I'm also having my friend and past coach Dr. Layne Norton join me. Subscribe to Layne's channel here: youtube.com/biolayne1

    Idk how Jeff controlled his blood lust the second Dr. Norton said Kiwi was overrated
  • @Deondre_Clark
    "I changed my thoughts on this" is such an indication that Layne is a serious person who bases his beliefs on best available evidence. I really appreciate anyone who is willing to admit they don't know everything and are open to change
  • @JokerManiacz
    PLEASE make this a series. This is such a fantastic way to convey information AND it’s nice to have two people doing it. Also nice to have you guys vote game-show style so it’s your true opinion. I love this
  • I would PAY for a panel of 4 experts to do this for every question. This is gold
  • @Myyzell
    you should make this a series. it’s very concise and brief with good information
  • Honestly I wouldn't mind a one hour version of this where they go in depth and cover even more topics. This was an amazing video especially for newcomers, cuz they can get all this info in bite sized pieces and get a general idea.
  • @matts1392
    Jeff kicking his feet and yelling "Nooo" at the Kiwi verdict was hilarious and kind of adorable.
  • @TheeDeeM
    God I love this channel. Gym culture can be so toxic and devoid of discussion and facts, but man these guys actually make me want to try going to the gym again.
  • @GymGarageMan
    When I was a kid training and diets were made so complicated! Now I realise its simple..eat sensibly rest well and PUSH it to the limit! Still pushing it even at 52 years old!!!
  • @GayBearBro2
    The lifting straps thing is imsane for me. My lats and traps have never felt more sore from deadlift, shrugs, rows, etc. than when I use straps. Yeah, it leaves my forearms at the door, but it feels so good making my bigger muscles so sore.
  • @coma13794
    Incredible. So rare to find sincere, objective videos like this. No hype, just great takes, one topic at a time. Excellent explanations and reasoning, too.
  • As a 50 year old, it helps to know that keeping it simple is the way forward. Thanks guys.
  • @grimgamer24
    I love this format of video please do more. A lot of information briefly, but still well described. Love the duo as well!
  • @al3x_k388
    Jeff taking every opportunity to take a dig at Coach Gregg 😂
  • @benstringer5699
    This was so incredibly helpful; thanks to the both of you! Please make this exact style a series- I can't think of a single thing to change.
  • @ferrm1992
    This is the collab I didn’t know I needed. Love both of your contents
  • @DiggityDawg9
    I’m a very stressed person so with taking ashwaganda I actually feel a lot less stressed at school and at work overall. Good video Jeff.
  • @TheInostep
    The sheer amount of knowledge given in this video is under rated
  • @jburd5435
    I’ve been watching Jeff for years and this is one of my favorite videos! Way to be concise and hit the main points. Thanks!
  • Please do more of this! More Layne. More collabs. More videos like this and especially the other recent workout video with Layne. The workout video was much more entertaining and informative than watching Cbum workout honestly. The little bites of "coaching" throughout the workout and the banter is great for many reasons.
