I left Uni at 160 pounds fit as a fiddle, after a few years of work I ballooned to about 230 pounds. At Uni, I walked, cycled everywhere, couldn't afford fast food, had two part time jobs that were mostly on my feet as well as belonging to a cross country running team for the Uni team, then after graduation to a 9-to-5 job, where I drove into the office car park, sat all day, got drive through meals and when I got home, sat on a couch watching TV until bed, so looking back it was no surprise the weight piled on. That was hard to reverse the damage but I managed to get back down to 175 pounds, I took up hiking as well as a diet & daily exercise regime. I think James Bond was a massive influence on that journey.
David I hear you say you don't take supplements. Did you know 50% Americans are deficient in magnesium, and a leading symptom of magnesium deficiency is anxiety/depression? As a nutritionist and someone on their own Operation Pinnacle, I would highly suggest you (and your wife) get a routine blood test to see how your nutrient levels look. I'm booking my mother in for one next month as I would rank in No.1 on list of importance moving forward on a quest for excellence. I hope you and others read this and it makes a difference. Something everyone should do at least every five years.
This was a great video, thank you David. I can only aspire to look like you do at 55! I love your goal setting beyond just the physical and finding balance with everything else. Definitely some pearls of wisdom along the way too. I'm motivated!
Happy birthday David! Love this video, I found it very motivational. It's good every so often to take the time to reflect in life on where you are and where you want to be.
Iam 37 rite now, but lots of people always tell me that the real life for a man starts at 50, if ill b able to look like you when i'll reach that age i'am pretty sure that that advice was a real thing, keep the great work David 🍗🍗🍗🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪
Bond aspirational living is a great scaffolding to build oneself. Far from a frivolous endeavour, Bond provides a creative male with the benchmark to visualise ultimate masculine success.
Happy birthday for yesterday. Just a short message, I've been watching your channel for some years, very good by the way, but not made my opinions or myself known to you. My reason for commenting today is because this video was particularly inspiring. Tomorrow this Englishman, even though is senior to you by nearly 10 years, is going back to the gym to get "fit for my age". Last thing, at some point in the future I would like to put my opinion on No Time to Die as to why I'm slightly in the camp of your friend Joe when it comes to your slight negativity on this particular film. If you're interested in my theory please let me know. Happy birthday again.
I loved this video! It resonated pretty hard when you were talking about growing up with your grandmother as your neighbor and your Star Wars figures to keep you company. I grew up on a farm and it was exactly like that! My best friend was my dog! Also, at 4:55 - look what a Hollywood couple you both look like!
Great Video!! I am only three years behind you myself. And I really need to start a workout routine again. I loved the dancing around, because I will do that from time to time as a feel good thing. It kind of reminds me of Jack Lemmon. In almost all his movies he would do some kind of self dancing thing, goofing around, but just a feel good thing to do. It does make you feel good to just be a little quirky and not care. At our age I don't think it can be said enough!!! STRETCHING!! Stretch and stretch some more. I started throwing my back out a few years ago, and the stretching makes all the difference in the world.
Happy birthday! You don’t look near it. I’m 53 and my closest to Bond (apart from talking on phone to Sir Roger Moore in 1989) was when I lived on Lake Como in my little house in 2006 driving along the lake in my Almera(!) listening to ‘You Know My Name’ on my MP3 player 😆
My New Year's Resolutions, to be achieved by December 31, 2023, are: 1) To develop the skill to paint realistic paintings well enough to be able to sell them; 2) To have the fluency in French of a French citizen with a high school education, i.e., know 5,000 words; and 3) To start shooting pool again by buying a much needed new stick, taking lessons again and getting in regular practice time doing ball drills.
1:51 :my 'This is me?!' moment on Saturday- getting my passport photos from a photo booth. I actually thought some OAP didn't collect his snaps. But I then shaved and added some Grecian 2000 for the reshoot. Not so much , 'Pinnacle ' ( new Bond title ?) but ,'constant calibration ' for me ( e.g. intermittent fasting). Hope the meal went well, Sir.Cheers.
Happy birthday David, nice video, today 1st Feb is my birthday, my wife bought me the N. Peal 007 Henley, which I think has some nicer detail than the movie Rag & Bone version. 👍 Keep up the good work.
What a fantastic video David. It perfectly captures various aspects of my life and the thoughts (and fears) that it appears, we all have. I thought it was only me that had a Bond dance/walk too…. 😁 👍
Happy Birthday to you David, 👍....I'll be 54 in July. /007 for life ‼️Long time Sub here of the channel and I will always be tuned in from Columbus GA.
Congratulations, that is an extensive program. The best thing for diet is eliminate vegetable oil. You can find plenty on this subject in RUclips. I suggest Tucker Goodrich.
I think ppl put too much of an emphasis on supplements without mastering the basics first. Nutrition eating the correct foods (basically just eat real food from the land not processed junk) in the correct amounts and staying hydrated, consistency with a balanced training plan and getting walks in, sleep and recovery. Until ppl are doing those things consistently I wouldn’t even look into supplements. With maybe the exception of D3 depending on where you live and how much sun you get. Magnesium is also good for sleep and recovery.
Hello again David. Have you ever thought about having people who watch your videos submit pictures to share in our best “Bond like” outfits doing Bond like activities ? I would love to see how others are emulating the Bond Lifestyle ! Keep up the great work !
David, exactly! Bond allows more mature guys to be their best and most vigorous in dress, lifestyle and in every way!! Wanted to try Protein shakes, have you tried those?
Happy Birthday, David! I’m a few years older than you (ok, a dozen) and still work hard at fitness. I’m not as successful anymore, but any success is worth the effort! Cheers JR Seeger Old warrior/new novelist
Like your inspiration was and will always be Bond I've gotta say and i think i can speak in behalf of many people that follow you that you are an inspiration for us. Seeing a man in his 50s having so much care with how he looks and ages after all inspires me(a teen) to also try to be the best version of myself and take the best care of myself.( Clothing, style , physical form and just the way i carry myself) Thank you David!
Happy Birthday my fellow Aquarius. Love the channel. We have very similar interests pertaining to Bond- style, Luxury and just having your own way of doing EVERYTHING. 🥂
I love this ! Maxing out life in all areas that matter -especially through the guiding lens of Bond -is the whole reason we are here ! We are out here to grow and expand -it makes one feel better to do so ! Cheers to your new year of life -excited to see your continued growth into the future !
Thank you David! I'm 52 and in recent months I have noticed quickness in muscle loss and I also have high blood pressure. I know there are a number of things to do, but I get despondent because of the age I am and I not in shape as I used to be many years ago. You have inspired that it is possible to feel, look and be better, and more energised. Many thanks!
Those Perfect Pushups look amazing! I've got a janky right wrist so I tend to do pushups on my knuckles since I can't lay that palm flat. The Perfect Pushup thing looks like it would be perfect to overcome that!
Happy birthday David. thanks for the channel its fun! right now my lady has me in shape enough to hike ~10 miles, ideally every day. i do like to bring the champagne and proper glasses, cause James Bond... previously its when i worked at two yoga studios at the same time.
Thanks for all the great tips...the box-in-box pics helped a great deal to catalogue certain items. At 46, I'm in pretty good shape but my wife/doctor is on me to make some internal changes (not that I look like D.C. by any means :). Well done!
I'm 32 and not in my best shape. I'm active and mostly healthy, but not where I want to be. Last few months I had a bad arm injury and then the stress of working four different jobs and not sleeping definitely did not help. I'm hoping to use 2023 to hit some strength PRs, maybe run a 10k, get to the appearance where my body image issues stop somewhat and increase flexibility. And improve my mental health for better sleep. That might be the toughest part.
As always - great content and very relatable. Up until the pandemic hit, I was a gym rat - always had been. Eating chicken and brown rice nonstop, in the gym 5-6 days a week etc. In great shape, but not a lot of “life balance”. Two years out and I’m still trying to figure out that balance again. Still work out, but not nearly as intense. Down probably 25 lbs of muscle - but kind of ok with it. (Also not eating 4 lunches a day!) We’ve built a home gym, but there’s less equipment than I used to have access to. So what’s my point? I’m climbing a new mountain - and that’s ok! You don’t have to stay on the same mountain forever - in fact it’s probably good to change the view!
I'm 42 as of Feb 9th working on a key look should be every man's goal, Ladies take care of themselves, so Being like Bond is being aware that there's always room for improvement.
70 year old woman here & my fitness became a real priority for me after 2 children and in my 40's. Still a great priority ... you look great @ 55 David and will be for as long as you have the joy in it !
I’m 65 in March and like you I’ve been climbing all the time. I’ve just retired and hove the physical aesthetic you showed us of you 2 years ago. I used Daniel Craig as my goal and I appreciate this video.
I can't even begin to tell you how refreshing it is to see someone with a personal gym that doesn't include a bench, barbells or machines. I'm a lean guy and with my genetics it's nearly impossible for me to put on a lot of weight. Friends say that I'm blessed, but when I was young I wanted the big shoulders and big chest almost like Schwarzenegger. All the guys I know who used bench presses and machines to become like that are now out of shape with man boobs. You put too much weight on eventually as you get older everything will eventually stretch or sag. None of us can beat the clock. I'll be 50 next year and I'm happy to be lean and what's kept me physically fit for so long are pushing and pulling exercises mostly involving my own body weight. I still use a chin up bar that my dad bought me 40 years ago. I still have the old Dan Lurie plated dumbbells he left me. I follow a similar diet thanks to my parents who started me out very young and also never drank around me which is perhaps why I've stayed away from alcohol having only 3 to 4 drinks a year. Great video man, thanks for being so open and candid. Keep up the good work. Not sure Bond would approve of you cutting down your drinking though. P S. There's a great interview out there with 70-year-old actor Stephen Lang who revealed that after bulking up for the first AVATAR, his body was surprisingly brittle. He's slimmer now but claims he's more fit than before thanks to Bikram Yoga. Something to consider trying as we all get older. I know I am.
I'm Bond at 25 years old, I love flirting with women and working out to be fit like Craig's Bond. I always employ pick-up lines from James Bond, it feels great to be a single yohng guy obsessed with the 007 life.
Trust me David, you don’t need professional trainers or to obsess too much over diet. I am 66 years old and have trained as far back as I can remember - not long sessions - but enough to keep me fairly ripped and still building muscle even my age. So, fear not, at 55 I still considered myself a relatively young man and at 66 I can still bang out 80 slow and deep press-ups and 95 slow and deep press-up using raised bars all within an hour after doing strength exercises in the morning. If I have any advice to give, it is to be consistent in training regularly. Once you have reached a good level it is much easier to keep fit than it is to get fit from scratch.
You look great David! Don’t apologize for flexing up and being proud of what you’ve achieved physically. You have planted these ideas - this motivation in so many of us to push ourselves towards our best selves for where we are in life. Thank you and continued good health in all aspects of life and wellbeing!
Happy birthday David. I too am on a mission to get fit for 50, it’s not going well 😢. But your video has me back on track 👍 Thanks and keep up the good work!
Congratulations on reaching the speed limit, David! 😂 I hope everything goes your way, today! And, I hope the coming year brings you much to be thankful for, including health, happiness and many successes! 🎂🍾🥂
I’m 56 and when I’m out on a ride ( I cycle almost every day) in the rain or sunshine I think of all those guys my age stretched out on their sofas eating pizza vegetating on game shows or ice road truckers! And give myself a little smile! Fitness keeps your mind happy as well as your body. I’m always happy to take my shirt off on a beach knowing that I ‘don’t’ look like Daniel Craig, but I’m as fit as I can be! And happy. Love your honesty.
Happy Birthday David! As a fellow 1968 baby, I really appreciate your inspiring journey video sharing your experiences, tips, and above all passion for life as well as Bond. Wishing you many more years of health and happiness!
Sounds "Operation Pinnacle" was a complete success! Congratulations David, that was some wonderfully solid observations and insights. It's not the destination it's the journey and it matters how you feel, not how you look that is true measure of fitness. Much happiness and success on your continued journey and happy birthday!
I left Uni at 160 pounds fit as a fiddle, after a few years of work I ballooned to about 230 pounds. At Uni, I walked, cycled everywhere, couldn't afford fast food, had two part time jobs that were mostly on my feet as well as belonging to a cross country running team for the Uni team, then after graduation to a 9-to-5 job, where I drove into the office car park, sat all day, got drive through meals and when I got home, sat on a couch watching TV until bed, so looking back it was no surprise the weight piled on.

Happy birthday David! Love this video, I found it very motivational. It's good every so often to take the time to reflect in life on where you are and where you want to be.
55 dang, man hasn't aged in a decade.
55? More like 45, David. You look amazing!💪 great video as always. Also Happy (late) Birthday
Iam 37 rite now, but lots of people always tell me that the real life for a man starts at 50, if ill b able to look like you when i'll reach that age i'am pretty sure that that advice was a real thing, keep the great work David 🍗🍗🍗🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪

Happy Birthday David! Thanks for the content and the awesome reviews, interviews and experiences you bring to the James Bond Community
Hi David, happy birthday- I’m 60 and still on the Bond journey (and fitter than 40!)
I think ppl put too much of an emphasis on supplements without mastering the basics first. Nutrition eating the correct foods (basically just eat real food from the land not processed junk) in the correct amounts and staying hydrated, consistency with a balanced training plan and getting walks in, sleep and recovery. Until ppl are doing those things consistently I wouldn’t even look into supplements. With maybe the exception of D3 depending on where you live and how much sun you get.

Nice one David. As a PT just be mindful about using ab roller ensure your core is engaged and tilt pelvis before using…….protect that back!! 😊👍
Hello again David. Have you ever thought about having people who watch your videos submit pictures to share in our best “Bond like” outfits doing Bond like activities ? I would love to see how others are emulating the Bond Lifestyle ! Keep up the great work !
David, exactly! Bond allows more mature guys to be their best and most vigorous in dress, lifestyle and in every way!! Wanted to try Protein shakes, have you tried those?
24:53 - 25:15 is the exact reason I enjoy this channel so much!
You're more violent then Bond......I'm 56 and I can't lift weights and beat up Odd Job
Happy Birthday David , we share the same birthday , apart from I’ve got 3 years on you
Keep up the good work , know it appreciated
Happy Birthday, David!
I’m a few years older than you (ok, a dozen) and still work hard at fitness. I’m not as successful anymore, but any success is worth the effort!

My goal is to meet IN PERSON David, Joe D and other Bond fans over the summer.
Be like Bond at 55? Easy peasy. Try Be Like Bond at 66. Whew. We'll talk, ha ha.

You look great James. I'm heading to Planet Fitness. Thanks for the inspiration.
Happy birthday David, I hope the next 55 years are just as amazing as the last.
Goes to show that the journey is never perfectly linear. Peaks and valleys all the way. But if you persist, those valleys get a little shallower.
Happy Birthday Mr. Bond from germany!
I do dips at my work gym every day....they are great for keeping the neck nice and firm.
Every second of that was just open, honest and brilliant. That's very rare . Thanks David .
Happy Birthday my fellow Aquarius. Love the channel. We have very similar interests pertaining to Bond- style, Luxury and just having your own way of doing EVERYTHING. 🥂

I honestly thought you were my age, i'm 47. So you are doing something right.
South Beach diet, basically works for me.
Good video David and well done for being in good shape, you look younger now than the before picture so it goes to show the difference it makes
Those Perfect Pushups look amazing! I've got a janky right wrist so I tend to do pushups on my knuckles since I can't lay that palm flat. The Perfect Pushup thing looks like it would be perfect to overcome that!
Keep doing the knuckle pushups too. That's martial art foundational exercise.
Me too, always do fingers or knuckles 💪

Happy Birthday, David! All the best wishes!
I wish you a very happy birthday age or gender your 55 Happy Birthday
Excellent video David. 👍🏻
Thanks for sharing your personal journey.
Happy Birthday!
I’d be happy with a body like Roger Moore, let alone Daniel Craig.
Happy birthday David, 🎉 sending well wishes from across the pond in the UK
Ricky Gervais puts out deliberately bad photos haha.
Great video ! Thanks for the inspiration and happy birthday!🍸
Hi David, Great post I was 55 too just over a month ago so welcome to the club! Thanks for the inspiring words!
Happy birthday David! Thanks for the content & looking forward to more.
I'm 42 as of Feb 9th working on a key look should be every man's goal, Ladies take care of themselves, so Being like Bond is being aware that there's always room for improvement.
Happy birthday David. 55??? no way sorry thought you was younger. Keep up the great work Sir.
Happy birthday!! Thank you for this video. And Tang! Love it. Had that a bit when I was a kid. Thanks for the info on your diet as well.
70 year old woman here & my fitness became a real priority for me after 2 children and in my 40's. Still a great priority ... you look great @ 55 David and will be for as long as you have the joy in it !
HAPPY BONDIAN BIRTHDAY, David 💐🎊🎁🎂
Snap, we share a birthday. Happy Birthday David.
Moore was older,. You are still the American Bond, Jimmy Bond!
Thank you for the ab roller tip, I am trying to strenghten my core so maybe I should try it.
I’m 65 in March and like you I’ve been climbing all the time. I’ve just retired and hove the physical aesthetic you showed us of you 2 years ago. I used Daniel Craig as my goal and I appreciate this video.
Happy birthday !!
April of ‘66 for me.
Great video David. Thanks for the inspiration and this community ! And happy birthday- today is my wife’s birthday as well !
A secret Bruce Lee fan too? My man!

Great video man, thanks for being so open and candid. Keep up the good work. Not sure Bond would approve of you cutting down your drinking though.
P S. There's a great interview out there with 70-year-old actor Stephen Lang who revealed that after bulking up for the first AVATAR, his body was surprisingly brittle. He's slimmer now but claims he's more fit than before thanks to Bikram Yoga. Something to consider trying as we all get older. I know I am.
Happy birthday you ageless Bondian, you!
Happy Belated Birthday David! Always an inspiration!
I'm Bond at 25 years old, I love flirting with women and working out to be fit like Craig's Bond. I always employ pick-up lines from James Bond, it feels great to be a single yohng guy obsessed with the 007 life.
The happiest of birthdays to you, David!
At 32 I'm already feeling less flexible. Send me your tips for longevity!
Yoga. There's basic videos on RUclips
Trust me David, you don’t need professional trainers or to obsess too much over diet. I am 66 years old and have trained as far back as I can remember - not long sessions - but enough to keep me fairly ripped and still building muscle even my age.

Happy birthday David. I too am on a mission to get fit for 50, it’s not going well 😢. But your video has me back on track 👍 Thanks and keep up the good work!
Another 55er here, I am right with you
Happy Birthday David! Here's to Operation Pinnacle and the next 55 years..!!💪We should have had at least two more Bond films by then..
Happy birthday David 🍻🥳🥳🥳
You don't look a day over 21 man ;)
Another great video. Happy Birthday David!
Congratulations on reaching the speed limit, David! 😂 I hope everything goes your way, today! And, I hope the coming year brings you much to be thankful for, including health, happiness and many successes! 🎂🍾🥂

I’m always happy to take my shirt off on a beach knowing that I ‘don’t’ look like Daniel Craig, but I’m as fit as I can be! And happy. Love your honesty.
Happy Birthday David! As a fellow 1968 baby, I really appreciate your inspiring journey video sharing your experiences, tips, and above all passion for life as well as Bond. Wishing you many more years of health and happiness!
Happy Birthday David I hope you have many more to come.
Great video. Loved this as someone getting to this age...
Looking fit so you are off to a good start, David
Happy birthday from Bulgaria, brother! ❤️🤜🤛
55? Well done, James!
Sounds "Operation Pinnacle" was a complete success! Congratulations David, that was some wonderfully solid observations and insights. It's not the destination it's the journey and it matters how you feel, not how you look that is true measure of fitness. Much happiness and success on your continued journey and happy birthday!
David, you're a kid. 😀
Happy Birthday David
