I pointed my thumb at you as well. I’m glad we could both agree that it was your fault.

As a physiologist I can say this is probably the most important, and most well communicated physical health video you will ever watch.<br>Well done Doc!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=copZ2Apv-Vg&t=124">2:04</a> Old women can be just as dumb. We discover the ultimate menopause hack is weightlifting x conditioning, wooed by new PRs, vo2 max higher than when we were in our 20s, endorphins through the roof, and get smacked down through our own ignorance of the divergent time/adaptation curve. Thanks for this video.

This might be the single best compilation of joint health guidance I have ever seen. Just shared it with my whole military team. This is gonna help a lot of people (assuming they follow the wisdom).

I've been watching lifting videos for years and never heard about the muscle/tendons divergence. Amazing stuff here.

“Your ego left unsupervised” 😂😂😂 That’s me on a climbing wall, doing a one-hand hang and trying to get over a negative incline while my millenial daughter cheers on from above.<br>Few years later, I was surprised that the “pop” I had heard used to be my radio-ulnar ligament! <br>But hey, I made it over the ledge. And the wrist behaves as long as I keep in shape and avoid certain load angles.

The low key sarcasm alone is worth watching these videos. As I get older, I literally count 1,2,3 up-1,2,3 down. Has reduced shoulder pian on overhead presses.
