Hey guys and welcome to my first real attempt at a “vlog” style video!
I make a lot of content discussing how to “train like Batman.” How to train strength, speed, agility, brain function etc. all at once. But what does that actually look like?
Many people assume I’m this super-disciplined fitness fanatic. They say it’s easy for me, because I can train all day every day.
Not so!
Not only am I decided NOT all that disciplined, I also have quite a time deficit most weeks. Running the UA-cam channel while being a hands-on Dad takes a lot of time. Trying to juggle that with having a social life, navigating around injuries, keeping the house sort of clean, playing video games, getting quality time with the wife, working around the weather, etc etc. is all part of the challenge.
I do this for fun. And I try to always remember that. I train to live - I don’t live to train.
This vlog covers most of April and shares the majority of my training during that time. I’ve been focussing on some calisthenics, while also building up my bench press, and continuing to rehabilitate my back. Progress was fairly good, but there were a few duds in there, not to mention some missed sessions. It’s all part of the process!
Let me know what you think of this kind of content guys. Was it useful/entertaining? Or did it come off as a load of nonsense? If you enjoyed it, I’ll be sure to make more like this in future!

More of these please!
I was a single dad from my son being an infant. Had my weights, chin up bar in our apartment living room. He'd bounce in his jumper and jam along with the music as I lifted. Never missed a beat. And neither did I!
This is it, how to combine work, kids and workout ... i do not like when somebody trains all the time but neglects his kids or work ... family and health should be everybodys priory.
Training is way more important than kids, wife, house, work and other useless non self-profit activities.
Think of which one is most easily replaceable, training or the list of things above ?
@@nadroyvotsirh9431 so you have never experienced the joy of having kinds or you would never have written what you have written.
@@nadroyvotsirh9431 i mean it takes at least 9 months to replace 1 kid, and then you have to grow him all over again. If you live in India and give birth to 15 children, then fine. But as things going in west right now, with 1-2 children tops, it's a better strategy to not neglect the child and balance it with training as much as possible. Unless you are a millionaire and can hire a caretaker.
@@nadroyvotsirh9431I hope this is satire
@@memes4life26 No, it's a way of living, not a theatre.
As a mom of three little ones, I have found it useful to do parts of a workout between chores. For instance, bring the laundry downstairs, do 15 kettlebell swings. I warm up walking around picking things up off the floor Anyone else do this? I also get my cardio in while watching anime in my "downtime". This was a nice relatable slice of your life. Thanks for sharing.
Wow you watch anime? When I was younger I’d workout between rounds of games. Made the games more fun.😅
You sound like you have a rich and meaningful (although certainly not easy) life. Good job!
@@SammytheStampede It's nice hearing someone else doing something similar, albeit with video games. And yeah, I like anime. I'm a bit of an oddball. I also play swordfight with my kids with MMA foam sticks and listen to science podcasts while doing the dishes too. Since this channel covered anime inspired workouts before, I wasn't expecting an audience member watching anime to be strange, though.
@@TheDallasDwayne :)
Jujimufu does this, he calls them “stupid supersets” where he’ll do some vacuuming then do a set of bench then fold the laundry, then do some squats, etc.
Bear in mind that Batman is always depicted as having a terrible work/life balance, being perpetually under slept, and having scores of scars and injuries.
People always say embrace the villain or go on a villain arc, but Bioneer has showed us that embracing the hero is the best thing to do!
This is helpful for those of us trying to cultivate a mentality that is resilient to plan disruption. In real life the game isn't:
"How well can you stick to a plan?"
It's actually:
"How well get you recover from inevitable disruptions?"
Difference is subtle but important. Tyson said it well with the classic, "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth."
This is the most realistic fitness content. Nowadays most content is glamorise. But this type of content relates to the working class individual and family life. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I was literally just thinking the other day about how I would love to see a video about how you actually train because of how much you have taught about training so far! PLEASE KEEP MAKING MORE OF THESE!!!
"My month of training" would be an ace monthly series. Reckon it'd be a great way to build engagement without resorting to click bait nonsense and fits your personable / relatable style :)
Yeah that'd be cool
20:38 talking about actively improving mental health while showing your handstand into planche - so cool!
You’re stronger than Batman. You’re taking care of your family too! Hope your daughter feels better soon!
It's great to see a fellow Brit, using all this innovation in a variety of training programmes.
Cheers Adam.
The vlog format is great, but what we all really want is follow along workouts! We want you to suffer with us, Adam.
Big fan of the videos you normally make because, to simply put it, they're just very relatable. I even really enjoy the videos with Grant and Liam. I grew up doing martial arts and have always been involved with fitness and health. These kind of vlogs go a bit further then the relatable though, and more towards empathetic. It deepens that appreciation and admiration that was already there.
Like you, and probably the major demographic that follow you, I'm balancing work, being a parent, being a husband, being a good friend and son, along with my other personal passions. I wouldn't change a thing though because every aspect of it, even the days that are rough and tough, do truly bring me a since joy, fulfillment and accomplishment. I hope you continue share your life like this with us, even it's just a few times a year. Thanks, Adam!
It's nice to see what the real training looks like - managing time for work, training, family and personal stuff. Liked the vlog you've done Adam. Keep it up👍👍
Also, first👋👋
How did you comment 6hrs ago if he uploaded a few min back 🫣
@@erkee_99good question
@@erkee_99 Tends to be early access through patreon or something.
I really enjoyed this video! My partner broke up with me not long ago, andI've been in quite the rut for a while - I'm trying to find the motivation for training again, and vlogs like these work wonders for it. So, um, thanks and sorry for the over sharing :')
You didn’t over share! Thanks and I’m really glad you enjoyed the video. Feel better soon, man 💪🏻💪🏻
I like the vlog style of videos, you have such a interesting approach to overall training that is fun and enjoyable to listen to. Keep up the great work!
It’s nice to see the more human side of all this. Sometimes it’s easy to start comparing and doubting your commitment. Then you hear and see that other folks are also juggling the same life issues. Parenting is definitely a huge sacrifice, but like you said it’s also one of the most rewarding things ever. Nothing replaces seeing your children happy and healthy.
These train of thought videos are a refreshing change of pace.
Definitely enjoy today's video, keep up the great work & hope you heal up fast! Have a great day Batman 💪🏻And no worries life & family comes first 🙌🏻
I relate way too much to you lmao. I’m a sonic nerd, a batman nerd and ive been inspired to train like Batman since I was like 11.
The most real and relatable fitness influencer out there! I really liked the snake in the eagles shadow music in there to!
Haha yes!! Jean-Michel Jarre. I had that same version of The DVD! And the whole collection - was it kung fu legends? 🔥🔥
@@TheBioneer almost right it was Hong Kong legends! Always liked the music in that film and it works well in your video to. Need to go listen to it now thanks
Waiting for the bext batman workout. I hope that this one will include more gymnastics ring work for example weighted rung push ups, pullups and so on. A bit more focus on the hypertrophy and power. I’m sure you’ll manage to amaze us like you always do!
I like this style of video! I find it a lot more relatable than most fitness content. There are many days when I'm busy with work, feeling tired or struggling with a nagging injury, but still stying to reach my fitness goals. It's cool to see how a fitness influencer also has to work through these real life challenges.
More of these! My gf and I love them. You are a good man. A wholesome man.
Thanks for making a video about a fact of the training lifestyle: setbacks. Some people get off track and can't get back.
I personally really enjoy this content. So many fitness channels show you how to exercise as if you're in prime condition, but life so often gets in the way. I'm happy you get to spend so much time with your family!
Side note: I have the same Muse song the video started with as part of my workout playlist, and as I just finished in the gym, it was rather confusing for a moment!
Absolutely love the vlog!
Thanks for the transparency
OMFG HE LISTENS TO THE FRONTIERS BOSS MUSIC.
I am dying this is 10/10. That music is so hype. 😄
this was amazing , please do more of these types of vids .
love to see what you get up to
your current style of training and the like
thanks a million
Getting after it in all aspects of life. That's what's up! Respect! 🤘
This was a really nice addition to your usual content. I really hope that this becomes regular!
Vlogs like these are very relatable. Training and improving life with surroundings and equipment that we all have alongside Family Ties that bind.
Every other fitness vlogger is too busy filming highlight reels of what they eat in Restuarants on apparant life-long holidays somewhere whilst hitting an impossibly massive gym. Not everyone can or wants to relate to that.
Insights here on everyday issues, working out alongsize being a Top Dad, and hanging out in coffee shops. Yes.👍👍👍
Great episode.
I really love these videos! I really appreciate showing your reality. It’s also nice to see someone be able to do all these things with the bumps and the kids and overall time organization. Really inspiring thank you so much!
Just wanted to say how much I appreciate all of your content!
I'm not usually one for the 'vlog' formar, but have actually found this one very interesting and useful. It's nice to see how you fit all that mad training around normal life, which a lot of fitness people in the YT space don't do.
Love all of it. Your doing great.
I love your channel so much man. Thank you for being you
Yes! Cool video idea. I've been watching almost every single video of yours for years and it's cool having the feeling of hanging out with you. Wish all the best and looking forward to the next one!
Really love this style of video Adam! Still love your previous kind of content, but the vlog definitely suits you. As a dad of almost two it’s very insightful and inspiring!
Appreciate the content seeing your principles applied to everyday life with all of it's interruptions. The vlog is a more than welcome addition to the channel 👍
I love your honest interest in what you do and how relatable you are, so vids like this are great👌🏻
I'm all about this type of content. Like the newness and relatability
Really enjoyed this video! Feels like getting to catch up with a friend while getting to see how you put your ideas into practice which is very motivating. Hope you'll make more of these in the future ✊
This was great. You’re one of the people who’s lifestyle I aspire, so it’s connecting to see what it looks like in reality instead of the image I make of it in my head, which would be impossible to live up to. Thank you 🙏
This is excellent!! Funny, real and so relatable!
This is perfect! I loved the vlog
😂 The Sainsburys bag in the gym. Great vlog! Looking like the terminator running after the camera 🦾🦿
I've been subscribed for years now and I'm all for the vlogs!
Dude! I totally get this. Keep these videos coming they are very encouraging
A nice window into a fitness influencers life who also happens to be a real person, with real life stuff. We have these seasons in our lives, that change the course of the rivers of our intent. My daughter is much older (HS grad), but I'm working 12 hour shifts at my job. I have to change my training to make those adjustments, moving from recovery into mobility; prepping for the one time a week I have to do heavy or more explosive training. Cheers man
Made me a real fan of your channel now, this is wholesome content and a great approach to life and fitness to aspire to.
Hey Adam! I think it's great that you're trying different formats and content for your videos! I always enjoy everything you post and this vlog like video was super fun to watch! Keep it up! Cheers all the way from Mexico City
Absolutely more vlogs. You always make great content but this is something different. God tier video Bioneer
Love this style of content 🙌 Really valuable to see how it works in your real life
I really enjoed this style of content from you. Generally enjoyable but also it's very relatable. Cheers!
Your delts really have come along! You have some bowling balls there! I love that you’re getting in your family time too
Really enjoyed the Vlog, Adam. Would love to see more of these.
Great video. It is refreshing to see professionals have bad days or how family, friends, and work obligations makes life messy and will impact training
Great video... I like the grounded approach. A real juggling act to train with a family. You are very motivated to train as much as you do. I crave routine with training
Good on you talking about therapy. I go every 2 to 3 weeks and it's fantastic.
More of this would be great ! Really enjoying your channel
This was great video. Would definitely watch more like it!
I truly appreciate this vlog format, it feels very genuine to see that you struggle with time management, family, injuries, and all the things. It brings even more respect for your humility and transparency, so thanks Adam!
This has my vote. It shows how hard it can be to get all of that done and yet still do as much as you are able. Good motivation for the busy or procrastinator.
Really like these kind of videos, kind of shows the relatable side of you
I dont mind the vlog style. It's great honestly. Thanks for your videos and advice. I follow it whenever I can. 😅
Really enjoyed this insight. Inspiring stuff. More would be awesome 👊
Enjoyed this a lot
Hey been watching your vids for a while, use them to pick up weird and interesting techniques and workouts, but this format is very interesting it makes you seem more down to earth. The man behing the BAT
Love this kind of content definitely puts fitness and a healthy lifestyle in a realistic context
Loved this
The vlogs are awesome keep them up!
Thanks Adam! I find your commitment to family life/being a decent person just as inspiring as your physical training. I guess it’s a different kind of ninjaness 😅🙏👌💪
I really enjoy this vlog, you are a cool person and that's what makes me like it a lot. And there is nothing cooler than choosing to spend time with you kids than doing other stuff
Beating your fear reflex is a fitting testament to 'training like batman' haha
im down for more of this. its chill and i can listen at work
You’re a huge inspiration man, thanks for being a cool human 🤝
As a long time follower and someone who has purchased your training program I like and very much approve this kind of videos. Having kids, a full time job and a side hustle, takes alot of time management to have time for anything else, so I like to see how you are managing it.
Keep it going please! 😊
Poor old sonic this is a nice little mix up for a change not just training but you’ve got some great workouts and knowledge things I didn’t even know about always learning keep it moving 🏃🏻
I've been watching and loving your videos for years. I find you so likeable that I would love to be real life friends. Now knowing thats not gonna happen, because I dont wanna be a weirdo and I live in Germany, I'll happily take those VLOGS any day of the week 😅😂.
You and your family be blessed. Please just keep doing what you are doing!❤
This is fascinating and im sure would help me and others find ways to keep up with life as well.
Thanks for giving us some insight into the challenges of being active with a full life. I would love to hear more about the psychology of working with DOMS and other daily aches and pains from working out consistently. It's great to see you do all of this cool stuff, and other positive fitness influencers or sports scientists discussing the physical aspects of training. Getting a sense of scale and analysis of aches, pains, and distinguishing pre-injury conditions, etc., would be very cool.
Loved this style of video! I thought the sprinting location looked familiar, I very often go up to those chilton hills!
Love this style video! Honestly as a dad of a two year old and a new home owner. I typically only have time to workout right when I wake up. So I do heavy back squats and unload dishes from the dishwasher during my rest breaks between sets. And generally have to make as much use of a short amount of time as possible.
Bit late to the party but as someone that mostly works from home and often has YT on in the background, really like this vlog style content.
I'd be keen to see more of these videos. I used to think watching someone else live their life was strange, but I've grown to like fitness vlogs as it's surprisingly entertaining and educational to see how someone else incorporates fitness into their normal life.
I appreciate this vlog and would like to see more. I've only just started putting content out there; it gives me a whole new appreciation for what you do and the production quality. Whenever I lose confidence in my handstand, spending more time against a wall really helps. Chest to wall handstands with toes very lightly touching the wall (if at all) and concentrating on pushing tall may be helpful.
I'm not a competitive gymnast so I won't be losing sleep over getting my handstand perfectly straight, I'm happy enough balancing upside down with a reasonable level of consistency and control.
I enjoyed this vlog style video. As a parent myself this helps.
Great video great muse ic .
This is great and been watching since the days of your early body building days where you looked bigger(fatter) than you do right now. Loved your journey and enjoy this insight to your personal life and journey and shows you are just human after all. Keep going Adam.
I really liked this vlog :D More please!
Nice, I liked the vlog style video.
I started Functional training/calithenics about a year and a half ago and I've slowly shifted from a highly structured intense program to skill work and supplemental training because of school and work. My training now more resembles the stuff in this video, and it's reassuring to see that this style still works for someone as advanced as you. I like the vlog style btw.
Interesting video! About benching : search for a gym with bench that has safety bars. Than you can indeed finish with very slow last negative until lowest point where safety bar takes over.
living the dream!
Just wanted to say I thought a lot about taking anabolic steroids. Always go to your videos. You are an inspiration for everyone natural myself included. Keep up the great work!
