      Exercise and making music but I have to learn to switch out one day I do more exercise than music and the other vice versa, the animal crawls, with minor handstands, lunges and middle splits and I increase the ranges with heavy biking and weighted rows

      For consistency, I do at least two sets of pull up, push up, squat variations. 2-3 times a week. This gives me the basis to do other fun stuff like climbing, crawling and hand stands. This is thanks to your video on working the basics consistently! Thanks for all the fun and inspiration!

    I could not agree more. At 52 I have found wisdom in the "less is more" approach, as injuries can come out of pushing too hard. My average weekly routine is 6 days stretching, 6 days walking, 3 days strength training, and 3 days cardio. Congrats on fatherhood. I just entered grandfatherhood a few weeks back ...what a blessing it is.

    It’s unbelievable how hard it is to find a video on RUclips that simply tells you you don’t need expensive equipment or strict routines, and to just move, for at least 15 minutes a day.
    I convinced myself that if I can’t do HIIT every day, then what even is the point? So then I’d end up doing nothing at all, due to the pressure of seeing others do so much, always so many trends, so many nutritional ‘experts’ that it can become maddening.
    You have no idea what a treasure your channel is - thank you, and belated congratulations on becoming a father ❤

    Spot on...been struggling with this for years, trying this and that and in the end I gave up completely and that deteriorated my health. Now I focus on sleep, eating more vegetables, light-moderate weight training, yoga and primal/animal flow. Lost weight and fell better than ever. Peace!

      Totally agree. Before I used to weight train too much now it's like 3 to 4 times a week and sometimes just 40 minutes per session. Balance is key to everything in life including exercise.
      The other thing I used to do is eat a lot to bulk. Eating too much I feel is never healthy. Used to get quite a few stomach issues due to this aswell.

    Congrats man! My advice to you is to take your fitness advice and apply it to parenthood. Keep it simple. Raising kids can be overwhelming but when I look back on it only a few things really mattered. Are they happy? Are they healthy? and do they know you love them no matter what or who they become? The rest is noise. Good luck and thanks for the great content.

    Also the advice and wisdom in this video is so spot on. This is it 100%. Find something you love doing that makes you fit and do it all the time because you love it. As long as it's fairly well rounded, you'll be set.

I went into my journey with a "chew the fruit and spit out the seeds" mindset to exercises you were teaching and ended up where you you just suggested, movement - exercise - should feel good.
    Keep the inspirational mind working and enjoy the parenting roller coaster. There is nothing more fulfilling!

    Congrats on all of this! Funnily enough when friends of mine ask for tips when they're about to become a father, my go-to advice has been "get into a consistent stretching routine" because that helped me with all the playing on the floor, getting stuck under a sleeping baby for hours in a weird position, etc - and it was your early videos (plus GMB's Elements program) that I used in those days! I guess you don't need that tip, so the other one is to generally try to enjoy it, be present, be kind to yourself and your partner. Exciting times!

    I am doing "Move Strong Now" and it has been working very well for me. Falling exactly into the trap you mentioned and having purchased tons of books and online courses over the years (but never being consistent about it, always quitting after an injury or getting a cold or whatever), Move Strong Now works for me because... I like to do it every day! Simple as that.
    I am very glad I found you guys, your approach seems to work for me and I am glad to be along for the ride. Other people like crossfit, and that is fine too.
    Your emails and thoughtful and (dare I say it) wise videos have really made a difference for my well being. Thank you and congratulations on everything you have achieved!

    So with you on this, keep it simple, enjoy it and try to be consistent and if not, forgive and start again. If you are not enjoying the journey, feeling joy, but looking damn good, then it's not worth it. Social media is like peer pressure in high school, it's a step back. The sooner you minimize it, keeping on to channels like this where there is no pressure of sales but useful information and even keep that to a minimum, then you are on the right track. Desire to do anything to improve is great, but beware when it comes toxic.

    Gratz on becoming a father.
    Staying true to the basics is always the best! All those flashy new stuff or routines or whatever are good if you are a professional sporter and need those extra marginal gains, i guess. For me 4x going to the gym (semi personal trainer), eating healthy for about 80% and trying to get in my hours of sleep is what works pretty ok. Getting closer and closer to that 15% fat, coming from 20 to 25% and gaining muscle/strength. Only thing lacking is mobility/flexibilty because i don't like doing that very much tbh... I know i should do it, but being close to 48 everything hurts when i try to stretch, hahaha.

I just want to say how much I appreciate your content and knowledge, hope to meet you guys someday! ❤ I'm training to play badminton at a competition level and I just finished my PhD in astrophysics ( so much of what you guys talk about would be so dope to discuss under a sky full of stars if I ever got the chance). so excited for the future!

    @andrew6889-p5c Год назад

    Congrats.
    Love this message. I agree 100%. I also think there is no need to totally optimize fitness. Just doing a “fairly good job” should be the goal and shooting for that often leads to better outcomes anyway.
    I also think that it’s weird that normal people get fitness advice from people who spend most of their day thinking about and working on fitness. It gives a very distorted view of what’s achievable and practical.
    I also think “find the exercises you love” is such a key philosophy. I really love running. It’s not a perfect exercise, but somehow I always feel (and look) better once I really get into. Even if that means my strength work gets a little less focus.

    Congrats on becoming a dad dude! I'm 29 and my wife and I's 1st baby is due in 31 days! Kinda freaking out but in a good way. I've been following your channel for a little over a year now and I love the positivity and fitness info you provide. I had never heard of primal movements until I found you guys, and they are not only fun, but they open up my body and allow me to take on life and have a better attitude. There's no doubt you'll be an awesome role model for your kiddo and I hope to as well.

    Sleep is easily the hardest part of it all. With two kids who struggle to sleep and as a firefighter, I struggle to consistently get 5 or 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep every night. A far cry from what my body needs.
    Congrats on your new journey, family always comes first!

    • @Strengthside

  • @Stoltz123
    @Stoltz123 Год назад +1

    First - Congratulations on soon becoming a parent!
    Second - This is so damn solid, doing what you *like* doing *consistently* for an extended amount of time is the real name of the game for the majority of us. And I know you mention ten years, but I'd say even doing that for one year, being consistent and consistently enjoying the journey, and minimizing the input from others on what you do, will for a lot of people change your entire experience and development.
    I used to run a 3 day/week Full Body routine in a time when it was basically "killing your gains" and I did it for one year and got stronger than I've ever been (and that remains my top pure one rep strength) and more muscular than I had been before. A few years later my life changes and I can consistently run a classic bro-split for the first time in my life, and almost double the volume from what I used to do with the 3 day/week Full body routine I had a few years later. My strength increased very well, but even more so my muscles grew beyond what I thought I was able to.
    What I took away from them was honestly that none of them were necessarily better than the other, they both gave me increased strength and size, but the major important thing is that it was something I enjoyed that I didn't need to stress about, during those respective times in my life. And when I left the bro-split to again do a full body 3 day/week, I did so because I knew that routine would minimize the stress of getting the work in, in relation to the rest of my life, and would allow me to continue to be consistent.
    It's a game changer having that mindset above all else.

    • @BK-mk3vi
      @BK-mk3vi Год назад +1

      I've gone back to a minimalist 3 day/week training style focusing on the big compounds. I've tried higher volume workouts and they are fun but just not sustainable for me. I feel like focusing on what's necessary is important. It's why so many people who go to the gym cannot get the results they desire. Consistency is the most important factor along with putting all of your effort on what matters most. In fact, recently my upper body has gotten so big to the point that I could not even fit in a nice suit to attend someone's wedding. It really put things into perspective. For the vast majority of people, all they want is a fit looking body that moves & feels good. Bro split training is fun, being big is fun, but being injured & burnt out or sacrificing other aspects of your life is not so fun. I think when someone comes to this realization, it really shows maturity of being a real lifter. You recognize what makes you happy & what you no longer value. Good for you man, keep doing you.

    An absolutely excellent message, so true and few who say it so succinctly, a true mental hack for organizing our routines and daily lives and avoiding paralysis by analysis (in my case). I rarely comment on anything (on social media) and am pretty much inactive, but on this one I can't help but say GREAT JOB Strength Side, and congrats on the newborn already! Many best regards

  • @gemmadidit4118

    The park where I walk has a group that meets to work out and I was tempted to join the trainer. But I so enjoy the alternative things I do that I think I would be losing something by going back to basic single muscle exercises. This video popped up as if in answer to my thoughts. I far prefer checking in with my body and doing what it seems to need on any given day. The result is that I consistently feel the NEED to move, whether it's kettle bell, some kind of weird intuitive stretch or aerobic breathing or whatever is in my workout Playlist that calls to me. I love what's happened to my body by just being playful like you seem to be. Yours is gonna be one lucky kid!
