V shred is just the pretty face of an mega corporation that sells a lot of bs on internet. He simply goes there, read the script and gets the money. He's a model, not a trainer. Perhaps it would be very productive to talk about the company that owns him
As someone who began training a week ago, I'm happy I found this channel two weeks ago 😂😂 I've been binging these videos before and after my workouts😂❤
Damn I wish I had found you when my body was young enough and unbroken enough for body building, but those days are behind me and I find the rubber bands the physical therapists' make me use to rebuild the broken shit are my gym. Love your videos, I am not a Scientist/Doctor but I have my "Street PHD" in sales and marketing, and although retired I still love to watch how marketing evolves, especially the use of "Sales Funnels" to capture a larger portion of the gullible or retarded. Your breakdown's of V-Shit are world class ass smackery, yet still impart important knowledge.
Nothing makes me want to punch a wall more than hearing the first 30 seconds of a Vshred commercial that I can’t skip. “I’m going to jump in this pool” Exchange pool for traffic and now we’re getting somewhere
If Vshred slapped "science based" on his videos and then referenced a handful of poorly done studies he'd be a REAL TH-cam influencer instead of just a wooden boy.
Yeah exactly 90% of the studies are bs anyways, people think that whoever is running them actually cares about you and isn’t totally doing it for their own career and financial interest 99.999% of the time. “Oh but ma white coat and piece of paper”
I'm grateful for channels like this, which debunk bad advice and give useful, informative training guidance. I'm 3 years into lifting and nearly 35 (let's be honest - time isn't on my side for my prime years) and I don't have time to waste on bad advice which won't help me progress
I trained a guy who walked into my gym at the age of 67. He never worked out before (he’s a librarian). I won’t bore you with all his lifts, but he’s very fit by all measures except flexibility (that’s taking longer). 35 is young my friend
Man I remember I fell for the v shred program too. I think I bought at least 10 or more of the pepper extract pills and some other garbage. Didn’t do anything for me. I ended up counting calories and lost 45lbs in a year and kept it off for the last two years.
I’m happy that I came across this. I did fall for their bs. If I may share, about 13 years ago I weighed 203 (and I’m 5’0”) I started on the weight loss journey. I ate 4 healthy meals a day, going to the gym 5-7 days a week, I did light weights with as many reps as I could stand and cardio. I lost 84 lbs, though it took 3 years. I have gained 20 back and idk what made me think to turn to VShred to lose that weight. I keep losing and gaining back. Irritates me that I didn’t do what I was doing before that actually helped me. Thank you for your videos.
Hey! It's worth noting that we all go through some fluctuations in weight, we all go through periods in which one or another part of our life takes a backseat due to stress, changing priorities, etc. I myself am getting back into the swing of things after having a kid and having more than a couple of fitness derailing injuries, so I believe i know what you're going through. Know that you CAN do this. Believe in yourself, and put in the work and you'll get there. It's also worth saying that just because working out a certain way worked for you before doesn't mean it's going to work the same way this time- not because the science is any different, but because you may not have passion for the same type of exercise. Maybe you can find a type of exercise that suits your personality more in this phase of your life, to be a focal point a couple days a week, and lifting can be geared towards that. Some people find that starting a new sport or hobby (rock climbing, dance, rowing, fencing, Brazilian jiu jitsu, yoga) can help them focus their workouts and gain new motivation and momentum. Good luck to ya! Edit: some spelling and punctuation
@@coolestgyever531 thank you so much 😊 And good luck to you and your wellness journey! I’d love to do something other than going to the gym. Just feels like I never have time anymore. Like I love to hike but I live in a city where trails seem few and far between. Idk maybe I’m making excuses, but good advice to explore different ways to keep fit 😊
Mike, you slew me lol😂 with this vid. I’ve rediscovered your content recently and it’s been addictive. Love your sense of humor, as I’m also a fellow member of the tribe. Keep it up!!
Dear Dr. Mike --- I simply want to thank you for the entertainment! Love your humour and take on the whole thing, I literally heard my metabolism speeding up as I drank 2 sips of water... On a more serious note: I also want to thank you for inspiring us to have better self-discipline, exercise more, eat healthier, and lose a lot of extra weight we were carrying around. You have contributed so much to our lives in the past few months. Thank YOU! Happy New Year and wishing you and the RP team all the best!!
You sir are hysterical. Thank you for bringing a needed punch in the face needed by an unchecked influencer world! Oh yeah your RP diet app is pretty friggin great too. I've used it since it was an email spreadsheet. My gym suggests the RP app for all clients looking to self correct their nutrition. If you're ever in Florida and plan a seminar I would love to host you. Bring Scott he's welcome too!
A new personal trainer and group fitness instructor, I was looking for some good channels to help me improve my knowledge (without always looking in a boring text book, I do that enough) and explain through the bullshi9t I hear day in and day out at the gym. SO many “experts” out there. I LOVE YOUR HUMOR MIXED WITH SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE!! Only 10 minutes in and I had to subscribe.
@@HomelessShoe That's the whole point. He's a predatory grifter. To OP's point; It's really sad people fall for his grift though. He's preying on people's ignorance, but also he knows he can get money out of people who hope he will give them some magic secret that doesn't include "exercise more and eat less garbage food."
@@kingrix Sounds like he has a lot in common with the big pharma. Both love to earn money at cost of someone's well-being and neither do they genuine like to help as it means losing potential customers for their products. The rotten side of humanity at finest. Shame on them.
I ALMOST bought his program in a moment of desperation. I feel stupid saying this now, but I thought he was the only one that knew why I wasn't losing weight like 2 years ago. I had a hormonal disorder and I'm an emotional eater. I was vulnerable and I almost spent my money on him. Luckily I found support. There's NO WAY to lose weight without being in a caloric deficit. I was eating healthy, but way too much. I was exercising, but not as often, not as heavy. Consistency is key.
You'd think they'd realize it's bullshit when the tips about loosing weight or "fixing their metabolism" is things like sleep and drink water (and take a free trip down monetization lane) but I guess not o.O
the "they can eat much food at once" part is so true, I came across so many women saying "they eat much more than grown men", and then I find out they just skip every meal for an entire day prior to that. Yeah, if the grown man you're talking about fasted for a day, he would eat more than usual as well
iwas insanely skinny growing up because i would just eat one dinner for the day...i force eat throughout now cuz i train 2 hours a day and now am lean but extremely muscular for a natural
The v shred guy really hit hard, I had never heard someone talking about weight loss and such that made so much sense to me at the time, he gave me a lot of hope that maybe he could help me in my journey. Then I find out he’s just selling diet pills .. made me mad tbh. It sucks when someone gives u false hope. I have found out I have some thyroid issues that have caused weight gains so I’m working my way thru that and to get fit again. I’m glad this video exists .. thanks
Thank you for the information. I almost got suckered into this. I had seen a commercial Dr Drew and his wife put out, promoting this V shred guy. The sad thing is having a reputable person like Dr drew, is what made me start to investigate the shred and then I found you. I'm wondering if you know anything about Meredith Svelte Crew, and her 7-minute workout regimen? I'd love to see you do something on that as well brother. Thank you so much for all your information and help.
I also get these ads. Thankfully I looked into Meredith Shirk and realized very quickly that she is an upsell program queen. If something sounds too good to be true…
As a bean pole whome could eat carbs and garbage allllll day, and weight 150 at 6’2” (and i did eat allll day) I was like a hummingbird. I pace everywhere, i walk insanely fast, im always fidgeting, my hands are always doing something, i rarely sit Next time you notice someone whom is built like that, notice how much they move
Gotta give him credit that he ignores every hate, every negativity and just plows on through. He is earning much money and nobody is able to stop him, because he is very good looking and he uses fancy words. Tells a little something about the average IQ in the world doesn't it.
Some people can eat whatever they want simply because they only want to eat like 1,200 calories a day and so you can look like you're stuffing yourself until you're sick three meals a day and it's barely 2,200 calories. I used to have to literally force feed myself because I had no appetite and also couldn't sit still longer than about fifteen minutes. Id burn on average like 2,500 - 3,200 calories a day depending on how active I was and yet I'd get sick eating more than maybe 1,800 calories. Had to literally get told by a doctor to just drink soda or something so I'd stop losing weight. Turned out I was testosterone deficient to the pointmy 18 year old ass was probably less roided up than my menopausal grandma.
The first part about not seeing these people, and what they eat all day long totally rings true with me. I can eat a rather large meal like the whole thing plus dessert and even some extra but then the rest of the day I’ll have like a bowl of oatmeal in the morning, one thing of Greek yogurt maybe a protein shake. Sometimes for breakfast I’ll have like two scrambled eggs and a slice of toast but if you saw me at a restaurant you would think how the hell do I stay relatively slim and still be able to eat so much.
I did “fixed” my metabolism. Basically, I have pre diabetes, and I found that the holy grail of eating food without gaining weight without having to starve myself is to stay clear of sugar, doing fasting and eating lots of protein to curve sugar cravings
I'm thankful these videos exist now. I remember years ago being appalled at my friend for buying his program when I knew of so much valuable information online (which takes work). To my friend a fit guy was a fit guy and he couldn't tell the difference. He bought before I could stop him and there wasn't resources outside of "believe me bro" to show it's all a scam. Putting the sleezy marketing, stealing content, and everything else aside, my friend's experience was complete trash. He is a super skinny by nature type and needs to focus on small meals with deceptively high calories to bulk and the "custom built" diet and exercise program based on his body quiz was the same copy/paste garbage they give everyone. Low calorie and fat style with a standard workout. Every meal was lean chicken, broccoli, and rice. The exact opposite for his actually body type.
I'm ashamed to say I fell for it a few years back. It seemed to be advertised constantly and I'd ignored it for ages but in the early hours one evening during lockdown I got brainwashed and curious (just like shopping channels that we can resist until bored, overtired and under-stimulated). You're so right, the diet advice is cookie cutter one size for all.
O and want to speed up your metabolism? Get the eff up and move, walk the dog, walk yourself, put those headphones on, play some up tempo music and move
As someone who actually has a slow metabolism due to other health conditions, my biggest challenge was learning to listen to my body and understand my hunger cues. I had to unlearn the habits of a lifetime of eating because it's arbitrary meal times (I wouldn't have ever told my mum I wasn't hungry!). I now only eat 2 meals a day with maybe a snack if I need it x
The only reason a person would have a "slow metabolism" is inactivity and low muscle mass. If you are obese, guaranteed, you have a high metabolism. Extra tissue has to be kept alive.
I haven’t laughed like this since the old school Hodge Twins gym videos 😂 Doctor Mike you are hilarious and getting better! Glad I subscribed this last month.
Ever go to gnc, the workers look professional and speak well except for one factor, if you ask them any questions were the answer is not read off the supplement container you will realize they dont know shit about what they are selling you, just like vshred
The humor in your videos is really critical; I share these videos and know people will be more likely to watch and retain the information, if I can promise entertainment in the process. Congratulations on over 1 mil subscribers, well earned. This channel has taught me so much.
Just got broken up with on Christmas by someone who had me believing we’d be married. Thank god you’re still putting out quality content to keep me the tiniest bit distracted and sane.
In My experience hes right about heavy weights increasing motabolism. Most people dont lift correctly but when you do your muscles chew up energy repairing when your not training.
I also get the feeling that the people who consume VShred's content will look at tip number one and eat "proteins" like nuts and nut butter (why anyone ever said these were good sources of protein is beyond me) and the slew of new patent "high protein" product you find at the supermarket that actually contain a ridiculous low protein/calorie ratio. God this is frustrating, and I feel bad for these people.
@@johnnamkeh1290 if I'm looking for e E.g. a protein bar or a prepackaged shake after a workout, my rule of thumb is maximum 10 calories per gram of protein.
Mike , you good sir, are a treasure. I am glad you found your way through life and now project your wisdom into a camera so that many people worldwide (myself included) can enjoy your well established knowledge and wisdom. You have my respect. And I grant that not so easily. Regards, Ray

Seem like he jealous weight is hereditary and metabolism I eat 1time a day stable meal and drink water and I was still fat so I think all yall crazy but I did use to drink alcohol so I know it have sugar and starches inside them but you have to make it make sense but I know I need to fix my gut health also but all yall full of shit to me yall take too much out your diet then you don’t take enough out so I eat out the basic 4 food groups I walk and I eat small portions in moderation and still 1 meal so I take oyzempic so whatever

@@kristianbasile7141 because not everybody comes into this kind of space informed in advance
Lol you bought 3 Bugatti because you wanted a good sampling!
3:03 Noticed her chest size remained about the same, even after massive weight loss. ‘Cause that’s how weight loss works.
That one kinda depends. Some girls do gain fat in the boobs, but some girls just have gigantic boobs naturally even while slim.
@@demonintellect9834 regardless of your boob size, they shrink if you lose lots of weight
lol I noticed that too
@@demonintellect9834 you loose a little even if you are like me and mostly gain and lose around your belly. If you get skinny ENOUGH, you always lose boob, but that can be very unhealthily skinny, like a woman who is on any bodybuilding stage. (Their boobs are all 100% fake.)
Most don't just have massive boobs. It's a bit unusual.@demonintellect9834
V shred is just the pretty face of an mega corporation that sells a lot of bs on internet. He simply goes there, read the script and gets the money. He's a model, not a trainer. Perhaps it would be very productive to talk about the company that owns him
Some day I expect "v Corp" to end up on coffeezilla
He is 100% complicit
Proof? I’m interested in this theory
@@1TieDye1
Complicit, yes but It doesn't appear to be the case, that he is the "brains" behind it. In fact, it seems impossible.
@@haydenmammen6079it’s not a theory, he doesn’t own v-shred, he works for them.
As someone who began training a week ago, I'm happy I found this channel two weeks ago 😂😂
I've been binging these videos before and after my workouts😂❤
Jesus, your sarcastic humor is the best thing I've found in a while.
Im glad I came here.
That's what she said
god no. he's so unfunny.
I’m also glad you came
@@dave4148No way you also came?
Love me some Dr. Mike.
Gotta always respect the absolutely seamless RP plug 😂
Shameless but seamless
That was buttery smooth
It made me laugh my ass off tbh, it was so good
Damn I wish I had found you when my body was young enough and unbroken enough for body building, but those days are behind me and I find the rubber bands the physical therapists' make me use to rebuild the broken shit are my gym.
Love your videos, I am not a Scientist/Doctor but I have my "Street PHD" in sales and marketing, and although retired I still love to watch how marketing evolves, especially the use of "Sales Funnels" to capture a larger portion of the gullible or retarded. Your breakdown's of V-Shit are world class ass smackery, yet still impart important knowledge.
Nothing makes me want to punch a wall more than hearing the first 30 seconds of a Vshred commercial that I can’t skip.
“I’m going to jump in this pool”
Exchange pool for traffic and now we’re getting somewhere
Man, I hate that. Every time, I think “jumping into a pool is the worst you could come up with?” I like jumping in pools, not sure about anyone else.
😂😂😂😂😂
may I suggest joining the cult of uBlock Origin? No more VShred unless you go looking for it
ublock origin is your friend
😂😂😂😂😂👌🏻🇬🇧
If Vshred slapped "science based" on his videos and then referenced a handful of poorly done studies he'd be a REAL TH-cam influencer instead of just a wooden boy.
Yeah exactly 90% of the studies are bs anyways, people think that whoever is running them actually cares about you and isn’t totally doing it for their own career and financial interest 99.999% of the time. “Oh but ma white coat and piece of paper”
I can't believe he still hasn't done that yet. That's like fitness algo gold.
Ignorance speaking here, but I think the only way to become fit is hard, work and good diet
I'm grateful for channels like this, which debunk bad advice and give useful, informative training guidance. I'm 3 years into lifting and nearly 35 (let's be honest - time isn't on my side for my prime years) and I don't have time to waste on bad advice which won't help me progress
The 10th minute description and satire were perfect
As we would say, mwuah, beautiful, benissimo
I trained a guy who walked into my gym at the age of 67. He never worked out before (he’s a librarian). I won’t bore you with all his lifts, but he’s very fit by all measures except flexibility (that’s taking longer). 35 is young my friend
Hey, just because I'm a lizard person doesn't mean I'll never gain weight 😂😂
So funny I flicked my tongue.
Crocodiles turn food into body mass very well.
Tip 6, don't eat yellow snow
Man I remember I fell for the v shred program too. I think I bought at least 10 or more of the pepper extract pills and some other garbage. Didn’t do anything for me. I ended up counting calories and lost 45lbs in a year and kept it off for the last two years.
They actually sent you something? 😂 I got assurances they sent it and fake tracking numbers that never activated
I’m embarrassed to say I bought the “BURN” pills . Did NOTHING. 💀
I’m happy that I came across this. I did fall for their bs.
If I may share, about 13 years ago I weighed 203 (and I’m 5’0”) I started on the weight loss journey. I ate 4 healthy meals a day, going to the gym 5-7 days a week, I did light weights with as many reps as I could stand and cardio. I lost 84 lbs, though it took 3 years. I have gained 20 back and idk what made me think to turn to VShred to lose that weight.
I keep losing and gaining back.
Irritates me that I didn’t do what I was doing before that actually helped me.
Thank you for your videos.
Hey! It's worth noting that we all go through some fluctuations in weight, we all go through periods in which one or another part of our life takes a backseat due to stress, changing priorities, etc. I myself am getting back into the swing of things after having a kid and having more than a couple of fitness derailing injuries, so I believe i know what you're going through. Know that you CAN do this. Believe in yourself, and put in the work and you'll get there. It's also worth saying that just because working out a certain way worked for you before doesn't mean it's going to work the same way this time- not because the science is any different, but because you may not have passion for the same type of exercise. Maybe you can find a type of exercise that suits your personality more in this phase of your life, to be a focal point a couple days a week, and lifting can be geared towards that. Some people find that starting a new sport or hobby (rock climbing, dance, rowing, fencing, Brazilian jiu jitsu, yoga) can help them focus their workouts and gain new motivation and momentum. Good luck to ya!
Edit: some spelling and punctuation
Great work missy just keep working at it you look great stay every journey starts with a step And I'm glad yours was successful ;)
@@coolestgyever531 thank you so much 😊 And good luck to you and your wellness journey! I’d love to do something other than going to the gym. Just feels like I never have time anymore. Like I love to hike but I live in a city where trails seem few and far between. Idk maybe I’m making excuses, but good advice to explore different ways to keep fit 😊
@@matts3870 Thank you so much 🥹🥹
@@coolestgyever531great advice man
Mike, you slew me lol😂 with this vid. I’ve rediscovered your content recently and it’s been addictive. Love your sense of humor, as I’m also a fellow member of the tribe. Keep it up!!
You’ve been slewn!
BRO JUST take a gram of tren and all will work good)
is that you in your pfp bro?
Dear Dr. Mike ---
I simply want to thank you for the entertainment! Love your humour and take on the whole thing, I literally heard my metabolism speeding up as I drank 2 sips of water...
On a more serious note: I also want to thank you for inspiring us to have better self-discipline, exercise more, eat healthier, and lose a lot of extra weight we were carrying around. You have contributed so much to our lives in the past few months. Thank YOU!
Happy New Year and wishing you and the RP team all the best!!
Congratulations!! I found his channel a couple says ago and I'm completely hooked.
3:14 idk cortana kinda bad tho
This wasn’t a review - it was a roast fest and I’m here for it 😂
Should have called that shadow under his nose out... Gives him a distinctive looking mustache. 🥸
Came for the science. Stayed for the humor. Love this man
The brilliance of this video is I had a v shred advert come up whilst watching this video. Amazing
You sir are hysterical. Thank you for bringing a needed punch in the face needed by an unchecked influencer world! Oh yeah your RP diet app is pretty friggin great too. I've used it since it was an email spreadsheet. My gym suggests the RP app for all clients looking to self correct their nutrition. If you're ever in Florida and plan a seminar I would love to host you. Bring Scott he's welcome too!
Bro that plug for the RP app got me good 😂 great timing
I been binge watching these reaction videos shits so funny
Bro i'm dead, a v shred advert actually played in the middle of the video 😂
Vshred's brain isn't slow, it's broken.
A new personal trainer and group fitness instructor, I was looking for some good channels to help me improve my knowledge (without always looking in a boring text book, I do that enough) and explain through the bullshi9t I hear day in and day out at the gym. SO many “experts” out there. I LOVE YOUR HUMOR MIXED WITH SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE!! Only 10 minutes in and I had to subscribe.
People who know how things actually work are not the people buying his program.
And he might deep down know this, but rather exploit their ignorance.
@@HomelessShoe That's the whole point. He's a predatory grifter.
To OP's point; It's really sad people fall for his grift though. He's preying on people's ignorance, but also he knows he can get money out of people who hope he will give them some magic secret that doesn't include "exercise more and eat less garbage food."
@@kingrix Sounds like he has a lot in common with the big pharma. Both love to earn money at cost of someone's well-being and neither do they genuine like to help as it means losing potential customers for their products.
The rotten side of humanity at finest. Shame on them.
I ALMOST bought his program in a moment of desperation. I feel stupid saying this now, but I thought he was the only one that knew why I wasn't losing weight like 2 years ago. I had a hormonal disorder and I'm an emotional eater. I was vulnerable and I almost spent my money on him. Luckily I found support. There's NO WAY to lose weight without being in a caloric deficit. I was eating healthy, but way too much. I was exercising, but not as often, not as heavy. Consistency is key.
You'd think they'd realize it's bullshit when the tips about loosing weight or "fixing their metabolism" is things like sleep and drink water (and take a free trip down monetization lane) but I guess not o.O
the "they can eat much food at once" part is so true, I came across so many women saying "they eat much more than grown men", and then I find out they just skip every meal for an entire day prior to that. Yeah, if the grown man you're talking about fasted for a day, he would eat more than usual as well
iwas insanely skinny growing up because i would just eat one dinner for the day...i force eat throughout now cuz i train 2 hours a day and now am lean but extremely muscular for a natural
So glad I found this video. Your sense of humor is fantastic!
I just have to say I am genuinely so happy I found your channel. People probably think I’m crazy laughing to myself on the treadmill
W😂
Na we got your back 😂
So you're one of the 1.5 females that doctor Mike says watches his channel. Nice to finally meet you!
If you’re on a treadmill, you haven’t learned much
I was cooling down after a strength workout but okay lol@@hrdkorebp
Who else got the V shredded ad on this video?
You can't just do that you have to actually rate them
This is comedy gold!🤝👏
Dr. Мишаня, you’ve done it again!
As of commenting this, doctor drew is now a paid by Vshred to pedal his nonsense. Honestly the most disappointing.
A broken metabolism? Like pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency or some glycogen storage disease? Lol.
lifting heavy weights dont build muscles get it? guy
heavy lifting it doesn't work in the real world get it broski?
Just discovered this channel a few days ago. Binging like whoa, such great stuff!
Welcome to the dark side 😈
Definitely one of the best
May your life be full of massive muscles, Bugattis, and laughter
I'll take some of that prayer too, amen, @@evank3
Same!
The v shred guy really hit hard, I had never heard someone talking about weight loss and such that made so much sense to me at the time, he gave me a lot of hope that maybe he could help me in my journey. Then I find out he’s just selling diet pills .. made me mad tbh. It sucks when someone gives u false hope. I have found out I have some thyroid issues that have caused weight gains so I’m working my way thru that and to get fit again. I’m glad this video exists .. thanks
Dr Mike…your videos are GOLD! I’m turning 56 tomorrow, not thrilled about it, and you made me laugh my ass off! Thanks!
Like my father-in-law always says, getting older is better than the alternative!
@@brittanyg6796 Very true! I should be grateful I guess. Thanks for the reminder
@@sharinitzsche5554growing older is a luxury that most can’t afford. Appreciate it dude.
Thank you for the information. I almost got suckered into this. I had seen a commercial Dr Drew and his wife put out, promoting this V shred guy.
The sad thing is having a reputable person like Dr drew, is what made me start to investigate the shred and then I found you.
I'm wondering if you know anything about Meredith Svelte Crew, and her 7-minute workout regimen? I'd love to see you do something on that as well brother. Thank you so much for all your information and help.
unfortunately Dr. Drew isn’t reputable anymore. it’s been sad to see over the last few years
I also get these ads. Thankfully I looked into Meredith Shirk and realized very quickly that she is an upsell program queen. If something sounds too good to be true…
As a bean pole whome could eat carbs and garbage allllll day, and weight 150 at 6’2” (and i did eat allll day)
I was like a hummingbird. I pace everywhere, i walk insanely fast, im always fidgeting, my hands are always doing something, i rarely sit
Next time you notice someone whom is built like that, notice how much they move
I aspire to be reincarnated as the invisible speck of dust that Dr. Mike gently removes from the laptop whenever he reacts to something
Oh my god 😭 I hadn’t noticed and was near the end of the video and thought “I probably missed it”.. nope 😂 he’s still doing it. That’s too funny.
Gotta give him credit that he ignores every hate, every negativity and just plows on through. He is earning much money and nobody is able to stop him, because he is very good looking and he uses fancy words. Tells a little something about the average IQ in the world doesn't it.
True lol even tho it's a scummy way to make your millions he did it and clearly doesn't give af
If I got paid good enough , I would be V Shred
I'm pretty sure he's just a model hired to be a spokesman so the income increase doesn't benefit him directly all that much.
ANY problem can be solved by taking vshreds body type quiz...
Some people can eat whatever they want simply because they only want to eat like 1,200 calories a day and so you can look like you're stuffing yourself until you're sick three meals a day and it's barely 2,200 calories.
I used to have to literally force feed myself because I had no appetite and also couldn't sit still longer than about fifteen minutes. Id burn on average like 2,500 - 3,200 calories a day depending on how active I was and yet I'd get sick eating more than maybe 1,800 calories. Had to literally get told by a doctor to just drink soda or something so I'd stop losing weight.
Turned out I was testosterone deficient to the pointmy 18 year old ass was probably less roided up than my menopausal grandma.
The first part about not seeing these people, and what they eat all day long totally rings true with me. I can eat a rather large meal like the whole thing plus dessert and even some extra but then the rest of the day I’ll have like a bowl of oatmeal in the morning, one thing of Greek yogurt maybe a protein shake. Sometimes for breakfast I’ll have like two scrambled eggs and a slice of toast but if you saw me at a restaurant you would think how the hell do I stay relatively slim and still be able to eat so much.
I did “fixed” my metabolism. Basically, I have pre diabetes, and I found that the holy grail of eating food without gaining weight without having to starve myself is to stay clear of sugar, doing fasting and eating lots of protein to curve sugar cravings
Yeah also eating lots of healthy food and your body isn't badgering you to feed it again cause it has all the things.
Dr Mike, will you be courageous enough to take on an Athletics Greens video covering their dubious health claims?
Love you Dr Mike
second this, i see too many gym girls questionably promote it
Yes! Getting tired of those ads!
The editing skill are getting better and better each video I admire the editor :D
😎🤝
@@MaxStrazny well done !
facts
TH-cam just put the Vshred commercial at the beginning of your video.
Clicked on this video and got an v shred ad before it started, impeccable
It's the "no shame at all" business model that vshred does so well
😆 me too. The irony...
I'm thankful these videos exist now. I remember years ago being appalled at my friend for buying his program when I knew of so much valuable information online (which takes work). To my friend a fit guy was a fit guy and he couldn't tell the difference. He bought before I could stop him and there wasn't resources outside of "believe me bro" to show it's all a scam.
Putting the sleezy marketing, stealing content, and everything else aside, my friend's experience was complete trash.
He is a super skinny by nature type and needs to focus on small meals with deceptively high calories to bulk and the "custom built" diet and exercise program based on his body quiz was the same copy/paste garbage they give everyone. Low calorie and fat style with a standard workout. Every meal was lean chicken, broccoli, and rice. The exact opposite for his actually body type.
I'm ashamed to say I fell for it a few years back. It seemed to be advertised constantly and I'd ignored it for ages but in the early hours one evening during lockdown I got brainwashed and curious (just like shopping channels that we can resist until bored, overtired and under-stimulated). You're so right, the diet advice is cookie cutter one size for all.
Eat a sandwich late at night while playing on ur computer to burn calories!! Best workout plan ever!!! I can do this one!! 😂
It’s hilarious because the advertisement at the beginning of the video is Dr Drew for Vshred!!! 👍😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
O and want to speed up your metabolism? Get the eff up and move, walk the dog, walk yourself, put those headphones on, play some up tempo music and move
This was the 1st V-Shred video I was able to sit thru without wanting to punch my screen .... Thanks Dr. Mike!
As someone who actually has a slow metabolism due to other health conditions, my biggest challenge was learning to listen to my body and understand my hunger cues. I had to unlearn the habits of a lifetime of eating because it's arbitrary meal times (I wouldn't have ever told my mum I wasn't hungry!). I now only eat 2 meals a day with maybe a snack if I need it x
The only reason a person would have a "slow metabolism" is inactivity and low muscle mass. If you are obese, guaranteed, you have a high metabolism. Extra tissue has to be kept alive.
@@toomanymarys7355 It's called a thyroid dude, look it up x
I haven’t laughed like this since the old school Hodge Twins gym videos 😂
Doctor Mike you are hilarious and getting better!
Glad I subscribed this last month.
V-shred has such 'hit-me' face. Oh how I wish I could.
With a home run bat swing.
Ever go to gnc, the workers look professional and speak well except for one factor, if you ask them any questions were the answer is not read off the supplement container you will realize they dont know shit about what they are selling you, just like vshred
The humor in your videos is really critical; I share these videos and know people will be more likely to watch and retain the information, if I can promise entertainment in the process.
Congratulations on over 1 mil subscribers, well earned. This channel has taught me so much.
Just got broken up with on Christmas by someone who had me believing we’d be married. Thank god you’re still putting out quality content to keep me the tiniest bit distracted and sane.
Try the free vshit I mean vshred assessment, it probably didn't work out because of your broken metabolism 😂
14:10 😂😂😂 best ad plug ever 😂😂😂
In My experience hes right about heavy weights increasing motabolism. Most people dont lift correctly but when you do your muscles chew up energy repairing when your not training.
First time watcher here. Impressive ingenuity and humor coupled with pleasent manner of speaking and inflection. Top notch!
😂😂😂 I just discovered Mike and I swear his humor gets me hollering at my phone
Just found your channel yesterday and have been watching them all 😂 🎉 love you! Youre definitely pumping me up to workout harder!
I clicked so fast when I saw a picture of Dr. Mike and V shred on the same thumbnail. 😂
Congrats on 1 million subs! Love your channel.
I block this guys pages, ads, I report him and his crap still pops up. It’s so annoying!!!
I also get the feeling that the people who consume VShred's content will look at tip number one and eat "proteins" like nuts and nut butter (why anyone ever said these were good sources of protein is beyond me) and the slew of new patent "high protein" product you find at the supermarket that actually contain a ridiculous low protein/calorie ratio. God this is frustrating, and I feel bad for these people.
Just out of interest, what protein/calorie ratio would you consider to be actually worth it?
@@johnnamkeh1290 if I'm looking for e
E.g. a protein bar or a prepackaged shake after a workout, my rule of thumb is maximum 10 calories per gram of protein.
these ad transitions are getting slicker and funnier
Lol while watching this I get interrupted with vshred advertisements....
Oh my GOD this is my new favorite series on the internet. Dr Mikes commentary on the stock videos was amazing. PLEASE make more of this shit hahaha
I tripped over my meal last night and broke my metabolism. V-shred had the one solution to fix me.
Congrats on a million RP, was only a matter of time. Consistently informative and entertaining without all the bs, thanks guys
Dr. Mike, your humor and sarcasm are the greatest!
Yall have to realize everyone body is different what yall request don’t work for everyone
Mike , you good sir, are a treasure. I am glad you found your way through life and now project your wisdom into a camera so that many people worldwide (myself included) can enjoy your well established knowledge and wisdom. You have my respect. And I grant that not so easily.

I'm out here changing the rear brakes to my car while trying to listen how I can shred 70 pounds. Now you got me singing, " I can show you the world." Great show👍
Seem like he jealous weight is hereditary and metabolism
I eat 1time a day stable meal and drink water and I was still fat so I think all yall crazy but I did use to drink alcohol so I know it have sugar and starches inside them but you have to make it make sense but I know I need to fix my gut health also but all yall full of shit to me yall take too much out your diet then you don’t take enough out so I eat out the basic 4 food groups I walk and I eat small portions in moderation and still 1 meal so I take oyzempic so whatever
