How to Build Muscle | Dr. Andy Galpin & Dr. Andrew Huberman

For hypertrophy, you need 1 of 3 variables.
1) Frequency
2) Intensity
3) Volume

We need more from your time with Mike Mentzer!

The fourth element of hypertrophy is the beard and mustache combination.

So you don't need to tear muscle in order for the protein to come in an build into it for size and strength? hmmmmm

Great content brother! Do you have a business email?

Doesn’t forming bonds release energy? In metabolism I get that you’re never only breaking or only forming bonds, but the way he said it seems wrong

When I was watching the full podcast video, I heard Dr. Galpin mention Mike Mentzer and how he likes his character.
I am curious about his thoughts on the 1set to failure protocols, he did talk about 15 to 20 sets being the optimal range, but he also mentioned that there are many different methods to achieve hypertrophy. I am really curious to know what Dr. Andy Galpin thinks about Mike's training philosophy for hypertrophy.

That was lot of waffle with not much practical advice other than train hard enough and frequent enough to build muscle.

holy crap, you KNOW the question. i don't see a need to rephrase it. Seems so LONG WINDED.

Dr Galpin, whats frequent enough? Im new to lifting. I have no clue.

I love listening to a person with no Muscle tell me how to build muscle...

BORING!!!!

how about if your prediaetic carb are not good for some one with this condiion?

What about all those doctors saying we don't need carbs, defending keto diet????

If I understand Dr. Galpin correctly, a low-carb, or keto, diet would be a poor choice in achieving hypertrophy?

this shit made me cry

As Ronnie Coleman said in one of his training videos "Lift heavy as possible and as many repetitions as possible"

He calls hypertrophy training "idioph"?

Asking a question here as Andrew mentioned on one of his podcasts that the comments do get read, so let's hope this one gets through. My question is in regards to Vitamin C supplementation and its effects on building muscle. From what I understand there have been studies showing that Vitamin C supplementation (usually 500mg to 1000mg) can hinder hypertrophy (not sure about strength gains) and blunt the growth of muscle quite significantly. Given that one of your sponsors is AG1 and has roughly 420mg of Vitamin C per serve (420% RDI), should people be concerned –those who are aiming to grow muscle at least– about a loss of muscle growth due to daily Vitamin C supplementation? Or has the literature changed and shown that Vitamin C doesn't actually impact hypertrophy? Thanks for all your incredible work and the information you're putting out there.
