The One Hour Morning Routine 

Frank: Drink coffee in your quick 1 hour routine Poop: I'm about to mess up this man's whole world

Still chocked by the existence of hard boiled pre peeled eggs in a bag.

I’ve been watching Thomas for YEARS and this is honestly one of the most beautifully made and produced videos ever. Thank you for all the content, keep it up!!

“6. Sunlight Exposure” *cries in Alaskan*

So much effort was put into this and it really shows. Awesome video!

It’s quite impratical to exercise after a shower: What about sweating in your clean clothings?

Your videos are so high quality that I almost feel like I'm illegally streaming a professional show for free

A short recap for y'all: 1. Nutrition 2. Hydration 3. Exercise 4. Hygiene 5. Learning 6. Sunlight

“Get out of bed the moment your alarm goes off “ _ait imma head out_

Oh my god! This video is phenomenal! The transitions, the angles, the refreshing and realistic take on a potentially saturated online topic. Absolutely stunning! Thank you(and your team of course) for the video!

0:50 - What makes a good morning routine 1:23 - Wake Up 1:35 - Hygine 2:01 - Hydration 2:20 - Coffee 2:35 - Light Exercise 2:47 - Breakfast 3:22 - Combine eating with learning 3:42 - Sunlight Exposure I'd suggest doing exercise before showering, and you can go for a run outside to combine sunlight with exercise.

For hydration, I always keep my water bottle filled on my nightstand, and the first thing i do is drink at least half of that water. it helps me wake up better than coffee ever did

THIS is the level: Matt D'Avella

Takes 8 minutes to do hygiene *BOY I TAKE AT LEAST 20 MINUTES!!*

I'm a very busy student girl and here is my morning routine: - 10 min yoga + 5 min meditation - 20min for hygiene (toilets, clothes, brushing teeth, washing face, applying make up) - 10 min meal prep - 15 min having breakfast while reading And there you go! An hour completed! I always go to school on foot, so I have my sunlight exposure. I do sport and shower at night, also.

Shower, put fresh clothes on, get really sweaty doing push-ups

This is your best video so far Tom! The production and editing is Genius.. I love the way you bring us back to your usual set up at the end 🤩 great Job!!

Reading and meditation after waking up: the best way to fall asleep again 😂

“Get Sunlight Exposure” The sun doesn’t come up until 7am where I live, I wake up at 5am

A 4 minute shower??? Whaaaat? Washing my hair alone takes at LEAST 5-6 min.

my eyes are happy. Incredible work on the editing or whatever this masterpiece is called

This is honestly an amazing guide on a morning routine. I will be using this after I'm not sick, because my morning routine consists of: 1. waking up 2. hating the fact that I woke up because I can feel all the pain in my body 3. laying there for 30 minutes 4. getting up and doing my hygiene really slowly with no sudden movements 5. getting dressed 6. leaving for school Pretty terrible.

A minute in and I just want to express that gOD I absolutely love the camerawork in this one, the quality of your videos just keep going up God bless from the Philippines ♡

thomas: takes 10 mins in the bathroom my skincare and makeup routine: *am i a joke to you*

Now we need the full hour

COMPREHENSIVE SUMMARY -for all those who want to implement this routine. 1:24 get up as soon as the alarm goes off. [30s] 1:33 once you're up, do all your basic personal hygiene (brush, shave, shower), lay out all your clothes in advance, get dressed. [15m] 2:08 right after shower, drink water. water any plants if any. [2-3m] 2:20 make coffee. suggested method -'drips'. [5m] 2:32 simultaneously get some exercise in (pull-ups, crunches, push-ups) 2:48 breakfast prep. suggested - toast, boiled eggs, smoothie [6-8m] -also grab that coffee now. 3:22 bundle nutrition with learning. learn/read while eating breakfast. including cleanup should take-[~15m] (personally, I prefer watching productivity videos in the morning, and planning out the day ) 3:44 sunlight exposure. this can be taken care of in your commute as well. if the weather is too bad. use the extra time for some more learning. [remaining time] 4:23 pack up your things. and head out. [5-10m before you leave] Thomas also suggests that if you want you can skip breakfast (intermittent fasting). although I would never do that! also watching videos while breakfast is also great. really just experiment with the routine to suit your needs. possible limitations: -if you're in a shared household, might add complications, as you might have a bathroom occupied or someone else making breakfast. -might want to leave some buffer time, in case well i don't know, maybe last night's dinner was really heavy or something. i'd say use the routine as a framework. and edit to suit your circumstances.

Him: *takes like 5 minutes for hygiene and such* Me: *Cries in girl* Edit: Wow over 900 likes!? I've never gotten so many!

Loving the video format Thomas, so freakin goooood! And obviously the video content, definitely trying the routine.

It looks like a routine that is "stressful hurry". Moment I will step out of home I will be in hurry, I need peace in the morning.

I normally don't comment, but I have to take note of the amazing amount of effort put into the production of this video. Insane stuff man, keep it up!

That looks like a reaaally comfy cardigan. also, your best editing so far!

Finally a realistic morning routine that is actually doable. As always on point Thomas 👌 Love from Romania ❤️

Wow, this video is so different from the others in such a subtle way. So nice editing, pasing and ... I don't know... Good job Thomas, this is an extremely well produced video.

Thomas: "Maybe you're watching this very video while you eat breakfast." Me: *Eating my breakfast* O.O

Thomas, In recent months the quality of your videos was constantly improving. But this one, this is absolutely phenomenal! The transitions, the editing, the quality of image and all the scenes. Simply a pleasure to watch!

I've been watching your videos for y e a r s, and I'd just like to say I'm so impressed by the effort and thought you've invested into making your videos! The content is consumable, significant and important, and the actual videos themselves are enjoyable in their own right. The transitions, camera quality, length... idk man you've really mastered what you're doing and i'm really proud/ impressed. keep it up, can't wait to see what you do next :)

I always make my boyfriend prepare for early mornings the night before. He was so annoyed with me at first but it’s really contributing to his overall happiness by making him less stressed in the morning and his mood is much better meaning more affection for me 😂 it’s a win-win

Ah I see you were hanging out with Matt D.

So yes I am a little late to the party coz RU-vid put this video in front of me this morning instead of a year ago 🤷🏾‍♀️ Great content thanks. I do enjoy watching them. May l suggest a few tweaks to the routine? 1) lay everything you need in the morning out the night before , including the breakfast things. 2) Exercise before having a shower so that you can be as vigorous as you like without worry about getting sweaty, if it's nice out, tick off the sunshine and fresh air box by working out outside. 3) Hydrate yourself, immediately after exercise as you have probably been sweating. And while you are in the kitchen , 4) put the kettle or coffee on before you head for the shower because when you get out, you are not wasting precious time

When I first started being self employed and working at home, I tried to incorporate ALL of the most popular morning routine steps. No matter how fast I moved it ended up taking 4+ hours everyday. Glad to see a more practical option!

TF: “I don’t like sitting through ads.” TF: *queues ad Lol

I am also obsessed with routines and I also only have an hour to get to work. That's right from bed to work in 1 hour! 0400: Wake up, drink water and make bed 0405: Hot orange shower with a brief minute of cold 0415: Make my superfood and collagen protein shake get dressed 0420: Grab my meal prepped lunch and breakfast from the night before. I don't have any time to eat except during my drive to work. 0425: Lock up and throw my stuff in the car and take a quick 2 minute jog to the gym at the appartment and do what I call "Basic5": Pushups, situps, jumping jacks, pullups and squats. 20 seconds of work with 10 seconds of rest. 1 set is 2:30 minutes. This is only to gently warm up my heart and encourage more vigorous blood flow and breathing. 0435 Drive to work and eat my breakfast while I listen to motivational speakers who preach about God. 0450: Dash into work and clock in 0500: Go time! I had found as I have added and taken away from some things and it HAS been stressful that I need a little more time. Tonights wake up is 0345 because I needed more time to wake up so I can do more cardio. Also I personally don't like having caffeine within the first hour or 2 of waking up because I want my body to naturally wake me up on it's own ability before I externally force it to and because I am not interested in being an addict again. Love caffeine but I know my body and we say nope to the wake up cup of joe. Love your stuff Thomas!

Hey Thomas you’re my favourite “productivity” RU-vidr and probably the only one I can stand. You really seem legitimately passionate about how you spend your time and enjoying it not just feeling like you have to be a slave to “self improvement” in extreme forms as some other RU-vidrs do. For example I have seen a popular video about how this guy doesn’t eat anything, talk to anyone, or basically do any tasks for 24 hours to “reset”. Questionable

Love this simple video but so much effort to make and edit. Wow, love it! Simple and the best.

This has to be one of your best video you've ever made

"sunlight exposure" Me, a Brazilian: ha, I don't even have to move

This is a great routine and can easily be rearranged as needed! I have actually been doing all of these daily in the morning but not in any specific order. I'm looking forward to adding them as a structure routine in the morning as followed: Exercise, Hydrate (drink @ the gym), Nutrition (get home drink / eat protein filled breakfast), Hygiene (clean up post-gym), Learning (quick book or news articles), and then start my day with Sunlight (off to work)!

This video is definitely one of the greatest videos you ever made when it comes to production value. Transitions are smooth and really help with sending a message about not having enough time in the morning.

I never thought of boiling eggs and leaving them in the fridge. This is a game-changer for me.

The way you pronunce „kurz gesagt“ 😂

Thomas frank is the only youtuber i cant skip for a second, all of his seconds are high value and his videos are with so much effort that i cant considerate it time wated

Awesome video, can't imagine how much effort it took but your production level just hit another level.

If you wear makeup, then your whole hour is ruined lmaoo.

You've been having too much fun filming, haven't you? This is your best video by far

Man i wish i could have an hour long morning routine, if not a 4 hour full routine.. but i find that even 6 categories are too much for me, so i decided to focus on 3 general things in the morning: 1. Body.(cleaning, hydrating, moving) 2. Mind (goals, intentions for the day, writing or meditation) 3. Surroundings (make bed, tidy room, get ready) It makes it way simpler that way when each step i just have to ask myself: "body: what does my body need?" "mind: what does my mind need?" " surroundings: what do i want to be done for the day?" Really great video though! Nice :)

from the boy in college -> now the man after college. HUGE leap if you guys go back 2 years ago. Trust the process guys. Thomas is the offspring of that.

"Sunlight exposure" but what if there isn't sunlight for 4 months like in Finland 😅

For all of that as a girl with make up, shaving and hair I need at least 90-120min with breakfast (slow eater).

Loving the new video style my man!

LOVE this new filming style. Matt's tips are paying off. (;

This clearly applies for a GUY'S morning routine , no girl will get a shower in 4 minutes 😂😂😂 I think the hour morning routine is still achievable if I prepare everything the night before, don't have breakfast and rush everything else 🤣

The editing on this is amazing. How is this even possible lol.

Your editing and filiming has come such a long way over the year. I usally don't comment, but man keep up the amazing work!!! This just looked dope and I saved it for a rewatch! 🙌

My 2 hour routine checks all your list, with more calm and composed manner. The mindset I require, for studying hard.

The sun comes out at like 9:30 in the morning in the winter for me...

Omg the best😍

I did this for 21 days....my life is changing.... Thanks man

Being a night owl who sleeps at 2 a.m usually you really made me feel that being a morning person is practical and quite nice too. MIGHT try these out. Wish me good luck haha

I'm from Germany and I love the way u pronounce "Kurz gesagt" XD

An hour maybe for men, for women it's out of the question! I couldn't get ready in an hour even if I skipped breakfast and my workout routine 😜

This is by far in your top 3 best videos. Internalising these rutines and ideas will bring changes to a lot of peoples day to day life.

The production level is insanely magnificent. Kudos to the hardwork and proficiency.

Love the Eames chair! Is that an actual Eames or one of the reproductions? curious the quality on some of the reproduction ones.

Morning productivity routine [41 minutes] (with some modifications) : - Hygiene [ 15 minutes ] - Wake up sharp at alarm. Brush shave bath etc - Hydration [1 minute] - Drink a glass of water - Exercise [ 10 minutes ] - Light exercise - A quick run around the house - Nutrition [5 minutes + 5 minutes] - Oats/Cereals, Milk, Coffee or tea - While above is brewing do Learning - Focus fully on food while eating for 5minutes - Learning [5minutes] - Read some pages - Sunlight [~ minutes] - Go out again and enjoy the warm sun :)

Editing wise this is your best video mate loved it

This video is incredible. You are saving time in a wonderful way. I hope I could do that. You are fast. Taking a shower, brushing my teeth and wearing my clothes take more than half an hour. Really, I can do all things but in a longer time nearly two hours or more. I don't like reading in the morning . I prefer in the evening because it makes me calm. I like your channel and its content is very good. Thanks a lot. 👍👍

I see that you’ve taken some video tips from Matt D’avella 😉

Gurl, some entrepreneurs wear make-up and have to spend at least 15 minutes on that alone 💁‍♀️

I love watching morning routines. But I'm glad you also noticed most people just take way more time than most people have available. Love the video.

Love these seamless transitions man!

Bruh, I wake up at 4 AM every morning it's still dark outside

Editor: How many camera angles do you wan- Thomas: Yes

I’m liking the new style of this video Thomas! Keep them coming!

Day by day you are pushing great content. Please make a video on your daily planning and procrastination.

Visit Greece 🇬🇷!!!

I lost hope when you said "throw yourself out of bed in 30 seconds"

Beautifully created video with a clear message of how and what to develop for a morning routine. Also, Thomas enjoy your Colorado weather :) Vermont is about to get some snow as well.

Following your morning routine made me more productive and coped well with the pandemic. Thank you so much.

"breakfast is the most important meal of the day" used by cereal companies for advertisements

Me at Thomas shirtless: 😍 (I'm sorry, I just had to. 😂)

I made a similiar rutine almost without seeing this video, the key to acomplish this, was to take an hour for my self, so if something go wrong on the day, i dont care, there is something i can always control. Love your vids Thomas, keep going like that !

Thank you so much for your videos Thomas, I appreciate all of them but this one takes the cake! These are all the kinds of things I try to do every morning before starting my day, and this video is inspiring being able to capture it all in a nice kind of atmospheric way. I watched it yesterday, but then played it alongside my own morning routine today and it really helped my motivation to get out of bed (from snuggling a cute lil puppy) and start the day. thanks again so much! So appreciative in the work you put in.

Guys, every "morning plan" goes in drain in if you have a girlfriend/wife.

loving the new style of video making ♥♥

First off, I stopped this video midway just to start this comment that I agree the quality, angles, and transitions are WILD. Amazing job!!! Incredibly engaging, great background music, that living room chair looks bomb and comfortable af. Such a pleasure to watch your expertise in filmmaking grow over the years! Morning routines have to be flexible, and I think people try and cram too much. Some days I have time to go to the gym or read or go all out, other days I have just enough time to eat and get ready, it's all a balance.

I watch all of your videos even sometimes I watch them multiple times. Thanks a lot for sharing these great tips. I'm so glad that you launched your own thing 🙌🔥

I hate how long my hair and makeup takes. I shower at night so I skip blowdrying in the morning, but flat ironing and doing my makeup still takes 15-20 minutes total, bringing my morning routine to 1h30m including a sit-down breakfast and coffee. Side note, the production quality on this video was insane, absolutely loved every second of it!

your editing is incredible man I love it
