I really enjoyed this course and left a 5 star review (under Edward A). Would it be possible to get a video about how to cut while training BJJ and avoiding muscle loss? I've watched some of your other excellent videos on how to maintain muscle while cutting but would appreciate hearing how you would flex that approach for a BJJ athlete.

@@Smaddersdoes it include a program

@@leo9982 yes it includes samples

Hey ! What frequency should we be lifting with? I have purchased the product and it was awesome and I will start it tommorow. I’m just wondering how to program in terms of frequency ? Thanks !

I programmed this 3 day program but realised it’s low frequency: Day 1 - Squat 3x5-10 BB Row 3x5-10 Hammer Curl 3x10-12 Wrist Curl 3x12-15 Day 2 - Bench 3x5-10 Press 3x5-10 DB Upright Row 3x10-12 Band Ext 3xFailure Day 3 - Deadlift 3x5-10 Wtd Chin-Up 3x5-10 Rear Delt Flye 3x10-12 Leg Raise 3x1RIR

It's fn nuts lol

Exactly what I was thinking! 😂 Why so serious Dr Mike? Where's all the filthy humour?

And he’s slightly less unhinged (only downside)

AND HE HAS HAIR😭😭

Hardly recognized him at first

Amen

Mike is "boring" and doesn't try to appeal to the masses. He just gives lectures. If you're listening to lectures for lifting then your in the minority

@@noahsd he isn't boring anything compared to many other hard science channel! He is actually funny. Thing is most viewers need base of knowledge (which they get from 3-5 min simpler videos) and don't have attention span or doesn't want to give attention for so long (avg. 20-30min)

@@nw3877 Bro im on youre side, Thats why I put boring in quotations

@@noahsd The irony is he wrote about attention deficiency! 😂😂

Same good stuff bro

You dropped this 👑

That was very smug of you! JK thank you so much! - Dr. Mike

Have you found a good balance? I’m currently balancing all 3. My lifting is only legs and push-ups since it’s the only thing the other two don’t take care of.

And curious about balancing grip exercises.

@@Genital.Wartzenegger Having juggled the same 3, I'd say rules of thumb are hard to come up with due to individuality. My experience is that forearm overuse-issues are a real risk, so I'll probably use straps more in the gym than I do now once I continue training all three simultaneously, and I'll choose one to focus on with two sessions each week, do one of the other two, and only add a fifth if I know I can make it really light and technical, but that's just me and what I can tolerate just now.

Rock climbing is just BJJ with a wall

@@MentalGains As a climber-turned-bjj-practitioner, I've always described BJJ as versus mode for bouldering :D

SAME HERE! 30y/o white belt

What is your split buddy?

"Captain" I believe :D @@Pagode923

Do you do cardio outside of bjj or use this for cardio, thanks

Luke Thomas Ay I love your work Luke, didn't know you'd be a fan of Mike!

Of course I am! He's one of the most reliable, smart voices in KZfaq powerlifting.

LUKE THOMAS IN THE HOUSE! Love your work, keep it up! Thanks for recommending this video!

Been successful implementing these?

Luke your MMA insights are phenomenal. Keep up the awesome work.

Thank you for your comment. I'm a powerlifter and was considering taking up Judo (not bjj) and I was wondering if I could lift heavy and do a martial art with any amount of consistency in both

@@erusean8492 yes you can. I’ve trained judo on and off for years. Judo can be harder on the body than BJJ. A lot of hard landing and break falls. I would say at minimum you’d have to train judo 3x per week to see improvement and commit the throws to muscle memory. Idk to what degree you’re powerlifting, but I’d start slow and listen to what my body is telling me. Powerlifting takes a good deal of rest and recovery.

​@@BadgerBJJ3x weight lifting and 3x martial arts per week?😮 Ye are probably doing way too much if yer martial art trainings are longer than 40 minutes (warm-ups and stretcyes are excluded).

@@Dave.Mustaine.Is.Genius not really. If you’re looking to compete or train at higher levels 3x isn’t enough. Not all training needs to be 100%, but you should be on the mats almost every day, in addition to supplemental work. At the elite levels, 2x per day.

Ye are probably doing way too much if yer martial art sessions are longer than 40 minutes. (Warm-ups and stretches exlucded)

Which of the paths did you end up choosing?

Update, this video saved my life overall. Thanks Dr. Mike! Many months later and still going strong! Now doing a 5/3/1+ Beyond program with focus on some volume towards heavier weights to train lifting. I also deload every 4th week, as I do martial arts sometimes 4 times a day (anywhere from 1 to 2 hour sessions).

LOL the blinking means you're a genius.

How is that schedulle working out for you so far? Do you modify your lifting on days you lift or you just lift normally like u used to before u started judo?. Iam 50 and started bjj 3x aweek and wanna do fullbody lifting workouts 3x a week. I been working out since my 20s too.

@@futbol1972 The schedule has been great so far; depending on my other commitments, I alternate between training two -a days -weights in the morning and judo in the evening 3 days a week or option two when work gets crazy ill train weights Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Judo Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday when I can make it. Like everything else, in the beginning, the weights I could handle in the gym took a nose dive because of the added stress and recovery requirements, but I found keeping the program simple. I train using the 5x5 framework, and as you get used to the program, you can experiment with different rep ranges. The key is to start gradually, and over time, your body adapts provided you compensate with extra calories and enough sleep (I found this out the hard way when I first started; I wasn't eating enough and getting enough sleep, so my weight dropped pretty fast now that I've remedied that issue I've actually started gaining weight on this program. Hope that helps

@@mwaurakirore6115 thank u for yr great advice. Yea iam thinking of doing bjj M,W and F at 6am then the same day at 7pm do full body lifting workouts..I tought the 5x5 was to lift heavy? People been telling me I gotta change the way I lift now rhat I started doing jujitsu. I just bought a titan selectorized lat pull down machine and a functional trainer and now I feel I don't need these machines anymore:(

@@futbol1972 Check out Bill starrs 5x5 training routine that he used for football players and then ammend accordingly. The key is to experiment and find out what sets and reps work for you based on your current goals,condition, your level of fitness, ability to recover etc this is just what works for me:)
