Re: physical fitness - at the start of the pandemic I weighed 260 pounds at 6 foot 2, I was unhealthy, overweight and had high blood pressure. I just got down to 189 this Monday when I went to go weigh. Moreover, I can lift way more than I could, I have abs now, no excess fat around my neck, dropped 6 inches off my waist, went from a size 48 shirt to 42, and my blood pressure is back to normal levels. I didn't take Ozempic or any weight loss drugs - I committed to walking between 1.5 and 3.5 miles a day, bike 5x a week on a stationary bike for 30-40 minutes a session, lift weights while I have down time WFH, switched to an organic diet of 90% vegetarian meals with lean, non-processed proteins like tuna, cod, tempeh and chicken and got rid of ALL fast food, snack foods and empty snacking. And I did that for five years... and will do it until I die. You don't have to do this for very long before you start seeing really good results too, maybe six months or so and you will absolutely see a difference, and I'm not staving myself. I'm never hungry, I pretty much get to eat whatever I want, I still have treats and desserts in my diet in small portions. I NEVER have to count calories, it all just kinda works. I highly suggest when walking, walk with your wife or girlfriend, someone to talk to, or use the time to listen to podcasts or books so your mind stays busy. I only watch TV or movies when I'm on the bike, no other time unless it's movie night with my wife. I'm 34 now and in better shape than I was when I was half my age.
Keep it up. Don’t get fat again. Don’t do it. Don’t.
@AJohnSmith Never. You never know how good being skinny feels until you get fat and then get thin again. Basic shit like walking up stairs is hard when youre fat; you dont fit in car seats right, you have a hard time finding clothes at stores, etc. Every now and again to remind myself of how much weight Ive lost, I'll grab a couple of 35 pound kettlebells and walk around the house.
"Don't be a sorry sack"
Yep, you're right, good talk.
lol 😅
Turned off at :10
Everyone's apocalypse is different, had another one a few weeks ago, but with my support I picked up myself and pushed through. #StayFree
I train with 12-14 other guys that live in my neighborhood, 2 doctors, an engineer, and the rest of us different tradesmen from many categories. We have a plan for anything from hurricanes to public unrest. We all have com's, weapons, and plenty of ammo, food resources and medical, we already have an agreement of the plans to secure our neighborhood in any situation. Most of us are either ex military or government employees before our careers, all of our households know one another and understand what's needed from each and every one if the case arrives..Stay healthy, stay alert, stay fast and train..
That's awesome. Great for you guys that live in a populated area. Def what I would hope to do if I still was in the city or in a neighborhood setting.
Dream team. So jealous 😂😂
Priceless dad advice. Thank you
Incremental improvement over time, big changes before you even realize. Become hard to kill and stay lethal.
I am 51 years old and started getting back into shape this past October. I am back out on CrossFit and eating paleo. I have lost 40lbs
The mental aspect is one that I fight with constantly
I’ve been doing “hard things “ for a few years and still till this day sometimes I just want to be a coward go home and watch tv instead of doing the task on hand
This is hands down one of THE most factual / motivational videos I have ever watched on UA-cam . Thank you very much for posting , I really needed to see this. Best of luck to your friend and may you all be safe and prosper in coming year . RAH !! G.Speight
One of your best ones yet
Great video Ivan, awesome stuff. I'm 45 and fortunate to have been a life-long athlete and have worked physical jobs my whole life (FF/Medic and now Tradesman) and I've got an amazing wife/family and land all our own up in the N.Idaho Mountains... No matter the situations or circumstances around us our plan remains the same: Be together and be as self-sufficient as we can be in any given situation. Everything else seems to not matter as much when you have a good family around you in a place you love.
For just watching/listening this video has added to my personal durability- appreciate the talk
Favorite video you have made!!
What a great talk. Thank you for the kick in the butt for motivation.
Durable Human Being. Perfect message.
I watch the UFC, apocalypse movies, & own a Hi-Point
This is the way
Well shit you’re ready to go then
good enough.
The trinity
Great message and content.
We live in a golden age of information but it can be overwhelming. For anyone who is starting on their own journey, start with small goals, and keep improving.
I knew all of this in bits and pieces but it really helped to have you lay it all out there. Rather than spill my own guts in a Comment section, I will boil it all down into an incredibly heartfelt “Thanks, man”.
Definitely one of the best videos you’ve put out in a long time.
Fat shaming is truth telling. I eat well, am active and work out. But I smoke. People criticize me for it. Loved ones lecture me. They are correct.
You are spot on with everything, well done and thank you. More people need to hear this.
Thanks for sharing the wisdom
Work out, train, grow food, shoot, know how to fix things, be kind, believe in something more than yourself, prepare.
One of your best yet KB. (And you've got some good ones). "Get less fat and stronger." LOL. I learned a long time ago that simple doesn't mean easy. And most things really are simple. Thanks for this video.
I have a childhood friend that I watched go from 180-600lbs and now he cant get out of bed. His family dumped him in a home and he has no one because he won't help himself. He's addicted to food and cannot stop eating. He is very angry with us because we won't be there to sneak him food. I pray for him every night.
tough love is what that person needs. enabling has gotten him to that point. He won't hold hisself accountable. Tough love. If you care about him, you might have to lose him as a friend if he won't understand..
Sometimes all we can do is pray and hope that they somehow , someway preferably not the hard way glean some wisdom, or have some insight, a moment of self reflection that turns into a moment where they turn the ship around
I have see you post some workouts on IG, would honestly like to see more of what you do for fitness
I’m 61 and not an athlete but I workout everyday, eat right and try to be a better than I was yesterday.
One of my favorite quotes:
Violence isn’t the answer, it’s the question.
And the answer is yes.

Good stuff glad to hear instead of normal content
Sweet grey man ABs bro!
Nailed it!
Keep going, keep going.
Thanks
I’m going to jump in on a couple of points here and there as this goes on as I find it particular to my position and point of life. 48-year-old white male, mailman, and a little generational wealth. No college education. I am a lone wolf, not by choice. However I’ve joined my local Volunteer Fire Department. I can’t recommend this enough.
Nuclear war, poor health, divorce, whatever disaster applies to you
Good advice
Everything here is soo well said!
Here's my 2 cents (after suffering being fat most of my adult life, and then loosing 30lbs, almost effortlessly)
Big tip: Eating less is a useless frame! (sorry Kit Badger - but here's a better one hopefully :) -->
*Your fullness is not a function of actual calories consumed,*
but it's more given by volume of food and type of food.
If you eat low energy-density foods like steaks, eggs - basically protein, you will feel full even when you're not.
Abstain from high-energy density stuff like sugar (Donuts, Ice Cream, etc.) - just have infinite steaks, greens etc. - trust me, you will loose weight.
*You will have to overcome sugar addiction though* - most people have it by this point - but if you can stay off it for a month, addiction will subside.
Remember - *Sugar. Is. Poison.*
Then you will be feeling full even when you're not, therefore actually *Eating Less* like KitBadger says (so you're right Badger - actually factually right - but saying it is a useless frame)
I would agree if you were right...I eat tons of sugar...It's about being active if you do..move yourself alot, or don't eat sugar...You CAN eat suger if you aren't someone who sits motionless alot.
@@IndependentArmz I'm glad it works for you :)
I can imagine if you're more active you can get more sugar in you.
Definitely not most people who are already fat - unless ofc they change their exercize routine too
@@foxtrotunit1269 fair point
Yup
I wish I could like this video more than once
You can't buy happiness, but you can rent the heck out of it.
Raising resilient children is the goal. College and career be damned.
This is probably the most real life prep anyone can hear.
Physical preparation and the home gym is absolutely the most neglected prep
"Donny, these men are nihilists, there's nothing to be afraid of."
I eat about 5500-6k calories a day. The key is move. Move Move Move...be active..ORRR eat less..Forgot to say, I'm 46 years old and in good shape. I just move alot. It's pretty simple. I do push ups a few times a week. And, a couple other basic exercises. But, not much at all. Mostly just active.
WOW that's fast!
Remember in Indiana Jones they ate monkey brains for dessert 🍧
Good place to start would be 2.5 grams protein per kilogram of lean bodyweight. Only count animal protein though.
Don’t eat less, eat right. Hunger is how the body asks for more nutrients. If you simply ignore hunger then the systems that control your health will degrade.
Fucking awesome video bro
Rule number 1: Cardio
👍🏻
Hey Ivan blink twice if your razor is being held hostage. lol Leave it to you to shit on everyone’s fantasy by giving out actual tangible information lol love it and much appreciated 👏🏻
It's simple you don't. Someone's world ends every day. Remember, don't be a PAB. Help others and remember what goes around comes around.
Al Swearengen: "Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair or f'ing beatings. The world ends when you're dead."
Isn’t it said our generation growing up was pounded the food pyramid and now it’s bad.
Sad*
Bend down to tie my shoes, I pass out.
Went to the gym, once…
The Lone Wolf IS REAL. Just because he dies ALONE doesn't invalidate his existence. Of course, people who are ALONE, and LIVE ALONE, will DIE ALONE. SHOCKER.
Thanks for a 'Paul' talk
Being fat is disgusting, don’t be gross.
Step 1: Grow a bad ass beard. Done.
‘Nuclear’, not ‘nuculer’.
Ivan fucking rules the Internet 🫶🏼
