I do yoga in the morning. Just like 7 poses. 3 of which are lying down. I dont always wanna do it. But makes me feel better later in the day. Somehhow.
When I was depressed I was stubborn. Took me two years of working out to realize it helped me get out of the bad mindspace and help build better habits@@alizarkami6187
Keep the channel in this figuring-it-out phase for its entire life, please. The unpolished nature of it makes it relatable and motivating. Knowing the polish of a typical workout video is making it look easier than it is will make the video seem inauthentic or like its trying to convince people of something.
for anyone reading this-if you're struggling to stick to a consistent exercise routine, find the sport/physical activity that you really vibe with and have the motivation to do! Any exercise, whether it's walking or tai chi or rock climbing or powerlifting, is infinitely better than not doing any exercise at all
This!!! I'm a lazy fuck so for me the gamechanger was an exercise bike and elastic bands; it makes it so easy to just change clothes, walk to the other room, and whip out a workout
Lifting weights has always felt like such a chore 2 me I have always hated it, but pilates and yoga really appeal to me, and roller skating! I'm working on my splits ATM and that goal is really keeping me going bc I really want to do the splits 😭
I like when you ramble in videos to be honest. It feels more relatable that way. I myself can't seem to keep track of what I'm talking about and am often scatter brained and I feel so self-conscious about it. Not often you come across creators being this vulnerable and transparent. It's something I didn't know I needed in a creator. I'm just thankful for your content. I hope you have a transformative time in Thailand under the circumstances.
When I was unemployed I walked 10k steps everyday without even realizing it. I was physically and mentally healthier. The only thing keeping me from being happy with my life was money.
I love this format you’re doing. It’s so authentic and so subversive against the tired IG hot body looks max model that gives people collective self esteem issues. I especially love that you’re emphasizing fitness for the benefits of just feeling better as opposed to solely doing it for the looks. Please keep it up!
recently started going on really long walks like I’m talking an hour and a half and almost 5 miles a day, not to be dramatic or anything but it’s really changed my life
SO REAL, I used to do this all the time and it was something about watching the sun rise gradually as I walked higher up the hill, I genuinely think it healed something in me because I felt a stronger love for everything. Hippie as it sounds idk
I used to take several 20+ minute walks on most days. It's crazy what a difference that makes. I also recommend taking an afternoon to hike/explore some local trails. Bring plenty of snacks & hydration and spend a few hours seeing things you normally miss~ My favorite thing a couple years ago was taking 4+ hours walking to and around a local pond. I lived there over 30 years before finding out that was even an option. Shoutout to trail apps for the discovery!
honestly my best advice for workout motivation when depressed / anxious is - you might not feel „good“ after, because you‘re depressed, but you might feel nothing, and sometimes that‘s good enough. or at least better than obsessive overthinking. this is advice to me btw
I think of it as... if I'm feeling tired after doing exercise, at least I'm feeling something other than depression or emptiness for a change (which is kind of the opposite of what you said, but your comment still resonated somehow lol)
Getting a gym membership was what broke me out of a year long rut. It can be the catalyst that gives you the energy and discipline to do literally everything else you want to do
I got back in the gym for strength training this year and I agree to some extent. Takes time and energy out of my routine, but changed my mood and my appetite(!) over night. C'mon discipline train!!
It was a breakup for me. He said “I just don’t feel the spark anymore” so I lost 30 pounds. I’m already a pretty confident person, so now I’m a confident person with beautiful thighs and a flat stomach.
it’s cool to see health and exercise content from a leftist creator. as a person who’s struggled with exercise due to my disability, i often find that self help pages (often unintentionally) will make us sound lazy or not motivated enough. knowing your perspective on disabilities and accessibility it makes learning about these things from you far easier, because i know you’re already pretty decently educated on the topic
It’s nice to see a normal ass person doing a normal ass workout and hearing the struggle and seeing the sweat. And your rambling is really pleasant and fascinating
i honestly love this new self help channel, as a neurodivergent human doing chores and working out is very hard for me, and watching a video where someone else is cleaning their house and working out really helps because it feels like i have someone body doubling with me in the room and it just makes things so much easier. thank you noah! i'm gonna clean my room today!
I just binge watched this whole channel while deep cleaning my room, not because of any external validation, but because I deserve to have a clean space. This content is fantastic and I hope other people get as much out of it as I am.
Like others here, I too am getting back to working out as I claw myself back out of the depression hole. It's been a stubborn one, but it'll never out-stubborn me 💪🏼
I started working out while listening to this, I got the motivation to do a full set, recently have been very depressed, and as such my work outs have been shorter. Thank you Noah.
These videos get me out of my depressive laziness and help me actually start doing things I've been wanting to but have been too exhausted to actually do. This video made me finally put my standing pull up bar together and actually use it. Fuck you Noah, your actually making me live healthier.
Core exercises are important to preventing low back pain, and crunches in particular I i found out I was doing wrong -- I was focusing on the upper part of the abs too much but the oblique and lower core, like almost to the top of the groin area, are what needs to engage to stabilize my core to relieve my lumbar pain. I learned this from a physical therapist who put a pressure gauge under my lower back and made me engage those muscles to keep it at 40 torr for 30-second sets. I realized I'd been doing "core exercises" without ever engaging those muscles before.
it's like you know exactly what i needed i literally just went to the doctor and couldnt resume my really effective medication simply because my cholesterol was too high and she said i have two months to get it under control
That's rough buddy, I feel for you (constantly keeping blood pressure in check). Make sure you have an actionable plan, and you can do this! Best of luck!
@@GTaichouSame here. I started bp medication 2 weeks ago because I dragged my heels on starting a plan but like OP, I'd be risking effective medication (for ADHD in my case) if I don't do anything. Plus I feel like sht just on a physical existence kinda level from what I can only describe as low-level muscle wasting. So like, I gotta change that.
I know few too many people who refuse to exercise or put effort into feeling better. My tip is to stretch. It is even better if you do it before and after a workout.
@cloudbrooksmain not really, tbh. Refusal can be for good or bad reasons. It's still refusal though. As someone dealing with depression, me not exercising for months during a down period is refusal on my part, even though the mental exhaustion is a good reason many people don't exercise. After all, most adults are working a job which already demands most of their time and leaves a lot of us exhausted.
I went through a rough breakup recently, 6 year relationship ended badly, and I’ve started running at least 2 miles 4x a week and then body weight exercises right after. It’s improved my sleep, my mental state, and my body feels better. Keep up the good work and I’ve been loving these videos!
I like the chores videos, but I'm glad to see some workout content. I was bummed out your workout channel hasn't been updated in a long time. Though I can get not wanting to film in the gym. So this works!
Calisthenics are great! I've always been to lazy to actually go to a gym, but taking 5-10min breaks and doing some exercises throughout the day works for me. I like how body weight stuff scales well too by changing the weight distribution slightly. Helps me with my mood quite a bit i feel.
The reasons I love these videos so much is because there’s something so satisfying about a RUclipsr mentioning all the fucked up shit in the world while doing everyday things. Because thats how I feel, I do everyday things, and while I do them I’m constantly remembering that thousands and millions of people are dead and dying. Children under rubble. A nonbinary kid was just murdered in an Oklahoma high school and it wasn’t reported on until yesterday. Cobalt mines poising the whole of Congo. The trans genocide in America. And I watch people NOT talking about any of it, and it makes me think i’m crazy. So creators like this are a breath of relief. Because it reminds me I’m not fucking crazy, I’m angry AND SHOULD BE ANGRY.
@@ellasteyn3844 I think it depends on what level your core strength is at. Right now I can’t do sit ups without my feet lifting slightly off the floor. I’m working towards the goal of not hooking my feet, and every day I do them I’m using my feet less, but right now that’s just where I’m at.
Oh man this was great vibes, I like the kinda laidback style for workout vids -- I don't like overproduced or hype stuff at all. Just ppl doing some seemingly simple moves doable at home for long enough to get tired while just chatting, love it. Also: Situps suuuuuuck, I will do literally anything but those. The almost-lifted legs, the unbalanced feel, my back weirdly interacting with the floor, UGH!
A video of you cleaning your sister's bathroom was on my home page. I enjoyed it for some reason so I subscribed. I didn't find out til today that you have a main channel. Fortunately I'm a big ole Leftie.
I remember watching someone say that there are different types of rest that our bodies need, social, emotional, away from technology etc. and they said that working out was also a form of rest for the body and that blew my mind. They were pointing out that it sounds counterintuitive, why would anyone want to work out when they feel defeated or tired, but I tried it out instead of taking my depression nap and it swept me out of my depression spiral lol
Only for variety, Ive never found solace or help in working out. It does nothing for me and I usually ended up in the gym cause I was forced or my body confidence was low. I find alot in taking a walk or listening to something I enjoy and that helps me instead.
Really love what you’ve been doing on this channel! I transferred to a new school recently and am living alone, a lot of change and a lack of motivation to take care of myself. Your videos always make me get my ass up and do one thing :) Workout vlogging is awesome, the voice over and normal speed is great! Also, since you’re still figuring out what you want to do with this channel, maybe do a census like the vlogbrothers. You can even make a video of the census results 🔥‼️content‼️🔥 lol. Anyways, your channel’s rad, keep it up!
my condition is so bad i rarely actually feel better after exercising, but obviously i still gotta do it. cleaning videos were surprisingly effective so i'll try this one too. thank you king or whatever the kids say.
doing a small workout as i'm watching this. i don't like working out, never have, but as someone with depression the "take a walk, you'll feel better" thing actually is true. still trying to figure out what kinds of workouts i should do that's not too much and can keep me healthy, and this video is super encouraging. thanks a lot, noah. hope you enjoy your stay in thailand :]
You’re doing great man! It’s insane how much getting out and getting active improves your mood. I just moved with my dog to a new city. And if it wasn’t for taking my dog on long walks and going to the gym I would’ve already succumbed to the seasonal depression. This is awesome.
this format is amazing, thanks a lot for your help, it’s making a big difference in my day to day life (and i think it’s the more important in content) so thanks a lot
i like working out on the side I'm not a fit person but i enjoy the effort that you do when you do work out, taking the effort to get up and do something that keeps me going in life. and thank you noah for being a good influence in my life and others. 💚
I love these videos, they’re so down to earth and it’s nice to put them on in the background while doing chores or care tasks. Like a lot of people have said, I feel like it’s pretty similar to body doubling 😊
I finally got a gym membership this week. It's only been a little while but I already have so much energy. I'm grateful, but at the same time I hate it took me so long to start. If you're having doubts about its benefits just go for. The people in the gym are so nice :). I hope I can remain consistent
Absolutely loving the Thailand vibes of your room. The fan, the mat, all of it. It makes me really miss living there. Looking forward to more stuff while you're over there.
Wow, i never knew I needed these types of videos since… well, don’t think i’ve come across anything else like this out here. It’s comforting, the lack of too much over-editing, just… i dont have to listen to the voices in my head? And I don’t feel like someone is trying to shove something down my throat (lmao ronnie, pick your fights, fr, that was a poor choice of words). The way you speak is somewhat familiar to me. And picking a character as a motivation is very relatable as well. Really cool video! Thanks. It made me kinda crave an outside walk. Cheers ✨
I just wanna say I love you. I’ve only watched clips of some of your videos since it popped up for the first time on my feed & my medicated ADHD bc of the shortages, but I love you. I feel like I just made a friend, and today a friend like you is needed.
Hey noah, i opened this video this morning. It inspired me. Even though im feeling pretty down at the moment, I went and swam some laps and it made me feel better. I came back to the couch opened RUclips, and here you are again. What a cool thing to so quickly see my mood change and juxtapose the feeling of leaving and returning to this video. Thanks
This inspired me to move around a bit. While kind of half-listening, mostly body doubling, I found an accessible way to do a sit-up for the first time in my life. I like how chill your stuff is and I love that there is no pressure to participate. It's just nice. ❤
I do really enjoy your cleaning videos. They are relatable. I've been using a cleaning journal to help give me a sort of schedule until I can get in with the job I want. It's a great thing, so it is kind of nice to see content that reflects the kind of stuff I am working on in my home. But bro... If you hadn't mentioned the ASMR stuff about you doing exercise noises, I would have never noticed...But now I cannot unhear it...Not that I am complaining, but this is on you.
Amazing video once again ! Your positive self-improvement energy is really needed in a space where it's all far right adjascent. Please keep going !! Ps I got 4 dips today whereas I couldn't do a single pushup a year ago 😎the gym truly is a saving grace
i literally JUST decided to do more cardio and began my attempt at day one of a “couch to 5k” program today… I could only finish half of it and it was really demoralizing. Seeing you push through and reading all the comments here for people who are in a similar place is super reassuring to me though!
Work has bled into my lifting time and its definitely fucked my mental up. Everything has kind of gotten off track. Looking forward to getting back in soon
Honestly, Ive found that anything more than elbows past your hips (before touching quads) and my hip flexor starts taking over. Glad to see this content. I very much agree with you, I find that exercise helps my overall mental health, both in the moment and overall. Thank you for being a positive figure!
Enjoy your metabolism while you are in your 20s, Noah. You still have a young man's body that is still in great shape, believe it or not. You come from an athletic background, so I think you will do well when you are in your 30s and beyond. I'm in my early 40s, and I'm glad that I've had the ability to stay in a healthy weight range this whole time. With empathy, I know for other folks there are more complicated medical reasons and genetics that makes it difficult for them to feel comfortable in their bodies, but that doesn't make them any less of an amazing person. Much love and compassion to anyone who reads my comment.
Depressed person with ocd here - this shit helps so much. I hurt my back deadlifting last week and I miss the hell out of the gym and can’t wait to go back
Started working out after my sciatica mostly went away in hopes of helping with my existing back problem (by strengthen the core and other muscles to help with posture and balance). This became a way to procrastinate without feeling guilty about it.
As someone with depression, i hate that this works
I do yoga in the morning. Just like 7 poses. 3 of which are lying down. I dont always wanna do it. But makes me feel better later in the day. Somehhow.
So true
What why do you hate it
When I was depressed I was stubborn. Took me two years of working out to realize it helped me get out of the bad mindspace and help build better habits@@alizarkami6187
It’s the worst isn’t it orz
Unironically loving this arc of what are essentially self care body doubling videos
Honestly!! Watching him clean his sisters bathroom made me clean mine lmao
Wholesome era 🖤
Keep the channel in this figuring-it-out phase for its entire life, please. The unpolished nature of it makes it relatable and motivating. Knowing the polish of a typical workout video is making it look easier than it is will make the video seem inauthentic or like its trying to convince people of something.
i second this! the figuring out phase is awesome :)
for anyone reading this-if you're struggling to stick to a consistent exercise routine, find the sport/physical activity that you really vibe with and have the motivation to do! Any exercise, whether it's walking or tai chi or rock climbing or powerlifting, is infinitely better than not doing any exercise at all
'gamifying' your physical activity also helps a lot, like uploading your runs to Strava or even playing dance dance revolution
This!!! I'm a lazy fuck so for me the gamechanger was an exercise bike and elastic bands; it makes it so easy to just change clothes, walk to the other room, and whip out a workout
Start with walking. It's accessible to many and is by far the easiest way to get serotonin flowing in your brain. Atleast for me
@@nateranda this is so real, i started playing beat saber and two years later i've lost more than 10 lbs because i am always motivated to keep playing
Lifting weights has always felt like such a chore 2 me I have always hated it, but pilates and yoga really appeal to me, and roller skating! I'm working on my splits ATM and that goal is really keeping me going bc I really want to do the splits 😭
I like when you ramble in videos to be honest. It feels more relatable that way. I myself can't seem to keep track of what I'm talking about and am often scatter brained and I feel so self-conscious about it.
Not often you come across creators being this vulnerable and transparent. It's something I didn't know I needed in a creator. I'm just thankful for your content. I hope you have a transformative time in Thailand under the circumstances.
I also have this issue and it as well makes me so self conscious ❤ just wanted to say you’re not alone.
I also like these, it’s a good type of video for listening when I do something else and can watch parts of it
Yes fr tho it's relatable and soothing
facts
When I was unemployed I walked 10k steps everyday without even realizing it. I was physically and mentally healthier. The only thing keeping me from being happy with my life was money.
I love this format you’re doing. It’s so authentic and so subversive against the tired IG hot body looks max model that gives people collective self esteem issues. I especially love that you’re emphasizing fitness for the benefits of just feeling better as opposed to solely doing it for the looks. Please keep it up!
That gives people collective self esteem issues.....
This is spot on.
recently started going on really long walks like I’m talking an hour and a half and almost 5 miles a day, not to be dramatic or anything but it’s really changed my life
SO REAL, I used to do this all the time and it was something about watching the sun rise gradually as I walked higher up the hill, I genuinely think it healed something in me because I felt a stronger love for everything. Hippie as it sounds idk
i believe you
I used to take several 20+ minute walks on most days. It's crazy what a difference that makes.
I also recommend taking an afternoon to hike/explore some local trails. Bring plenty of snacks & hydration and spend a few hours seeing things you normally miss~
My favorite thing a couple years ago was taking 4+ hours walking to and around a local pond. I lived there over 30 years before finding out that was even an option. Shoutout to trail apps for the discovery!
honestly my best advice for workout motivation when depressed / anxious is - you might not feel „good“ after, because you‘re depressed, but you might feel nothing, and sometimes that‘s good enough. or at least better than obsessive overthinking.
this is advice to me btw
Yeah sometimes the closest I can get to feeling good is just feeling tired.
If you're too tired to think, you're too tired to cry🙃
actually thank you for saying this, i havent thought about it this way, but its really helpful
I think of it as... if I'm feeling tired after doing exercise, at least I'm feeling something other than depression or emptiness for a change (which is kind of the opposite of what you said, but your comment still resonated somehow lol)
Getting a gym membership was what broke me out of a year long rut. It can be the catalyst that gives you the energy and discipline to do literally everything else you want to do

It was a breakup for me. He said “I just don’t feel the spark anymore” so I lost 30 pounds. I’m already a pretty confident person, so now I’m a confident person with beautiful thighs and a flat stomach.
Both the cleaning and the workout videos are much appreciated, thank you Noah!!!

It’s nice to see a normal ass person doing a normal ass workout and hearing the struggle and seeing the sweat. And your rambling is really pleasant and fascinating
dude you crackd into a cool little niche I think, body-double ramble videos, it's just nice company and I appreciate it
i honestly love this new self help channel, as a neurodivergent human doing chores and working out is very hard for me, and watching a video where someone else is cleaning their house and working out really helps because it feels like i have someone body doubling with me in the room and it just makes things so much easier. thank you noah! i'm gonna clean my room today!

i love the feeling of being sore the day after a good workout. very satisfying
I always feel better when I bike to work compared to when I drive to work
Like others here, I too am getting back to working out as I claw myself back out of the depression hole.
It's been a stubborn one, but it'll never out-stubborn me 💪🏼

I know few too many people who refuse to exercise or put effort into feeling better. My tip is to stretch. It is even better if you do it before and after a workout.
The word "refuse" is pretty intense for such a thing
I would add to make your pre workout stretches dynamic/movement exercises rather than holding a static stretch. Better for warming up.
how?@@cloudbrooksalt
@cloudbrooksmain not really, tbh. Refusal can be for good or bad reasons. It's still refusal though.

Yeah never work out seems like a chore.
“not a bug, just a rug”
I appreciate seeing someone else being not great at situps. Don't think I've ever been able to do them my whole life

For sit ups, hook your feet under something like a heavy couch or chair. Helps give you leverage so you can get a full range of motion on your crunch
Not necessarily the best way to get benefits from sit ups
@@ellasteyn3844 I think it depends on what level your core strength is at. Right now I can’t do sit ups without my feet lifting slightly off the floor. I’m working towards the goal of not hooking my feet, and every day I do them I’m using my feet less, but right now that’s just where I’m at.
first Thailand video yeesss!! i did squats with you thank you Noah hihi

Noah Samsen working out, trying to become Brock Samson.
Who was that?
Brock fuckin Samson.
Ooh! Dibs on his cigarette butt!

Yeah I've never worked out, my grandpa made it to 90 that way lol
i did not have the odd thought of 'oh omg noah's doing push ups over top of me' but you put it there so thanks noah 😭😂
Really love what you’ve been doing on this channel! I transferred to a new school recently and am living alone, a lot of change and a lack of motivation to take care of myself. Your videos always make me get my ass up and do one thing :)

All of these vids are super motivating. Thanks King.
this is all the motivation I needed, thank you
Thank you for this video. I needed the push to get back into it.
was just on a binge of ur videos while doing my laundry lol this is perfect thank you dude
The more casual/improvisational the more I tend to like these videos
doing a small workout as i'm watching this. i don't like working out, never have, but as someone with depression the "take a walk, you'll feel better" thing actually is true. still trying to figure out what kinds of workouts i should do that's not too much and can keep me healthy, and this video is super encouraging. thanks a lot, noah. hope you enjoy your stay in thailand :]
I really appreciate this series. Thank you. ❤❤❤
You’re doing great man! It’s insane how much getting out and getting active improves your mood. I just moved with my dog to a new city. And if it wasn’t for taking my dog on long walks and going to the gym I would’ve already succumbed to the seasonal depression. This is awesome.
This video popping up on my youtube recommended actually got me to sit up and move a little myself thank you!!
I love that I found you a few years ago and you introduced me to creators like Foreign
this format is amazing, thanks a lot for your help, it’s making a big difference in my day to day life (and i think it’s the more important in content) so thanks a lot
i like working out on the side I'm not a fit person but i enjoy the effort that you do when you do work out, taking the effort to get up and do something that keeps me going in life. and thank you noah for being a good influence in my life and others. 💚
man i love your content,
i’ve been hoping you’d do more workout content for a while. also love this channel as a whole
I like the workout videos, i think normal speed with the voiceover is great and better than the 5x silly version. Thanks man :)
I love these videos, they’re so down to earth and it’s nice to put them on in the background while doing chores or care tasks. Like a lot of people have said, I feel like it’s pretty similar to body doubling 😊
I haven’t seen any of your other content, but I’m thoroughly enjoying this channel.
I finally got a gym membership this week. It's only been a little while but I already have so much energy.
I'm grateful, but at the same time I hate it took me so long to start. If you're having doubts about its benefits just go for. The people in the gym are so nice :).
I hope I can remain consistent
Absolutely loving the Thailand vibes of your room. The fan, the mat, all of it. It makes me really miss living there. Looking forward to more stuff while you're over there.
Wow, i never knew I needed these types of videos since… well, don’t think i’ve come across anything else like this out here. It’s comforting, the lack of too much over-editing, just… i dont have to listen to the voices in my head? And I don’t feel like someone is trying to shove something down my throat (lmao ronnie, pick your fights, fr, that was a poor choice of words). The way you speak is somewhat familiar to me. And picking a character as a motivation is very relatable as well.
Really cool video! Thanks. It made me kinda crave an outside walk.
Cheers ✨
Thanks Noah. I watched/ listened on my walk this morning and I smiled several times throughout the video!
I use these videos as something on the background while I work out or do chores and they actually help motivate me, so thanks and keep it up!
I just wanna say I love you. I’ve only watched clips of some of your videos since it popped up for the first time on my feed & my medicated ADHD bc of the shortages, but I love you. I feel like I just made a friend, and today a friend like you is needed.
Loving these videos Noah. I hope you decide to vlog some of your Thailand travels as well!!
Hey noah, i opened this video this morning. It inspired me. Even though im feeling pretty down at the moment, I went and swam some laps and it made me feel better. I came back to the couch opened RUclips, and here you are again. What a cool thing to so quickly see my mood change and juxtapose the feeling of leaving and returning to this video.
Thanks
I’m just here for Noah’s thoughts while doing stuff
This inspired me to move around a bit. While kind of half-listening, mostly body doubling, I found an accessible way to do a sit-up for the first time in my life. I like how chill your stuff is and I love that there is no pressure to participate. It's just nice. ❤
just as i'm getting into fitness!!! yeahh!! thank you
Just finished my second workout getting back into things, so this was really good to see. I’ve been unemployed for a bit and have been quite lazy lol
just discoverd u channel i love ur vids ur yapping is especially soothing 2 my soul
Well done Noah! Kepp it up and keep going for a few more months. You´ll feel much stronger and you will feel better in your body.
This prob sounds weird but your voice gives bob ross healthy masculine and I am at ease
i love this channel exactly how it is
I started having panic attacks recently and your videos have really been helping pull me out of it, please don’t stop
I do really enjoy your cleaning videos. They are relatable. I've been using a cleaning journal to help give me a sort of schedule until I can get in with the job I want. It's a great thing, so it is kind of nice to see content that reflects the kind of stuff I am working on in my home.
But bro... If you hadn't mentioned the ASMR stuff about you doing exercise noises, I would have never noticed...But now I cannot unhear it...Not that I am complaining, but this is on you.
your bedroom is minimalistic and cool, your bed looks very unique and I like the red rug a lot
Thabk you noah, your video helped motivate me to reach my goal of running a mile straight for the first time in many years
Amazing video once again ! Your positive self-improvement energy is really needed in a space where it's all far right adjascent. Please keep going !!
Ps I got 4 dips today whereas I couldn't do a single pushup a year ago 😎the gym truly is a saving grace
i was scrolling trying to find something to put in the background while lifting snd yeah this works perfectly, thanks
I started working out early in the morning instead of the usual afternoon sessions I do and I felt a whole lot better the past weeks.
Tbh I will be happy with what ever you end up doing with the videos
Noah time this is good I’ll binge all ur vids now mi luv
Noah, I just want you to know that youve impacted many people’s lives for the better by just sharing your humanness online. Thank you.
i literally JUST decided to do more cardio and began my attempt at day one of a “couch to 5k” program today… I could only finish half of it and it was really demoralizing. Seeing you push through and reading all the comments here for people who are in a similar place is super reassuring to me though!
Work has bled into my lifting time and its definitely fucked my mental up. Everything has kind of gotten off track. Looking forward to getting back in soon
This was a real crystal flute of a video!
You gotta love seeing Noah do squats
Honestly, Ive found that anything more than elbows past your hips (before touching quads) and my hip flexor starts taking over. Glad to see this content. I very much agree with you, I find that exercise helps my overall mental health, both in the moment and overall. Thank you for being a positive figure!
Enjoy your metabolism while you are in your 20s, Noah. You still have a young man's body that is still in great shape, believe it or not. You come from an athletic background, so I think you will do well when you are in your 30s and beyond. I'm in my early 40s, and I'm glad that I've had the ability to stay in a healthy weight range this whole time. With empathy, I know for other folks there are more complicated medical reasons and genetics that makes it difficult for them to feel comfortable in their bodies, but that doesn't make them any less of an amazing person. Much love and compassion to anyone who reads my comment.
This is a great video
It’s noah time baby
I like watching and listening in real time so I know someone else is struggling with me
Depressed person with ocd here - this shit helps so much. I hurt my back deadlifting last week and I miss the hell out of the gym and can’t wait to go back
because of you i did ten jackknifes and several pushups before work today. it has been a long time since i've done that.
the exercise content gets me to do stuff occasionally, I appreciate it anyways it's good vibes man. keep up that goober behavior
Great video 👍
I'm down for the occasional 5x speed and Flintstones sounds
Started working out after my sciatica mostly went away in hopes of helping with my existing back problem (by strengthen the core and other muscles to help with posture and balance). This became a way to procrastinate without feeling guilty about it.
It truly is Noah time
I just woke up. The end of this video feels like a fever dream. I kind of zoned out and then zoned back in and was like wth am I watching.
