The popularity of bio hacking and extreme fitness seems to grow every year. While these things can be a great source of inspiration, they aren’t always practical for the average person, and they certainly aren’t necessary. In fact, for some, the threshold for health can look out of reach when so much of the popular conversation is exploring the very fringe of health and fitness. The good news is that it is the basics that offer the biggest return on investment, by far. Focus on good food, daily exercise, good social connections, connecting with nature, and finding purpose in your life, and that will outperform just about any expensive and complex health intervention around. This isn’t to say all the other stuff can’t help, but it definitely isn’t necessary to be healthy and fit.

The fitness industry has pretty much become a "get fit quick scheme" and always ignoring the basics. I like how you touched on having fun and making the most with friends and family as I hate this growing trend of needing to isolate yourself and going "monk mode" in order to achieve health and fitness, hits unrealistic and far from healthy.
Yep. I couldn't agree more. And yeah, social connection and meaning are huge.
Exactly, I agree 💯, I feel like most people want to take the easy road. I feel like the world we live in today has gotten way easier for us that now not many know what hard work is anymore. Working hard doesn't mean you can't enjoy the process. People often wait for motivation to do something, but the real motivation comes when you discipline yourself first. God Bless You, I pray that God gives you strength, guidance, and wisdom in this life.
It’s a psychological trick consumers play on themselves. They believe by spending money for a peloton or gym membership is “the first step”. And the more they spend the bigger the step they made thus the more committed they are to it. That expenditure becomes a symbolic starting point to them looking and feeling better.
In actuality, spending money is zero effort which is the antithesis of what it takes to get into shape.
@@JuliusCzure You would think by now , with all the videos in the world at your disposal, people would know when it comes to fitness,there is no fast and easy road.
Its too late for me bro I’ve gone too far
i've been skinny my entire life and always felt uncomfortable with the idea of going to a weightlifting gym to put on muscle due to social anxiety. Last year, I started calisthenics in my bedroom after stumbling across your channel. So far I have managed to change my max pushups in one set from 3 to 45 and my max pullups have gone from 0 to 16. I know its not much in comparison to you but I have gained a fair amount of muscle and my social anxiety has reduced drastically. I feel so much more comfortable being myself and I owe that to you.
DUDE! This is so awesome to hear! You should be very proud of what you have accomplished, man. That is no joke and that doesn't come without effort and consistency. That will translate over into everything. Well done, and if you ever need help with anything, feel free to reach out. Keep me posted on your progress, brother.
Congrats man, it takes alot of strength, physically and mentally to acknowledge where you are at in life and actually make a change, much respect. Also, remember Jesus can take away all your anxiety and all the things you are negatively dealing with fully away if you ask and believe in Him. God Bless You. And much respect.
Same here, due to social anxiety and just being lazy to go out, I just train at my room and have been gaining muscle and strength.
@@frog6054 Everyone starts from somewhere, consistency is key 💪. Never give up. God Bless You.
Those are amazing numbers brother! You’re killing it!
This is so true. I keep telling people, especially beginners, 'Consistency is more important than intensity'. If you've had a rough day and don't feel like you have the energy to go to the gym, go anyway but plan to knock your weights down by 25% or even 50%. With that mindset to get you out the door, by the time you get there and actually start working out you'll likely find your energy has returned and you don't even need to knock the weight down. But if you do need to knock them down, no big deal... you got there, and you did something!
Well said! I couldn't agree more.

Been combining your pull up mastery plan with 3 sets of 50 bodyweight squats and 10min abs exercices while maintaining a healthy 2 meals a day diet, and Man, the consistency works like charm. Brother, just know you are making a lot of people's lives better. Cheers!
That is awesome! Great application of Pull Up Mastery. Keep it up man, and keep me posted on your progress. Thank you of sharing.
How are your legs developing?
@@KbogesHi your pull up plan worked wonders for me too! I just switched to paused pull ups, and then finally hit that sweet 12 reps I was aiming year go. That number was the standard to get when I tried to get into military and failed. At least now I can do them. Thanks ❤
Sorry, am not being lazy. Would you please link the pull up mastery here? I am new here and have no idea where to fund it.
Thank you.
@@hekkrjs2698 Tbh, i never had any problem with legs. They were always strong and big, and i work them in other ways indirectly. So the 3 sets I do daily, are basic maintenance to keep them at that certain level according to my vision and objectives.
2:44 “Start small with what you can sustain, no matter how seemingly insignificant that is, and then slowly build from there, always keeping the bigger picture in mind, which is something that is meant to last, something that supports your life and adds enjoyment to it, not consume it. Do that and you’re probably going to be just fine.”
Love this ❤
"How far can you ratchet down the scale until you have no excuses?"
I like how you keep your videos short 2-3 mins and to the point.
Practicality wins out over "bio-hacking" any day.
Yep. It's not as flashy, but it's what makes the biggest difference.
Most guys can't do 50 push-ups these days. Why are we even talking about bio hacking?
@@elliottberkley biohacking is for those who want to obtain the best possible results, not the average guy
@@elliottberkley 50 push-ups *in a row* is pretty insane to set as a benchmark. I consider myself reasonably fit, having worked out almost every day for years and honestly I doubt I could manage 50 push-ups consecutively.
@@Ampe96 I see.
- Wake up, put on some shoes, go for a walk in the sun
- Eat whole foods
- Workout 3-5 times a week
- Get good sleep
These simple things, incorporated into your lifestyle long term, will put you above a majority of the population in terms of health.
As men, we often complicate our lives and make up excuses as to why we do so.
Keep it simple. Stay active, treat your body and mind. (and sub to K boges)
✌
Exactly this!
Thank you, brother 🙏
You missed the #1 that people in the West get wrong - Do not over eat.
@@trentvlak That is mostly implied within the 'eat whole foods' mark. It is extremely hard to eat in a caloric surplus when you've removed empty calories from your diet. Extremely hard.
@@derodigital It's still easy to get more calories than you need from good natural food.
Step 0.5 - live somewhere sunny
I’m so glad I follow this channel! Constantly burned out from training 4 days with like 4 heavy compound lifts per session plus sauna, cold therapy and it just felt like I was a slave ! I found it hard to reduce my stress when my body is in a constant fight or flight mode, just been enjoying the sun, eating really good and training moderately and my health and mental health is 10x better now
Exactly, dude! I know guys that have just absolutely crazy optimization routines that bring them so much stress. Sometimes it's about cutting stuff out more than it is adding stuff in. Getting back to those basics can be powerful.
@@Kboges totally bro, thank you for the videos and thank you for the reply! Take care
I spent my 20s as gym slave, I need so much time to realise something is wrong..dont be me.
“Consistent with the basics” excellently put, it’s very to over complicate things for no reason, find what works for you and keep doing it !
That's it. There are no secrets. It's just about doing the simple things over and over again.
Love that, you are so right. After hours of sitting, we hit our body with extreme fitness routines. And because they are so extreme we stop doing them. Fitness is Part of my daily routine, I bike to work, never take the elevator, I get up every half hour when sitting, go for a Chat with colleagues, make sure I get out of breath and sweat every day at least once. I havent been in a Fitness Center the last 10 years. I can get up from the ground without using my Hands in three different ways. We really should focus on our Joy when moving our bodies
FTW 😊
A perfect example of “less is more”and how it’s all truly about consistency. The less processed food you eat the healthier you’ll be. Which means, that you can spend less time in the gym and more time doing the things you enjoy.
Exactly right.
Great post. I’ve been guilty of trying to “bio-hack” and “weekend warrior” my way out of a (very) suboptimal lifestyle. It doesn’t work and can be very discouraging.
220 days into no alcohol, daily calisthenics, and light cardio, I’m down from 235 to 192.
The funny part is I’m not working nearly as hard, just being consistent and never under or over-doing it. Thanks for everything.
This is spot on. 100% of the principles in action.
Well done, brother!
@@Kboges thank you for showing me the way! 🙏 💪
This guy changed my life.. Focusing on fundamentals.. and this can work in other areas in your life too.. Thank you bro, your impact is massive..
So happy the content has been a positive influence! Thank you, dude.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your voice on the internet, brother. I wish you well, my man
That means a lot, bro. Thank you 🙏
3 minutes of a video, if you did what he's doing for 3 minutes after every meal, you'd be changed very quickly and surprised even quicker!!!
Dude that is a great point! Thank you for bringing that up!
@@Kboges hahah mate your channel is pure gold!!!! gimme a break :) Just keep it up and grow!!!!
Haha exactly
I figured it was time to extend my gratitude to you. I've been on a "strict" 6 day a week calesthenics routine since..March 3rd, based on your push/pull/legs approach. Along with keeping my calories low/protein high and attempting a recomp approach..my health, fitness/endurance/strength, mental health, self beliefs, and dare I say aesthetics have changed much more drastically than I ever thought possible in only 6 weeks so far. Your assurances that this extremely simple approach WILL work really gave me the motivation I needed to commit to this habit. I'm 32 and wasn't at a bad starting place...but I'm down to ~160lbs and I did my first set of 80 squats on Friday! (among other pr's) I can't thank you enough for what you've given me, it has really changed my life in very short order. This sort of message may seem trite or otherworldly but I mean it sincerely. Wishing you continued success, as well.
Oh man this is so good to hear! I love it, dude! Well done. It really is that simple and once you put the pieces in play, the results are inevitable. Keep it up forever and never hesitate to reach out to me if you ever need help with anything. Awesome job, brother!💪💪
Can you please make a video on how to level up your training with the routine (pull up/push up/legs) once you reach 3 sets of high reps? Is it time to add weights?@@Kboges
What workout exactly are you doing on a Daily Basis? I also want to get into Daily Training but I am not sure how to start :)
@@couchpotato4295 hey! The specifics are something I've gradually settled on and seem to work well for me, hitting a sweet spot between effort v fatigue.
Sunday: 3x max chin ups/3x max deficit push ups/3x walking lunges (~120 strides, see what works for you)
Monday: EMOM 6 pushups/3 pull ups (I go for over an hour, increase reps to decrease time), 3x squats afterwards (65/set)
Tuesday: 3x max dips, 3x inverted body rows on the dip bars (im literally in a fetal position under the bars and pulling myself up)+3x max dumbbell rows @40 then 30lbs, 3x walking lunges
Wednesday: 3x max pull-ups, 3x max foot raised deficit push-ups, 3x squats
Thursday: 3x max weighted chin ups (I put a 20lb dbell in a backpack, weighs about 27 total), 3x one sided/isolation push ups (3 per side), 3x walking lunges
Friday: Same as Tuesday but squats instead of lunges.
I'll also often do a more basic set of an exercise to finish like say just a set of push-ups after 3rd set of deficit push-ups. But work up your capacities and do what's tolerable. Forcing too much progress always leads to burnout.
Lot of info but I hope you appreciate it! A template you can consider when figuring out what you like best.
@@couchpotato4295 Hey! I find this routine to be a great sweet spot between effort and fatigue. Ok, well you asked for it....
Sunday: 3x max chin ups, 3x max deficit push ups, 3x walking lunges
Monday: EMOM 6 push-ups/3 pull-ups (this is what I started at, at first went for 15 minutes, built up to 75 minutes straight. Now increasing reps like 7/4 etc), 3x squats afterwards
Tuesday: 3x max dips, 3x inverted body rows (google will give the wrong result, I'm literally on my back, in fetal position beneath row parallettes, arms raised pulling myself up) + 3x bent dumbbell rows @40lbs then 30lbs, 3x walking lunges
Wednesday: 3x max pull ups, 3x max feet raised deficit push-ups, 3x squats
Thursday: 3x max weighted chin-ups (I do 20lbs in a backpack, total 27lbs..works for now), 3x max isolation/one-sided push-ups(3 sets per side, one arm underneath and one wide to the side), 3x walking lunges
Friday: Same as Tuesday but 3x squats instead of lunges.
Saturday: REST and EAT SOMETHING
So every day is a push, a pull, and legs. This is just where I'm at now, I worked up to this level and I'd recommend starting at 2x sets to begin, thats what I did.
So much depends on your fitness level, weight, body comp...a good starting point can be 40 squats a set. Increase by five as you see fit.
Then naturally you get stronger and more conditioned and want to push harder.
The necessary equipment here is a pull-up bar and dip bar. I also would recommend having some dumbbells as they are so versatile (and would work for dumbbell rows if that's something you want to do).
The most important thing is consistency. No single herculean workout will outdo the results yielded through consistency.
I could go on and on but this should give you a template and something to consider as you build your own routine.
My best advice...is to start. This is the best choice I have ever made in my life.
I feel like I've come home. This is exactly what I need to hear and there are so many great comments in this community. Blessings
Thanks my friend! I’m glad you enjoyed.
Your balanced approach to health has saved me from so many black-and-white thinking pitfalls. Because of your channel and careful explanation of physiological hygiene, I am both:
1. in the best physical shape I have ever been, and 2. I'm not afraid to celebrate brunch with my family on the weekend.
Being able to simply allow myself a celebration meal once a week while maintaining a consistent training routine is so incredibly unbelievable to me its hard to put in words. I used to stand by and watch my family eat pancakes, because I was terrified of ruining my progress. Now there is a whole world of new possibilities open to me.
Thank you for the effort and thought you out into your videos; they have been a big help along my path of recovery, both inside and out.
Lmao the world is so screwed if this common knowledge is lost.
The way I stay fit and healthy is living "naturally". Basically eat natural foods (Garden), workout the natural way ( running, biking, swimming, sports, etc). Just about everything I do I try to do it the natural way. Can't go wrong with doing things the way they were intended. Try and cut out time from technology, and you will feel like your day is so much longer. Try to not to eat to much processed foods or not any at all. And get some form of exercise and stretches everyday, and you will feel so much better.
Yep! That is a great way to approach it.
Keep up the great work, you definitely help us all . God Bless you and your family
I just shared this video with those I love. What an incredible message of hope and practical support.
It does make a lot of sense. Thank you so much for your constant great content!
I’ve started to really only listen to a couple RUclipsrs when it comes to anything fitness and you are the top one. This video perfectly explains why. Every thing in life has got so complicated but it’s nice to just get back to basics. Ironically, the basics are how you have the most success. Thanks for all your videos and advice! They help to change my mindset of trying to do everything to optimize my life, to just focus on the small things you can do.
This is strong encouragement coming from a man that is extremely disciplined. I'll keep doing my 2-3 kettlebell workouts a week and getting lots of steps.
You've been a great inspiration. I've trained more or less way you promote - by accident - since I had a shoulder injury in my early twenties. Im now 30. I found out that 'living active' and being consistent in at least doing some sort of practise daily made me overal fit without even that much of a struggle. Being patient got me a lot further than people around me jojoing with periods of training a intensively and then after all quiting. I support and share your message, thanks man.
Your video was very simple, and made your point in a wonderful way. KUDOS!!
man I love this dude, I'm studying exercise and health science and the further I get through my degree the more I realise most people just say nonsense and flex.
One of the most important messages, if not the most important one you have ever transmitted on this channel. Thanks a lot.
Wow thank you. That's very cool to hear, Tomas! Thank you for that kind feedback.
"Start small with what you can sustain no matter how seeming insignificant that is, and then slowly build from there.." This is great advice. Thank you
Glad it connected, Hiiiro!
Thank you for your service brother. As said during our last consultation, your contribution is making the world a better place
I truly appreciate that. Thank you.
Thanks for mentioning how much of a difference just having social connections and fun can also have on your overall health. I see a lot of people now on social media promoting the idea of cutting themselves off from their friends and any other form of enjoyment in order to reach what is essentially a non-sustainable routine and level of fitness. This advice of yours is grounded and centered in reality and I wish more people will realise the harm in ignoring the bare basics when it comes to health. Move well, eat well, learn well and rest well🙏
Thanks a lot man.
Exactly right, ROY. I couldn't agree more.
Lol we're coping with the fact we have no social life 😂🥲
I always get excited for your videos, Kyle! Never disappoints. Sometimes I get roped into the RUclips fitness algorithm and start over thinking stuff. Your channel keeps me grounded. Thanks brother 💪🏼
Thanks, Greg! I feel you. Lots of fancy stuff out there. Nothing wrong with checking it out and experimenting and seeing what it has to offer. Take what is useful, apply it, but always remember the core is in the basics.
Great message. There is a lot to be said for simplicity and a full heart. Thanks man.
Love your content, man!
Straight forward, easy to understand.. no BS!!
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Great content. Honest, truthful and from the heart.
Please keep it coming
Thank you, Rick!
Simplicity is the way to go for those crave consistenct success
Great message! It's the same principles I have started to implement recently and it is having a big effect, not just for my physical health but more noticably for my mental health.
So good to hear this! Keep it up, brother!
Always on point with these videos. It feels like your take on fitness is always what I need to hear.
Ah thank you Lorenzo! I appreciate that. Thank you for watching and for the kind words. Glad the video connected!
Excellent message!
I appreciate that, Darryl!
Yep! It's that simple, true words.
It really is!
The concept of "physiological hygiene" put everything in proper perspective for me. I keep referring to your words whenever talking with anyone about fitness and lifestyle. Thinking about my training as an integrated part of my life that defines my fitness baseline and not as an isolated event on top of life provided me with a powerful interface to my body.
It's been almost two years since I started working out according to your "foolproof" calisthenics program and it changed me and my body for the better. Thank you for the content.
Oh man this is comment makes my day, dude. That is the coolest thing to hear. So happy to hear it has been positive for you.
Keep me posted on how everything goes and never hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
Fantastically concise. Thank you. Good to hear this message again
Beautifully put, and amazing advice.
Nutrition, health, fitness, they really don’t have to be complicated.
If people just ate whole food, got 8 to 10 K steps, a day, and strength trained three times a week minimum, they really wouldn’t have many health issues other than what they couldn’t control.
They would feel amazing, look amazing, and be out performing 99% of people around them.
Exactly, brother! Thanks for the kind words.
I love what you are doing in the space! Keep at it!
The last part I find especially important because no one else will tell you this (of course they have monetary incentive not to). Fitness should ultimately be about being happier and living a more fulfilling life, so you need to find a way to make it sustainable and not take away from your life. Thanks for showing me the level of effort I can sustain is enough.
Exactly. If it’s not enhancing your life, it’s not helping you how you hope it will. It all has to work together to improve your quality of life.
You’re very down to earth man. That is rare on the internet and in the fitness community. God bless
This is the most practical video on fitness I have seen. So good! Keep up the good work!
Great video!
No time?
- 10 min HIIT cardio 3-5 times/week
- Push + Pull EMOM (every other day) for 20-30 min
- Core + Squats/Deadlits/Calves - 2 times per week
- Stretch 10 min every day, whatever time of the days fits you
I couldn’t agree more. This is exactly right!
push/pull/legs split is so nice because it doesn't make you fatigued like a whole body workout.
what is EMOM?
@@lilbabybudgie
Every Minute On the Minute.
For example: you clock/set a timer for 10 minutes, end every minute you do your exercise.
EMOM doesn't mean resting a minute between a set, but your rest-time between your sets depends how long your exercises takes. For example: you do 5 pushups, and rest as long as needed before the second minute starts, than the third minute, the fourth, fifth, all the way up to 10 min (or 15 min)
@@Beats-By-Anthonyhow would you progressively overload and prevent plateaus with this? I did your routine for about a month (from when you originally posted the comment) and just recently I haven’t been able to progress for 2 weeks. Usually, I increase by 1 rep e.g. if I’m doing 6 push-ups during the first 5 mins and 5 push-ups during the last 5 mins, I’ll increase the sixth minute to 6 push-ups, and so on when the previous minutes get easier and easier. But as I said the last 2 weeks I haven’t been able to progress at all, if anything I’ve actually decreased in the reps I can do per minute. What do you suggest? Both my push + pull EMOMs have plateaued and I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.
Love that SD canyon backyard!
Hahaha exactly! People who have lived in SoCal immediately recognizes the terrain. It's the SD canyon view!
Starting a new workout/diet regiment tomorrow. Been watching your videos for about 6 months and I finally decided to stop waiting for the right time and just get started. Trying to focus on form and consistency over results. Thanks for all the help so far.
So good to hear! Yeah man there is never a "perfect" time. It's just about doing it. In 6 months, you will be happy to have 6 months of training under your belt.
@@Kboges yeah my biggest problem in the past has been hyping up a work out plan and then if I missed a day or two it would totally derail my whole routine.
Very well Said.!!!!! Simply be grateful, discipline & consistency. Enjoy the process and have fun with it
i do 30 seconds of training spread throughtout the day every day. (things like weighted pullups, dips, military press, squats etc)
its kept me strong and lean for 15 years and i also dont do cardio and eat whatever the fuck i want!
people would be shocked how easy it is to stay in shape. i dont even remember the last time i broke a sweat.
training doesnt have to be miserable or grueling. it is honestly the fucking highlight of my day thats why i do it every day
I love it, Nick! You got it dialed! 💪
“Fitness industry” is synonymous with “roided social media personalities” (they don’t even deserve to be called bodybuilders). Awful diets, awful workouts, walking ads for supplements, boring personalities, what a life. They may get more followers, but we’ll get more years. Stay clean, stay hard friends 😉
Well said!
I needed this reminder, thank you
This is an excellent reminder, thank you!
Ronnie Coleman worked out 45 min a day. Yes, he was on fuel. As a natty myself, it’s not rocket science to eat better generally. Take a muscle group to failure, and hit your macros for your goal. I’m a husband, dad, homeowner, musician and work full time as a Merchant Mariner. If you want it bad enough, and in my case get mad enough, you’ll quit snacking on lizard shit and make it happen. Headed to leg day now 👊
"We overestimate what we can achieve in a year, and underestimate what we can in seven."
Heard that somewhere a while ago, and I think it goes along well with what you're saying here. Focus on the basics with (some) discipline on a daily basis (it's okay to have your off day or days though) and you should be fine. Thanks for sharing!
Wow I love that. So true. Thank you for sharing!
Your video really spoke to me. Thank you! I'm a very sedentary person heading into winter (Southern hemisphere) and stressing that I need exercise but that it's going to be harder and darker to workshop in the mornings. Being mindful to stick to the basics and that it's not just exercise but being outdoors, having fun, and a purpose are just as important.
You bring it to the point. You bring light in the confusion.💯

Great advice and a great reminder. Thanks
Man I love this channel. Your mix of practical training and practical life philosophy is so sobering.
I just became a father for the second time, and this channel has been super helpful when trying to stay active! I have switched to 1 set to failure daily of push/pull/legs (and some core in addition), and your thoughts on technique and mindset have been great. I get some great results from simply training in between everything else.
Your thoughts on life in general are also helpfull. There are other ways to stay healthy and fit than desperately clinging to my 10 km run, but sometimes that change is scary to make. Your channel stands out, and have made these things easier! Thank you!
Wow congrats on the second one, Jon! I have my second coming in September and already am anticipating making similar changes in training. Thanks for the views and comments, brother. Best of luck with the new one!
@@Kboges congratulations!
This might just be the best, most concise, most perfectly-worded video on health and wellbeing I’ve ever seen. Kudos
And I think you've made it even simpler by your empasis on good form and consistency. Thanks again! 👍
Thank you! Yeah that's exactly my goal. Do it well. Doit often. It will pay off.
Man, you’re such an inspiration. Well said and keep up the excellent work!
I appreciate that, brother. Thank you for the support.
Wise words my friend thank you for the reminder! 💪
K boges, you absolute bloody champion. I love the information you bring to us, such a simple and refined approach to general health but extremely effective and with minimal mental stress.
I often find myself getting caught up trying to optimize the current program I'm on and trying to figure out if I'm rested enough to go again, or if I'm strong enough to push higher weights or reps.. But eventually burnout or accidently overtrain and get sick. Whereas all I should have done from the start to obtain my goals was to focus on the fundamentals and the basics...
Cheers once again champion, keep up the great work. Thank you for all the hard work and the information you share to us.
A big thanks for bringing this style of training to my attention, K boges. As a former gym goer I was a bit skeptical at first, but now training like this for over a year I can attest the results are amazing. All the equipment I have now is a pull-up bar, gymnastic rings and an elastic band.
Dude that is awesome! Yeah the basics can do more for us than most of us think. It really just comes down to hitting them consistently and treating them with some reverence; trying to get really good at them.
Thank you for the video ❤
This is why you are one of three RUclips channels that I subscribe to, down to earth advice with no bs.
I appreciate that!
Your channel, kneesovertoesguy, and squat university are the only fitness channels I watch these days. I’m much more into finding a consistent, repeatable fitness plan these days rather than finding the optimal powerlifting or hypertrophy focused routine. I’ve also neglected mobility work my whole life. Focusing on my lower back and core has benefitted me tremendously.
Love the message. Simple basics and not over-engineered.
This message is sooo important. I'm 44 and have struggled with my weight and fitness through the years. I was always looking for the food "hack" e.g. Keto, Carnivore. Not saying those diets don't have merit, especially for those who have tolerance issues. But somewhere along the way I forgot to keep it simple and consistent, to just make better choices. Thank you for your consistent sober advice.
Hey thank you for this!!
Thank you so much...
What you provide is a breath of fresh air, thanks for the free info, Kyle!
My pleasure, Andrew! Thank you for the kind words.
This is such great advice, keep it simple and remember the basics, build out from there if you want.
Great thoughts. Thanks for sharing man.
Thanks for watching! 🙏
Amazing message.
Great script, well said and thank you!
One of the best videos out-there. Not trying to be shocking, profit-seeking or secretive .. straight to the point with simple advices applicable for the rest of one's life.
I just recently found and subscribed to your channel when I was looking for info on grease the groove; I am working on getting my push-ups to a place where I can do enough of them for a workout, and I'm working on just acquiring pull-ups at all. I think your channel and your work is excellent. I've definitely struggled with information overload and trying to find the optimal balance of All The Things. Your approach or philosophy of treating exercise as hygiene really cut through a lot of BS and clarified the confusion I was experiencing.
It's only been a couple of weeks, but I've been alternating between calisthenics basics and a yoga practice each day. It feels great, it's straight forward, and I already feel like I'm seeing changes in how I look and how I carry myself. Once I have pull-ups in my toolkit, I'll probably toss a working set of those in on my yoga days.
All of this is to say, thank you very much for your work and the knowledge you share here. It helped me find a path forward when I felt completely overwhelmed with finding the right exercise schedule for me.
The little simple things.......daily walks makes a huge difference for a positive body image🎉
Your content is gold man, thank you. I always make sure to keep it simple the branch out from there. Have to work on consistency though
Amen to this. Thank you.
Always straight to the point content which we can all apply, Thanks K Boges!!
Thank you!
Thank you!
THank you for an honest video and absolutely spot on, we dont have time to do all those fitness trend video. I did the full on 4 days a week "push harder" training, yes I lost weight, toned up but I was so tired and had no time for anything else. Now I do the 3 days a week with basic exercises (press-ups, sit ups or leg raises, squats, some skipping or kettle bell swings) done normally in the morning and late afternoon, then 2 to 3 days a week, running 5km to 8km with local running club (not pushing it but to my limit and how I feel at the time, as sometimes I know I have the energy to do sub 30min 5km). Mixed with stretching / Yoga / mindful meditation. The key thing, as you mentioned, limited alcohol and processed food, but plenty of water and fresh food. Returning to the basic training but making it consistent and regular will help.
