This Hobbit would simply walk into Mordor
He is clearly a Dwarf dude
🤣
But wouldntbeqnle to resist slipping his finger into the ring regularly
Made my fkin day hahahahah
He’s an undecover hobbit. That’s why he shaves his head and body…
he’s 5’5 guys
5'5 and 240 is huge.
Yeah I was gonna say
Nah he just said 4'11.5"
Dr Mike would never lie to me!
Nah in the gym lore he’s 4’11.5
Ultimate bald hobbit.
He is taller horizontally.
Such an underated comment!

@@tynanmenezes773 I Had a GF when I was younger.
Its easier to jump him then to go around him 😂
😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
All this time I thought this guy was sitting in his videos…
WHAT😭😭
😂😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha
😆🤣🤣
Hé is 2’8
Dr. Mike talking about every single fist or 2 finger increments on the way in got me BRICKED up 😩
Same😂
LMFAO
My room now has sticky white substance all over it
Wtf.....
Real
I thought Mike was joking about the height but seeing him stand on that may pulldown he truly is a short king
hes 5'5
source: some other guys comment
that explains his obsession with bodybuilding, he must be so insecure lol
@@Danuxsy That makes zero sense.
you sure? Most short men are insecure about their height@@Sokan1993
@@DanuxsyI don’t think he’s insecure buddy he literally said he had a height deficiency and he’s definitely rich and he’s shredded I’m sure he’s perfectly fine
This man has calmly walked into my life and has me living by every word. The jokes and humility are cherries on top, love Dr Mike
Will you ever talk about the foreskin wraparound pulldown? I know you can't physically do it doc but it would be useful.
Dear god
You gotta do a lot of stretching exercises beforehand. It doesnt target the lats nor the glutes as much as other exercises. IMO its not really worth it.
@@JB-hj1qt How else am I gonna train the glans??
@@RealestKingaJust jack off like the rest of us. I mean you’re already on the right TH-cam channel. Just remember to superset.
Ayo
I'm 5'9" with almost all my friends being 6' or taller, which means I'm also 4'11.5" tall. Short kings rise up.
5’7 to 5’11 is literally the average height for males you are NOT short.
Yea you are not short , don't let the liberal propoganda get to you.
Exactly it's cringe, people keep moving the goal higher to feel included. People are now saying 5'10 is considered "short king energy"
you are not short my guy
Ignore the comments here, you're a manlet. Everyone below 6 feet is
Doc is so sassy for no damn reason 💀
He told us his reason, he's 4'11. Jk
Idfc how short you are, you're still a great man and I love your contents!!
coulden't have said it better
For me a wide grip on the latpull down feels really uncomfortable in my shoulders and in the beginning of my fitness journey I think I pulled something there. So I never went back, thinking I was physically unable to do it.
Glad I learned the truth at some point and looking back this feels kinda silly, but when you’re new to all of this, stuff like this can really drag you down.
So thanks Dr. Mike for putting this out 👍🏻 You might’ve opened up a newbie’s eyes and kept them going
What is better for building your lats?
@@mechastro2205 All are viable to build you lats. I remember picking up that gripping wider or narrower will target the outer or inner part of your lats more respectively, but I’m personally not sure if that’s completely true and how much of a difference it actually makes.
My best advice to you would be to just try around a bit and find out what feels best to you personally. As long as you feel your lats you’re good to go.
Yup. Same here. My shoulder gets all snap, crackle and pop when I do wide grip lat pull downs or pull-ups. Thankfully, medium grip doesn’t cause that problem.
@mechastro2205 I personally feel a better stretch with narrow but experiment and see what feels best for you gang
@@JB-hj1qt okay bet I’ll do that
Awesome seeing someone bounce back from a challenge while still trying to help others.
Idk if Ive been imagining it, but wide grip to me feels much more like its an upper back movement. Whereas narrow tracks the arms in and puts a lot of tension on the lats proper.
Yeah that’s what I’ve felt as well, only issue for me is more narrow hits my arms more so it’s rly hard to maximize my lat engagement
@@tinocabral4201I could only speculate as to why, but I always do narrow grip underhanded like a close chin up grip. That hits my lats pretty well.
Why that is? I would guess that maybe the elbows tracking inward like that pre stretches the lats. And a supinated grip sort of naturally keeps them turned in. That's just a guess though.
@@qp9259 yeah I’ve heard it’s more aligned with your frontal plane or the natural pathway but idk
@@qp9259my thinking is that the lat runs along my ribs/spine idk but it runs upwards when I stand up, and the lat pull down with narrow grip has my hands traveling at that same angle
its the exact opposite. Both grips will hit midback. You can't isolate one from the other. Narrow grip will just get more bicep involvement due to your elbows having to bend more during the rep.
I had no idea you were short
2mins in and this man spoke to my soul 🙏🏾💯
I was flabbergasted, shocked, surprised, astonished, overwhelmed, dismayed, speechless
It’s about the grip not his height.😫
Now this dudes knuckles scrape when he’s rollerblading
We all know you're actually 4'10,but I guess every inch counts😂
My legit reaction about hearing the height reveal was the high pitched "Broooooo" that trailed for 5 seconds.
What a disconnect from my expectations
Being 4”11 keeping you big as hell
Edit: i commented for the first time on yt and wow i got likes😭
Bro smelled a dumbell
Was he being serious!?
@@JG1rni have no idea but judging by how he can’t reach the pull down bar i think he might be 😭
@@emossardI’m 5’3 and ask my friend to pull the bar for me only so I can get a good grip but can still reach it if I tiptoe w one hand💀 I think he actually is 4’11
4'11" and ½, please. 😂😂😂
Rotating delts to get bar to the solar plexus can create delt pain. Just below the clavicle keeps belts more stable and safe.
I like this guy.... seems like good guy that has good sense of humor, good knowledge of what he does & why..
"Oh my God, i can see the world!"💀
Thank you so much.
Gotta love a guy that can poke fun at himself
I relate to you fellow short lifter, i am so happy to know somebody under 5 foot is one of the coolest workout people on the internet
Gripping the lat pulldown bar keeping you big as hell
😂 i think he is joking about being exactly 1/2 inch under 5 😂
He's 5'5
Its the 511 being 6 troph, comedy level sienfeld
Cool!!
I guess I need to get a pull up bar somewhere .
Bro it is so good that you are not insecure about your height. God bless❤
4’11” KING!!
🔥 ABSOLUTE UNIT 🔥
I may be 6’4”, but ain’t no way I’m able to do anything but look up to this guy.
Thats a huge pulldown machine.
Dr Mike is built like a meatball
He found another way to teach sitting down
You're the biggest Dwarf I've ever seen Dr. Gimli. 💪🏼😃👍🏻
Bet no one is gonna toss you.
Don't worry we wont tell the elf. 😉
I find a narrow grip feels more comfortable and I am activating my lats more than when I use a wider grip. Glad to know there's no penalty.
Define no penalty. It's fine bc it works, doesn't mean it's not working on the same muscles. Wide grip is more lat do my dominant, aka becoming wide. Narrow grip is more mid dominant and uses more bicep, hence it's easier, and gives more thickness. You should use both throughout your training.
@@aydinsha You literally got it completely backwards, good job😂
@@Enyamasparw no I didn't. Wide grip increases width, narrow grip increases thickness. I was a gymnast and still very active, and have degrees on human bio. I can do 2x body weight pullups for sets of 10-15 with proper form, I guarantee I know more about this topic than you do.
@@Enyamasparwl
@@aydinsha would have expected Dr Mike to point out the differences between grip / muscle activation if there were any.
Dude! No wonder your a total beast! Your muscles are miniature
that's not right😮
I fuckin love your humor 🤣 you always get me laughing behind my screen like a pathetic hyena. I rarely laugh out loud when I’m by myself watching content too so that says a lot. Usually just a mental laugh or a smirk if sum was a lil funny
Hey Guys, Great content, informative and funny as hell, thank you and keep it up. Can you guys cover the science or technique used by Arm Wrestlers like Devon Larratt?
Having to stand up on the lat pulldown seat is next level suifuel
You're awesome bro
Lmfaooo sir sounds so stewie when he goes "woy woy oh my god i'm on top of the world"
its mind blowing information i,ll do next time❤
Pinkies right when it curves is honestly great for me
Your video r the best dude
That clanking sound reminds me of New Edition
All the videos Ive seen of him are only showing his top half, I never would have guessed
No one can stay straight with Dr Mike around
Bros fr a mini pekka
Dr Mike, length doesn't matter :D
- He’s 5 foot 6. (167.6 cm)
Probably more beneficial to use an underhand grip when doing a pulldown movement
Dudes the real life Puck!
Not me being 4ft 11in AND A HALF ON A GOOD DAY. 😭
But you're here. Any height is better than no height. :)
Nice!
Didnt really realize he was shorter.
I feel like it's super helpful for body building.
For some reason, I pictured Elmer Fud when he got up haha
I always knew he was a dwarf.
Can't wait for him to do a cover of misty mountain.
Aww lil guy! ❤
Seems like I usually never see a jacked bodybuilder who is also really tall. Arnold is an exception but, usually, the bodybuilders seem to be shorter because they can put on mass a lot easier. So, I'm not sure your "deficiency" is really any real disadvantage. That said, you're amazing and I really appreciate your content! Thanks for posting!
What lol, every olypian is quite tall
Bumsted is over 6 ft.
pal he was joking about the 4'11.5
I can't believe You are 4ft11 1/2.
You look like at least 5ft6
he is 5'6, he is messing with us
He's 5"5
He is. He always refers to himself by different short heights as a joke. I'm pretty sure he's actually 5'6 1/2
Guys is a joke
He’s 5’6
First time I've watched anything other than his review videos... I assumed his arms just looked short because of camera angles and him being stacked as hell.
Damn short man has more presence than any 6ft plus guy I know. 😂
Would like his analysis on pulldowns to the front as opposed to pulldowns wuth the bar to the back of the head.
Scott the video guy is doing the lords work being able to film dr Mike in a way he seems taller than what he actually is.
He would have to go around on his knees to film Mike.
Dynamite comes in small packages I've always heard
The last one 😮
You standing on that seat is my normal height 😂
His like 5'8 lmao
Id never have guessed he was that height. Good camera man is worth his weight in gold
Dr Mike being shorter than me make me feel better about myself
Never skip head day!😂
I wanna see him next to Brian Shaw
I tried the very small attachment for lat pulldown last back day. Idk what it is called but it is basically a very narrow v shaped grip.
I thought my lats were gonna rip off when i used it. You can stretch so fucking good with it.
Only problem was that it was very slippery and i have weak hands + you can't use straps on it.
I love you man
"I can see the woild" 😂
Someone check his feet for hairy toes
4'11 lol. Real talk though, give him the hair & claws and we'd finally have a comic accurate Wolverine.
Explain the rolling shoulder over more? Always have trouble with wide grip
I go for a on the cress grip feel good not too wide for me
Dang I thought he was 5'1 😂
God he has the perfect build needed to craft me the sword of legends. I shall go on a quest to find him.
This dude has that Broly physique in that picture.
YOU ARE NOT 4”11 QUIT PLAYING
Dude has the ultimate height genetics for muscle-building
I just climbed on the bench this morning! 5'2" baby Beast in the making! 1 of your 3.75 women subs! Oooo yall we are Dr. MIKES SUBS! Dirty!😅
Can we get a mini hulk series like Dr. Evil and mini me?
"How tall are you?"
"Tall enough that I don't include about halves"
Wait is he actually 4’11? I would have never thought that! Respect!
no he llied but hes like 5'5
4'11 1/2" manlet smaller than Coach Greg?!! Still, smarter than the average 5'9"+ dude....bravo!
No way ur 4 11 💀. Until you hopped on the seat
Does changing the grip hit the muscles differently? Or is it more for what’s most comfortable?
Pretty sure it hits them differently but not sure... was looking for a discussion about this but everyone is just trolling memes in the comments 😅
Is so true
Bro is ready to play Gimli spinoff
i started going to gym a month ago and mag grip bar is best thing ever
also i can grab the bar WHILE SITTING DOWN
because im 6'5,not that anyone cares :D
Dr. Mike is Oompa-Loompa sized
We stan our short king
