I have learned some of the techniques mentioned in this video by observing my cats, tbh. Especially my dudebro cat. He's buff af, yet sleeps about 20 hrs a day. He'll also stretch often, like several times a day, and work his upper arms (aka scratching the furniture) as often as he can, but always in short bursts of furniture-destroying mania. Top that with his HIIT workout (zoomies), and you got yourself a real Kittechad.
I used to have a chin up Bar over my bathroom door, had to do a set to go in and to leave. Thank you for the reminder; now I’m going to Sportmart to pick up a doorway chin up bar
Another one: substitute a routine into a workout. My new job is 10 min away by car, I got a cheap bike and get there in 20 min. My legs are killing me but it's another small workout I have
There is a lot of people giving the same info. Again and again but watching you guys and your style and approach is very MOTIVATING.. which is the hardest thing of them all " Motivation" thank you guys
My challenge for a lifetime is to add more mobility workouts. I've done all kinds of different workouts but not any kind of mobility workouts. I had several injuries that took a while to heal and occasionally the pain lingers but every since I started incorporating Strength Side mobility workouts (2x/wk) , Ive notice a hella lot of feel good days. I love and appreciate the tips. Aloha !
20 minutes is more than enough time to get a good workout, ie. I just did 10 pushups and 20 kettlebell swings, each set on the minute for 20 minutes (20 sets, so 200 pushups and 400 swings in total), that was killer and simple. I got that workout done in less time than it takes to get to/from a gym, and it was free.
THANK YOU! Your vids are so helpful and encouraging. I don't have the time (or desire) to go to the gym all the time, but I love being active and want to be healthy. Thanks for sharing these great tips.
Great video Love the stacking concept "Stacking - watching videos like this, eating my breakfast, and doing some basic dumbbell routines" this is how I start my day every day Thanks for sharing
HELLO FROM BC I’d like to offer YOU my GRATITUDE. I just found your channel and this is the first time ever I FEEL INSPIRED TO Work on my body. I have chronic SCJ pain that only gets better by straightening my and gluteus. I can’t wait to get home and start slowly but surely my work out. I might even create a channel to show my progress. THANK YOU FOR BEING SUCH AN INSPIRATION, and FIR BEING HUMBLE ❤ 🙏😇
I really like the idea of this approach. I'm a natural fidget who feels like I've got trapped energy in my body while sitting long periods of time. Waiting to release this tension later in the day at the gym in a 45min session just doesn't work for me. It's time to make this my life. Not 45min 3x a week. You guys rock! Thank you!
I personally love to be on the floor when working on my laptop. And then switch positions every now and then. For example start in crossed leg pose until uncomfortable, then into a light pancake, then into a 90/90, switch sides, pigeon, cobra. You could even work on the laptop in a lunge position if you have enough mobility to be close enough to the floor or elevate your laptop with a shoe box. There are many options and I love the strength side way!
Brilliant idea! It might be hard to keep track of what you’ve done and what exercises still to do. Does anyone know a simple, free app to track your movement snacks?
My goal is to do Hip flexor pigeon pose stretches every night before I go to bed and abit of squat/ankle mobility work on top of it. Try to hit Full Body Workouts at least twice a week and 10k steps on at least 5 days of the week as well.
Thank you so much for your videos! I really enjoy them. I would be very interested to know what you think of an EMOM approach for bodyweight exercises with a tight time budget. Example: If my max pull-up reps are 6, and I do 50% of my max every minute for 10 minutes, then I do 30 reps in that time. In the same time, I could do about 18 reps with straight sets. With the EMOM approach I get a higher volume in the same time and also accumulate muscle fatigue over time and get a small cardio session. If 10 x 3 becomes too easy, I can gradually adjust the reps up to 10 x 5. If 10 x 5 becomes too easy, I can start again at 10 x 3 with additional weight. This workout could easily be integrated into a busy daily routine: 10 minutes of pull-ups here, 10 minutes of push-ups there, 10 minutes of squats there.
Stealing that! I love it. I've been moving about the house and yard (and work when no one is here) using animal flow calisthenics like bear and cat crawl.
I am 68 years old and I do ATG zero program every day. I also do the men’s 30 day yoga challenge for 20 minutes every day and I try to take a cold shower every day usually for five minutes but sometimes due to time I knock it down to two. I also am working on my yard and my deck.
Josh, I don't know what your diet is right now, but you look way better than ususal, keep it up!! (Kidding, you both look great of course...) Greetings from Germany Great info and inspiration in the video, as always.
To prepare a triathlon M ( olympic format ) in enseptember, i decided to go rucking each time I walk my dog , which is 3 times a day, in total about an hour daily. I started with a 5 kg plate in my backpack, now it is 15 kg, July and August It will be 20 kg, and hopefully 25 kg in September. It works beautufully for my endurance and strenght, a great "atomic habit" I implemented.
I sympathise with the ideas laid out in this video, but if you recommend something that goes against the "mainstream", I think you ought to provide some evidence that suggests it works at least as well. For example, does a single set of pushups whenever you open social media really achieve strength gains comparable to a "proper" upper body workout where you warmed up etc? I'd be curious to see that.
@@jantona I never said it had to be "maximally effective", but I think it's a legitimate question to ask whether it actually works. You probably wouldn't call "Don't have time to go to the gym? Then just don't" a fitness hack, would you?
The military always had everyone doing 10 pushups here and there all day everyday. Instead of just doing a bunch at once. The PT test was the bunch at once. Worked for them!
I watched this on 2.0x speed so I could have another 4m 42s of workout time at the gym... but now I've used 30 seconds to post this comment so I'm down to 4m 12s.
Great video! One of my biggest barriers is hyper mobility and joints that *CLUNK* in their sockets from just existing or moving around, especially my shoulders and wrists, and I'm just not sure how to start without accidentally hurting myself. Any tips?
I think in the past 3-4 years I have watched 90% of my TV while working out or stretching. Sitting still makes me feel odd, unless I am at movie theatres (where I do stay in a squat anyway...). Of course I still workout without TV or anything, just focusing on the movements, but if I really have to watch TV, then I move. It's an implicit rule by now. Also, no day goes by without me doing one pull up when passing under the bar on the living room door.
Dr. Rhonda Patrick pushes the idea of exercise "Snacks," doing something whenever you have a few.... A baby jogger, aka racing stroller, is one of the best exercise stackers! You get a babysitter, get a great workout, and introduce the kids to an active lifestyle at an early age. My 3 kids, and now my grandkids were raised in one!
I appreciate this, but man, I get up and GO. Go outside for 13+ miles of hills and hiking (on a rough road) whilst keeping my eyes peeled for pileated woodpeckers and other crazy wildlife. One morning after a rain, there were all these TOADS. They were all different sizes, all posed, like they were going to play chicken with oncoming traffic. It was CRAZY. Then I go home and commune with my competition kettlebells and hex weights and my FAVORITE 30lb. Medicine Ball. Seriously, if I had to cut this short, I'd do five sets of medicine ball squats alternating with pushups. Then I always do about 30 focused uphill minutes on my Peloton Tread, while I watch RUclips or NetFlix or listen to Spotify on my phone. So tired of chatty trainers talking about this or that and having to listen to their questionable music choices. I just set the speed to 4 and the Tread goes up and down according to the workout. That is a great feature. Auto incline! I'm married, spouse is retired, we have no kids, all our pets have passed on. I will be starting a part time job next month. A part time job that is SECOND SHIFT. Yay! Can just get up and do my THANG and then go to work in the afternoon.
I also still work full-time for a factory I work 84 hours every two weeks. Plus doing the five minute cold showers doing ATG every day doing the men’s 30 day yoga challenge every day and stretching every day on top of replacing sprinkler system rebuilding my deck working on my trucks and so on
today is Sunday my last day off I work nights at the factory 12 hour shifts. I was going to take today off and rest, but this video kicked me in the ass. I’m gonna do yoga now and then I’ll probably do ATG and then I’ll run out and do thesprinkler system it’s 5:48 AM right now. I couldn’t sleep last night so I got up and ate breakfast now I’m gonna work out a full stomach, which I never do.
This is helpful for a granny like me Remember to get the 10 k steps ...push ups and can do chair excires along with stretches...OH and LMNT electrolytes are the best.....
I wish my WFH husband could do these little active exercise breaks. Unfortunately when on a call or working independently, he has to look at a computer screen (sometimes multiple ones) to get anything accomplished. There are no work calls that don’t involve several computer programs or emails. He often gets so lost in work that he’ll forget to eat lunch. How do I get him to try these things before or after work without sounding like I’m nagging him?
Hai i am ur follower. I am doing some workout as u said.still i need some clear basic strengthening and mobility workout to build my strong and shape. Will pls master.
Does anyone have any recommendations on rep counters to track these habits easily? Thinking something that uses image recognition to count what you do with the phone camera. They exist but am wondering what are the best that people have found?
Hi I was very good with squats but later i exeperiance severe pain in my right knee after smri found that i have ostioartheritis then i had to stop exercise it took 1 full year to get rid of the pain and today my knees goes into pain after doing just 10 reps of squats what to do
Ofc he does more is better,sell sell and sell,and of course he got no programming no step by step no progressions, no sincere intent to help and inspire..he wants views,sells and subs 🎉❤ and wows 😂 6:386:38

There is a place in my heart for this approach, consistent movement throughtout the day rather than just 1 hour 3-4x a week.
it's the way!
This is exactly what I’m helping my clients achieve. Snacking on movement is life
@@paraworthsnacking on movement = 🤯
Thank you for staying true to yourself despite becoming "popular" and sharing a message about healthy approach to physical activity.

Mind-blowing animal flow, dude
Gorillas too, v strong🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
15 minute strength exercise in morning, 15 minute mobility in evening. Clear and attainable. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you. His way of incorporating exercise into daily life is practical. Greetings from Argentina.
I put a grip-strengthener in my car, in the door pocket. Now when I drive somewhere, I pull it out and work on grip strength.
Doing this, omg amazing!

Would you be open to doing a video on high arch feet ? Seems like a huge gap in content on this on the internet. Could be helpfull
What pull up bar are you using outside?
Makes sense

Hi
I was very good with squats but later i exeperiance severe pain in my right knee after smri found that i have ostioartheritis then i had to stop exercise it took 1 full year to get rid of the pain and today my knees goes into pain after doing just 10 reps of squats what to do
how do you eat for calisthenics on a budget? if you see this comment help please???😥😣
Think I'm gonna make myself work on stretches & flexibility while I listen to/watch your videos
Eat well, go outside, move your body. That’s literally all you have to do
What’s the name of the pull-up setup @1:30?
What I love to do is just to sit in weird positions, to do weird things with my body all the time, and I feel better 👌🏻
Be careful though those elements arcing waters are very, very salty… It taste good but it’s more than you expect
I do push up in a work.during breaks. Daily
Laying in bed with insomnia? Leg raises.
Scattered exercise throughout the day can be called "Greasing the Groove "
Watching this video while sitting in a squat 😄
Hello, Strength Side. Please make your videos able to add to playlists. I'd like to be able to save them for future reference. Thanks!
I put on 12kg since I got married a year ago 😂. This month's challenge is to do 10,000 steps a day
