    Man, I love you even more now. I know what you are doing here: Recruting an audience for social pressure. I'd love to provide that for you. Among other things you are the reason I make one of the best white coffees with my Bialetti (Genius method! With my induction cooktop it works even without back and froth of the pot). SO GET IN DECENT SHAPE OLD MAN (-: PS F*** C*****.

    Inspiring to see you get back on the horse! We're all rooting for you.
    Please consider adding resistance training to your regimen. As we age, resistance training becomes increasingly more important to combat sarcopenia. Even if you're not trying to increase muscle, resistance training is needed to fight the loss of muscle that happens naturally.
    Am I correct in assuming that you don't merely want to "lose weight?" Specifically, you are attempting to lose fat and retain the muscle you have. In a caloric deficit, maximizing fat loss whilst minimizing muscle loss is optimized primarily through 1) resistance training and 2) protein intake.
    Have you attempted to use a recumbent style exercise bike to get some easy "zone 2" style conditioning in? It would certainly take the pressure off of your joints.
    If you approach health and wellness with the same analytical mindset as repairing an EK43, I have no doubt that you can make a massive transformation!

    I find this extremely motivational and inspiring. Listening to someone discuss all the things they could use as excuses, while simultaneously showing they aren’t letting those excuses stop them. It’s as if that bag holds every possible excuse and this man is punching the s*** out of all of them. Oh also came here from the Robot espresso video - that was great!

    Much love from the USA, your aeropress recipe was the first budget type recipe of coffee I ever had that I truly enjoyed. I'm working on a joepresso espresso recipe currently and a joepresso filtered coffee hybrid.
    As someone whos 30 with high blood pressure, doc says I have high cholesterol and edging too close to diabetes and need more cardio, I find your being just as straightforward about your health and being human as you are with coffee, philosophically beautiful. Keep it up so you can enjoy coffee and help the world enjoy coffee for much longer.

    That was freaking inspiring. Losing weight should help to... literally lift a lot of weight off your shoulders. You can do it. I should also stop making excuses and do it too, seeing you put the effort is so motivating. Also sorry to hear about the conditions in Ireland. For a country with one of the highest GDP per capita int he world, I did't know things were so bad there.

    Fantastic effort! Any kind of physical activity will vastly improve your health outcomes.
    Loosing adipose tissue around the waist will improve your health far beyond just reducing load on your joints. With GPP(general physical preparedness), adjusting diet(caloric intake, omitting ultra-processed foods) and getting good sleep the quality of your life will improve so drastically you might be in better shape than ever before.

    Great vid - you sure have been through a lot - good to see you're not giving up the fight :) Sorry the move to Ireland didn't work out better - often thought of moving to Europe to get away from "'Merica". I'm getting up there in age and know of some of the things you speak - I know you said you don't like it, but a family friend had wrecked their back and had arthritis and found swimming to be a great way to get exercise when other means were difficult/painful. Wish you the best and hope you reach your goal :)

    I'm sry I don't know your name and hate referring to anyone by informal titles or names like "bro or pal".. So..
    My Friend, absolutely admire your willingness to get "back in the ring". I am praying for you and cheering you on with what right now might be feeling like a mountain you need to climb. But I know you can do it. I see the drive and motivation. May I suggest/ encourage you too look into and giving a try to juicing with a cold press juicer. I'm 49 and my parents are in the mid 70s. They are noticing better health and weight loss. My Dad has main health problems but since we started juicing he has been able to stop taking 2 or 3 meds that he has been on for 10 years..the meds he is no longer taking were for high blood pressure, arthritis and diabetes.
    You have a fan in me. God bless you my friend

    is a stationary bike also out of the question? i would have thought the low-impact nature and the fact that your also using your hands for balance could be a good option for you given that you don't enjoy swimming.

    I'm not old but I've always thought that long 36hr+ fast would be the most optimal form of exercise for old people. Especially because it both increases growth hormone and cleans up senescent cells. Keep doing whatever you can make the norm 👍

    I know you've probably been suggested it but Low Carb High Fat diets do wonders for inflammation and numerous issues. Take a look at the work by Dave Feldman and I think you'll be fascinated. But naturally everyone knows about figures like Prof Tim Noakes (used to advocate for carb heavy diets for runners and wrote the book on running), Halle Berry who is a type 1 diabetic, Mikhaila Peterson (Juvenile Arthritis in the extreme) and Shawn Baker.
    Good luck with the exercise, try find ways to add resistance training in a structured way.

    Wow, how inspiring! I know theres plenty of what and what not to do's all over, but if you're interested I can really recommend intemittent fasting if you want to try it. You just eat for 8 hours and then pause for 16 hours. So skip breakfast really. Very easy and the easiest way to loose some weight, I think. And has many other good effects. I wish you good luck!

    Yes please, do more. There’s still power in those punches. Have you tried intermittent fasting? Eat in an 8 hour window, 16 hrs fast. I did this for general health, but found that I quickly started losing weight and have done, even after increasing calorie intake. I normally do 9:30-17:30 or thereabouts.
