I am so impressed with this. Love to see people doing these for a week. Andrew Huberman and Lex would totally exhaust me in the first hour....by I am wayyyyyyy old. Good for you. Great job
This is my favorite video you've done so far. I really enjoy Lex. Tons of great ideas and advice in this video. Thank you for taking the time to do this
OMG, i was just watching your second video ever. I have never seen you and I was totally okay with your editing, talking and overall video quality. Then I have looked at your subs and I was SHOCKED. I thought you were one of those very well known productivity youtubers like Matt d'avella, Ali abdaal, Leon Hendrix etc. but I was wrong, you're not, YET. I think you have a big potential and I think that if you don't give up, then one day you could be as good as they are. You're doing a great job, keep it up, fam 💪
I’ve now watching both these “daily routine” videos. Love them. You should do Bedros Keuillian or Andy Frisella next. Would love to see their routines broken down the way you have done with Jordan Peterson and Lex’s
good job. two things: 1. subtitles start to go crazy around 1:45, you're welcome 2. I think the idea of testing sb's routine fails at its base because it only works when it is a routine unless the goal is to try sth that can become part of your own set of habits in the future
Very much appreciate the feedback on captions. And yes, ideally people (including me) would take certain elements of someone else's routine and apply them to their own life. Otherwise it only works for the short time you're trying it.
I agree that having some spare time to creatively explore may be limited. Maybe this is allotted during the weekend times, perhaps? I was watching a video about making a comedy skit for one of my children and then ended up watching an interview with Lex Fridman (in the context of diffusing potential arguments)... then looked up his podcast and became inspired to explore the daily routine of someone this well controlled, aware and disciplined enough to interview people for understanding and communicate well. Thank you for sharing your experience in the daily routine, it was inspiring! I am going to explore this topic further!
This is so dope! I’m not familiar with your channel though I’m definitely going to watch more When did you work? Like, do you have a job to pay for (example) the gym membership or the diet. Great job man!
1 minute in, and I've watched 30mins of lex fridman videos from your clips😂 Thanks for introducing me to his different sides. Now I'll watch your routine journey
I love Lex Fridmans podcast and what he does but his routine is alien to most people because most people have 9-5 jobs, families and the usual other stuff that goes along with it. If you're one of these average people (myself included, and prob 99% of others) then comparing yourself to his routine is just depressing. Also you need to ask what 'deep work' am I doing? Lex works on robotic AI, what deep work were you even doing during this test? Were you doing robotic AI? All I'm saying is not all work requires two sets of 4 hours 'deep work', unless you're doing something as fore-front as robotics AI. What's the point of my comment? I don't know, I just hope people look at this with a grounded perspective.
I originally had a part in the video addressing this but took it out (so I very much appreciate your comment addressing it). What it said was that many people might be thinking it's impossible to follow Lex's routine for the reasons you mentioned, but that it could be adapted to fit other lifestyles. For example, the deep work would likely be replaced by a 9-5 job, and the other elements like reading and exercise could be shortened to make more time for kids, family, etc, although you still have to do them at least a little bit every day. But yes, I wouldn't recommend comparing yourself to Lex because he is much more hardworking than almost everyone else, but hopefully people can adopt certain pieces of his routine that would be helpful. To your question about what I was doing, it was mainly editing/planning for this video (which took a lot of time) as well as some other skills I'm trying to develop (like language, health and fitness research, etc).
Lex's had more structure because he walks through it in a lot more detail than Jordan does, which I liked. Overall I'd have to say Lex's because of the variety contained within it (e.g. workout, running, reading, guitar practice) while still helping you be extremely productive.
Excellent Thank you...as you have hopefully discovered adding a bit a day to a new change overtime will prevent soreness. There is wisdom in making small doable improvements daily. When I did pushups I added one a day till eventually I broke the record at the Dojo. Hard work is translated as consistent effort over time. I've completed 2 bucket lists by being focused like a laser beam. From the book Superself by Charles J. Givens. Doubling your personal effectiveness. Earning a Black Belt to Skydiving.
Im a new follower, really like your content. I didnt even know this Lex guy until now so Im gonna go check him out too but he seems pretty awesome too from what you covered.
Ben which are the 2-3 best books to read for starting as an online entrepreneur or freelancing from scratch in engineering design industry or in general to become a successful online service based entrepreneur ?
Hey Mohib. I don't have as much knowledge in books about freelancing specifically, but here's what I'd say: 1. The Four Hour Workweek is essential for any entrepreneur, especially if you're considering working remotely. 2. Deep Work by Cal Newport will help you be able to focus for long periods to get your work done/learn whatever skills you need. 3. 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing would be really good to learn how to market yourself/your skills. This will be more important long term than short term.
this routine definetely is not a fit for a father of three kids working from home, but I have some ideas on how I can adapt these principles and bring some more discipline into my day
Do you read theses that are strictly aligned to your career or any thesis you find interesting also how do you become a great reader and much better extracter of the information?
These are fun and informative podcasts, but I think you are missing a point about Lex. He is a world class athlete. He didn't start the routine that he now uses by getting up one morning and doing it. So trying to replicate the routine he has built over decades is not realistic. You make some modifications - turning Lex's six mile runs into two, for example - but a key part of what makes a routine like that work is consistency, and there is no way to achieve that in a week.
He's not a research professor at MIT stop with the misinformation. He's a research scientist, he's not even paid. May sound similar but a HUGE difference.
@@Ben.Stevenson One of the best pieces of advice I discovered was that you are always intelligent enough for your own unique purpose. If it is not enjoyable to you it isn't your purpose at the moment. The difference between forcing something or being in the Flow.

God you ruined the whole video by reading Atlas Shrugged! That book fucking SUCKS. Jk great video overall! Just read a book that will actually make you smarter next time lol!
It's very interesting to see you test the routines of great people! Your videos are very well made!
I was going to say the same, very good quality to subscriber ratio
Found this guy on TikTok, and he is crushing here on RUclips even more. Engaged me till the end! Great vid 💥
Thanks man, glad to have you hear.
RUclips > TikTok

Wow I’m surprised this video doesn’t have 1 mil+ views, it was really great keep it up 😁😁
keep doing these videos.They are a good insight in successful people's life habits.
This is my favorite video you've done so far. I really enjoy Lex. Tons of great ideas and advice in this video. Thank you for taking the time to do this
Good stuff, Ben. I like that you were able to be honest about what you liked and what you didn't. Keep it up, you're killing it.

How this video not has 1 Million views is perplexing, keep up the great work bro
One of the best channel i found recently.
That first week improvement on the nickel and dime workout was probably your mind muscle connection there.
I like how u emulated the suit lex always wears at the end

I really, really enjoyed this video. I feel so inspired. Thank you so much and keep up the hard work. You’re really making a difference!
I am waiting for your channel to explode and reach high
One of the things I never see is there is no cleaning or cooking or washing or any chores. Do people not do any of those?
I liked your video so much, great work!
also your personal advices and reflection on this routine is extremely beneficial too, keep it up!
Bro we need more videos like this
This is so dope! I’m not familiar with your channel though I’m definitely going to watch more When did you work? Like, do you have a job to pay for (example) the gym membership or the diet. Great job man!
Hey, you're making great content! Keep it going, I'm very sure that you will one day get everything you want, I can see it in you

Thank you for making these. They have been great motivator for me!
i love that Lex has a scheduled time for a random adventure to happen lol
Excellent video dude, it was greatly entraining and insightful, which are probably the best characteristics a video in this topic can have.
Hey man, I love these vids. Keep up the good work my guy
High quality video. Keep up the good work!
Well done. So.. he is a MIT prof as a side hustle 😏
Haha basically
Man’s deserves 1m+ subscribers
How did it compare to Jordon Peterson’s routine? Which one do you like more?
Lex's had more structure because he walks through it in a lot more detail than Jordan does, which I liked. Overall I'd have to say Lex's because of the variety contained within it (e.g. workout, running, reading, guitar practice) while still helping you be extremely productive.

I put the podcast on when I’m on the treadmill, hot tip 🥰
That's a stellar tip.
this is a really well put video and I'm sure you'll make it big someday
I thought i won't like this, but i do. Also checked the original video of Lex. Very inspiring and I learned quite a few tricks

It was a very interesting video. Thank you for making this video ❤🎉
Great video. Mate, hats off to you. That is supremely intense living!
I like your videos keep it up. I see your Chanel blowing up.
this routine definetely is not a fit for a father of three kids working from home, but I have some ideas on how I can adapt these principles and bring some more discipline into my day
I love this video Lex is legend and you’re becoming too
Do you read theses that are strictly aligned to your career or any thesis you find interesting also how do you become a great reader and much better extracter of the information?
You are going to get free Mars tour soon brother don't worry.
Dude this was so useful, I’m definitely going to try some of this!
Glad you found it useful bro
You are amazing but you have 7k subscribers only should have 7 f.....king billion dude
Awesome video!
“STAY HARD” 🤣🤣🤣

Good video David
great video
you help me
I feel the school
He's not a research professor at MIT stop with the misinformation. He's a research scientist, he's not even paid. May sound similar but a HUGE difference.
Can't believe I got a video recommendation, uploaded by a guy with the exact same name as me 😂
Nice to meet you good sir
Lex is quite literally the worst interviewer on the internet. That’s why we watch him 😂
no that is not true
❤❤
what work are you doing?
In this case it was a ton of editing, some schoolwork, and a decent amount of learning new skills I'm trying to work on.
Love
a great vid
Aaaaaaaaay my lady Ayn Rand getting a shout-out without ignorant character assassination! I don't believe my ears!
Try out elon musk routine too
Strongly considering it. That guys an alien though. It's basically work non-stop

"He's a research professor'' Professor at the age of 39?
Wait. Why did they do surgery on a grape?
I feel study is good
