Hi Mark! Thanks for all the great content! As someone who has gone from below average to above average in running, I am now looking for my next goal and therefore I would love to see more content about the strength and resistance training that you do. I literally have no idea about where to start. At the moment I am just doing as many press ups as I can.
When you broke your kickr I bought one. You told me to slow down and I could run. You praised the fenix and now I get daily reminders that my sleep is poor and my workouts are a waste of time. Thanks for all.
This channel is single handedly responsible for the purchase of a very expensive road bike, a reasonably priced gym membership, and a few pairs of overpriced running shoes, and I've never felt better! I've started pushing my training further than I ever have, & Hyrox London lands on my birthday this year, looking forward to it! Thank you Mark 💪🏼🔥
Sadly i have done none of the above apart from pushing my training further and Mark does produce awesome content, despite not persuading me to part with any cash ;-)
@@rvatxn me too Carolyn, but in my old age i have become more of an economy buys. Old shoes and old tech are always on discount when the latest greatest are out.
I can not believe we sat through 31.01mins of this video and NOBODY asked a question about Nixon, and you not even acknowledging once the importance he brings to your channel. , remember there is no " I " in TEAM.......🙂
Be keen to see how your VO2 max test comes out and how it compares to the Garmin estimate. I've often wondered how close the VO2 on my Garmin is to my actual VO2. I've read that with the data they have the estimate is actually not at all bad, but a real comparison would be really interesting 👍
I'd love to know how garmin determines when to update VO2 max..... I'm injured and HR hasn't gone over 95 in two weeks yet my V02 (Garmin) hasn't moved.... I'm pretty sure it's not what it was two weeks ago. Independent assessments of the Garmin value claim it's accurate to 5 %, I *think* that was published by Runners World? Not sure how it can be that accurate, given the flakiness of the Garmin measured HR values. Perhaps its +/- 5 % with a decent chest strap? Keen to see what Mark finds
@@MarkLewisfitness I did a Chester Step Test and the VO2Max result was a little bit higher than the Garmin number. VO2Max is only one of many measures - it depends how nerdy you want to get.
I was thinking the same thing about my Apple Watch…How does an actual Vo2 max test compare? Also what was the cost of the test and how long did it take?
Congratulations on 100K subscribers! Your channel is by far my favorite fitness channel on RUclips, just because you approach things differently than other Fitness RUclipsrs. Nobody needs more bench press tutorials ;-)
I was going to sub on Patreon this week, but now you’ll just think it’s so I can look at pictures of Jen. I’ll wait a couple of weeks so you don’t think I’m a perv. Congrats by the way and great content. As someone who also got to the point where my waistline was the worst it was ever to competing in Marathons and enjoying running and cycling at an above average level, to keep active, I enjoy your take on fitness.
Quite late to this, but the end of the "physical achievement" chapter / section is such a lovely refreshing take on motivation / will power. Very easy to egotistically think you're above someone else because your circumstances might be similar but yet you're "stronger willed" and squeeze runs in more often than that someone else. Not sure why I am just trying to paraphrase what you said a lot better, but great take and I'm going to steal that. Thanks
Congratulations and well deserved, Mark! You're obviously doing something right, because you've grown larger and more quickly than plenty of other RUclipsrs in a similar space who I follow. Here's to further growth and greater reach for your refreshing message
As someone who came for the Zwifting but has stayed for the Hyrox videos, I'm really enjoying your content mix. As a lifer cyclist now in his mid-40s, I realise that my fitness and flexibility to date has been very one-dimensional. So I'm starting to get acquainted with weights. Not on first name terms yet but baby steps. Keep smashing out the excellent videos. Really looking forward to Jen's fitness journey.
You are a genuinely funny guy. That's why it works. I think the first video of you I saw was the parkrun dogs one. I don't have a dog, or even particularly like them, but it was entertaining. I watched a few more and was hooked. A great example of where you do well would be the Hyrox videos. That is something I would never normally be interested in, but you made it great entertainment. I would still not attend one, but am happy to chuckle along to your commentary when you are at one.
Love the channel Mark, I hope I’m in the process of my own Mark Lewis fitness transformation as I go from overweight new dad to a regular runner. I’m training for my first 50k ultra in July. I’ve taken a lot of advice from your channel and even more entertainment value. Looking forward to seeing Jenna’s training too, as that will probably be closer to where I’m at.
I love your thoughts on Uni, I work in one, and the majority of our staff come from students who studied for 3 years, got in to debt, and now just do the same job I did since leaving school.
I came to your channel because I was considering getting a Wahoo Kickr Bike and wanted to see one in action. I ended up getting the bike... and a road bike... and love the variety of content here. It' all relevant/interesting to me. Yours is one of only two channel I allow to send me notifications... I always look forward to the next video.
Congratulations on this milestone, I‘m fairly new to this channel, so you are moving towards the 200k. Enjoy your humour, probably because we are similar age. If you ever find yourself in Germany drop in for a session in my gym.
Congratulations on 100k subscribers! I discovered your channel literally last week (the Eliud Kipchoge video) and couldn't thank the universe more. I've learned a lot binging your videos for these several days. Also I quit smoking on Sunday and went for a run yesterday. So you are actually pushing people to be better and changing lives. Keep making great videos, Mark. Thank you! Update: ran my first half marathon on 2nd of October, the time: 2.00.44. Thank you again, Mark!
This video couldn't have come at better timing Mark. It's been a bit since I've posted to my channel and I'm finally getting back to sharing again! Thanks for the inspiration!
I'm one of those people who've stumbled on your videos and I'm glad I have. I'm a cyclist first and foremost, but like you pointed out in the video, have stuck around for the variety. Good luck with the road to 200k 🤙
My youtube is full with fitness and health channels. They are often more informative and science based but none of them is so entertaining. I don't race, I don't do ultra stuff, I think I'm here for the stand up (or sit down) comedy part. Keep up the good job!
Regular viewer and love the channel. Back to what you said about starting watching because of the cycling, this was exactly me but got me thinking of starting running again after 30 years. Then, this led to me thinking of doing my first SUPBIKERUN run which I did message you about. Completed it two weeks ago and stayed with an inflatable for this year. Did 6k sup 40k bike and 10k run an completed it. I thank you for that. The biggest shock was I actually came second! Blown away. Maybe Hyrox next 💪 Cheers for the motivation fella 👍👍
I love the behind the scenes look at how you run your channel! Can I ask what kind of Teleprompter you use? I been thinking about buying one, I’m pretty sure it would save me a lot of editing time.
Cheap one of amazon - they all do the same thing. You stick your ipone on it and it projects the script onto glass in front of the lens. You just need a free app on the phone - and there are loads of those.
I started an obesity programm in November - got down from 130kg 41years to now 80kg and found myself suddenly enjoying hiking, running and spending time in the mountains and nature. Got into your content a few month ago dued to your many topics you cover. From heavy running to nutrition and some gear / shoe things - liked it and subscribed! Many thanks! I am willing / planning to participate in a 23km trail race in Oktober - started training recently and have it set as a milestone / goal. Might be a great thing if I can complete it exactly a year after 130kg :-) best statement to adopt is your 'above average' mindset - not the best possible but achievable *above average*!
I must say I came for the Running and loving your videos on it. It is so motivational. Now I signed up for my first Halfmarathon. But I really stayed when I first saw the binge eating Video. I've been struggeling (coming out of mild anorexia) with this kind of stuff now, because my body is afraid it will endure this extreme hunger again. It really resonated with me and I finally felt like somebody put into words what I was feeling. Keep up the great work and your running Videos!
Congrats on the milestone! I only found your channel a few months ago, love the funny yet straight talking approach from a guy getting after it - keep it up!
Great job on the 100k. Like many commenters, I found this channel when I got into indoor cycling and quickly binged a boat-load of videos. Love the vids, especially the training clips.
You're impacting so many people for a healthier and happier way of living Mark. I never thought I'd run again but Saturday saw a 2hour 12 min half marathon for shits n giggles . This morning back to deadlifts after 2.5 years due to back injury - 150kg Thank you . Oh, and well done and deserved
Been watching since you were a young lad filming yourself playing video games. Still enjoy 100% of the content. Congrats on 100K, look forward to the bright future.
Great video... stumbled across your Kipchoge video (thanks to RUclips Algorithm) and have been watching/listening to your content throughout today. Really enjoying my running at the moment and just completed a half marathon distance yesterday.... first time doing that since breaking my leg a couple of years ago. Also.. always interested to hear RUclips success stories.. Cheers.
Hey Mark, I’ve been watching your videos since lockdown and bought a wahoo kickr since along with a bike. I did my first triathlon (Olympic distance) a month ago and registered for half Ironman in February 2023. I didn’t know you were on Patreon and just signed up. I love your no BS content and find them super inspirational and relatable at the same time as I am similar age as you. Thanks again for your videos. 👍
Keep pushing forward, keep up the great work and continued success, waiting for the podcast and the story's of your subscribers that stand out . Again will done .
Congratulations Mark on reaching 100k , discovered your channel with your how to get up Zwift in an hour back in December 20 I think, thanks to your advice am now only 59 seconds off to the hour mark, been great seeing your progress hopefully will bump into you at some race sometime
Some positive feedback - I’ve started from a not dissimilar position (37, 108kg, 5’10’’). Gym, diet, now 90kg 8 months later, but somewhat directionless and losing focus. Your videos found - just did my first 10k, signed op for another and a half marathon, thinking about a bike event and a marathon, and fully subscribed to the ‘above average’ ethos. Love your work
Mark, congrats on the channel success. Your humor is very funny, and your approach to fitness is down to earth and appreciated in a space that is filled with Uber ego’s.
Congratulations Mark! Your well designed story arc in your videos keeps me watching. When I click your video, I know I'll rarely get bored and bounce. Keep up the great work, you're changing lives with the work you're doing! Ed Philadelphia, PA USA.
Congrats on your success Mark. I’ve been watching you for the last two years since lock down and always thought you’d find success eventually with your down to earth approach to RUclips. Thanks for all the entertainment and useful content you provide! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the rest of the year!
It’s great to see your success Mark. I found you in Jan with the pain cave roasts! Very funny. I am one of those cyclists that got sucked into your general content! Keep it up!
More than happy to support a channel/you that churns out this hybrid content of down to earth, real, encouraging and motivating material with consistent comedy gold threaded throughout. The bike 'dismount' probably won't ever get old....cracking stuff Mark. It's clear you know exactly what you're doing given the channel's growth, and it's VERY well deserved for all the effort you put into training, racing, filming and editing 👍👍
Congrats on that 100k! Very well deserved. I joined the channel with the Kipchoge video and really like it around here. Thank you Mark (and Jen for making this possible 😉)
Congratulations Mark, really pleased you've hit 100k, deserved success for sure. It proves how important a supportive partner is in achieving any goal.. thanks to Jenna for kicking your arse as needed.
It is impressive to go to 100,000 subs so quickly. I think I started watching around 15,000 and my wife enjoys the videos as much as i do. We appreciate the effort that goes into each video--no fat there either. That said, having a wife like Jen who is so supportive and looks so good in a bikini must help in the motivation department! Bravo, Mark!
This is coming from a big guy coming into his early 30's and you are really inspiring me to focus on my fitness journey and maybe even documenting it to.. Thanks Mark, don't change, love the light heartedness of this channel but also how much you push yourself in the challenges you do!! Top work, I started watching just a couple of months ago but watch everything you release now
Great video, have been watching you from the early days and love your no nonsense commentary. This video has also convinced me that being a potential RUclipsr is NOT for me or everyone. I always thought that good quality videos such as yours would require huge effort. I’m glad you love the ‘job’ but equally glad you’ve explained it to me because I wouldn’t. Huge congratulations with the channel 👍
Been close to a year with you now. Finally it clicked, your Hyrox video's did it. Currently 35y ex athletic, fat male.. doing my first Hyrox in October. Thank you for the inspiration!
I admire you doing this! Recently started following you and watching your video’s on a daily basis. I have the problem that I think I can bring something to “the table” as you say it, but don’t feel compfortable enough to do so. When I was a personal trainer I had a lot of trouble taking on clients because I had the feeling I needed to know every piece of scientific information be as strong, fit, big as possible to be worthy to teach any one anything. But in reality the clients I got never did a push up in their life (to give an example) and I could teach them loads of stuff. But I need to work on the feeling to be good enough to present what I know. Going in front of a camera would be the next step.
Live seeing channels I like blow up! 👍🏻 Bought a Garmin and started running again thanks to this channel...I'm not several hundred pounds worse off and my knees hurt... Thanks alot dude. 😂
Another great video Mark! Since I randomly came across your 500 day cycling progression video several months ago, this channel has been appointment viewing for me. I really like your attitude toward health and fitness and willingness to try new things and see what results you can achieve. RUclips fitness/the internet can be so elitist and toxic it can be hard to relate to when viewing or following someone's progress but in your case, you just continue to provide positivity, encouragement, and a great example to aim for.
Thanks to everyone who ever clicked subscribe on here 🙏
Have you ever considered trying indoor climbing? Sort of fits your MO resonably well as it requires good all round fitness/strength/flexibility.
Hi Mark! Thanks for all the great content! As someone who has gone from below average to above average in running, I am now looking for my next goal and therefore I would love to see more content about the strength and resistance training that you do. I literally have no idea about where to start. At the moment I am just doing as many press ups as I can.
My pleasure Mark. You produce awesome content!
How long have you been vegan?

I've started pushing my training further than I ever have, & Hyrox London lands on my birthday this year, looking forward to it! Thank you Mark 💪🏼🔥
+ a Garmin Forerunner and another pair of overpriced running shoes
+ a Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire.....should definitely try and get them as a sponsor 🤣
Sadly i have done none of the above apart from pushing my training further and Mark does produce awesome content, despite not persuading me to part with any cash ;-)
@@rvatxn me too Carolyn, but in my old age i have become more of an economy buys. Old shoes and old tech are always on discount when the latest greatest are out.
What's the overpriced running shoes you bought? Almost all the running shoes I'm interested in cost pretty much the same here $140.

I came for the fitness content. I stay for the witty commentary. Love the mug/editing bit! Also looking forward to Jen’s epic transformation!
Congrats Mark! Been with ya since January or so of this year. Binged the channel and now don’t miss a video! Keep going strong.
Ha, me too! 👍
Only down side of Binging is when you run out!!! Luckily there’s so much good content from mark you can go back and watch some of it again!
Exactly
Ye its good content with no ' empty fillers'👍
Be keen to see how your VO2 max test comes out and how it compares to the Garmin estimate. I've often wondered how close the VO2 on my Garmin is to my actual VO2. I've read that with the data they have the estimate is actually not at all bad, but a real comparison would be really interesting 👍
Garmin VO2 numbers are absolutely worthless. 50% +/- variance in some cases
The most interesting bit for me is how it compares to Garmin.
I'd love to know how garmin determines when to update VO2 max..... I'm injured and HR hasn't gone over 95 in two weeks yet my V02 (Garmin) hasn't moved.... I'm pretty sure it's not what it was two weeks ago. Independent assessments of the Garmin value claim it's accurate to 5 %, I *think* that was published by Runners World?

Well played Mark, you got the skillz to pay the billz
Love this guy. Speaks truth to power, funny and has a brilliant empathetic attitude towards people. Keep up the good work!
Found this channel today, I really like your down to earth way. No prestige, make funny of yourself and so on. Inspiring, keep it up!

Congratulations Mark. It's amazing seeing the genuine positive impact that your content is having on so many people's lives, including my own.
I love your view on luck in life. That's just the way it is, and I couldn't agree more ❤
Oh my gosh the coffee cup jumping cuts just caught me off guard
Thanks for the laugh! And the fitness motivation
Found you at 40k so happy to see you doing what you love now!

Congratulations in the little time you’ve been doing this that’s phenomenal it’s a great channel always love watching the videos in
Congratulations man. Very inspiring. You’ve quickly become one of my favorite RUclipsrs. Motivating, hilarious, and down to Earth. Here’s to 200k! 🍻
Congrats on that 100k! Very well deserved. I joined the channel with the Kipchoge video and really like it around here. Thank you Mark (and Jen for making this possible 😉)
Awesome Mark, well done. Thoroughly enjoy your channel and its the only one I have the bell on for new content.
Thanks for this Mark - Great to see you making a living out of something that you enjoy and also entertain / challenge others.
Congratulations Mark, really pleased you've hit 100k, deserved success for sure. It proves how important a supportive partner is in achieving any goal.. thanks to Jenna for kicking your arse as needed.
It is impressive to go to 100,000 subs so quickly. I think I started watching around 15,000 and my wife enjoys the videos as much as i do. We appreciate the effort that goes into each video--no fat there either. That said, having a wife like Jen who is so supportive and looks so good in a bikini must help in the motivation department! Bravo, Mark!
Well done - have only discovered your channel this month, but have been binge watching lots of your videos.
@Mark Lewis thanks for posting😊you’re doing great 👏💪
This is actually an incredibly informative video
Awesome content as always. Keep up the good work. Here’s to the next 100k and beyond. 💥
This is coming from a big guy coming into his early 30's and you are really inspiring me to focus on my fitness journey and maybe even documenting it to..
Thanks Mark, don't change, love the light heartedness of this channel but also how much you push yourself in the challenges you do!! Top work, I started watching just a couple of months ago but watch everything you release now
Great video, have been watching you from the early days and love your no nonsense commentary. This video has also convinced me that being a potential RUclipsr is NOT for me or everyone. I always thought that good quality videos such as yours would require huge effort. I’m glad you love the ‘job’ but equally glad you’ve explained it to me because I wouldn’t. Huge congratulations with the channel 👍
Love the visual gags man
Been close to a year with you now.
Finally it clicked, your Hyrox video's did it.
Currently 35y ex athletic, fat male.. doing my first Hyrox in October.
Thank you for the inspiration!
Great stuff keep it up Mark
I’ve been there from the very beginning Mark and laughed and smiled many times, thanks for keeping it real, honest and funny.
Really looking forward to the VO2 max test video!! 👍🏼
I really like your stuff Mark. I plan on sticking around.....
I admire you doing this! Recently started following you and watching your video’s on a daily basis. I have the problem that I think I can bring something to “the table” as you say it, but don’t feel compfortable enough to do so. When I was a personal trainer I had a lot of trouble taking on clients because I had the feeling I needed to know every piece of scientific information be as strong, fit, big as possible to be worthy to teach any one anything. But in reality the clients I got never did a push up in their life (to give an example) and I could teach them loads of stuff. But I need to work on the feeling to be good enough to present what I know. Going in front of a camera would be the next step.
Way to go! Onward and upward. My town just got parkrun! I will be part of the family next week.
Just found you the past week and two and subscribed two days ago. Great content.
Live seeing channels I like blow up! 👍🏻
Bought a Garmin and started running again thanks to this channel...I'm not several hundred pounds worse off and my knees hurt... Thanks alot dude. 😂
Another great video Mark! Since I randomly came across your 500 day cycling progression video several months ago, this channel has been appointment viewing for me. I really like your attitude toward health and fitness and willingness to try new things and see what results you can achieve. RUclips fitness/the internet can be so elitist and toxic it can be hard to relate to when viewing or following someone's progress but in your case, you just continue to provide positivity, encouragement, and a great example to aim for.
Yep - it's almost been easy to find my niche as no one else is doing it!
