As we chat, Dr. Feigenbaum opens up about his unique approach to blending modern medicine and strength conditioning, the critical gaps in lifestyle medicine training for healthcare professionals, and how addressing these could drive substantial positive change in our communities. Timeline: 2:40 – How did Dr. Feigenbaum come up with Barbell Medicine? https://www.barbellmedicine.com/the-team/  4:02 - In 2015, less than 10% of primary care physicians knew that the exercise guidelines existed.  Of that 10%, less than half are recommending to their patients. 4:58 – What should your primary care physician know about exercise? 8:51 – What should we expect of the modern-day physician? 16:20 - Use of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists (e.g., Ozempic, Trulicity, Byetta, etc.) to fight obesity – Dr. Feigenbaum’s philosophy on this. 22:40 – Nutrient deficiency may be an issue with those who use GLP-1 agonists. 32:32 – If your goal was to live as long as possible, would you change the way you train? 36:03 – The hype around zone 2 training – Dr. Feigenbaum opines on the silliness of it. 40:31 – When people make confident claims about zone 2 or anything for that matter, it would help to have a multitude of data to support it. 41:55 – Huberman follies 41:56 – Cold water immersion will reduce body fat?  43:01 – Tongkat Ali and Fadogia Agrestis – do they increase testosterone to a physiologically significant degree?  44:50 – Should you wait for 1.5 to 2.0 after awakening before drinking coffee to avoid the afternoon crash? 47:23 - People want confident claims. They don’t want nuance. 48:48 – The “soleus push-up” is a waste of time. About our guest: Jordan Feigenbaum MD is a physician, strength coach, and competitive powerlifter.
