible even that he never has.

@@ThomasHilverda-DePaolono, he has and it’s been a huge topic, as this guy is known to be a charlatan; even sold some shit supplements to cure aids and cancer (in his words). TB listens to pseudoscience and does this crap all day

Psychological failure is a type of failure

@@ryanmckee3645 Holy god... a new rep range... "How many reps bro?" until psychological failure...

Cause he’s a QB and not a linebacker bro

Well take a look at his trainer, he doesn't look very fit for someone working in fitness business. If I'm looking to invest my money in a personal trainer I would want someone to be in optimal shape. So it seems Tom doesn't know how to pick the right guy

I can confidently say I’ve never once wondered why Tom fucking Brady didn’t look the terminator 😂😂

@@diffizzle8630 Do this ppl watch football? Tom fucking Brady is everything but atletic, the man runs in slow motion 😅

@@pauassie Be careful. That's that VShred logic.

Same thing happen to me. Worked at the gym, my boss also worked as a trainer. He always gave exactly the same exrecises as the guy in the video, but it was that round training style, where you to 3-4 exercise around and around for a few sets. It was taboo to say do 4 sets of 12 reps and all his clients looked like they never entered a gym, despite working out for years. He was afraid to scare off middle aged moms with a real workout

As a club player i can confirm.

Their brains do 1000 times more work than muscle of anyone who did this "workout"

Love the humor!

On the other hand you might be interested in bobby Fischer's workout

And what they would say? they are on juice, so they don't have to train properly.

@@raphg6319 meh.

@@raphg6319yes they do, because the extra strength and agility is hard on your tendons. When you train incorrectly, you get career-ending injuries. Look at Michael Jordan and his trainer…. He would be meticulous about every single thing MJ did (even counted his steps each game) to find any imbalances or the preferences he did. He had multiple falls in which his acl or knees would’ve given out had he not properly trained them You’re severely underestimating the importance of proper training

​@raphg6319 bruh you could be on 3 grams per week and still look like a middle school science teacher if you did this workout.

@@randymason9215 exactly my point bro You need PROPER training whether or not you’re on PEDs

Gotta keep the core engaged, right babe?

also, no knees over toes!

This needs to happen

If memory serves me correctly, Nautilus has specific programs for many sports, specifically I adjusted my workouts for tennis, with great results. This was about 1990, don't have that book anymore. G

That seems kind of out of his baliwick TBH.

He gets paid for those in private sessions.

James Hoffmann is an expert on sports specific training. He has a bunch of great videos on the subject.

How many hall of fame quarterbacks are you training right now? Just curious, cuz no one is touching what Brady did and no one is coming close so unless ur training Patrick mahomes or Aaron rodgers type shit u prob need more training as a trainer cuz whoever ur training prob ain’t even make the leaugue on god

@@figgestbrosmedia Look, try get a guy to train this and see how far they go lol.

What makes Brady so good if he's so slow? Vision? Passing? (I genuinely don't know - don't watch NFL)

It’s not like he training to failure with these exercises.

@@TheBobes intelligence, vision, precise fundamentals, and being in a system that compliments his abilities.

​@@TheBobes Intelligence, work ethics for mental preparation, absolutely flawless footwork and passing mechanics, crazy kinesthetic sense (how his body is positioned in space) and very sharp senses for pass rush. Brady was to football what Federer was to tennis basically. That and he had very few injuries (luck based but also somewhat genetics, though he went on record saying he practiced falling and thought keeping healthy was his number one goal trainingwise). He was playing in very good, very well coached teams his entire career. That plus he was married to a woman significantly outearning him which allowed him to negociate very team friendly contracts in order to play around the salary cap. Combination of factors really.

He was the most knowledgeable player on the field and could throw pretty much any pass he needed to. He was also the fastest QB at throwing the ball after the snap, the ball would already be in the air before anyone could get close to tackling him. He also had an insane competitive mindset.

funnily enough, having your knees over your toes is actually good for your knees.

I believe the bands are better for joints; Brady’s an example. I use and believe they’re effective in exercise applications as well. As with anything, it’s how they’re used. Obviously with greater resistance.

Hey, public libraries are great!

@@hardcorehouse You do run a lower risk of overextending the joints with bands, that much is true, also dropping a band on your foot wont hurt as much. There's also a lower risk of getting as strong as you would have had you lifted weights instead.

@@hardcorehouse oh I totally agree. I work in physical therapy so i use bands frequently, and they can give benefits for rehab and such. I’m not convinced they keep muscles “pliable”, as the TB12 method suggests. Partly because I’m not totally sure what the term “pliable” means when Brady uses it. Bands are great, but I do think it can be more challenging to take a band exercise close to failure on bigger muscles like back.

@@softan 100%. There’s negligible injury risk unless you are training a muscle that’s already partly injured. And totally agree about strength as well. It’s challenging to load up bands for sets of 3-6 or whatever strength range is being used without extra equipment.

Thought the same thing

You do know pro athletes gets payed to excel in sports not in lifting right idiot? What can that elgin idiot do apart from drinking the cool aid powerlifting bs? Can he jump high, run faster or longer? Can he he swim 🤫🤷‍♂️😉🔫

I think Dr. Mike and trapsaurus rex would be a great collab

@@bobboberson6664 it's unlikely that Elgin has ever left his bedroom due to his enormous upper back

This is an insult to buns of steel.

It makes sense to an extent, because QB is one of the few positions in the NFL where you can get away with this type of workout (at least the slower pocket passers). Brady didn't need elite strength or athleticism at his position and excelled in spite of a mediocre workout because he's one of the GOATs when it comes to skill & intelligence. If Alex Guerrero tried this nonsense with NFL players who rely heavily on strength/speed he would be exposed quickly.

​@@CaIIOfTheWildeven if he didn't need elite strength you'd think he should at least be able to compete with buns of steel just to get in the NFL...

I engaged my core and my sphincter. Double winning. Power level almost 9000.

You just made me engage my core ty 😂

So does the nuclear powerplant I get my electricity from.

Nothing beats the squat with three different bands just randomly wrapped around the guy. This is the kind of shit you do make fun of people who do the "functional training" or whatever not to train a freaking pro athlete.

This crappy work out makes my core itch

if he reads this, he's finally gonna burst a vein

@@DROGOC0P maybe Dr Mike just needs to stimulate the nervous system more to prevent that

doing these exercises makes my core itch

😂😂😂😂

Final form Brady 😂

@@euphoniums That would be a huge waste of his time though.

Honestly these sorts of men's celebrity/athlete fitness videos (that don't have said athelete in it, just throw him in the title and thumbnail) are probably as much advertisement and exposure for the trainer and they just throw something super general together.

@@euphoniums If you look at Brady's body, its pretty clear he isn't doing any sort of excellent weight training. His position doesn't really require elite strength or even athleticism. Brady is a freak of nature in terms of work ethic, arm talent, "football IQ" and injury-avoidance. There may be some benefit in his style of training for injury prevention, but i tend to suspect he's just been lucky, has good genetics for staying healthy, and has benefited from rules designed to keep QBs healthy. Brady wouldn't have been any better if he were stronger or more explosive, because his style of playing the position doesn't require those things

To be fair at his age he can’t train with weights and play QB/take the hits. Resistance bands were probably safer for him in the long run

Yeah the fatigue cost of training to failure often outweighs the benefits, especially if you're also needing to recover in time to play a sport.

Worth noting, Dr. Mike was specifying for in season training. It's not bad to train for hypertrophy out of season when the accumulation of fatigue isn't a problem.

Theyd be like its rigged anyway

Wait you do you know that he lifted crazy amount of weights in college right. Have you seen his combine photos

Yeah if you’ve ever moved faster than a walk, or jumped, your knee goes over your toe. It’s one of the weirdest prohibitions out there. I guess using your knees puts strain on them, but no one would suggest you should never run or bend your knees because it causes wear and tear.

Sounds like he wanted his receivers slim and fast. Not bulky and slow.

@@sgt.lincolnosiris4111 Edelman was definitely not bulky and slow and he is a lifter.

plyometrics are necessity in training for any professional athlete. sport specific movements that help keep your fast twitch fibers explosive are essential. but most of what we saw in this video was none of that.

orrrr the 7 time sb champ and GOAT of football actuality believes it because it led to a 20+year career for him...... but yeah let's compare an injury preventing routine to a juiced up dr Mike routine, makes no sense

he doesnt train this way

This is so true. Great comment. Rationality and skepticism is great but your comment on buying in has got me thinking about how sometimes blind faith in something could be more “productive” than no faith in it at all. I don’t think it’s willing ignorance but more like a whole hearted acceptance of it. Hope i find “my thing” one day lol

Yes, and also showlights the danger in getting conclusions from the results without understanding the process at all, like the example you provide, your family member may think it was attributed to specific things she consumed (i.e chicken over steak, rice over pasta, etc.), without understanding calorie deficit. This is why we can also see big bodybuilding influencers attributing their progress in the gym to specific not-that-important stuff, and portraying it as a life changing tip to get you jacked.

It is shocking how poorly many professional athletes train and eat. But they still perform like they aren't even human. They are so gifted that poor training and diet doesn't impact them so much. Until you've spent time around one of them, you don't realize just how much more talented they are than the rest of us.

@@WalkerSmallEnginePerformance I’m washed up now (41) but played college football back in the day. I was the kid in high school running the sand hills and doing hundreds of push-ups trying to be like Walter Payton or Jerry Rice, then I get to college and play with dudes who eat Doritos all day and smoke weed before practice and still are better athletes than me lol.

If your knees are locked you are much less likely to cheat during the set. And with this triceps exercise there is no shock to absorb

@@benjamindavis2475 I was actually expressing two separate thoughts here, but since you brought it up, there is absolutely compression going on if you're talking about the banded triceps extension at around 12:00

Bro what shock absorption, you're doing a tricep isolation exercise, not 80%+1RM deadlifts..

@@maxk880 The extension is almost directly above the head. And he actually brings up spinal compression earlier in the video. If you can't see why this sort of extension compresses your spine, maybe you need to spend more time learning something instead of trying to come up with the right jargon to create the illusion you know what you're talking about on comments boards.

Could you imagine Brady showing up to various things with his goofball of a trainer? His teammates are probably like... brady's over there doing his own goofy sh*t again with that goofy trainer. The trainer filibusters during practice. I insist Brady stop this practice immediately as it's counter productive to his core. Can I get a copy of Tom's practice regimen this season so we can see what practices and drills Tom will be participating in. Next think you know he's calling Brady's plays.

as a beginner you couldn't have stumbled on a better source of info.. good luck!

Tom is a women give him a break

If that were true he’d still be on the first set of some of those exercises.

Actually he’s a beast in the pocket it’s when he leaves it he’s ducked

Well he didn't do anything that beat up his joints, so at least there's that! Lol.

That's called Tom Brady's genetics irrespective of awful training

@@BrofUJu The NFL would never allow it! lol

@@AscendedWalrus Genetics, a healthy overall lifestyle, and injury luck (only one big injury in 2008). Most QBs get knocked out when they get an injury that they never fully recover from (at least to a professional athlete level).

​@@TheGreektrojantom avoiding injury had more to do with his awareness and changing his play style than any fitness routine

Her head would probably burst if she saw you squating with 140 kilos on your spine.

There's trainers in my gym training people doing some absolute nonsense as well, I'm sure Dr. Mike would rip them up just like this. It's wild. Half range of motion goofy stuff.

@@rustyclark6306 I told her that I can squat over 140kg and that my back was strong enough to support two 7.5kg dumbells but she insisted that it was wrong and that if I was really strong I should do everything standing up because that engages the core. Unbelievable. After this exchange, she went on to tell a guy doing lat pulldowns that he should not arch his back when pulling down because it doesn't work the lats and that you should be literally straight the whole rep. My man was doing perfectly fine lat pulldowns I can't believe people like this are working on gyms.

She's actually not wrong, you can google this. Sitting leaning forward is about the worst position to be for your L4/L5 and L5/S1 intervertebral discs. Standing up is even less compression force and laying down on your back is the least amount of compression force. If you're young, healthy, drink plenty of water, and get plenty of sleep, it's nothing to worry about right now. 30 lbs shouldn't be much to worry about. But trust me, I've seen enough disc herniations from lifters working and just like a rotator cuff tear, it's best to avoid it. Otherwise even after surgery and PT, it's something you have to live with forever. So TLDR; she's right but the load isn't anything to worry about unless your ass is really hunched over and you do it for years and ego lift with 35s. I do my Lateral raises standing it because I have a way better mind muscle connection, I feel when I'm in that seated position, I'm just training my ego not my middle delts lol

@@BrofUJu same. Garbage sets and reps galore with long rest periods in between, lol! Unsurprisingly none of them get stronger or look any different to the day they started.

Did you keep your core engaged?
