Slinky TV do you even know how serious and debilitating actual depression is. I'm not talking about the teens screaming for attention, but the kind where you actually have a sinking feeling every single day even if your life is perfect. That's depression, and it's awful.
For a while after my divorce, I stopped working out and going out and spending time with friends and whatnot. Then I ruptured my quad tendon. I was in an incredible funk and doing things I'm not proud of. I realized that my life was over if I didn't start getting my shit together and immediately started changing my diet up to lose a bunch of weight. I lost 70+ pounds just through diet alone while my leg was still locked in a brace. Once I could walk again, I started doing just that...walking. That has morphed into being fully immersed back into a healthy lifestyle with exercise and diet. I couldn't imagine going back to where I was when I couldn't workout.

Lol just thought I’d share! Good luck with your fitness journey!
I'm 63, work 65-70 hours a week driving a tractor trailer. Up at 1am or 2am. 5 days a week. I have been lifting and running for over 45 years. The summer questions are "what do I do to look like an athlete?' I tell them about your website, subscribe, and get to work. There is no magic pill to take. Only hard work. I work out alone in my basement. You keep me motovated with great advice. Other drivers are thanking me for telling them about your website. It is awesome.
I have 3 rules for training and nutrition, 1. Every other day is bicep day 2. The other days are chest day 3. Eat 1 chicken breast per pound of body mass. Do these 3 rules and only these 3 rules and maybe you'll be the size of Bradley martin, fairly small though because you'll never be the size of dom.
Cowelly84 i might not really be all-knowledgeable here but it does seem to me that a two-day slit is a tad too limiting. i mean, like Jeff always says, try to keep your workout last less than an hour, preferably 40 minutes. and if you really want to bulk up symetrically, what do you need to work on? the biceps, shoulders, triceps, chest, forearms, core/abs, thighs, calves, maybe even your ass... see how much of it is there? i personally switched to a three-day cycle, Monday for the biceps and forearms, Tuesday for the chest/triceps and shoulders, Wednesday for the leg stuff and then all over again until Sunday when I rest
Jeff is such a gift to the athletic Community. So so pleased I came across his channel he's dramatically influenced my work out plans for the better and increased my biological/physiological understanding of why. What a champion.
41 years old, I love how he is so honest , sometimes you gotta check your ego at the door. Planning a summer vacation. ( with my shirt off). Jeff will lead me to the promise land!!
Thibo De Volder the reason i have this phobia stuff to them is because i have so many people in my life telling me that these will ruin my knees, is this true!?
I'm 15 years old and have recently started working out, I'm so grateful I have the ability to watch these videos and learn all of these amazing tips from you, thank you so much
that jesse is a loser he dosent realise what options are open to him with jeff as a boss , eating that donut was his last mistake , i hope jeff beat the shit outta him after that !!
JEFF - Don't go from A to B, go from A-Z and really concentrate on each stage of the rep. ARNOLD - Be "inside" the muscle. Different words but same advice, excellent stuff.!
I'm surprised how critical other Fitness experts can be of Jeff. I never felt like I was being sold anything. The sheer amount of information can be gloriously helpful.
Covid brought in a lot of noob youngsters who can't watch for more than 30 seconds. Jeff's videos, since the beginning, have been worthwhile and extremely insightful. Unfortunately, these days the gymcels prefer negative content than a video with cold hard truths.
"what do you have a problem with them?" Not sure if troll or a steroid abuser himself. Steroid users act "natty" to their audience just to "motivate" their NATTY AUDIENCES to get ripped and monstrously big like them. How did they do that? Well, simply just lying "do this do that and you'll be as big as mine bro" without even mentioning that they're on steroid abuse. Now, to be fair, some of them did admit they use steroids, but tons of them refrain from being honest. These dishonest cunts are what spread hatreds to the people. Don't give your audience false hope if you know they can't be as big as you without risky chemicals. Good for knowledgeable audiences, but for the ignorant ones, especially fitness noobs, it's too bad for them. They'd try steroids without ever thinking about the long term side effects or short term risks.
To Anyone Who Is Reading These Comments, The Tip That Helped Me The Most Is Something That Jeff Says A Lot In Many Of His Videos. Shorten Your Workouts, Increase The Intensity. Instead Of Spending Hours On Training, Reduce Your Breaks, Perform Reps Properly. You'll See So Much Progress.
In all seriousness though, it can be hard to determine to what intensity I should be pushing for without breaking total form. If I'm opting for proper form then I can usually get 7-8 reps. Any heavier and it gets sloppy. So I always seem to work in a decent amount of volume and intensity.
I was new to lifting and this channel 4 months ago. In that time I’ve watched every video dead serious and put on 5 solid pounds of gains. Love you Jeff
Remember when you're pushing it is all about intensity not reps. Get it all out in one push and accelerate all the way through. You're not just trying to go from A to P, you're trying to push it right through the porcelain. Before you know it you'll have the sphincter of Adonis.
Jeff - I’m 51 with MS. when I learned a lot what ur talking about when I needed to lose 20lbs. Now learning how to readjust my workout with my disability. I again have lost 20 lbs that I gained as I figuring it out. Things u have taught me confirm that I needed to hear. Thank u.
Jeff! Your Awesome! .. Great Teacher.. Great COACH! Appreciate your honesty and suggestions.. Im a 58 yr old Cancer Survivor/ 1988...... and approaching the bEST shape of my life.. Future is Very exciting! Peace Jeff!
Thank YOU (all creators and all who do this videos) from all of my heart. Jeff's advices are very helpful in being healthy and strong. He always sounds like a person, who cares about people around; does it like a physician and even like a wise loving father. Hope these videos would be watched by as much as it possible youngsters. Yaroslav, 25 years old, Ukraine (had no father since 12 years old).
I started lifting in the 90s too without internet and realized that there was no way I could learn to do it right without hurting myself in the long run. Now Jeff has motivated me to get back into it and his philosophy of doing everything with the long run in mind has me hooked. Thanks Jeff and Let the Gains Begin!
Jeff this has really helped me . Never stop doing what you do you're the main reason i become a healthier person and I like my body more than before what you're doing is meaningful to me and thanks for everything
Seriously? The amount of assumptions you're making is insane. How do you know they're American? How do you know its the individual's first/main language? Next, the point they are making is a comedic one but instead you focus on a mistake. You should reevaluate your own life before you try to evaluate another's.
...says the guy who launches his post with a run-on sentence and uses "there" where it should be "their." Of course, correcting others' grammar and such in a casual chat thread without provocation is merely pedantic posturing; however, those who feel compelled to belittle others' grammar, spelling and such should make sure their own chops are up to scratch before embarrassing themselves and, by proxy, their supposedly superior cultural background.
As a 57, yes a 57 year old man who has recently started going to the gym , not to bulk up but just try and keep active and not lift huge weights but moderate weights to try and stay in shape, thank you so much for providing me with so much good solid knowledge/information on this fantastic informative channel. It stands out from the rest of the mediocre channels. Keep it up. Much respect.
I was working out for 90 mins and never saw any gains. When I started working out for 45 mins I almost immediately saw results from mass to longer pump
My problem is that I can not spend less than 45 min doin bench. I try cut it in half but it takes time to reach your personal best. So I start at half of what I can manage and increase five pounds a set. Reach my personal best, or slightly above, and do three or four more sets. After that it’s close to an hour! Is it too long or what should I do?
@@TobbeStorm I'd suggest just doing 6 sets of bench, I go 3 heavy sets, 2 medium weight sets, and 1 light, high rep set, just to really fatigue the chest, and then go do some other chest workouts like cables flies and dips
You can tell that he is genuinely interested in helping people be their best. I started following his suggestions and am looking foreword to swing how I progress.
I'm almost 65 and have gotten more Great advice for my workouts than I have from pass trainers. You are so knowledgeable. Experience has and always will be your best teacher.
Dear Jeff, You should know that thanks to your advice, many of us who seek the best approach to exercise and health without injury repercussions, have benefited from and appreciated this channel and thanks to you we have not had to learn by trial an error. THANKS!
your videos are so incredibly helpful, from posture to how to perform every rep, you are the first person i've found in the fitness industry that truly aims to help clients and not just get their money.
My exerphobia is triceps dips. Because a couple of times I leaned too much forwards and hurt my pecs real bad. Also, I have wonky shoulders so many times a dip was falling flat on my ass. But these last two months are my newest stint in the gym and I applied Jeff's techniques and I am training smart, and then hard, and I got quicker results in two months than in the last stint of a YEAR AND A HALF.
Robert Markoš My exerphobia used to be lifting weights. As a women I've heard years of bullshit that lifting weight will cause me to end up looking like a man. Common sense kicked in... I'd have to lift like a man to look like a man... my 15# curls aren't going to give me manly bicepts.
Jeff, watched so many of your videos. Back pain= gone, shoulder pain = gone, stiffness and feeling old= gone. Why? Your training. I owe you so much I'd donate to your cause for all the free content! You should let those who wish to donate put money into a charity for the free content! I owe a big thanks for your content. I'll never stop watching. You are making the world a better place and hope your benefiting financially as you deserve it .your hard work is admirable! Stay strong! I've become fit for the first time and started at 40! Thanks.
#1 the too low of fat was one that I was making. Once I added more fat into my diet, I began to get leaner and now I am the leanest I have ever been. I can see the veins laying over my abs, chest and shoulders.
Excellent advice! Things really changed for me when I forgot the “bodybuilding” world and thought of myself as an athlete, focusing on pushing my limits inside and out and loving the pressure of those last painful reps. I don’t look out; I look in and enjoy the workouts. I’d definitely agree with scrapping the bodybuilder magazines and just hitting the workouts like Rocky
1. good fats .. yep flax / avocados. 2. training hard v training long. yep intensity is the key to gains.i think Jeff admits here he is an ectomorph so the lean look with be easier for him but gains are harder than for a meso / endo. For the definitive education intensity google the colorado experiment ellington darden . 3. Supps. Yes and no. If you need gains you are gonna need protein to support those. How you get that protein is up to you , but easier to down a shake than a whole chicken. 4. Magazines. In most cases the workouts be the pros are isolation exercises ... they have already done the basic strength lifts to build a base. EG squats / deadlifts / bench/ shrugs imo pointless doing a side lateral for example before you have built core strength. 5. Avoid injury at all costs. You can't make any gains or you will suffer atrophy when you get injured. Therefore avoid. Warm up and do some defensive / mobility work b4 every workout. Once a month have a deep tissue massage once 8 weeks chiropractic help. Yep boring as fuck but prevention is better than cure. 6. Mix it up. Don't spend your life in the Gym. Do some low impact cardio for example outside the gym... E. G. Biking. Try muscle confusion ... don't do the same workouts over and over. 7. Don't waste time in the gym gassing. 8. Try to get a partner / spotter that helps and has a similar goal to you. If possible try to get one who has similar strength. Why ? S9 you don't have to keep in changing weights (applies mostly to barbell free weights). 9. progress. Either resistance or modify (see Jeff 's excellent vids on this topic... E. G his I hate plank vid). Maybe Jeff could have a play list for progression vids ?
flax and avocados, are you kidding me? Coconut oil (the best concentrated source of good saturated fat, boost testosterone), macadamia nuts (the best concentrated source monounsaturated fat, boost testosterone), fish oil high in omega-3 (the best polyunsaturated fat, which you should be avoiding BTW because it LOWERS testosterone (of the three types of fat), but it's good for helping with inflammation and mental issues). Important note, vegetables for omega-3 leads to poor absorption of omega-3 in ALA form (i.e., get it from fish with no ifs, ands, or buts).
+SteelBlueVision ... coconut oil ... yep..and macadamia. .. also thumbs up. I cook with coconut oil and love macadamia but it's difficult to "eat" a lot of coconut oil and macadamia nuts are way expensive here. Avocados and flax no good ? why ?
So many points of superb advice in this one! I'm impressed that he shares past mistakes. Also impressed he knows about micro-nutrients - so important! Thanks, I learned a lot - again!
Jeff you're a proper good geeza mate!!, cheers for the advice and all the free help on your channel!, I've been following your 7 minute abs workout every morning for almost 3 weeks now and I'm sticking to it forever mate!.I'm 44, back in training and loving it!!.
I found you at the right time when I joined the Gym 5 days ago. I watched almost 40 videos of you and you are the best and very helpful. Thank you and keep guiding us.
Jeff your the best man. All i can think about is health and fitness all day everyday and i keep coming back to your channel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
This video was just what I needed to hear. Number eight is something I've struggled with for years. Just recently, I finally figured out a good balance between intensity and volume and my energy and strength levels have definitely increased. I also used to avoid barbell squats and deadlifts but now, along with overhead barbell press, they are my absolute favorite exercise. Thanks for all your advise, Jeff!! Your channel has high value in my life!
44 years old myself and still working out consistently since I was in my teens. Thank you for being honest and sharing some of your experiences and tips. I have already started implementing some of them and not only am I becoming inspired again but I am having fun. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Jeff, I just finished AX-1 and I can’t wait to purchase Ax-2 at the end of this month. You have been very influential on my life. I can now train with no joint or body pain.
Thank you so much for this and all your videos and programs Jeff! I'm 43 years old this month and I have also fallen prey to all of theses myths and mistakes. So much of this was an eye opener to me. Some of these 8 I was doing up until today!!-not anymore though;) By the way Jeff, I just finished week 11 of AX-1 and have already purchased my next program and I can't wait to start it!!! ((gotta hit my last 400 challenge (trying to beat 7:59) and my final exam first though-wish it were Monday already))!!!!. Anyway, your channel and stuff here has been changing my life, increasing my confidence, and I've been seeing noticeable results in my physique and my health so thanks again! Keep up the good work and I'll be following you every step of the way.
#6 - My wife will be happy about this one! She says my workouts keep getting longer and longer. I think she/and you are right. Def going to up the intensity/decrease volume. Thanks for the great tips!
I don't care much for this supplement stuff. I know plenty of people that got huge gains without supplements and they just seem like a tremendous waist of money that you could spend on healthier food choices.
Yeah its again a Supplement, sometimes you don't need it. It's usefull if you find yourself exercising at werid times due to your schedule so you can make sure you get certain things in.
I agree and disagree with your statement about supplements. Does a person need supplements for gains, no. However, there are meal plans that people will go on depending on their goals and may get a vitamin deficiency and will need a supplement to keep the body in check to keep that from happening. Also, supplements can help the body recover faster after a workout.
Jeff, so much of this resonates with me because of some similar past issues (e.g. low fat diet imposed by my well- meaning mother.....I was an HS athlete and it killed my stamina), belief that more more more = better, gave up form for speed, etc. And I paid the price through a couple of mid-level injuries and 2 major illnesses. But, I discovered your videos at the most perfect time as I'm building myself back up. Not so sure I can get the mass I'd like anymore, but whatever makes me strong is good in my book! Thank you for being so approachable and on target.
What he means is you either do 20 reps of 50kg or 5 reps of 70kg, you don't do 20 reps of 70kg. I pulled those numbers out of my ass btw just to give you the right idea :)
Quality versus quantity: - I just did 1000 reps...with the lightest dumbbells that I could find because i didn't want people to see me straining. - I just did 8 reps with the heaviest dumbbells that my body could lift because I don't care what people think about the way i look when i'm repping.

@slight o hand just going to the gym is an improvement and if he follows jeffs vids he will do it. Don't discourage beginners! no one knows it all boi
slight o hand ya no one cares, you’re sorta just a douche

I am scared of burpees. Gonna do that tomorrow at the gym. I love how honest you are, Jeff.
Me too

I'm 63, work 65-70 hours a week driving a tractor trailer. Up at 1am or 2am. 5 days a week. I have been lifting and running for over 45 years. The summer questions are "what do I do to look like an athlete?' I tell them about your website, subscribe, and get to work. There is no magic pill to take. Only hard work. I work out alone in my basement. You keep me motovated with great advice. Other drivers are thanking me for telling them about your website. It is awesome.
I have 3 rules for training and nutrition, 1. Every other day is bicep day 2. The other days are chest day 3. Eat 1 chicken breast per pound of body mass.
Do these 3 rules and only these 3 rules and maybe you'll be the size of Bradley martin, fairly small though because you'll never be the size of dom.
Jonathan Reke so if u weigh 140 pound so u must eat 140 chicken breast?
do this and you're gonna get chicken LEGS in no time
Are we training 6 days a week? 3 bicep and 3 chest days? i might struggle to eat 210 chicken breasts a day 😂
+Cowelly84 your not about that life then, might as well give up
Cowelly84 i might not really be all-knowledgeable here but it does seem to me that a two-day slit is a tad too limiting. i mean, like Jeff always says, try to keep your workout last less than an hour, preferably 40 minutes. and if you really want to bulk up symetrically, what do you need to work on? the biceps, shoulders, triceps, chest, forearms, core/abs, thighs, calves, maybe even your ass... see how much of it is there? i personally switched to a three-day cycle, Monday for the biceps and forearms, Tuesday for the chest/triceps and shoulders, Wednesday for the leg stuff and then all over again until Sunday when I rest

JEFF - Don't go from A to B, go from A-Z and really concentrate on each stage of the rep.
ARNOLD - Be "inside" the muscle.
Different words but same advice, excellent stuff.!
That is what I thought, also it literally applies no mater what are you training for.
I'm surprised how critical other Fitness experts can be of Jeff. I never felt like I was being sold anything. The sheer amount of information can be gloriously helpful.
Covid brought in a lot of noob youngsters who can't watch for more than 30 seconds. Jeff's videos, since the beginning, have been worthwhile and extremely insightful.
Unfortunately, these days the gymcels prefer negative content than a video with cold hard truths.
THIS GUY IS A FITNESS LEGEND! NOT THE DRUG ADDICTS THAT CAN WORK OUT FOR 3-4 HRS A DAY LIKE IN THE MAGAZINES
NYGiants Champs 'drug addicts' but yet you probaly drink, smoke.
BADTIMTAM you're missing the point. He's talking about steroid users.
deerrrrrp and what do you have a problem with them
"what do you have a problem with them?"
Not sure if troll or a steroid abuser himself. Steroid users act "natty" to their audience just to "motivate" their NATTY AUDIENCES to get ripped and monstrously big like them. How did they do that? Well, simply just lying "do this do that and you'll be as big as mine bro" without even mentioning that they're on steroid abuse. Now, to be fair, some of them did admit they use steroids, but tons of them refrain from being honest.
These dishonest cunts are what spread hatreds to the people. Don't give your audience false hope if you know they can't be as big as you without risky chemicals. Good for knowledgeable audiences, but for the ignorant ones, especially fitness noobs, it's too bad for them. They'd try steroids without ever thinking about the long term side effects or short term risks.
BADTIMTAM ummm wrong non of the above

To Anyone Who Is Reading These Comments, The Tip That Helped Me The Most Is Something That Jeff Says A Lot In Many Of His Videos. Shorten Your Workouts, Increase The Intensity.
Instead Of Spending Hours On Training, Reduce Your Breaks, Perform Reps Properly. You'll See So Much Progress.
Also Dont Capitalise Every Word In A Sentence
I was about to say the same thing although all were very informative.
-Jaden Smith
In all seriousness though, it can be hard to determine to what intensity I should be pushing for without breaking total form. If I'm opting for proper form then I can usually get 7-8 reps. Any heavier and it gets sloppy. So I always seem to work in a decent amount of volume and intensity.
I Read This Like Every Word Was The Start Of A Sentence
No doubt the best fitness advice online
Liking before watching anyone else?
whats up guys, jeff cav.. LIKE
I was new to lifting and this channel 4 months ago. In that time I’ve watched every video dead serious and put on 5 solid pounds of gains. Love you Jeff
You don't know me but you have literally SAVED MY LIFE
Post ur gains bro!
Right?!? Down 50lbs since october 8th. Advice here is my workout bible!
Brief story telling?
"Pull up a chair"... I'm sitting on the toilet, does that count?
Depends on how big of a dump you're taking 😳
1 year later, toilet club WOOT! 🚽
CD lol same 😂
*Jeff brings his chair into the bathroom and sits right in front of you.
Remember when you're pushing it is all about intensity not reps. Get it all out in one push and accelerate all the way through. You're not just trying to go from A to P, you're trying to push it right through the porcelain. Before you know it you'll have the sphincter of Adonis.
Jeff's lifting bible was magazines, and my lifting bible is Jeff. Looks like we've come full circle boys.
First you have to be in magazines, then you'll have come full circle
This man knows what he's talking about the best in the fitness industry
Jeff - I’m 51 with MS. when I learned a lot what ur talking about when I needed to lose 20lbs. Now learning how to readjust my workout with my disability. I again have lost 20 lbs that I gained as I figuring it out. Things u have taught me confirm that I needed to hear. Thank u.

I started lifting in the 90s too without internet and realized that there was no way I could learn to do it right without hurting myself in the long run. Now Jeff has motivated me to get back into it and his philosophy of doing everything with the long run in mind has me hooked.
Thanks Jeff and Let the Gains Begin!

He should of started this with "We need to talk". Most guys would have run away.
hahahah lol true
or "Can I ask you something?"...you already know its a question you dont want to answer.
Should have* should've* "should of" is not correct. Why do most americans make this mistake? Learn your own fucking language!
Seriously? The amount of assumptions you're making is insane. How do you know they're American? How do you know its the individual's first/main language? Next, the point they are making is a comedic one but instead you focus on a mistake. You should reevaluate your own life before you try to evaluate another's.
...says the guy who launches his post with a run-on sentence and uses "there" where it should be "their." Of course, correcting others' grammar and such in a casual chat thread without provocation is merely pedantic posturing; however, those who feel compelled to belittle others' grammar, spelling and such should make sure their own chops are up to scratch before embarrassing themselves and, by proxy, their supposedly superior cultural background.
This man here is why I'm going to be someone in the next few years or so. Thanks for all the gym wisdom jeff!
update on your fitness journey? if you ever continued on to become "someone"?
As a 57, yes a 57 year old man who has recently started going to the gym , not to bulk up but just try and keep active and not lift huge weights but moderate weights to try and stay in shape, thank you so much for providing me with so much good solid knowledge/information on this fantastic informative channel. It stands out from the rest of the mediocre channels. Keep it up. Much respect.
Checklist:
-vegetables
-fats
-slow reps
-doing stuff I dont like
my thighs are already beginning to hurt just thinking about it
Impossible to hate on this guy! Always sharing great knowledge
I'm so glad that I have the chance to avoid all these mistakes at an early age, because of these kind of helpfull videos, thanks Jeff!
I was working out for 90 mins and never saw any gains. When I started working out for 45 mins I almost immediately saw results from mass to longer pump
Same here. Especially when my work got more intense. I cut down on the amount of time in the gym and focused on fewer better exercises
What do you mean reduce time? When should you reduce the time to work out each day?
My problem is that I can not spend less than 45 min doin bench. I try cut it in half but it takes time to reach your personal best. So I start at half of what I can manage and increase five pounds a set. Reach my personal best, or slightly above, and do three or four more sets. After that it’s close to an hour! Is it too long or what should I do?
@@TobbeStorm I'd suggest just doing 6 sets of bench, I go 3 heavy sets, 2 medium weight sets, and 1 light, high rep set, just to really fatigue the chest, and then go do some other chest workouts like cables flies and dips
@@TobbeStorm overall, this should definitely cut the time shorter, and don't wait so long between sets, I try to wait a minute, 2 minutes at most
Sensible advice, literally the only guy on UA-cam worth listening to.

THANKS!
“I couldn’t open my eyes, I was losing my hair, but MOST importantly, my gains suffered”
your videos are so incredibly helpful, from posture to how to perform every rep, you are the first person i've found in the fitness industry that truly aims to help clients and not just get their money.
My exerphobia is triceps dips. Because a couple of times I leaned too much forwards and hurt my pecs real bad. Also, I have wonky shoulders so many times a dip was falling flat on my ass.
But these last two months are my newest stint in the gym and I applied Jeff's techniques and I am training smart, and then hard, and I got quicker results in two months than in the last stint of a YEAR AND A HALF.
Cuzjudd I was unable to stabilize myself while doing the dips. Also, I have impingement problems.
maybe u go too down on dips? shoulder mobility is important , if u didn't have that , it is for sure to have injury if u go to deep dips
same here bro..
Robert Markoš My exerphobia used to be lifting weights. As a women I've heard years of bullshit that lifting weight will cause me to end up looking like a man. Common sense kicked in... I'd have to lift like a man to look like a man... my 15# curls aren't going to give me manly bicepts.
Robert Markoš Go lower on weight, use the machines. Focus on the movement at a lighter weight and you'll build up strength while avoiding injury.
I won't tolerate sunshine either. It should be illegal.
FenderSchonJPX so u are a girl?
The word "diet"'s out my vocabulary from today
Jeff, watched so many of your videos. Back pain= gone, shoulder pain = gone, stiffness and feeling old= gone. Why? Your training. I owe you so much I'd donate to your cause for all the free content! You should let those who wish to donate put money into a charity for the free content! I owe a big thanks for your content. I'll never stop watching. You are making the world a better place and hope your benefiting financially as you deserve it .your hard work is admirable! Stay strong! I've become fit for the first time and started at 40! Thanks.
Back to school with Jeff even though it's Sunday
#1 the too low of fat was one that I was making. Once I added more fat into my diet, I began to get leaner and now I am the leanest I have ever been. I can see the veins laying over my abs, chest and shoulders.
Just good fat or the bad stuff too?
what kinda more fat you added in ya diet ? could you elaborate ?
I added mainly more of the good fats, but I did add more saturated fats as well. I just obviously try to avoid the Trans fats and hydrogenated oils.
What do you eat that's high in good fats apart from avocado and olive? i cant think
Eggs, Fish, Milk, Nuts, Legumes, etc.
Excellent advice! Things really changed for me when I forgot the “bodybuilding” world and thought of myself as an athlete, focusing on pushing my limits inside and out and loving the pressure of those last painful reps. I don’t look out; I look in and enjoy the workouts. I’d definitely agree with scrapping the bodybuilder magazines and just hitting the workouts like Rocky
One of rare youtube fitness people that gives a proper advise and knows whats he is talking about.
1. good fats .. yep flax / avocados.
2. training hard v training long. yep intensity is the key to gains.i think Jeff admits here he is an ectomorph so the lean look with be easier for him but gains are harder than for a meso / endo.
For the definitive education intensity google the colorado experiment ellington darden .
3. Supps. Yes and no. If you need gains you are gonna need protein to support those. How you get that protein is up to you , but easier to down a shake than a whole chicken.
4. Magazines. In most cases the workouts be the pros are isolation exercises ... they have already done the basic strength lifts to build a base. EG squats / deadlifts / bench/ shrugs imo pointless doing a side lateral for example before you have built core strength.
5. Avoid injury at all costs. You can't make any gains or you will suffer atrophy when you get injured. Therefore avoid. Warm up and do some defensive / mobility work b4 every workout. Once a month have a deep tissue massage once 8 weeks chiropractic help. Yep boring as fuck but prevention is better than cure.
6. Mix it up. Don't spend your life in the Gym. Do some low impact cardio for example outside the gym... E. G. Biking. Try muscle confusion ... don't do the same workouts over and over.
7. Don't waste time in the gym gassing.
8. Try to get a partner / spotter that helps and has a similar goal to you. If possible try to get one who has similar strength. Why ? S9 you don't have to keep in changing weights (applies mostly to barbell free weights).
9. progress. Either resistance or modify (see Jeff 's excellent vids on this topic... E. G his I hate plank vid).
Maybe Jeff could have a play list for progression vids ?
craigk621 thank you for saving me watching the entire vid! Now i can move on to the next vid
flax and avocados, are you kidding me? Coconut oil (the best concentrated source of good saturated fat, boost testosterone), macadamia nuts (the best concentrated source monounsaturated fat, boost testosterone), fish oil high in omega-3 (the best polyunsaturated fat, which you should be avoiding BTW because it LOWERS testosterone (of the three types of fat), but it's good for helping with inflammation and mental issues). Important note, vegetables for omega-3 leads to poor absorption of omega-3 in ALA form (i.e., get it from fish with no ifs, ands, or buts).
+SteelBlueVision ... coconut oil ... yep..and macadamia. .. also thumbs up.
I cook with coconut oil and love macadamia but it's difficult to "eat" a lot of coconut oil and macadamia nuts are way expensive here.
Avocados and flax no good ? why ?
i still dont get the part of high intensity work out though. i wonder if that mean i have to do workout with max weight i lift with lower reps?
SteelBlueVision bro cigarettes are the best for testosterone. dummy.
So many points of superb advice in this one! I'm impressed that he shares past mistakes. Also impressed he knows about micro-nutrients - so important! Thanks, I learned a lot - again!
Jeff you're a proper good geeza mate!!, cheers for the advice and all the free help on your channel!, I've been following your 7 minute abs workout every morning for almost 3 weeks now and I'm sticking to it forever mate!.I'm 44, back in training and loving it!!.
I found you at the right time when I joined the Gym 5 days ago. I watched almost 40 videos of you and you are the best and very helpful. Thank you and keep guiding us.
Have you been gymming well for these 9 months? Any advice?
Jeff your the best man. All i can think about is health and fitness all day everyday and i keep coming back to your channel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
This video was just what I needed to hear. Number eight is something I've struggled with for years. Just recently, I finally figured out a good balance between intensity and volume and my energy and strength levels have definitely increased. I also used to avoid barbell squats and deadlifts but now, along with overhead barbell press, they are my absolute favorite exercise.
Thanks for all your advise, Jeff!! Your channel has high value in my life!
44 years old myself and still working out consistently since I was in my teens. Thank you for being honest and sharing some of your experiences and tips. I have already started implementing some of them and not only am I becoming inspired again but I am having fun. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Jeff, I just finished AX-1 and I can’t wait to purchase Ax-2 at the end of this month. You have been very influential on my life. I can now train with no joint or body pain.
how are you looking rn?
Thank you so much for this and all your videos and programs Jeff! I'm 43 years old this month and I have also fallen prey to all of theses myths and mistakes. So much of this was an eye opener to me. Some of these 8 I was doing up until today!!-not anymore though;) By the way Jeff, I just finished week 11 of AX-1 and have already purchased my next program and I can't wait to start it!!! ((gotta hit my last 400 challenge (trying to beat 7:59) and my final exam first though-wish it were Monday already))!!!!. Anyway, your channel and stuff here has been changing my life, increasing my confidence, and I've been seeing noticeable results in my physique and my health so thanks again! Keep up the good work and I'll be following you every step of the way.
Veggies are everything. I've always been in good shape but since I started eating greens a lot more now I am ripped, crazy ripped
what kind of greens you eat? i have a hard time getting enough veggies
I eat all kinds, leafy, roots veggies, any kind the more the better. Try not to cook them, when you cook them they lose nutrition
Get it... i will try harder to eat more greens... thanks man
ur crazy ripped? really?
but... how can you eat veggies if you don't cook them ? (besides carrots and lettuce)
#6 - My wife will be happy about this one! She says my workouts keep getting longer and longer. I think she/and you are right. Def going to up the intensity/decrease volume. Thanks for the great tips!
Love all your videos Jeff. Keep it up, teach, preach, mythbust and tell it like it is! I appreciate you. You're the man, brother.
I don't care much for this supplement stuff. I know plenty of people that got huge gains without supplements and they just seem like a tremendous waist of money that you could spend on healthier food choices.
Yeah its again a Supplement, sometimes you don't need it. It's usefull if you find yourself exercising at werid times due to your schedule so you can make sure you get certain things in.
HoodieHydra other than protein powder, I think creatine is the only thing that works that's also very cheap but yes I do agree with u
I agree and disagree with your statement about supplements. Does a person need supplements for gains, no. However, there are meal plans that people will go on depending on their goals and may get a vitamin deficiency and will need a supplement to keep the body in check to keep that from happening. Also, supplements can help the body recover faster after a workout.
protein powder is cheap if you buy from one of those bulk sites.
I dont like Rich Piana. A guy who takes steroids gets no respect from me.
Definitely glad you kept it 💯 real and I learned a lot of what I need to stop doing and what I need to start doing
Jeff, so much of this resonates with me because of some similar past issues (e.g. low fat diet imposed by my well- meaning mother.....I was an HS athlete and it killed my stamina), belief that more more more = better, gave up form for speed, etc. And I paid the price through a couple of mid-level injuries and 2 major illnesses. But, I discovered your videos at the most perfect time as I'm building myself back up. Not so sure I can get the mass I'd like anymore, but whatever makes me strong is good in my book! Thank you for being so approachable and on target.
I didn't understand the last one: intensity vs volume. May you make a video about that? Thx!
put simply , he means how hard you workout vs how long you workout.
as he said , increasing your effort and decreasing time is better for gains
What he means is you either do 20 reps of 50kg or 5 reps of 70kg, you don't do 20 reps of 70kg. I pulled those numbers out of my ass btw just to give you the right idea :)
Quality versus quantity:
- I just did 1000 reps...with the lightest dumbbells that I could find because i didn't want people to see me straining.
- I just did 8 reps with the heaviest dumbbells that my body could lift because I don't care what people think about the way i look when i'm repping.
Ramón BS q
Ramón BS it just means the heavier the weight the lesser the reps, the lighter the weightthe higher the volume (reps)
