Can we discover whether anything is true or false just by doing a simple muscle test? Does our subconscious mind really have access to an unlimited reservoir of knowledge, or only knowledge that is limited to our personal observations and experience? Is applied kinesiology a powerful science that allows us to tap into our full potential as human beings, or merely a pseudo-science that has no basis in factual reality?

I needed to find out about these claims for myself, so I did this double-blind experiment with some help from my brother-in-law Joe (an engineering grad from Imperial College in London) and my father, Alex (an engineering grad from the Technion Institute in Israel). The results were very interesting...

Check out Dr. David Hawkins and his books at:

I hope you get some entertainment and food for thought out of this video, and whatever level of merit you personally place on these ideas, I wish you the best on whatever path you are on :)

  • what song is that playing at 3:07 - 3:55?

  • "Eple" by Royksopp

  • I have read David Hawkins books and he has many valuable insights, although they are based on his personal beliefs which are not necessarily reality. He does not represent Applied Kinesiology but uses the tool of muscle testing. You would not know the difference, why would you? It is Hard to Think for ourselves, when all we have been taught is what to think.

  • OK, thanks for sharing your take on it.

  • Ignorance and education are by no means terms of opposite meaning. There are many educated ignoramuses.

    The person who is naturally ignorant becomes still more so when educated, because he sees less reason than before to use his own weak powers of judgment.

    The intelligent person, when confronted with anything new, WHETHER HE IS EDUCATED OR NOT, will reserve his opinion until he has sufficient evidence available FROM RELIABLE SOURCES to make a decision.

  • 1. Consider that the only reliable source is firsthand subjective experience, free of expectation, belief, and interpretation. That was my purpose in testing Hawkins' claims for myself. 2. Just maybe, consider that you use the label "ignorant" as a broad and sweeping negative label so you can discredit others without having to consider their viewpoints (or experiment results). Put in another way - What exactly is it that these "ignoramuses" are ignorant of?

  • One big thing to know is that if you are doing applied kinesiology to see if it works, then the intention lacks integrity, therefore the results will only be 51% accurate. So please don't state this as inaccurate if you don't even know what you are doing. Please take a course in Applied Kinesiology, or check in see what is going on.

  • As you know the accuracy level of applied kinesiology is based on if the tester or testee has integrity, along with the question has to have integrity so it is very important how you ask the question. I have been using Muscle-testing for over 5 years, and have been very accurate and have helped people tremendously. The double blind test has been 100% accurate with me.

  • Jesus Christ? Really? Your double blind study is ridiculous! The guy your testing doesn't know what's on the card! Muscle Testing isn't psychic. I haven't read David Hawkins books but I've read many books on the subject and can muscle test and never have I heard of anyone trying to PREDICT outcomes using it. That's absurd! As was your qualifier for a strong muscle. Many falsehoods exist about this practice but your demonstration wasn't science, that's obvious to even the casual observer.

  • are* not aren't. sorry.

  • The subjects are also always told to shut their eyes and then are tested with the phrase "I may ask this question" as rudimentary. None of the basic guidelines were followed. You must be precise and clear with this experiment. No one should abandon the A.K. tech due to this failed attempt at A.K. Hawkins, George Goodheart and many others researched this method with scientific methods for decades. The methods proved consistent and perfectly replicable. The tester is in fault not anything other.

  • You should rephrase the question. David Hawkins made it very clear that if your results aren't paradoxical then it's due to interference or irresponsible testing. Interference can stem from many things, some areas addressed by hawkins are "cologne or perfume, jewelry, and negative tone in the voice of the tester can heavily effect a low conscious subject or anything of a negative vibration can. If so you are only penetrating that persons field of attraction, not wisdom.

  • Thank you for this thoughtful video. As an energy medicine and energy psychology practitioner who uses kinesiology in my work, I've been very troubled by the inappropriate understanding and inappropriate use of this valuable tool. I put an article on my website (aligningenergies) specifically talking about muscle testing reliability and interpretation. This video confirm my understanding which is that muscle testing reflects what is in the "thought field."

  • I think the experiment is legit. And at Tin Roof calibrates very high on my intuitive calibration of consciousness (plus he's hot). Good Video - I was really curious!
