I am 16 and that’s what I try to do I am naturally skinny but not that and when I say to someone I am trying to be healthy they say I don’t need because I don’t need to lose weight but I just say I am trying to be healthy for myself
I lllllove this, thank you... its so interesting, I can always remember to eat for nutrition, but ask me how many times I forget or give in, when the eating is for weight loss... I think you are a game-changer... thank you thank you.... gosh so simple yet we make it complicated....
One of my all time favorite talks. As a person who has completely changed their body, i thought I would drop tips as well. First of all, before you start exercising, slowly work yourself into an overall healthy eating pattern over the course a month first. No amount of motivation can hardly beat the chemical imbalance the average american diet imposes on us. Get your body the correct nutrition and hydration first, so then when you begin, your body can recover correctly and you wont become sick. Secondly, START SLOW. All physical changes in us, big or small, are adaptations., Your body is not adapted to working out, so you will likely injure yourself or become so sore that for the next two days you so you cant even work out if you push too hard on your initial attempt. Start with a speed walk, and do light resistant weight training. Lastly, KEEP AT IT. Like I said, its adaptation. A person who takes the first two months to adapt to working out will stay working out. You will crave the endorphins, the release of the nervous energy, and the ability to rest easier. You are always worth being healthy and being happy.
Thank You I will definitely be taking these tips. i have tried so many times and all at once and never finish. I get discouraged. But I never thought about it like this.
I was swimming 1.5 miles a day, cut my calories and lost 1 lb over the month. 1lb! No one wants to addess that there are some people that all the exercise and food cutting calories etc. DO NOT work.
“This fitness problem is more about out mental failures than our physical failures.” I needed to hear these words, thank you for adressing this problem!
Totally agree. He gave actual answers. I remember one TedTalk by another gentlemen where at the end of a long video he concluded all of his hot air just to say, "Eat less. Move more." However, this TedTalk informed listeners about what fitness IS and how to get there.
Watched this video in 2014 and thought it must be impossible to work out every single day. -Ramped up from 3 to 7 days a week and have been training every day for a year now. In case there's anyone who feels like I did, it really IS possible and it's way easier to keep it up when you do it every day. Another thing that helped me is creating a workout plan (refreshing every few months) and a workout journal. I log the date, muscle groups, exercises, weight, sets, and reps. This creates structure; I know exactly what I'm doing that day and how much weight to lift. I hope this helps someone. I believe in you!!
great to hear! im sure you're aware of this already, but since I don't know you I feel a duty to make sure you know, that if you are truly burnt out, make sure to take a rest day. again, not trying to patronize you, but I suffered from this early when I started working out. Cheers!
“Exercise is being called the best medicine in America today, outperforming almost every prescribed medication in the country in terms of its overall impact on our health. Everything from colds and flu to cancer is being impacted by exercise but you can’t just pay lip service to the idea; you actually have to do it.” - Ogie Shaw
The points of this talk: 1. WORK OUT everyday in the morning, 20 minutes or less and work against resistance. ›identify WHAT fitness is. 2. MEASURE your fitness is a way of identifying the need is. Take it seriously. 3. REWARD phsyical fitness (the belief that exercise will have a healthy impact for your overall health) For sure, we all know that exercise will prevent us from having obesity, cardiovascular disease, cancer. But one thing I know for sure is that what you put in your mouth is also as important as the amount of exercise you're doing.
@@bwanagoes No, he meant less because at least in the beginning the motivation goes down if you start working out by going for a longer time. Doing it at shorter times but more frequently is the key.Then you work up from there.
There was no advice or information here that hasn't been doled out for the past 50 years. It's not solving the core problem. The core problem is insulin resistance. The answer is a meat only diet (no plants), and drink salt water. That's the answer.
Another great quote I've heard thrown around "Food is fuel, not something you do for enjoyment" find other ways to enrich your life. Dont like eating? That's the point you wont eat as much
Good advise . I was working out every day and then I stopped and now I have to fight the mental battle to get back into the habit. Here's a condrum is it s hard to break a bad habit, but easy to stop a good habit!!!
I lost over 60lbs 15 years ago. I changed what and when I ate. Exercise was not part of my weight loss. I exercise to feel good and strong. 50lbs is not a problem. I do my work out daily on a vibration platform. I enjoy waking up to this every morning.
This is the best Ted Talk I've ever heard. Most are interesting, present a problem, then offer vague solutions or ideas. This actually gives concrete useful information. Very well done.
There’s a great little book on natural healing written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention, called My Physician, Myself. I read it a couple of years ago but lost my copy. I’m going to Amazon right now to order one and be more careful with it. It’s more than worth the read. You might look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to be 102.
I find these Tedx talks so much better than the Ted talks! No cookie cutter speeches, no plodding tone, just great info and in this case, a wonderful sense of humour and great delivery.
Wow. You know something inspires you when you're sitting right in front of the gym dreading to go in and after hearing this Ted Talk sat in my car and made a whole fitness plan.
Jordan Peterson touched on the concept of 'consistent reward', how you reward an activity effectively so you keep doing it. He stated that you don't want the reward to be too small so that it's inconsequential, but not too big so that it's unsustainable and devalues future, smaller rewards. For me, what keeps me going to the gym session after session 6 days a week is having a really good protein shake when I get home. The reward never changes; it's consistent. Seriously the reward is so important because (as Ogie stated) you're brain fights with you, but the reward serve as a negotiation tool to win it over. Hope this helps!
Thankyou my dude, going to look into consistent rewards to get back into fitness. Something that could really work. Nothing too big or small, just something that is rewarding but also easily achievable
I try to get my fitbit reward for doing my hourly steps everyday. I set it to 12 hours. If I miss the reward I get bummed. The problem is that if I miss it early the rest of the hours don't matter. They should have a way to make up for the last hour. It is really the little things. All fitbit does is send off little LED fireworks on my watch.
I’ve watched this many times this year and in previous years. Today I’m trying to sing that song and can hardly breathe for crying!! This video and her words mean so much more to me today as I seek my authentic self ❤❤❤
the scientific facts , the humour , the practical advice... one of the best TED(x) talks i've seen (& i watch 'em a looooot; shoot, i have the TED app on my phone) . he should've been on the official TED stage !
I swear I come back to this once a year...and it's still so impactful. I've fallen off a few times, but I've gotten back on the train quicker and quicker.
Excellent presentation. I am 60 and exercise every day and eat a vegan (WFPB) diet. I am rewarded with low blood pressure, low cholesterol, a resting heart rate of 53, and lots of energy. Feeling great and staying out of doctor’s waiting rooms is my motivation.
The Firm and Jane Fonda...these exercise workouts have seen me through the past 45 of my life, seven days a week and I am still doing them...I still find them fun, challenging, and invigorating. I love how I feel and how I look from these and eating nutritious, delicious food. Life isn't fun if you have pain and suffering from ill health...take care of you if you want to enjoy better health and do all that you want to do in life.
What a great speaker, I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud, let alone multiple times to a TED talk. He's super inspiring. Exercise daily, measure it, reward it. Bullet Journal here I come!
His message is exactly what I learned this past year doing Keto. I have done sooooooo many diets that were never sustainable because I did not enjoy the healthy foods I was asked to eat. I psychologically felt trapped and forced to eat certain foods they say would help me lose and maintain weight. But I would only lose a couple pound. Then when I did Keto with IF, I learned it was not a diet but a lifestyle change mentality that would help me loose weight. Have you ever heard most things in life are 90% mental 10% physical? This is truth! I LOVED every piece of food on Keto and felt amazing, and not once did I feel trapped. For the first time in my life, I lost 28 pound in 4 months and found a sustainable method.
Spent a summer in Slovakia with the ex Fiancé when she coached basketball players, I only saw maybe 2 players who were slightly overweight, the other girls were much healthier than kids of the same age range in the States. I'm currently living in Tenessee. It really is incredible how much of an impact culture, diet, and livelihoods impact our health and our next generations health and fitness.
FINALLY, I heard someone say "Exercise EVERYDAY"‼️ I've believed that DAILY SHORT DURATION exercising is the ONLY way I could stick with it for a long time, but I've only recently put it into practice. I'm so GLAD to hear my thoughts validated - it's so encouraging, and will Inspire me to KNOW that I'm doing the Right Thing and to Keep Exercising Daily, For LIFE🎯‼️
I am currently 19 years old, and about a year ago I had a physical exam with my doctor, I asked her if I should be worried about my weight and her response was "oh you're too young to be worried about your weight", even though that was the most weight ive had all my life and the most unfit
Eva Nowadays the things we need to hear dont get much attention but the things we want to hear gets the most attention. Sad but true. We want our ears tickled and entertained rather than hear the truth that can help set us free
Mr. Shaw, Brilliant, bright, and very engaging. Physical fitness: Define Measure Reward I love how Mr. Shaw suggests, "Exercise every day. Three times per week opens too many options.."
Deborah Choma I met an NFL athlete once that told me, “ if I can miss one day then I can miss two days then I can miss three days and next thing you know my complacency is driving me down. You don’t have to run a marathon every day but every day you need to sweat “
I start everyday with prayer and gratitude. I roll out a mat seven days a week. I do core some stretching and then push ups. They're free. They're waiting every morning. Takes about 10 minutes but it's continuous. Need it more then my coffee which I have shortly after.
This is one of the best Ted Talks I have ever seen. Please write a book. Your insight made sense and normalized the struggles we have. Work out till your tired, then do it again tomorrow. Love it.
I listened to this a year ago and it's changed my life. No more trying to work out 3 days a week or every other day. Every morning, everyday day (except Sunday). Then pull in Atomic Habits, including never miss twice. When you get working out dialed your eating changes, you know you need protein and low to no carbs to see all the hard work in the gym pay off. I've NEVER felt better and I'm 43.
I live in Post Falls and have been doing the program Ogie has for the last 19 years. Because of his simple, short and powerful program I am fit with the body shape I want. Doing what Ogie says WORKS! Thank you Ogie! Tim Ward
Hi Jeff, You have a great opportunity here and I'd encourage you to contact Ogie talk with him. He is a great guy and will help you do some good stuff.
This talk may or may not have changed people,but by God the speaker can motivate! 'you doing excercise is directly helping you stay healthy and active'
Now Present I saw it now for the first time and I am definitely taking it. Already realized the parts about exercise and motivation. There is none and won’t ever be one, so do not ever rely on motivation. For anything really, because motivation is such a flimsy thing. One day you’ll be super motivated and the next not, even though nothing changed in between. Just do it. Like Mel Robbins said in one of her ted talks - “you will never feel like doing it”. She wasn’t talking about exercise specifically, but about changing your life and how a lot of people are just waiting for the motivation to do it. That moment will never come though
It's not entirely accurate or helpful and does not address the core issue of insulin resistance. Fast long and eat only meat (no plants). There's your answer.
loved this, I went to UNC Greensboro and majored in Kinesiology. Our sports psychology class has been promoting all the he says in this! Shoutout to Dr. Drollette!
Wow, what a fun and informative video! This totally makes sense. And exercising every day is way easier than exercising 3 times a week. I've especially found that if I skip more than one day, I'll tend to fall off the exercise band wagon.
It's true. When doing full body 3 days I have too much time to ask whether to workout or not, while with 6 day PPL routines I have to finish legs before I can even consider a break
This is SO TRUE. He’s so so funny too! I struggled for years teaching nutrition and health to thousands of people. I wondered why people didn’t want to change, even though I shared the facts of what happens if you don’t exercise, if you smoke, if you don’t eat well. It’s psychology… you have to be ready to change. Doesn’t matter how many facts you know, if you aren’t ready for change. You make time for what you think it’s most important to you. Start slow. Stay consistent. Best of luck. 🙏🙏🙏
I was sent this video this morning. Watched it on my drive to get some junk food. Instead, I ate a chicken salad and an unsweetened iced tea. Listened to the video a second time on my drive home. Turned video on the TV and took out a note pad to take notes (the teacher in me). Going in for my third viewing today.
this is the only point of his that I strongly disagree with. There's plenty of fun exercises you can do and do them "right". Everything else he said I completely agree with.
@@shadowkingd0m exactly. I LOVE kickboxing and it’s also great exercise. Some people love biking, or swimming, or dancing. There’s plenty of fun exercise out there!
@@shadowkingd0m Same I've been lifting ,doing calisthenics and cardio (walking ,running sometimes swimming) I enjoy it all but especially lifting and calisthenics.
This is one the podcast that ever heard and felt like I’m motivated holly moly listen to the way how he organized his speech word per word. I’m glad that he spoke the truth
This is the best Ted Talk I've ever heard. Most are interesting, present a problem, then offer vague solutions or ideas. This actually gives concrete useful information. Very well done.
THAT WAS AMAZING! Finally someone who offers facts (backed by research) on fitness and how to achieve a healthier body. Everyone needs to see this, it's so empowering. He is not vague like some of the other videos I've seen. Thank you so much.
I have been doing crossfit class for 6 years or so. Obviously it's fun although there is a mentality to learn in liking some pain. I think getting into a physical exercise class with community and support is key.
TheDtfamu89 I find that if I tell my brain I will only have to workout at the gym for 20 Mins I’m more likely to go and stay longer like for 1 hr lol it works
Watched this video in 2014 and thought it must be impossible to work out every single day. -Ramped up from 3 to 7 days a week and have been training every day for a year now. In case there's anyone who feels like I did, it really IS possible and it's way easier to keep it up when you do it every day
Negotiating was hilarious but so true!!!! I have to talk to myself just to keep it going at times and he is right do exercise everyday....just like you eat everyday.
ah another video that actually taught me something a lot of TEDxTALKS videos are normally just a bunch of people blabbing about rubbish and not educating at all but then there are people like Ogie Shaw who actually teach you something .
Outstanding! This might be the best talk I have ever heard and I have been looking and listening and studying for 40 years! I wrote it all down. I am implementing it NOW! Thank you!!!!
One of the best TED talks if not the best on physical fitness I have ever watched simple basic and straight to the point. He used the KISS principle very well. Definitely sending this to my clients.
"Define. Measure. Reward." What a fantastic TT. Inspiring and very funny. I loved the quote that "For most "people" in America, exercise is running a bath, pulling the plug and trying to fight the current" (I think he said my wife, but I'll use "people") Thank you Ogie Shaw.
I have to say this is one of the BEST talks I've ever heard about physical fitness. My God, I am looking forward to meeting this gentleman soon and getting as much knowledge from him as I can. I have been living by the "exercise for 20 minutes a day or less" principle for the past year when I do workout and it's helped me to stay more consistent than I've ever been. Bringing up the "time" and "motivation" issues were gold and I also love how he identified that physical fitness does not only affect physical health, but mental health. EXCELLENT!
i beg to disagree on one point. the rowing machine works core, upper, lower body, is cardio, improves endurance. its the closest thing to being the perfect form of exercise. it's the least utilized piece of equipment in gyms. why? it's hard work.
Agree 100%. It transfers well to other sports as well, unlike cycling for example. Did a HIIT rowing session yesterday after a period away from the gym and DOMS is starting to creep up. Feels good.
I am not that into cardio but even I love this one. 30 mins goes by like a snap. It's one of my favourites. Plus they are rarely occupied at my gym. Bonus.
the rowing machine is limited in the simple fact that you are sitting during the exercise. Recent studies are discouraging it for people who work in offices etc and have been sitting all day
I love the rowing machine and if i could afford one in my home i would do it every day. I do my exercise bike everyday though. It's only 5 miles but that's more than a lot of people my size can do. And i am on day 220 today!!!
“Eat for nutrition, never eat for weight loss.”
Those words are resounding.
Absolutely genius wording🙏
I am 16 and that’s what I try to do I am naturally skinny but not that and when I say to someone I am trying to be healthy they say I don’t need because I don’t need to lose weight but I just say I am trying to be healthy for myself
I lllllove this, thank you... its so interesting, I can always remember to eat for nutrition, but ask me how many times I forget or give in, when the eating is for weight loss... I think you are a game-changer... thank you thank you.... gosh so simple yet we make it complicated....
I feel like if you eat for nutrition weight loss will follow.
@@Greenbearls Yes, because you will be eating mostly fruits and veggies.
"never make a change in your diet, that you don't want to make permanent." great line and so true.
YES! This is where people go wrong with "diets." They are ultimately temporary.
He's right, but left out the important part: make the change and make it permanent.
He doesn't pull any punches!
I agree! That was a great point.
But what if you want to change nothing? You should change it first
Yesterday marked 365 days straight thank you so much Ogie Shaw your words have helped me change my life! Down 49 lbs and 29 inches!
Great job Tammy!
You deserve a huge congratulations! Stay at it 😀
We'll, I'm up 8 inches...lol hahaha..!!
Fantastic!!!!
Nice job! I went from 240 to 165lbs with about 20 to go. Keep it up! 🤸🏾♀️🤸🏾♀️
Go Tammy! How are you a year on?
One of my all time favorite talks. As a person who has completely changed their body, i thought I would drop tips as well.
First of all, before you start exercising, slowly work yourself into an overall healthy eating pattern over the course a month first. No amount of motivation can hardly beat the chemical imbalance the average american diet imposes on us. Get your body the correct nutrition and hydration first, so then when you begin, your body can recover correctly and you wont become sick.
Secondly, START SLOW. All physical changes in us, big or small, are adaptations., Your body is not adapted to working out, so you will likely injure yourself or become so sore that for the next two days you so you cant even work out if you push too hard on your initial attempt. Start with a speed walk, and do light resistant weight training.
Lastly, KEEP AT IT. Like I said, its adaptation. A person who takes the first two months to adapt to working out will stay working out. You will crave the endorphins, the release of the nervous energy, and the ability to rest easier. You are always worth being healthy and being happy.
I've maintained a 50 pound weight loss for several years now. I cosign this.
Thank You I will definitely be taking these tips. i have tried so many times and all at once and never finish. I get discouraged. But I never thought about it like this.
Thanks I read this while riding a stationary bike. I need your encouragement guys.
Thanks man. Appreciate it
@@dutchessdioji9368 - You can DO this!
Sharing "keep it up" energy, from Michigan!
Even 20 minutes a day, as long as you're consistent, it'll make a great impact. Great message
I was swimming 1.5 miles a day, cut my calories and lost 1 lb over the month. 1lb! No one wants to addess that there are some people that all the exercise and food cutting calories etc. DO NOT work.
Yes! Even 10 min everyday of HIIT exercise can make a difference! Start now, and stick with it, your future self will thank you!
What about 10 minutes of regular exercise per day
Was it twenty minutes a day and then do resistance training for ever how long? Because stretching on it's own can take ten minutes at least.
“This fitness problem is more about out mental failures than our physical failures.”
I needed to hear these words, thank you for adressing this problem!
The entire world needs to REHEAR this. Shocking that Oregon-seems like an outdoorsy state-has high obesity rates. It’s al shocking!
This is better than 99% of the TED talks out there. Great message, great presentation.
Wasn't it. This man is a genius.

Watching 9 years later and Ogie Shaw's talk is as useful and relevant as ever. Remarkable!
I usually zone out after a couple of minutes on these Ted talks, but this guy is such a good speaker. Entertaining too
Awesome guy!
Wow I thought he was a great speaker too. He has very fascinating info exactly what I need now.
I fell asleep on the one I was watching before this and I woke up half way this video and now I can’t sleep hahaha it’s so insightful.
Yeah most of them are boring

Do you think he meant to say to “work out 20 minutes or more”? “20 minutes or less” sounds contrary to his whole speech.
@@bwanagoes No, he meant less because at least in the beginning the motivation goes down if you start working out by going for a longer time. Doing it at shorter times but more frequently is the key.Then you work up from there.

There was no advice or information here that hasn't been doled out for the past 50 years. It's not solving the core problem. The core problem is insulin resistance. The answer is a meat only diet (no plants), and drink salt water. That's the answer.

This is one of the best talks I've ever watched. Please Mr. Shaw, write that book!

"Dont ever diet another day in your life, eat for nutrition"
Another great quote I've heard thrown around "Food is fuel, not something you do for enjoyment" find other ways to enrich your life. Dont like eating? That's the point you wont eat as much
EXACTLY
Good advise . I was working out every day and then I stopped and now I have to fight the mental battle to get back into the habit. Here's a condrum is it s hard to break a bad habit, but easy to stop a good habit!!!
That’s awful advice. Of course you should enjoy eating. Moderation bro
Its kind of asinine quote being that everyone is on a "diet" A diet is just what you eat
I lost over 60lbs 15 years ago. I changed what and when I ate. Exercise was not part of my weight loss. I exercise to feel good and strong. 50lbs is not a problem. I do my work out daily on a vibration platform. I enjoy waking up to this every morning.

I'll take consistency over motivation, and my consistency will be 7 days a week for at least 20 minutes against resistance! Thank you Mr. Shaw!!
There’s a great little book on natural healing written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention, called My Physician, Myself.

What a great speaker, I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud, let alone multiple times to a TED talk. He's super inspiring. Exercise daily, measure it, reward it. Bullet Journal here I come!
His message is exactly what I learned this past year doing Keto. I have done sooooooo many diets that were never sustainable because I did not enjoy the healthy foods I was asked to eat. I psychologically felt trapped and forced to eat certain foods they say would help me lose and maintain weight. But I would only lose a couple pound. Then when I did Keto with IF, I learned it was not a diet but a lifestyle change mentality that would help me loose weight. Have you ever heard most things in life are 90% mental 10% physical? This is truth! I LOVED every piece of food on Keto and felt amazing, and not once did I feel trapped. For the first time in my life, I lost 28 pound in 4 months and found a sustainable method.
Spent a summer in Slovakia with the ex Fiancé when she coached basketball players, I only saw maybe 2 players who were slightly overweight, the other girls were much healthier than kids of the same age range in the States. I'm currently living in Tenessee. It really is incredible how much of an impact culture, diet, and livelihoods impact our health and our next generations health and fitness.
FINALLY, I heard someone say
"Exercise EVERYDAY"‼️
I've believed that
DAILY SHORT DURATION
exercising is the ONLY way I could stick with it for a long time,
but I've only recently put it into practice.
I'm so GLAD to hear my thoughts validated - it's so encouraging,
and will Inspire me to
KNOW that I'm doing the Right Thing
and to Keep Exercising Daily,
For LIFE🎯‼️
Intense exercise can be fun. I’ve lost over 75 lbs with joyful movement and better nutrition.
what did you do? I have been working out for a couple months now and I'm just bored
Congratulations! 75lbs is a lot, good for you for making it happen
The first hurdle that we need is self-love... so many people think they are not worth doing any of these things for!
I am currently 19 years old, and about a year ago I had a physical exam with my doctor, I asked her if I should be worried about my weight and her response was "oh you're too young to be worried about your weight", even though that was the most weight ive had all my life and the most unfit
Listen to your instincts.
Excellent talk, how on earth is the auditorium not packed for this man???
Eva Nowadays the things we need to hear dont get much attention but the things we want to hear gets the most attention. Sad but true. We want our ears tickled and entertained rather than hear the truth that can help set us free
I was thinking the same thing. Thankfully we can see and share it online.
Eva took too much effort to get there???
Talking Sense, nowadays, is Inversely Proportional to the seating capacity of an Auditorium!
@@carolynbrown3379 lol, shameful facts
"Can I skip today and double up tomorrow?" This guy is too good.
Mr. Shaw,
Brilliant, bright, and very engaging.
Physical fitness:
Define
Measure
Reward
I love how Mr. Shaw suggests, "Exercise every day. Three times per week opens too many options.."

I met an NFL athlete once that told me, “ if I can miss one day then I can miss two days then I can miss three days and next thing you know my complacency is driving me down. You don’t have to run a marathon every day but every day you need to sweat “
I start everyday with prayer and gratitude. I roll out a mat seven days a week. I do core some stretching and then push ups. They're free. They're waiting every morning. Takes about 10 minutes but it's continuous. Need it more then my coffee which I have shortly after.
This is one of the best Ted Talks I have ever seen. Please write a book. Your insight made sense and normalized the struggles we have. Work out till your tired, then do it again tomorrow. Love it.
I listened to this a year ago and it's changed my life. No more trying to work out 3 days a week or every other day. Every morning, everyday day (except Sunday). Then pull in Atomic Habits, including never miss twice.
When you get working out dialed your eating changes, you know you need protein and low to no carbs to see all the hard work in the gym pay off. I've NEVER felt better and I'm 43.
I live in Post Falls and have been doing the program Ogie has for the last 19 years. Because of his simple, short and powerful program I am fit with the body shape I want. Doing what Ogie says WORKS! Thank you Ogie! Tim Ward
Coach Tim Ward, Hi Tim,Can I do his program with his equipment. And what excersize can. replicate his moves. Perhaps a resistance band? Thanks
Hi Jeff, You have a great opportunity here and I'd encourage you to contact Ogie talk with him. He is a great guy and will help you do some good stuff.
He spoke truth. The brain goes into fight or flight when you think to change the habit of being sedentary. Great talk!
This was posted four years ago. I wonder how many people saw it then, took his advice, and are healthier today?
This talk may or may not have changed people,but by God the speaker can motivate! 'you doing excercise is directly helping you stay healthy and active'
Now Present I saw it now for the first time and I am definitely taking it. Already realized the parts about exercise and motivation. There is none and won’t ever be one, so do not ever rely on motivation. For anything really, because motivation is such a flimsy thing. One day you’ll be super motivated and the next not, even though nothing changed in between. Just do it. Like Mel Robbins said in one of her ted talks - “you will never feel like doing it”. She wasn’t talking about exercise specifically, but about changing your life and how a lot of people are just waiting for the motivation to do it. That moment will never come though
@@LinneAzalea You're right. I heard Mel speak in person about the 5 Second Rule.
I like the way you think
It's not entirely accurate or helpful and does not address the core issue of insulin resistance. Fast long and eat only meat (no plants). There's your answer.
I’m gonna come back to this video every so often to keep his words fresh in my mind. amazing stuff.
I love this and his delivery is great! I won the mental battle and love working out ..now my problem is controlling my gullet
loved this, I went to UNC Greensboro and majored in Kinesiology. Our sports psychology class has been promoting all the he says in this! Shoutout to Dr. Drollette!
Wow, what a fun and informative video! This totally makes sense. And exercising every day is way easier than exercising 3 times a week. I've especially found that if I skip more than one day, I'll tend to fall off the exercise band wagon.

Sirius yes so true my rule is 1 day off only Sundays I allow myself to skip workout but I’m back on track on Monday again
It's true. When doing full body 3 days I have too much time to ask whether to workout or not, while with 6 day PPL routines I have to finish legs before I can even consider a break
I need repition. Routine
This guy is great and deserves to be more popular.
3 simple measurements that we can all work on and maintain.
This is SO TRUE. He’s so so funny too! I struggled for years teaching nutrition and health to thousands of people. I wondered why people didn’t want to change, even though I shared the facts of what happens if you don’t exercise, if you smoke, if you don’t eat well. It’s psychology… you have to be ready to change. Doesn’t matter how many facts you know, if you aren’t ready for change. You make time for what you think it’s most important to you. Start slow. Stay consistent. Best of luck. 🙏🙏🙏
I was sent this video this morning. Watched it on my drive to get some junk food. Instead, I ate a chicken salad and an unsweetened iced tea. Listened to the video a second time on my drive home. Turned video on the TV and took out a note pad to take notes (the teacher in me). Going in for my third viewing today.
"If it's fun, you're not doing it right". So true
this is the only point of his that I strongly disagree with. There's plenty of fun exercises you can do and do them "right". Everything else he said I completely agree with.
Check out the energy at your local 'heated yoga' gym. There is something happening there, maybe not for everyone.
@@shadowkingd0m exactly
@@shadowkingd0m exactly. I LOVE kickboxing and it’s also great exercise. Some people love biking, or swimming, or dancing. There’s plenty of fun exercise out there!
@@shadowkingd0m Same I've been lifting ,doing calisthenics and cardio (walking ,running sometimes swimming) I enjoy it all but especially lifting and calisthenics.
This is one the podcast that ever heard and felt like I’m motivated holly moly listen to the way how he organized his speech word per word.
I’m glad that he spoke the truth
Found this scrolling on RUclips... glad I did!!
Maz Dela Cerna sama here
I love this guy; he had a great message, and delivered it with humor
Every time I start slacking off on my exercise, all I have to do is watch this video!
Ogie Shaw is from Raleigh, NC. Such an amazing speech. I'm from Raleigh as well.
This is the best Ted Talk I've ever heard. Most are interesting, present a problem, then offer vague solutions or ideas. This actually gives concrete useful information. Very well done.
THAT WAS AMAZING! Finally someone who offers facts (backed by research) on fitness and how to achieve a healthier body. Everyone needs to see this, it's so empowering. He is not vague like some of the other videos I've seen. Thank you so much.
Mr. Ogie Shaw, Sir, your talk was truly awesome. Thank you.
This is the most informative presentation I've seen on motivation and fitness. I will start today with 20 minutes.
Tanisha Banks how's it been? still going strong
How are you doing now? I hope you’ve been able to continue
Hows your fitness journey going
Extraordinaire! The best fitness speech in any TED! This is a real motivation. Put me in motion immediately
I trust a guy who is in great shape himself. My doctor is in terrible shape.
I’m lost for words at the simplicity and logic, honesty, the warmth and humour. Thank you. 🙏👏🌟❤️
I have been doing crossfit class for 6 years or so. Obviously it's fun although there is a mentality to learn in liking some pain. I think getting into a physical exercise class with community and support is key.
Exercise is key. When i started swimming my arthritis improved! 🏊
20 minutes a day is doable.
but too less , warm up + streching = 20 mins , where is the exercise?
Very doable, especially if you find an activity you enjoy. Mine is biking but he's got me thinking about adding in resistance.
I do a hour in pool. I use the weights
TheDtfamu89 I find that if I tell my brain I will only have to workout at the gym for 20 Mins I’m more likely to go and stay longer like for 1 hr lol it works
I tell myself that I only have to do 10 minutes then I do 90 I have managed it every time for 6 months and it’s worth it
I was in the military for a little over four years. I can promise another few years would not have made me want to do more exercises.
Watched this video in 2014 and thought it must be impossible to work out every single day. -Ramped up from 3 to 7 days a week and have been training every day for a year now. In case there's anyone who feels like I did, it really IS possible and it's way easier to keep it up when you do it every day
Still one of my favorites. I love his presentation style too.
Honestly, I think this guy gave the best fitness related advice I've heard in a very long time. He's very understanding and realistic.
"Folks, if you're negotiating about whether or not to work out, it's over."
... awesome, guess I'm screwed then. Great TED talk!
Negotiating was hilarious but so true!!!! I have to talk to myself just to keep it going at times and he is right do exercise everyday....just like you eat everyday.
This is definitely one of the best TedTalks. Dear Mr. Shaw, write that book and I'll be sure to buy it.
9 year old video and still relevant helping people ( and funny ). 👍👍👍👍👍
ah another video that actually taught me something a lot of TEDxTALKS videos are normally just a bunch of people blabbing about rubbish and not educating at all but then there are people like Ogie Shaw who actually teach you something .
MeldThe Steel
Try 'Best kindergarten in the world'
The funny thing is the TED talk video I watched before this was about hoarding and clutter; it literally was about rubbish!
People have such diverse issues, this idea works much better with human nature.
5 years later n he’s still accurate AF ! 🙌🏽 he made me go grab my foam roller 😂
This is the most important TED talk.
Outstanding! This might be the best talk I have ever heard and I have been looking and listening and studying for 40 years! I wrote it all down. I am implementing it NOW! Thank you!!!!
One of the best talks on fitness I've ever heard and given by a man who knows exactly what he intends to say and then says it, Thank you so much,.
You may be the smartest man I ever listened to...Thank you for all your efforts in this life to help others.
I can't do just 20min a day. My struggle is waking up to go to the gym but once i'm there, I'm a beast.
This guy makes way too much sense! Keep it simple! Outstanding talk!
This man is the best speaker and motivator.Great speech I’ll buy the book.
One of the best TED talks if not the best on physical fitness I have ever watched simple basic and straight to the point. He used the KISS principle very well. Definitely sending this to my clients.
The best Ted-talk about fitness I have ever watched for my entire life
I would love this guy cover the nutrition side of his thoughts that he had to cut from this talk.
"Define. Measure. Reward." What a fantastic TT. Inspiring and very funny. I loved the quote that "For most "people" in America, exercise is running a bath, pulling the plug and trying to fight the current" (I think he said my wife, but I'll use "people") Thank you Ogie Shaw.
6 times a week,
20, 40 or 60minutes session
Twice a week 2 sessions a day
Be creative and play
I have to say this is one of the BEST talks I've ever heard about physical fitness. My God, I am looking forward to meeting this gentleman soon and getting as much knowledge from him as I can. I have been living by the "exercise for 20 minutes a day or less" principle for the past year when I do workout and it's helped me to stay more consistent than I've ever been. Bringing up the "time" and "motivation" issues were gold and I also love how he identified that physical fitness does not only affect physical health, but mental health. EXCELLENT!
A TOP talk! Most informative as well as superbly structured, confident and engaging with high wit content. An expert with real clout in presentation!
He told ZERO lies 😕
I need all this help🙋🏽♀️🏋🏽♀️💪🏽🏃🏽♀️
i beg to disagree on one point. the rowing machine works core, upper, lower body, is cardio, improves endurance. its the closest thing to being the perfect form of exercise. it's the least utilized piece of equipment in gyms. why? it's hard work.
Agree 100%. It transfers well to other sports as well, unlike cycling for example. Did a HIIT rowing session yesterday after a period away from the gym and DOMS is starting to creep up. Feels good.
I am not that into cardio but even I love this one. 30 mins goes by like a snap. It's one of my favourites. Plus they are rarely occupied at my gym. Bonus.
the rowing machine is limited in the simple fact that you are sitting during the exercise. Recent studies are discouraging it for people who work in offices etc and have been sitting all day
TRX
I love the rowing machine and if i could afford one in my home i would do it every day.
I do my exercise bike everyday though. It's only 5 miles but that's more than a lot of people my size can do. And i am on day 220 today!!!
The way he presents it’s so smooth. Sly comedy and a story
One of the best talks on personal fitness we've ever heard. We are implementing some of these principals church-wide!
