- Balance is overrated.
My talented filmmaker friend Reece Robinson followed me around for a day and made this little movie. Hope you like it.

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone. I love making / sharing these - hope to find a way to do it more frequently and consistently in the future.
Awesome video Rich! I totally agree with you. It takes passion, commitment and dedication to achieve your goals and that involves being "imbalanced" sometimes. Keep up your awesome videos!
Quit taking the Mucuna Pruriens. It contains 15% L-dopa, which depletes Serotonin, L-Tyrosine, L-Tyrptophan, and the Sulfur Amino Acids as shown here: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3355850/figure/f2-ijgm-5-413/. If you take it long enough, the depletions induced from the consumption of the L-dopa will manifest itself in neurotransmitter diseases such as clinical depression, anxiety, etc. Full list of diseases found here in Appendix A: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3355850/.

awesome stuff Rich!!
Great video Rich! I'm 50, athletic and plant based too. I had open heart surgery earlier this year due to congenital valve issue but managed to fight my way back. Everyday up at 4:30 either running, swimming or biking. After 33 years of swimming I decided to branch out into triathlons after the surgery. I just completed my second Oly tri! Looking forward to doing my first IM next. Thanks for the inspiration dude!
Wow! Amazing! People find vitality in plant based diets!
I have got rid of cable tv and only watch U-tube videos like yours Rich. TY for taking the time to make them. Really enjoy your smoothie info.
As always, your words touched my heart. I'm 56 and training for my first triathlon October 1. And you're right - going all in does help in other areas of your life.
Rich - thanks for putting this together. I found the mix between getting a glimpse into your current training and your thoughts on balance very interesting. I know it takes a ton of time to do these videos but I thoroughly enjoy them.
Awesome to know you're racing again! Been following you for years, excited to see more videos and watch updates on training, nutrition, etc.!
This was a really insightful and inspiring video. I hope you find the time to keep putting out this excellent content, because we really do enjoy these glimpses into your day and your mind. Thanks.
Loved this video! Hoping you are able to start making more! Great message, and fun to see into your home, what goes into your smoothie, and your awesome workouts! We're huge fans! -Erin&Dusty
After I watched your video, I got up and ran my 7 miles. Your energy inspires me Rich!
You inspire me so much; everything from my exercise habits, nutrition, and all around well-being has a little bit of your influence. Thank you!
First. I love your videos, Rich. Second. I can completely relate to your perspective on balance. I feel most alive and accomplished when I am "unbalanced" and fully dedicated. But I always have to keep the rest of my life in check.
SO good to have another video back Rich, thanks for continuing to inspire!
I love just hearing what you're up to and what your training is looking like - especially when you throw in thoughtful philosophic comments on balance and the like. Thank you for sharing your journey!
Thanks so much for this video Rich. Inspiring as always! Please keep it up. Much love from Melbourne, Australia.
Great video Rich and Reece! I'd also love to see more content like this. I've been listening to the podcasts about twice a week. It's really helpful in helping me make better decisions when it comes to my health. Thank you for being a great inspiration.
Great videos Rich! This has been something on my mind lately. It seems like the key to knowing what balance is for yourself is self knowledge. Meaning it takes time to do the work to get to know yourself. It's so easy to ignore the self by spending time watching UA-cam (haha) or Netflix, Facebook, TV, reacting to your smart phone all day. Love the videos man. What ever you do don't increase frequency over quality, so if it takes a while to make one then who cares. What you put out is great! Thanks Rich!
Rich, this was beautiful. Thank you for sharing your struggles, as well as your successes, in this incredible journey called life. I so appreciate all that you do.
Thank you for being so honest in everything you do. You have added so much value to my life. One love.
2021 for me is year of Rich Roll. I am literally living almost every day with your podcasts, videos, book.
Love these vids Rich, keep them coming!!
I clicked on this so fast. It is always awesome to see a new video on this channel. Love the work you are doing here on the youtube space, hope to see more of it, as well as your podcast. Love it all.
Rich, great work! I always look forward to your videos.
Loved this. It's great that you are back posting videos. I really like the new style; it seems really authentic and true. Hope to see many more!!!
Love these vids! Hope you can make more soon, good luck in your race!
Good to see a glimpse in your day as you prepared for your swim/run in Sweden. Thanks for the service work you offer the world.
such an eloquent speaker! love watching these day in the life vids : ) beautifully shot!
I actually yelped when I saw this in my feed, hands down the videos I most enjoy watching - a perfect complement to the fantastic podcast!
Love this!! I'd also love to see more of what you eat in a day/week etc.
FUCK YES RICH!!
UPLOAD MORE
BOOM, nice video 🙏🏻 so wish I could spend time with you folks in Ireland, time and finances won't allow. I'm so grateful for you and Julie and your message of hope, health and healing. Please keep up the good work you have changed my life.
YES Rich! Keep making videos you're so inspiring! Peace...Plants!
Great to see you back on video! Totally appreciate your perspective on balance. Thanks Rich!
You are such an inspiration! I'm reading your book right now and I'm amazed by you, your life, your aspirations. Thank you. Your lessons are priceless :)
Greetings Rich from Bulgaria! Nice to see new video from you!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video! I look forward to the next one!
Always enjoy listening and watching you Rich! Great video 👌
I'm still watching these videos, to try and give myself the kick up the arse that I so desperately need. Always loved these videos watching you run & hearing you talk about life, exercise, and of course.. balance and meaning
I love these videos! I can definitely tell that some of it has taken a lot of work to get the shot and obviously the editing also - it's very well done! I would say that although I love all that stuff, I also really love just you getting some video of what you are putting in your smoothie and your gear set up in your car… basically saying that even though it is very appreciated maybe you don't have to put in so much work to making videos because we still love to see it! Might save you sometime and make it more feasible/sustainable to produce UA-cam content. 🙌🏻Seeing the trails you run is awesome also, gorgeous landscape!✨
Heather Vallentyne Moreau rich..... there is sooo much to unpack in this comment....... Don't let your subjective opinion of *quality* keep you from posting.... just post! We are following you because of YOU! In a way that I'm sure it's very hard to see from your perspective.......... I loved this video! But I'm a filmmaker! UA-cam, and subsequently film, are goin the way of the post-Baroque French Troubadour... think about how soothing a rough cut acoustic of Dylan feels in between today's near constant dubstep bass drops! Fashion is moving the way of quick, easy jump cuts/single cut talking head style! Kids 15-25 don't even blink if a UA-cam video has absolutely no b-roll! Again! I love these videos! And we can and should produce more! But for every 1 this good, you should post 9 with sucky lighting by yourself, disjointed and rambling! Lol try to meditate on it!
Trust me! This is UA-cam..... not Cannes!

Great video Rich! I recently read your book and enjoyed it immensely. I'm 48 and planning my own trail marathon, possibly stretching it to a 50K and following it up with my first triathlon in the spring. I'm also a vegan and ran my last marathon with only coconut water and organic purees for fuel and was amazed by the results! Keep it up, you are an inspiration!!
Thomas Lower keep working hard Tom
Keep them coming Rich! I would love to see videos of your podcast as well. Keep up the great work.
Great balanced attitude! You balance has a plan and I appreciate that. Just getting back into running at 55 after many years of just general fitness. Aiming for Ultra. Your ideas are inspiring. Thank you.
Great video- love the drone footage! Rich, you are a huge inspiration and I agree about the all in thing...I think that's what has gotten you to where you are now.
Awesome video. I never get tired of your message. Thank you and keep doing what you do.
I recently read your book and it shook up my consciousness! As someone who took up running and fitness at the age of nearly 40 I was a little negative towards what I thought I could achieve. Now, however, you have really opened my eyes. Thanks so much for giving me a new inspiration!
great video, glad your back !
Thanks for the video Rich! I listen to your podcast every day & I'm always learning and being inspired by it. Peace brother!
yeah! new video! love to se u back on yt. nice video and talk.
This video is so great! I'm getting ready to do CascoBay SwimRun and UMHawaii so I'd love to see more videos of your training and nutrition. Thanks to you and the RichRoll Meal planner, I've now been completely planted based since May 21. I feel amazing. Thank you and keep up the good work! Can't wait to follow you and Chris Hauth at Otillo Sweden!
Thanks for the video! Keep them coming. I sure do like the setup in your truck! Good luck in your training.
Great stuff as always Rich. Looking forward to seeing your results from the race and how you went about everything mentally before and after
Great perspective and honest video. Very much agree with your take on balance and the importance of going all in on business, training or life outside of those pulls when the time is right. Taking a step back after those periods and reflecting, allow you to see the value in pushing yourself in those times to achieve those huge goals. Currently going all in with my training for CCC ultra in September. Good luck with the Swim/Run world Championships!
Your truly a beacon, brother, you've given me something to focus forward on, as I approach the next level and age bracket in my life. Not looking ahead in fear, and not hitting the "wall" rather smashing through it, keep pushing, and roll on!!!
Great vlog RR! You are and have always been an inspiration and this vlog captures perfectly why. Peace!
Awesome video Rich....this is the first video that I feel is more aligned to the style of your podcast, Love love love!
love everything you do. love your book. love those waves.
Dude, awesome video! I love those beautiful aerial shots of the water!
Great stuff. Keep making videos like this, they are super!
I really appreciate your perspective on balance. As a father of 3, I’ve struggled with feeling guilt from spending too much time on what I feel passionate about away from my family. Thanks for sharing your viewpoint. Your videos are inspiring, not to mention beautifully filmed!
Thanks for the new video! My morning smoothie resembles yours! Very motivational!
Awesome, this little vid made my week Rich! Found it just before I left for my long run so perfect timing.
Love the new content. Its great your coming back to Ireland!
Super cool Rich! It's so great that you are showing us the routines and step by step of juicing, training, prep equipment, and recovery and how to balance it all --- always a challenge, but not impossible or overwhelming when people can see how you do it. All the best with the rest of your training for your race. I hope you'll video document that. The location and race itself sound amazing! PS How do you best fully heal and restore an Achilles tendon? Mine still hurts whenever I try sprint intervals. Matthew Benson UWS, NYC
Thanks Rich. You continue to challenge and disrupt accepted norms in an intelligent and well considered way. Big love to you and to Reese. So excited to see that the two of you collaborated on this. Xx
Your talk/teaching on balance was so on point. I have several mentors and coaches in my life and they would say the same thing. To achieve greatness sometimes you need to have a laser beam focus. Thanks for sharing.
Wow. That’s exactly what I took away from reading your first book. I followed an almost parallel path without knowing your story. You inspired me to take a more focused approach to what I was already doing to stay sober. This year I will compete/finish 2 marathons (Venice and some other Italian city) and at least 1 triathlon. Thanks Rich 4 being you. 🤩✌️🇺🇸🇮🇹👌
Love the video Rich. I like the idea of having a theme that you cater to and share you take on. Ideas like balance, health, gratitude, fitness, service, compassion etc.
Wow, the quality of this video! Such a pleasure to see you training for another race! Strong athletes are so important for this movement!
Keep it up Rich!
Your beginning coming out of the tent is fitting! Enjoyed your talk with Chris when he talked a lot about balancing life and our pursuits. Excellent!
Great video Rich. Always a treat to obtain a glimpse of your life and perspective.
Rich Roll... thank you for always sharing. I connect so spiritually with your mindset and ambition...now to move my pendulum back to my "feeling alive" balance.
totally enjoyed this video , I love your honesty , I've been following your for some time read your books listen to your podcast and feel it's time to say thank you ,
ollie
Very well spoken..its very important to be balanced in this crazy world. It has to become the #1 priorty in your daily journey. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and being an inspiration for us to be the best we can be. ✌🏻🌿💪
Always inspiring. Thanks
Right on! Your PMA and diet have influenced me to make better choices with my life, job, training. Great work on the videos, too!
Good stuff, Rich. Enjoyed both the look at your day as well as your thoughts on intentionality and strategic balance. I've experienced seasons when an hour, a day, week, month, a quarter, or even a training year (macrocycle) lacked balance, but the goal is healthy tension between your roles & responsibilities on the larger schedule.
Hey Rich - Love your content and your videos. I think that there are a lot of people who simply watch your videos because they look up to/ admire you in relation to your past physical endeavours. I think more training videos with you talking to the camera about how you go the distances; how you prepare for training in more detail; how you plan your routes; how long before/ after you eat; what bike you bought and why; when and how you stretch and even what gives you the drive to carry on during an extremely long distances. Yes all this sounds like Personal training content but not many people understand/ know how to train for Ultras. I hope my opinion helps - I didn't want to say advice because I don't think you need it but that's what I think a lot of people would want to see! Take care brother!
You're a nutrition/athletic hero of mine. Listening to the RRP inspired me to race in my first 2 triathlons this year. Thanks Rich, keep it up!
As always you are an inspiration Rich, been following your journey (and your podcast) since 2012. You have had a profound influence on my life; a positive force. Thank you -- we need more souls like you!
It’s been a while since I checked your videos Rich. Fantastic video, keep it up..
Love the video. Beautifully done and you hit it right on the nail with your message. I have a 9-5 job that I've had for 17 years now and listening to you makes me ponder who of us has the more balanced life. Although I run, try to fit in meditation, I'm also an assistant coach for XC and track and both my girls are pretty active in their sports. However, while society might label my life as more balanced, I beg to differ, that yours is. I'm jealous when I see that you Getto train at hours whern i have to sit at a job, to make a living and provide for my girls. You're an inspiration and hopefully one day I'll be able to schedule my day according to my priorities. Keep up your awesome work. I wished I could get my husband to change the way you did. He'll be 52 this October and is so hooked on junk food, negative TV watching, smoking, etc. unfortunately any health scare he's had still hasn't convinced him to change and neither has the fact of his mom dying 5 years ago at 75 due to congestive heart failure. ...
Loving that you still sleep in your tent on the roof!
PLEEAAASSSEEEE keep these videos coming. You're an excellent source of inspiration and motivation. Also, thanks for showing me Tinush! Great music for training.
Loved this video my man, absolutely awesome. I am constantly recommending people check you out and buy your books because these people ask me what stimulated my change and growth and I love telling them it started with you.
Sweet new video, please keep them coming, love the lifestyle.
Wow, awesome vid. Rich, Im going to be in Stockholm when the race is on. Happy to support you how ever you need during the race.
I only recently read your book which lead me to your channel. Honestly, I follow Tara Stiles and she spoke about your wife Julie. Then, I started a 1/2 marathon, which in turn lead me to you. I read your book and loved how your strength and how you came back from where you were and this has inspired me to read yours and Julie's cookbook The Plant Power Way, but just because I love getting new twists on others concoctions of vegan. So, it is interesting how this all works when we follow who we are and who we are attracted to in that area of our lives. I am Vegan and have been most my entire life. And think you and your family are awesome!! I love what you stand for and am so glad you continue to inspire others.
Grateful that you shared a window into your life, ambition and balance. It inspires me with my plant based diet and reminds me to try to drink smoothies, not my favourite, but necessary in my 70s 👌
Loved it. Keep uploading more. At least once a week. Please
Very inspiring especially for my tomorrow's long run in an unknown roads in Poland...👍💪
Excellent Rich. Keep them coming. Love and Peace from Newcastle, UK.

I'm new to Rich Roll, but I seriously get a lot out of your videos Rich. I'm an older guy than you (68) but we seem to have a kindred spirit. I love the passion of your work, and the subject of balance. It's different for all of us. Keep aiming high!
Great messages! Viewing a day in your life helps make me feel sane
Man you are great lad . Lately came across your book ( by coincidence ) and i `d found many of answers i were looking for ages -featherlight like . Food is crucial i pay atmost attention to it and the rest upgraded itself since then . What is more i am 38 now and was on the road claiming my prime time is way behind me and lost .Lost weight , finished 3 trial marathons and what is more precious - simply have well life now Thank you for it from the dept of my heart .. PS at first when i saw on the book name Rich Roll my thoughts were come on - it sounded like a cartoon superhero name - well... it was not far from the truth - you are .
Great video. Awesome to see you out in the ocean.
Love your podcast... the videos are fun and inspiring. I live in a small town in Wyoming. Most people think I crazy for eating the plant power way. It's fun to find a tribe. ✌🏻
Rich ,,,, Thank you so much for sharing this video.... I listen to everyday via Podcast series...... You really have changed my life...
awesome! good luck and keep doing, we wait for another videos
Good work Rich - beautifully presented film. Keep going and have a great day. CD
