Elite Powerlifting Tactics: Insights From Sumi Singh & Lyle McDonald Solomon Nelson 2024-03-21 | This video is an interview of elite powerlifter Sumi Singh, and her coach, Lyle McDonald.We talk about competitive powerlifting. More specifically, we discuss topics such as training longevity, strategies on meet day, technique refinement, the intricacies of Sumi’s training, and the importance of cultivating certain psychological traits. (This list isn’t exhaustive either; Sumi and Lyle were both very generous with their time and knowledge, which I’m grateful for.)There’s something for everyone here, so as with my last interview with Lyle, I’ve included time stamps below that allow you to skip to whatever topic that interests you most.

How I Grew a God-Tier Back as a Natural Solomon Nelson 2024-02-02 | Generally, videos about how influencers grew [insert muscle here] are bad. However, this one is good. In fact, it may be the last video of its kind that you ever have to watch.First, I outline my back growth protocol. Second, I explain why what I did to grow my back shouldn't really matter to you, except for one thing (that is, my focus on progressive tension overload above all). Third, I defend the argument that progressive tension overload is the primary driver of muscle growth. I conclude by discussing two useful upshots of accepting my argument, among which is the fact that you won't have to waste your time watching nearly as much YouTube fitness content. Time stamps are given below:0:00 Chapter 1 - Introduction3:54 Chapter 2 - My back growth protocol10:22 Chapter 3 - Why you shouldn't care about my back growth protocol (except for one, important thing)15:12 Chapter 4 - The real key to muscle growth anywhere24:04 Chapter 5 - ConclusionMusic: Bach's C Major Prelude
Dear Noel Deyzel. Solomon Nelson 2024-01-23 | Noel Deyzel is a pharmaceutically-enhanced IFBB pro bodybuilder who recently made a video titled 'Dear Nikocado Avocado.' (linked below) wherein he calls for Nikocado to lose weight:youtube.com/watch?v=NznLu--F-AUIt occurred to me that Noel's exact words in his video also apply to him. So, I decided to make this video, wherein I re-enact Noel's script about Nikocado, except with a few substitutions to show how the content applies to Noel just as much as to Nikocado. I conclude by sharing my thoughts about what this means for Noel.Special thanks to my friend dogroll for the thumbnail.Background music: The Passion HiFi - Friday

BRET CONTRERAS EXPOSED Solomon Nelson 2020-04-06 | You might know of Bret Contreras as the 'glute guy’. He has a PhD in sports science, and his claim to fame is that he helps women attain more muscular glutes. To that end, he popularized a glutes exercise called the barbell hip thrust. His glute growth hacks have earned him a considerable social media following, with his follower count nearing 1 million on Instagram as of the making of this video, far outstripping other evidence-based fitness authorities. However recently, some ugly things about Bret have surfaced, which I discuss in this video. In the first part of this video I question Bret's integrity as an evidence-based fitness authority, discussing the barbell hip thrust’s effectiveness, Bret’s PhD research, and some miscellaneous sexist claims that Bret has made. In the second part of this video I discuss some recent allegations that have been made against Bret, which if true are damning. Included are how he allegedly treats homeless people, an intimate partner, trainees, colleagues and peers.I realize that this is a long video, so here are some time stamps you can use to skip to parts that interest you.The Barbalho et al. hip thrust vs squat study: 2:23Bret’s sexist article: 8:18Sohee Lee’s account of her abusive relationship with Bret: 12:29Bret’s response to Sohee: 23:18Reddit post about Bret written by someone who claims to have been his colleague: 24:49Greg Nuckols’ comments about Bret: 37:51Mark Hilton’s discoveries about Bret: 39:20Conclusion: 39:42Links to sources:Lyle McDonald's articles about Barbalho et al. vs Bret:bodyrecomposition.com/training/hip-thrust-better-than-squatbodyrecomposition.com/training/hip-thrusts-vs-squats-pt2Bret's patronizing article:web.archive.org/web/20130722093000/bretcontreras.com/strength-training-for-womenSohee podcast:Episode 143 of The Best Life Podcast around the 45 min markReddit post about Bret:reddit.com/r/survivorsofabuse/comments/faqwvm/wolf_in_sheeps_clothing_the_glute_guy_isnt_who_we/?utm_source=amp&utm_medium=&utm_content=post_bodyMark Hilton's Instagram account @markhiltonfitnessinstagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3OTk3NDQ0OTEzMjg3Njk3?igshid=1rssgy5rixd5Memes courtesy of Instagram user @spaghettiandsarms

A Massive Hoax Exposes Social Justice in Academia... Or Does It? Solomon Nelson 2019-03-18 | I'm a bit late to the party, but this is my take on the 'grievance studies' affair. If you don’t know what that is, it was a hoax where 3 authors (James A. Lindsay, Peter Boghossian and Helen Pluckrose) created bogus academic papers to submit to academic journals in areas like culture, queer, race, gender, fat, sexuality, etc.In this video I explain the hoaxers' motives and methods, and then I give my opinion as to whether they accomplished what they set out to prove.
