I'm 32, and I gave birth twice. I had colon cancer (stage 4), 11 rounds of rough chemotherapy, colon resection surgery, and a double liver transplant (4 months ago). One month ago, I started lifting weights at the gym, and each week, I felt stronger and more resistant. Keep strong, people! Edit: I've never had some many likes/approval in my life, and I don't randomly share my story like this. I thank you all for your lovely messages, and I too hope that everything will be alright. Wish you all the best! Update Jan '24 I'm not doing sport. The disease came back, and I'm focusing on fighting again. Feb 24, theorically I won again.
I started swimming for 50 minutes 6 days a week since last July (self learned, never swam before). Swimming is technical, not something to get immediately (like running) but I enjoy the process and time in the water. 9 months later I dropped a dress size and got a stronger upper body (and overall body sculpting). I can do yoga poses that used to be difficult for me. I ran for 30 minutes last night for the first time since 2009. I thought I’d die but I did it without much difficulty. I think swimming is a terrific exercise to improve overall health and body condition without pain. I never had sore muscle or creaky joint during these 9 months. It improves my mood tremendously, too.
My fiancee forced me to start running since that was her preferred form of exercise, and she would lift with me. Within a week of running 2 miles twice a week, my recovery between sets of squats went from 2-3 minutes to just over a minute. I still hate running, but it's hard to argue with those results
I’m an avid cyclist and my old zone 4 pace is now my zone 2 pace. The human body is an amazing machine and it is my hope that with all of the work I do in the gym and on my bicycle, I have great quality of life as I age. Longevity is not really my focus. My focus is not being weak and slow as I age. At 61 years old, I weigh what I did when I graduated from high school. I feel young and my mental clarity is as good as it has ever been. We know what makes life better. You just need to get out there and do your thing!
Add anaerobic exercise to your routine. I am 66, do regular rawing for 2 hours or cycling for 3 hours and up to 100 km distance. Yet, additional strength exercise gave me more than only aerobic exercise. Like i do bench press up to 100 kg.
@@Dr_Oleg_Kulikov - I get plenty of anaerobic work mixed in with the cycling and weight routines. I have a functional training coach/trainer and we have a lot of hills to cycle on where I live.
Can't tell you how much it's appreciated that IOHA covers what WAY too many healthcare providers neglect. It's like the purpose of Medicine is only to keep people alive rather than prevent or help us increase our quality of life. So as a ultra distance runner and weight trainer, THANK YOU!!!!!
That isn't exactly correct. I get reimbursed by my insurance company for wellness checkups, getting A1C's twice a year, blood pressure checks, preventative care, etc. and the way they reimburse is by putting the money on like a debit card that I use for various copays like medicines, glasses, doctors visits, fitness and gym. Also, I have RA so my insurance company teamed me up with a healthcare organization that sends me news letters and information about my RA and they have a nurse call me every month to check up on me to make sure I'm exercising, eating properly, taking my medications, keeping my doctors appointments and keeps me informed on new ways to treat RA. I also have diabetes and hyperlipidemia and so my insurance company teamed up with another health care organization that sends me information on diabetes and sends me supplies to check my glucose/blood sugar levels and keeps me informed about cutting edge treatments on diabetes consisting of exercise, medicines, foods, weight control, etc. .
Doctors are way too diplomatic, in my opinion. Many people won't continue visiting doctors who criticize their poor diet, obesity, or lack of exercise. So, the doctors just give a gentle, passing remark until things are out of control. However, if all doctors made a point of direct and honest feedback, the obesity pandemic might be brought under control. We'd see dramatically decreased disease if this happened.
I usually exercise three times a week for around 30 min. I exercised before I studied and the exercise after workout helped me focus better, improved my memory, and do well on tests.
I’m reading a book called “Your Designed Body” and it’s exactly like you said. Just like these videos, it talks about how amazing of an engineered creation it really is.
At 47 years old, I was starting to feel awful; I was tired, grumpy and often achey. I started lifting weights a couple weeks ago and after only THREE times, I feel soooooo much better and vigorous again like a kid almost. I couldn't even sleep most of the night, due to so much energy! It's strange. And to know that it's only going to get even better is AWESOME!

When I was in the Navy, one of my command master chiefs just absolutely loved working out. This guy was just a beast. We'd always see him down in machinery two lower level hitting the weights and especially on the treadmill with the thing cranked up to 14 and even higher at times just going and going and going. He was in his 40s and constantly outclassing the younger guys who, admittedly, were in damn good shape themselves. No one could keep up with the guy; I sure as hell couldn't. There were a number of interesting little legends surrounding the guy. Some that he was a former Navy Seal which would explain why the guy was in such phenomenal shape but my favorite was that he wasn't allowed to give mouth-to-mouth cpr because, supposedly, his body was so efficient at absorbing oxygen that the air he breathed out was almost entirely carbon dioxide. I don't know about any of that but I lay you odds he somehow managed to take these adaptations to the extreme and that's actually why he was so good.
I mean everyone in the navy is fat so a PT stud will stand out. One of my radio operator friends who was a PT stud went to MARSOC after our first duty station. I met him again in one of our friends wedding after I got out of the marines. He told me he thought he was a PT stud until he went rucking with his sniper squad who were on a complete different level. Also my gym buddy was a complete genetic specimen. Dude won the genetic lottery, funny thing is that he was a data marine, basically geek squad, but he smoked all the tank loaders in some battalion competition. Dude busted out around 40 pull up off the side of the tank. He was some farm boy from Ohio so it made sense.
I've been running for 23 years. When I started in high school, 3 miles was a big deal. Today at 38 years old, I can go out and run 12 miles 4x per week like it is a walk in the park; literally feels second nature. I suppose that's 23 years of adaptation 😆
I am 35 soon. 5 years ago out of nowhere I found out that I have high thyroid which was around 6.7. I was not obese but i had a lot of extra weight, and I was not doing any sports. My hair was falling in a crazy way, I was sleepy and tired all day etc. My doctor insisted on me taking medications and I honestly didn't want any serious medication. But instead I started to go to gym, i did stair master cardio everyday for 30 minutes, started slowly to do pilates body movements, was on Keto diet etc. 8 month later I dropped 20lbs and exactly after 1 year of my previous lab tests I took tests again and my results came around 4.3 or so. I continued to do fitness, started to lift weights and gain more muscle. now I am completely healthy. no shedding anymore, not tired, not sleepy during the day time. My labs showed my thyroid 2.2 at my last check up. Fitness changed my life in all meanings and I never took any medication except my vitamins.
Keto was probably a help, too. Fat heals the thyroid. Many kudos to you for taking control of your health and NOT listening to the MD (pill-pushers in white coats).
Do me a favour; if you’re single don’t go thinking ur the best now. Men at the gym also started like you; fat and overweight. I was one of them. Don’t get a big ego and be a tart. I’m happy for you.
Don’t go to the gym and bring your negativity into people that been lifting and exercising longer than you. It’s stupid and disrespectful. People go for the same reason you go; unless they compete. No offence I hate women that go there and act better then everyone, you’re not better; you lost some weight and gained toned body. You millennial and Gen z’s ruined our gym culture. Some guys that do steroids will get attention from gym chicks; you women should appreciate natural guys instead of chasing Tatts and 9% body fat with men on Roids and respect natural lifters! You women disgust me with your attitudes at the gym! Hide behind dating apps and instagram to get laid and walk around like little tarts at the gym after you lost some fat!
So this is why many of my friends at school can recover so quick in sports and not having much trouble with the PE exams. I've always been the weakest kid in my class back at school and now i finally understand the very cause of it. Brilliant explanation
I loved your in depth explanation of how exercise changes you for the better. I always was an active person, lots of walks, working in and creating my many gardens, etc. Hospital nurse for 36 years on my feet (sometimes literally running all shift). 10 months ago I joined a gym and started with one fitness class twice a week. Then I added a spin class twice a week. Then I leveled up to a harder fitness class that did a lot of strength training/weights and added a HIT type class also. Now I am up to daily spin classes, two HIT classes, two strength training classes and a few hours of wall climbing a week! I also now am into cycling and recently went on a 50 mile trip, do outdoor rock climbing, hiking, canoeing. I am totally amazed at how my strength, endurance, body and outlook on life has changed for the better...I am going to be 70 next month and I am fitter than I have ever been in my life. If you are on the fence about being "too old" to get into all this, if I can do it, so can you!
@@hafsabatool8895 even if there's isn't another chance. It's not the end of the world. We live on average 75yrs maybe. I guess you're 20ish. 50yrs goes by really fast as we get older. Anyway seldom do ppl fail bio. You got this
I'm in my late 40s and I recently started strength training thrice a week and cardio thrice. It was amazing to know that these are the changes that are happening to me without me even being aware. Great!
Thrice , that's a word I haven't heard in a long time. I am 58 and OMAD carnivore and swim moderately 1 hour every day. I am also glad to see that at there's a lot of good stuff happening in the back ground.
Another benefit of exercise is that it improves the skin. From WedMd: "By increasing blood flow, exercise helps nourish skin cells and keep them vital." Also, if skin is sagging, weight training can build muscles and, as a side effect, tighten the skin because it has more surface to cover.
Ok yea I've noticed this. My acne us not gone yet, bit wveey time I'm done working out my skin is glowing like crazy. Shining like the sun once Im done. I figured it's from the blood flowing different. 6 months in now. I've lost 15 lbs, and my body definition is def enhanced.
I've been working from home the past 11 years. A lot of sitting and no exercise recipe for disaster. I was overweight chubby to be exact and one day said enough is enough! Bought a Peloton bike and it changed my life. Lost weight, feel better, look better and I have so much energy! God bless everyone and just go exercise make it apart of your life! You don't have to be gym rat or the strongest person just get moving!
I’ve done long distance running for 10 years. One of the things I noticed with blood circulation. It improves my eye sight. I see well but slightly blurry when seeing at a distance. Last year I stopped running to take a break. Today I will get back i shape. After a workout I feel better and more energetic. It improves my sleep. Great video. 😁😎👍🏻🙌🏻
I can second this notion! I think it has to do with dilation of the blood vessels. The head neck area are the area of the body when most tension accumulates without noticing. You can see how people get those fat necks and there get gets bigger has to do with muscles knotting up
I *did* learn some new and amazing things here! Just another motivator to get me out the door ands to the fitness center this morning. On my exercise program for 3 months now, it is getting easier with faster recovery...and now I better understand why.
53 and keeping fast twitch fibres with weight training plus cardio reduces my risk of falling in later life. Love my karate as well. Variety is the spice of capillary life. 😊
Great video man! I’ve stayed away from rep ranges above 12 the last few years to focus on strength & I learned that never going above 12 reps or breathing hard & getting your heart pumping is limiting your potential to gain strength! More blood flow = more energy. More Energy = more mass, & more mass means more strength. Einstein said so! 💪🏼
I started weight lifting seriously about a year ago. I previously trained Muay Thai years ago but had to stop due to injuries. Now, I'm trying to do both, 3 days weight and 2 days Muay Thai. This last week I was at the hospital due to some strong stomach pain. When I was getting ultrasound, the lady would ask me to take a deep breath in. Once she was done, she told me I had very strong lungs and asked me if I was a swimmer. I was really surprised.
Thank you 🙏🏾 I stumbled upon your video , just found out I’m prediabetic ! Still de-conditioned after 2 surgeries and chemo ! This specific info on exercise is so important and greatly appreciated Thank you ! Love your channel I’m hooked ❤
My heart and lungs pump a lot slower but harder since I have been doing and still do a lot of cardio and moderate anaerobic exercises for years. It's so healthy and good! It feels amazing being like this. And you don't need to be big or bulk to live like this! You just need to be fit.
Thank you for this one! It would be great to see some video about Buffering system of blood and how it changes when a certain person increases their physical endurance with exercise
My son and I were just pondering about how amazing it is that humans can walk on such small surface areas like our feet, let alone do ballet, play sports and the like. Amazing
@@ephesians6ten185I agree!! I danced ballet as a child & have always worked very hard. My feet were incredible! Your toes can support you and create such beautiful movements. As an adult, I do karate and when I tell you that our feet are known as "foot swords' I mean they really are weapons!!! Our bodies are amazing tools, imho.
Can you do a video about donating blood? How not many people donate blood, but that there is always a need. And talk about the benefits of donating blood & other blood components
A lot of people who want to donate are turned down, myself specifically because I was born in Eastern Europe. Blame the blood banks not the people. I’m tired of seeing ghouls like yourself whining about not enough blood donations. Be grateful that people donate at all instead of whining and whining, you clearly don’t know anything about what happens behind the scenes.
These are my favourite videos to watch!! Always very informative and well displayed but above all they motivate me to do better! Thank you for creating this channel and sharing MIND BLOWING Information about human bodies!
You have such great presence on screen; you go into so much depth in your explanations, and really get to the meat of the matter. I'm very impressed, and I'm also saving this segment to watch it, later.😊
Dude this video was super helpful. It makes a lot of sense when you break it down like this. I play roller hockey which is a very explosive, stop-start sport. If I think back to my younger days, I partook / incorporated much more steady state cardio & if I think back, it really did help with quicker recovery. It wouldn't have necessarily improved my sprint speed, but allowed me to recover swiftly, so that I was able to sprint again much sooner! At this point in my ability, I am much faster and explosive, but my ability to go again and again is not as good as it used to be. Will 100% be incorporating this! Legend :)
-More capillaries -Increase in blood and nutrition transport -muscles will have more energy to utilise - recover muscle fatigue more quickly -(More effective with strength endurance exercise)😮
The high demand for technique practice in strength sports or other sports definitely benefits from some cardio fitness. That's why weightlifters start with work capacity phase before their other phases in training that ends up with peaking in strength, just so that they're fit enough to get all the training volume in. And I guess this channel has also spoken a lot about the general health benefits of cardio exercising, which doesn't disappear if you're an athlete in strength or other sports, you still benefit from taking care of cardio, for longevity.
I’ve been working out for over 20 years and I didn’t know that we can increase the number capillaries 😮. I always thought we were limited to what we were born with, but this makes perfect sense now that I think about it.
Awesome scientific explanation for the average person to understand. Thank you so much. I have been training in Zone2 for about 2 years. I can feel changes (adaptations) in my body. This is a excellent explainer. Thank you once again.
Amazing. I have been running consistently for 2 years with some breaks in between. I always wondered what actually happens at a biological level to make me go from running 6:30 min/km at 156 bpm to 5:24 min/km at 144 bpm in 2 months of consistent exercise. Fascinating. And yes, steady state workouts are the base of exercising. Muscular stimulation generally takes longer because of the added stress on the actual muscles rather than the heart and lungs combo.
I use to train in college for the crew team. Our lead was a navy seal. My normal training was 6 hours a day, because I was in the smaller side 6'2 forva crew rower. Our team was pretty good, as we were hitting Olympic times in individuals and near that as a team after only one semester together. When I train now in the gym, I use a combination of training almost like this video's recommendations. I was super buff almost olympian to fat, back to being in shape using these techniques Modified for my body and injuries. His advice works, the younger gym members 98% can't keep up with my intensity and training. Learn from the video then modify his advice to yourself.
I do alot of endurance cardio and weight training and thanks to my cardio I only need one minute of rest in between sets it doesn't matter if I am doing reps of 12-15 or heavy triples one minute is all I need. I kind of found out on my own but cool to know the science behind it.
I'm 62 with moderate COPD and had surgery for kidney cancer last September. Six weeks prior to the surgery I began a fitness routine to be in the best shape I could be in for the surgery recovery. I loved it and have been pushing myself pretty hard the past few months. I'm doing fine and am still hitting the gym running 2 miles and lifting weights every other day. I've honestly never felt better than I do right now.
Excellent video. Needed to grow new blood vessels after an arterial graft. After about 6 weeks of training, got a doppler and it was amazing to see the new vessel growth! (About 2 months after the graft.) The body is something to behold, truly. Wonderfully made. ...and I'm in my 50s... this just happened in March.
I took it as a wake up call to really focus on losing my weight when I went to try and donate plasma and they told me that my blood was too yucky and my blood pressure was too high. Ive been exercising since the beginning of 2024 and lost about 30 pounds so now I’m hoping my blood is a lot better and more clean haha I loved this video thank you very much
As always, you guys do an amazing job (insert standing ovation). Talk about getting some motivation from watching this episode! Tonight's agenda when I get home? ---> We are gyming it up with our new membership. Thanks!!
It is impressive to exude that much optimism while surrounded by corpses. :) Good information. It is a great feeling with running when you finally get to the point when you settle into a decent pace and feel comfortable doing it. It actually feels great (the runner's high as they say). It's interesting that when first starting with running, the initial short distance feels ok and then you run out of steam and feel terrible as you have little aerobic ability. Then when you are in decent shape, the first part of the run doesn't feel so great and then you feel better as you warm and switch from anaerobic to aerobic mode.
Interesting. I totally didn't know that lactic acid/metabolic byproducts could be burden-shifted to different types of muscle than the originating type. That definitely helps inform my own fitness approach!
Am 42 en am doing calisthenics I love your channel this is very important stuff you guys are teaching I am good with my hands can fixed stuff or put things together..so love the knowledge
I’ve been doing 30 minutes - an hour walks 5 days a week for about a year now, my resting heart rate has definitely come down. Seems like the stairs don’t knock me out quite so bad either. 😅 Along with other physical benefits I’ve observed.
Hello Jonathan, I have been watching your institution's videos since a long time since I'm interested in Biology and have an aim to become a doctor. So my request is could you make a complete video on how to stop maladaptive daydreaming. I have been suffering with it since a long time and can't find a better way to overcome it. I would be very grateful if you could complete my request. Thank you!!
I love videos that support my methodology of training and explains all the positive benefits I have derived there in. I wish I had influence over more people. It would probably do them some good. Oh well. Great video. Planning my deadlift session for tomorrow. 2 sets. 215lbs. 20 reps. These guys ain’t lying! My recovery is phenomenal. You only grow from what you can recover from.
I hoped this will go into more detail than just "you have more blood volume". I thought than they can talk on viscosity, blood contents, health blood markers and such.
Ok, hear me out, you just gave me a serious lightbulb moment. By the way, total fan of you guys. I read a comment on your heart video, cannot remember which one at the moment, about a wife's husband having chest pain one night that was more painful than usual (she mentioned she was a retired nurse). Husband went to GP, emergency appointment, went home, then GP called them and told them to go to hospital IMMEDIATELY. (I think it was the video where you went in depth about the stints for the heart.) Turns out! This man had been having, I'm 2 and a half minutes into this video by the way, MINI HEART ATTACKS, AND HIS BODY CREATED MORE "TUBING" THAT BASICALLY SAVED HIM FROM A MAJOR HEART ATTACK THAT NIGHT!!!!! KASWJEGHFUIASDGHIASUDB (unintelligible blubbering from mind being blown)!!!! HOLY JESUS MOTHER OF FUCK! I'm not sorry about the cursing because it portrays my amazement and absolute mind sparks.
Thanks ! Gonna show this to my primary,who thinks my blood cell count is too high. After endurance/ strength training hard for 3+ yrs. I was trying to oxygenate my tissue,which my body accom plished by doing exactly what this vid states!. He wants me to keep giving away my blood in a effort to lower the number to " normal" im not the norm! He said," well,i dont want you to have a stroke!", to which i replied, " could you even keep up with me for 10 mins on a bike?, or swimming,,jogging,etc?! " doubt it! And hes 15 yrs younger
Listen to your primary. He is right. According to this video it's the volume of the blood that increases not the concentration of red blood cells. Too many red blood cells per ml. is dangerous. If you have no faith in and despise your primary find one you have faith in. Don't risk your health by watching superficial videos.
Wanted to share that I am a big fan of your channel. I’ve been watching your content for a few years now. Keep up the good work. This is the first then I have ever commented. Wanted to get your perspective on where would the smallest vessel be located?
I’d be interested in knowing how doing intense water aerobics for two hours affects my capillaries. My heart rate gets up pretty good and there is a lot of resistance with the water. I’m just curious about that.

When I was in the Navy, one of my command master chiefs just absolutely loved working out. This guy was just a beast. We'd always see him down in machinery two lower level hitting the weights and especially on the treadmill with the thing cranked up to 14 and even higher at times just going and going and going. He was in his 40s and constantly outclassing the younger guys who, admittedly, were in damn good shape themselves. No one could keep up with the guy; I sure as hell couldn't. There were a number of interesting little legends surrounding the guy. Some that he was a former Navy Seal which would explain why the guy was in such phenomenal shape but my favorite was that he wasn't allowed to give mouth-to-mouth cpr because, supposedly, his body was so efficient at absorbing oxygen that the air he breathed out was almost entirely carbon dioxide. I don't know about any of that but I lay you odds he somehow managed to take these adaptations to the extreme and that's actually why he was so good.
I mean everyone in the navy is fat so a PT stud will stand out. One of my radio operator friends who was a PT stud went to MARSOC after our first duty station. I met him again in one of our friends wedding after I got out of the marines. He told me he thought he was a PT stud until he went rucking with his sniper squad who were on a complete different level. Also my gym buddy was a complete genetic specimen. Dude won the genetic lottery, funny thing is that he was a data marine, basically geek squad, but he smoked all the tank loaders in some battalion competition. Dude busted out around 40 pull up off the side of the tank. He was some farm boy from Ohio so it made sense.
Blahblahblah i went to the gym and this happened...
I don't care. At all.
@@JinxMarie1985 That's okay. _Nobody_ cares what you think. Like, at all...

I've been running for 23 years. When I started in high school, 3 miles was a big deal. Today at 38 years old, I can go out and run 12 miles 4x per week like it is a walk in the park; literally feels second nature. I suppose that's 23 years of adaptation 😆
And you joints are doing well? No issues?
@@johnreidy2804this is what I'm worried about as well. I want to run every day, but I'm not sure if i will be messing up my joints lmao
I am 35 soon. 5 years ago out of nowhere I found out that I have high thyroid which was around 6.7. I was not obese but i had a lot of extra weight, and I was not doing any sports. My hair was falling in a crazy way, I was sleepy and tired all day etc. My doctor insisted on me taking medications and I honestly didn't want any serious medication. But instead I started to go to gym, i did stair master cardio everyday for 30 minutes, started slowly to do pilates body movements, was on Keto diet etc. 8 month later I dropped 20lbs and exactly after 1 year of my previous lab tests I took tests again and my results came around 4.3 or so. I continued to do fitness, started to lift weights and gain more muscle. now I am completely healthy. no shedding anymore, not tired, not sleepy during the day time. My labs showed my thyroid 2.2 at my last check up. Fitness changed my life in all meanings and I never took any medication except my vitamins.
So happy for you! For making a change in your life! 🎉❤
Keto was probably a help, too. Fat heals the thyroid.
Many kudos to you for taking control of your health and NOT listening to the MD (pill-pushers in white coats).
Do me a favour; if you’re single don’t go thinking ur the best now. Men at the gym also started like you; fat and overweight. I was one of them. Don’t get a big ego and be a tart. I’m happy for you.
Don’t go to the gym and bring your negativity into people that been lifting and exercising longer than you. It’s stupid and disrespectful. People go for the same reason you go; unless they compete. No offence I hate women that go there and act better then everyone, you’re not better; you lost some weight and gained toned body. You millennial and Gen z’s ruined our gym culture. Some guys that do steroids will get attention from gym chicks; you women should appreciate natural guys instead of chasing Tatts and 9% body fat with men on Roids and respect natural lifters! You women disgust me with your attitudes at the gym! Hide behind dating apps and instagram to get laid and walk around like little tarts at the gym after you lost some fat!
I’m happy for you women but men are not stupid; we see your attitudes and egos there. Gyms were better 6 years ago
Absolutely loving the exercise physiology direction you've been taking many of your videos in lately.
So this is why many of my friends at school can recover so quick in sports and not having much trouble with the PE exams. I've always been the weakest kid in my class back at school and now i finally understand the very cause of it. Brilliant explanation
You been slackin.
@@kyori7k You're right. Perhaps i've been a spoiled kid all this time since preschool
Yep no exercise you do well return void... Unless you cancel the benefit with processed food and sugar variants
I loved your in depth explanation of how exercise changes you for the better. I always was an active person, lots of walks, working in and creating my many gardens, etc. Hospital nurse for 36 years on my feet (sometimes literally running all shift). 10 months ago I joined a gym and started with one fitness class twice a week. Then I added a spin class twice a week. Then I leveled up to a harder fitness class that did a lot of strength training/weights and added a HIT type class also. Now I am up to daily spin classes, two HIT classes, two strength training classes and a few hours of wall climbing a week! I also now am into cycling and recently went on a 50 mile trip, do outdoor rock climbing, hiking, canoeing. I am totally amazed at how my strength, endurance, body and outlook on life has changed for the better...I am going to be 70 next month and I am fitter than I have ever been in my life. If you are on the fence about being "too old" to get into all this, if I can do it, so can you!
Both of the hosts of this channel are so engaging they really make the stuff fun . Btw tomorrow is my bio exam wish me luck 😂
Goodluck with your bio exam!!

I'm in my late 40s and I recently started strength training thrice a week and cardio thrice. It was amazing to know that these are the changes that are happening to me without me even being aware. Great!

Good morning 🌄🌄
How are you workouts going?
Thrice???
This just made me want to go workout now. Cheers💪
Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Doing exercise in 30s just to lower my blood sugar and increase my strength. Hopefully it can be prolonged my life. God bless all of you..
Don’t eat sugar fruits bread starches and you will get a better sugar control than from exercising
Another benefit of exercise is that it improves the skin. From WedMd: "By increasing blood flow, exercise helps nourish skin cells and keep them vital."
Also, if skin is sagging, weight training can build muscles and, as a side effect, tighten the skin because it has more surface to cover.
Ok yea I've noticed this. My acne us not gone yet, bit wveey time I'm done working out my skin is glowing like crazy. Shining like the sun once Im done. I figured it's from the blood flowing different. 6 months in now. I've lost 15 lbs, and my body definition is def enhanced.
I've been working from home the past 11 years. A lot of sitting and no exercise recipe for disaster.
I was overweight chubby to be exact and one day said enough is enough!
Bought a Peloton bike and it changed my life. Lost weight, feel better, look better and I have so much energy!
God bless everyone and just go exercise make it apart of your life!
You don't have to be gym rat or the strongest person just get moving!
I’ve done long distance running for 10 years. One of the things I noticed with blood circulation. It improves my eye sight. I see well but slightly blurry when seeing at a distance. Last year I stopped running to take a break. Today I will get back i shape.
After a workout I feel better and more energetic. It improves my sleep. Great video. 😁😎👍🏻🙌🏻
that's interesting. have you ever looked into this phenomenon of better vision? wonder if literature says anything about this
yes I also noticed that doing cardio improves my eyes sight as well
me too
I can second this notion! I think it has to do with dilation of the blood vessels. The head neck area are the area of the body when most tension accumulates without noticing. You can see how people get those fat necks and there get gets bigger has to do with muscles knotting up
Oh wow! I thought I was the only one that happens to!!!!!
The videos this channel produces never disappoint, are always high quality and educational. Great video as usual!
I *did* learn some new and amazing things here! Just another motivator to get me out the door ands to the fitness center this morning. On my exercise program for 3 months now, it is getting easier with faster recovery...and now I better understand why.
Glad to hear it! Keep up the good work!
Training with weights is proved to keep you younger. Hit it hard bro! 😊
53 and keeping fast twitch fibres with weight training plus cardio reduces my risk of falling in later life. Love my karate as well. Variety is the spice of capillary life. 😊
? How do you keep fast twitch fibres.
@@badplayer5880 you use them
Great video man! I’ve stayed away from rep ranges above 12 the last few years to focus on strength & I learned that never going above 12 reps or breathing hard & getting your heart pumping is limiting your potential to gain strength! More blood flow = more energy. More Energy = more mass, & more mass means more strength. Einstein said so! 💪🏼
I started weight lifting seriously about a year ago. I previously trained Muay Thai years ago but had to stop due to injuries. Now, I'm trying to do both, 3 days weight and 2 days Muay Thai. This last week I was at the hospital due to some strong stomach pain. When I was getting ultrasound, the lady would ask me to take a deep breath in. Once she was done, she told me I had very strong lungs and asked me if I was a swimmer. I was really surprised.
Don’t drop out of the gym while doing martial arts. It will lead to muscular imbalance and injuries. Learned this a hard way.
Man I love you're videos I have gained so much knowledge from them, even helping me on my lifting journey and science class in high school!
Thank you 🙏🏾 I stumbled upon your video , just found out I’m prediabetic ! Still de-conditioned after 2 surgeries and chemo ! This specific info on exercise is so important and greatly appreciated Thank you ! Love your channel I’m hooked ❤
I've been wondering why I don't need as much time to recover between sets during weight training as I used to. That makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
I felt a huge difference in my body after I start doing cross fit, before I was in a comfort zone of only going surfing and running.
Jonathan is nice. He gives credit where it's there. Every video mentions "with the help of the cadavers"😊
I have been using your videos like these to help me bounce back from POTS I thank yall so much as these videos have been a big help!
My heart and lungs pump a lot slower but harder since I have been doing and still do a lot of cardio and moderate anaerobic exercises for years. It's so healthy and good! It feels amazing being like this. And you don't need to be big or bulk to live like this! You just need to be fit.
Yeah, sometimes I even got scared when I saw a 43 heart rate. But it's pretty normal nowadays for me.
@@RonaldoTalison it's called bradycardia
@@eggbenedict-gt7mwidk if thats applied for someone thatdoes more exercise like an elite runner
Thank you for this one!
It would be great to see some video about Buffering system of blood and how it changes when a certain person increases their physical endurance with exercise
We will add it to the list! Thanks for watching!
My son and I were just pondering about how amazing it is that humans can walk on such small surface areas like our feet, let alone do ballet, play sports and the like. Amazing
The human foot was designed anatomically to walk with on the earth with zero footwear year round.
@@HighSpeedNoDrag I think that you might have a very relevant point there. Phenomenal piece of anatomy, the foot. Fascinating to say the least
@@ephesians6ten185I agree!! I danced ballet as a child & have always worked very hard. My feet were incredible! Your toes can support you and create such beautiful movements. As an adult, I do karate and when I tell you that our feet are known as "foot swords' I mean they really are weapons!!! Our bodies are amazing tools, imho.
Can you do a video about donating blood? How not many people donate blood, but that there is always a need. And talk about the benefits of donating blood & other blood components
A lot of people who want to donate are turned down, myself specifically because I was born in Eastern Europe. Blame the blood banks not the people. I’m tired of seeing ghouls like yourself whining about not enough blood donations. Be grateful that people donate at all instead of whining and whining, you clearly don’t know anything about what happens behind the scenes.
These are my favourite videos to watch!! Always very informative and well displayed but above all they motivate me to do better! Thank you for creating this channel and sharing MIND BLOWING Information about human bodies!
You have such great presence on screen; you go into so much depth in your explanations, and really get to the meat of the matter. I'm very impressed, and I'm also saving this segment to watch it, later.😊
@prideorhonesty6242
Can't let someone compliment someone without getting sarcastic?
I absolutely love your guys videos on exercise-indiced changes in the body!
Dude this video was super helpful. It makes a lot of sense when you break it down like this. I play roller hockey which is a very explosive, stop-start sport. If I think back to my younger days, I partook / incorporated much more steady state cardio & if I think back, it really did help with quicker recovery. It wouldn't have necessarily improved my sprint speed, but allowed me to recover swiftly, so that I was able to sprint again much sooner! At this point in my ability, I am much faster and explosive, but my ability to go again and again is not as good as it used to be. Will 100% be incorporating this! Legend :)
Excellent narrative and presentation, highly useful and informative! Thank you 😊
-More capillaries
-Increase in blood and nutrition transport
-muscles will have more energy to utilise
- recover muscle fatigue more quickly
-(More effective with strength endurance exercise)😮
Thank you
This is the comment I was looking for. Lol thank you!
The high demand for technique practice in strength sports or other sports definitely benefits from some cardio fitness. That's why weightlifters start with work capacity phase before their other phases in training that ends up with peaking in strength, just so that they're fit enough to get all the training volume in. And I guess this channel has also spoken a lot about the general health benefits of cardio exercising, which doesn't disappear if you're an athlete in strength or other sports, you still benefit from taking care of cardio, for longevity.
I’ve been working out for over 20 years and I didn’t know that we can increase the number capillaries 😮. I always thought we were limited to what we were born with, but this makes perfect sense now that I think about it.
Awesome scientific explanation for the average person to understand. Thank you so much. I have been training in Zone2 for about 2 years. I can feel changes (adaptations) in my body. This is a excellent explainer. Thank you once again.
Amazing. I have been running consistently for 2 years with some breaks in between. I always wondered what actually happens at a biological level to make me go from running 6:30 min/km at 156 bpm to 5:24 min/km at 144 bpm in 2 months of consistent exercise. Fascinating. And yes, steady state workouts are the base of exercising. Muscular stimulation generally takes longer because of the added stress on the actual muscles rather than the heart and lungs combo.
I use to train in college for the crew team. Our lead was a navy seal. My normal training was 6 hours a day, because I was in the smaller side 6'2 forva crew rower. Our team was pretty good, as we were hitting Olympic times in individuals and near that as a team after only one semester together. When I train now in the gym, I use a combination of training almost like this video's recommendations. I was super buff almost olympian to fat, back to being in shape using these techniques Modified for my body and injuries. His advice works, the younger gym members 98% can't keep up with my intensity and training. Learn from the video then modify his advice to yourself.
I'm addicted to your videos! Thank you for your hard work.
We appreciate the fact that you've given us information that we all needed to know. God bless you all.
I do alot of endurance cardio and weight training and thanks to my cardio I only need one minute of rest in between sets it doesn't matter if I am doing reps of 12-15 or heavy triples one minute is all I need. I kind of found out on my own but cool to know the science behind it.
Awesome video! Love the added motivation from knowing my body’s adaptations
I'm 62 with moderate COPD and had surgery for kidney cancer last September. Six weeks prior to the surgery I began a fitness routine to be in the best shape I could be in for the surgery recovery. I loved it and have been pushing myself pretty hard the past few months. I'm doing fine and am still hitting the gym running 2 miles and lifting weights every other day. I've honestly never felt better than I do right now.
Excellent video. Needed to grow new blood vessels after an arterial graft. After about 6 weeks of training, got a doppler and it was amazing to see the new vessel growth! (About 2 months after the graft.) The body is something to behold, truly. Wonderfully made. ...and I'm in my 50s... this just happened in March.
Omg thank you. I will explain practically to my diabetic father. We r building gym habit. Hopefully he won't be lazy again❤
Exercise adaptation is one of my favorite things to explore. Def super cool :)
I took it as a wake up call to really focus on losing my weight when I went to try and donate plasma and they told me that my blood was too yucky and my blood pressure was too high. Ive been exercising since the beginning of 2024 and lost about 30 pounds so now I’m hoping my blood is a lot better and more clean haha I loved this video thank you very much
This channel is a blessing for curious kids like us
Thank you so much for these informative videos. I learn a lot from here, so please keep them coming. 🙏🏾
My students love these videos!
We love hearing that!
These vids are always so informative, thanks!
As always, you guys do an amazing job (insert standing ovation). Talk about getting some motivation from watching this episode! Tonight's agenda when I get home? ---> We are gyming it up with our new membership. Thanks!!
It is impressive to exude that much optimism while surrounded by corpses. :) Good information. It is a great feeling with running when you finally get to the point when you settle into a decent pace and feel comfortable doing it. It actually feels great (the runner's high as they say).
It's interesting that when first starting with running, the initial short distance feels ok and then you run out of steam and feel terrible as you have little aerobic ability. Then when you are in decent shape, the first part of the run doesn't feel so great and then you feel better as you warm and switch from anaerobic to aerobic mode.
Interesting. I totally didn't know that lactic acid/metabolic byproducts could be burden-shifted to different types of muscle than the originating type. That definitely helps inform my own fitness approach!
The visual aids were SO helpful!
YAY ! Exercise.. My favourite subject. Thanks!! I didn't know much . Now I'm more informed.
What a great video. Thank you so much!
I just got back from the gym.
Am 42 en am doing calisthenics I love your channel this is very important stuff you guys are teaching I am good with my hands can fixed stuff or put things together..so love the knowledge
Very educational. MUCH better than science classes at school. Thank you!
I’ve been doing 30 minutes - an hour walks 5 days a week for about a year now, my resting heart rate has definitely come down. Seems like the stairs don’t knock me out quite so bad either. 😅 Along with other physical benefits I’ve observed.
Veeeery informative and delivered perfectly 👌🏽
I enjoy this channel so much. The only video I watch is youtube sports medicine channels, mountain biking channels, and this channel. Thank you!
I am so happy I get to study this as my major
Hello Jonathan,
I have been watching your institution's videos since a long time since I'm interested in Biology and have an aim to become a doctor.
So my request is could you make a complete video on how to stop maladaptive daydreaming. I have been suffering with it since a long time and can't find a better way to overcome it. I would be very grateful if you could complete my request.
Thank you!!
I love videos that support my methodology of training and explains all the positive benefits I have derived there in. I wish I had influence over more people. It would probably do them some good. Oh well. Great video. Planning my deadlift session for tomorrow. 2 sets. 215lbs. 20 reps. These guys ain’t lying! My recovery is phenomenal. You only grow from what you can recover from.
Great!! Keep it up
20 reps is overkill for an exercise like deadlifts. That rep range is most useful for abs, delts...even biceps and triceps.
Yayyy i love these fitness/body/brain series!
Feels awesome that my body is making all of these improvements. Makes me want to gym more
I don’t know if your channel already has it, but if you guys don’t mind could you guys put all of your exercise videos into a playlist?
I hoped this will go into more detail than just "you have more blood volume". I thought than they can talk on viscosity, blood contents, health blood markers and such.
Same. I was expecting information like blood chemistry changes, like decreased glucose, possibly increased lactic acid, etc
An honestly very helpful video especially in that last section with the nitty gritty on the specific benefits
Ok, hear me out, you just gave me a serious lightbulb moment. By the way, total fan of you guys. I read a comment on your heart video, cannot remember which one at the moment, about a wife's husband having chest pain one night that was more painful than usual (she mentioned she was a retired nurse). Husband went to GP, emergency appointment, went home, then GP called them and told them to go to hospital IMMEDIATELY. (I think it was the video where you went in depth about the stints for the heart.) Turns out! This man had been having, I'm 2 and a half minutes into this video by the way, MINI HEART ATTACKS, AND HIS BODY CREATED MORE "TUBING" THAT BASICALLY SAVED HIM FROM A MAJOR HEART ATTACK THAT NIGHT!!!!! KASWJEGHFUIASDGHIASUDB (unintelligible blubbering from mind being blown)!!!! HOLY JESUS MOTHER OF FUCK! I'm not sorry about the cursing because it portrays my amazement and absolute mind sparks.
Thanks ! Gonna show this to my primary,who thinks my blood cell count is too high. After endurance/ strength training hard for 3+ yrs. I was trying to oxygenate my tissue,which my body accom plished by doing exactly what this vid states!. He wants me to keep giving away my blood in a effort to lower the number to " normal" im not the norm! He said," well,i dont want you to have a stroke!", to which i replied, " could you even keep up with me for 10 mins on a bike?, or swimming,,jogging,etc?! " doubt it! And hes 15 yrs younger
Listen to your primary. He is right. According to this video it's the volume of the blood that increases not the concentration of red blood cells. Too many red blood cells per ml. is dangerous. If you have no faith in and despise your primary find one you have faith in. Don't risk your health by watching superficial videos.
Esse canal é um presente
Si amigo
What a fascinating video..Im into weight training and cardio and just stumbled over this on my You Tube feed..Thank You..
Wanted to share that I am a big fan of your channel. I’ve been watching your content for a few years now. Keep up the good work. This is the first then I have ever commented. Wanted to get your perspective on where would the smallest vessel be located?
Really nice synopsis guys - great explanation on the cardiovascular system and benefits of training
I’d be interested in knowing how doing intense water aerobics for two hours affects my capillaries. My heart rate gets up pretty good and there is a lot of resistance with the water. I’m just curious about that.
Likely going to stimulate this adaptation! Thanks for watching!
Wow ... awesome info! I appreciate learning things here so that I don't get duped by others on the internet. Thank you so much!
Wow, this was very educative & mind blowing. There's always something new to learn every time. Thanks
Love the exercise oriented vids! Hope to see many more of these 😮
It's good to watch how you guys are discussing physiology of human body as well ✌️
Knowledge is power, thank you for explaining it so well. 👍🏻
Just got back from biking. This is good information to know. I knew bones could adapt, I didn’t know capillaries could too.
