    For a while now, I've been experimenting with multiple workouts per day. Instead of training just once all in one go, I'm instead training 2, 3, or even 4 times a day. Of course, though, these are much shorter workouts that are nevertheless intense enough to trigger a response from my body.
    I started doing this for the practical benefits: training with shorter workouts should be easier to fit into a packed schedule. I was curious to see if this could provide similar results to regular training (i.e. training all in one go).
    What I found, though, was that this actually yielded superior results. I seemingly gained more muscle, burned more fat, and improved in strength and skill. Turns out there are some logical reasons for this.
    So, I probably won't be going back. This video shares those explanations, how I trained that way and how you can do something similar. What do you think? Will you be trying it?
    As always guys, thanks for watching!

    How does that work with warming up? You're much younger than me, but at my age I really have to be careful to warm up to prevent injury. Can warmup be a part of that short 10-15 minute workout and still get results?

    Being an instructor in the military this is exactly what we do. Morning WO is more towards mobility and to get the pump up. Then throughout the day you do micro PE. It doesn't matter if the recruits has theory or practical exercises. They are more awake and perform better and you can really see the progression in both strength and conditioning during a 3 month period.

  • @erikharrison
    @erikharrison 2 года назад +535

    Yeah, this was the strategy that broke my latest plateaus, while also just being way more pleasant. The science strongly supports it to - every time a longer rest period between sets is studied it results in better gains, and I've yet to see a cap. Likely because researchers aren't going to test multi hour rests, as they are impractical for most athletes.
    But if the base of your training is calisthenics and easily accessible home equipment, then you really can rest an hour or two between sets, spreading volume across your entire day. This is incredible for fatigue management, not just because your sets are higher quality, but day to day fatigue is reduced. This let me move to full body every day, doubling my total workout volume while actually reducing my day-to-day fatigue.
    Yeah, never going back

    When i was a groundworker i noticed something that backs your viewpoint. At the time i was a fitness freak (martial arts-gym-marathons) but i noticed my strength increased dramatically over a few months. This was before mechanisation in the building industry and the work consisted of lifting very heavy pipes, or steel a few times a day. The actual "exercise" would last for no more than say ten minutes in the working day but would leave me (and others) completely drained. My bench in the gym and other exercises increased considerably without seemingly trying and i felt sure it was due to this exertion of about 40-50 minutes max a week. I also noticed that the other groundworkers were very-very-very strong, if not monsters, and few if any did any exercise other than bicep curls lifting pints at the pub.

Small bursts of activity can easily be placed between meetings and keep me active and sharp. Yoga in the morning, 1-3 10-15' strength sessions and some bursts of cardio. Most difficult is intense cardio, because I will be sweary af after a few minutes.

    I've actually taken this a step further with one of the three workout plans I cycle through over the course of a year: there are no fixed sessions, just a total number of reps I have to do over the course of the day, which is of course adjusted to the fact that I'm not doing them in one session. There's also no fixed exercise regime, I just do a variety of chest, triceps and front/side selt exercises on a push day, rear delt, back and biceps on a pull day, and different leg exercises on a leg day (usually about two thirds of the exercises for bigger muscles, and the rest with a greater focus on shoulders, arms, etc.). Easier exercises simply count less, for example two push-ups make one dip. While this may not be the most optimized way to achieve muscle growth, it's so incredibly convenient that I never miss a day, the flexibility in exercises allows me to do it anywhere, and the fact that you're working out all day means you are constantly on a bit of a pump - so for those interested in looking good, this works great as well.

    Ever since starting working from home, this has been the way I work out. I’ve found standing desks are an excellent way for me to stay active through the day. When I’m waiting for a response from a coworker I will usually do a few squats, push-ups, or lift some weights I have nearby. I’ve seen good improvements of my musculature and energy levels.

    You're one of if not my favorite content providers on RUclips. I'm literally having to break up all the excercises of my routine throughout the day rn as well. It's not anything different in my experience to working a manual labor job from a day to day basis. The body can recover from a lot, especially if you're fueling it correctly.

    It's crazy I ran across this video. I started my fitness journey almost two years ago. But I'm a nurse and work lots of 12 hour shifts. So was only getting a good workout in a couple days a week. I started a couple months ago, doing different short workouts throughout the day. 25 squats here, 50 lunges there, pushups, just various things and my results have exceeded what I've been doing this past two years. Ppl comment all the time. So I totally love the broken up workouts throughout the day.

  • @Jordan-dr3wo
    @Jordan-dr3wo 2 года назад +4

    My best results came from a very similar strategy.
    I did a push/pull/leg split, and got great results focusing on one movement throughout the day. I did towel assisted one arm pullups, one arm pushups, and pistol squats. On push day for example, I would do 5 sets throughout the day. I started with 5 reps of one arm pushups, and increased by 1 rep per week. Within no time I got to 20 reps and I could feel my shirts getting tighter and tighter. I moved better, felt better, and my muscles felt denser

  • @SuperYulian94
    @SuperYulian94 2 года назад +12

    This is actually a thing for me too. I'm separating my training in two, one part in the morning, as early as i can, where I train my "split" (Push/pull/legs), and a second part in the night almost two hours before bed, where I train abs, core, and hip mobility. It's been like four weeks since I started doing this and I would be lying if I said that I'm not seeing results.

    Brief history: I'm 75 yo, twenty years ago I would run to the crest of the Sierra Nevada Mts. and back (aprox. 30 miles) on weekends... and then had health issues at about sixty-five and stopped all that. Six months ago I had a stint inserted into my aorta and have very gradually (VERY gradually) been getting back into walking and strength training, making sure that I am keeping my heart rate and BP at a reasonable level. I am now doing a strictly vegan diet with vegan supplements, building my muscles back up. I love the idea of doing short workouts several times a day. For us "older" farts, it makes more sense. I know I'll never get back to what I was, but I can be "better" than what I am.... although how can I improve my own perfection?? 😎 Thanks for this video... it's pointing people like me in the proper direction.

    Short workouts are awesome, me and my crew did this at the firehouse. A few years ago we were so busy with calls we had no time for long workouts and did not want to be fatigued during an incident. We experimented by doing 1 to 3 exercises twice a day during shift. The strength gains were amazing.

  • @connor4702
    @connor4702 2 года назад +16

    Honestly, same here! I workout 4 times a day. I run early in the morning and then throughout the day I do pull ups dips push ups sit ups squats and calf raises, hundreds of reps. No injuries lots of recovery etc. I work full time by myself and have enough time for these 10-15 minute workouts. It might sound same-y, based on the movements im doing but there are so many different ways to do it.

    I shall dedicate my next workout to the fallen drone.
    Also ever since I've mounted a pull up bar next to my desk, I've been doing pull ups, skin the cat, back lever progressions, etc. randomly throughout the day whenever I feel like it in addition to my regular workouts. I've also been doing random push up sets and the like at times. When I started working out I was so worried about disturbing my recovery that I didn't do much of anything outside of my workout sessions and that was clearly a very boring and stupid approach because at the end of the day I'm training to become better at and have more fun moving my body, why would I then restrict movement outside of my training sessions? Just one of the many detours I took on the way to figuring out the great puzzle of fitness and health.

    I have ADHD, so long workouts have always been tedious and hugely offputting. Things like running for an hour, and doing 2 hours of weights was always just the thing you had to do, but I rarely do any more than 20 minutes for anything these days, and I've seen great results (I'm 45 too).
    I think there's a macho/bragging element in that the harder something is the more manly it makes you, but shorter workouts have allowed me to keep consistency more, and that's the key.

    I recently started doing this with a 28kg kettlebell next to my desk at the home office. Start the morning with pushups, jumping jacks, and goblet squats warms me up, then just playing with the bell here and there - clean to lunge followed by a snatch to press with a hand to hand pass to switch sides keeps me moving and feeling good all day.

    I have embraced this mode of working out over the past year or so, after having been a once a day person for practically all of my adult life. What have I gained? The ability to be slumbering on the couch this minute and up and bursting in the next....like a dog or a cat.
    My workouts? Burpees, Bear Complexes, dips, chinups and stair sprints (or box jumps or skipping), planks, sledgehammer on a tyre, tyre throws and weighted carries. Any one that I feel like doing at the time, usually when I get up from my work desk (every half to 1hr). No more than 10 minutes per event. Working in a pyramid fashion to ensure a warm up for the first occasion.
    My life's fitness goals arr what I call the 3 Fs. Fit to fight, fit to flee and fit to function in a labour intensive work environment.

    Great video. I've noticed mad results too. So far this year I've given myself a challenge to complete the "bring Sally up" pushups challenge and do the whole song. and some of you may know that's an intense 1 or 2 or 3 minutes! So that's been my entire chest workout basically, and I've had wild gains in my strength. Gonna be increasing my view on other exercise types and this "module" approach is very interesting.

    When i was 16 years old this trainig trough the day worked great for me. I had my bench press next to my pc and betwenn evrey game i worked a little bit.
    Now i m 35 and started doing short workouts again. This time with body weight. One thing i can already say wich is the most important, even with kids, a wife, a house, a job and small buisnes on the side, its possible to include these short workouts into my liefe. I can fit them in every time I got a few minutes.
    Going to a gym would be near impossible to me.
    So I build my own little training place outside of my basement like you got. Also at work i can do a little bit.
    So thanks for your inspiration, after two weeks of training i already feel more fit and have definite gains.

    I've been training like this for years now due to "age" related problems such as recovery times/joint inflammation and so on (I'm 53 now). I mostly run (5 days/week), bike (6 days/week), do callisthenics (5 days/week) and core exercises in 3-4 smaller sets a day. I look like you just with less mass and feel stronger than when I was 30 and just lifting and doing bike sport. Yes, I definitely need 8-9 hours of sleep and the proper protein/nutrition but by spreading my workout times as you said in your vid I have more gains and less fu*king "age" problems. Love your vid's, keep it up! Thanks

    I love how you've added the Module training to your new training program. When I saw it this morning I get really excited to get started with the program, mainly because it seems to mimic how we (humans) would have stayed fit for the most of our history living as hunter-gatherers. I also like how I can "take" the workouts with me if I want to go for a trail run, and then stop and knock out a module here and there throughout the day. Maybe bring some rings with me. Really like the new system and it's incredibly well thought out how you've paired all the exercises together into these mini workouts. definitely the best value workout system I've tried. you cold defiantly be charging more for this and it would be totally fair.

    Best way to workout especially when rigid gym workouts are no longer feasable, flexible and sustianable. Doing a few sets here and there rly adds up over the long term and its sustainable. As a base do 2 to 4 sets of pushups , pullups , weights, squats etx on a daily basis. Ocasionally push up to sets of 10 sometimes. Then deop back. Add in cardio and stretching and your good to go 🎉

  • @corywalker8551
    @corywalker8551 2 года назад

    I love the principle of spreading a workout throughout the day like this and consistently having movement. I've been having a hard time doing it though because once I start working out, I want to keep going and do more. It's also tricky trying to schedule multiple workouts throughout the day when they would fit best with whatever I'm doing. Like today I wanted to do some arm workout but I'm going to be moving things around so I told my hours to be tired for that. Not sure if that would even be an issue but it is in my mind. The last two days I've managed to do at least one quick workout which notably improved how I felt physically and emotionally throughout the day even though each workout was like 10 to 15 minutes versus the hour to hour and a half I usually do when I exercise. Happy functional training everyone!

    Due to quarantine I split my basic gym PPL days into a outside-bodyweight and inside-weighted structure, each 30-45 mins totaling to 1.5-2h depending on the runs from where I am outside to home again -> so a quick cardio session in between. If I don't have alot of time now I can just do one of these to still get a good training in either hypertrophy or more mobility and enduranced focused based on what I feel like at that moment. Helped me alot during busy times

    I do my training like this on most days. Push ups after getting up, maybe some pull-ups. At work, I squeeze in pull-ups, pistol squads, and dips if I got a few minutes on my own. Back at home, I do weighted squads, some planks, and lift my kettle bell. It's only 20 to 30 minutes a day but makes a great difference.
