The guest for this episode was Michael Easter. He is a health and fitness writer and professor. He has also authored several books on the subjects, with his latest release being, “Scarcity Brain: Fix Your Craving Mindset & Rewire Your Mindset to Thrive with Enough”. The conversation topics ranged from fitness routines, diets, professional athletes, and much more.
Easter also asked Rogan about his training and particularly his experiences with rucking as a form of working out. Rogan responded by stating, “Well, anything where you are carrying weight, and one of the things I did quite a bit is a 30% incline on a high-quality treadmill, and I put on a weight vest. And just watch a movie and grind.”
Rogan also delved into his specific workout routines, including his use of Tabatas – 20-second sprints with 10-second rests repeated eight times – on the Echo bike as part of his workouts. He also described his daily warm-up routine. According to Rogan, “So I start off every workout with a cold plunge, I do a cold plunge for 3 minutes then I do my series of bodyweight exercises to warm myself up. Every day I do a hundred pushups and a hundred bodyweight squats. On a slantboard. So I do those and by that time I’m warmed up”
Additionally, Rogan outlined his kettlebell routines and a series of bodyweight exercises that involve 10 chin-ups, 20 dips, and 10 L-pull-ups, emphasizing the demanding nature of his training. He completes sets of 10 repetitions for each exercise in a circuit of five, resulting in an astonishing total of 50 chin-ups, 100 dips, and 50 pull-ups!
Rogan and his inspiring dedication to training
This superhuman level of training is probably why Rogan is in better shape than 90% of people his age. And as he noted in the episode, he doesn’t aim to slow down anytime soon! It also reflects his background as a combat sports athlete as most of his workouts aren’t focused on gaining size but on maintaining strength, conditioning, and explosive power.
Rogan in his youth was a National Taekwondo champion, with one video of him knocking out his opponent with a spinning backkick still available online! He then transitioned to kickboxing but quit the sport due to the consequences of head trauma. Nevertheless, he is still sharp and fast. As evidenced by his setting the PowerKube kicking record at the UFC PI. He was also approached by Georges St. Pierre to learn Rogan’s signature turning-back kick which according to ‘Rush’ is the best he’s ever seen!
