2:01 I’m 6’ 1” and I’ve yet to see any workout programs aimed at taller women when we obviously need to train differently since we’re so massive and gigantic and we need to be strong dealing to handle the unbearable weight of our massive limbs!! When will someone cater to my unique needs?!?!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Me too. Tall women unite! On a serious note, very best workout for my massive body besides strength training, by a long shot, is rowing.
Ladies, we clearly need to make a tall women only workout. We’ll put all the weights on a high shelf 😂
I'm flashing back to that 70's show, when Donna would be amazed by her "giant hands" when she was high.
Me too
I taught Pilates for a number of years. It's not bootcamp. You're probably not going to sweat and want to pass out. If you stick with it you WILL strengthen your core. As a result, you may find yourself standing taller and moving more easily. I personally became a lot stronger and looked pretty muscular.
People expecting a boot camp experience from Pilates are wild, but that doesn't mean Pilates isn't an effective workout.
YES!
It ks a bootcamp for me bc this shit is hard like crazy. Harder than anything I've done before
;)
Of course you are right
When she said "diabetes doesnt run in the family," i fully wanted her to say "satan does!"
hahahahaha
Well it doesn't a bad lifestyle does , anyone who don't care for themselves can get diabetes even the most skinnier person, no excuses
I'm scared of the devil lady. I am still waiting on my meal plan from the Lord.
hahahahaha
😂😂😂😂
Hello Fresh, Goodbye Satan.
@@KaiOpaka😂😂😂😂
It’s so funny when girls talk about “training petite!” as if male body builders aren’t trending 5’5”. 🤣
hahahahahhaah i love this
PLEASE internet, STOP using the words toned and snatched when talking about a changing body. It drives me insane!! Love your honesty Justina.❤❤❤
love having you here anne!
Hello cirque du soleil😅
Same here!! I can't stand it when they say "snatched", lol... Just... WHY 😂
Sayings the words of truth!
What’s the issue
Let's also talk about the fact that new mothers are exhausted, sometimes struggling to feed their babies, and here in the US, are lacking support in basically all areas of motherhood.
THIS RIGHT HERE
Mothers, caregivers and teachers are the most undervalued jobs in the US. And then we wonder why K-12 children rank the lowest in math and reading out of all developed economies. Maybe if we prioritized our future workforce instead of fighting other countries wars, we’d be a stronger nation
Also found in the Bible.: “Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to you.” (Genesis 9:3)
I'm convinced some people just cherry pick information to serve their own personal agenda lol
@@JustinaErcole people have been cherry picking from the Bible for ages now just because they want to seem like they know stuff when they don’t
I should have scrolled before I made my comment cause then outside of genesis we are given the animals, birds and fish to eat and the ones we aren't supposed to. I can't with the cherry pickers🙄.
I was gonna say this lol
Looking forward to your video about 'skinnyfat', it confuses the hell out of me! Thank you for demystifying all of these crazy and misleading concepts, we need more voices like yours to educate and entertain 🙌
(That visual of you burning in hell made me snort 😂)
Hahahahaah I really made myself laugh there too
the content creator who equated any food outside of fruits and vegetables to food created by the devil was actually terrifying. not everyone needs a platform. her audience probably heavily agrees as well. just scary.
it's definitely scary!
I just want to know how she spins Jesus feeding the masses fish and bread / ooops
@@smbarz82 i completely forgot about the bread, but my mind immediately went to the fish as i was hearing her speak lol
It had 50k likes 💀
Who said this?!!!
We love a queen who dismantles predatory and harmful information! Regarding the lady who thinks the literal devil is manipulating Christians through food and somehow the literal god of the universe wants us to eat a specific way, mainly raw vegan... I'll forever be impressed by people's ability to use their religious text to prop up the convictions that they already hold. Also, it's incredibly funny (or maybe concerning?!) to think that other types of Christians (from other parts of the world or denominations or political affiliations) would also use the Bible to justify the eating of a meat-centric diet. Let's not muddle nutrition science with faith, people, please.
yes 100%!
To just completely forget about the fish & bread loaves story, one of the most famous stories in the most famous book in the world, is WIIIIIIILLLLDD 🤣 literal 6 year olds could outthink this lady lol
I'm always terrified by some christian people who seem to talk just about the devil 24/7. Why not talk about love, compassion and wisdom (I know some christians that do this way and they really inspires me, although I'm not christian myself)?
Another problem with that lady is that she demonizes some kinds of food. It's how some eating disorders take place, isn't?
It's so sad this kind of message she spreads
100%!
omg, i love your fitness tiktok reviews! i was incredibly sad yesterday when Natacha Oceane announced she was leaving youtube… but watching educated people calling out these influencers’ bullshit always brings me joy, and also hope for the fitness community in general ❤
oh i saw that! such a shame but i hope she's on to bigger and better things :)
Finally, someone calls Jo out on her bs. I used to love her when her channel was still small, but over the years her marketing got increasingly more predatory.
Yes! And look, I think overall she’s a net positive because she (I think) means well and gets SO MANY PEOPLE moving. But the fact that she gets this feedback and doesn’t change is problematic. Especially when there’s so many amazing coaches out there who don’t do this crap.
Yasss!! Thank you! Her form is sloppy, and someone is going to get hurt.
Agreed! I give Jo a wide berth these days, and I can't be doing with the sugar-coated, heavily promoted marketing BS.
I used to watch her walking stuff. But none of her new things.
She appears bubbly and positive.
For me it’s so important to focus on workouts for health improvement rather than calories burned because I might be able to fit in 15-20 minutes of cardio at the end of my strength workout and if all I cared about was calories burned that would never be worth it but those bits build up over the week to add 1-1.5 hours of cardio that I would otherwise just skip. That amount of cardio (especially if it’s on the more challenging side) is getting me most of the way to the recommended amount for the week
THIS!
I want to start cooperate Cardio after a strenght workout too ( if it not a cardio day) because I need it and even I'm so confused bc you should do it seperatly I don't have the time. And if I folllw a program on UA-cam they are mostly strenght base and often 5 workouts a week without cardio. That doesn't work for me unfortunately. So I think adding a little cardio wouldn't be so bad
Thank you for putting it into this perspective for me. I am still working to dismantle my dependence on cardio for burning calories rather than heart and lung health and as dumb as it sounds, I didn’t see the benefit of just 15 minutes a day because it “doesn’t burn enough calories” as an intense 45 minute session. Thank you for explaining how those 15 minutes a day add up over the week. That’s such an obvious thing once said but my restrictive brain didn’t see it that way before.
The only part I’m still struggling with is the idea that doing cardio right after strength “defeats the purpose of gaining muscle” during the strength session. If anyone has any words of wisdom, I’m all ears!
I CANNOT with the word "snatched". It's like "moist" for me.
Hahahaha yes!
Snatched is only appropriate when it's used in a sentence like this: "Holly snatched the piece of chocolate out of her dog's mouth just in time."
As for moist, it doesn't bother me as much, but I use the term "moist towelette" just about daily. I use them for everything, so it makes sense.
But I don't even know what a "snatched" body is. Were they kidnapped?
Omg the Bible lady- I’m dead 😂. I thought I’d seen everything at this point. How is that real?!
My thoughts exactly lol
@@JustinaErcole Made me think of Gwen Shamblin using scripture to give her congregation anorexia. Big yikes.
I felt the same way about the growithjo clip. I don't like predatory fitness marketing at all, especially towards mothers.
it's a sneaky one!
I'm actually very dissapointed in her! In the beginning, there was so much potential: 'Hey, let's walk on a fun beat together!' but than the kcal in the thumbnails came, and it all went downhill from there :s
The fire after “I didn’t keep up with it.” 🤣🤣
i'm so glad like 2 of you found that funny because i was giggling while editing lol
@@JustinaErcoleI found it funny AF and I also went to catholic 😂
The Bible is a book with wisdom not a dietary or recipe book so reading like that is odd. I would not read a math textbook looking for the news. I did agree with what she said about familial food values and behavior being a struggle to overcome.
For sure!
To be fair - there most definitely are some dietary laws in the Bible (not supposed to eat shrimp) But that’s because it was supposed to be a general life guide or whatever for people way back then. We don’t need a lot of it now but nowhere does it say “no animal products” lol
As someone who used to be in sales, trust me when i say that "creating a problem that doesn't exist" is exactly how you get someone to buy something they dont need 😂
I always enjoy internet videos!
Also, my anxiety has been flipping out because I'm not doing "the best" workouts, but I AM doing a good job of tracking food and my primary goal at present is weight loss, so it's always nice to hear someone say that it's the nutrition that matters
Morgan you’re doing GREAT! Any workout is better than none ❤️
It’s always 80% food and 20% exercise
I love the variety of content you provide: from more in-depth researched topics to battling misinformation as well as your workouts. It's all fab 💪🏻👌🏻💜
Glad you like them!
the only way that i can see some validity in the whole "short people needing to tailor their workouts to their shortness" is if they're talking about how to make adjustments/substitutions for certain exercises or machine because sometimes it IS a problem (i can't use the Linear Hack Squat by Hammer Strength properly, for example). but i know damn that that's not what they mean.
Ooh wait yes this is solid advice! But you’re right, I have a feeling this isn’t what they mean.
At about 12-13 minutes in - I thought about standing up and applauding you!
awww thank you!
I activated my parasympathetic nervous system too hard and instead of losing inches off my stomach, I lost inches off my height so now I'm a petite girlie that needs a special workout plan :(
(this is satire lol)
hahahahahha
Hate when this happens I was already super short and lifting weights and eating an abundance of chia seeds has made me the height of a barbie doll 😢😢
Pilates is a form of controlled stretching - my body feels so much better doing it because of working on the muscles we don't use everyday. But it's also not a cardio or weightlifting workout and I really don't like that internet workout culture has it made out to be some sort of magical thing. Both Mr and Mrs Pilates worked with dancers (so a lot of workout) and veterans for rehabilitation, not on mad ab gains.
glad you found something you enjoy!
Absolutely!
As for the woman with the baby. My first thought is where did the baby go and shouldn’t you look after it and make sure it is okay? The experience for most mothers will be that it is almost impossible to do any significant exercise program when the kids are around and nobody to help or look after them. Help which the person probably but may or may not disclose. Just creates unrealistic expectations for newly mothers and frustration for current mothers if they cannot do the exercise because they have to take care of their family.
Full transparency, I use the word “Toning” in my social media, I don’t enjoy it, and I always push that toning is just building muscle than losing fat, but it’s a word that a lot of my audience understands…. so for lack of a better term I use it! Even if I really don’t enjoy it, and I make a point to teach whoever I speak with about it that it really just means to build muscle, then to lose fat afterwards.
As someone who has an advanced degree in theology, kindly disregard that tiktok that tells you that God wants you to be a raw vegan...eat your cheese to the glory of God, friends.
CHEESE FOR GOD EVERYONE!
Halleluiah!
You get a piece a cheese, Justina gets a piece of cheese, EVERYONE GETS A PIECE OF CHEESE ! 🧀
Not to mention the promise of milk and honey in the promised land…the quail He literally sent to the Israelites to eat in the desert…lamb that Jesus would have ate at Passover… eat and drink to the glory of God, friends!
I am a Christian, and I can reference many verses regarding food. I do not agree that God made us to eat a raw vegan diet. She definitely does not speak for all of us
I clicked on the video the moment I saw it on my feed! Love this format, also your humour and integrity!
Wow, thank you!
I'd like to see more of these. I found your channel about a week ago and have been binge watching it. I've been working on losing weight for over a year and these videos help me stay focused. I'm 17lbs away from a healthy BMI, for the first time in 10 years! (That's when I started medications that made me gain tons of weight and caused metabolic syndrome.)
Keep at it! 💪🏻
Ooo I really would like a video on your thoughts about “skinny fat” :D
Coming next month!
oh wow I'm early! Yes, please make a video about skinny-fat. I used to have an eating disorder and at my lowest weight, I was 5kg away from being underweight but I wasn't skinny skinny. I was thin (although I didn't view myself like that) but I still hat visible fat because I probably didn't have a good muscle mass. I also probably lost some of that during the whole experience.
BTW the only reason why I could understand someone differentiating between short and tall people is because tall people usually have a higher TDEE which might make it easier to cut back on calories. According to an online calculator, I'd need to be at 1500 calories and under (on an active day) to lose weight while my dad gets a lot more. I know TDEE has a lot more factors than height and I'm in no way defending the claims. What I will say is that some people say "oh 1200 calories is barely enough for a toddler!" even though some people are petite and sedentary.
I'm actually discussing that topic in an upcoming video so stay tuned!
The petit workouts thing is wild. Like there are things to know about how form can differ and still be normal for different bodies depending on proportions. And there are tips and such to make equipment more accessible in the gym if it doesn’t work for your size. Like the example you mentioned. Or for really tall people realizing you don’t have to deadlift from the floor is the radius of a standard plate doesn’t work for you. Like yeah, there are lots of nuances with different heights and proportions. But it doesn’t change the basics of a calorie deficit or anything she was trying to allude to.
Yes!!
Ooh another example! Turn the trap bar upside down if you’re short and want more ROM :)
@@JustinaErcole Exactly! I’ve seen a FEW (emphasis very few…) reels with tips of this sort for the gym and I’m like “omg, something actually useful and practical for some people!”
@@violettefemme21 I love short girl hacks for making equipment easier to use / more accessible cos my short limbs cannot !!
I would never ever buy anything from anyone who uses the term skinny fat (let alone posing it as an issue that needs fixing). I cannot wait for your video on it!!!
Coming next month!
Also as a 5'1'' I cannot reach the barbell safety thingys as all the tall people put them too high on the rack 🙄🙄
Hahah oh noooo!
See, I'm not shy. I just yell out "Short girl needs a tall person, please!" But I'm really clumsy, so I don't need to be climbing on benches. Usually, yelling out for help brings some guys half my age (teens) laughing and we joke around for a minute. Then I go Mama Mode and tell them to drink more water.
Glad you took a vacation!! I love your content and debunking the ridiculousness!!
thank you!! we had an amazing time :)
I really appreciate these videos as someone currently recovering from an ed. It’s so refreshing seeing someone say how crazy these videos are (plus they help me figure out what is true or not 😭)
I love these videos because it helps me know what to look out for in fitness/health pages. I didn't even realize how shady most of the pages I followed were until I watched these videos
It can be very manipulative!
😂 when I told my trainer I wanted exercises to support my running hobby.
And then three months later I had muscle on the front of my shin area and freaking insane balance 😂😂 she delivered.
Justina I have pecs now. And I can move them. This is hilarious 😆
I won't ever send you anything like those videos because I don't want to mess up my algorithm, but please keep doing these!
haha wait this is a solid point
Thank you, for calling these creators on there misleading content. Then explaining why it's wrong. Great video! I have trained with a lot friends who will fall the words like toned or skinny fat to describe themselves without realizing a lot of those pop words or phrases don't apply to really anyone and can be really hurtful. They don't see the gaslighting tactics these companies or content creators use just to sell to you something.
and thank YOU for watching!
I really appreciate your take on these fitness salespeople. Excellent video
thank you david!
Thank you for a great video!
I love how you don't pretend to not understand what the influencer is trying to say, even if you disagree (for example, real foods meaning minimally processed foods, and not real, in opposition to imaginary)
I unfollowed other respectable and informational youtubers with whom I agreed because they kept purposefully misunderstand the person they were criticising's point.
Thanks again ❤
you're so welcome! so happy to have you here :)
Bible girl really didn’t understand metaphor 😬
😂😂😂
I will give her a small tiny bit of credit with respect to eating habits...that can be generational and even socioeconomic in nature. For example, people who live in a good desert. The rest of all that... ooof.
100% true! but there are also demographics of people (due to generations of eating habits or food available in certain areas that have caused evolutionary genetic changes) that are absolutely more prone to certain diseases.
@@JustinaErcole As someone in one of those communities I think it's extremely important to push back against the idea that genetics are destiny. That lady was terrifying though that language would speak to certain people. I was really hoping she was going to talk about using doctors and have a balanced diet instead of saying the bible supports raw veganism. Oh well.
@@agdoren Oh yes 100%! sorry if it seemed like I was saying "genetics are the end all be all." I try to remind people that genetics deals you a hand of cards but it's up to you what you do with it :)
I agree with most of what you say, but science does show that smaller bodies by nature of being smaller burns less energy and therefore calories and is harder for us little ladies to lose weight/fat. I questioned it myself at first, but the science is there and lots of credible PT’s agree. April encourages us small ladies to lift heavy and lift often - prioritizing muscle building and eating lots of protein for weight/fat loss. I’m surprised she used the “toning” term. Maybe it is because it is what most women claim to want and she’s trying to appeal to that audience.
Well sure, smaller bodies require less energy to sustain. That doesn’t mean we train any differently.
@@JustinaErcole I’ve watched her free educational stuff (and not purchased her program) and she mainly stresses building muscle over anything else because it burns more energy. She also recommends us shorties not use the normal calorie calculators because due to our height, it’ll drop us much lower than what is sustainable or beneficial for building muscle. She recommends a small calorie deficit than an average sized person for fat/weight loss. I personally know that has made a difference for me.
I hope people go find Jo’s video and judge for themselves she never says spot reduce she’s not talking about fat she even says in the caption it’s about the muscles and C-section moms and moms who have diastases recti. I showed the video to my doctor who said all of the exercises are great for diastases recti which can make the belly the lower belly stick out and doing exercises like this can close the gap changing the appearance of your stomach .
Did you read the text? That’s incredibly misleading. And that’s the point.
Also! DR has nothing to do with “targeting the lower belly.”
Thank you for this video! You addressed the name I submitted for Vlogmas! I look forward to your video addressing "skinny fat."
Coming next month!
The flames after the Catholic School statement made me cackle 😂🔥🔥
i'm glad i'm not the only one who found that funny lol
All being short means is I have to use my big girl words in the gym sometimes and ask for help 😂
If you're short you can deloade the lat pulldown, pull it down, put the pin back in while it's down and then change attachments.
So much easier, I started doing this while I had a busted knee
great tip!
Some of these vids were wild. I am 5'-1" and aint no one going to tell me that I have to work out differently because I am short. WTF!
amen!
Christian commenting on that raw/vegan *ish. First off, anyone who takes the bible fairly literally will not dismiss all of the books that come after the fall of man, where God gives instructions on what animals we can and cannot eat, etcetera. And YES, Jesus did drink wine, eat fish and bread, and used them in several miracles. He also said on the question on what food is clean "It is not what goes into your mouth that makes you unclean, but what comes out of it", meaning pay more attention to your words and actions than in trying to "keep clean", which is why Christians eat pork.
I had once followed that creator that promoted to 5'4 and under women. At first I was into it, but then I realized it was really for anyone and I wasn't like, hashtag special just because I am a short woman. I did her free week of workouts and to be honest, they felt like they had no real rhyme or reason to them. And, as time went on, I got really tired of her overusage of "skinny fat" and "toning."
ooh thanks for sharing your experience!
@13:17 Justina or any professional fitness trainer please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this woman is actually referring to spot reduction. After having a baby, the large abdomen muscles can separate, which is called diastasis recti. This can cause the stomach to look big or poofy and this also means the core is not functioning properly and can lead to back pain. Strengthening the core after pregnancy is not something enough people talk about (including my OB, etc), and please correct me if I'm wrong: but fixing the abdominal separation with proper core exercises can lead to a flatter looking stomach
You’re right! But to play devil’s advocate, why doesn’t she just say that? Why not actually talk about DR and the linea alba protrusion? It’s because she wants to be vague enough to trick people who don’t know spot reduction doesn’t exist.
@@JustinaErcole I agree she should be less vague. I don’t follow her so I have no idea what her other content is like 🤷♀️
So in Christianity we are meant to follow Christ and in the new testament he clearly states no food we eat is unclean because we expel it. Mark 7:18-19. Only what comes out of our mouths and hearts can be unclean (thoughts and words) etc.
Dropping VERSES! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Omg!!!!! You’re friends with Erica! I love her and James (and Tammy)😂💜
they're the best!
@@JustinaErcole yup, said the same thing! I love them too!
I love these videos they are hilarious! 😂
My hubby always wonders why I get so upset with people posting fitness trash/lies online and I feel like you get it….cuz it’s wrong! Predatory, manipulative and nonsense. Keep these coming, we need to proper education
I unfollowed Glo a few years ago because I noticed that it felt like she got more predatory in 2020 and followed her again because I liked her walk workouts. But as I have looked at her other workouts and the buzz words in the thumbnails I’m going to unfollow her again and look for other walk workouts content creators.
You should check out Jessica Smith. The most predatory thing she does is have her adorable French bull dog in her older vids…..peanut has since passed so she not in them any more. Occasionally she does advertise if she has a new vid she is selling. But she has TONS of free vids on UA-cam do a Gil does deserve yo make a living. Check her out!
Wow, 😂 cause yeah know, the last supper was definitely just vegen foods right? Those baskets werent filled with fish and bread right? And no one partake in wine right???
I KNEW I REMEMBERED THERE BEING FISH AND BREAD!!!
As soon as Jesus was born all those animals in the stable became beloved pets - definitely didn’t get eaten lol
hello do you think you could do a video to normalize how much fat is healthy to have in your body and show examples of what is supposed to be healthy. we have been bombarded with influencers either using steroids and trying to say that is how a healthy statusshould look like ex showing %5 body fat. is making me doubt myself is really not a good mind set
i hope i make sense thank you
makes total sense! I'll definitely consider for the future :)
I most definitely fell for that creator's short girl program -_- I wouldn't have had a real issue with it if it weren't for 1) the marketing "teaching" short women they have exercise differently or 2) it didn't cost like $1000...yeah. I know. I was dumb - but 3 years later I'm a bodybuilder and I know way better so 🤷🏾♀
I fell for it too. I used to do her workout app. Then I commented on Justina about April Whitney, and she said it was just a bunch of junk her method and told me why. When she explained it to me, I was like, why was I so dumb?!!!
to be totally fair, I have no idea as to the quality of the program. but $1000 is INSANITY
@@JustinaErcole It was…okay lol I got Natacha Oceane’s $90 program about a year after and it was MUCH better. Didn’t have dieticians involved but they honestly didn’t do a whole lot in the short girl program. It was mainly a support group, some basic nutrition education, and a not particularly intense or interesting strength training program
9:26 everything she’s saying is basically what I keep telling others. I know in the PCOS groups I’m in, they think we need to do low carb dieting, like keto, or follow something like the carnivore diet, or that we need to cut out fruits and veggies because of the carbbage. And I just keep referring them to you because they don’t need to do all that. Even Michelle McDaniel has said the same stuff as you and she has PCOS and endometriosis. I can’t believe people fall for this crap all the time.
Love this video, Justina ! ❤👏🔥 75% nutrition, 15% exercise. Great recommendations. Healthy diet is essential in losing fat. I'm honestly more concerned about women who hide behind fitness to show off what they are capable to get more clout in very little clothes. I've been watching your content and I noticed that unlike many instructors you actually educate people about fitness and fitness results. You're right about fitness objectives, but at the same time if you as a fitness profesisonal don't set objectives for people (if you don't point out what their objectives should be), they are likely to focus on the wrong things that can hurt them later because there is a lot of bullshit online. For many yars I've been analyzing content on social media, fitness content and delusions, quick fixes, fast solutions and short-term fitness programs grifters sell to gain clout and attention... It's crazy. Appreciate your work. 🙏🔥❤️ If you'd like to join us for the Live stream to talk about fitness, among other things, we'd love to have you on. 🤗 I agree, using babies/kids for clout is very narcissistic and toxic.
Love this video and format!
So glad you enjoyed!
That Christian one was wild... 😳
And as always, I love your educational, no bs responses!!
so glad you enjoyed!
"Activate your parasympathetic nervous system" please tell me how to actively turn on a part of my autonomous nervous system 😂😂
To the "Christian" influencer explain Gen. 9: 3,4 "Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. Just as I gave you the green vegetation, I give them all to you. 4 Only flesh with its life-its blood-you must not eat." Not to mention Matthew 6:11 "give us our daily bread" its literally part of the model prayer... maybe read more than the first page 🤔
It was dinner time cuz you ate. Love this series
AHHHH THANK YOU
The best and ONLY fitness content I now consume ❤
oh wow thank you! and if you ever want some other people to follow, let me know :) i know plenty of great coaches out there!
While a lot of Jo’s recent content feels icky, I’ll say this in defense of her here. She’s had a baby. I mean she’s literally holding her baby in the reel. And a BIG problem for moms is a weak transverse abdominis and/or upper ab gripping causing a lower belly pooch. If those moms are doing incorrect exercises they might not be healing their core postpartum. So they might feel like their lower belly is “stubborn.” And many of the exercises she shows in that reel are rehabilitation type exercises for the core that would help that mom pooch.
I agree with you on the other creators, but I think it’s important for moms to see the difference in training your core pre-kids and post-kids
Yep, she’s had a baby and knows the process of regaining core strength! But there are plenty of other coaches who have done the same and didn’t resort to spot reduction content. Check out Charlee Atkins, she’s done a brilliant job of it.
@@JustinaErcolethanks for the recommendation! I’ll take a look
Justina always coming through with awesome videos.❤💜
aww thank you!
The problem with the Bible is that it isn’t consistent, there are contradictory verses on many things. Some verses say eat fruits and vegetables, some say meat is okay. It was written over hundreds of years by many different authors. Some of this religious belief could be a form of religious OCD called Scrupulosity. Someone could obsess over a strict diet. There is a Christian Health Ministry called the Hallelujah Diet that promotes raw veganism, and my husband was interested in it when we were first married. I was freaking out lol. But he’s a real meat and potatoes person and couldn’t hack it. Now I struggle to get him to eat vegetables!
Yes such a great point!
I get major Righteous Gemstones vibes from the devil food lady.
Oooh yes
Loved the “strength” workout at the end - with weights that wouldn’t progressively overload a squirrel!😂
Completely agree that trying to accurately calculate calorie burn from a workout is a fool’s errand - you might as well try nailing jello to a wall.
Keep fighting against the tide of BS on the internet!👏
thank you for always providing a fun comment frank!
An interesting throughline between the Christian commentary on raw vegan and the ideologies behind keto and paleo are this idea that there was an “original prototype” for how humans fuel themselves which, rather than naturally evolving over time, has been **distorted** over time. It feels like a very dangerous slippery slope into eugenics thinking.
Thank you for this video! First time coming across your channel and enjoyed this format and your commentary :)
Unrelated, but I just wanted to let you know I love your little handheld fuzzy microphone..it's so cute and for some reason the way you hold it and talk is like ASMR to me lol! Maybe I'm just weird haha. Anyway, I appreciate you and your content! Thanks for dispelling BS. The people of the internet need it
Thank you!!!
How does this woman only have 61 thousand subbed?
As a tall girl recently getting into lifting and fitness.. I thought only difference in working out for your height was that it takes longer to see visible results/muscle gains when you’re taller?? But none of the things on her list weren’t applicable to me, lol.
You're such a breath of fresh air from the stank of all the phony influencers out there preying on insecure women.
thank you!
I thought the "temptation" was a "tall glass o' water 😫💦", but it was really just donuts and Costco pizza 🍕
me reading the comments: what is everyone on about the 'devil woman' what does that mean? there's no way its that insane.
me watching the devil woman video: ...oh.
also our boy JC had a ton of friends who were fisherman as if he wasnt constantly hyping them up ???
Hahahahahahah wait that’s actually hilarious without any context
You at the end "i have shorts dont worry!" Is like my 3 yr old haha
As a Christian, the information the girl gave about us being vegetarians originally is correct. HOWEVER, after Adam and Eve got kicked out of the Garden, God gave them animals to eat. And gluttony is a sin. The rest of it is a bunch of garbage. The Lord wants you to take care of your vessel, yes, but the specifics she was spewing was her personal baggage and didn't need to be targeted to other people.
😂😂 that video got real chaotic at the very end!!
😂😂😂
I got the carnivore book out at the library not that long ago. So glad I didn't pay for it as i looked up, the author, I found a youtube video of him admitting he was wrong. I did it for a bit as "reset" but never planned to do it long term. It was an interesting experiment 😅
I think Jo was referring to ab separation (diastais recti) that causes the mom pooch. I’ve had 3 babies and I stand by this through experience.
Maybe she was! But why doesn’t she just say that? This leaves it up to interpretation, and many people don’t realize spot reduction is a myth.
@@JustinaErcole that’s fair enough, I see your point. I agree her captions can be vague…. and I suppose I only came to the conclusion I did from the pre-knowledge I have of it. There sure are a lot of people who don’t know enough about it, as you said
Please do more, i learn so much from these
i try to do one a month!
13:10 this girl saw Raw Til 4 trend a few years back, sprinkled in some religion, then decided to amp it up a notch
I know these videos were more female-oriented but if you could do a more male-oriented one as a one-off, that would be awesome
I don’t see a lot of content from men, so if you see anything send it over!
@@JustinaErcole There is so much insane content from men on TikTok 🤣 Will do 👍🏽
I admit I love Jo’s workouts but since I watch the workouts on my phone and my eye sight is shit I never read the text on the screen. Guess I’m not missing anything. 😂
Haha yep you’re just missing misinformation and consistent feeding into diet culture
I am just going to leave this bible verse here, Romans 14:3 “Those who feel free to eat anything must not look down on those who don’t. And those who don’t eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God has accepted them.”
This is great, love that you call out all the crazy claims 👏
Glad you enjoyed!
If I wasn't already following you before your commentary regarding the insane religious lady, I would subscribe immediately. 😂
I've been following for a few months now and watching some of your older stuff. I'm wondering if you've ever addressed Tae Bo? My friend and I started doing it in highschool in 199coughcoughcough and I picked it up again in 2021. It's the first exercise that really kept my interest and didn't bore me, but I'd be curious to know your thoughts on it.
i've never tried it! maybe i'll have to :)
I'm pretty new on this channel, but is there a video where is explained why the toned word doesn't really mean anything? English isn't my native language and I dont know anything about fitness but this keeps confusing me :D
I’ve explained it in a bunch of videos, but basically people use it by saying you’ll “tone your muscle”, which isn’t physically possible. The only thing you can do is build it. Or lose it lol. This claim of toning is basically spot reduction content.
I'm 5'1" too. I feel ya!!! Great video! Can I say YES to your Jesus video analysis. I am a serious Christian, and this woman is just wrong that the Bible prescribes a specific diet. All that verse means is this is what these people ate. Nothing more. Not a diet prescription. To twist scripture like that is wrong and irresponsible. Also Jesus showed Peter a vision of a pig, which was abhorrent to Jews, and said "Arise Peter. Kill and eat." Meanwhile, I'll have some wine, pork belly and fish. LOL
Thank you!
I LOVE YOUR HAIR!♥
Thank you!! Literally got it done and then came home to film 😂
