    As a healthcare professional myself and a long term competitive powerlifter (despite being “only” 45) I keep wondering why this channel isn’t more popular, since from a medical and scientific point of view it is probably one of the most accurate and reliable sources of information in this so called “online fitness community”, even if you’re like 25-30 and at the peak of your physical performance...

    • @GreySteel
      @GreySteel  3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      @signmeupruss 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I'm pretty sure the Greysteel channel is less popular than it deserves to be because Sully refuses to hide what it takes to live a healthful life. Dr. Sullivan tells viewers to get off their asses and do the work. Who wants to hear that? He tells them things like "eat mostly plants." Most people have no idea what that might mean. Does it mean put lettuce and an extra pickle on your cheese burger. If I supersize my fries they will be larger than my Big Mac, so that will be "mostly plants," right?
      Sully wants his viewers to know what it really takes to transition from the couch to the gym. He will not sugar coat what one will experience when they transform from the grandmother who lives her life in a seated position and unable to keep up with her grandchildren, to one who can not only pick up her forty-pound four year old granddaughter, but also carry her up the stairs to put her to bed. What an immense quality of life change that is, but too few have the gumption to follow Sully's lead to make it happen.
      I've been hanging around this channel for a few weeks now, and I'm recommending it to anyone who will listen. I hope Sully will keep slogging on, but I also hope that many more will accept the personal challenge to reinvent themselves, and subscribe to the channel while they're at it.

    Great message. The food claims pale to the claims from the "supplement" industry. I watched my Mom smoke her entire life, thinking she could dodge every bullet because she read Prevention magazine, buying all the supplements advertised. After battling breast cancer, lung cancer and COPD, she finally died because she could not breath on her own. Thanks for your great work Dr. Sully.

    My two cents
    I started strength training combination of heavy weight lifting and Olympic style lifts when I was 47 years old... I got pretty jacked 💪 problem was my diet was out of whack so I had what appeared to be a bubble gut.
    So I took up boxing 9 years ago to get leaner.. but lost all my muscle mass cuz I stopped strength training. But I still look pudgy. So I learned about intermittent fasting and Keto because I was insulin resistant. And over the course of 6 weeks all the excess fat melted off me. Now at 190 lb coming from 220... I do a combination of all those and I feel fantastic along with doing wind sprints. And I challenge any 20 something to a wind Sprint now.
    Loving life ☺️☺️😊😊☺️☺️

    I'm not allergic to gluten , most people aren't but it effects everyone the same. Gluten is a long chain protein that the body CAN NOT break down...once it passes through the stomach it clogs-up the intestinal where vitamins and minerals can't digest. This is why we all get in our late 30's and early 40's and start experiencing health problems of some kind including arthritis.
    I listened(and read their the books) and the advice to Dr Joel Wallach and Peter Glidden. Doing this my body healed itself of arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome.
    Eating habits and the right vitamins can heal over 99% of ailments.
    Check out those naturalpathic Doctors.

    I agree 100% with what you have said. I would never consider any type of diet in my life, all means is failure. We eat mostly home cooking take the leftovers for lunch to work. Drink soda very rarely I don't have a scale. I just try to stick with my weight training every other day, it keeps my aches and pains away from sitting at my job all day. And I do like my red wine at night, that is hard to give up. So that's the extent of my little plan. All the videos I have watched of yours are very common sense and I give them all a thumbs up!

    Life is hard. You might wish it wasn't or think it shouldn't be, but life does not care about that and it will be hard regardless. Embrace this fact and you are on the road to making it better.
    Failure to embrace this will lead to a life of discontent, resentment and self pity. Just take a look at the news to see this in action.

  • @darioinfini
    @darioinfini 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Doctors have been saying "diet and exercise" for years. Problem is most people don't want to believe it. And perhaps more accurately that's just a summary of what needs to be done. Specifically WHAT to eat, what not to eat, HOW to exercise, what form to use, what exercises to do -- that information wasn't so obvious years ago. Yes, SOME people knew it but it's hard to be a flabby fat guy and go to a gym and ask some musclehead for guidance.
    For me, it's been TH-cam that made this information accessible on channels like yours that helped bring it to an ignorant but willing audience and guide them on a path towards a healthy lifestyle, finally. For the first time in my life, in my 50s, I'm in better shape than I've ever been. I only wish I had access to this information and the will to follow it when I was younger. It would have been a life changer.

    Great exposé on the traps people sadly fall into. I met a certain 'raw food guru' in the 90s whom you pictured, who had a trail of young, female acolytes following him everywhere. He made $Ms from false health info and his brand of 'essential' supplements. He always had a team of lawyers to hand who would ruin anyone who tried to out him. Snake oil comes in many guises, which is why I love the authenticity of your advice, Doc.

    Another great video that hit it right on the head - finally someone who realizes there is no One way or One Magic Bullet
    I've been lifting weights for over 30 years I've done bodybuilding powerlifting and strongman competitions more recently than ever probably in the last 5 years or so 8 years I've been looking at how to gain more longevity in my body and in my health .
    I have done bodybuilding, powerlifting, Olympic lifts and strongman training
    More recently after reading and watching more videos for the Older n Wiser Lifter like ourselves I have dial back my wait percentages to about 70 to 85% so I can preserve my joints and tendons I have over 30 years of the joys of working out in my joints and this seems to be the right direction for me.
    Supplements I stand by are old school desiccated liver tablets Alfalfa tablets vitamin C tablets a b complex of 50 mg of all your B vitamins vitamin D at least 2000 IU's turmeric in a joint complex that contains glucosamine and chondroitin the shifts bioflex is one of my favorite I also use whey protein brewer's yeast creatine powdered Branch chain amino acids powder l leucine powder L-glutamine and L-Arginine.
    I hope you find this video and my comments helpful.

    When people hear this they may think you have to live at the gym.

As you start making gains and feeling better you will look forward to going to the gym, it will not be a burden.

    Appreciate the advise that for once is straight up the guts, I’m 47 years young but have been kicked in the balls from unhealthy body abuse of about ten years… and it’s taken the last 3 months of small group specific strength and conditioning to get a slow jog on….
    I’m well afar from target goals but with doing everything right from 3 months ago, I’ll turn it around 💯 %.
    Thanks a million.

    • @GreySteel
      @GreySteel  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I do not know. This is not a situation we have encountered.
      The question refers to Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes, a spectrum of RARE connective tissue diseases most affecting the important structural protein collagen, and resulting in derangements in tissue elasticity. This impacts the skin, joints, tendons, ligaments...and also the vascular tree.
      Before training an individual with one of these rare diseases, I would want endorsement from their primary physician, and I would be extremely conservative with loading and volume. I would probably use wraps liberally to help support joints, and my metrics for progress would be heavily modified.
      In summary, and to repeat: I don't know.

    Hi all yuall, Bottom line is be Disciplined at working out "daily a different body part" ( CHEST, or LEGS, Lats, Traps, Delts, Arms,) at a proven winner work out that is a significant stress TWICE A WEEK to produce muscle growth with appropriate protein, nutrition and sleep.
    I am age 79 and each Sunday and Tuesday I safely taking my time hammer out 20 sets x 15 reps of at home Chest dumbbell and Cables that keep on producing obvious muscle growth for the three following days. Weights are only 15 Lbs down to 10 pounds on my homemade incline bench.
    The same system is for Monday and Friday LEG cable curls, Saturday and Tuesday Lats, Traps, Delt pull activation.
    Create your personal workout, I order the cables, pullies, lat bar, handles online delivered to our tropical home on south Philippines beach.
    Of course Shoveling SNOW for your neighbors is great full body alternative!

    I give away for free one weird trick: be consistent. Do your workouts, not only when you feel good, but especially when you feel tired or down. You may not lift as much as on the days when you feel great, but it adds, and strength and health are long term goals, not six week programms.

    All very true. We need more debunkers and less BS experts and gurus. I think a large variety of resistant exercises is better than just barbells which can get boring. And forget the Glycemic Index, use the Human Interference index. Ninety percent of packaged food is harmful to some degree.

    What in your honest opinion are the drawbacks to fasting?

    • @GreySteel
      @GreySteel  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      1. It can be a bit perilous for those which hypoglycemia or diabetes, although people adapt with time and careful monitoring will help.
      2. It can be difficult to sustain.
      3. It usually requires a significant restructuring of life and training patterns. Worth it, in my opinion.
      4. Some people find that, given a narrow window for eating, they have trouble hitting their protein targets for heavy training.
      5. It requires a significant buy-in from significant others and family, who may not be exactly thrilled about it.
      6. I have found that it can interfere with sleep in a schedule-independent fashion. If you fast in the first half of the day, you go to bed with a full belly. Tummy-Grumble. If you fast in the second half of the day, you go to bed a bit hungry. Tummy-Grumble.
      7. As I near the end of a 16-hour fast, I often find that my stomach is a bit "sour."
      These and other drawbacks are real but not deal-breakers in my opinion. They tend to get better with time (some of them), and in my opinion the payoff is worth it if this nutritional approach works for you. But--and I must stress this again--I WILL NOT WORK FOR EVERYBODY. Because NO dietary strategy works for everybody.

      @Corey Lambrecht Exactly. Fasting is not for everybody, it has drawbacks, and it won't make you healthy on its own. It is a powerful approach to nutrition for those who can use it well and wisely and in conjunction with proper training and lifestyle factors. But it angers me to see it pushed as a one-size-fits-all panacea.

      This is a deep and dangerous pit of a topic. People have strong, almost religious feelings about it. I've written the script for a TRT episode a half-dozen times. One day I'll be happy with it. Bottom line: I wouldn't take it unless my doctor and I both agreed I needed it. And even then I'd be cautious. I've seen badness from medically-supervised TRT. Non supervised? I don't even want to think about it. Some guys need it. But that's a medical, not a coaching decision.

    Have been in shape my entire life and I'm in the top 10% of people in any gym anywhere in the world in strength and composition. Always done it with proper training and a focused and regulated diet that includes no special tricks and all food groups. I eyeball count my calories... I'm generally within about 5% error rate would be my estimation. I did use a food scale and read labels and so forth for about a year before going to the eyeball method but I'm pretty darn good at it and just keep a running number in my head throughout the day. But... I started fasting about 18 hours A-day every single day about 7 years ago and it definitely changed my overall physique in that I now walk around with abs/ vascularity etc...always... even though I did no caloric intake changes... just added intermittent fasting daily... lots of h2o!
