I base my workouts and recoveries on your videos here and the playlist you have with Huberman. Thank you so much for providing so much information and knowledge for free Dr. Galpin
Extremely well done episode. I enjoyed everything. I work in a lab where we do genotyping for Parkinson's disease and I love the way that you found to explain this complex world of genetics to the general public. ❤
Thank you for such in depth topics. Regarding genetics and sports performance, I would love to hear an episode on how certain traits (such as ACTN3) and optimal performance could be enhanced with correlative nutrition protocols. Knowing that just because one may have that genetic trait doesn’t guarantee an outcome, it is still an interesting and lively topic, at least I think it would be, and may (?) lead to more research on ideal/actionable protocols for nutrition/sports performance.
If you could do a video on tendons would be awesome such as achilles. Thank you for sharing your indepth knowledge, nice to learn some truth about the body
So underrated stuff to know about genetics. Hopefully better and more extensive data comes out over time. Just my observation tells me that genetic variations in total account a lot more than a few % in extremes. Some people can lift enormous stuff without much training and others can run fast for very long - again with limited or no training. These qualities are never in one person.
This episode is awesome! Thanks again, Dr. Galpin. Can you use more analogies? Its how Mike Israetel and Andrew Huberman make complicated concepts easier to understand.
just as an idea: given that u stay up to date with the information on different facets of performace, u might be making videos on these topics once a month or year where u come and discuss the new findings
this style of explaining the history, deep physiology in a University Lecture like is very cool. i defintely like it and would like to see. i dont know if its popular though. might be a trade off
This is brilliant. Thank you. I just found out from 23andMe that I am part of the 15% Europeans and 0% elite sprinter ACTN3 genotype cohort. Yesterday I followed this up with more grim news from Xcode Life. Now I have to avoid the mind trap - know that as a 59 year old, useful-at-times club athlete, I can still do "very fit for my age" and that these genes are not totally in control 🤣 🧠🧠🧠
@@commons9351 your statement about sprinting and race is problematic for several reasons. Firstly, race is a social construct, not a biological or athletic category. It’s defined by societal perceptions and classifications, not by physical abilities like sprinting. Secondly, linking race to athleticism perpetuates harmful stereotypes. It’s crucial to recognize that such statements can reinforce biases and hurtful beliefs. Let’s be mindful of these implications in our conversations.
@@iche9373 Yes, let's be mindful of the implications of our conversations. My original comment has nothing to do with race, my second comment was intended as a pun based on what I felt was your obtuse comment - as in a '100m race'. Apologies if you have not understood my post - I am dyslexic and therefore not always super clear, plus the figures I use are not at all spot on (15%, I believe, is more like 18%, according to the data, and the zero may well be true for elite sprinters, but as Andy says your DNA does not necessarily dictate the outcome). While I do concur with the undying sentiment of your last message, I have made no comment about 'race' in the context that you are using it: I only identified as being ACTN3 TT and being part of the diverse population of people currently living in Europe. I hope this helps explain our misunderstanding.
Wanting to be a sprinter and I had a genetic test that showed im ace dd and actn3 rx and i got depressed for not having the rr genotype. I guess i was overreacting.
If we had just continued research in eugenics since the 1920’s… We would have made so much more progress. Clearly a joke, but only kind of… (I know the horrible historical context, and how little we actually knew at the time. I am just in support of science between consenting adults.)
You can't explain complicated topics like this any more simply without degrading the essence of what he is saying. I am well versed in this field-it cannot be explained any more simply. This is unfortunately the part where one has to do their own research.

Stoked you found some value in it!
Very interesting topic. I'm glad someone as good as you is covering this Dr. Andy!
Looking forward to learning
You bet!
Thank you Dr. Galpin, cannot belive we get this info for free.
But it is!!!!
@@drandygalpin😂 thank you keep em coming 🙏

Can you please do an episode that goes in depth with HRV? I would love to fix my insanely low HRV 🙏🏽
Good idea 👍🏻 HRV in p
Sports performance and health optimization
You got it!
I just finished an intense 14 minute HIIT session for my soccer cardio now here to learn !
Get some!
Love to see Andy reference Gattaca. "You want to know how I did it? I never saved anything for the swim back"
Such a damn good film and I vividly recall that scene/quote.

Wow! This wonderful class. Thank you Dr. Galping .❤❤❤❤
Exactly what I been waiting for 💯💯
Hope it lived up to your expectations!
@@drandygalpin of course it did, waiting for the next show doc!💯👍
❤❤ love you dr. Andy brother.. from India..
🤟🤟

Is there a difference in longevity of muscle built through strength training and hypertrophy training?
Doesnt Robert Försterman (German Track cyclist) also have myostatin mutation?
Great Video, love it 🙂
I don't know if that has ever been officially confirmed.
Velocity based training video soon?

European is not a race
@@iche9373 it is when you're sprinting.

I wouldn't use that ACTN3 information for a single damn thing.

Eero Mantyranta mentioned; Finns will be excited!
Thanks to share his correct name.
I love Andy, but have limited time. I am built like a powerlifter and that is what I enjoy doing. Do I need this test?
No, just an update on the state of the technology.
@@Ryan.G.Spalding thank you.
Thanks great job
Thanks for watching!
Here we go!

Listening 👂
We need a GALPIN X MANOLIS KELLIS genetic vid. (I’m the guy hunting Gordon ;)
Sounds like Jedi midi-chlorians testing lol.
