Although you are not a fitness influencer, I think you should make fitness videos every so often. It’s refreshing to see someone who just wants to be fit and healthy & genuine about it. It’s hard to be able to tell the difference between someone who is genuine, and someone who is fake & trying to make money off of it.
@@BryanAdamCastillo sir, you are really inspiring, being in better shape is so important not to impress someone but it allows a person to unlock so much of the abilities ( like mobility, endurance and strength) that he has, sir can I ask; could you please make a workout routine video?
Let me help without the Apple watch. Times your body weight by 14 or 15 of ur Activity level of the day so let's say u work at in office that a level 14 meaning low activity level. For example I'm 150×14= 2100 That's my maintenance calories know -500 to lose weight Which? Leaves. Me with? 1600 calories to lose weight
@@basicvid3494 in this calories in calories out scale, does this take into account the calories going out to waste? There has to be a discrepancy there because waste is food that is not usable, it's discarded right?
Bryan I just found your content just last week and the most striking thing I’ve seen is that you are SUPER relatable. This is something that anyone can do with a certain level of commitment. Please keep this kind of content coming. Thanks! ✌🏾
I was 275 pounds ... I implemented a 23/1 intermittent fasting diet (omad) with a 30 min weight lifting routine and a mile walk a day which became a mile jog eventually. I've since lost 65 pounds in a yr. Cut out the sugary treats and reduce carb intake to a minimum. Once getting to a target weight goal, in order to keep your work in check, be balanced in your eating habits and stick more to whole foods rather than processed.
I recently found your channel. I appreciate your real life perspective on getting healthy. So many just tell you to pound chicken and veggies and give up enjoying life. I seen so many of my friends take that path and their personalities are almost robotic. They don't seem to enjoy life anymore. They just stay home, eat chicken and broccoli and occasionally do something. They became boring. You seem well-rounded and practical. Thanks again.
Second video what I watching from you. I'm 46yo ex natural bodybuilder. I do very similar like your plan. Started with 16/8 fastingbut changed to one meal a day. One meal weekdays, on the weekends eat twice a day in 8 hours window. The best thing what I ever did. I can eat how you said anything. Didn't lost muscle mass and able to keep a healthy low fat shape. Not super ripped but good looking.
Lost around 55kg was super overweight, now I'm 90kg and cannot get lower than this. I workout Monday, Wednesday and Friday with weights, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday cardio, usually assault bike or jogging. Steps im at around 18,000 a day since during workouts I never rest and continue to walk between one set and another. I'm really confused, made such great progress and I work very very hard, but cannot get to 10% definitely, I think am around 22% and best I was maybe was at 20%. I feel discouraged and want to leave everything since this is really mentally putting a huge stress and I cannot take it anymore. Great progress I know was waist 48 now I'm waist 33, but still far away from my dream physique I need help. Great inspiration BTW and you really made an amazing progress.
bro you're killing it! your in better shape now than 50% of adults and that is saying something, now I know nothing about nutrition/fitness but I might say your body need a shock so you can start loosing weight again, maybe do intermitent fasting, a 48 hour fast then a 36
Thanks! I am working hard on getting healthier. The food has been very difficult to meet my goals. Three meals and snacks is just a no go!! And here is a very big realization-eating clean and eating things that are “good for your health”. They are still calories no matter how “clean” they are or how good for your body they are. I am still maneuvering my diet. I have let go of walnuts and oats (very good for you but lots of energy in them). I am getting better at it. This video was actually pretty helpful. The deficit during the week and easing up on the weekends, helped me figure that part out. It was my goal to have a day where I can eat some of my favorite things, but I couldn’t make it happen But a larger deficit Monday through Friday definitely will make that happen Congratulations on your successes. Thank you.
Hey Bryan, love the video and valuable information. Maybe some things you should think about: 1. I agree that tracking calories with the Apple Watch is easy, but keep in mind that it is not 100% accurate. The Watch tends to be a little bit too generous with the burned calories, but nonetheless a great way to start tracking them. 2. Intermittent fasting: Great for losing weight and the positive effects you mentioned. But do not forget about muscle protein synthesis. If you do your workout in the morning fasted, you throw oppurtunities away for building muscle. However, if you can live with that and you feel amazing doing it, do your fasting. It is your journey, your life. 🙂 Have a nice day, buddy 🙂
hey man! thanks so much for the feedback! 1. Yes, fully aware that the Apple Watch and pretty much any fitness tracker won’t be 100% accurate BUT, imo, this is the most accurate thing i’ve found! 2. There is anecdotal research out there to suggest that protein timing isn’t quite as important as one might think. ultimately, hitting the 1g protein/pound of body weight is the and spreading this out over multiple meals (as anyone would naturally do) are the main aspects for muscle protein synthesis! find what works for you and a plan that you can stick to long term and still love your life, that is the end goal!
Weighing food is truly knowledge. I never realized the volume of good food I could eat until I started weighing it. The first meal I weighed was an egg white frittata with baby spinach and ground turkey. It was under 400 calories but had 70g protein and was the size of my dinner plate!! Amazing.
Randomly discovered your channel today and have to say that I love the content. Good amount of information, very straight forward, honest, and your awesome personality shines through. You've got a new sub! Keep up the great work, Bryan.
Loving your 'Not a fitness influencer' videos - someone who is motivated by just being healthy and happy and not by 'being on stage and flexing' is way more relatable for me than most other youtube fitness bods. I've just started my fitness journey - 5 months away due to Hamstring tear :/ But i'm back and your vids are keeping me going. One thing I want to ask is - Sugar. These protein bars and yoghurts and so on - are they high in sugar? They sound like they are and my real question is - how important is it to track sugar intake especially if I am to start having more protein bars and other protein supplements like yogurts and shakes etc. Other than that - Please keep up the laid back, motivational vids :D
i don't know about those studies about better brain/heart function with IF, but i do agree it helps people w/ self-control and to help people manage their caloric intake. I think it's another good tool to ensure you're in caloric balance or deficit, and not surplus. But i do believe you're overall approach is a good one, and probably one that most Americans can actually follow and sustain.
ABSOLUTELY GREAT ADVICE.. I was 290lb now 240lb.. Intermittent fasting and carbing up a little before bed is the way to go.. I wake up full of energy to start the day..
I stumbled onto this video. Glad I did. Really enjoyed your measured outlook, Bryan. So true what you said about inspiration/motivation not lasting very long and having to push through the tough days. Thanks, man.
Another great video. Do you have videos on: how you record/track your daily workouts and your fav exercises per day/“bro split”. Those are 2 topics I struggle with since there are lots of options. Additional thoughts on cold showers and fasting multiple days? Thanks.
I’m 48 years old, my height is 5ft 11 and I’ve just weighed myself and I am 189lbs, now the thing is I stop eating around 6pm and I can go until 2-3pm the following day before I next eat and this is because the job I do I can get caught short as there are no toilets around I can run too as I work for a local council driving a dust cart /bin lorry and when I’ve got to go I’ve got to go. Let’s say my tea tonight was a piece of beef with 3 spring onions and 3 white mushrooms and I still have a mid rift, I wouldn’t say I eat a 1000 calories a day and my weight stays around 85-83kg. I am classed as skinny fat, I just want my belly gone, I can feel my abs under the bit of fat I have but I’ve never ever been to get rid of my stomach fat.
The Apple Watch is a lovely fitness assistant. However, like he said do what works for you within your macros. I personally like high protein breakfast with high fiber carbs, low carb and high protein lunch, and a high protein and fiber dinner. The fiber and protein combo keep me full and satisfied. For snacks, yogurt parfaits in a variation of different flavors. I personally have a peanut butter cup version, because I love reese cups. Biltong, goat cheese, rice cakes, and a boiled egg (minus the yoke, I don’t eat it unless my eggs are scrambled hard,) is a great snack combo for the munchies. Sometimes I have a crunchy texture craving, so pig skins and rice cakes are a lovely substitute.
I just started my life change. One thing I found losing weight is the liquid calories. I’m talkin condiments and drinks. I like to eat, not a lot, but I have to eat what I want and I’m easily 1500-2000 calories just by not doing drinks and condiments. There are a lot of super low cal condiments too. I also never really eat out. That’s a calorie killer as well
At your age .. yeah you can do it, I am 58 and transitioned to carnivore 2+ years ago, best decision ever .. so no carbs for me . Run 48k “week and train 6 days/week calisthenics .
Im pretty meticulous too, but am surprised you even weigh the protein bars, are they really that inconsistent? I would expect a packaged factory protein bar to weigh consistently the same.
Thanks for the content. It Great!! You said you take pre-workout but you take it in the morning; you don't consider it breaking your fast? How does that work. Also, when you're doing your strength training are you not eating afterward. It sounds like your fasted for your lifts. Is that true?
Using the Apple Watch and syncing it with an app called “Lose It” for a calorie counter, has made a world of difference for me. Lose it will adjust my calorie budget based on my activity, by giving me “bonus calories”
I've never tried to weigh food and I don't calorie count right now. I'm currently fasting 16:8 for a week and down 10lbs after the scale hadn't moved forever. The scale is what confuses me most because I'm a bit confused on how food content can matter with weight. Arn't certain foods packed with more calories/fats/carbs than others naturally so how does a scale help.
Most of the fluctuations you'll see on the scale is water weight, it's very deceiving. The more sodium you take in, the more your body will retain water which will raise the weight on the scale. Also, depending how many carbs you eat in a day will affect your water retention as well. What's most important sometimes is sticking with your calorie count down to the very calorie. The scale will trick you lots of times. Stay the course with the diet and you'll see the best results
Definitely agree with your conclusion about eating more carbs the evening before. The training on the next is incredible. My motto is: if you cut carbs you cut your life 😅
I love the video. Still, I wonder if fewer workouts will get someone pretty close (while keeping extremely disciplined about the food). Not everyone can make the time he does for workouts (family obligations, commuting, etc.).
Love this! I do this very similar!!! I ate some pizza yesterday, and this video reminded me that its ok, because I had other days were I was in a deficit!
What a beautiful balance, My favorite part is when you said you can eat whatever you want but would have to burn all the calories to achieve calorie deficit. I love your content God bless you
I'm confused I hear when doing if to stop eating around 6 and not to go to bed with food in your stomach so you get better sleep so your bodies energy is going to healing your body instead of trying to digest the food in your stomach.
Hello Bryan, Thanks for all these info. When you say you eat 80-90g of protein at lunch : I thought it wasn't possible to process more than 35g of protein per lunch ?
That is a common misconception! The body has a rate which it can process protein which is typically 30-40 grams per hour depending on the size of the person but you can eat as much as you want in one meal and your body will still absorb and use it all!
Bro trust me, you don't need this much protein if you're just staying lean. Like 100g a day is fine. I wouldn't even worry about protein intake that much either. If you eat meat, it's almost impossible not to get enough protein. If you're bulking and trying to build muscle, then you need to eat some more. But if you weight in the 150s to 170s lean, you don't need that much protein.
Nice work man. For me, I used IIFYM and was able to get down below 10% body fat. I had to throw in some keto and IF at the end to get show ready but during my cut, If It Fits Your Macros was a game changer. My family and friends couldn't believe I was getting shredded while eating In N Out. Haha. Stay tight, bro!
It's honestly the best way to get lean. Imagine having to go through a cut while simultaneously eating the most bland food around? It's absolute insanity. I almost look forward to my cuts because in all honesty, that's when I eat the most junk food!
I bought an Apple Watch after watching one of Bryan’s videos. I’ve set it up like suggested, and have been smashing workouts and tracking calories. Losing weight consistently and getting fitter closing my rings each day. Love it. It’s addictive.
So sick! Congrats on your effort and commitment/results. I'm about to be making the plunge myself! So excited. It's not the first change that I've made and it for sure won't be the last 💪🏼
Just wondering what time you go to bed cause I work evenings and am thinking about trying this but there's a good 3-4 hours between 10 and when I go to bed
What's the purpose of weighing food that comes in pre-divided servings, like the protein bars and the chocolates? Can't you just look at the nutrition info?
Don’t know how you do that man. My expenditure is around 2500 a day, my usual intake is 14-1600 a day. Today I achieved maintenance calories and it felt like such a chore. (2700) I prefer to get a calorific deficit through work outs / exercise rather than a nutritional deficit but damn. Eating 2500 calories a day is difficult. Feel like all I’m doing is eating.
No sugar coating here. Bryan is telling it how it is. Everything he shares is correct. Unfortunately many expect a magic pill to achieve these results.
Great channel, question about intermittent. Is it mission critical to not eat/drink anything during the 16 fast period? I use a 1/2 container of Premier Protein in my coffee rather than creamer in the morning. I understand the insulin spike and all that, but is it really going to make a difference in the big picture? Thanks.
I love the anti-motivation motivation. It's what everyone needs to hear. Push through even when you're not feeling motivated.
Hell yea! discipline over motivation 🤙🏼

Just found your channel. Big fan already! Thank you 🤘🏼
Liked the video. But can you talk about water ingestion during your day? It would be a great add to the rest of the information.
Congratulations🎗️

So do you avoid alcohol or how do you incorporate wine or bourbon into this?
Gotta do the workout routine as well ! I subscribe immediately on ur iphone video
hoping to put out workout routines sooooon!🙃
I'm confused I hear when doing if to stop eating around 6 and not to go to bed with food in your stomach so you get better sleep so your bodies energy is going to healing your body instead of trying to digest the food in your stomach.
Fantastic video brother!! Thank you for this!! 💪😎

Hey, just wondering. How many kids do you have and how old are they?
Did you research the weight food scale….which one did you purchase?
Hello Bryan,
Thanks for all these info.
When you say you eat 80-90g of protein at lunch : I thought it wasn't possible to process more than 35g of protein per lunch ?
A myth!
That is a common misconception! The body has a rate which it can process protein which is typically 30-40 grams per hour depending on the size of the person but you can eat as much as you want in one meal and your body will still absorb and use it all!
Bro trust me, you don't need this much protein if you're just staying lean. Like 100g a day is fine. I wouldn't even worry about protein intake that much either. If you eat meat, it's almost impossible not to get enough protein. If you're bulking and trying to build muscle, then you need to eat some more. But if you weight in the 150s to 170s lean, you don't need that much protein.
Is there another accurate fitness watch you'd recommend if you don't have Apple? I have Samsung.
Where did you get your sleeveless hoodie? I need one.
Hey Bryan! Love your content.
Where’d you get that hoodie from?
thanks so much! it’s actually kinda an old hoodie, i’ve had it for a couple years lol i think it’s from Forever 21 though!
Thanks! Still looks fresh though. Keep doing what you’re doing!
This is about as clear as it can be. He tells you he’s not trying to be a bodybuilder and just don’t stress out and be consistent.
Bro nice video !! Where is your hoodie from ?
You should do more health & fitness content
Nice work man. For me, I used IIFYM and was able to get down below 10% body fat. I had to throw in some keto and IF at the end to get show ready but during my cut, If It Fits Your Macros was a game changer. My family and friends couldn't believe I was getting shredded while eating In N Out. Haha. Stay tight, bro!
It's honestly the best way to get lean. Imagine having to go through a cut while simultaneously eating the most bland food around? It's absolute insanity. I almost look forward to my cuts because in all honesty, that's when I eat the most junk food!
@@chrisjohnson3967 Hell ya it's definitely the best way. I just ate a Chipotle burrito for lunch. 🤙🏼
Hello Bryan, just wondering where I could buy the vest hoodie what you have in 4:08? :) thanks
This video is awesome!
I bought an Apple Watch after watching one of Bryan’s videos. I’ve set it up like suggested, and have been smashing workouts and tracking calories. Losing weight consistently and getting fitter closing my rings each day. Love it. It’s addictive.
So sick! Congrats on your effort and commitment/results.
I'm about to be making the plunge myself! So excited. It's not the first change that I've made and it for sure won't be the last 💪🏼
Great video! Also very good job on the editing.
subbed, this is incredibly easy to comprehend.
I love that you keep going back to “calorie deficit”…so many influencers on RUclips mislead people..
Hey man, would love to know ur workout routine!

I’ve researched that if you are intermittent fasting, you should be doing weight training in your eating window, not fasting window.
I find that I have no energy to workout in the morning if I go fasted how do some of you guys do this 😅
When you workout fasted do you take any pre workout or coffee ?
i drink preworkout that doesn’t cause an insulin response!
@@BryanAdamCastillo you mind sharing what it is ?
Same age “im 33” same height. Im ex football player so have more large frame but i agree with this video 🙌🏽
Have you seen the recent studies on the benefits of Early Time Restricted Feeding (eTRF)?

Great info....what are your thoughts on Tofu and protein shakes made at home via the Vitamix blender?
Have you tried to add Oats in your protein shake? And make tofu scrambled with turmeric in a wrap?
John Kiefer carbnite solutions did research on eating carbs at night and workout the next morning
great physique Bryan ,how tall are you?
Eating close to bed doesn't affect your sleep too much?
Just wondering what time you go to bed cause I work evenings and am thinking about trying this but there's a good 3-4 hours between 10 and when I go to bed

300-500 calories deficit is per week or per day?
What's the purpose of weighing food that comes in pre-divided servings, like the protein bars and the chocolates? Can't you just look at the nutrition info?
Wow, thanks for that great explanation of what you eat! Really great down-to-earth advice on how and why. Thanks man!

Excellent video!
Don’t know how you do that man. My expenditure is around 2500 a day, my usual intake is 14-1600 a day. Today I achieved maintenance calories and it felt like such a chore. (2700) I prefer to get a calorific deficit through work outs / exercise rather than a nutritional deficit but damn. Eating 2500 calories a day is difficult. Feel like all I’m doing is eating.
Throw in some nuts and or peanut butter etc. Really dense in calories!
No sugar coating here. Bryan is telling it how it is. Everything he shares is correct. Unfortunately many expect a magic pill to achieve these results.

Great channel, question about intermittent. Is it mission critical to not eat/drink anything during the 16 fast period? I use a 1/2 container of Premier Protein in my coffee rather than creamer in the morning. I understand the insulin spike and all that, but is it really going to make a difference in the big picture? Thanks.
