I’ve been doing the same style of hybrid training for the last 8 months and can honestly say I feel the best I ever have. Struggle with putting on a great deal of muscle mass due to being a final year uni student and good calories are hard to come by with the cost of living but certainly have some great definition. Another great video love this!
Glad to hear you’re enjoying your training so much. I appreciate can be hard to fuel right especially on a student budget, my student diet was hugely different to my current one 🤦🏻 tinned beans/ lentils are a cheap option and good sources of protein and fibre although unfortunately nuts and fresh fruit/berries can be quite expensive
Great video, I like your style of content and not too long! In essence results don’t happen unless you make it a priority.. I do find that a busy gym is a disincentive to going.. so glad it’s not just me!
Love this approach! As someone struggling with proper nutrition and fueling for workouts and during the day, due to an ED, it's really inspiring and motivating to see something like this. 🙏 This is the kind of approach I really strive for 😊🙌
Didn’t really see any indication of leg workouts except for mentioning squats and deadlifts. It’s so important to have balance in resistance exercise, if only because of the benefits of activating the large leg muscles. That then leads to greater insulin sensitivity, bone density, and an increase in beneficial enzymes which help with cholesterol transfer and other processes. Whilst taxing in the legs non-resistance exercise like running doesn’t have their same effects. Good luck with your ongoing hybrid training and future videos 😊
If interested it’s the same research done on the health benefits of why standing and moving around in your workday is so much better for you than long periods of sitting. A quick google will bring up the peer reviewed research. Yes I understand he is a doctor, though they don’t get specific training on these sorts of topics usually 😊
For sourdough starter, if you have a proofing setting on your oven that helps. Otherwise anyway to methods to increase temp obviously helps, such as using 32-40 degree water, putting starter near radiator etc
I really enjoyed this video. I'm a 60 y/o woman and I like to cycle on my road bike and workout with weights. Right now the weather in Canada is still yucky so indoor bike trainer is it! I have been able to keep it at one workout per day for the most part but once Spring is here and I'm cycling almost every day, I will need to stack the days for sure. I will probably do the weights in the early morning and then the riding after work on those days and save the longer 100km rides for my off work day which is Wednesday and the weekends. At my age I find that I do need a bit more recovery time so on those days I just do walking. I save those rest days for the days I have to physically go into the office for me it's Monday and Friday. I find I'm really knackered after driving and walking and working a long day. Your meals looked amazing!!!!
Oven with light on if the best place to have a consistent warm spot for sourdough making in the cold UK winter. Make sure starter is super strong (doubles in size) before using.
For sourdough, I read Tartine Book No. 3 and obsessed over the process for a few months. It can be complicated, but it can also be simple (once you get in the habit). Use the freshest flour you have access to, feed the starter daily, and be patient! Once you get the ratios and timelines down, the technique comes along and you'll be making your favorite bread ever soon.
Thanks for the advice! Will definitely give it a look, it seems like a really artisan process and am hoping if I keep plugging I’ll get a ‘eureka’ moment where it all clicks 😂
Hi Andrew! I've been following you for some time now and I really love your videos!! Some questions that I'd like your perspective on: 1. I do a 30 minute zone 2 run post strength training sessions (70 - 80 minutes). Any particular disadvantages to this approach? I try and fuel well (prior to the workout) to ensure I have the energy for it. 2. Also, how do you plan a running week? I currently get 25/30 miles of running in a week right now, but 80% of it is zone 2 runs currently. I want to get faster and I'd like to understand your approach. Thank you!
Excellent stuff, the ship has sailed for me with regards to being a hybrid person who trains. I'm 43, and tried a lot LOL. Just curious are you vegetarian?
Never too late to start ;) have you watched Mark Lewis? He’s just turned 50 and regularly runs/cycles/lifts - got a very entertaining channel too! And no I’m not vegetarian but eat largely plant-based on weekdays for variety of reasons 👍🏼
@@AndrewRussellFitness mark Lewis is fantastic. Really smart and has a great outlook on life. He is on TRT though and this is his full time occupation. But I totally get your point. I can and should do more. Great content. Keep going.
For sure it helps - I also don’t have kids which makes things easier… My point was that I fit sessions where and when I can and hopefully giving some useful tips for how to program workouts on those days 👍🏼
Not sure to be honest mate as don’t count or weigh food. Last time I counted for purposes of a video my average intake was more like 100-120g/day. Large portion sizes with variety of different whole grains, lots of dairy then nuts/seeds/lentils - maybe will include a count for a future video. Not really my thing to count macros but appreciate would improve validity of my advice for people thinking of adopting a more whole food/plant based diet 👍🏼
@@AndrewRussellFitness yes I was curious around this as well - looks like a great diet but concerned as I've gone vegetarian and finding it harder to hit protein of 100g+.
Is it true that when you were in medical school you were known as being that guy who had an absolute obsession with diseases and conditions of the rectum and anus? Like, someone would come in with breathlessness upon exertion and chest pain, and you would immediately jump in and go, "IT'S GOT TO BE HAEMORRHOIDS"? Anyway, regardless, great video!
train twice a day but with clothes on look like you train 0 times in your life. maybe cut down on the training and eat more and allow for more recovery

Solid. Humble guy with lots of positive energy. Best of luck Bro 🤞
Thanks for the support man 👍🏼
Followed as soon as I found out that you’re also a doctor. As a doctor I’m so busy but try my beat to stay fit. This is motivating

Relatable home gym set up right there! Keep it up.
I really enjoyed this, please make more lifestyle/fitness content! Subbed!
Thanks for the support, will do! 👊🏼
Really enjoy your content mate, I'm 26, currently training for a marathon as well as trying to build muscle so find your videos super helpful :)
Thanks for the support man - we sound like the same person 😂

Great video, I've recently started training both as I want to maintain as much muscle as possible but what I enjoy most is running. Keep it up mate 👍
Love it, running is rapidly becoming my favourite too! Thanks for the support 👍🏼

That salad actually looked like it slapped tbf
It would be really cool to see how you cook your dinners because that looked delicious bruv
Will see what I can do 👍🏼

I was also going to suggest Tartine haha

Stay away from gluten
Great video brother!
Another Niche user :) love my coffee and great video!
I use my oven light with slightly door open to make it warm place for sourdough

Well i guess not having a typical 9-5 job helps you train twice a day.
I train twice and have a typical 8-5 job. It's only 1.5 hrs out of my day.
For sure it helps - I also don’t have kids which makes things easier… My point was that I fit sessions where and when I can and hopefully giving some useful tips for how to program workouts on those days 👍🏼
Unfortunately some of us are not as disciplined
@@hellen2405how do you schedule your training 👀
Hi Andrew, I love your content, what camera do use?
Thanks mate, I use the Sony A7c with a couple of different Tanron lenses. Managed to get them all second hand 👍🏼
@@AndrewRussellFitness thanks 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Great vid thanks-what beans do you use?
Thanks for the comment! Mixture of black beans, kidney beans, cannellini, haricot - anything that comes in a tin 😂
@@AndrewRussellFitness Thanks mate-I meant coffee beans😂
@@GHOLT81 hahaha - I forgot what was even in the video man 🤦🏻 I use ‘Rave’ coffee when I’m not drinking kidney bean juice from the tin 😂👍🏼
@@AndrewRussellFitness 😂Thanks.
I don’t mean this trying to hate but was this not like only 70 grams protein?

Dude, rinse your blueberries (all fruits) first 😅
Haha I normally do I promise 😂😂 filming myself put me all out of whack

hahaha love this ‘0 times in your life’ ffs 🤦🏻😂

Never!
