In this episode, Tim talks with the father of the Soleus Pushup, Dr. Marc Hamiltion. This is the miracle movement (and the miracle muscle) that can change your life - it can help you combat, if not prevent, metabolic syndrome.

The videos and website are resources to provide expert commentary about not only what is specifically discussed in this podcast, but much more. You will find trustworthy instructional information about how, why, and when to do this type of muscular activity called the Soleus Push-Up. These resources are being developed by members of Dr. Hamilton's laboratory, who are the only scientific experts that have developed the Soleus Push-Up. Therefore, it is designed to help provide you with the most trustworthy and accurate information possible.
I appreciate your questions AND that you allow him to talk! He is so excited about what they're discovering and has so much to say on this fascinating topic that it's a joy to hear. Even the bits I don't quite understand. My motto is: Sit = SPU. Don't worry about when or for how long or what it's doing - just do it when you sit - no cogitating required! Minimalism at its simplest. The hardest part is remembering to do it long enough for it to becomes a habit. Once it's a habit - you're golden!
Right on!
A revelatory BodCast! Please show on your TH-cam channel, though, exactly how to do the SPU!
Thanks, this is very interesting, as with many things I learn from your channel I will be adding this to my tool box.
Glad it was helpful!
Sounds like a small activity that's a Big Reset. He got my attention when he said that if you want to live to be 80 or 90, it would be good to have an activity that's "doable" that protects metabolism. Very provocative! Thanks!
That is a great point! Thank you for highlighting that comment!
@@OriginalStrengthSystem You're welcome -- but I should have said 'thought-provoking,' not provocative; there was nothing 'provocative' in what he said.
Absolutely fabulous and I have passed it onto my famly, and others who are in desperate need of this simple method. Thank you so much
Thank you Gents. Great talk, and exceptional learning.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Revolutionary, even if it works partially. If it works 100%, then an absolute revolution...
Thanks Tim.
I see your sponsor has up their game. Lam (of the Way of ... book series) refers to the "calf" as the second heart.
Great interview
This is amazing information
It really is
So good 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🙏🙏🙏
If this exercise works better than other exercises for lowering glucose and insulin, they why wouldn't we want to prioritize this exercise over other forms of exercise?
The aim for other forms of exercise may be different than lowering insulin and glucose. The why matters I guess. However, you may be able to find the answer to your question by prioritizing this for 30 days and evaluating/measuring how you do. It could be a worthwhile experiment
I had no idea, thanks!
Nor did i! But it is pretty cool!
@@OriginalStrengthSystem Thanks for sharing!
Great Bodcast Tim 👍.
Any chance of getting Doctor Otto Octavius (Dr Octopus) on the show, been doing some research on 'mechanical tentacles'...😉
Been wondering if these 'soleus push ups' , could be performed with a load on the legs? Such as a weight plate/barbell/sandbag etc on the thighs to get more muscle activation? 💪
I was thinking that myself until I looked at the website
I think it could be done, but I’m not sure it would be helpful. Your question makes me wonder if they’ve tried it in his lab.
@@OriginalStrengthSystem don't think that would be consistent with what they're trying to do since all they're looking to do was activate the muscle and not to strengthen it
it’s part of my exercise routine to load it with weight on my lap and use a slant board to get more depth of the movement
Would this be a good exercise to repair a torn Achilles (repaired) tendon?
It probably wont hurt or hinder the Achilles and it will likely bring healing nutrients to the area. It’s also gentle movement-healing in itself.
@@OriginalStrengthSystem thank you !
I wonder if using a standing desk for work all day would solve all these issues.
Not if they are standing statically. Movement is the key to most locks.
@@OriginalStrengthSystemYeah I'm not sure I fully get it. I'll check his site for more info. Maybe you are correct but I can't see why a muscle contracting isometrically or dynamically would make any difference on one's metabolism. If I held a 300lb bar on my shoulders while standing my metabolism would go through the roof and I'd be tired. It would go up higher if I moved for sure, but ... anyway. Thanks for the reply and the guest!
how often or reps/time limit do you do this every day? or just do like 25 reps every time you get up and sit down or something?
I don’t get the sense that there is a rep or time limit. I think it’s a do it while you sit thing or do it when you remember to while you sit thing. I like your 25 reps approach. That is a way to introduce and build the habit and consistency. And that is the secret!
The study they did was doing it for 270 minutes continuously meaning 4 hours and a half without stopping but that’s when you want to lose weight or if you are diabetic and want to control the sugar in your blood stream. If you just want to maintain metabolic rate i believe you can do it for an hour give or take or possibly you can do the full 4.5 hours intermittently. For me personally i have a desk job that requires me to sit 8 hours at a desk so it’s perfect. I don’t mind doing it for 4.5 hours straight because all i am doing is just sitting and i do hit the gym but my muscles do get tired eventually and i have time restrictions with my other things i have to fit into my day. This soleus push ups does not get me tired at all and i can do it while i am glued to my desk. Maybe just a tiny bit bored but when i think of the results it’s so easy to keep going
@@OriginalStrengthSystemThe 25 rep thing sounds double. I would like to know if say 5 or 10 minutes..maybe switching alternate legs would make a difference to blood sugar levels in the blood. I think people need reminders, say when your watching TV and the adverts come on, you could do SPU’s then. I can’t imagine doing it continuously for hours, even if it isn’t exhausting.
Sorry, I just noticed at the 53 minute time line on the video, the doctor explained about every time you said down you could try to do the SPU for 2 minutes. I thought up till then you had to do it continuously every time you sat down. I get it about , once you start you are more likely to carry on longer..but good to commit to 2 minutes. I think this is the message that needs to be emphasised.
On Bodcast 'Franklin Method' #162. At ⏲️59.28.
He demonstrated Diaphragm-Trampolining (calf raises) , which seem like a standing version of the Soleus push ups'? ????
So the trampolining is excellent for many different reasons, but it would not be the standing version of the Soleus Pushup. Though I do LOVE the movement you’re speaking of. The sitting SPU isolates the Soleus, the only muscle that seems to be able to work forever without fatigue. The trampolining would work several of the muscles in the lower legs.
