What product should Dr. Mike try next!? Comment below!

Scott and Mike finally understanding the algorithm lol

No one will ever convince me that the shake weight is anything other than an inside joke about cranking a hog that spiraled wildly out of control into a successful product.

You blew it dr. Mike. If you had laid on your side facing the camera to do the thigh master you would have broke the Internet .

Fun fact: the neck slimmer can actually be very useful, but not for slimming necks. I’ve used it to help improve epiglottic inversion on patients with swallowing difficulties. It mimics an exercise we perform called the shaker maneuver, but the neck slimmer allows us to add resistance to it.

I want to see Dr. Mike review fitness based video games. Ring Fit. Switch/Wii Sports. Fitness Boxing. Beat Saber. Pokemon Go. Etc.

Scott the video guy: you’re a genius. Down to the shots, cuts, and music-I felt like I was back in the 90s

The shake weight was 2009. I know because my father bought one despite my protest. I now keep it in an acrylic case in my gym as a shrine to stupidity.

My favorite thing about "shake weight" is the bigger/tougher model came in black vs the puny white one.

Finally, we have the long awaited Mike x Shakeweight video. The collaboration that was written in the stars.

The body blade and the jawsercise idea (post jaw surgery) are rehab tools that marketers decided would be good for the general healthy population. Like the little resistance bands used in PT, they aren't for overall fitness.

I bought one of the electrified ab belt things when I was like a freshman in high school, so probably 2001 or so. This one you had to apply a gel to the reverse side (to prevent electrical burns lol) and then you strapped it on against bare skin. It definitely caused mild involuntary contractions (more like spasms) but also shocked the shit out of you even with the gel. I ended up throwing it out, not because it didn't get me a 6 pack (it didn't), but because using it was terrifying and painful.

I’m glad that Scott the video guy has his own microphone now, he’s moving up in the world

My hope is to someday get Scott in front of the camera so we can finally see who’s been keeping Dr. Mike alive this whole time

I found an old 6 seconds abs machine in my grand-parents' house when I was about 10 y old. 10 reps made my abs strong enough to break the machine. Best abs workout of my life.

So disappointed Mike didn’t reference the South Park episode, “Crème Fraîche,” that centered around Sharon Marsh getting the most out of her Shake Weight.😂

Mike should react to old supplement ads. Like those old muscle tech ones which guaranteed 1,000,000% testosterone. Or even to see how golden/silver era practices and recommendations hold up today

When I was in school to become a physiotherapist I went to an internship in a hospital where they used something like the bodyblade to improve balance in elderly patients with Parkinson's or who were rehabbing from strokes. I made makeshift sandbag by rolling up ankle weights and had them throwing them around. They enjoyed it a lot more and their balance metric improved greatly.

The South Park shake weight episode is comedy gold! I'd love an episode with Dr. Mike commenting on current fitness products.

My mom was always wearing out those vibro belts. They must have been a good workout!

I remember at that time a lot of people implicitly trusted whatever was being shown to them on the TV and there weren't the easily accessible sources of information we have today to counter the crap or to give people good fundamentals. (Without getting a trainer, going to school, finding the right book, getting a gym membership, whatever) So when someone came along and looked healthy and successful, showed their fake clients looking healthy and successful, and selling an easy solution that cost a few bucks and promised to solve your problem without any effort from yourself, people ate it up.

The bodyblade (or something like it) actually is used as a rehab device. It was part of my shoulder rehab when i had a very minor partial tear. Along with bands, light weights, cables. And my name on s wall with i miniature heavy skate 12 weeks later and my shoulde was recovered.

I was hoping to see the gazelle. My dad was obsessed with those commercials and bought one. It was so fun as a kid to swing around on, and my dad used it maybe one time. My sister in law has one now.

Omg! 😂 I'm dying!!! Love you guys! Thanks Scott the video guy for getting all those contraptions for Mike to use.

Hilarious reviews! I’d love to see a series of Dr Mike doing Beach Body workouts, ESPECIALLY Insanity😊

I see body blades in a lot of physical therapy offices. I'm curious what the rationale behind using those is.

Someone at my gym left a Shake Weight on the dumbbell rack. 😂 It stayed there for quite some time; I never did see anyone using it.

I’ve learned so much foundational in-depth knowledge from this channel and yet… This is by far one of my favorite videos. Just look at his face! Dr. Mike looks happier than a kid on Christmas morning as he receives these gifts and debunks all this nonsense. It warms my heart the exact same way as when my nephew opening up presents on Christmas morning 🥰

Scott killed it with that cover image, hahah! 😂 I bet that was a fun photo shoot

We all knew Dr. Mike was going to be a pro at the shake weight. He was probably thinking of Jason Mamoa the whole time he used it.

Please use these in the gym as a prank video coming up. Mike using these devices to failure would be amazing😂😂

I love that the Thighmaster 800# is the hold music that corporate hr uses where I work.

"6-Second Abs" As a kid born in the 90's I can confirm my Mom had this

I knew exactly how this was going to go and Mike did not disappoint

I didn't realize the shake weight was that old, it had a resurgence around 2010. I was hoping to see the EZ-Crunch make an appearance; it was similar to the 6 second abs, but it used giant rubber bands so you could actually adjust the resistance.

My brother had a Bullworker back in the 80s. Incredible that it’s still being made and sold.

Jawzrsize really helped me because before the age of 13 I ended up having my jaw shattered and titanium plates put in my jaw and I babied the left side for so long yet still was able to build muscle to the point that they couldn't take the plates out when I turned 18 and several years later I came across his video post motorcycle accident and it really really helped me out but it's not for everybody. It gave me the opportunity to be able to bite into an apple without paying it also gave me the ability to yawn without struggle because imagine yawning and your mouth having to have close itself which gets rid of the on and then it comes back and you are in a never-ending cycle of trying to finish it because you can't open your mouth up far enough and the muscles were atrophied enough that it would instinctively clamp down halfway through the range of motion

Mike the body blade is legit! They still use it for physical therapy - improved my shoulder pain and gains under the instruction of a Pt with that a while back

Dr. Mike is hands down one of the funniest people I've ever seen!

Yea, my one therapy center was using a very long body blade for therapy. It was for helping my shoulder become more coordinated since it had been injured.

I saw a neat article years ago that showed how the shakeweight has been re-invented multiple times in history as a health device. I guess people really just do like shaking.

MORE OF THIS PLEASE!

The Gazelle Freestyler, Bowflex, anything Richard Simmons made, Total Gym, ab rollers, and Tony Little videos.

That "Vibro Shape" belt looks like a newer version of the famous Walton Belt machine. You know, that one that jiggled your belly fat around and was popular in the 1950s-1960s, even though it did nothing.

😂 Dr Mike, you are too hilarious

This video alone is worth the membership price

LOL, Amazing! Let's get the modern one next; with the stepper, the "prison" version of Sandow's squeezable dumbbell, the new 6 pack electric shock trainers with the "secret navy seal" technology, the iron chest master, and some kind of bar with band attachments.

Had the thigh master and the vibro belt back in my (lazy) attempts to lose weight and get fit.The thigh master I thought worked (copium from actually moving) but all the vibro belt did was shock me repeatedly.

I SWEAR that Shakeweight has been on the back table of this backdrop for forever, finally decided to use it. I'd imagine a LOT of the sales for Shakeweight is for gag gifts. They also didn't play my favorite part of the "Neckline Slimmer" product...it's a "spot reduction" tool for ladies with "turkey neck", truth. Find the infomercial...it was one of my favorites.

I actually worked my jaw out while watching by laughing so fucking hard!! HAHA!! love that video!! LOL

Finally, a way to harness the power of vibration *and* inertia and make them work for me!

Please do a vintage fitness video review series!! You could buy a VHS player TV combo and everything it would be awesome!

The body blade helped me after shoulder surgery. It didn’t make me jacked but it did make my shoulder feel more stable and is a great warm up. Maybe it’s all mental but it worked for me.

"Vibration and inertia: nope, neither one of those are forces. ... This is perfect bullshit." Thanks, Dr. Mike for the chuckle and an entertaining walk down memory lane. I remember those commercials. 😊

I used to progressively overload my forearms to the shake weight instructional video when I was 13.

13:49 For when you need to give a stranger on the bus the ride of his life.

Lmao I love Dr Mikes humor it’s the best on KZfaq for sure

That jaw thing is probably horrible for your teeth. I'd appreciate a review of the under the desk cycle, the sciatic nerve anklet thing, and the teeter fitspine.

The thing about the 90's, people were super busy and always in a hurry. They needed to workout anywhere and everywhere and workouts needed to be quick. And also, springs!

I'm sure you could do a fun video on Tony Little? There was also a 'squat assist' stool kind of thing I remember seeing, that looked amazing! ❤️

What do you mean that the shake weight has no progressive element? You just shake it harder and harder. You can even count the number of reps/sec to have an objective measure of progression. Which exercises your brain, too! Also, it trains you to homogenize just-peanuts peanut butter or quarts of paint (as an alternative to stirring).

This is my most favorite video you have ever done. 100 percent need to do more of these

"It feels like someone shaking you." I lost it. I love you Dr Mike!

God I love Dr. Mike I just smile and laugh every damn time and I’m getting great information for the most part , this video being maybe the only exception

Oh man I was with this girl a long time ago and we saw a shake weight commercial on tv. I said "who the hell would be dumb enough to buy that shit?" and she told me that her mom had one. I immediately kms.

13:23 lmao Dr Mike's primal instincts immediately took over, he didn't wait a single second to make that joke 🤣

Bodyblade actually really helps with my shoulder and core issues. I like their workouts too.

Recently, I was forced to use a pen for 5 or 6 hours, and I had fucking DOMS for 3 days. I'm a climber. I can dead hang for multiple minutes off of a 5mm grip with 20kgs of gear in a rucksack, and writing with a pen gave me pretty severe DOMS in my hand and forearm 😅 So, to everyone that complains about their ergonomic keyboards, try a pen for a day, then give that keyboard some sloppy apology lovin'

This is your funniest video yet, I was howling. Love this channel, keep it up!

My most fond memory from the 90's commercials are "The Sauna Belt" - which is kinda like a hot electric WWE-belt that you put around your waist to get rid of the subcutis fat and those damned lovhandles.

Gotta love how the "most replayed" segment is the part at the beginning with Suzanne Somers in that KILLER high waist one piece.

Dr.Mike: “ok that was inappropriate, I’ll stop.” Me: “Please don’t.” 💯🤣🤣

Mike is a perfect combo science/knowledge and humor/kinkyness💪🏻

6:29 I've never seen Dr. Mike more happier than this 😂

Something that happens with a lot of as seen on TV products is that they're actually a way for manufacturers making products for people with specific needs to leverage the economies of scale by selling to a wider market while being of dubious utility to the able bodied. By far the largest portion of these are kitchen gadgets where a lot of them are designed around weak grips, poor motor function, etc;

My God. I was a hellion and stayed up until 1-2 in the am in my early teens. These commercials between nick at night were comforting.

I knew PT after my car accident was an expensive joke… they made me use the body blade for 3 sets of 60 seconds

Entertaining & educational...my husband who's is a Physical Therapist rolls his eyes when seeing anything like you're reviewing. There is currently a LegXerciser advertised on later night TV, that actually says "It's like having a Physical Therapist in your home". Yikes.

The graphics and the music was legit 💪

Mike. I'm laying on my living room carpet and i'm unable to move. I want to thank you for giving me some inspiration to do my leg day correctly. I also have to go and buy a car with an automatic transmission, because i'm physically unable to press the clutch after my leg workout.

1:12 So THAT'S what that was for! My parents had this and for the longest time I never knew which exercise it was meant to be used for.

"I always wanted a name *where* hyman was in it" -Dr. Mike, 2024

Oh god guys, this is the best video you've done yet. 🤣🤣🤣

Mike should have done one last segment in this video where he demos these products all at once. It would be hilarious,

You have very quickly become one of my favourite channels

I had to use a body blade as part of PT for rehab for rotator cuff repair surgery. It was exhausting on those little muscles in the shoulder...for the first 2 weeks after surgery. After that they dropped it from the plan.

This is great! Laughed hard at this! I appreciate how you attack ideas over people and most importantly make it funny

I've seen alot of physical therapists use bodyblade. Thought it was good for stabilizer muscles

Dr Mike and a shake weight. I just hit play so hard I shot my phone across the room.

That Shake Weight demo wasn’t nearly inappropriate enough and I’m deeply disappointed in you, Mike.

You had me laughing so hard my abs are more sore for laughing the 1000 crunches.

Mike is such a natural with that Shake Weight

9:38 Half the reason I watch mike is cause he just drops these out of pocket quotes out of nowhere

At the physical therapy clinic I work at we use the body blade unilaterally to work shoulder stability but in a rehab setting.

On a vibroshake note, driving horrible roads in Kyrgyzstan did not make us thinner. But it did make every Apple Watch think we were getting 8K steps a day - while just sitting in a vehicle.

I have honestly not laughed this hard in a LONG time

My grandparents had all of these in their house growing up 😂

That ATM machine I remember that didn't they eventually have one that you put your head on and then you just push with your head just your abs

All i could think the whole time was "I hope he's covering the Tower 200" but alas no such luck. You gotta daw!? You gotta gym!

3:46 nice! I dig the Beavis and Butthead laugh adding to the 90’s vibe!
