How I Keep Fit In The Middle Of Nowhere
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- Hi everyone,
A bit of a different video this week as I want to show you how I get my exercise in living on a farm in the middle of nowhere, with the nearest gym 1.5 hours away in the city.
I feel so much better when I train so I do what I can without all the selection of weights and machines I would use at the gym.
But I am very lucky being surrounded by nature and seeing the sunrise or sunset as I train, it is so good for my soul and mental health.
Some of the animals like to join me too!
Hope you enjoy!
Ruben 🇳🇦
*None of the animals featured on this channel are pets, they all live a natural life outside (no cages or captivity) where they feed on natural food around our farmstead - just like it should be 👍

Lucky you Ruben, good looking, well built, wild life, unpoluted atmosphere, entertaining pets...such a good life...blessed you
Thank you 🙏🏻 I am very lucky
@@Rubennamibiayou have heaven on earth and you enjoy it to the fullest ❤I love your love for animals and everything your beautiful oasis had to offer. When I’m feeling down I watch your videos and it instantly lifts my moods. Thank you for sharing your life and beautiful animals with us ❤ love Cindy the most
He also has a sweet mom ❤
That’s it, this lady is moving your way! Your life is so precious and beautiful! Thanks for sharing your beautiful life with us! ♥️🤗😘
I´d love to have some holiday with Ruben and his friends. It´s all so peacefull and Ruben is such a handsome guy. 🥰
I figured that lifting the meerkats and occasionally running away from Cindy was the secret...
🤣🤣
And the armored beetle! 😮
Hahaha, it definitely helps 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
@@RubennamibiaI would love to visit as some point love from the UK x ❤
I love the warthogs jogging with you
yea I did too, that was cool
The Tails
@@Cola64so cute🤭
They were too cute. Good workout buddies for sure 😁
You will live a long life because you have a kind heart that is good to animals.
Thank you! 😊
Ruben is literally the perfect man ❤
That is too kind, but definitely not!
Yes u are !@@Rubennamibia
@@Rubennamibia Maybe not perfect but almost Ruben , charming face, nice body and kindhearted is a a good candidate for Mr Univer (JK) 😉
@@Rubennamibia I'm sorry, but I have to agree with them. Humility is a key trait. Exceptional men never know they are. It's a paradox. Can't see it themselves. "There's no such thing as perfect, but there's perfect enough." Just made that up.
@juliusvinh109 Stunning but down to earth. Feels weird to discuss this in front of the guy, but it's an annoying paradox. The highest quality men never know they are. That's part of it. Now back to the cuddly animals.
I amost cant believe the warthogs are following you like a dog!! But look at the beautiful, isolated place where you live! Ruben, you manage to stay so fit!
They are amazing! I’ve been teaching them to sit haha
@@Rubennamibia
really? 😂
I'm very appreciative of the fact channels like this are still around. No drama, no over the top stimulation or flashy editing. Just a wholesome guy with his animals and plenty of good vibes.
Thank you for being such a pleasure to watch. You're doing great my dude.
Love this channel ❤❤❤❤
GOD BLESS YOU RUBIIN AND ALL THE PRECIOUS ANIMALS ❤❤❤
Love Ruben and co ....best gym facilities ever ...
It’s adorable how Cindy grunts when she hears your up and how the little warthog comes with you on your run😊
I sent you a mail!
You and your friends make this old mans day! Thank you from Seattle USA. Keep at it my friend
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Way better to get your fitness done in the open air with hard work and beautiful views and awesome friends to jog with . What a stunning place to live . You're a great young man with a bright future . Very best wishes to you and all your wonderful family
Thank you so much 🙏🏻 I am very lucky!
Good discipline!!
Your lifestyle is my idea of heaven. Surrounded by a diverse array of loving animals as well as beautiful wildlife to admire. Surrounded by many animals and very few people would be my perfect life.
I feel the exact same way.
I just discovered this channel a few days ago and am binge watching. I love the animals but Ruben adds a very special touch. Kind and compassionate to his animals, beautiful scenery - Ruben adds to the scenery as well!! God Bless you and your family!
The cow called me a liar -- hilarious 😂
They are cheeky 😂😂😂
Good sense of humour:).
Such a cool life. Who else can say that they wake up with meerkats, and a baboon, and jog and jump rope with warthogs? NO ONE but you, Ruben. Thanks for showing us how you stay in shape so you can take care of all those lovely critters!
Beautiful surroundings, friendly animals, a gentle, sincere man with a rockin' body. What more is there, lol. Loved the wart hogs jogging with you!
Your energy is amazing. Your positive & happy vibes are always beaming..
Ruben u look fit enough to play the part of a superhero in a Marvel movie role. 🙏 Thanks for showing the 🌎 how one does not need to pay expensive gym memberships in order to keep an impressive level of fitness.
You are an inspiration! 💪
All the most fit in shape people I know stay away from gyms. even though because of all the toys they can be seductive as hell.
Supporting Ruben's family
Thank you 🙏🏻
I love the warthogs' tails standing straight up when they jog!
Growing up in Kenya, we used to call them walkie porkies with their arial tails!
I love that they are jogging along with him. My son’s cat walks in the street with us.
James here in Australia, Ruben. This clip just gives all the good feels! I think one of the most heartfelt adorable things I have seen in a long time was all the animals going with you on your jog ❤
The peace and tranquility there must be a tonic for the soul. Thank you so much for sharing some of that with us.
Warmest wishes from Melbourne 🙂
I ve been to Australia. On Green Island melbourne sydney. Australia is beautiful!
From Rio de Janeiro Brasil ❤
All of these insecure gym bros wish they were as interesting as you. It's nice that you are more than just a nice body, you're also a kind soul, not seeking validation like the rest of society, and living a peaceful life. Keep up the great videos!
Your videos make me happy!
I'm glad 😊
Ruben, best to you and all the animals you care for, as well as your staff. 🫶🌈
What a beautiful young man and the animals if the world was like this it would be perfect
Desde Barcelona( España), un abrazo a tu familia de animalitos,y un abrazo a cindy.
También a tu madre.
Thank you for sharing your life and family with us. I hope if you are at all inclined that you find a partner who appreciates your blessings and you all can share a life like your family did. Time flies.
Warthogs running - sooo sweeeet 😊
Wow, you are really in good shape! ❣ Love that the warthogs keep you company! 🤗 And what a perfect day to start with coffe and warm greeting from darling Cindy 😍
I love that you said you don't really enjoy jogging that makes me feel like i'm not the only one when i do my fast walking.
So refreshing to see your families relationship with the animals. Love from Arizona.
Vie saine dans cadre de rêve et d’amour pour la nature . Merci beaucoup pour le partage 🙏 et le respect des animaux.❣️❣️❣️
Animals know who has a good heart which is why they love you!
Cindy+ eye candy = ❤🎉
Overload!!!
Yes those warthogs are some lookers…that Ruben is hot too! 😅
You’re being a creep.
I have to watch your videos daily Reuben. Its my therapy from this harsh world. Sometimes I rewatch multiple videos.
Would be lovely to have a video about your human family, even if brief. Your mom is an absolute angel, but I've never seen your dad. ❤
The cow 😂😂 the timing was too good. It really sounded like liar!
😂😂
The cow sound was made up
@@noelchua2954 I don’t think it was 🤣 they run a cattle ranch so very possible for cows to be calling him out! They know him well 🤣🤣
@@noelchua2954he mentioned on his live the other day the cows were already making the noise but he cut the background noise out and left that part in for comedic value. They do own a farm not everything is made up
You are a cross between Jack Lalanne and Sir David Attenborough. I'm dated I know. But I love to watch them both. Keep the videos coming. Michigan, USA.
Wow! You're as old as I am! And that ain't young.😂
Should I be alarmed that I actually know who Jack Lalanne is? I remember watching his show at my grandparents' house on their ancient B&W Philco. It was a floor model (nearly the size of a TL washer) with a screen that measured 19 whole inches!
Those little hogs with their happy tails high!😊
The Betsy curls were the best!
I love your family all the little fur babies running after you
You Ruben is such a lovely person with charm, witt and a LOVING interaction with all the animals!!! A pure charmer i would say 😍
That is an amazing place to go for a run.
The best 😁
Finally a video of the cutest specimen in the region.
Hello Ruben and Cindy..you have made it on the news here in the Houston,Texas area. There's a big article on the Google Newstand on our cell phone. I wish I knew how to send it to you. It's really amazing how Cindy made it from Namibia to the U.S. news
That is wonderful! The Dodo needs to do a piece on Ruben and Cindy.
I met two girls from Swakopmund here in America. They taught me a lot of Afrikaans and now I listen to Afrikaans radio on the Internet.
I think it's so cool that you have warthogs accompanying you on your runs! What a dream! ❤
Behind every great man like Ruben, is a great woman - can we please have a video hosted by your wonderful mum, Ruben? It would be fascinating to hear her perspective on the animals, and how she raised you and your brother alongside her 'first born' baby, your big sister Cindy the baboon.
I love your love for animals and for introducing me to Namibia. Pennsylvania U.S.
Poconos, Pennsylvania here!
Pittsburgh PA here
I dont know what it is about this beautiful young man but i can listen to him talking about absolutely anything. He truly comes across as gentle and humble. I wish you and your mates from the animal kingdom the very best Ruben!!!..
Arguably the handsomest, most charming man on the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xxx
That is far too kind, but thank you 🙏🏻
Definitely
Introduce us please to the big dog behind the wire fence. What a lovable huge face!
I will one day he's very loving 🥰
@@Rubennamibia Looking forward to hugging him through the camera. Thanks Ruben
🤗Well I feel better already after that workout. I think you need a spotter for your bench press, and watch out for the rust.
It makes me see how simple life can be. People are paying big bucks to join smelly gyms when we could be in a natural healthy atmosphere. Keep up the good work. LOVE to you and your family💜✨
1:46 My favorite part of this video is watching the warthogs trotting along with their tails straight up in the air. 😄
❤❤😂🎉 thanks Ruben You give US all plenty of Joy
Ruben is so gorgeous inside and out. Hour mother is just as beautiful. You all have beautiful hearts
What a beautiful place to live....thx for sharing. ❤
Was wondering how you were so fit. Soooo important to be fit and eat healthy and it starts young. Hopefully you’ll be an inspiration to your generation. 🇺🇸❤️
With all the animals you deal with daily...it's an insect that made you flinch. 🤗👍😜
Fascinating videos made by a fascinating, kind, compassionate, gentle man. I have wondered how you keep so incredibly fit. Now, I/we know. Thank you, Ruben, for sharing so much of your life with us.
Your face when you picked up that bug. lol❤
Never leave this life! You have everything u need and more! So blessed. 🙏
🤔
So cool the way you exercise. Love your buddies😊
I'm sure his diet is on point as well
Realistically, if you train hard, you can eat almost anything. Consistency is key . People make one mistake 2 big meals a day when several small meals a day is better.
I would agree with both of you. If he's an hour away from a gym he certainly isn't regularly consuming ultra processed meals like fast food. And while they probably keep stock of snacks and stuff he doesn't appear to be someone who struggles with disordered eating, combined with the physical aspect of his work and his exercise. These are really just assumptions from a small window into his word.
@@RICHIE_RICH89nope, I have tried many diets. Best for staying lean and build muscle are clean one ingredient foods. Rice and meat 3-5 times per day is best for most people already quite fit
I got something he can eat
What a beautiful video, you are compassionate men❤
I had a farm in Texas and I got hurt on a horse I got thrown and broke my neck and my lowerback and had a complete hip replacment and now I am retired in Florida with my service dog Jackie a Cane Corso.
I love your channel Ruben.
I enjoy the mindful life you live!
It's really good to see your farm and life in Namibia, I live in Wales and it is so different to your country, I look forward to seeing more of the animals, the people and the country that you live in!
What a magnificent man, and I don't mean just physically! 😁
Lol thank you 🙏🏻
Yes I love the warthogs running after you. It takes motivation to get up and move you set a good example to the animals.
Hello Ruben, sister Cindy and all other friends. Its always great to see you guys❤❤lots of love from India.Greatest workout routine and Ruben's trainers are really putting in the work training him, lovely😂❤🐗
I love your channel. Animals are fantastic and you are an amazing person! Thank you
Best gym ever 💚
The warthogs jogging is super cute.Ruben could be a model.♥️🇨🇦
You’re jacked man! Lookin forward to it!
Just stumbled on your videos . I say Ruben, you got a beautiful place around. No pollution, a beautiful sceneries. all nature is around you. Magnificent!😊
Hearing the free ranging baboons in the distance was very interesting. How many are there? Do they try to visit the farm?
100,s
I could tell that you’re very fit. Thank you for sharing your routine with us. You are very disciplined.❤
Much better than a treadmill and much better company. How many people can say they jog daily with some friendly warthogs trailing behind? Noboby that I know of in the US can boast of such zany jogging buddies.
And who else can say they run across armored bush crickets that look like an alien from another planet? And zebras, or Springboks ??
I love your recycled paint tin weights, very practical and eco friendly. I live that Betsy and all the other animals are keeping you company on your workouts! 😊
Ruben 🤗😍 Looking forward to it. I will try to be there! 🙏
Oh my gosh...such a beautiful video and a beautiful man!. You are gorgeous. I love seeing the wildlife and your wonderful scenery while jogging. It was fun to see sweet warthogs jogging along and having fun, and of course seeing most precious Sister. I've never seen a video like this, so it was a pleasant treat. Thank you for taking the time to share it. I'm hooked on your channel. Such an amazing family.
Hát ezert vagy ilyen fantasztikus formában!!! ❤
Your beauty shines through, Ruben! Thank you for making the world a better place. ❣
Running with the warthogs really helps to stay fit
Yes they are good motivation 😄
Hi Rueben, my name is William. I live in the U.S. in Western North Carolina to be precise. I really love watching your videos of the meerkats, and Cindy, as well as your other animals. I watched a video recently of you talking to Cindy in Afrikaans. Your videos are very enjoyable to me!
You are such wonderful guy. Keep doing. All the best
Thank you so much 😀
@@Rubennamibia you got a Spanish name, are you from any of Spanish-speaking countries? Take care, you are doing well
Ruben you are the most beautiful genuine human being I have ever seen. I admire you so much and your absolutely GORGEOUS also! ❤
haha, wonderful and very sweet this animals 🤩😍🥰😇
I think I'm training as hard as you from the comfort of my couch🤣🤣
Have a wonderful weekend
Very inspiring, Ruben.
Didn’t know how much I needed this 🥰
My sister Cindy i love it from Ethiopia.
Go Ruben! Love the music for the reps🎉😂❤ You are a fabulous human being. ❤❤❤
You look great. I workout with dumbbells. Music helps me get motivated. Keep up the great work.
Your gym is better than any other gym. fresh air, beautiful Vistas and the company of furry friends 🥰🤩🐗🐕🐾
I love you so much brother and I love Cindy and I love the warthogs and the meerkats and everything that lives in that beautiful home, you're beautiful country.
I love you Cindy!
Thank you for providing me with a beautiful escape, here in the US things have been a little crazy, but they're about to get a whole lot better I believe.
Anyway sending you love from my family my husband and my son and our three dogs, here in the beautiful Southwest Washington Coast.
I wish the world was populated with men like you brother
🖤 🐺
It certainly looks like you do an excellent job of keeping fit.
I could just listen to that accent forever. It’s like South African, Irish, and Kiwi, with a dash of German.
His native language, Afrikaans, is a dialect-leveled Dutch that was standardized by committee (like Italian was) in the early 1700's. As a result it has fewer irregularities than modern Dutch. If you're a native English speaker who's studied German (or vice versa) you can understand simple texts written in everyday language fairly well. It's similar to a person fluent in Spanish and Italian seeing written Portuguese for the first time.
----
It helps that all of the Germanic languages are much, much more similar than they appear to be wheneyou first encounter them.
Sorry, I'm a bit of a language geek.
Ive run in some scenic areas in the US, but running in the desert with warthogs is next level.
Reuben is an adorable man, your body is your temple and you take very good care of it... ❤
Damn, armored bush cricket???? It looked robotic!!!
This comment made me laugh 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I lived in various countries in eastern and southern Africa over the course of 15 years. Believe me when I say there is a lot of weird and wonderful insects all over the place.
