BODY BY SCIENCE — VIDEO 1 (COMMON THINKING ERRORS ABOUT FITNESS & HEALTH)
Recently Dr. McGuff gave a brief seminar about the content in our book Body By Science at a book signing that happened to be recorded on video tape. I’m going to post this seminar as a series, covering different topics covered in the book ranging from “cardio” to “Whom Can You Trust?”
It is my hope to provide higher quality videos of this talk (and others) on this site in the near future. In the meantime I will upload these excerpts on Youtube.com and post links to the presentations here on this blog. The first one is up and (as always) Doug gives a masterful presentation of the material covered in our Introductory chapter. The link to watch this video is below:
I have just added Part Two of Dr. McGuff’s lecture on Body By Science in which Doug provides an overview of Chapter One. The central theme being what exactly are “health” and “fitness” and why they are not necessarily intrinsically linked. Here is the link to Part Two:
In this excerpt, Dr. McGuff explores the true nature of cardiovascular exercise during a seminar he gave at a recent book signing. The realities of “anaerobic” and “aerobic” pathways and his concept of “Global Metabolic Conditioning” (the touchstones of Chapter Two) are examined in detail. Here is the link to Part Three:
In this video (taken from a recent lecture Dr. McGuff gave at a book store), Doug speaks about Chapter 3 of our book Body By Science, in which he details the Dose-Response relationship of exercise. Along the way he touches on the content of other chapters such as Enhancing The Body’s Response To Exercise (Chapter 6) and Tweaking The Exercise Stimulus (Chapter 7). Here is the link to this video:
This is a two-part video that contains Dr. McGuff’s presentation of some of the key points of Chapter 9 of Body By Science.

Max Pyramid option number 1 (Shoulder Press). Video by trainer Fred Fornicola.TRAINING THE LOWER BACK
In our book The Body By Science Question & Answer Book Dr. McGuff and I devote a significant section to training and rehabilitating the lower back. As the lower back can prove problematic to some (by some estimates, between 75 and 85% of the population will experience lower back pain at some point in their lives), keeping it strong is very important and can go a long way toward keeping you in the 15 to 25% that do not experience such problems).
Dr. McGuff has put together a two-part video that will help trainees immensely in strengthening this important area of the body. In Part One, Dr. McGuff describes the anatomy of the lower back and what muscle groups we need to focus on with our training. In Part Two, he continues with his presentation, demonstrating three exercises that can be performed to strengthen the lower back for those who do not have access to MedX or Nautilus lower back machines.
