Just want to say thank you for putting out helpful content to educate people instead of clickbait or misleading people for financial gain. Your channel is the one I always recommend to my family and friends getting into fitness. Big respect Dr Swole !

[jasongenova]

Great advice Dr Swole ! I would say the second one, not training hard enough, is the biggest mistake most people make. As we have seen in practice, many bodybuilders have built amazing physiques with hard work even though they use poor programming. And on the flip side, we see many people never build any muscle at all even though they use “optimal” programming because they never work hard.

Can’t believe this channel isn’t at least 100k subs yet? Quality content consistently every week! Cheers Doc

Just imagine the poor bloke who breaks into Dr Swoles house. The burglar thinks it’s going to be an easy robbery. Next thing he knows there’s an Asian bodybuilder wielding a sword coming at him.

[colegriffioen]

Consistent and high quality videos, praying this channel gets what it deserves and blows up

[Marcocappp]

Beginner here and I have to say your channel is amazing, definitely implementing your advice into my trainings, luckily I started with a good friend of mine and I’ve been doing most of what you said from his advice, Form is king💯💯💯💯.

[northyorkshirelad]

Fantastic channel. Never fails to give excellent advice. Thank you!

[ryanburch]

Your channel is awesome, great content, clear presentation and authority with your MD background.

Only one positive feedback suggestion is have you considered getting a super nice camera and light setup like some of the other professional youtube channels? Although it is only a surface level change, I think it would take your channel to the next level on the way to 100k subs

Hey dr swole, I need advice. How would I go about building muscle optimally when I have shift work. Which means my work shifts are 24 hours on 2 days off reapeated. Asking this because I won’t get sleep.

[ICcccreg]

You should make a workout routine that consist of super sets, and drop sets

[rd_iimpact]

I struggle with the last one. My sleep has been horrible lately 😔

[VeNeRaGe]

How to know how much volume should I be doing a week?

[justvibing]

How many rest days until you hit the muscle again

[kakamena]

Hi, I was watching ur 4 day Upper, Lower split. I was wondering what I can do instead of deadlifts if I have back pain on the right side of my back...

[WiecznieNieNasycony]

Worst Beginner Mistake is using that sword on the wall)

[zaritaleehetheru]

all of these tips mean you are still training people? 🤔🤔 Thank you for all the amazing tips, you never fail to give great information and tips.

[eivindgjengstjohansen]

The only difference between a natty and a roid workout plan is the volume and weight's

Here is a (should i go low volume?) workout plan

Day 1 - legs, chest, back, glutes and core
Day 2 - back, chest, legs, glutes and core
Day 3 - legs, chest, back, glutes and core
Day 4 - back, chest, legs, glutes and core
Day 5 - chest, legs, back, glutes and core

F*** the other body parts lol they get trained too without needing to work them out directly lol
