I really love this video. I commented along time ago in one of your videos and told you I wasn’t vegan but I your videos are motivating and positive. Well I made the transition in August and am now Vegan. Thank you for the helpful advice. I am one of those people that’s try’s to hard to focus on protein. I won’t be focusing on that anymore.

@mathilde4699 Год назад

Well done you!!

Okay so this and the alcohol video have completely changed my "I can't do this" mentality. Thank you for making a step in this video "not sitting" because I honestly didn't know how bad it was. Super helpful thank you!!!

@Hambar7 Год назад

Why insane ? I think that if more people were patient and trust the process there would be more naturals looking this way . I personally know one vegan who did the same awesome gains and is also as positive as Derek . So I guess there's something in that 🙃

Great video and information. I enjoyed the sequence about sedentary habits and how to switch things up.

@tylerbarrick749 Год назад

Glad you listed mindset. So many people want to make progress but don’t put in the work. The human body is capable of much more activity and training than we think

@philippem.6032 Год назад

You're hands down the best. Great content and always touching on specific points that are often left out of other common fitness videos.

Spot on Derek. So often people are lost when a trainer, nutritionist or ?? starts talking and 'you' put it into easier to understand words that also makes it motivating. Thank you for all your great content.

Great vid as always!

@lightwarrior3697 Год назад

This is the video I need thank you

@shannonduarte1257 Год назад

Thank Derek. I absolutely love how well rounded and accessible your videos are. It doesn’t matter the variables between all of our levels, your advice hits the same message for everyone. Get out there and move, incorporate consistent movement all the time, eat wholesome plant foods! (People laugh at me at work because I look for excuses to use the 2 levels of stairs we have, they don’t understand why I don’t use the elevator…then I think, Derek would get it 😊)

@jmnt2304 Год назад

This was a much needed video. Today I was thinking about it. Something I will start doing is leaving my phone at home when I go to the gym because I do get distracted by it. Also need to make a workout plan since it will help me be more efficient. Thank you for the quality content.

@obsidiantain Год назад

Great stuff! I’m an endurance athlete and much of this stacks up for running too. Consistency, focus, diet etc. One difference is that it’s important to be mindful of stress load - when I’m running 75km a week, it’s OK to avoid the standing desk :D, but I agree wholeheartedly about not sitting on sofas etc “too” much - kneeling, squats etc on the ground are so much better for us! Thanks for this one!

@geno5169 Год назад

I used to eat Up to 6 to 5 eggs with avocado 🥑 and Greek yogurt.blueberries. I went down to 3 now 2. Eggs!I also bought organic protein powder. Low in carbs. Since I’ve been watching you’re vedio’s! I’ve increased my weight lifting! And yoga

@MsKatastrophenBarbie Год назад

I'm educating myself right now because I can't start a new workout routine being 32 weeks pregnant and stay with swimming and walking the dog for now. Your Videos are so easy to understand!

@BrianTurnerOfficial Год назад

That intro beat was hard haha and Sammy says the vibes are immaculate with the purple lights 🔥🍆 Solid tips, def agree that people often spend too much time on their phones in between sets. I really like to throw “focus mode” on to avoid the temptation to look at my phone

@Simnettnutrition Год назад

Thanks man, putting focus mode on is a great tip!

@jag2333 Год назад

Hi my favorite couple. Thank you for this video 😊❤

@sacroustilleuh Год назад

Hi from France ! Yes I agree, and I can testify about what you say at the end, for 3 months I couldn't workout because of an injury, I had to start from a lower level, very frustrating.. I couldn't be consistent enough for the first weeks and I was postponing a lot, BUT each workout, even some easy sets, made me feel so good. Anyway I knew I really wanted to be in shape again because I love training and I have set some targets.. And after a few months, the more I trained the more i felt good ! Now I am back on tracks ! And I feel way better, more energy, I don't postpone a workout and train 5 times per week ! 💪 the more you train the easiest it is to stick to it rather than start and struggle to be consistent, so you need guys to keep that in mind ^^

@loic3786 Год назад

I forgot I subscribed and seeing the thumbnail in my feed I went like *meh, another omnivorous fitness video, I sure am gonna learn a few things but it'll be based on a nasty lifestyle full of cruelty yadayada* I hit play and man... your videos are just so refreshing...! We can feel by watching that you feel great in your life and that in itself is such a motivation to me as a viewer to hustle at the gym being vegan, gains can seem harder at times (as we see we have to get a bit more technical about our diets) but once it's part of your routine it's easy (and pleasant) as hell and you can just go on enjoying life in good shape Thanks for the video, I appreciate it

@annettegarcia1950 Год назад

I am a big fan but lately I had been feeling like your videos were sooo focused on protein. I see the goal for you but for many of us that aren't necessarily trying to bulk up I was a little 😒 I love the mention of other valuable nutrients such as magnesium for optimum health. I feel you've mentioned it before for sure but this feels balanced. Thanks for all you do and share Derek!

@Simnettnutrition Год назад

Yes newish camera thanks for noticing!

@richmcbride9269 Год назад

Fantastic video as always! I'd love to see more fitness content, e.g. breaking through plateaus would be a great topic.

@travisn346 Год назад

Hey man I found that breaking plateaus often comes down to rest. A week off with a focus on mobility and flexibility can regenerate the nervous system. Possibly look at lowering your rep ranges and focusing only on compound movements for 6 to 8 weeks.

@Simnettnutrition Год назад

I will definitely be sharing more fitness stuff! So much to cover.

@geno5169 Год назад

This is might be the best vedio I saw of yours! I have been having trouble putting on mud on my chest or arms! ! I’ve never seen my abs. lol! I subscribed to yoga with weight lifting ? And I’am so interested on trying this new lifestyle of eating plant based! I’m used to eating eggs and love my burgers and pizza? Should I or do I have to give up everything? I really need help?

@libbymcroberts8734 Год назад

@Simnettnutrition Год назад

Thank you. I appreciate that!

@covingtoncreek Год назад

You are so motivating. Thank you for what you do. I look about what you looked like after a year of calisthenics, but I've been doing calisthenics longer than that. :( And I'm pretty darn skinny but have a stubborn bit of fat lower abdomen that just does not want to go away, if I try to make sure to get enough calories. So I've tried to get enough protein and as low calories as possible but I realize you are against that. It's frustrating. Also I'm over 50 and when I was 20 it was way more easy to gain muscle.

@nicole2521 Год назад

“The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That’s what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they’ll go through the pain no matter what happens.” ~ (Arnold Schwarzenegger)

@crazyratlady3115 Год назад

I've got fibromyalgia after covid and having a bunch of surgeries, and the pain gets so bad that sometimes I need a crutch to get around. I get tired super easily, but I'm trying to stay consistent with even short workouts before and after work, particularly in the morning to loosen things up, in addition to workouts/physical therapy a few times a week. The first few months were hell, 4-5 days of DOMS after every workout, but I kept at it and slowly added more and more activity, baby-stepping into a gentle caloric deficit, and I'm finally starting to see results. It's been a frustrating grind with little pay-off up to now, but the only way out is through.

According to Dr. Michael Greger eating organic can reduce our exposure to pesticides, it is unclear whether such a reduction in exposure is clinically relevant. Since adequate fruit and vegetables intake my outweigh the risks of pesticide exposure. You can read his article on his website or watch the clip on his RU-vid channel.

Is there a path for making gains and shedding fat? Or best to focus on gains and eventually the fat sheds away?

@ngogol1748 Месяц назад

MINDSET: I think the way fitness industry is promoting fitness is mildly responsible for the wrong mindset many people have. You get the wrong impression that a few sets here and there during the week will make you an athletic person. Often people underestimate that the most fun that comes from fitness referes to movement in general. To become a more athletic person first and foremost means to me: starting to enjoy movement on a daily basis, forgetting most of the time about the aims you may have and focus on the delicious momen. It means to listen to your body and see how grateful and happy the body is when you treat it with good food and different types and intensities of motion. Ironically, the best mindset is close to not thinking so much about it anymore and spending most of the time in the movements itself. Become an athletic person truly is a spiritual and holistic experience and I wish more youtubers would talk about it like this. It is not just muscles, endurance etc. that grows, its not your self estime etc. It is about you as a whole person, feeling, loving, moving that grows. This is the ultimate reason why you should do it.
