Just a quick comment: loved the point about cardio. HIIT leaves me absolutely destroyed. I know it's efficient, but it's not a way I want to exercise. Much prefer to go for longer at a more sustainable pace - either walking, running or rowing. Means I use up more time and I'm probably less fit overall but I've found it the best way to maintain my motivation and discipline. And I say that as someone that's now sustained a consistent exercise regime 5+ years. I guess the message is do whatever works for you but you don't have to kill yourself to stay in shape.
There are different ways to do HIIT and it sounds like you're doing more of a vo2 max type of HIIT where the work to rest ratio is similar like 30/30's. Proper HIIT is something like a 1:3 or even 1:5 work to rest ratio, so you would do 30 seconds on then 90-150 seconds off/rest. You want your HR to come back down into zone 1 during the rest period.
That's excellent advice. I am stuck in front of a computer working for 12 hours a day so I really had to start doing HIIT and I appreciate it from that point of view but the more natural thing is to just do normal movement as much as possible. Lately I'm starting to appreciate doing gardening or a bit of DIY because I'm getting things done other than exercise for its own sake.
did you consider getting a standing up desk and a walking treadmill ? i know it did wonders for people i know! they end up doing 15000 steps while working and they barely even notice it
@@franciscloutier7736 I spend most of the day drawing in Autocad so I don't expect it'd gel that well. If I could use them on a trial basis for a while that'd be cool but I've got a dining table in this room already that two people work at so I don't want to get rid it on a whim.
Just found this Channel, Ive been watching the bead for a while now. Can’t believe I didn’t find this sooner! Love you guys keep up the awesome content!
I follow a very similar plan, although my nutrition plan is very different! Excellent advise. Walk 10k steps a day, lift weights to stay strong and understand what you are eating.
I enjoyed that insight and a lot of it resonates. When i was in the work office I forced myself to go on the treadmill every other day during lunchbreak. Now I work from home I much preferring walking.
Nothing wrong with being over weight ! my grandad eat unhealthy all his life was 32stone drank alcohol every night smoked 20 a day he didn't die until he was 52 !
Adam I think you should really consider writing a book on this. Your down-playing it here, but there’s lots of us out here that could use the knowledge you have.
He works out his calorie intake over a month and judges it from there. Also works out how many challenges and what calories they are and adjusts his month to suit
Great advice Adam. We've made exercise and weight loss so complex, when at the end of the day if we're burning more calories than we're intaking, we lose weight. If not, we gain. And consistency is the key; find a routine you can do regularly and not dread (and maybe even enjoy). I can also attest as a 50-something male that the side benefits are just as important - better joint flexibility, energy throughout the day, and solid sleep at night. It makes doctor visits less frequent and more rewarding 👍.
Exactly the same for me, i lift 5 or 6 times a week and walk 7 times a week HATE cardio HIIT is hell on earth and pointless for weight loss or muscle building.
@@richardmiddleton7770 Yeah i cant believe i said that, i know that HIIT and cardio are good for weight loss although both are useless compared to diet wich is 90% of weight loss ! HIIT is hell though i really hate that, i can however do mild cardio for 30 mins after a lifting session to brn an extra 300 calories, if i can get it up to 400 4 times a week thats nearly half a lbs a week fat loss !
Speaking as someone who runs 4 times a week, more than 10k each, plus 3 strength training sessions a week and a crosstraining session on the elliptical, I can tell you this isn't entirely true. You can't outrun a bad diet and a lot of people think running immunises you from weight gain but watching and calculating your calorie needs, regardless of exercise volumes and intensity, is the single most important thing you can do for weight loss and weight maintenance.
I'm down 105~ lbs over the last year. You really don't need to restrict yourself to eating such boring food. I did that for a few months, I lost an incredibly high amount of weight but realized I'd started developing an eating disorder. Dieting like that destroys your metabolism, such a big calorie deficit is not a good thing. Nowadays I can eat junk food, do my strength training, do my aerobics, and still lose weight. The more lean mass you have the higher your RMR (metabolism). My techniques for weight loss have come full circle. I've discovered it really is just a matter of calories in calories out. There's a lot of nuance to that topic, but don't overthink it.
When you say you need 2,800 calories though, is that assuming with general activity like a walk etc? Because I worked out if I have a day where I do no activity (I do desk work) I need just 1,600 calories to sustain my weight. So I go from that base. 1,600 + whatever excercise (like running) calories I expend.
I personally just got bored of HIIT. I love cardio and HIIT helped me lose 100lbs but definitely agree on training with 70-85% effort and doing moderate amounts of cardio (:
He's being modest. This guy is shredded and jacked 165lbs with 5% body fat is 💪huge
Short anwser:
- He walks alot (he doesn't like intense cardio)
- Works out with free weights 4-5 times a week (in his home gym since the pandemic)
Thank you….bro sounds like a politician with how he answers lol
I walk like 3 hours a day. I eat about 2000 calories a day but if I am not careful I will gain weight.
His shits must me an endless hour of mayhem tho
i reckon he'd have to have 3 goes at getting it XD
Needs to be carried off the jacks when his legs go to sleep
This is weirdly one of the best workout videos I've EVER seen.
Hes so humble. He's shredded and it's from dedication, discipline and hard work
The great take away here is, "Move a bit more."

"Biceps curls are an isolation movement, dips aren't." Hahaha, so off-the-cuff correct there.
Was looking for this comment. What a legend.

He sounds like he was cool 😁
52 is incredibly young
52 is only supposed to be mid life
@@RigmorTalonbeardyep the comment is a sarcastic joke 👍
@@U4ICFatheryep the comment was sarcastic. Well done for understanding it 👍
Another great vid guys. Really enjoying these. All the best.
Adam I think you should really consider writing a book on this. Your down-playing it here, but there’s lots of us out here that could use the knowledge you have.
I might have missed it but he also fasts or drops his calories really low before and after the challenges, which he isn't doing everyday remember.
He works out his calorie intake over a month and judges it from there. Also works out how many challenges and what calories they are and adjusts his month to suit
Love these podcasts
Still hate those bloody microphones covering your faces
ARGH
He started talking about his diet and you cut him off and sent him on a tangent….
What episode is this from?
Should be titled "BeardMeatsFood On His Weekly Exercise Schedule"
changed, cheers buddy :)
Awesome the beard is a legend talks training perfect 😍

Imagine this man coming to your house and asking to use your bathroom, im sure Beard has destroyed many toilets in his lifetime 💩
Let's hide people's faces with a massive microphone. What a brilliant idea..........
yeah couldn't watch past 1 minute
This was the early days of the podcast, everyone starts somewhere. Sorry to disappoint 👌
If you're below 40 and can get your heart rate about 140BPM you are doing cardio. Cardio is not a treadmill.
This is really interesting because I've been watching the eating challenges wondering how he isn't hugely overweight 😂
Strange to hear the beard curse. Interesting to hear his insight into how he lives his life when he’s not eating piles of grub.
Exactly the same for me, i lift 5 or 6 times a week and walk 7 times a week HATE cardio HIIT is hell on earth and pointless for weight loss or muscle building.
Do more research about how to do HIIT correctly, you'll change your mind.
@@richardmiddleton7770 Yeah i cant believe i said that, i know that HIIT and cardio are good for weight loss although both are useless compared to diet wich is 90% of weight loss !

Walking is so natural and keeps burning calories after
Dips are not an isolation movement
Man I love this.
Im 5'11 and 12stone maintenance is 2250.
More bass please, I was almost able to understand their voice
But isn't the title about his exercise and not his eating habits during the week
If you run 10k 4 times a week you will never get fat
Speaking as someone who runs 4 times a week, more than 10k each, plus 3 strength training sessions a week and a crosstraining session on the elliptical, I can tell you this isn't entirely true. You can't outrun a bad diet and a lot of people think running immunises you from weight gain but watching and calculating your calorie needs, regardless of exercise volumes and intensity, is the single most important thing you can do for weight loss and weight maintenance.
Personally I stuff my face all day long and I still don’t gain any weight with minimal exercise maybe two times a week
It's about discipline - you can eat cabbage, broccoli, zucchini, etc. Put it in a pan with water and cook it. You'll feel full but have low calories.
Way too much farts from your diet! Sooner just do intermitting fasting!
@@bluenose7984 Dairy is way worse

I think he has good genetics also that helps him stay lean in addition to training.

You lost me at hello
Where is the eating schedule? Seems only Beards workout plan. Sorry not a good title.
Are you dumb? The title is exercise not eating lol
The title says weekly excercises schedule it doesn't mention food
@@wahabbiiiGGGprobably changed the title based off this comment, the original comment was from a year ago
Sorry that’s a terrible comment from you. It tells you exactly in the title what he is talking about
@@conormoncrieff5942The comment is a year old. Probably changed the title of the video bc of it.
Interviewer is such an amateur
there's so much deflection in this videoi dont know where to think thought through
You’re right. It’s boring.
Calorie cou tjng 8s a myth my mate eats vey little for months then eats loads always same weight lol
The interviewer is realy annoying to watch & listen too
beards large wife tracks his phone so she knows where he is, jealous person she is.
That's an uninformed comment.
Someone's a sad pathetic little man
Don't understand how he can be so sensible regarding move more/eat less, but still be with such a fat mess of a girlfriend
What color is your bugatti?
Why does his life bother you ?
because they're in love and it doesn't really matter. Live your life and they live therirs

Well said, if she was thin would that mean she's a better person
