I once heard from a friend's mom that the worst for you is to be lazy. It really stuck with me and I always try to put the extra work in everything I do 😊
Love this! I’ve definitely been part of the problem with “fit fluencers” I’ve been one of the people peddling the 12 week bs because a guru coach told me I’d get clients that way. Always had a shitty feeling in my stomach. But I’m glad you called me out. I’m more authentic now and won’t ever promise the world to potential clients
Hit where it hurts. The fitness influencers exactly know the insecurities of young boys and girls. Have u ever heard a 30 year old guy buying these shit. It's the 17-18 years teens falling for their traps. Debunk more such shit man. Great work. 😅👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@jaghad Agreed - me and the younger lads at work have a lot more understanding of how to train, eat etc. whereas the older fellas still believe a lot of old school fitness myths. I think it's just down to there being more info more widely available now. Younger ppl grew up with the likes of Layne, whereas the older guys just had the muscle mags and the bodybuilding VHSes
@@jaghad +1; a big target audience for fat burners and other b.s. is middle aged men who want to recapture the body of their youth. I'm saying this as a man approaching middle age who, without people like Layne, would be fooled by all the "shortcuts" and waste my money. Instead, folks like Layne, Alan Thrall, Barbell Medicine and others put out solid education and applicable knowledge.
@@Abc-cp8me apropos name for such a ridiculous statement. Advertising is literally designed to subvert skepticism and prey on insecurities and hope. But I'm sure you're immune to those effects.
I really like the statement at 12:13. Thanks for the content! Reese’s cups are a triggering candy for me....I have to keep it out of my house currently, to make it a little harder to eat.
I often get "how can you eat so much and be that skinny, it's not fair." People around me often don't even know what a calorie is, once explained and asked to guess (compare products) they're so off. Even those who do often count recipes off by 2-5x... I suspect some even use cups (very uncommon here) just to avoid seeing the weight in case they see the nutrition label... Then the out part, oof. I can't sit without pain so it's common for my watch to log between 600-1000 non-exercise calories, because I walk, I pace, I cycle (driving = sitting) etc. I don't know what it'd say for a couch potato though. I actually struggle eating up against it, more weight I lose, the easier movement becomes, my condition improved, my speed.. I have to adjust my diet again, but it's much easier now my body learned to deal with healthy fats, last resort is just drinking the calories. (I grew up on a very distorted diet, my parents are 200kg :'') forced me to eat like them, yet never a healthy fat in sight... they saturated it all by using the wrong oils at too high heat. Had low-fat alternatives for any healthy fats, limited eggs, salmon etc. since bad for you. :'') Idiots.) However I swear I could cook for all my obese friends, volume-eating style, and they'd have a Will/Greg challenge experience trying to avoid losing weight but they refuse to take me up on the challenge. :'')
There's never been a magic pill. All it takes is hard work, patience, and consistency. Layne is absolutely right, people are fucking lazy. That's why I don't work for most people in general because they simply do not deserve it. Raise your own standard and bar and dominate them all.
🙌🙌💯💯so good. Ya those waist trainers are the worst thing for women, and it’s brutal for the pelvic floor and FYI pelvic floor reconstruction is no joke 🤕
Layne, your nutrition app is amazing, as is your book "fat loss forever," and your content is so valuable. thanks so much for what you do. i learn a ton.
Hi Layne, Awesome video! Loved the Halloween theme! 😂 you'd definitely make a good, buff Dracula! 😂 Thank you for debunking those 5 bullshit fitness fads, it's really tragic that's there are people out there who fall for that shit! Big thank you for making the video. Cheers, Billy
Hey Brother. Can you make a video and explain if ibuprofen and paracetamol negatively affect protein synthesis after workout? We all suffer from aches after training and we all take these pain killers.
Oh I'd be interested in this, I avoid any pain-medication for personal reasons so I had no idea they affected protein synthesis at all. Gonna google around a bit. Have my upvote.
@@esmee6308 yeah i did some research on that and some conflicting studies. One study says both painkillers hinder the protein synthesis. So I stopped taking but then i go to bed with some pain and i cant sleep properly.
@@cinargey6873 Sleep is incredibly vital for recovery and thus muscle building, so if studies are conflicting I'd place my bets on getting enough quality sleep personally. Or maybe see if you can prevent some of the pain by pushing yourself a little less hard? (I'd ignore this advice too, it's half of the fun. :'') ) Ironically due to my chronic pain (which not even a morphine drip can block out enough for a proper night sleep) training helps me sleep better since I'm relaxed and exhausted and I don't perceive DOMs as painful, just a weird tugging, even if not it's kinda like this pain I chose, it feels empowering if that makes sense.
I think the desire to mess around with synthol is less about laziness and more the result of serious psychological problems. Regardless, I enjoyed your "scary" persona. It brought back memories of old SCTV skits with "Count Floyd". 😅🧛♂️
Here's a claim I heard. "Chlorella binds to heavy metals in the body, and thus makes it possible to excrete them in your sweat or urine." Anyone can substantiate this?
the only real question is why is someone ingesting heavy metals? secondly, how? especially when paint and petrol don't have lead anymore, and most thermometers are digital not mercury.
Henrik Bengtsson yes there is mercury in sea-caught fish. WHO has recommendations regarding consumption (no more than one meal per week or something). I guess it depends on your heavy metal preference. 10 cans of tuna per week for 40 years or 10 cans of 40 year old paint in a week. But yeah it’s not considered toxic at low levels.
You are definitely progressively overloading your video editing level :) Greg D. always says about this research with steroids and that is was useless because they measured gains using DEXA - it recognise water gains as muscle gains. As we know, when you take steroids, you have some significant water retention - that's why study showed gaining weight not exercising, only by the steroids. I really don't think you can simply inject something, not to do anything and miraculous grow muscles
FWIW I'm absolutely not against using steroids, but I don't think there's anything to gain by disputing that they do cause muscle growth without training. There's a study out there looking at transgender men (which is a useful model, since you're esentially going from 0 testosterone to the normal 500-1000ng/dl range) and they gained 10% overall lean mass while losing 10% total body fat over 1 year. A meta-analysis showed ~+4kg LBM and -2.6kg fat. Theres another one out there that measured muscle cross-sectional area and saw notable increases as well. None of those involved any kind of structured exercise program, so essentially it just reflects what happens to an average sedentary person when you massively ramp up their testosterone. What I do think is interesting is that these studies DON'T see particularly notable changes in strength, whereas anyone who's on gear and trains can tell you certain compounds + training can make you crazy strong.
Hahaha I thoroughly enjoy this video! great concept, love the haunting theme and awesome topics that definitely needed a reminder why they should die once and for all ☠️🧛🏋️🎃
Greg Douchette always talks about that steroids study and tries to say it’s wrong and that if you take steroids and don’t work out you won’t gain any muscle. He tries to downplay how much bodybuilder’s physiques are attributed to drugs. I’ve seen guys who take roids and work out hard and get super jacked. Then they get off the drugs, sometimes for health reasons, continue to work out just as hard (if not harder) as they ever did and months later they almost don’t even look like they lift bro. 😂
But I thought consumers were rational beings who carefully weigh costs and benefits before buyimg something? If the market allocates ressources to those people, they must clearly be doing it right.
Wow i wouldn't have expected Layne to spew the misinformation about the steroid study. The steroids and no training group put on more weight not muscle.
But..why do bikinia olympia athletics wear waist trainers coach adam says it's so when we lift heavy weights it's like wearing a lifting belt to keep your core from getting thicc when lifting heavy weights is that true? Is that something different bkkkkkkkj he eye 👀👀👀👀👀@caaa
Loved this! One question though, waist trainers have become super popular amongst bikini athletes - I assume the argument is the same re: possibility of moving organs? thanks so much!
Great content Layne as always. I love the Carbon app as well. Just out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on Renaissance Periodization with Dr. Mike Israetel?
Hmmm - would an actual vampire try to drink some blood that turned out to need "detoxifying" and spit it out like the guy in the old Corbel champagne commercial?
