  Dr. Mike had some WILD commentary on this one we could&apos;t show on Youtube. &nbsp;Become a member for the extended and uncensored &apos;Exercise Scientist&quot; episodes! <a href="https://bit.ly/37esL8i">https://bit.ly/37esL8i</a>

  I can&apos;t help but notice a lot of these celebrity routines don&apos;t actually have the celebrity doing them, which leads me to believe these are more like paid endorsements from whoever is publishing these.

  I don&apos;t know man. Lebron is damn near 40 and he&apos;s still dominating the league. Whatever he&apos;s doing seems to be working.

  As an Athletic Trainer who works in sports medicine I appreciate that Mike points out the difference between an athletic trainer and a strength and conditioning specialist and/or personal trainer. Our title indicates medical training, certification, and licensure and unfortunately often gets co-opted by personal trainers wanting to sound more official. While we are educated in the science behind effective training and sport performance we like to leave that realm to specialists like Mike while we focus on getting athletes recovered from their injuries

  Seeing a bunch of non PHDs disagreeing because Dr. Mike was somewhat critical of Brons&apos; workout is hilarious stuff.

  Would love to see a “Training the Perfect [Pitcher, Linebacker, Point Guard, etc]”<br><br>Would be fascinating to see how Mike would prescribe the balance of sports specific movements vs strength training vs cardio etc<br><br>I’ve mentioned this before, and another commenter mentioned James on your team. Would be great to have him as a guest on a series like this, with your modern/improved production value you’ve had the last couple years.

  The thing I&apos;m learning from working through these playlists is a lot of PTs might be great people (and maybe great coaches) but are often working on outdated research or a very basic foundation of knowledge...

  &quot;And no one will talk to you in school...&quot;<br><br>I&apos;d bet real money that humor is a way to cope with actual pain. &nbsp;I just wanna hug Mike, but I can&apos;t, so I&apos;ll watch the video twice and maybe he can hug his Lamborghini.

  The moment you paused to “explain” what a Spider-Man is, I knew where you were going and it loudly cracked me up on the metro into work. Well done, Dr. Mike!
