Hey, just wanted to say that this video is a really good break from the usual exercise/workout videos that you normally upload. It's quite refreshing and the information presented here is also very important for all of us. I want to say thank you for always putting out great content, and I hope to see more videos like this in the future!
0:10 | Myth #1, "You didn't work hard enough, if you don't feel sore." 0:58 | Myth #2, "More sweat equals a better workout." 1:59 | Myth #3, "You can tone your muscles." 3:16 | Myth #4, "You can target your fatburn." 4:03 | Myth #5, "You need to spend hours in the gym." 5:24 | Myth #6, "Muscle can turn into fat." 6:16 | Myth #7, "You can burn off last nights' fast food with a trip to the gym."
Totally same for me. I’ve made by far the most progress from short and frequent workouts where I’m barely sore and sweaty afterwards. And that’s in lifting and calisthenics
as someone who studies biology it is so satisfying seeing someone who doesnt talk bs or recommends bs workouts that either dont target the muscle group they say it does or just offer dangerous or not safe workouts.
You can't burn off a whole fast food meal with a workout session. But you don't have to. You just need to burn out the difference in calories between that fast food meal, and the alternative meal you would have eaten if you'd had a healthy meal. And that's possible with a nice 1h30 run. Of course in general you cannot have a bad diet and expect to loose weight. But the calories you burn exercising, if you exercise > an hour a day, are not insignificant. There's a reason that people in military training can eat 4/5 thousand calories a day and still lose weight. If you're having a chocolate 3 or 4 times a week but you're exercising say 8 hours a week then you're absolutely going to burn the excess calories through exercise. And if you're eating healthy/in moderation the rest of the time, you may lose weight.
Great video! Diet and rest are the most important things, that a lot of people neglect. I really appreciate the part in which you talk about muscle soreness, because this misconception is the cause of injuries. This way to train increase the level of stress in the body that leads to the production of too much cortisol and free radicals. In less words: bad training make us getting old faster!
Sehr aufschlussreiches Video. Ist schon erstaunlich, wie weit du es inzwischen gebracht hast...und dabei hat alles auf einem kleinen Spielplatz angefangen. ;)
Thanks to this youtube channel, I started my workout routine even though I cannot buy any of the program, since I have no facility to pay the program. But those videos absolutely life changing!! I always remember their advice : Consistency is the key Thanks to El Eggs and Sven Kohl and team
Note: I've been following these guys for 4 years now. At 61 I've always been an athlete and have transitioned form all types of maintenance exercises at the very BORING gyms for Running, MTB & Swimming. However, calisthenics; especially with RINGS, has turned maintenance exercising into another sport. And I don't have to go to the gym to do it!
8th myth: blue shorts increase your gains massively. ...Id still like some, though. Ive recently seen some with your logo on them, so they are new and available. but where? :D
First time I heard the legendary Herr Egg speaking in person then I realise it is him doing the narration on the other ones DOH. Brilliant stuff as always though
One of the biggest points in this Video is the "eating crap" which nowadays it is becoming almost unavoidable... 9/10 Super Market foods contain sugars and preservatives that are way harmful to our bodies . Please avoid crap food and start the fitness journey from your kitchens brothers and sisters
@@sproaty the ratios that they provide is more than the body needs. Lots of Europeans and Americans have huge issues with diabetes. I cut my sugar intake to half. My life has never been better!
@@sproaty unless you're a health scientist yourself, I'm not taking your word for it and I would arguably say that most patients with type 2 diabetes are having at least 2 sugary drinks per day (let's say 2 cans of cola). I never said that sugar is bad. I my self use it. I simply say that food industry uses it in a devilish way to make consumers more attracted to products so that they buy more. In the end your daily intake of sugars is more than needed. There is science behind this and I don't care what you say sir as my health results show otherwise. Kindly.
@@GeorgeMilkasIgore hi George, I didn't have much time earlier hence the short reply. The main cause of T2D is obesity. Sugar *can* factor in, sure, but very little. Being fat is the main cause. Personally I was consuming 1kg of sugar for almost a year and took a diabetes test at the end. Result? No sign of it whatsoever. People are told things like fruit, honey etc is good, but to avoid processed sugar. Your body does not know the difference, molecularly. A few fellow cyclist friends of mine avoid sugar but have no problems using energy gels which ultimately converts down to glucose. but nooo, sugar is so bad...! And, c'mon - you said "Super Market foods contain sugars and preservatives that are way harmful to our bodies". Sounds very much like "sugar is bad", no? I'm just fed up of sugar being demonised. I had friends tell me that it's a poison. A POISON FFS!! 😂
This video was really probably the most important I've ever seen in my life about gym, despite me being a boxer, so I train like hell moat of the year (thers just no way someone can train well 365 days straight), I've learned with time that Gym and boxing gym are two very different things, I still believed in some of these myths though, so thanks for debunking them once and for ever.
My PE teacher thinks we need to sweat when exercising because sweat from exercise is different. I'm like, what? Bruh, and also, the gyms here in my hometown have like no A/C; it's kind of shitty; you're already sweating a lot; it's like you're in the kitchen; and also because of the hot weather.
"Those who can DO, Those who cant TEACH" PE teachers cannot motivate you, you either do it because YOU want it, or you float through til you are old enough to not have a PE teacher, and then succeed at whatever you want and put the effort into. I was a miserable failure in PE class, picked last for every team, and then a competitive athlete my entire life after finishing high school.
Feels weird seeing Alex's voice come out of his own mouth. Helpful video, though and it does address some of my own preconceptions namely needing to be sore and sweating during or after a workout
The 7th misconception never fails to amuse me to this day. Eating at McDonalds while trying to get in shape IMO is BY FAR the biggest roadblock for most ordinary people (by “ordinary” I mean a stereotypical person that decides to improve one’s physical form). I, of course, was exactly the same and it didn’t even crossed my mind to question that: I’ve worked very hard physically so now I can have all the sugar and processed fats I want - my body will (magically, of course) turn it into muscle 😄
Well If you don't care for the looks you can have both. Muscle and fat. Think about sumo wrestlers. They are not only overweight, they also have great muscles underneath. (Not saying that is healthy!) Tbh i don't care If i have a little bit of a buffer layer^^ If i get sick my body has some reserves
@@heikesiegl2640 True, true. I am not saying that fat is bad just because one's body has it. Body needs fat and the contemporary Instagram body standards are ridiculous and most likely unhealthy. What I am saying is: the quality of food matters. Processed foods and sugars are BAD not because of fat, but because they inflict staggering damage to one's health!
The guys in the gym is say I should off the fan or the AC so they can sweat and i always tell them it’s not about the amount of sweat… I myself I sweat even inside the coolest AC
Skip in a sauna, while wearing a garbage bag, if you need to lose weight for a fight. If you are not a boxer though, its the stupidest thing ever to lose water weight. Opposite of healthy.
Agreed with almost all of this, but the calories burned in a strength workout MUST be higher than 200-300 kcal. I feel hungry enough to eat a full extra meal (of roughly 900 kCal) after a good workout session. And I don't gain any weight from it.
Great video! I don't get the last point. I don't notice any differences depending on what i eat, I eat almost only garbage (but also relatively little meals per day) and still get really good results for a simple home workout, no fat, visibly toned. Is that lucky genes or what am I missing?
Some people have a very quick metabolism, and their body burns every calorie so there's nothing left to be converted in fat, they are called ectomorphs. But this changes with age, after 30s you'll see its not the same. The down side of ectomorphs is that tipically they are also "hard gainers".
Hello I have purchased your complete calisthenics i have finished level 2 and I was at level 3 25% progress. My question is that I have stopped working out for various reasons for about 2 months now, should I go back to the start of level 3? start of level 2? or middle of level 2? I also would like to add that i've hurt my elbow and I feel pain when doing pullups and pushups, I am also emphasizing on mobility.
Guys at work talk about doing 100 push ups. I can only do about 5. I just don’t understand why. I’m fairly muscular and only a bit overweight. I just can’t do push-ups 😢
4:50 The reason why some people stay for about 2-3hrs in the gym is because they target multiple muscles for example push-day,they work on the chest,shoulders and triceps
When I did 2 1/2h a day in the gym it was after 5 years of going all the time, and I was hitting every head of every muscle as soon as they recovered. Made great gains the whole time, and I was moving monster weights with strict form and needed time for the heart to slow down between sets.
i love the video and in general your chanel because you allways keep the biological faktor in mind wich can help a lot of people like my self to better under stand what is wrong vs what is right keep up the good work btw i would love if you guys could make a workout event where people could meet you adn maby even workout with you
Regarding dieting: Does your body really use all the calories you consume? A bag potato chips may technically contain 1300 kilo-calories but that measurement was not taken by looking how much it would contribute to somebody's metabolism. I actually feel like the occasional cheatmeal (such as eating a sizable portion of potato chips) does virtually nothing, if it happens sufficiently rarely.
If you eat a lot and have a huge stomach, fat included, then no you wont get as many calories from the same food, your body gets inefficient. Not relevant though, just eat a reasonable amount, and workout hard and efficiently to gain or lose weight and look better. Cheat meal does not matter at all, dont worry about it, nobody cares.
The 2 big things here are: 1. Every pound of fat contains 3,300kcals, so you yave to eat a ton of calories to get fat. Its not any 1 meal that makes you fat, its the long term consistency of over consumption of calories that makes you fat. 2. Food calories are measured by burning the food to ash in a special device called a bomb calorimeter, this will extract more energy from food than the body is able to. However, we can all still learn how many listed calories we require to maintain our current lifestyles even if we are overcounting. Its just way easier to measure them this way than to measure the actual absorbtion and expenditures of the body. An alternative way of measuring is by macronutrient amounts: 4kcal/g of carbs 4kcal/g of protien 7kcal/g of ethanol 9kcal/g of fat PS: one standard drink of alcohol (ethanol) is worth 98kcal from just the alcohol content, and this is often dropped from the label.
I've been listening to Dr. Andy Galpin recently to get the no BS way to build strength/muscle. Also, Sven's 20% body fat look still looks better than most of us :)
Question like that. Can't really find an answer to that. I am kinda old, 42 yo and have high blood pressure and a start of diabete. I want to get back in shape but doctor say to do jogging. Trouble is i weight 270 pounds and when i run, my feet hurt and swole, turning purple and can't walk for a week and if i put to much intensity in the next 3 week, it's back to square 1 and can't walk for 1 week. So i was wondering. Is there a good exercise i can do that won't break my foot and help me lose weight? Or is there a trick to avoid breaking my foot while jogging like running in grass to soften the blow or something?
Your doctor is right about jogging, but there are many other things you can do. I suggest a mix between low impact strength/eundurance exercises + some low impact cario like swimming, cylcing, walking, crosstrainer etc. For the strength exercises take a look at this video: czcams.com/video/KeNObkhENKQ/video.html Avoid the too hard stuff in the beginng and focus on low impact jumping jacks, linclined push ups, swimmers, squats, planks, etc.
@@calimove Thanks for the reply. I have an old bike in the backyard, will have to do some major maintenance on it but will give it a try. :) Probably gonna start to push up to. :)
All the water resistance adds up, you never get hot, knees are fine, and you can walk a lot faster than little 100lb clowns can swim, thanks to the weight. Give it a shot.

More soreness less progress for me, that’s why I’m prioritizing recovery and how my body feels.
Totally same for me. I’ve made by far the most progress from short and frequent workouts where I’m barely sore and sweaty afterwards. And that’s in lifting and calisthenics
For me also!
I love the new video style of you speaking directly to the camera
Sven gaining weight during covid lockdown times is really useful for illustration purposes isn't it?
Oh yes :)
😂😂😂
He was injured as well IIRC
It's really nice to see you actually chatting to us Alex instead of hearing your voice over a video, maybe even Sven can join in too
About myth #1, although I already know about it, I feel more satisfied with the workout when I feel sore. I enjoy feeling sore.

Your doctor is right about jogging, but there are many other things you can do. I suggest a mix between low impact strength/eundurance exercises + some low impact cario like swimming, cylcing, walking, crosstrainer etc.
For the strength exercises take a look at this video: czcams.com/video/KeNObkhENKQ/video.html
Avoid the too hard stuff in the beginng and focus on low impact jumping jacks, linclined push ups, swimmers, squats, planks, etc.
