What about the ped usage? You would get so much appreciation if you said you were on anything even if it’s just test. People get more praise for being honest about it now days
I think he claims natty so thats why not speaking about it probs not sure
Search up british ped usage. So many people use it over there and claim natty. I dont blame him for not saying it but its pretty obvious.
Defo use of PEDs/anabolic steroids here I’m afraid to say!
Good one 🤣🤣
@@FreeDumb101 He’s not natural but he said to ppl you’re not gonna look like him which goes against that idea. I think he just lies bc it’s more fulfilling to have ppl think you’re natural
Mike what you didn't discuss was how your tan has changed over the past 10 years. Ideal tanning locations, sun tan oil protocol, and how many sessions of front n back are ideal for maximizing color gains.
Keep in mind this level of tan is not good for your skin.
He literally has a video detailing all of this
He was so pale white he must be using carrot oil.
i read tren instead of tan
@@ClassyLife No way Tren. Test at most if he were on tren the finastaride would not work for his hair loss which he would have lost more hair. Even anavar would make him lose more hair but test alone fin would control the hair loss as it inhibition effect on test would stop conversion to dht which is main culprit of hair loss. He is very motivated and his diet is right on point. Good luck to him even with strongest steroids most individuals wouldn't come close to looking like that.
Exercising can be really hard sometimes but It always makes me feel better. Last year I had almost 300 lbs in body weight. One day I just started moving more, then slow running then I started doing weighted exercises and I was eating clean by following meal plan I got from Next Level Diet. Today I have 200 lbs and I am happy like I never been in my life.
Yeah mate I'm the opposite to you, I have to make a big effort to put weight on. I definitely agree also its surprising how much better you feel when you've been at the gym training, it improves your mood and helps you mentally so much.
This is a good look into the life/mind of a perfectionist. Note how often Mike points out "inadequacies" in his physique or life at certain times. To the rest of us, we can't even see or detect any change because of how high Mike has set the bar for himself, it's truly quite impressive how dedicated he stays but it also must be quite stressful
Actually it's kind of sad that he finds fault during any of these years. It's not normal. Not really a good roll model for normal, average looking people.
true.
@@DDumbrille i disagree hes just being a realist...nobody is 100% perfect so why should'nt he point out any flaws he sees.....after all we all have them so i think its better to remind ourselves nobody is perfect
@@christianmills2674 Simple answer: Because they're NOT FLAWS.
@@DDumbrillewho the fuck would want to be a role model for average people? News flash, average Joes don’t make 10’s of millions a year based off how good they look
He is definitely one of the most motivated people on UA-cam.
He sure he is
He’s disciplined. Motivation comes and goes but discipline is consistent
He’s a positive person but also tells how even the best people with beautiful bodies go through a lot of ups and downs. Very interesting and informative.
As natural as Mike O'Hearn and Matt does Fitness
It’s unbelievable how delusional he must be to make people think he’s natural.
@@Illuminatty1988 ye.. its just silly at this point
But here you all are still 🤣
@Mmm0416 I agree with you. Kids who just strated lifting think that they can get this kind of phisique natural.
Forgot Simeon Panda
Loved stepping back in time with you mate. I’m remember you in your old flat in Leeds. Seems a life time ago. Feels like I’ve been on you journey with you. You’ve achieved so much and should be very proud. Look forward to the next ten years.
😎👍
It helps to know that even you have times where you wander a bit from your training. I sometimes get frustrated when I find myself not sticking to my diet but then again I'm 71 and my livelihood doesn't depend on it. I do think the fact that you come across as as a human makes you as successful as you are. I certainly thank you for helping me maintain a decent fitness level at my age.
Mike, I'm 24 years older than you and can relate to life's ups and downs - and they never end.
Your dedication to your training, health, and nutrition over the years is displayed in your physique.
Your awareness of how you looked and felt when you strayed from your nutritional plan is a testament to your commitment to be your best. Most people don’t have that awareness.
Keep up the great work!
Respectfully,
Mike Domenic
Most ppl dont take PEDs :)
There, I fixed it for you
If by "strayed away from your nutrition plan," you mean cycled off gear then you're spot on.
Great to know you go through the same things we all do. Sometimes when you just see the success and all the great moments from your videos, it can be deflating. Just knowing you went through the same shit and will continue to, is very humbling. Keep crushing it man.
Thanks Mike for showing us your journey. What is the most inspiring is your level of consistency over the years. Looking forward to the next vid. Many blessings!
These videos are genuinely the best, where you're just honest about life and everything
Amazing body, amazing tan, genuine dude, hard worker, dedicated, passion, consistent, seems like a great guy, engaging. I have to be that guy, this video is missing one major ingredient that should be discussed. Transparency is key
It’s inspiring to see how much you’ve transformed your whole life since working at Hollister 💯
God yea!! Forgot about that!
was he on the juice when he was working at holister? lol
Excellent video Mike! Followed you for several years, and you have always remained humble, grounded, and a pleasure to watch. Here’s to the next ten years. Cheers Mike.
This is what I needed to hear right now. I can very much relate to this in a different context.
Thanks Mike! Keep the content coming
Those are my favorite types of videos from you. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the vlogs as well but I really like when you just talk to the camera about your life experiences, fitness advices, lifestyle, etc... For example your video titlted "How I got to where I am today" was very motivating to get my life together and I improved a lot after watching it.
Thanks for sharing your journey as it shows that you go through ups and downs like us and we shouldn’t loose our motivation, because it also happens to the professionals also . Much appreciated mike.
Out of all your content I have seen this is the most real. Mad respect.
Takes alot of courage to be real about it. Stay humble and always a kind personality as you are. God bless you 🙏
The evolution of mike’s tan definitely adds to the god like physique
I love how thoughtful and composed you are as you speak. Felt engaged for the full 28 minutes!
Mike is someone I would envy but I can't because of how dang humble and honest he is. Much respect! Love your content, especially videos like this showing the timeline of your life. Very interesting.
@Mike Thurston - humble, genuine, relatable - all the way behind you mate - I'm taking your attitude and clarity into my own life situation - have done for years, appreciate your transparency and how you say it how it is, we're all human - there's too much fluff out there. Keep it up mate.
Very simple answer - gear doses started going up
You were already super jacked at 21. Juiced up
Thanks for sharing your story Mike it’s really inspiring to see the challenges you overcame.
You inspire us all the time! Even in your ‘’worst’’ moments, I don’t thing that you actually are … anyway, it’s okay to have bad days.We all have. You’re still an inspiration to us
Nice Trensformation 👏😉
Thanks for telling us that you went back home to live with your dad and brother. I like the honesty.
Another great vid. Thanks Mike. I love hearing the highs and lows of successful people. Ive been through some similar experiences myself.
this is a fantastic video Mike, so great to hear all the ups and downs. God bless mate.
how come you don't talk about the gear you obviously used..?
Uncle Mike‘s content is always soo helpful and motivating
I've been watching your videos for a long time and its my first time commenting actually, but i just felt an urge to comment right now. 2021 was actually a "bad" year for me and i totally empathize with you when u said 2016 was a terrible year for you. My four year relationship was over, lost my female best friend, quit my military job due to injury and i just wanted to change my life. Currently trying to find a job in Dubai after living in lisbon all my life. This just to say, you are an inspiration, and all of us go through tough times but still endure... Congrats from Portugal and keep going!
I have physical freedom and compassion listening to you. Seeing your physique go through changes makes me want to smash weights and conquer the world. I just have to resume. The hardest thing is always social for me, aka girlfriend who I love but is hard to set boundaries with lifting. I love you Mike and I look forward to this personal content you make!
It would be cool If I could come even close to that physique at one point of my life. But for now I have a lot of fat to burn. I hope I will be slim before summer. I even got personalized meal plan from Next Level Diet. It's a hard journey in front of me, but I believe in myself.
You won't without some form of roids.
Work hard and stay disciplined. Go crazy with your workouts but have fun with them. Don’t work to the point of dreading them. Throw in different rep ranges and shoot for full body workouts. Get your heart rate up doing them circuits, alternate sets, etc. Get creative and enjoy
@@kaodnewq8396 there's always some dumbass that has to ruin it and comment this. We are all aware. They said "If I could come even close" hinting that they most likely won't
Good luck brother!
@@kaodnewq8396 maybe that's sad truth :(
Them tanning gains truly remarkable... noticeable improvement is the musculature development as well
Mike, its good to know that even though you look pretty damn amazing you still went through your struggles. People think to look that great you must have such an amazing life. They don’t see the daily struggle, lonely nights, and sacrifices. Thank you
Motivating 100% thanks for sharing this with all of us.
I work as a Personal Trainer, and it's really inspiring and impressive how you constantly have been improving your physique over the years. Not only that, but how far you have come in terms of financials and status.
I've followed you for a couple of years now, and it was a breath of fresh air getting this recap, because i can relate to constantly be on the grind with all these challenges in life. Love it.
are you got the body as Mike? personal trainer should have it
@@mohamadhariz9613 you have such a way with words.
hop on cycle and watch your clients triple
@@mohamadhariz9613 mike is not natural and even with PEDs his physique is still damn impressive. So no a personal trainer should not have to look like mike
My man was saucy since day 1
Mike training and dieting does get harder as you get older, I’m 52 now and I’ve just upped my game thanks to watching your videos bro! So motivational, keep making content cause you’re very good at it.
This guy is such an inspiration 🙌 🙏🔥
So beautiful to see that he's this honest. You can learn a lot and have some fast results when you're listening to a guy like him. You have to acknowledge his honesty, knowledge and his motivation. 🙏💪😍
Would love to know your cycle.
well 10 years + TRT and some other shit
Well you're never going to get it.
Been watching Mike for years. His maturity is still one of his best qualities.
If only he were honest
Agreed
Explain what you mean when you say maturity? Isn’t he a serial bachelor?
@@CarianneRHixson Huh ? How’s that related to maturity hater ?
He’s the classiest Batchelor alive :)
@@CarianneRHixson So, you're gonna go ahead and shame someone that's worked hard and made it in life, simply because he's enjoying that life that he has built? If this were said about a female, there'd be hell to raise lol you're toxic. Any person in his position would be stupid not to enjoy the single life and the fruits of their success; female or male. Why be held down at all at this point?
Great job on consistently posting with great videos! Love it man!
Just pure resilience. The main constant I see in this video is your ability to get through distraction and deviation and focus on your goal. That is something that few people have, which is also why you are so successful.
I think what we can all take from Mikes great video is life’s a rollercoaster get on and enjoy the journey.
The highs and even the lows.
I took away from this video that he is on PEDs.
Loved watching you grow over the years (literally and figuratively). Those highlights gave me good memories of being at work, going to the gym then rushing back home to watch one of your videos. It's been a crazy few years. You will continue to progress in life and I am certainly looking forward to seeing it. Legend!
Yo yo Ali Machan!
Ever since I stumbled upon you in mid 2017 I knew I was getting advice and learning from someone who knows his shit. Keep smashing it fam
Mike you're an awesome individual. Thanks for sharing, times of self improvement can be brutal! Im in it now. Happy to see you in a better place. All the best. Happy New Year!
As Natural as Mike O'Hearn
Such a great story mike! One of the best fitness youtuber for sure but when did u first start to take juice and whats your cycle was?
It’s really inspiring to watch, but also a clear reminder that without financial freedom it can be extremely difficult to achieve the same goals and gains.
I have found myself watching your videos daily since my recent HT as I stopped drinking nearly 3 years ago, for the same reason as you, and you have some great motivational content.
Thanks for sharing Mike. I have followed you for a long time. Thanks for inspiring me to be better!
My takeaway: the diude got progressively more tanned every couple of years :P
Thanks for keeping it real bud! A consistent journey of ups and downs but each time moving to the next level to see a new high and low. The underlying theme is continuous progress.... Much love!
Keep making great content man. You live a life many of us would dream to have. Looking forward to seeing where your journey takes you next, while I work to unlock a life of adventure and fun similar to yours.
I just realized i've watched you since 2017. Wow. Thank you for 5 years of great content Mike.
I remember watching the first video of this when he was a teenager. He had about 4,000 subs! Mad to see how you’ve flourished Mike 🥳 You are a legend and inspired me to start UA-cam myself- so thank you 🙏
His first UA-cam upload was April 2016, if I remember rightly. He’ll be 32 (?) in August...
Can you do a more detailed video on cycles and doses? And where you buy tren etc thanks
Fantastic video, appreciate the transparency
We all have the story to share. Achievements require sacrifices and it is all about when you trying to create things you should expect resistance… Thank you for sharing not only the bright side of the journey ❤
That was a great watch Mike. So difficult to stay so consistent for so long.
Chemistry bro
At 10:06. Here's the secret to being happy--keep friends around. I feel that in 2014 through 2017 you isolated yourself too much, focusing too much on working out, working with clients and just being a housebound, isolated person. You didn't set up a friend network where you could vent, where you could relax and chill during the weekends or down times. So you looked to food for the comfort friends would've given you. You also tended to make another mistake--you concentrated all your emotional needs in your romantic relationships. That's also unhealthy because romantic relationships tend to break up, and when a break up happens, there goes 90% of your friendships. That's not good. What you learned to do in 2018 was not to put all your emotional eggs in one basket, and you set up a friend network. You socialized a lot more. And that kept you much more psychologically even-keeled, and you were happier as a result.
Really agree with that honestly, friends are for life girls come and go. Many young men need to understand that a good circle around you is vital. Can’t agree anymore with your comment
Good analysis being in good comapny is the eaises way tobe a hapier perosn
@@raiyyan2031 Yep. Too many boys and young men in our culture are socialized to think that "going it alone, all the time" is an acceptable way to live. Mike Thurston here seems to have fallen for this fallacy. Nope. That's one of the surest paths to depression, anxiety and general unhappiness. No human being can be an island unto himself. Keeping a good circle of friends around--especially during the hard times, when shit is falling apart in your life--is a basic building block to happiness.
Me right now. Been isolating myself for so long, almost never with my friends anymore. Feel so sad. Now it almost feels weird to text them. Don’t really know how to come in contact with all my friends anymore
@@Hittlinho Just text them. They'll understand if you give them context as to why you've isolated yourself for so long--depression, etc. I think some of them will let bygones be bygones and welcome you back to the fold.
You are an inspiration Mike - keep keeping on .
Great video Mike! Thanks for sharing your story and the ups and downs of your physique journey. As you mentioned, consistency is the key and that has always hampered me. I was able to help my younger son - thanks to covid and a garage gym - find his athletic & career path in life through the lessons I learned. Listening to your story and watching him has also given me great insight. Thanks and keep at it!
Great video- one thing I would say though, don’t obsess over your physique, there’s much more to life than obsessing over your physique. As long as you’re in good shape that’s the main thing, who cares if one year you aren’t quite as ripped etc.
Great comment this. Exactly why I’m going to Ibiza in august to have a good time, not gonna worry if I’m not in my best shape cos I know I already look good lol👍🏻.
@@daemontargaryen2312 exactly, it boarders on body dysmorphia obsessing that much, and actually shows someone who’s quite insecure deep down.
But you have to bare in mind that his income is based around how he looks.
@@MR12AMAZING yes, he not only has a top tier physique but his face is also very attractive. Mike is lucky he has it all going on for him.
Juicyyyyyyyy lmaooooo mans show ready all year, buy MyProteine supplements guys, don't forget to use THURSTON code at checkout! You will get as shredded as me juiceeeeeeeee
He aint show ready all year round. That kinda takes some respect off rue guys that do shows.
Watching this video made me realise that I've been watching since day 1 wao. Haven't miss a single video, you are amazing brother.
Great for sharing the up and downs mike.
Trenything is possible
The early 30s are the period when you are the strongest. At least that's how I felt. You still have a good ten years ahead of you, but yes, the level of physical energy and, as I call it, "physical enthusiasm" for training, decreases with the approach of the 40's. When the early 40's come, you feel like your batteries are at 50%. You know you should train, you do it as an obligation but there is no more pleasure, and over time you work less and less. When that time comes, don't be tempted to take chemistry. You will be tempted especially if your earnings and status are still directly related to your appearance.
I 100% agree with this
@Anonymous
Don't do it, you will ruin your life
@Anonymous dude, if your testosterone has dropped significantly in your mid 20's, then something is very wrong. That's not normal.
U are delusional of u think he's not already on chemistry...u fans will believe anything..
This is definitely my favorite video of yours!
Humility + Hard Work = Success! Well done Mike. A really good take.
Genetics + Roids + A lot of hard work = This.
The thumbnail shows how you transformed from a caucasian guy to a latino guy 🤣 good job bro
Mad respect ✊🏼, this was really inspiring
You’re a true inspiration Mike, I’m gonna meet you some day! 💯
My dad comfortably benches over 300lbs at age 62. Trains with unbelievable intensity. Age is just a number.
I’m a swimmer ..I swim 3km a day .6 times a week ..
I find this is enough to keep a lean mean physic .
Swimming has shaped me to a perfect v shape with broad shoulders..
What do you think of swimming Thurston ?
cardio plus weights in one. It's definitely one of the best.
Do you swim solely for your physique or are you swimming for performance and the physique just comes with it?
@@athleticcigsmoker I swim because I just love it ..it’s an addiction .
The physique will just happen .the water molds you .
I feel it benefits me in so many ways .. outdoor cold water is the best ..I never swim in indoor heated pools .
Mike only swims to show off his thurstwear/quad
@@paulrobertclayton5352 that’s awesome fam keep doing ya thang ✊🏽✊🏽
I truly enjoyed listening and watching you tell your story. Cheers
Always inspiring Mike! I just turned 47 a week ago and although harder to get in the shape i want, discipline and perseverance (both of which you already know), are key!. Keep the good work and….hey….a cold one every now and then will be no harm 🍻
The answer is steroids
bruh you forgot to tell us your cycles and dosage for each year
Your a top bloke Mike and an example of how good the human body can be, through hard work and eating right.
Wonderful video, you're a big inspiration and changed my life.
When r u competing ?
Your physique has changed a lot , you've transformed from a caucasian into a samoan
But but have you not seen his dad . Big muscular bodies run in his family, maybe Mike's mum is built like Samoan? He does seem like a likeable guy and works hard to keep his physic but gets some extra help.
Brother, 2016/2017 I relate so much. Genuinely being unhappy and resorting to food for comfort, life really isn't going ur way, I get it brother. Glad you came out of it I'm still struggling in that regard but things are looking up. I find success and achieving your goals is when a man is truely happy... God bless
How much you grew! It’s incredible! Very inspiring for a lot of us
I rather wonder how you changed from white british guy to a dark tanned latino
''How steroids changed my physique over the past 10 years?''
When you look at his dad seems more than likely or trt.He works hard but definitely had some help.
I love you Mike. I haven't watched your videos for a while now bcuz school but videos like this one are very nice to watch. I remember I also watched a video like this you did in 2020 when I was training the hardest and you said if I am studying or have some sort of exams coming up, focus on them now and I can train later in life when exams are over. So I wasn't training a much but then covid came and I stopped training all together. Now I am starting to train again and your videos are definitely worth watching. Thank you.
Mike, you're awesome man! What I like about you the most is how genuine, honest and humble you are and the humor too. Respect!
He would be the most honest if he would admit he is not a natty. Humble and humor i agree but you should be honest to ypur followers who still think this is natty
@@rverhoeven6993 wow does he still claim natty
This guy seriously needs to show his Blood work. Ideally blood work throughout this journey.
Hollister doesn't know what they lost
I really enjoy these types of videos from Mike..
Bloody hell Mike some real honesty there nice to hear your ups and downs
