Dude yes I learned that mindset is such a hidden power. When you understand its entirety you can do some unreal things. I appreciate you brother keep crushing it homie 🙏.
Well done brother, I do murph once a week and now I’m working up to twice a week with my other lifting. Your achievement shows me it’s possible to crank a murph every day
Dude heck yeah man once a year was a milestone first time I crossfitted 😭 so once a week would seem like a mountain back then. Keep being curious of what’s possible brother you got this let me know how it goes 🙌🏽 it’s a fun journey.
Thanks Mike I appreciate you man. You inspire me as a father and entrepreneur as well. Was there any particular moments you were able to relate too broski? 😊
Not sure what to say except wow brah. Crazy to think doing Murph once a year or month but everyday for 1k days is unimaginable. I’ve done lots of 1/2 Murphs in my days to get better at the actual Murph with my times written down. My knees and elbows wouldn’t allow me to do something like this. Honestly i would’ve never thought this could be done. Amazing to say the least.
I appreciate you brother thank you. Yeah I had some of those days as well not gonna lie 😭. Not sure whether will happen to the body in the future but I just enjoyed it after awhile. Even 1/2 Murphs multiple times a week is pretty tough keep it up brother. What ever goal you got you can do it. 🙌🏽
I'm nowhere close to this level of commitment, but Royce is my coach and friend. Watching him every day changed my mindset drastically. I do 100 reps of my power and oly lifts now going on 15 months. Whenever I feel a lack of motivation, I fall back on this video and Royce's personal journey. He takes fitness to a whole new level. Congratulations brother

oh man thank you so much 🙏 . I appreciate you brother. Was there a particular part you resonated with most. Always like to connect how we can help more people. 😊
The thing so inspiring to me is that limits are, most of the times, what we have just set as boundaries for ourselves. In reality being conscious that we can go beyond in sport makes it possible in every field and gives us a "super power" !
@@GiorgioOlivieroGallone yes dude I super agree. I think we are brainwashed to believe our bodies can only do a few things. The more I learn and unlearn things about the body the more I am like what is happening lol. 😂
The beauty of SOF - specifically their training is that IT IS A SIMPLE TASK (or set of tasks) but the sheer amount of "perfect" reps get anyone (males / females alike). That said, HATS OFF TO YOU SIR FOR DOING IT FOR A 1000 DAYS !!!! I do it every week (on tues - no relation to taco tues ) AND MURPHY hero training has helped me chase my dreams no matter the set back ; no matter what masses say (in one's mind you stay at it) , and finally, at the end of that journey (or MURPH session) you have done what no one can take away from you. You , as an individual, are better & stronger & hopefully MORE SORE that when you started - in mind & body. Thanks again for the share.
Yes I think the workout is super effective and I go back to it a few times out of the week. It’s just nice now lol. I appreciate you brother 🙏 keep crushing that Murph.
Mad respect to you Kuya Royce, My knee is almost healed up from a bad patellar tendonitis and your video got me fired up! Definitely gonna try Murph to get me back into shape. Thank you
Thanks for listening brother. What in particular did you gravitate with the most? I always like to know how the message helped so we can always help more in the future. 😊
@@roycelaguerta All my senses were all locked in for the whole duration of the video. I think the one thing that stood out to me the most is how doing murph bored you at some point and you elevated the intensity to cause more friction to both your body and soul. When asked what is all for you couldn't even point out the sole purpose of it all, it was a journey that only those who voluntarily suffer will understand. Selfish yes, but it gives you something back that makes you do it over and over again.
Thanks bro yeah that was early on. Seems so long ago but in each of those moments there were great people who encouraged a long the way. You being one of them man. I appreciate you 💪🏽. What part resonated most with you by the way? 😊

Thank you so much. 🙏 I appreciate you. Just out curiosity for my team and I what part did you resonate with most? We always like to learn how we can help and relate to people. 😊
@@roycelaguerta the fact that you completed 1k Murphs. It’s so far out there that nobody would fathom doing it. But also the hardships with family and wife cuz when you’re dedicated and passionate about something others can’t see it. So the transparency with your subscribers is real. I felt it cuz I have similar experiences. It’s not easy doing what you love sometimes. There’s other things or moving parts and not always black and white.
This is awesome. And completely fucking mad. Which makes it even more awesome. This level of production and story your channel will go crazy. All power to you man!
Thanks Ric I appreciate you man we have a good team behind it all. Looking back it does sound more mad 😭. But when you’re in it, it’s just life and sometimes you don’t recognize it. But dude I appreciate you. What part resonated for hours? 😊
@@roycelaguerta I have a 2 and 4 yr old and the grit and determination to be the best you and the best father resonated. Not enough people are real with it, or give the inspiration to show that having kids is not an excuse. Be the example for them 💪. Also the ‘make it harder’ days, 5 in a day, animal 🙌
Done Murphs on Memorial Day for the last seven. Takes me some days/weeks to get ready. 1,000 days is unreal! I like how he started Murphs with an injury. That's not a normal human being 😂. Next level. Although I would say 1,000 days in the dry air west is probably like 50 days in the southeast. Do a thousand days of weighted Murph in Mississippi, you are literally a superhero!
Thanks brother yeah will bring it back in the mix 💪🏽. Haven’t made any for a while lol. Will put a link on here when it’s back up. Hope the video helped in some way brother. 🙏
Amazing brother, some day I’m gonna try this. What were the benefits? Did your endurance skyrocket? Did you get leaner/more ripped? I’m looking to get leaner I feel like the murph can help.
Heck yeah brother it was an awesome journey. Yeah for sure the first year I got really lean and arms back changed for sure. After awhile I think your body adapts so the change kinda stops lol. 😂 my legs where much bigger just doing CrossFit but with all the endurance your legs get a bit smaller I think. My endurance for sure has 10x it’s kinda crazy. I learned how to do more recovery through out it for sure and learn what foods worked well with me. There’s a lot of cool take away from it and I think everyone’s going to have different benefits. Regardless it’s a great workout and challenge. Just recommend finding a team that can help you when your injuries, sore, or just need someone to relate with that’s always nice. Hope this helps brother 🙏.
Most of them were pretty slow brother but if I had to guess somewhere around 9-10 minute miles. Some days were faster but I used those times to listen to a good book or podcast so I was slow 😭. Thanks brother 🙏. Hope you keep crushing it man.
Oh man 🙏 thank you so much for letting us know. That’s what this is about to just help one person. You can for sure do it! 🙌🏽 at 60 would be amazing. Let me know when you do it and I’d love to support 💪🏽
@roycelaguerta 1000 days of murph is mental my guy!! How was your body able to recover so quickly to keep the trian going? My lats are usually toast after a murph haha
@@dwyttcampbell2552 yeah I had a good team that constantly repaired me lol. And lots of foam rolling. But after a while you kinda got use to it. The hard part at first was actually the chest I think. But yeah the lats were smashed at first but it got better.
lol I’m not sure we just focusing on how to get the message across and what we can control but not sure how the algorithm Gods work yet. 😭 but yeah our Video guy is pretty talented. Thanks bro 🙏
I had a real nasty flash burn that put me out of work for five weeks. That was my injury. A new guy at mentioned the Army to someone and I asked myself what’s my excuse for not trying to do something like that. That was my question I guess. Going to learn from you so I can make my family proud!
Holy smokes brother yeah that’s a narly injury. You got this dude. Sometimes the best gift that adds to our life is an adversity. 🙏 I appreciate you brother
Yes sir agreed. Been Training for the next one 💪🏽. We’ll drop it soon on what it is. But thanks so much brother hope it helped in some way. I appreciate you brother. 🙏
What is the best weighted vest to buy? Which ones have you tried and which ones do you like the most and why? Thank you for your response. 5’6 @ 175 Veteran with, Knee injury and recovering, need to do something other than upper body. Thank you.
I’ve really only tried the 5.11 and I had a great experience with it. The 5.11 are really designed to as body armor sometimes it makes it hard to breath just the way the plate covers a lot of the upper body and your belly. I think there are some that have shorter plates so it makes it a little easier to breath but also easier to get lower on a squat. There might be some great floor exercises you can do to build the legs without too much stress on the knee like gout bridges being one of them. Hope this helps brother 🙏.
Hai tutto il mio rispetto ragazzo, solo disciplina e convinzione ci portano a superare noi stessi, ti ringrazio per questo video così tanta motivazione per tutti, a presto ragazzo
Great documentary and great project, love that ❤🔥I'm kinda on similar path but not that brutal though. I want to inspire people like that they could relate to what I'm doing, I want to make them believe they could do exactly what I do as well in my 40's even though having a family, job/business and a life. Great job man 🔥
Yes let’s go. What journey you on brother? Love to support in any way. 🙌🏽 yes even more impressive family, business, and fitness even more challenging. Keep at brother. 🙏
@@roycelaguerta Thanks 👊🏽 I created myself this one year From Average to Warrior -Challenge last November to get into best shape of my life, 80ish days to go, lot's of work to do though 🔥
@@roycelaguerta heyy seems like I can’t dm you on Ig so here’s the msg: Hey Royce! In a tiny nutshell about my Project From Average to Warrior -Challenge. I turned 44 last November and decided to get in the best shape of my life before I turn 45. It definitely has been a rollercoaster 😂 Pretty soon we (me and my wife ❤️🔥) thought that this kind of a challenge could help other guys as well to get a grip of workouts and life overall and we started building a community around this movement, but it’s been freakin hard to get people excited. I’ve always been looking ways to help others, but I’ve also seen many times before in our earlier businesses that many people would need help - but only a few actually WANTS it. Anyway, that’s about me and our stuff, how’s life? Henrik
The longer workouts I had some electrolytes and some days I took Protein shakes but for the most part I just eat pretty much normal. 3 palms of protein, 3-6 fist size of carbohydrates, and 3 cups of vegetables. I do a lot of meditating and I was lucky to have a great massage guy once a week to work the aches and pains. He would also give me HW on the really bad weeks. Hope this helps a bit. I think it really depends on the athlete as well. (size, day to day work, age) If you have questions I can give you a rough blue print of maybe where to start. But keep at it brother. 🙏
Yeah lol well first we did 3 Murphs a day for 7 days in a row, then 5 a day for 5 days in a row, followed by 7 in one day. 😭 that’s when I had to sit down and watch my son and wife go to the ice skating rink cramping up right outside.
@@roycelaguerta Did you have consistent gains or did you maintain the same weight and body fat at some point? Like, what kind of results did you get physically?
My first day was probably a few hours because I had to walk because of the back lol. But not sure what our last day time was. To be honest I stopped keeping track on how long it took and just did it. But if I had to say on average it took normally about 45 minutes. The fastest I recorded in that was around 35 minutes but only did that a few times because you can get pretty sore going really fast some days.
Amazing accomplishment that’s truly inspiring 🫡 Back in September 2014 I fractured my right arm and ever since I’ve been taking on different challenges shame I didn’t document my journey I’ve done half marathons bulked up doing strength training (naturally) over that time period I’ve gained a lot of patience and mental strength plus a good sense of accomplishment I am proud of myself for pushing through all the challenges and the cherry on top is proving the naysayers /doubters wrong who said I’d never achieve what I have done.✌️
@@N1CH0LAS007 dude yes I love it 🙏. I’m sure someone in your near circle have been massively impacted. Thank you for sharing that brother 💪🏽. Congratulations brother and keep going!
@@roycelaguerta yessir I have a few more challenges lined up over the next couple of months mountain climbing cycling and kayaking all in one day 💪💪 My sister mostly as she’s taken a huge challenge career focused and I’m continuing to inspire her and encourage her to set the bar high for herself. Keep on striving for greatness and inspiring us all to do the same brother. 🫡
When you do 100 strict pulls, how you split those? My max is 18, so maybe then after a minute rest, I could do another 10 or little more, but what about all other till 100. And I'm talking about pulls without additional weight.
Great question 80% of the time it’s just set of 5’s and the other times when I want to spice it up I’ll go 7s and 9s. I just like those 2 numbers lol. 😂 you starting to do a few throughout the week brother? 😊
@@roycelaguerta That's not the thing. It's about the meaning of "murph". Is this your individual word for competition, challenge, hard workout, performance, ...? It's not listed in any dictionary.
@@namanmit111 yeah great question. I have done them in parks, I've used a tree a few times lol, a side of a roof 😭, but there is also one of those door pull up frames that work pretty well. Those days were brutal because it's just different.
This video changes all about fitness standards. I think it's great meditation course make everyday thing like " Murphy Protocol". Great keep moving I' subscribe your channel
You kinda get bored after awhile 😂. Also did most of the longer ones during Memorial Day where we had a few heats so it helped and just wanted to do it with them so was like why not let’s go for something big. 😊 and to be honest I kinda like the endurance stuff now and I didn’t know that at the beginning.
Thanks homie I appreciate you. Nutrition was huge had to master that before the 1000 really because we were doing two a days a year before so pretty much ate Whole Foods 2x per day, fasted in the morning. Took more protein and electrolytes when the intensity was hire. Sleep was a priority and also made sure I was drinking plenty of water. Now to come think of it, it wasn’t really fancy lol.
Yeah it seems so far at the start I can see that 😭. My first Murph ever was awful lol. At some point it got a little easier and just doing the easiest rep was where it started. Maybe there’s a modification that is great for your body at first brother. I think you can do it at some point. I appreciate you brother 🙏.
lol yeah At first it feels like that brother but your body adapts and if you keep getting one percent better. Im not sure how long each movement takes I’ve never done splits on them but overall it takes about an hour for most but if your going fast it can be about 35minutes. If you attempt it ever I would start out really small maybe a quarter of it or half and maybe modify the pull ups to rows. Then as it gets easier I would upgrade the difficulty. 🙌🏽 I appreciate you brother 🙏.
Massive respect. I guess "Was it worth it?" is not a great question - after a 100 days it is just part of you? I am training to do actually do 1 Murph 😅. (I can do a lot of push-ups, but suck at pull-ups) . Thank you for the inspiration.
That’s actually where it started like 10 years ago. 😭 yeah I agree it’s just part of me now. That video was shot not knowing it would impact a single person. And if it helped one person today or inspired one person today. It’s worth it to me. 🙏 I appreciate you brother.
Atonishing effort, i guess the physical effort was really high but how about the mental part to keep going over and over.. You have all my respect. Few people can have this compromise to achieve such a record
Yeah intrestingly enough the physical part became the easiest and the mental was the hardest 😭. You start asking your self “why am even doing this? No one is really going to care? You could just rest no one will know.” You start having these very interesting conversations with yourself and another personality emerges that you’ve never met before. A stronger version, more resilient, and more faithful version. One that’s just grateful for just being. Thank you brother 🙏
In terms of physical most likely what you would expect with endurance athletes. Leaner, more endurance, stamina, recovery. But I think the greatest changes were outside of fitness at least for me because all those books I was consuming in the process 😭. Business, relationships, leadership, too many to list the physical and mindset was prolly the just the tip of the iceberg.
This would have gone from, “I’m going to do MURPH for 1,000 days” to “Pass the chips” in short order for me… very likely before even starting my first Murph
Thanks brother. Yeah the pull ups can get pretty nasty at the first st 30 days and it kinda shifts to the push-ups being pretty bad which is kinda weird😭. But pull ups are always tough. I appreciate you brother 🙏.
@@Snamify yeah pretty much as I’m answering emails, watching something, and also got worked on about once a week without team. Recovery is huge for sure 😊
@@KcinNosnik there were definitely days specially at the beginning that felt that way. But gradually improved the recovery side, nutrition, and had a team to fix me when I had a few strains. 🙏 I also think the body just adapts to whatever stress you decide to put on it over time which is really interesting 😭
I did for some of them but my day negative 7 when I was injured took almost 3 hours 😭. But when I started with the vest it was around 55 minutes at the start and last one was prolly 45 minutes. I stopped tracking the time after awhile because they were about the same. Unless I pushed it which was rare, took about 35 minutes for those. I appreciate you brother 🙏 hope this helps in some way.
Sacrificing the family time because you need to do push ups or pull ups is strange man( The workouts are great to become and stay healthy for your family and life in general, but workouts should never become a main goal ... What's the point?
@@iamthecatalyst. the first 30 days was like that 😭 then it really callused up. Some days I had to use gloves but skin can get really tough. I appreciate you brother 🙏

this is insane!! congrats bro! i'm working my way back to murph once a month. i also had a deadlift injury lol
Dude 😭 let’s go I’m glad you understand the struggles lol. I hope it helped in some way brother 🙏
This is awesome. And completely fucking mad. Which makes it even more awesome. This level of production and story your channel will go crazy. All power to you man!
Thanks Ric I appreciate you man we have a good team behind it all. Looking back it does sound more mad 😭. But when you’re in it, it’s just life and sometimes you don’t recognize it. But dude I appreciate you. What part resonated for hours? 😊
@@roycelaguerta I have a 2 and 4 yr old and the grit and determination to be the best you and the best father resonated. Not enough people are real with it, or give the inspiration to show that having kids is not an excuse. Be the example for them 💪. Also the ‘make it harder’ days, 5 in a day, animal 🙌
@@Ric-Gravina lol yeah I think missing some parent stuff was harder than some of the workout variations I did there. Dude I appreciate you man. 🙏
Done Murphs on Memorial Day for the last seven. Takes me some days/weeks to get ready. 1,000 days is unreal! I like how he started Murphs with an injury. That's not a normal human being 😂. Next level. Although I would say 1,000 days in the dry air west is probably like 50 days in the southeast. Do a thousand days of weighted Murph in Mississippi, you are literally a superhero!
Oh man the humidity would add an entire different experience 😭. That’s not joke. I appreciate you brother 🙏
Hey man, awesome. Very inspiring. Great love and respect from India.
Oh man that’s awesome it reached you out there 🙏 yes hopefully it helped in someway 💪🏽
Awesome video! Love to snag one of those made in discomfort hats
Thanks brother yeah will bring it back in the mix 💪🏽. Haven’t made any for a while lol. Will put a link on here when it’s back up. Hope the video helped in some way brother. 🙏
@@roycelaguerta appreciate it! It definitely did, it’s stuff like this that helps push me to continue to do hard stuff and get uncomfortable
@@Samson8171 dude heck yeah. There’s lots of gifts in that path. Keep at it man and let me know how it goes 🙌🏽
Just got the hats back in stock for you guys. Sorry for the delay. It's on the show notes now. 😊 Keep crushing it yalls!
Amazing brother, some day I’m gonna try this. What were the benefits? Did your endurance skyrocket? Did you get leaner/more ripped? I’m looking to get leaner I feel like the murph can help.
Heck yeah brother it was an awesome journey. Yeah for sure the first year I got really lean and arms back changed for sure. After awhile I think your body adapts so the change kinda stops lol. 😂 my legs where much bigger just doing CrossFit but with all the endurance your legs get a bit smaller I think. My endurance for sure has 10x it’s kinda crazy. I learned how to do more recovery through out it for sure and learn what foods worked well with me. There’s a lot of cool take away from it and I think everyone’s going to have different benefits. Regardless it’s a great workout and challenge. Just recommend finding a team that can help you when your injuries, sore, or just need someone to relate with that’s always nice. Hope this helps brother 🙏.
Awesome job man. What were you averaging time wise for these? Average mile times?
Most of them were pretty slow brother but if I had to guess somewhere around 9-10 minute miles. Some days were faster but I used those times to listen to a good book or podcast so I was slow 😭. Thanks brother 🙏. Hope you keep crushing it man.
I can honestly say that you touched me. I won'tdo a 1000 Murphs, but I can strive to do 1 by the time I am 60. (I'm 57+ now)
Oh man 🙏 thank you so much for letting us know. That’s what this is about to just help one person. You can for sure do it! 🙌🏽 at 60 would be amazing. Let me know when you do it and I’d love to support 💪🏽
Great work, I remember watching Jim tear it up during coivd
Yeah, dude that guys inspiring. And laid the grounds for whats possible lol.
@roycelaguerta 1000 days of murph is mental my guy!! How was your body able to recover so quickly to keep the trian going? My lats are usually toast after a murph haha
@@dwyttcampbell2552 yeah I had a good team that constantly repaired me lol. And lots of foam rolling. But after a while you kinda got use to it. The hard part at first was actually the chest I think. But yeah the lats were smashed at first but it got better.
The production quality of this is professional as fuck, how do you not have more subs????
lol I’m not sure we just focusing on how to get the message across and what we can control but not sure how the algorithm Gods work yet. 😭 but yeah our Video guy is pretty talented. Thanks bro 🙏
its an undiscovered channel. out of 100s of MURPH RELATED CHANNELS in UA-cam.
@@jt.8144 wooh I didn’t there were multiple Murph channels 🤯 go to research it now
I appreciate his honesty
@@brianinakilt2590 I appreciate you thanks man 🙏 I hope it helped in some way
I had a real nasty flash burn that put me out of work for five weeks. That was my injury. A new guy at mentioned the Army to someone and I asked myself what’s my excuse for not trying to do something like that. That was my question I guess. Going to learn from you so I can make my family proud!
Holy smokes brother yeah that’s a narly injury. You got this dude. Sometimes the best gift that adds to our life is an adversity. 🙏 I appreciate you brother
maybe the best video on the internet
Oh man 😭🙏 thank you so much. I hope it helped. And credit to the guys that did the documentary Bronson and Connor super talented 🙏.
well f*king done brother!!! On to the next goal.... never finished!!!!
Yes sir agreed. Been Training for the next one 💪🏽. We’ll drop it soon on what it is. But thanks so much brother hope it helped in some way. I appreciate you brother. 🙏
What is the best weighted vest to buy?
Which ones have you tried and which ones do you like the most and why?
Thank you for your response.
5’6 @ 175
Veteran with, Knee injury and recovering, need to do something other than upper body. Thank you.
I’ve really only tried the 5.11 and I had a great experience with it. The 5.11 are really designed to as body armor sometimes it makes it hard to breath just the way the plate covers a lot of the upper body and your belly. I think there are some that have shorter plates so it makes it a little easier to breath but also easier to get lower on a squat. There might be some great floor exercises you can do to build the legs without too much stress on the knee like gout bridges being one of them. Hope this helps brother 🙏.
Thats some stoic buddhist sht... I love it ❤
That combo 😭 I appreciate you brother
"You don't need permission to do something grand. Just Go. Maybe the Why will show up"
I'm gonna hang on to that one!
Love it brother 🙏 I hope those words serve you as much as it did for us and our team.
Hai tutto il mio rispetto ragazzo, solo disciplina e convinzione ci portano a superare noi stessi, ti ringrazio per questo video così tanta motivazione per tutti, a presto ragazzo
Thank you so much David for the kind words 🙏. Discipline and belief are a huge component to keep going. 💪🏽 I appreciate you.
Great documentary and great project, love that ❤🔥I'm kinda on similar path but not that brutal though. I want to inspire people like that they could relate to what I'm doing, I want to make them believe they could do exactly what I do as well in my 40's even though having a family, job/business and a life. Great job man 🔥
Yes let’s go. What journey you on brother? Love to support in any way. 🙌🏽 yes even more impressive family, business, and fitness even more challenging. Keep at brother. 🙏
@@roycelaguerta Thanks 👊🏽 I created myself this one year From Average to Warrior -Challenge last November to get into best shape of my life, 80ish days to go, lot's of work to do though 🔥
@@FromAverageToWarrior dude that’s so good 💪🏽 and an amazing message as well. I’m pumped to hear more of your story 🙌🏽
@@roycelaguerta I’ll dm you in Ig 👊🏽
@@roycelaguerta heyy seems like I can’t dm you on Ig so here’s the msg:
Hey Royce!
In a tiny nutshell about my Project From Average to Warrior -Challenge.
I turned 44 last November and decided to get in the best shape of my life before I turn 45. It definitely has been a rollercoaster 😂
Pretty soon we (me and my wife ❤️🔥) thought that this kind of a challenge could help other guys as well to get a grip of workouts and life overall and we started building a community around this movement, but it’s been freakin hard to get people excited.
I’ve always been looking ways to help others, but I’ve also seen many times before in our earlier businesses that many people would need help - but only a few actually WANTS it.
Anyway, that’s about me and our stuff, how’s life?
Henrik
What kind of supps do you take to help with fatigue and recovery?
The longer workouts I had some electrolytes and some days I took Protein shakes but for the most part I just eat pretty much normal. 3 palms of protein, 3-6 fist size of carbohydrates, and 3 cups of vegetables. I do a lot of meditating and I was lucky to have a great massage guy once a week to work the aches and pains. He would also give me HW on the really bad weeks. Hope this helps a bit. I think it really depends on the athlete as well. (size, day to day work, age) If you have questions I can give you a rough blue print of maybe where to start. But keep at it brother. 🙏
Did i hear you say you did this 5 times a day at one point? That's incredible.
Yeah lol well first we did 3 Murphs a day for 7 days in a row, then 5 a day for 5 days in a row, followed by 7 in one day. 😭 that’s when I had to sit down and watch my son and wife go to the ice skating rink cramping up right outside.
@@roycelaguerta Did you have consistent gains or did you maintain the same weight and body fat at some point? Like, what kind of results did you get physically?
Got push ups on lock I can’t do pull ups tho I need to work on that next
Heck yeah brother! Keep at it, its up next for sure 🙏
Friend, please give the timings in your next video. Timings of 1st day & timings of 1000 th day, & maybe in between also.
My first day was probably a few hours because I had to walk because of the back lol. But not sure what our last day time was. To be honest I stopped keeping track on how long it took and just did it. But if I had to say on average it took normally about 45 minutes. The fastest I recorded in that was around 35 minutes but only did that a few times because you can get pretty sore going really fast some days.
Yessir!
Thanks Bobby 💪🏽🙏
Bro your story is just as unreal from the years I've known you. 😭 What part were you able to relate to homie?
@@roycelaguerta started with injury.. Never stop. Perseverance. Only need what you got right now to start. The rest will fall in place. Take action
@@bobbyclintbaldwin3839 yeah bro I remember your back injury too 😭
Amazing accomplishment that’s truly inspiring 🫡
Back in September 2014 I fractured my right arm and ever since I’ve been taking on different challenges shame I didn’t document my journey I’ve done half marathons bulked up doing strength training (naturally) over that time period I’ve gained a lot of patience and mental strength plus a good sense of accomplishment I am proud of myself for pushing through all the challenges and the cherry on top is proving the naysayers /doubters wrong who said I’d never achieve what I have done.✌️
@@N1CH0LAS007 dude yes I love it 🙏. I’m sure someone in your near circle have been massively impacted. Thank you for sharing that brother 💪🏽. Congratulations brother and keep going!
@@roycelaguerta yessir I have a few more challenges lined up over the next couple of months mountain climbing cycling and kayaking all in one day 💪💪
My sister mostly as she’s taken a huge challenge career focused and I’m continuing to inspire her and encourage her to set the bar high for herself.
Keep on striving for greatness and inspiring us all to do the same brother. 🫡
@@N1CH0LAS007 dude that’s an awesome challenge 🙌🏽 let’s go!
When you do 100 strict pulls, how you split those? My max is 18, so maybe then after a minute rest, I could do another 10 or little more, but what about all other till 100. And I'm talking about pulls without additional weight.
Great question 80% of the time it’s just set of 5’s and the other times when I want to spice it up I’ll go 7s and 9s. I just like those 2 numbers lol. 😂 you starting to do a few throughout the week brother? 😊
Please tell me, what's "to murph". I don't find a sufficient translation in the translator.
Sure Michael for the most part it’s a workout that involves 2 miles of running, 100 pull ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats wearing a 20 pound vest.
@@roycelaguerta That's not the thing. It's about the meaning of "murph". Is this your individual word for competition, challenge, hard workout, performance, ...? It's not listed in any dictionary.
The good thing about this workout is that you can do it anywhere, including on vacation.
Dude 100% it now it’s a staple when I travel which is kinda cool 😭. I appreciate you brother 🙏
Where will you do pull-ups, just curious what is the alternative
@@namanmit111 yeah great question. I have done them in parks, I've used a tree a few times lol, a side of a roof 😭, but there is also one of those door pull up frames that work pretty well. Those days were brutal because it's just different.
Is it wrong i did 13 years in the militery as an infantryman and i cant be f###ed to do fitness..however watching men graft and ge in pain is admiring
@@s.wvazim6517 thanks so much for your service brother 🙏 13 years is no joke I appreciate you.
@@roycelaguerta you to kind keep up the good work 👏 🤟👍
This video changes all about fitness standards. I think it's great meditation course make everyday thing like " Murphy Protocol". Great keep moving I' subscribe your channel
Thank you brother 😊 yeah always blows my mind what the human body and mind is capable of. I appreciate you 🙏
@@roycelaguerta great dedication man.👍👍👍
@@georgiusadeo thank you brother 🙏
I think your son will be unbelievably proud of you when he’s old enough to understand. Hope this helps
Thanks Jesse I appreciate you 🙏
I enjoyed the Comfort Crisis by Easter
Yes that book was an eye opener. 😭 once you see it you can’t unsee things. Such a great book.
but why do more than one a day? so how many murphs did you do? either way your a beast bro.
You kinda get bored after awhile 😂. Also did most of the longer ones during Memorial Day where we had a few heats so it helped and just wanted to do it with them so was like why not let’s go for something big. 😊 and to be honest I kinda like the endurance stuff now and I didn’t know that at the beginning.
I'm inspired now. 38yo male Switzerland.
Heck yeah brother 🙏 hope it gets you to take just one step on what you’re trying to achieve. Have a good day man.
Amazing brother
You are doing great work. What about your nutrition?
Thanks homie I appreciate you. Nutrition was huge had to master that before the 1000 really because we were doing two a days a year before so pretty much ate Whole Foods 2x per day, fasted in the morning. Took more protein and electrolytes when the intensity was hire. Sleep was a priority and also made sure I was drinking plenty of water. Now to come think of it, it wasn’t really fancy lol.
@@roycelaguerta That is some great information. Can you tell me how you figured the no of calories to eat and electrolytes to drink.
Amazing story I wish I could do a Murph
Yeah it seems so far at the start I can see that 😭. My first Murph ever was awful lol. At some point it got a little easier and just doing the easiest rep was where it started. Maybe there’s a modification that is great for your body at first brother. I think you can do it at some point. I appreciate you brother 🙏.
❤❤❤ love it
Thanks loves ❤
Just out of curiosity were there any particular days you were like "I think he might not make to out of this one, so I should keep my phone on?" lol 😂
@@roycelaguerta always lol but for sure the 24 hour and bear crawl ones
@@taralaguerta976 oh yeah I blacked out on the bear crawl one. That was suppose to be maybe 2 hours ended up being way longer. That was thanksgiving 😭
I can’t do it for a single day. No way I can do 100 pull ups. How long does that take? How long does everything takes?
lol yeah At first it feels like that brother but your body adapts and if you keep getting one percent better. Im not sure how long each movement takes I’ve never done splits on them but overall it takes about an hour for most but if your going fast it can be about 35minutes. If you attempt it ever I would start out really small maybe a quarter of it or half and maybe modify the pull ups to rows. Then as it gets easier I would upgrade the difficulty. 🙌🏽 I appreciate you brother 🙏.
Massive respect. I guess "Was it worth it?" is not a great question - after a 100 days it is just part of you?
I am training to do actually do 1 Murph 😅. (I can do a lot of push-ups, but suck at pull-ups) . Thank you for the inspiration.
That’s actually where it started like 10 years ago. 😭 yeah I agree it’s just part of me now. That video was shot not knowing it would impact a single person. And if it helped one person today or inspired one person today. It’s worth it to me. 🙏 I appreciate you brother.
One thing this does prove is you won't keep getting bigger on lots of volume
That’s for sure an effect lol 😂 endurance will do that for sure.
@@roycelaguerta congratulations that was an impressive feat
@@jamesfisher8476 thanks brother I appreciate you 🙏 hope it helped in some way
Great video！Which camera？
Thanks Luka they were fx30s not sure what lenses they used though
@@lukathecoach2 but I can check for you brother

I think things like this pose similar challenges as fasting for long periods of time. Which is what can cause it to be spiritual
Yes for sure brother I did one for 5 days during it. Which was trully one of the more exciting learnings I’ve had. You do fasting as well? 😊
Atonishing effort, i guess the physical effort was really high but how about the mental part to keep going over and over..
You have all my respect. Few people can have this compromise to achieve such a record
Yeah intrestingly enough the physical part became the easiest and the mental was the hardest 😭. You start asking your self “why am even doing this? No one is really going to care? You could just rest no one will know.” You start having these very interesting conversations with yourself and another personality emerges that you’ve never met before. A stronger version, more resilient, and more faithful version. One that’s just grateful for just being. Thank you brother 🙏
cool but i mean besides mindset what changes do you see? what benefits ?
In terms of physical most likely what you would expect with endurance athletes. Leaner, more endurance, stamina, recovery. But I think the greatest changes were outside of fitness at least for me because all those books I was consuming in the process 😭. Business, relationships, leadership, too many to list the physical and mindset was prolly the just the tip of the iceberg.
This would have gone from, “I’m going to do MURPH for 1,000 days” to “Pass the chips” in short order for me… very likely before even starting my first Murph
😭🤣
I don't think most people realize how crazy this is
🙏
Its the pullups that kill me. Great job man
Thanks brother. Yeah the pull ups can get pretty nasty at the first st 30 days and it kinda shifts to the push-ups being pretty bad which is kinda weird😭. But pull ups are always tough. I appreciate you brother 🙏.

@@KcinNosnik there were definitely days specially at the beginning that felt that way. But gradually improved the recovery side, nutrition, and had a team to fix me when I had a few strains. 🙏 I also think the body just adapts to whatever stress you decide to put on it over time which is really interesting 😭
badass man
Thanks brother I appreciate you 🙏 hope it helps in some way.
Just finished 5 years of "murph".
Heck yeah brother 🙌🏽
10:53 You nailed it.
Did you ever compare your day 1 vs day 1000 murph time?
I did for some of them but my day negative 7 when I was injured took almost 3 hours 😭. But when I started with the vest it was around 55 minutes at the start and last one was prolly 45 minutes. I stopped tracking the time after awhile because they were about the same. Unless I pushed it which was rare, took about 35 minutes for those. I appreciate you brother 🙏 hope this helps in some way.
Amazing journey and thank you for sharing your story!
What was your fastest time?
I don’t have the fastest time on a lot of them but I’ve done a few at 35 mins but I’m dead afterwards doing those times. Mostly average around 45.

Hope it helped in some way Larry 🙏
Sacrificing the family time because you need to do push ups or pull ups is strange man(
The workouts are great to become and stay healthy for your family and life in general, but workouts should never become a main goal ... What's the point?
