💪 Versa Grips and Testosterone Replacement Therapy

The script introduces Versa grips as a tool to enhance grip strength, which can be particularly beneficial for those with strong upper bodies but weaker grips. It then shifts focus to discuss testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), which Joe Rogan started at the age of 40. Dr. Mike explains the importance of TRT for those with genuinely low testosterone levels and warns against its misuse. He stresses the need for a comprehensive approach to health, including diet and lifestyle changes, before considering TRT as a solution.

Keywords

💡Functional Strength

Functional strength refers to the ability of the muscles to perform daily activities efficiently and effectively. In the context of the video, it is related to the effectiveness of kettlebells in promoting full-body movement and athletic performance. The script mentions that while kettlebells are beneficial, barbells and dumbbells might offer superior functional strength due to their ability to challenge the muscles through a full range of motion and heavy loads.

💡Kettlebells

Kettlebells are a type of weightlifting equipment that look like a cannonball with a handle. They are used for various exercises to improve strength and endurance. The video script discusses kettlebells as a tool for functional strength, but it also suggests that they may not be as effective as barbells or dumbbells for overall fitness due to their limited range of motion.

💡Barbells and Dumbbells

Barbells and dumbbells are standard weightlifting equipment used for strength training. The script suggests that they are more versatile and effective for building functional strength than kettlebells, as they allow for a greater range of motion and can be used for a wider variety of exercises, including bodyweight movements like push-ups and pull-ups.

💡Bodyweight Exercises

Bodyweight exercises are physical training movements that use the weight of one's own body as resistance. The video emphasizes the importance of bodyweight exercises like push-ups, pull-ups, and dips for building functional strength, as they engage multiple muscle groups and can be done without any equipment.

💡Turkish Getup

The Turkish getup is a weightlifting exercise that involves raising a kettlebell from a lying position to an overhead press position, then returning it to the ground. The script humorously describes it as 'purposeless' and 'like a parlor trick,' suggesting that while it may look impressive, it may not be the most effective exercise for building functional strength in the context of sports like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

💡Versa Grips

Versa Grips are a type of training equipment designed to improve grip strength. In the video, the speaker discusses using Versa Grips to overcome limitations in exercises like pull-ups and bent rows, where grip strength can be a limiting factor. The script mentions Versa Grips as a tool for enhancing grip strength, which is essential for overall functional fitness.

💡Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a medical treatment used to address low testosterone levels in men. The video script discusses TRT as a potential solution for individuals experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, such as fatigue and reduced physical performance. However, it emphasizes the importance of proper diagnosis and lifestyle adjustments before considering TRT.

💡Carnivore Diet

The carnivore diet is a dietary approach that involves consuming only animal-based foods and excluding all plant-based foods. The script mentions that Joe Rogan has adopted this diet, noting its potential benefits for energy stability but also its limitations in terms of providing optimal performance levels due to the lack of carbohydrates.

💡Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are a macronutrient that provides energy to the body, particularly for high-intensity activities. The video script highlights the importance of carbohydrates for athletic performance, suggesting that a diet too low in carbohydrates, like the carnivore diet, may not provide the necessary energy for optimal performance.

💡Seed Oils

Seed oils are vegetable oils extracted from the seeds of plants, often used in cooking and food processing. The script addresses the controversy around seed oils, stating that they are generally considered healthy and safe when consumed in moderation and as part of a balanced diet, contrary to some niche opinions that suggest they are harmful.

💡Exercise Programming

Exercise programming refers to the planning and scheduling of workouts over a period of time. The video script praises Joe Rogan's approach to scheduling his workouts for the week in advance, which can help with consistency and adherence to a fitness routine. This method is recommended for those who struggle to maintain a regular exercise regimen.

good for you these are the foods and

almost everyone agrees Sugar's terrible

for you okay I'll just have to come out

swinging Joe Rogan no offense at all

you're the man and my respect for you is

super

[Music]

Mass hey folks Dr Mike here for RP

strength I am a longtime professor of

sport and exercise science am a

competitive bodybuilder and a

competitive Brazilian jiu-jitsu Grappler

and today I will be reviewing

the pharmaceutical nutritional and

training approaches of a the Mr Joe

Rogan who is also a Brazilian Jitsu

practitioner and I believe is a lot

better than I am at it though he is not

encumbered by the unathletic nature of

being Jewish yeah that's right I said it

I hope we don't get canceled for that

let's see what Joe Rogan is up to and

see if we can't learn some shit 3 2 1

Joe Rogan one of the things that I love

about kettle bells is that it promotes

functional strength it promotes the

entire body moving as a unit and that

seems to apply very quickly to Athletics

yeah cattle bells are pretty cool for

that um I will say that almost

everything kettle bells almost

everything kettle bells do well barbells

and dumbbells do better if you really

like kettle bells how they make you feel

how the movement is there's not a

goddamn thing wrong with them but I

would say like over indexing on kettle

bells as a first order priority of

trying to figure out your Fitness I

would say uh barbells and dumbbells

first also body weight movements

push-ups pull-ups dips things like that

are unbelievable and also machines are

great and all of these confer functional

strength functional strength is this

really interesting term which the more

you look at it scientifically the less

it means but it turns out that if you

practice or play whatever sport you do

whatever physical activity you do and

you challenge all of the muscles of your

body through insanely High deep stretch

ranges of motion challenging them with

heavy loads getting close to failure

moving the weights quickly on the way up

controlled on the way down then that

really is kind of the 90% of functional

strength there's nothing more functional

about a kettle bell than about than

there is about a dumbbell or a barbell

machines because they Auto stabilize you

and you can sit down where you do them a

little bit less functional but most of

the function in machines is gained just

because you're gaining that strength for

a full range of mo and the muscle mass

that comes with it if you want to

actually be function if you actually

want to function in the sport context

you have to lift weights kind of in any

way kettle bells dumbbells free weights

machines and then actually practice the

sport so you can learn to use your new

found muscle and strength in the ways

that make you functional in that sport

but if you want overall the best

functional program and you want it

really simple kind of nothing beats body

weight barbells and maybe a dumbbell

here or there kettle bells are cool but

they're a little bit more of a limited

tool

there are many reasons why but that's

one of them yeah and non-glamorous moves

like Turkish getup Turkish getup may be

the most glamorous move ever invented in

lifting it's entirely purposeless it

looks like a waiter fell down and is

still trying to make sure he doesn't

spill the rice all over the place no

offense no offense to anyone this is me

spilling out my mind here the Turkish

getup is like a parlor trick of lifting

it's uh not very clear to exercise and

Sport scientist what exactly which

system it um is the limiting factor for

Turkish getup

uh the reality is it's probably your

lateral ADT strength um and uh it's not

even a good way to build lateral ADT

strength it just tests shoulder

stability um and movements like

deadlifts power cleans Etc I mean this

is not even a comparison as far as

effect which is like one of the very

best moves for Jiu-Jitsu it's just

phenomenal for your stability your core

and your your ability to get out from

under the bottom bottom positions it's a

just a phenomenal work if you tell me my

next comp compor I don't know anything

about him can do a Turkish get up with

80 lbs or whatever I'm like that dope

scary guy if you tell me my next

competitor can deadlift 600 lb for reps

I'm running away because there's not as

much Jitsu is going to work on him as is

typically intended that's why we have

weight classes in Jutsu that's why we

have drug testing in Jutsu it's one of

the reasons why Gordon Ryan beats living

shed of everyone because he's just

bigger and stronger in a way that

Turkish getups cannot get you how do I

say this without embarrassing myself

I've got really really strong arms but

when when I reach for stuff sometimes it

slips away from me because I get these

my forearms just aren't that strong and

so when I'm trying to Bent roll a lot of

weight and get really strong and jacked

for jiujitsu to go hurt people yeah my

back's getting a good workout soore my

shoulders and arms but then the workout

stops because I lose my grip and this

has been haunting me for years and you

know what I finally did something about

it and I feel like a new man and you

know what that something is I purchased

Versa grips what are Versa grips you say

can't possibly be an adre that literally

makes Mike money no way no wait it's

also that Versa grips legit no joke guys

are unbelievable gripping tools that if

you are limited on your pull-ups on your

bent rows on your lateral raises by how

much you can grip versus how much your

other muscles can move you simply turn

your Versa grips around on that bar or

dumbbell and then youring hand will snap

off before that vers grip lets go so if

you want an awesome enhancement tool

especially if you're Advanced especially

if you're really strong especially if

you get a lot of grip work from other

stuff Versa grips are really awesome we

got a whole code for you to save money

there's links in the description do that

shit now back to our regular scheduling

program yeah but the

testosterone it's Scott what's this

guy's name Joey what is he known for

I've seen his face everywhere a comedian

actor comedian and actor

okay the the last video oh I got you

that's right the last video we um

reviewed was like the longevity shit the

Brian Johnson longevity video and then I

look at Joey Diaz's face and I'm like

that is not longevity no offense no

offense yeah all jokes folks all jokes

here I gotta got you side on this mother

oh yeah you should I'm I'm failing all

those tests yeah testosterone

replacement therapy hormone replacement

therapy I started doing all that when I

was 40 yeah it it makes a big difference

makes a big difference yeah uh trt is

cool uh we have a whole video on this

channel about should you use trt is trt

right for you I would highly recommend

you watch it because I think it's pretty

informative we try it anyway but the

thing with trt is that it can be

absolutely transformational if you need

it but if you get your test levels back

and they're totally normal you probably

don't need it and one of two things will

happen you'll take it you'll get all SS

of nasty side effects and waste your

money you'll have to inject yourself all

the time for no reason or

you'll take the trt and

the injections are fine and everything's

fine it's not a bother but kind of

nothing will happen so why are you

taking it trt is awesome if you need it

a lot of folks ask me about trt and I go

okay so what were your testosterone

levels when they were last measured and

they're like yeah like you know like

pretty average but I'm like what you

mean but motherucker if they're pretty

average bringing them up to average

times two probably doesn't do a whole

lot if they're very low bringing them up

to average or Beyond is going to do

wonders for you and many people hit

what's called informally andropause when

their natural testosterone production

falls off in their late 30s and early

40s and sometimes mid 40s and so Joe's

timing for his trt is actually quite

good so if you're you know really

feeling low testosterone symptoms any

time in life is good find to get checked

for a test but it's really in your 40s

and a little bit beyond that that you

might start thinking trt is something to

look into and then you go get that test

level checked and talk to your doctor

the key to doing it though is do it

correctly you're supposed to go to a

doctor that's going to test your blood

levels test your nutrient levels and

adjust your diet first bullshit you go

to the back of the Gold's Gym there's a

guy named Phil there he looks kind of

weird but he's cool trust me you ask for

all his best shit you pay him whatever

in cash and don't ever do alcohol swabs

or fresh needles you just got to cut

right to the Chase and do the dumbest

shit in the world no wait wait no Joe's

right the first thing that happens is

they they want to find out how much

you're sleeping how how how stressed out

you are what are you eating why the this

is really important a lot of people say

they need trt they come to the doctor or

they just come to someone who knows what

they're doing in the gym and go hey I

think I need

tt there may be a probability of two

things

one is what's causing all the problems

in your life isn't low testosterone it's

the fact that you're stressed out of

your mind you barely sleep you eat like

total shit you drink like a fish Etc if

you simply cleaned up your goddamn life

you wouldn't need trt because there's

nothing wrong with your testosterone

level to begin with all the bad shit

you're feeling all the bad health

effects are from Life circumstances and

if we put you on trt that's not going to

fix shit second thing that can happen is

your test levels might be low as

measured but it's because you under

sleeping like crazy you're super

overstressed your diet is total shit Etc

so if we can take care of all those

things come back in a few months test

your uh test your test levels uhuh

examine what your test levels are again

and find you're well in normal range and

no surprise you feel amazing trt is not

a bandage for an open gaping wound it is

an enhancement if you need it but a lot

of times the bad stuff in people's lives

isn't because they have low testosterone

it's because they're awful at Living the

rest of their life and sometimes their

low testosterone is also caused by the

fact that they have too much stress they

sleep like shit they eat like shit and

they're basically Booz hounds if you cut

a lot of that shit down substantially

and improve your life you may not need

trt if you do improve your life and they

measure your test again and it's still

low and you still feel a lot of those

bad symptoms you'll feel way less once

you clean up your life then they're like

okay great then they give you a trt and

then you're living your new best life

super super awesome my workout I

schedule every Sunday I schedule

everything that I'm going to do during

the week I say I have to do yoga two

times this week I have to lift weights

three times this week I have to run

twice this week and however I fit that

in I fit that in that's a really good

idea a lot of people have uh trouble

sticking to exercise programs but when

you ask them like okay what's your

program they're like well it's kind of I

don't know kind of varies and you're

like do you even know what is on the

agenda

no Joe seems to be architecting his plan

for the week

ahead and then holding himself to making

sure to checkbox all those things if you

need help with a plan that's architected

not just a week ahead but four to 6

weeks ahead you might want to try the RP

hypertrophy app the most effective

muscle growth training app ever

made get yours

[Music]

now if you really want to know like

what's good for you and what's bad for

you I always say listen to jacked

scientists thanks Joe those are the guys

I'm going to tell you like these are the

foods that are actually good for you

these are the foods and almost everyone

agrees Sugar's terrible for you

okay I'll just have to come out swinging

Joe Rogan no offense at all you're the

man and my respect for you is at a super

massive

level how do I say this without coming

off cocky good all for

jokes I am almost certainly the most

Jack scientist of all the people that

Joe Rogan is talking about I would

really like to see who's more Jack than

me in that regard and almost all

scientists say that sugar is totally

fine being that it not bringing in a ton

of excess calories and that's how sugar

is bad and also if you're eating a ton

of processed garbage it doesn't really

matter if it's processed garbage protein

sugar or carbohydrate which is simple

sugars and fats like it's all dog shit

so if you're consuming sugar from

relatively healthy sources and it's not

an excess calories the almost unanimous

consent in the actual research-based

scientific community of people that

study this kind of stuff is that sugar

is totally fine so is protein so is fat

what really matters is having them in

moderation in a balance and making sure

your calories are not excessive so that

you're lean and of a body weight that

allows you to be healthy that that's

really just about I don't

know it's just true is what it is and I

really am curious to see what Jack

scientists he's talking about because

again are they that jacked I don't know

what the PE bounds had to do with it

but yeah yeah and then you get into the

more controversial areas of seed oils

yeah I'll just say it right now seed

oils are not Rial seeds are only

controversial in a small Niche community

of typically extremely right-wing folks

that seem to be really upset about seed

oils for some reason um no offense to

the right wi y'all are great don't kill

me when the revolution

happens uh seed oils no controversy if

you look at the empirical literature and

there's been a lot of it just go to pmet

and you look at systematic reviews

narrative reviews meta analyses any kind

of comprehensive approach you're going

to realize that they've kind of studied

this more or less into the ground and

there's not a goddamn thing wrong with

seed oils they're totally fine and

totally healthy in most contexts now

people will say well look like you know

McDonald's french fried grease is made

of seed oils yeah it is but it's got a

couple other things in there like trans

fats that aren't that great for you and

it's the fact that each thing of fries

is 900 calories and you have to have two

of them because you can't stop eating

that's the bad part not the seed oils

part folks there's still more video to

watch and more fun to be had and more

things to learn I hope

but there is an Extended Cut of this

video with runchy nasty shit we just

couldn't show you on regular YouTube we

have a members area for that that also

has tons of other cool stuff it doesn't

cost a ton of money but it's great value

click around see if you like it I wanted

to get a full breakdown of Joe's is that

Joe Rogan yes is that me dude I get a

lot of shit on my social media like oh

my God it's Dana White like excuse me

sir yes you do you think all bald people

look the same I got it it's parts of

your brain that are missing no big deal

I wanted to get a full breakdown of

Joe's food program it's almost all meat

huh lot of jokes

there I'll shut up let's hear more about

Joe's diet my entire day was like 95%

elk started back on the carnivore diet

like one of the first things that I

noticed like almost immediately is that

I had an extra gear verbally my energy

levels are completely flat throughout

the day there's no crashes there's no

peaks in

valleys yeah the good thing is a

carnivore diet can keep your energy

levels relatively stable the bad thing

is the carnivore diet uh how do I put

this carbohydrates are the Undisputed

forever king of performance n nutrition

you want to perform at your best in

grappling in lifting in running in doing

whatever it is you do that takes lots of

high-intensity effort and focus and a

huge physical demand is no replacing

cars the all the research is in all the

athletes are almost unanimous

carbohydrates are King so with a

carnivore do you may have a steady

stream of energy throughout the day but

it won't be your highest energy level

that you're capable of perhaps another

approach you guys can try definitely try

that low carb approach it might work

really well for you but also try to eat

regular meals four meals a day for

example have plenty of protein plenty of

healthy fat because healthy fats

actually all fats slow down the

digestion and absorption of everything

else including the proteins and carbs

and make sure your carbs are relatively

low glycemic have high fiber so veggies

fruits and whole grains and not a ton of

them in every single meal not like 900

gam of carbs in one meal or some shit

like tons of pasta put you on your ass

just a moderate amount of carbohydrate

50 75 grams per meal four times a day if

you're like an adult-sized male or

whatever you try that and all of a

sudden you don't get Peaks and valleys

anymore you just get hungry for your

next meal you eat it and you feel great

and you feel great for 5 hours and you

eat your next meal when you're kind of a

little running a lot energy because of

this effect of eating slower digesting

carbohydrates paired with healthy fats

and proteins you can get a higher level

of daily energy and it's still really

really consistent if you go straight

carnivore the consistency is unmatchable

but it's on average for most people

going to be a lower level of energy you

do Jiu-Jitsu matches you gas out faster

there's just not as much oom uh no bueno

all right folks that was really fun um

again huge mega respect to Joe I could

be wrong about everything I said I'm

just sharing my uh my opinion I believe

to be true um Joe really gives a shit he

really cares about his diet he tries

really hard in his training and I will

say that as far as perception is

concerned on the internet YouTube land

Joe is maybe one of the most open-minded

people I have ever come across he'll

talk to basically anyone and at least

try to extract some wisdom from them

give them really good questions and

feedback and return but he's not just

pretending he knows it all me I really

do know it all which is nice nice no

wait that's wrong I know almost nothing

Joe is the man if you want to try some

lower carb shit do diligence give it a

shot if you want to try some kettle

bells they're sweet give them a shot if

you want to try some more moderate high

carb protocols you want to try barbells

and dumbbells they're also fing sweet

our Channel's all about that give

everything a try see what works best for

you and um let's take some inspiration

from Mr Joe Rogan who's like 50

something how old is Joe Rogan Scott 56

years old and stilling crushing it Joe

Rogan you're the fucking man you guys

are all awesome and uh see you guys next

time all right that was sweet folks

right here is a video that YouTube says

you should click on because I think it

makes YouTube a lot of money when you

watch YouTube also it might make us

money but I never see that money cuz Mr

n the rpco won't let me have any anyway

see you guys next time
