A Day in the Life of Dr. Mercola - His Exercise Routine

[Brandic2020]

Everything you see here is the power of meat.

[Brandic2020]

Dr. Mercola can out-lift those vegans and vegetarians like Harley Johnstone.

[Brandic2020]

Doctor, you have some sexy legs there.

[tbharris9]

Wow you guys are rough on him. I seriously doubt he is going for the body builder look or world class sprinter. His main point is that everyone should be exercising to some degree.

[Ezuip]

hey hey doc with some 5-fingers by Vibram...good shut! Great Doc, the only problem on my part is the smith machine... worst equipement available for functionality... use it just maybe no more than 5 % of your year.

[intimom]

I think you guys are expecting to see a "Jack Lalane" type of guru. No need to shoot the messenger. His message is still good and can improve your current health.

[haro9727]

Mercola's a good guy. He has great full-spectrum health advise.

[kdawg860]

i dont know if you do routines when you work out but i do with my friend and he always writes them down on his notepad and brings it with him because theyre extensive and complex. he's a personal trainer and has been working out for a long time. if he didnt write them down he'd forget.

also, mercola is an old man. i think being able to do these exercises is impressive for a guy his age.

[IvanDrago187]

@kdawg860 lol a little harsh, doc mercola is middle aged, not old! 

[enamayan]

I noticed the RKC kettlebells there on the side. I would like to see you use them. Great tool! Great shoes too! I have the sprint version.

[traveleverymonth]

great video, i am sure the shoes are very healthy to use to exercise but they make you look like a ballerina. :)

[jfezzy69]

@traveleverymonth they're called vibrams and are great for your feet. you can choose from dozens of styles... i recommend anyone check them out =)

[holisticjose]

awesome vibram fivefingers!! I have a pair of those! Love em!

[jukijunk]

Dr Mercola u should try martial arts.

[MoroccanSword]

Doctor Joseph Mercola you are more fit than I m .

God bless you !

[ebutuoy88]

Good, vid, thanks doc.

You should really show us your flexilibility training!

[jenGeeJushawshee]

Vibram Five Fingers, they have at least 4 styles.

[loveguitars]

Doc,

45 minutes cardio at moderate intensity is not the best way to go.

Look in to the HIIT way to train for cardio. You have to train with high intensity for 1 minute than low intensity for a minute. In 10 minutes you done. Do it 6 days a week for 10 minutes. Make sure you train with high intensity. You lungs will thank you.

[Cventures]

Agreed. The heart starts conditioning around 6 minutes and stops conditioning after 24 minutes of training, any time after that you are just creating inflammation. This is the reason we are seeing all these marathoners having heart attacks, their hearts aren't prepared for shock.

Interval training with high intensity periods and recovery periods trains the body for shock and greatly increases lung capacity. Compare sprinters to marathoners, which would you rather look like?

[CoolConejo]

@Cventures pussy

[Cventures]

By the way, if you want to be a little bit proactive (you probably won't) go look up the studies of the Father of Cardiac Stress Testing... a Scandinavian by the name of Karvonen. You can also go check out Dr. Coopers work as he elaborated on what Karvonen already proved.

Why do you think marathoners are dropping dead on their runs? Inflammation is the number one cause of death contrary to what all the docs are saying. Enjoy the research that I'm sure you won't do, insults are good though.

[Teghead]

Yo Dr, you're wearing Vibrams, that's great. Fancy making a video about why/if you think they're a good health product?

[VexRiot]

Some of those exercises appear to be dangerous.

[alphamale300k]

lol @ exercises appear to be dangerous.

If you are old and overweight or if you are not used to working out, then yes.

[maintainingabalance]

He is wearing vibram five fingers :) I have the same pair as him.

[postit940]

Kettle bells, I noticed yours, how much do you use them?

[ZEvenEsh]

Awesome stuff Doc!!

[constablekohler]

Dr Mercola runs marathons so I'm sure he has good views on those types of athletes

[matrixm777]

Great tips!! Thanks Doc...
