I love this podcast, it’s super informative and entertaining. I like the addition of the Case Files, I’d love to get more of that.

Voice no emotion. Cadence no variation. Since Nov 2023 problem.

Drs. Feigenbaum and Baraki present well-researched, evidence-based reviews on a variety of fitness related topics. They know way more than I ever knew about general medicine (I’m an orthopedic surgeon) and present it in a concise, if rapid-fire, discussion. They seem to remain free of bias when...Read full review »

Great podcast and find myself keep coming back for new knowledge and information, revision and reframing many aspects of barbell training. The medical content really helps me better appreciate how complex things really are and to better filter out simplistic statements and claims that at first...Read full review »

Love the podcast. I wish it had a wider audience but I enjoy the production and willingness of the Docs to say, “I don’t know” or “I changed my stance”. Definitely love the shorter bites that have been added to the downloads.

Been listening to and enjoying the show for about a year on and off, but I’m writing this review to say that, specifically, the short episode format (like the recent episode on the vegan/omnivore twin study) is great. As a pretty busy person, I appreciate how direct and focused these episodes...Read full review »

There is so much “info” out there about fitness, it can be hard to know what to trust. Listen to this podcast once and you will see these docs do their homework. A lot of times what they advise makes common sense, but they go through all the data and provide the references to back it up. As a 65...Read full review »

I have long noted that if you ask a self appointed expert a question, the answer is almost always sure and definitive. On the other hand, if you ask am actual expert, the answer almost always starts with, “It’s complicated,” and the rest of the answer is nuanced - and includes sone kind of...Read full review »

Finally health and fitness brought to you by medical doctors that use science and evidence to guide you in health and fitness. In a space that is full of misinformation and, oftentimes, harmful advice, it is refreshing to get evidence backed information. I worked out for years getting information...Read full review »

The most evidence-based and nuanced health and fitness podcast out there. Refreshing to find in a space often filled with reactionary contrarianism and misinformation everywhere you turn. Thank you!

Corporate shills for big fitness and the nuance industrial complex

Tons of useful info from knowledgeable experts

A breath of fresh air in a world full of misinformation. Great evidence-based material and an enjoyable presentation.

Thank you for your hernia episode! This is the only place on earth I could find anything on lifting and hernias, and from qualified doctors it was beyond helpful.
DSE1985 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/11/23
Excellent range of topics with research and experiential based comments. While athletically focused on powerlifting I still find the information provided useful to weightlifting performance and health.
Rcsnyder via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/09/23
Great great info, well done! Easy enough for me to understand ( lay person lol)…. And be able to wrap my brain around the facts & information. Practical information and things that are applicable to your life and training 👌🏽🫶🏻💪♥️. Great job guys! 👏
PSJG31 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/07/23
Terrific Episode #228. Maybe in the future explain a bit more about HSA, Orosomucoid, & CBG & affinity. As noted by DrBaraki, seemingly, the Androgen Receptor Site Sensitivity factor is The issue for all. Also how to Up-Regulate the number of Receptor sites would be a great discussion...Read full review »

Currently studying Neuroscience at University and the research article reviews, analysis and criticisms have been far more beneficial to me for understanding what makes a medical research paper good or bad or okay, than the fitness information (but the fitness information is absolutely top notch...Read full review »

Barbell medicine has great content almost stem to stern full of nuance, training and medical advice, practical tips, latest research, and cutting through nocebo. Guys need to stay in their area of expertise, the mental training episode was obviously outside their expertise.
The tip top bombardier via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/23
This podcast has taught me so much and has helped me question things I read in different ways and motivate me to reassess how we look at training and what we want to achieve. In particular I love the phrase “you’ll overestimate what you can do in a year but underestimate what you can do in 10...Read full review »
Erikuwahl via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 02/17/23
Jordan and Austin (and others) present valuable information not just on “what do” but “why do”. More importantly they help prioritize topic value to long term health and dispel commonly held misbeliefs and half-truths. They are doing work that will be valued long after we all are dust.
suthper via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/23
The most accurate and reliable information in the strength and conditioning atmosphere. 10/10 would recommend.
kocwal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/23
Been listening to these guys for 6 months now. Appreciate the honest and real (science based) tips and tricks. Added a ton (pun intended) of value to my daily lifts. Keep the great work, Dr. F and Dr. B!
kyapp75 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/23
Finally! A source of exercise information that both can be trusted and consists of a team of folks who have the knowledge, education, and looks to back it up. I appreciate all that you do. Really.
ProzonerAL via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/01/23
I have been intending to write a review for some time now. Over the past couple of years as I have listened to Jordan’s intro or outro on the podcast encouraging listeners to leave a review, I have told myself “I’ll do it sometime” and then never seem to make it happen. Today is that day. There...Read full review »

Everything on this podcast is evidence based, without any bro-science. 10/10
shota_b via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 11/14/22
He asks thoughtful questions and doesn’t interrupt his guests, and he has a good sense of humor without making lame jokes or trying to hard for the sake of trying to make it entertaining like some podcast hosts do.
Ryan Burnham via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/22
I can't believe how much I've learnt from these podcasts; the breadth of knowledge in every episode is incredible. It's also challenged my own relationship with evidence based science - e.g. I've stopped taking multivitamins every day, but I'm still oddly reluctant to throw...Read full review »

The knowledge shared in this podcast is second to none. One would be hard-pressed to find more qualified power lifting advisors than Drs. Feigenbaum and Baraki; two medical degrees and 700+ deadlifts...what more could you want?
4scotty_a via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/22
Really enjoy the content on these podcasts. As a non-medical expert, and a guy into fitness and strength but really a hobbyist/amateur, I greatly appreciate how things get explained in a way I can understand as a non-expert. There is a real effort to evaluate ideas thoughtfully, and...Read full review »
Dace Caldwell via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 10/09/22
Keep doing this work! I’ve been lifting four years and have had my fair share of aches and pains on this lifting journey. Your content has helped me understand that sometimes the pain is part of the process and there are ways I can adapt my training to get healthy and move past it, with time....Read full review »
SHAQ TURNER via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/21/22
Not sure how Dr. F finds the time to be so good at so many things, but he’s also really good at podcasting. What makes this unique is how well it stays relevant without being “hip” or a marketing gimmick. Maybe objectivity isn’t dead in our culture after all…
CatVideosamdCurls via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/22
I am usually a big fan of MB podcasts - the conversations between Drs. Baraki and Feigenbaum are always enlightening and educational. It is always good to get the opinions of young doctors whose ideas come from critical thinking and not just the dogma of years in the professional. However, for...Read full review »

Probably among the best health oriented information sources on the internet.
knektis via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 04/11/22
Evidence based medicine combined with factual data. This podcast isn’t trying to sell you any products, they’re engaging thoughtful conversation for a healthful life.
Blackbeltgirl22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/22
Amazing content! Uptodate and reliable! I’m super stocked about episode 168 (programming during rehab) because the nonsense around that topic is limitless! Love the nuance and the GainZz!
trainunnamed via Apple Podcasts · Egypt · 02/24/22
Fantastic evidence-based podcast for anything resistance training, health, or medically related. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to deepen their knowledge in any of these topics. However, the only thing holding it back from being 5 stars for me is that they can both (but particularly...Read full review »

Barbell medicine’s podcasts seek to bring truth to the world of health, fitness, and modern medicine, a goal that is hard to come by in todays social media world. Their views on exercise, pain science, and medicine have changed my views on these topics for the better. A must listen!
Shankthecar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/22
In a world of sketchy influencers and social media “gurus”, Barbell Medicine offers an oasis of solid science and guidance for living a better life through strength. Jordan, Austin, and the rest of the team are doing critical work to fight misinformation and call out silly bull#%it.

Loved the recent podcast on osteoporosis! Jordan & Austin do a great job making medical topics/info easily digestible. Great content as always!

I experience minimal levels of exertion while listening to these very nuanced podcasts🙂
gimmedat_0 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/21
I really wish there were ads on this podcast so I could in some small way reward the Barbell Medicine team. I feel so guilty it’s free I might have to buy a template or merch just to try and repay them. I’m a microbiologist, so this podcast has little professional impact on me, but it has...Read full review »

They are trying to reinvent the wheel after everyone kicked them off their bandwagon.
3rdcoast_slope via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/21
Jordan and Austin (and the rest of the BM crew) do incredibly well to cover a variety of topics in depth while still maintaining a level of discussion that many can understand. The perfect balance of medicine and lifting with a touch of bro-humor
Mikemon *.* via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/17/21

It often feels like there are so many scammers or politically motivated perspectives, people, and “facts” about strength & conditioning and general health. This podcast is actual science, presented in a fair handed way by the hosts and their very qualified guests. They are truly determined...Read full review »
