  • The Importance of What We Do: What any person does for themselves when they train - the benefits of strength training to our physiologic 401K. What we do for our clients across different populations. What we do for the greater community - the compression of morbidity.
    Dr. Sullivan's article, Barbell Training is Big Medicine, is available through Starting Strength at startingstrength.com/index.php...

    Whenever I'm unhappy about my progress under the bar, I always give this talk a listen to and remember that all the time in the gym is about more than my heaviest single.
    Thanks for all you've done Dr. Bro Sullivan. I look forward to all your future work, even if you can't create as much material as the great windbag himself, Rip.

    So glad I found your TH-cam channel. I am currently enjoying reading "The Barbell Prescription". This lecture, (and the Greysteel channel) are a wonderful adjunct. Thank you.

    Dr Sullivan is a superb speaker, rational, very measured and I like his manner. He is one of the best advocates of the Starting Strength philosophy I have come across and I recommend this sort of presentation to friends of mine. I have done barbell training and it has and is changing my middle-aged life for the better.

    Thank you Dr. Sully. You are my inspiration to return to the gym and to life. Love love love your explanation of what good things happen as a result of strength training. I am 78 and in good shape. My son in-law has attended Cross Fit for 10 plus years, l think he will be pleased that l am starting strength training. God bless you and you are a God send for us.

    Strength exercise PROGRAMMING is the way to dosage the the human body.... and this is similar to what Rip said when teaching the squat, and deadlift technique, that if you do it correctly, though not necessarily PERFECTLY, the muscles have an amazing way to sort things out for themselves, you don't need to work each one in isolation, and each helps in the way it is supposed to, and in the right amount of it, in synergy with all other things being employed, bones tendons ligaments and endocrine needs... here Dr.S says this thing has a way to dosage itself with the right amount of hormonal and endocrine things needed and it is done by your own body in the right amounts automatically, naturally, and with proper programming you can adjust what is needed by manipulating the common training variables of stress, adaptation and recovery. "It can be more exquisitely tight rated (graded?) to the needs of the client than any other drug..." ---- perfect!! Amazing how the human body produces all it needs if it able to, and also if it HAS TO for adaptations to stress.
    So basically RESISTANCE Exercise as Medicine, A new type of Medicine Prescription instead of a pill to reduce stress, Exercise three to four times a week, that is the new prescription.
    And get ready for the Pharmacological industry's push back... it will try its best to discredit this with all its resources, its very existence depends on it. It will attempt to NUANCE this so much that it will be a MYSTERIOUS fog for the general population. The way they do it is by taking a "representative" case of some idiot doing this the wrong way and hurting himself or herself and using it as an example of why it needs to be nuanced to infinity and in that process their "medicines" are smuggled into peoples' lives, the way believers smuggle some jesus into all they speak about.

    The only thing that he’s wrong about are policy makers caring about those numbers. Most policy makers have gotten smart and now own those medical companies and receive big bucks from the government.

    This guy is so underrated! Unfortunately the Barbell Prescription is not yet available in german. Nevertheless bought it (by the way Is there a misspelling of his first Name in the end?! "Jonathan" vs "Jonathon"... on Amazon it is also spelled "Jonathon").

      Thanks for the kind words. My name is spelled "Jonathon," so it's right. :)

    He says, "The more you squirt growth hormone... but here's the real MONEY SHOT for me..."
    ---LOL
    I do that EVERY night with my woman, and I can do it, I think, thanks to strength training. And the more i learn to do that the more I like it. ---LOL
    ==============
    But seriously, this is a TREMENDOUS thing to know... we all have the perception that as you age, your ability to "squirt" growth hormone decreases EVEN IF you increase your ability to lift heavier weights, or "follow a Progressive Overload program", Linear Progression, thus the emphasis on recovery Rip keeps drumming aobut, and he is right, as soon as I started manipulating that aspect of it, my lifts improved a lot..
    So if I get this correctly, Dr. Sullivan is saying that, a YOUNG man's levels of growth hormone is LESS than an OLDER trainee's levels of GH if he is following a Progressive Overload Program?? Because it is trained like anything else to do so?
    So you become "better ABLE to" do so, but NOT able to produce MORE?? In other words, the response to produce it is trained, same quantity, but you do not produce MORE of it??
    This goes COMPLETELY against all empirical evidence, tough it might be true... I guess we conclude THAT because of EXTERNAL cues, like wrinkles and such, but the endocrine system might in fact be better for an older TRAINED male than a YOUNG trainee male??
    I know I am fifty and lift MORE, way more, than all younger 25 year old guys in my gym... so...
    I would love Dr. Sullivan's confirmation on this, did I understand this correctly??
