+restlesswikiinfo John should make a video of the kids reacting to their videos when they're a little older. I think many nerdfigters would enjoy that very much
You are very hardcore. I borrowed my brothers copy of The Complete Works of Shakespeare. I failed miserably. On the other hand, I got to the second 0 of Pi. *high five for super hardcore nerd fitness*!!!
I'm ridiculously surprised that this video has so little views in comparison to their videos now. I mean, I know it's an earlier video, but it's one of the best things on the internet, so...
? It surprises you that an amazing author is also a normal human being? What did you expect him to be like in everyday life lol? He's not JUST an author. In fact, Vlogbrothers and nerdfighteria have existed since before most of his books were written. (I realize this comes off as kinda mean, I don't mean it that way but I just honestly don't get why this surprises people?)
Nicole Tomaszewski i already burned fat just from laughing. every time i feel like jogging but also feel that i'm too pretty for that, (haha) i visit this video. mehe
The world needs more Nerdfighter adults! I can't imagine another grown man doing any of this. What gets in the way? Pride? Dignity? Seriously, love this video, although I fail miserably at nerd fitness......(so what is the fitness level lower that that? Lunch lady fitness? Could I start there?) But don't bash argyle socks dude, I don't own anything else.
I think it's because people think that being mature and responsible also means you have to be serious. I really love Peter Pan for so many reasons BUT mostly I love it because it brought something very important to light. Adulthood is always regarded as that time when you become poised and you do all the right or correct things and it's when you stop pretending (ex. Christmas movies where the parents believe don't believe in Santa but the kids do). When I grow up I'm going to be imaginative and childlike and nerdy and crazy and youthful and energetic ALL while still being a responsible person. All the adults that I know wish they could be kids again. Everyone is so inn credibly uptight about the social acceptability of the patriarchic paradigm! The world will be a better place when we explore the world with wonder. When we can sell peeps to strangers without them wondering if it's a serial killer selling poison. When we can dance in the streets of Amsterdam and wear objects on our heads in grocery stores without it being viewed as inappropriate. :)
Haha yeah!! I really think your mindset changes when you get older, and we really need to prevent getting cranky and losing our wonderment of the small things around us. I'm with you on acting youthful. Isn't there a saying about you're as old as you feel? :D
Don't worry so have I. I remember the first ever punishment video coming up in my subscription box so I wasn't trying to be rude I just wanted to know because I've never heard them be called Nerdfighter videos
*the pigs can't catch the fox, I'm too quick* *I can rhyme while I run, I'm that slick* Disappointed that nobody said it yet. But I'm glad that I'm the one who said it.
Every time I'm in class bored I can hear the "CALL ON ME TEACHER TEACHER CALL ON MY WHY DON'T YOU CALL ON THE SMART KIDS YOU ONLY EVER CALL ON THE DUMB KIDS IT TAKES FOREVER TO LEARN ANYTHING".
Intellectual Badass I'm aware of that. I do understand the reasoning, and I don't actually believe that someone's skill at answering random questions is a measure of intellect. It's just so boring to go over the same thing for a month.
+Becca Moses I totally understand you! Having to just repeat the same information for days on end becomes rather tedious and monotonous, even when I know that it is nessesary for everyone to comprehend it. And it's not to say that they are "dumb", it's just that they have a slower cognition, are not paying attention, or that they learn though conversation or questions much better than with a lecture or a textbook. :)
Watching this piece of gold again, in tears. Really impressed with the camera work, I would not have been able to keep the cam so steady and myself so quiet. We really need follow-up fitness video. Perhaps workout for nerd parents? Thanks so much for the laughs!
I love how this guy is a well known popular/famous author and has written quite a few books which are turning into movies and we get to watch videos of him doing stuff like this
I decided to re-watch this video after John and Sarah mentioned (and smiled about) it during their "a little art / a little wine 2" livestream and, damn, I did not know how much I needed this in my life right now until I brought it back into my life. (I think might watch it again and move along with John this time!) Thank you, Nerdfightaria, this community brings me so much joy! Also, #omgthiswas10yearsago
I just remembered that your kids get to grow up with this, a video of their very own father getting 'fit', right there on the internet for every one to see. and honestly, i can not think of a better way to raise children
Watching this 9 years later again already a grown up. Thanks vlogbrothers for making my high school experience less horrible. You were the first and only people that told me being a nerd is awesome and it’s not wrong to be excited about things!!! DFTBA!!
This is a bestselling author
O
Yep
Jennifer Reeves One of the best...
God I love this guy
my friend i believe it is, best selling-author.
the teacher please call on me stretch was the perfect Hermione Granger impression John. simply perfect.
I'm surprised he didn't actually made a Hermione reference at that exact moment :p
i know right???
Rachel Roy Some of my friends call me Emilie Granger because my Hermione hand stretch is on point.
Iooh I be pumping out like it's hot
Woah
This is my favorite of all the punishments.
Dame Kellen the Brave NO THIS WASN'T A PUNISHMENT
IT WAS A REWARD
One day Henry and Alice Green will discover the beauty that is the internet. And their father dodging and deflecting a bullies punches
+restlesswikiinfo John should make a video of the kids reacting to their videos when they're a little older. I think many nerdfigters would enjoy that very much

Henry is 10 now so he’s probably seen it.
can't help wondering how much of this ensemble he borrowed from his wife
ALLLLLLLLLLLL of it
Teresa Beaumont lol. I'm thinking none.
ok i know this is supposed to be a joke, but i religiously practice this every day.
+Shel Nafbulc same
I just started doing that as well. You were my inspiration! Thanks and DFTBA
Intellectual Badass aw thanks fellow nerdfighter!
Same Pham
+Shel Nafbulc Wait, so...you're an athletic nerd?? Damn, you're better than I am :D
Recording this video is the true test of one's marriage
Fan you give the story?

Sarah Urist Green is a lucky, lucky woman.
I know right.

John green is a lucky, lucky man
I've got deathly hallows in one hand and order of the Phoenix in the other, both hardcover. I feel hardcore
You are very hardcore. I borrowed my brothers copy of The Complete Works of Shakespeare. I failed miserably.
On the other hand, I got to the second 0 of Pi.
*high five for super hardcore nerd fitness*!!!
oh my god that is incredible! i only know 50 digits....
I used the goblet of fire and city of heavenly fire.(both hardcover)💪
Um the second zero of Pi is the 51st digit?
Well I did say I only know 50
Congratulations John. You made a FUNNY exercise video!
I was skeptical but you pulled it off.
The Yeti is a rock, I only heard her laugh like once.
I'm literally doing this at the gym as a warm up and people legit think I'm crazy
The people in the gym and think that we're crazy the people in the gym think that were crazy
THE PEOPLE IN THE GYM THINK THAT AM CRAZY 🎶
Please tell me you're doing it with books too.
I WAS DOING IT BECAUSE I AM A HARDCORE NERDFIGHTER AND MY MOTHER WALKED IN
OMG. THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME.
I would exercise if John Green taught a class
I want his outfit.
it's gorgeous
Stunning.
YASSS JOHN YASSSS YOUR OUTFIT LOOKS SO GOOD!!
I never realized this was a punishment. It's always been my favorite video.
Wait, before you knew it was a punishment, what did you think it was?
Pure magic
I'm ridiculously surprised that this video has so little views in comparison to their videos now. I mean, I know it's an earlier video, but it's one of the best things on the internet, so...
834k means nothing to you???
If John Green made series of workouts on DVD I would buy them.
This is my absolute all-time favorite video on the Internet.
His outfit is overwhelmingly fierce ...
I can't wait for Henry to see this when he grows up. Reaction video, please?
watching john try to do sit ups made my life complete
Willy just being there is what makes this video so funny.
That was adorably hilarious.
This is the exact reason the internet was created, and exactly what I needed. Thank you John for the past!
Sara I am sorry you had to record this.
I would have genuinely paid all the money in my savings account to have been the one to record this, and that’s like $50.
Personally I got really into fitness after I made the connection between working out and leveling up. :D
Me: John Green is the place I go for mature wisdom
John: standing in a fox hat in green tights exercising like a madman
I just have to keep telling myself that this is the man who wrote the breathtaking novel TFIOS...
It's strange to think he wrote a normal book but is a crazy fan boy ....
Allison Thomas It's beautiful
Allison Thomas It gives me a little bit of hope, really.
yes in the books he tries to be sophisticated but its really good to know that he is as crazy as some of his fans...
? It surprises you that an amazing author is also a normal human being? What did you expect him to be like in everyday life lol? He's not JUST an author. In fact, Vlogbrothers and nerdfighteria have existed since before most of his books were written.
(I realize this comes off as kinda mean, I don't mean it that way but I just honestly don't get why this surprises people?)
I commend Sarah for lasting 6 minutes before she laughed.
I think I've discovered my new favourite Vlogbrothers video.
I still think Humping the Town was pretty great too...
@@kayleeshook1593 that video is age restricted😂😂 and I haven't verified my age on Google so I can't watch😂🥲
Some kid is bound to stumble upon this and think that it's an actual workout video
That's because it IS!!!
It is...
This is my favourite vlogbrothers video hands down
I had a really bad night, crying really hard. This cured everything. I love you, John. I love you, Nerdfighters.
:D
@@forestish how ya doing now
@@-Teague- Much better now. Still anxious but much much better!
@@forestish yayyyyyy that's great! Glad you've improved! If u need anything nerdfighteria is here 4 u ❤️
We love you too. Hope it gets better for you 🫂
I was looking for an exercise DVD. I think I found exactly what I was looking for.
John green everyone *applause*
I watched this while eating pizza and not exercising. Remember, John, this was your punishment.
Saaame
Sarah's thoughts @ 5:55 . Yep, that's the love of my life!
+Neha Kapoor I love when she starts laughing! :) "Dodge! And deflect! Dodge and deflect!" I was dying at that part!
In the English class part is he using Catcher in the Rye because he's really Holden them up
No - he's using Slaughterhouse Five, because it's the only Vonnegut.
Robert Paddock or maybe 1984 because he is doing it orwell
Nice. Could be Catch-22, since he's Heller good.
Robert Paddock Daniel Hyatt It's almost certainly Pride and Prejudice, he's being very Austentatious about the whole thing.
May I present to you New York Times bestselling author, John Green.
"Books are beautiful for reading and they are also beautiful for holding!" - John Green
I'M DYING I CAN'T I JUST CAN'T OH GOD OH GEEZ HOLEY GEORGE I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING

Nicole Tomaszewski I see what you did there
:]
THIS IS THE MOST INSPIRATIONAL FITNESS ROUTINE I HAVE EVER SEEN. THANK YOU.
re-watching this now... this could be my quarantine workout. lol
Was having a bad day and came to watch the best of vlogbrothers playlist to try to feel a little better and i definitely do now. Thanks bros.
The second one should be called the Hermione stretch.
My day immediately improved at 0:00.
As did my physical health after this video.
You know, I've watched this video like eight times, and it never gets old. John, thank you for being awesome

I thought I had seen every Nerdfighter video. How have I not seen this one?
You mean Vlogbrother's*?
No.
We (the fans) are nerdfighters... He is not a fan, but a Vlogbrother... Unless you meant a video FOR Nerdfighters but I feel like you didn't...
No meant Neardfighter.
Been a fan of the VB since the second year. I know most the lingo and in jokes. No need to explain. Thanks though.
Don't worry so have I. I remember the first ever punishment video coming up in my subscription box so I wasn't trying to be rude I just wanted to know because I've never heard them be called Nerdfighter videos
John has a fabulous pair of legs, which I'm surprised at, but happily so.
Did anyone notice the fox head band he's wearing is like the one Takumi wears in Looking for Alaska? XD
john is the effing fox nobody stops the effing fox
***** No one can stop the mother effing fox
NO ONE CAN STOP THE MOTHERFUCKING* FOX
*Running from the bully* Can't catch me I'm the the F*kin FOX.
*the pigs can't catch the fox, I'm too quick*
*I can rhyme while I run, I'm that slick*
Disappointed that nobody said it yet. But I'm glad that I'm the one who said it.
This is my new favorite video. Ladies and gentlemen, the man who wrote the book that brought the world to tears, John Green.
this is the guy who's words made me sob on a fucking bus.
Dear Henry,
This is why your father is famous to nerds everywhere.
Sincerely~
Nerfighters everywhere
This is what I needed for 2022. In these truly depressing times, 11 year old John Green workout videos bring joyful respite
Nevermind, we have Pokémon Go now.
+
+
Or at least we used to
I'm getting tired already just by watching this
Batman's just a rich guy with an affinity for bats who's playing out his insane fantasy. How is that heroic?
Magic Penguin Batman's values and actions are A reflection of our own values and actions To make the world better
jordan goldbloom Does Batman understand how difficult it is for an underfunded city like Gotham to replace roads and bridges?
Elijah Genda We see ourselves in the cracks of his façade
In his anger and frustration
Because we have all those things, too
jordan goldbloom Hank John John Hank John Hank Hank John
You got batman entirely wrong, John we are all batpeople
Can we just all take a moment to admire the outfit he's wearing.
Given that plenty of us are working out at home this year, I would really appreciate a reenactment of this including the costume. Thank you in advance
I will accept a livestream
Every time I'm in class bored I can hear the "CALL ON ME TEACHER TEACHER CALL ON MY WHY DON'T YOU CALL ON THE SMART KIDS YOU ONLY EVER CALL ON THE DUMB KIDS IT TAKES FOREVER TO LEARN ANYTHING".
Also, I think it should be required that everyone who reads TFioS watch this first for context on who John green is.
Yes, but it really helps the "dumb" kids who need the questions to review and learn.
Intellectual Badass I'm aware of that. I do understand the reasoning, and I don't actually believe that someone's skill at answering random questions is a measure of intellect. It's just so boring to go over the same thing for a month.

Intellectual Badass Oh yeah, I completely understand that. It's definitely helpful to cement your knowledge by explaining to someone else, too.
This video is such a core memory for me. I was 15.
Watching this piece of gold again, in tears. Really impressed with the camera work, I would not have been able to keep the cam so steady and myself so quiet. We really need follow-up fitness video. Perhaps workout for nerd parents? Thanks so much for the laughs!
I actually exercise to this video. It's still a good workout and it's hilarious.
Sometimes I forget this exists but then I find it again and my life is brightened.
Ahhh Willy... rest in peace, you good dog
*watches while eating cookies*
I was eating sugary lemon juice.
nerdfighter so like, lemonade?
not quite. I put like a cup of sugar into a bowl, and then put some lemon juice into it, so it was kind of like a lemony syrup.
Yikes. That sounds like diabetes in a bowl.
Probably, but it's delicious.
This man just saved thousands of lives by forcing Johnson and Johnson to allow generic TB medications
How I miss punishment videos.
Imagine your husband wearing your clothes and make a video "exercise for nerd" and you become the cameraman
damn im envious
The one and only exercise video I have ever gotten through. Thank you John. You are truly inspirational.
This may or may not be my regular fitness routine :P
omg xD
It is why you are my favourite author
This is one of my favourite ever vlogbrothers videos. This is like the third time I've seen it and it's still brilliant :')
This is one of the best things I have ever seen.
I really didn't need to see this.
I'm really glad I did.
how many of us just sat here and watched john green excise... oh i know all of us!
well I know I did :D
fingalificated As did I
John, you are a beautiful person and this video has made my day.
The argyle socks really bring the look together!
I am literally going to use this to work out from now on omfg
I've come back to this during this Quarantine2020 for some exercise I can actually manage from someone who I respect (fox hat included).
I love how this guy is a well known popular/famous author and has written quite a few books which are turning into movies and we get to watch videos of him doing stuff like this
I decided to re-watch this video after John and Sarah mentioned (and smiled about) it during their "a little art / a little wine 2" livestream and, damn, I did not know how much I needed this in my life right now until I brought it back into my life. (I think might watch it again and move along with John this time!)
Thank you, Nerdfightaria, this community brings me so much joy!
Also, #omgthiswas10yearsago
I just realized that he is wearing the fox head band. Nothing can stop the fox. John, you are awesome, and so is everyone who gets this reference.
Because noone can stop the mother effing fox
OMG! I forgot what a gem this is.
I love this one so much.
So glad my friend introduced me to these guys years ago using this video. Still one of my favorites
he should make a cd
that would be awesome
would buy
"Keep dancing, friends. Keep dancing."
I can't. I just can't.
I just remembered that your kids get to grow up with this, a video of their very own father getting 'fit', right there on the internet for every one to see.
and honestly, i can not think of a better way to raise children
Watching this 9 years later again already a grown up. Thanks vlogbrothers for making my high school experience less horrible. You were the first and only people that told me being a nerd is awesome and it’s not wrong to be excited about things!!! DFTBA!!
I love this and will do it when I desire a 10 min fitness routine.
It's been 8 years and I still use this video as a warmup before stretching 😂😂 gotta get that nerdy blood pumping!
This was one of the first videos I saw of vlogbrothers and it was when i decided that I belong here
9 years later, this still brings me so much joy
this work out was really hard to carry out because i was laughing all the way through, and laughing and sit ups dont work well together
Best fitness video. Ever.
New York Times bestselling author John Green, everybody.
11 years later this still brings me peace, joy, and deep sustaining nerdiness.
I'm sure Henry and Alice will appreciate this video Soooo much when they're older!
lisisainz imagine one of their profs. are nerdfighters the embarrassment they would have
