Eric Berg's original video: [   • How to Grow Your Muscles? – Muscle Bu...  ](   • How to Grow Your Muscles? – Muscle Bu...  )

COMMENT ON DR. BERG'S CHANNEL (RESPECTFULLY) AND ASK HIM TO DEBATE ME

In this week's What the Fitness, we discuss a recent video from Dr. Eric Berg, a chiropractor who has never met a topic that he wasn't ready to give his uninformed opinion on. In this video he talks about 'How to Grow Your Muscles.' In it he makes various claims, the vast majority of which are unsupported by data. In the video I cite various references to debunk his claims that you can review below:

  • Hi Layne, Fantastic video! Hugely with the way you totally debunked Dr.Berg's bullshit! The video was really enjoyable and I definitely learnt a lot. Big thank you for making the video. Cheers, Billy
  • Berg expaining how to build muscle in the most bro-way ever, based on an interview with a bodybuilder. This was great.
  • @seans4893
    "Dr Eric Berg is A chiropractor that makes nutrition videos. Kinda like me making videos on space exploration". Love it!!
  • Would love to see Dr Berg train like Dorian while being on a keto diet, eating twice a day.
  • @beleares
    I followed Dr. berg for years, and honestly what his diet boils down to is high veggies, a moderate amounts of protein, and in general an extremely restrictive way of life, which generated in me an apprehension to most foods and sort of an eating disorder. Since I crashed so many times trying to diet the way he directs people to, I decided to study nutrition and get my facts straight. After I began understanding basic nutrition science (and science itself), I began noticing how wrong Berg was, like awfully and sometimes dangerously wrong. I began finding other sources, such as Byolane, Dr. Huberman, even Coach Greg, and I continued on on a path to true DATA. I am now finally able to have a proper diet and I am well on my way to fitness, better than ever in my life. It's good to see this channel calling a spade a spade. But unfortunately I know a lot of people may not have the sufficient understanding in science to separate truth from lies.
  • This is gold! Funny, entertaining and straight up no bs factual. Keto and IF have helped me control my dirty carb intake and hence improve fasting sugar levels, but there’s no way to grow muscle and/or lower body fat as EFFICIENTLY as a good balanced protein fat carb diet. But anyways great stuff man. Liked and subbed and looks like ama be binge watching your stuff!
  • this is most likely one of the best videos you've put out so far. bravo!
  • @r9nger
    I read the title, saw the thumbnail, and it was enough to make me LOL.
  • @Asphesteros
    It’s amazing how a calm authoritative sounding voice speaking slowly and clearly in front of a full whiteboard can be more compelling than accuracy.
  • omg thank you sooo much for this video !! i just came across this Dr BERG guy's videos today and watched a few regarding building muscle and he was just confusing the shit out of me relative to all the knowledge i had acquired over the past years on training and nutrition. THANK YOU !!
  • Bro I’m very much positive that you can win not only with dr. Berg but any debate with your knowledge and real research! And the last but not least your positive attitude. God bless
  • The cardio clip on building muscle cracked me up 😂😂
  • @Tubiega07
    Hey Layne! great video! Can you make one about growing muscle on calisthenics style training? i know i know... lol but i had a sport injury in my spine some years ago and 2 operations so im banned from lifting weights. It would be great since i think you are great. peace
  • Layne thank you for your videos about nutrition and working out. I went keto for 5 years because my hiatal hernia causing acid reflux. Keto helped that for sure. Here is the facts about my journey. I’m 63 years old. Workout with weight 5 days week. Former bball player in college and transitioned to running 25 years ago. Running competitively. I couldn’t keep doing keto because I couldn’t do the required speed work. Recently got my testosterone checked and it was 75!!!!!! Extremely low. Started implementing about 250 grams of carbs, lower my fats and increaesed protein and now my sleep mood is better and my test is up to 450. Thanks for all your advice and SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE. I OWE A LOT TO YOU
  • @elchappo1320
    Thank u for ur hard work, doc. Keep it up. More vids like this please
  • @Alkeje
    You are hilarious! I enjoy watching your videos. I like that you are able to point out the nuances of fitness and nutrition. In my field I have had to read lots of academic papers and general articles- lots of times I will read a journal article or just knowing basic chemistry and biology —- I say to myself “ what that person is saying doesn’t make sense” so I am glad someone with your educational background can bring clarity.
  • Been watching your vids for years. I've learned so much from your vids and programs over the years, just wanted to thank you for all you put out! Just stumbled upon this vid. Love the background on this. You should bring that back from time to time, if easy enough. Looks cool as shit!
