11:29 lmao i was eating oats and water only for like a year without any sweeteners and this was like 4\5 years ago when i had no idea how to eat properly!
I subbed your channel today and binged all the 'workout mistakes' videos from your early days. I am a fan ! Keep motivating others, i am a heroin addict trying to start working out and get in shape. People like you are such motivation. Thank you for making these videos. Love from Pakistan !
These type of videos is why I gravitated to your channel way back in the 200k(sub) days. The way you lay it down and explain the food side of things is why your top notch imo. Aside from the flawless technique tips of course. Btw, just bought the new program! Loving it! Appreciate all the content Mike.
Thank you Mr. Thurston. Looks like you are settling in nicely. I suggest that you come live in Miami for a couple months, we have same day (free) delivery on everything! Not to mention it is global, warm and a great place for your platform.
I'd be interested to see a detailed video on the relocation cost like visas etc and cost of living like groceries, eating out, gym, apartment, nightlife etc
Mike your the first person i can just sit, watch and be genuinely interested in what you’re doing and the advice you give. Living the dream mate good on ya. Greetings from Newcastle, which is bastard freezing 😉
Tap water is fine, as in it won't make you ill but the treatment leaves it mineral heavy and there can be complications with kidney stones and the like. But it's fundamentally clean and safe to use.
Hope your enjoying yourself out there bud, different experience for you. The weather is pants back here!! Give it time to settle down the gyms look awesome great to see you training with Andrew etc I can only imagine you will if not already make a ton of friends because of of your great friendly demeanor 💪💪
Have you actually considered that the change in body fat and the response to foods/weight training might be some weird side effect from taking finasteride? I am just curious, hair wise I am in kind of a similiar position but I am hesitant to hop on dat dere propecia game as I am very concious about my body/overall looks.
Hi Mike! New to your channel so you may have explained this before in a previous vid, but why avoid actual milk in favour of nut milks? From everything I've read actual milk is one of the most anabolic foods and was a staple of old bodybuilder diets (not to mention its full of vitamins and minerals too). Is there a reason why milk should be avoided on a diet where you want to gain muscle and ultimately lose fat?
Kristofer Chapoteau i second that. Im gonna finish medical dietetics in 4 years and i need to go to JBR everyday after work. How does salary work, aed, rent, etc? Would very much appreciate some info :)
Well, I went on a family vacation in 2018 during Christmas time ( big mistake) ha. For an expat, I think it really depends on the kind of job he or she is doing. It is definitely expensive eating outside as Mike mentions, Taxi rides are also very expensive. Preparing your own food and taking public transport is musch less easier on the pocket. I beleive it makes a lot of sense stay in an apartment -- Not necessarily a high rent apartment, if you're on vacation or if you are settling down. JBR is situated quite close to Dubai Marina -- which is an amazing Vicinity, lots of things to do, it's Bustling all the time especially in the Evenings; I really enjoyed my time in Dubai Marina. If you can afford it, there's not a place like Dubai.
this is a good video to help cope when on business travel too! Calories can get out of hand super fast if you’re not smart about it. I always travel w protein powder (usually skipping breakfast at the hotel) & then mind my carbs mainly since eating out generally when on travel.
Since 2012 I was watching your video when I was living in dubai and when I leaved dubai from 2015 you always in dubai and where ? Is closed to JLT where was my home 52 floors ! I respect this guy ! Moroccan from USA
My Dubai diet; Wagamama, Hardee’s, KFC, etc. etc.. followed by a healthy ‘brunch’ on a Friday... thanks for the heads up on where to source healthy food Mike.. trip to Carrefour on the cards! :)
Great vid mike. I’d highly recommend taking vitamin K2 mk7 if you are supplementing with such high a high dose of D3. Otherwise you run the risk of calcium build up in the arteries 👍🏼
So much great free content! Btw guys the plans are definitely worth it! I’ve wasted tons of money trying to find the right plans. Not sure how he gets it right but it’s to a tee for all your goals👌🏽
Awesome Video Mike, very informative and helpful content!!! Serious question regarding gut health and digestion. How many times do you go to the bathroom per day with all that massive amount of food, especially protein? Thank you very much and keep going!!
Dont drink the tap water mate!! You can get the water dispensers in your home (like they have in offices) and they replace the empty bottles for new ones - you just leave them outside of your apartment door. And it is pronounced Carry-four.
You can do an online food shop through Kibsons and they will deliver it to your house. There is also Hello Chef which provide you with recipes and all the ingredients (literally the exact same as Hello Fresh in the UK).
Dear Mike, Hope you are well and safe. Just curious when you say " I have gained a little bit of fat "... Just wondering if you call what you have fat, what should we call what we have ? .. Regards . Ray
Mike Thurston there are a few where I can clearly see you talking, but can’t hear anything, I loved the first workout tho, and I don’t really care about the audio, just thought it was an error
0:48 even keeps his form while pushing the trolley
Just looks so tense
😂😂
😂🤣
@@philn89 relax lol
Hahah this is so awkward
Would love a video on the lifestyle and how you have settled over there what you do in a general day!
AS B day in the life vid coming soon
Mikey how're the birds in Dubai? You slaying over there?
@@MikeThurston o yes Mike!! Can't wait 👍👍👍👍
@@capoditutticapos19 of course he is!!! That's like asking Mike is he lifting weights over there 🤣
@@MikeThurston hectic
"I just got a few essentials. Some asparagus, frozen berries, beetroot and a BIG BAG OF TAMPONS"
Tampons...Woah Mike
I never knew..damn
Lol
It's mint to see how Mike's showing more and more of his personality in his videos now. We love it man. You're a joker.
He literally always has lol
@@donjosue1000 watch his older videos the energy he has now is so much better
Salmon intake on the 👆🏽 probably not the best time to discuss but you should do a dubai food vlog...
Lol he literally has zero personality
@@mikebryson9350 your low iq is showing w that statement
16:11 Appreciate that Mike dressed in some office attire for his time explaining a spreadsheet.
Marc Knotts he is going on a date with female right after
You seem alot more uplifted, energised in Dubai. Great to see you enjoying yourself and life. All the best to you ☀️🌴🇦🇪
It’s probably the weather. I always feel better when it’s sunny outside
I enjoy Mike talk, so many hints of humor! Born to be infront of the camera
11:29 lmao i was eating oats and water only for like a year without any sweeteners and this was like 4\5 years ago when i had no idea how to eat properly!
Mike "when it comes to" Thurston
Reminds me of Lee "like I said" Priest

Ruben Gonzalez he’s excellent 👌
You forgot to show the juice
I can’t imagine picking up and moving half way around the world. Very blessed with life Mike. Congrats, your hard work is inspiring.
Hey man I haven't seen you this chipper in a while! Nice to see you are enjoying yourself out there.
Thank you Mr. Thurston. Looks like you are settling in nicely. I suggest that you come live in Miami for a couple months, we have same day (free) delivery on everything! Not to mention it is global, warm and a great place for your platform.
Your channel has really exploded recently almost 1M subs! Congrats with your success!
I'd be interested to see a detailed video on the relocation cost like visas etc and cost of living like groceries, eating out, gym, apartment, nightlife etc
How is the cost of rent in Dubai vs UK?
I think he said in a comment on one of recent videos that it's actually quite similar to London
Mike your the first person i can just sit, watch and be genuinely interested in what you’re doing and the advice you give. Living the dream mate good on ya. Greetings from Newcastle, which is bastard freezing 😉
Congrats on hitting 900k. Keep up the great content, love watching your videos man 💪
Przyprawa Winiary is a Polish product but i think you can find it also in Dubai. There are shops in Dubai where you can find polish products.

Mike your vids and tips do lighten up my night dutys and inspire me to keep training and eating well. Im going to look into your training plans.
Just wanna say that I really love your content and videos, always waiting for the next one.
Keep on man!!
you have an engaging personableness in your videos which allows for your videos not needing to be to much of a cut-up mash. Nice one.
the videos just keep getting better and better, keep it up m8
Mike It’s unbelievable The change of lifestyle and country You Did in The year of 2020 My Best Wishes For you man Huge Fan Of yours.
You're so entertaining, I love it. I hope Dubai treats you well!
Big fan from Kenya, congrats on 900k subs....
Mike, I'm sure Matt and little Luca will miss those challenges; but keep up the good work and thanks for inspiring.
Really enjoyable to see Mike out and about!
yea Tap water is not recommended in DXB, its desalinated water and not natural.
Mike, its pronounced "Car-Four", the French Tesco. That is my local branch when in Dubai!
Hey you can buy what you need at www.us-domesticsupply.ws
breakfast of champions and Trenbolona sandwiches included
Great vids mike all the best on your new journey 👍🏻
"first we start by cutting the eg. *HA*"
I love it 😂😂😂
Mike is honestly the cleanest eating bodybuilder I've ever seen! Hahaha
Mate, you seen Wesley Vissers? Even off season the guy eats clean.
Simeon Panda
Loved the vlog as always & very informative xx
finally, I was starting to miss your vlog my He-Man ❤️ thanks for getting back and show your 'cooking vlog' update ;)
great to see you choose the danish eggs, proud dane here! hope u enjoyed them. We love to make quality food products!

Also curious about your melanotan regimen ;)
Love these types of videos. Same as always with your videos NO NONSENSE. 💙
We do have supermarkets where we get food stuffs lot more cheaper,like Madina Supermarkets,Nesto hypermarkets🙂
Deira waterfront market has really cheap fresh caught fish and fresh vegetables and fruit. A full filleted salmon is 80aed.
Looking forward to hearing how you cope with the summer - lived there for 15 years, never did get used to it.
Mike tell please the songs name in the backround starting 7:37. Cant hear the lyrics normally
"A full day of beating in Dubai"
dope video with classic mike humor need more of these types of videos for sure
Do you think the pump being decreased & what not could be due to the finasteride? You should do another video on that. Thinking about hopping on it

How does rent work in Dubai man? Easy for expats? Would love if you can cover this!! Many thanks bro cheers from Miami 👊🏻

2:00 - Thought I was watching Veggietales for a second. The market looked very “Americanized.”
After coming from 3 month shoulder injury . Should I start benching and start low and slowly add weight each week ?

Is it bad if you take fish oil as per the recommended daily dose while concurrently eating salmon, white fish and whatnot?
Have to meet you soon man, I think I’ll probably see you around project açaí or the poke shop lol
the poke shop sounds like its something else altogether..
@@omp365 😂
Not bad for a winter day. Lucky bastard. Hope the move goes well for you.
Great vid mike. I’d highly recommend taking vitamin K2 mk7 if you are supplementing with such high a high dose of D3. Otherwise you run the risk of calcium build up in the arteries 👍🏼
Hey , how would you train if your ar e going to school from 8am-14:30pm and then going to work from 15:00pm -23:00pm , im diing calisthenics
So much great free content!

You are so inspiring , Mike ! Thank you.
4:12 I love this one
Did you ever take Q10? Or maka powder? I also live in Dubai, been feeling pretty tired due to work, any advice for supplements that give more energy?
it really does matter with the oat brands Mike, 11:15 honestly, some oats are better than others.
Living it up 🙌🏼 I need to get out there
How do you find out how many calories you need to consume? Also how do you know how much protein / cards you need daily ?
Dear Mike, Hope you are well and safe. Just curious when you say " I have gained a little bit of fat "... Just wondering if you call what you have fat, what should we call what we have ? .. Regards . Ray
Dubai looks like a beautiful place. I want to travel there someday.
It'd be pretty interesting if you chose to go with a meal prep company and which ones you would go with
I live in Dubai too, and not really a fan of the oats here. Can you tell me which one do you get ?
Mike thanks for the helpful info on food. Do you have a training field of 3 meals?
Do they import the eggs from Denmark? "fresh" salmon from north Atlantic i guess
You said your taking 3 fish oil pills a day? How many ius is that? I take 1 fish oil pill a day should I be taking more?
Where your subscribers can meet you in dubai?
Are you planning to organise a meeting with them?
I was in JBR last weekend
7:40 what’s the song called playing in the background?
Darude sandstorm
SxntcheZ that ain’t the one chief 😂
Can anyone tell the name of the song at 7:38?
Deividas Latinskis I’ve been trying to find out too 🤷🏽♂️😂
You're one of the best video editors in the youtube fitness
Go Waitrose there’s quite a few around business bay not too sure about in JBR but they stock most stuff you’d get in England
Mike listening to Yung Gravy at 7:41 got me bopping as well
Ethan Piper what track is it?
Dude I purchased your program yesterday and I started today, with the AFLETE app, but there’s no audio in any of your videos
Antonio Quiacaín a few of them don’t have audio, most do
Mike Thurston there are a few where I can clearly see you talking, but can’t hear anything, I loved the first workout tho, and I don’t really care about the audio, just thought it was an error
Great content again. From wich brand is your jeans shirt?
Song at 7:40?!
I love your videos
So inspiring, Keep it Up bro 💪
Love the videos!... how about going to Phuket next?
where do i get this meal planner?
Mike seems like such a good guy for being friends with!
Mike: for the genetic test is saliva good enough or does it have to be blood?
Hi Mike!
Im from Dubai,
I would suggest finding Waitrose if you miss home :')
But please dont drink tap water there! Always buy water :)
What’s the black T-shirt brand? Looks comfortable
Hey Mike, you are right, you can't drink tap water here! Everyone gets water gallon things
The grocery shopping part killed me 😂😂😂
protect your face skin with aloe vera cream before you head out. dubais weather is killing people haha. you doing great mike! love your videos🔥
