he can still start that journey and eating healthier and exercising today. I believe in you, man
He can get fit, but he misses his twenties and he can't do anything about it
@@leobender2910 wrong. he can learn from it
@@leobender2910 Iâm only a few years younger than this guy but Iâm in great shape and thereâs no way Iâd go back to my 20âs. If you can learn one thing from these videos itâs that being a good shape is the #1 predictor of how happy or miserable u are as u age.
â@@ColdForceNorsehis youthfulness has gone. He can't relive being 20 but yes he can still enjoy life
â@@ColdForceNorse wrong. You can't do anything about missing your 20s
He thinks it's too late to start now, it's a limiting belief. I'm 40, and just started 6 months ago. You couldn't tell my age by my body.
So fair to say people are surprised when you tell them your age?
@@depurasangre86 I don't!
â@@therenaissanceman441Would you say you now get a lot more attention from the opposite gender? Since you're 40 and look way better than people of the same age physically speaking. Most 40s guys in America don't look well, so, if you 10 years younger that'll stand out
@@henri6595 I've always been blessed that way, but yes both genders have been taking notice.
@therenaissanceman441 You're the 3-4th person to mention similar outcomes from people I've asked. It seems being fit or just regular looking in your 40s is like sporting a unicorn. Keep up the good job!
This guy seems to me to be the sort of fella youâd want as a friend. Super genuine.
And as a 46 year old who has lost 25kg in the last year and a half and run 400 miles in 2023, I can confirm itâs never too late to start altering your fitness!
These kind of dudes usually are the best kind of bosses or managers to work with because they are genuine, have emotional intelligence and will kick your ass home with a cheeky smile if you work too many days in a week or pick up too much overtime. They make sure your work-life situation is balanced and sustainable, which ironically makes you feel more appreciated and you donât mind working harder. I wish the guy in the video all the best and hope he gets back on his fitness journey.
He is not proud of his physical man but he looks like a genuine and kind man to me!
Yeah, but most women would never date him.
â@@paulheydarian1281 why? He seems like cool guy
@@JuicyLoop Women are very choosy. This guy doesn't make the cut. It's quite simple.
â@@paulheydarian1281 bro that's not even slightly true. touch grass pls
@@mrtrev4496 I'd use the 80/20 rule. 80% wouldn't touch him. The bottom 20% of women are so deflated, they have very few options.
It seems that the only problem of this dude is his physical Fitness, that's great because you can achieve so much in just 1 year.
He could be the happiest guy in just one year, that would be so awesome â€ïž
I really like him. I like how he is leaning from his life and he is very honest with himself! What a good guy.
What do you mean a year he can do it in 90 days you can lose 40 lb easily just go on the keto diet like I did and it came off slowly at first because it's mostly water but no carbs and no sugar will do the trick
@@U4Eye He is heavily overweight, 90 days aren't enough. I also lost 30 lbs in 90 days that's totally doable but he needs to lose at least 100-150 lbs. Slower is also better because of the skin and the muscle losses.
â@@U4Eye The part where most people fail is actually maintaining weighloss.
A crash diet doesn't lead to actually having better habits and people regain the weight, and some more.
@@U4Eye keep it slow, why hustle, you're not working for anyone else you're losing weight for yourself
Iâm 39, grew up really poor, and from the time I was 12 Iâve worked and havenât stopped working. I sacrificed my health and everything to get out of poverty. Didnât have fun, didnât travel, put work in front of my health. Now I have a good job, a house, out of poverty. And while I think working is important especially to get out of poverty, all the work caught up to me and my physical and mental health has massively suffered. Agree with this guy: Take time for enjoyment, for self care, and for health. In the end you canât enjoy much without good health.
I appreciate this post so much. I just turned 37yrs old and am at a pivotal point with my health from fighting myself out of poverty also.
I'm considering getting out of the healthcare field, because, within a year my health took a toll. I'm wanting to cut back on hours and live a simpler life, but cutting back is going to take some time. I'm hoping I can make it happen while there's still time. Thank you for your sage advice. đâšïž
39 is the new 29 stay positive! Let's get it đȘ đ
Good health is what that counts most to be able to enjoy life especially when traveling
I think everyone would have done the same in your position. Being poor isn't fun. I can't imagine how many little things (starting from food) you can't have because if you do you'll put at serious risk your entire family
And 'good health' includes 'mental health' , amen !
When younger people look at more grown adults, they see them as boring and unattractive, but you also gotta remember that these people did hooligan stuff and were once in good shape and probably did way cooler things than us. Itâs important to listen to older people because they always have advice that can change your life. Iâve had a 60 year old veteran tell me randomly at work that I should never wait for my parents approval to do something for myself like perusing a career, because theyâre not gonna be taking care of me much longer when theyâre gone
i needed this! I appeciate that you decided to write this
@@mistersir3185 Iâm only 26 but I know in a couple decades, the younger crowd will think the same thing about me as well, as well as other gen z âkidsâ
43 years old? He's at the beginning of middle age this guy still has a great opportunity for a complete transformation for the latter years of his lifeđ
fr bro hasnât even lived half his life yet
As an almost 40 yr old that wants to compete in the IFBB this makes me feel its still very possible and Im the one setting the age limitation..
76.1 for white males in the US. 38.05 the half way point. Sheeesh.
Even if he was middle age you can still make a difference
Middle age is like 50s and regardless of if you have lived have your age, 40s are still young so he should do what he wants to while he can.
I get kind hearted and happy go lucky vibes from him. The weight can always come off but not everyone is inherently kind or nice. He's already a winner
So do I.
f yeah
Yes he has a genuine nature about him
Yes, I was also getting this real positive vibes of him! *-*
Totally agree!
This man seems very humble :)
I wanna cry. I needed to hear this..
God (Jesus) allowed you to see that video because he knew you needed to see it.
@@JesusForgivesSins Jesus is not God. He was a servant of God who was sent to preach Godâs message to the Israelites. We should worship the Creator, not the creation :)
*Jesus said, âNow this is Eternal Life: that they know You, the ONLY true God, and Jesus the Messiah whom You have SENT.â* _(The Gospel of John 17:3)_
Iâm a Muslim by the way, but I know the Bible well enough to quote these passages. Jesus definitely never claimed to be God. He was the Messiah, which means âthe anointed oneâ-because God chose him. Yet God Himself is not chosen by anyone.
Peace (Shalom).
Sending you hugs đ€
When I was young my dad would always be working and we hardly ever saw him. In my 20s I was working 6 days a week 11 or 12 hour days often away from home for around 7 years. I realised I was doing the exact same thing as my dad and changed careers. Now I'm only doing 6 hour days 5 days a week and get to pick up my son from daycare and hang out with him every day until his mother gets home. Obviously I don't get paid anywhere near as much as I did but the time I get to spend with my boy is priceless.
Don't let daycare and minders raise your kids.
We don't know what nightmarish things they're doing.
Your kids we won't thank you later.
"Cat's in the cradle"... Excellent choice man! Thumbs up!
â@@Kitiwakeour daycare is awesome. Even if we had the means, we would choose daycare. Socializing at a young age is important for our family.
â@@KitiwakeJust stop. Just like you can choose jobs. You can choose where your child gets their education. Yes, woke ideology is getting tiring but so is progressive fears of being oppressed.
Definitely...your time with your boy is priceless...soon he will grow up, be a young man...lots of things you can do together...so enjoy & love your loved ones...
Gotta love hearing that kind of wisdom from a guy who presents as a salt-of-the-earth kind of guy. We've all been bamboozled into trading our youth and energy to build the dreams of rich older people.
Facts
Youâll never get where you want to be working for a company for 40 years.
@@Neeeg I feel that. I'm not afraid of any job though, but when you get a job you have to think quietly something like this "the moment I step in here, I need to be working my way out (or up)". I worked in a lot of shit jobs. I could never once understand people so happy about getting a job. Nothing to celebrate. Jobs are for financial security. Getting some job is not the finish line. Real success is the success of own personal achievements.
â@Conormcnproductions Great thinking and along the lines of what I've discovered for myself these last few years! I think my personal success will be climbing Mount Everest if I'm lucky enough to attempt it. Life is kind of short and one shouldn't be held back by the doubts and disbelief of people who are too scared to even try stuff!
â@@blasphimustrue true that , there are both versions or viewpoints or truths to everything or every matter in general . And this is also true .You are saying the truth .
It depends on the persons capability beliefs ,needs and life satisfaction on what he should pursue , whether job or business .
Many a times small business owners life is very hard .
Firstly most business owners work more than 9 to 9 compared to 9 to 5 .
90 percent businesses shut shop in 5 years .
Only some are able to delegate and grow In such a manner that they can be rich (time and money ).
So yeah it's tough out there for the small guys in general .
My dad was quite a workaholic, died last year at the age of 64.. like a month or two after retirement. It made me realise that I need to just live my life because it's short and precious
His energy and spirit appear so much younger than the 55 years he claims to feel. I hope you achieve all you wish to have âŠyouâve got this bro â€
I agree. My sister just died, 29 years old. It gives you a new perspective...life is not about money or the things you think you want. It's love, love towards family and friends
I'd like life to be so much more; more than just chatting and laughing with familiar people. If the central value to life is no more than that, then it's a lame existence in the grand scheme of things. Life as it stands today is lame and circular and about survival. People interaction is insufficient.
Hope youâre good
â@@bengsynthmusic nothing here lasts either way, jus enjoy it till we see our creator âšïž we can get reward that lasts forever tho
@@TheSweetScienceGOAT I'm surviving, thanks Pep
Sorry for your loss man. At least u will get to be with her again one day in forever peace. Head up man, and make sure u do everything to make her proud of u :)
Health really is wealth
I love how everyone always says money isnât important when it comes to these interviews. Iâm 26 and constantly stressing about money but after seeing many people advising against it, it really gives a sense of relief
Hi there! I'm 31. It was about when I reached 30 that I realized money isn't important. Well, it's not exactly that. The actual lesson is that time is not equal to money, though many will try to make you believe it is.
Money isn't all that important to people who have plenty of money and don't have to worry about it anymore. That is going to almost always be people who are in their 30's -40's and beyond. Rarely will you find somebody who is barely scraping by and stressing about paying their bills telling you that money isn't important.
100% I'm 23 and that is what I am seeking. A balance of work and enjoying life while reaching goals. No matter what you do, you will experience regret, pain, whatever... but you can live with it. The best thing is to work on yourself and be around people you love.
Money is important. The things you use to live productively are also important. What's not important is materialism. As a 44 year old, I would tell my younger self to not worry about buying expensive things and portraying an image. One should instead focus on productive things like working and learning. I fortunately figured this out in my 30s, but I was a real douchebag in my 20s.
Nothing wrong with learning from your mistakes
@@gerRule yes, but it's a hell of a lot better to learn from the mistakes of others.
Money is important depending on where you live. In the Caribbean it's not depressing on your mindset. "Work when you have to work to earn money"
I would teach my younger self more financial literacy and saving, budgeting and paying bills on time, focus on credit, money comes but sustainability is key for me.
@@blackblack4301 money never hurts. You should put some away for later, since there comes a time in most people's life when it's not so easy to get up and work.
I really wish the best for this guy, he seems so genuine
What a lovely guy
Such a nice person. I wish him good luck.
and to everyone who read this too :)
you too

Cheers

Thank you
Why is dude acting like itâs too late? Eat healthy and exercise now!! You can potentially be in even better shape than you were in your 20s. Put in the effort!! đđœ
Because he is tired now, like he said he feels like he in his 50s he tired đ
@@Butterfly_47 He feels like he's in his 50s and tired because he doesn't take care of himself and exercise, GUARANTEED.
As someone who used to be overweight, I can validly say it's just an excuse. Even the bare minimum of exercising 10 mins a day will make a world of difference. That and stop over consuming factory processed food. It's not that hard to get into decent shape. It's more mindset than anything else.
My dad is a lot like this man. About as obese as he is but as happy as can be with 3 children, a job he enjoys, but he too feels its too late to get into shape again. His reason however is because his sister was 2 or 3x his size and she lost a lot of weight but it stayed as skin flabs and he doesn't want to look like that. However, his sister died from heart failure due to her obesity.
He will feel better when he gets in shape
The real reason is that there are no women to get in shape for. His wife is probably old, fat and wrinkly and women in their prime don't want him, so what is the point in looking better.
Heâs already broken the glass ceiling by admitting he could be healthier, good shit man. Seems like a good dude
His Doctor, his wife, his gay lover, his family, have all called him a fat fuck so barely he at the acceptance stage.
@@JPSimen damn man brighten up a bitđ€Łđ€Ł just tryna compliment guy
That's not what 'breaking the glass ceiling' means at all đ
He is genuine
This guy is very sympathetic. Nice guy
Nice guy⊠what a compliment
Wrong use of that word
This guy has a beautiful face and is clearly not all that comfortable in his skin at the moment, I know that feeling. He gave great advice and did mention a couple of times that he's out of shape. He's a good looking guy and it's never to late to improve on the outside. He seems like a nice guy đđŸ
I'm 29 (with 8mo left), and I completely feel this dude. All I did throughout my 20s was clock in, clock out, save $$$ RELIGIOUSLY, work EVERY holiday, stayed away from bars, clubs, dating, traveling, car(s), shiny things, and anything that would cost me extra money. Then after I snapped & quit my last job, I spent a number of months just living off my savings, and burned so0o much of it in such a short period... I'm glad I was disciplined enough to build my ability to live off savings, but I could've been having muuuch more fun & adventurous experiences during my prime yrs.
Spoken like true gentleman â€
Dude is most definitely a dad. He comes across really well and I'd say he's his kids hero
He still has time to turn things around. At forty- three, I was still at the top of my game. I'll be sixty-eight in a few months, and am thankful that I'm still physically capable of having a full life.
This guy is so wise and right about everything that he talked about.
I really like people's sincere response.
He seems like a Really sweet ,kind Man not bad looking either He's Definitely spitting Truth.
He did 13 years manslaughter
Everyday! ....... More lies!
@@wileecoyote5749 ?
I get that he regrets working so much in his 20s, but I think that also comes from a "grass is greener" mentality--he's able to relax because of the seeds he planted early.
I personally don't look back at my teens or early 20s as anything to be fond of. The people around me weren't very inspiring to be around. I wasn't in a position to interact with the world in the way I wanted, so I got to it. I worked very hard, kept my mind and body in pristine shape, and shut out the world. I accomplished many important things. I only made time for the most important people in my life. I explored what I felt was important to build a good foundation for life.
Yes, I don't have the craziest social circle or many crazy fun stories to tell, but I *have* amassed a good base of wisdom, knowledge, money, and success that will carry me into my 30s and beyond. I treat what I have learned as gems, they are that valuable to me and others in my life. I am in tip-top physical shape, I eat well, and sleep great. I have my dream job with great work-life balance, and spend time off-work doing what I want to do. In other words, I can do whatever the hell I want, and I have a firm base for stability and happiness.
Don't limit yourself in your youth by trying to "find happiness" too soon. Be in the present moment, but plan intelligently for the future.
There's a balance, you can work and work and work and not get anywhere and/or you could die in your 30s and spent most of your time working
Proud of you man. Im 24 and Im trying to do the same
Yeah I never understood why people always discourage trying to get rich and be successful. Iâm 19 and itâs insane how many things people tell me that I have to just disagree with and be goal oriented
I agree wit you as someone extremely ambitious myself but Iâll tell you now, your looking at life with rose tinted glasses assuming your going to live long enough to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Iâm not saying this to be morbid Iâm being real. No one wakes up knowing that would be the last time. You HAVE to balance enjoying your life with your goals even if it takes you a few more years to accomplish them. Iâve seen people die the day they graduate. Just something to consider but I wish you success and you def have the right mindset
Mild counter perspective: I accomplished most of what I set out to do in my 20s and achieved my dream life. It felt good initially but ended up feeling empty. I got really good at chasing goals, striving for the future, but never learned how to just be. And the funny thing is a lot of the major points that led to achievement were sparked by luck--right place right time situations. I likely would have ended up equally successful regardless of any plans and goals I set or didn't set.
So I'd say put the emphasis more on living and enjoying now. Yes you still need some general direction, but it's a small piece. You'll end up where you need to be and you can't really control the results that much anyway.
Boy is that Man telling the TRUTH ALL THE WAY. HE HIT ALL OF IT, HE IS RIGHT, LIFE IS SO SHORT.
I like this dude. Heâs keeping it really real. He was super vulnerable too which is a rarity. Good on him.
He can definitely still live his dreams . Itâs never too late . Just start now . We all gotta start somewhere
My stepfather was about 40 yrs older than me and when I told him I was a bit concerned because Iâd just turned 40 he burst out laughing and said it was the funniest thing heâd heard in years. He lived to be 94.
Thats a blessing man. These are cherished memories.
He seems like a genuine guy and gives good advice đ Best of luck to you sir, you can always improve yourself everyday no matter where you are in life. Compare yourself to who you were yesterday. Be your own competition!
I'm also 43 and train nearly every single day since I'm 15 years old. I also work so so much (IT manager) and have a happy family, and have fun with friends and go to lot of events, read a lot of books, sleep 7/8 hours a day, drink 2 liters of water a day, and many many things more.
I feel like a 30 to 35 years old dude but with plenty of more experience.
But be careful, life is much more than that... it is not just a to-do-list, you can have all these nice things checked but feel empty/alone/sad/etc.
Have a happy holiday all of you!
Worked 85hr+ a week 18-26 farming. 31 now and doing 40ish hours.
This guy knows, yeah it's nice to have fancy nice things but not everyone gets to have that life. Enjoy what you DO have and "send it bro"
I don't enjoy having fancy things, I always knew they were worthless crap
Hard work is good whilst also prioritising fitness and health alongside it. It can be done! Keep it up champ!
đ€ Right, send it!
Thatâs funny, Iâm the same age as that dude and I totally will give a different advice to my younger self.
Iâm in great shape and super healthy, I even feel and look younger than my age.
However in my 20âs I spend a lot of time enjoying life. I travel all over the world and meet lots of people. I expend more time having fun and expending time with people who I thou i love, life friends and family members. I never took like to extreme like to much party and drugs, however I did expend lots of energy and time in having fun.
If I could do it all over again Iâll have expend more time in my career and learning more stuff. Creating a better future for my self. Making a family, expending less time with friends, because guess what those friends are not longer my friends.
I guess life is always greener on the other side
Do or do not. You will regret it either way.
Thank you for the advice.
â@@shaneacton1627 life will always be full of regrets sadly
We should always know how to balance it. Work and having time for enjoyment. :)
Spend is the word you are looking for my brother
The best thing about this channel is making me realize what should I prioritize as I do my goal setting this 2023.
Heâs still young! He can restart and take the advices he just made. Thanks for sharing!
Itâs not too late my brother, Iâm 42 and just started going to the gym 3 months ago and Iâve lost 25 lbs
Never once did he say it was too late, he seems happy where he is so why even make a comment about it?
@@erict455
đđ It's called being supportive.
@@erict455 and hes making a comment because despite being happy, his weight is still not healthy
Try not to encourage fatphodia. There was nothing wrong with how you were before. Weight has nothing to do with oneâs health. Itâs just a far right talking point.
Fcking champ, love on you bud. Stay focus on what matters to you.
43 is young. Health is the number one priority. That guy seems genuine. Hope he can find his motivation to get in shape and enjoy life.
Damn shout-out to this man God bless him â€đđŸ
So glad I have his mentality at 25 cause bruh I was almost about to throw the rest of my 20s away if I didnât open my eyes
I burned up my 20s and 30s focusing on work. Huge mistake! 22 years of trying to please, and I am today, where I would have been all that time if I did it different. Enjoy you life, wife, and kids!! It really is all that matters.
I bet all that work paid off. how much money do you make now?
I love him, what a great guy!
It's never too late my man! YOU GOT THIS!
I love this guy. He needs to know that he's awesome and that there's still time. So long as you're breathing... there's time. đ
He's got a good attitude. I hope he only prioritises his health after he sees this. In order to spend the time with his loved ones.
Im 38 and completely agree with him. My 20âs were spent working 16-20 hr days in the military. Can never get them back.
Iâm 51 now. In my 20s I worked 55-60 hrs per week. My career was the most important thing. I also worked out every day and ate like Jack LaLane. I was in the best shape of my life. In my 30s I began to get into higher positions at work, which only caused enormous stress and inevitably led to weight gain and depression. My 40s arrived and the hardships in life began to subside. I started back up with my fitness regimen but itâs 10x harder now that my body was older and Iâve been out of it for a decade. Iâm now 51 and promise myself that my 50s will be better than my 20s. I just need to get that 26 year old mindset back. But thatâs hard to do when your world isnât like it was when you had your whole life ahead of you and felt nothing but optimism at that time.
Great interviewer. He has a strategy and stays perfectly on point.
Man big huggsss... Atleast someone agrees that working all day sucks đ
AT LEAST HE IS BEING HONEST ABOUT THE SHAPE HE IS IN!! HE IS VERY HANDSOME, AND IT'S NOT LATE TO GET BACK IN SHAPE!! WHILE THERE IS LIFE, THERE IS HOPE!!
Sometimes sadness strikes even if you know what you should do, it stops you. Small steps could help, focus on taking care of yourself, cause no one will help you but yourself.
Straight as an arrow! True as steelâŠ..
As someone whoâs 27 this was what I needed to hear I often hang out with a little older people and they have more money and my job pays like OK but I can afford my own place in the city im always learning new stuff I speak 3 languages I have a great family back home and good group of friends in various places thanks buddy for picking me up a little
I believe he has the will power to get back in tremendous shape! đđŸ
This guy's a real sweetheart you can tell. It's not too late to start walking boss!đ
The answers of someone financially blessed to not have to struggle with just trying to survive because of money.
Youâre still young and handsome sir, start getting back in shape one day at a time. You got this đȘđ
This is such a good channel. I love seeing people, hearing their advice, and what's important to them.
He's such a nice guy , I like him â€
I LOOOOOOOVE THIS MAN SAYING ENJOY LIFE AND FUCK WORKING HARD... LIFE IS SHORT... GO AND GROW ON LIFE...
He sounds like he's living pretty good life. That's nice
I worked my entire twenties. I didnât date, I didnât go to parties, I didnât do anything except for work
What work did you do? Were you an employee or an entrepreneur? And hows youre situation now, did it benefit you?
â@@imbalance9186 He was a sex worker
@@imbalance9186 I had multiple jobs. Between several retail jobs and then worked in security. That was very long shifts 6 days a week. Now, I did make a save a bunch of money and I used that money in my late twenties to go into a good career. Where I am now. But my twenties werenât great at all
ââ@@Andrew54123 I think one day you will understand that working hard in your twenties wasn't that bad. At one point in our lives, we all have to work hard so that when we get older, we won't suffer the consequences of having so much "fun." I don't know how old you are but at whatever age you are now, enjoy your life. Do the things you didn't get to do in your 20s. đ€
WOW !!!!! Really NOW U NEED TO LEAN BACK AND ENJOY L I F E !!!!
Physically I miss being in my 20s, fewer aches and pains etc but mentally Iâm better now than I ever was and in every respect - I wouldnât change that for anything.
Good advice right here. I'm only 32 but just over the last few years I stopped stressing out about my career and trying to make more and more all the time. Constantly feeling like I'm not doing enough and falling behind people my age.. stop worrying about keeping up with people and enjoy your life, realize you probably have it way better than alot of people. Take yourself out to do something fun or have a nice meal and a drink, sit there and know how good you have it. Nothing wrong with being a go getter, but if it's weighing on you constantly and taking away from your life then you need to take a step back and see the bigger picture. Good luck out there and God bless. Be happy.
He may a little bit extra Chunky but he definitely is in great spirits and that's a good thing.
I think he's ok but he's honest an how he feels.
I feel sad that he seems consumed by his appearance... It seems like there is so much more to him than that đ I hope he finds peace with his body and realises his value lies elsewhere đ
I think he may have more physical health issues than appearance.
He clearly misses being able to run for more than 5 seconds without being out of breath. Itâs more about how he feels rather than his appearance.
I'm sure he's really self-conscious if he used to be in shape and has gained so much weight. We all want to look and feel our best. But he can lose it again, and it won't take him 20 years to do it even though it took him 20 years to gain it
Not about his appearance. It is about his health and how he feels. Funny how so many women are conditioned to view obesity as something primarily aesthetic and good "to find peace with." What utter nonsense.
That's actually refreshing to hear because I feel like most people say that people in their 20s need to hustle and grind for thire future and while i dont think thats completely wrong i think that we should enjoy our 20s too. And slow down and appreciate the little things. I'm working 2 jobs and all I do is work, eat and sleep and repeat. It would be nice to do more with my life than just those 3 things.
I like this channel. And I like his questions. đđœThey are not offensive or prying or meant invoke negative emotions in the person answering the questions. And it's soothing for us to watch.
I have spent my 20's working my ass off and even in my thirty it's the same thing, waiting for the change đ
This guy also has a very healthy sense of humour..he gets it!
Can anyone find out where he is and offer to help him with beginning training? Common internautsđ
I was waiting for this answer, finally this guy lives on my expectations. Thanks bro!
Never too late to start. I'm 42 and restarted my fitness journey. It's a huge commitment but it's so satisfying seeing my body change đ when I get frustrated with the slow progress I just remind myself it took a while to put on the weight. I just keep pushing through it satisfying â€đ. You can still do it!!!! Just start !! Good luck â€đđ
Im 34, got to my best shape yet because i dedicated 4 months of my life to cut 15 kgs of my weight. One of the best decisions in my life
As a 43 year old myself, my man is speaking facts.
Man so honest it hurts!
I've been working since my teens, in my 30s now and still working hard. Sometimes it's just the cards your dealt, opportunities come differently for everyone, even opportunities for fun times.
I used to work 40-50 hours a week and couldn't stop gaining weight. Idc if I'm broke I'm working as little as possible and working out everyday
Itâs never too late to get back in shape itâs easier said than done but if some women can push out babies and get back to shape a guy can get into shape much faster but I guess depending on everyoneâs individual health and medications they currently take might have an effect on oneâs body. But whoever this man is I believe you can be healthy and loose the unwanted weight you can do this đ
This guy spitting fire like Nostradmus. As someone in their 40s he's spot on
Absolutely agree with this man đŻ. We only live once and should experience everything we want and ofc work for it. In my country people tend to say âIf you work youâll bite itâ meaning hard work allows you to get what you want, analogically you work, earn money and buy food, clothes, house etc.
Dude, you're invited to the next BBQ.
Turned 29 yesterday and realized I spent every birthday of my 20s working. Wtf man đ€Ł
In your life you may not always be working.
I hope your not wasting what you earn, like you expect it will always be there.
100% agree. It's never too late to start prioritizing loved ones and mostly yourself and your health
I got in the best shape of my life when I was 59. Stay hopeful and keep a young mind.
I'm 31 and I am out of shape. Probably as overweight as the guy in the video, but I pack the pounds on in different places so people don't believe me when I say exactly how overweight I am.
My issue is that I am tired, like way too tired. I have sleep apnea and it's being treated. My circulation sucks. Cramps happen too often. My feet keep sustaining Injuries because I walk, a lot, for my job.
Getting older it feels more important than ever to take care of my physical health, but it keeps getting shelved as I take on more responsibility at work and in life generally. Will the increased work load ever balance out? Will the pressures of age help me lose weight?
Idk. Probably not. Change is hard. Way harder than people want to think. Something like 2% of people that try to lose weight keep it off long term. I lost a hundred pounds once. I'm back where I started. I could do it again, but why didn't it stick the first time? I spent over a year doing the right things and what happened? I had to work more and more and more and it became harder to maintain good habits.
Inflation is literal, y'all. I'm literally inflating due to inflation.
INTERMITTENT FASTING / time restricted eating (start by skipping breakfast or dinner, easy 2 meals w/in 8 hour window ie btw 10am & 6pm) is an AWESOME hack -- helps with health and weight loss and money/ time saving! Almost effortless & with minimal/ no hunger!
fewer meals/ less sugar & less simple carbs = fewer insulin spikes & fewer excess stored as fat
more hours fasting =
* your body switches energy source from just carbs to using/ "burning" your own excess already stored fat for fuel!
* little or no hunger once your body adjusts (can take a few weeks)
* AUTOPHAGY kicks in after approximately 18 to 20 hours+ of fasting. AUTOPHAGY= your body "eats"/ eliminates bad cells n toxins!!!
* EXERCISE (Walking OK if out of shape &/or light body weight calisthenics) before you break your fasting window
* Coffee/ Tea, plain no sugar is OK, during fasting window...
Hint: Adding a bit of real heavy cream (or MCT oil or butter) won't break fast/ spike insulin (not all experts agree, but some do & it works for me YMMV)
Gradually reduce the "feeding window" to 4 hours... or even 1 to 2 hour OMAD (one meal a day)
Extra hacks:
Eliminate or cut down ADDED SUGAR/ DESSERTS & most simple carbs.
No or few processed foods/ empty carbs, No snacks (or fewer/ healthy ones)
Add more salads (easy on dressing)
Add more healthy fats (ie avocado, guacamole, organic free range eggs & meat, olive oil, olives, real butter, ghee, real heavy cream in coffee.. if allergic to dairy or if vegetarian/ vegan adjust accordingly & supplement vitamin B12)
Just my two cents...
It sounds too good to be true & is definitely counter intuitive...
But, it's the single best thing I've encountered & it's worked amazingly well for me!

Hang in there!!! You can do anything you put your mind to~~ prayer!!
Weâre all works in progress. Iâm 48 and at the beginning of a physical fitness journey. I believe in you! Weâve got this!
Really take time to look at why gained it back...if work is it time at work? Commuting? The food at job? Stress of job? Used to cook and no more? Mental traps? Take care of yourself. You are important and worth it!
Look man I'm 25 but hear me out. You just need to step back and take a deep breath and optimize. It sounds like you don't have the time to hit the gym everyday, that's fine. The gym lies WITHIN. Change is not hard, it's just that people in our society think you have to change everything all at once, which is not how nature works. If you walk a lot, maybe invest in some high quality barefoot shoes, and start paying attention to your walk. Feel your tendons and muscles and how they work. Practice walking with perfect form everyday. Engage the arms, the leg muscles, the abs, the back. Walk sideways, walk backwards, grow your muscles and coordination. Film yourself so that you can be your own coach. And have fun with it, that's the golden rule. Because when your having fun, the fat just melts off, and you spent so much time training and learning your body that it means less time eating. Plus once you start seeing muscles, your going to want to eat healthier because you'll want to see how far you can take this new version of you. But take it slow, put in just the right amount of intensity each day, not too much, not too little đ«Ą
Money is very important. He mistook if for materialistic obsession which is true its not good. But you need money and the best ages to chase is is early 20s so you can live a confortable life with your loved ones in your 30s and 40s
Yes. its not the chasing money thats the problem, its the spending.
Love your interviews!!! Your skills and mindset are exceptional imo!
It's always crazy when a random recommended video reaches you at the right time, I needed to hear this, in my mid twenties and can relate.
I like this vids. Right enjoy life....
