We need more people like this telling us truth! Just finished reading The 23 Former Doctor Truths by Lauren Clark. Its fascinating what they hide from society.
Haven't read the book, but going to their website they have a testimonial by a Dr Grant, whose photo just happens to be the actor Jimmy Smits! So I'll go ahead and call BS on the book if the website itself already looks like a scam lol.
Played rugby for 20 years….Love your content….I was primarily a powerlifter throughout my life….Now in my 60’s I have gone with a 10, 20, 30 cycle four to five times a week….10 minutes of stretching, 20 minutes of kettle bell and 30 or more minutes of walking….lost 12 pounds in 5 months…I also do intermittent fasting….5’ 11” and 214 pds now and have a very lean look….honestly the only small amount of fat I have is in the lat area…working on it but that last bit is the hardest…
I agreed that the last point is the most important. Thanks for this video. I am preparing for a family reunion, so all this tips will help me to feel my best😊
Therapy changed my life!! And while I may be "fixed," I still see my therapist once a month. Therapy is not just for those with deep seated mental health issues; we can all benefit from it!!
A method that works for me is eating small meals every 4 hours up to 6-7 meals a day and cycling plus light weight training. I am a disabled veteran and I’m now back to Marine Corps weight standards. Last time I weighed that amount was in 2008. Diet had to be healthy and balanced.
It's true! Once I decreased my cardio, I lost the weight! I was doing way too much cardio until I pulled my hamstring and groin. I had to stop doing cardio and could only do weights and that's when I lost the weight! Once I healed, I didn't go back to doing a ton of cardio and the weight had stayed off by doing just a little cardio and my usual weights
One of the best pieces of advice that I received on exercise is three things: (I got this from a doctor at Stanford) 1) do not spike dopamine right before a workout. don't get all nervous and pumped. 2) raise dopamine evenly during exercise by enjoying the process. focus on the process of exercise, not the outcomes. that avoids spiking dopamine and cortisol. but, still push yourself. see how much you can do - but in a fun way. 3) don't take in alcohol, porn, or binge-watching TV --- those things also spike dopamine. I started just enjoying the exercise and doing fun things. Adding a ruck to my workout has led to some really fun workouts. And I've done some hikes that I would never have done when I was focussed on outcomes. Find something fun that you really enjoy. last winter it was x-country skiing. this winter, I'm going to travel some. and don't focus on outcomes.
if anyone here listens to or watches ali abdaal, his recent dopamine video (and the longer podcast ep with it) goes into this exact topic in detail! it was a really interesting and educational listen :)
Health is not all about fat reduction and being on the move all the time. Obviously strengthening your body first with exercise and high quality diet is the key to keep unnecessary weight off permanently. If you hurt yourself because of a weak body, that's never going to help with the fat composition thing.
At least 60-120 mins per week, also at least for 20 minutes with 20 minute breaks. Seems to be the most ideal or optimal FYI or pro tip, make sure to drink at least half your body weight in oz of water or 2/3 (.66) is best. (W x .66= Oz of water). Hope this is helpful! Can also look up ice bathes or cold showers help your body too!
Most people concerned with their weight have probably been dieting for years. That means a lot of them are under eating. When weight loss stalls the first thing to check is make sure you're eating enough. There are countless people who have stalled at eight hundred calories a day.
I heard a lot of arguments that would give merit to the 'Grease The Groove' approach ^_^ You'd only need to dial back if you are doing an intense hour blast where you fatigue yourself for the whole day... ;)
If a person, especially, a woman has dieted most of their life and yo-yo'd, the metabolism is shot. One may lose 10 pounds but if youre not consistently decreasing calories until your practically fasting and increasing calorie burning, that 10 pounds will come back. There is really nothing anyone can do once metabolism is severely compromised.
It can change, but very slowly at first, & usually the first focus has to be simply on regular ie, 3x daily, high density lowish carb nutrition, with a moderate overnight fast. Hydration, & moderate daily activity increasing strength. Health basics first. Once health gains are kicked in & stable, Weight loss much later.
This is where reverse dieting comes in. You actually have to purposefully gain weight. This has to be done with clean food, not junk though. You also have to resistance train at the same time and do more low intensity cardio. Stay away from high intensity long duration cardio.
Not usually a good choice. Liposuction lowers the number of fat cells you have, which is not what you want to do. You want to reduce the size of your fat cells, not how many you have.
Do a presentation on how do do this when working 9 hours day and then shop food pick up kidds make food help with homework and then take them to sports then supper putt them to bed 😅, i do 12000-17000 a day with no training
There's no such thing as too much cardio, just too much high intensity cardio! Athletes train 20 hours a week but at least 80% is low intensity in zone 1-2 (5-6 zone model). NEVER CONFUSE QUOTED 'ZONES' WITH THE 3 ZONE MODEL! The 3 zone model is based on blood lactate levels which you can only know from getting a lab lactate test. When you hear "zone 2" it is always from the 5-6 zone model and is always refering to low intensity, like, just above your walking heart rate by around 20 beats.
Bro literally been confusing himself with same confusion lol at this point, we all know it’s matter of applying the simple rules, don’t over eat.here I saved u so much trouble
The closest thing to a review of sauna blankets I found was Swell Score, the cheap ones apparently don't work and one reviewed brand gives off high EMF and formaldehyde gases via flame retardant chemical components. Where is the data that sauna blankets work?
You don't count the age...way more difficult after 45 years old... I was able to control my fat until turning this age point...not sure why such big impact even do I am one one meal a day. And no carbs... stubborn fat gained from my past vacation doesn't want to leave me anymore... unbelievable how age affect the loss of stubborn fat even if I walk 20 to 30k step per day....and I am 100% natural never took any PED or creatine or protein milkshake only real food intake with bunch of meat and broccoli and spinach and only one fruit per day...lemon is my favorite...anyway age sucks when you are 100% natural...without any vitamins in pills or others substances...
I find periodic 72 hour fasts really dislodge a stubborn plateau. And a lot of people who find their weight won’t budge do ADF (alternate day fasting). I do a relatively high protein diet when I’m not in the fasting window and stay hydrated. Colleen Marie Cares TH-cam channel has a lot about ADF and a community you can join to get feedback and help with the process.
U lift? If not then start - if you do then change it up significantly if you’ve been in a rut - that helps me. And making sure sleep, stress, sauna are all dialed.
Just hit 23 HSPUs starting at 3 HSPUs just one month ago. Using the 'Grease The Groove' method. Great for fat loss and muscle gains! I'm 42.5 yrs of age ;)
NO SAUNA! I hate them. I mean really, really hate them. I can not for the life of me understand how ANYBODY could find it relaxing! It's a full-blown panic attack in less than 2 minutes for me. Maybe it's because I almost died of sun poisoning (i.e., heat stroke) when I was a kid. Gonna hafta find a better way.
Have to raise a brow at my Boy Tom. Don’t get me wrong, love his delivery content. But these commercials in between get me. Especially ones that push and pry above the “real” Content”. Ben Greenfield lost credibility for him endorsing some phone add on to turn away harmful radio waves……
I have always pondered why ALL of these influencers preach the law of thermodynamics as gospel truth, but, feel compelled to explain plateaus? Plateaus are PROOF that the law of thermodynamics is either flawed, or not applicable to human bodies. Sorry, but you can’t have it both ways. Stop preaching about the law of thermodynamics and maybe I’ll listen to your opinions on how to break a plateau.
It is incredible how ur able to pump daily content out like this Always learn something given your pragmatic approach

Which country are you from?
Appreciate you so much, Thomas. Thanks! Would you please consider doing something on DMSO, Dimethyl Sulfoxide?
I agreed that the last point is the most important. Thanks for this video. I am preparing for a family reunion, so all this tips will help me to feel my best😊
Great video today. Informative, and concise.
This is all excellent advice!
Therapy changed my life!! And while I may be "fixed," I still see my therapist once a month. Therapy is not just for those with deep seated mental health issues; we can all benefit from it!!
Therapist (the-rapist)

Im a counselor and coach. I agree with you. We can all benefit from it👊🏻

After 18m on keto with IF and many if your other tips my mitochondria is on fire! I can go for a run then the gim and still feel like yoga in the eve
👏👏👏👏👏 sooooooooo great that you spoke about therapy and awareness!!!!!!!
very good tips, thank you
Reflective mindfulness is powerful. & Therapy, also, provided one engages with a reputable therapist.
A method that works for me is eating small meals every 4 hours up to 6-7 meals a day and cycling plus light weight training. I am a disabled veteran and I’m now back to Marine Corps weight standards. Last time I weighed that amount was in 2008. Diet had to be healthy and balanced.
Thank you so much for stating that cardio definitely has its place.
Knowing the why is essential to owning the why and making a lasting change. The success of all the other tools rests on that.
It's true! Once I decreased my cardio, I lost the weight! I was doing way too much cardio until I pulled my hamstring and groin.

Once I healed, I didn't go back to doing a ton of cardio and the weight had stayed off by doing just a little cardio and my usual weights
Thomas, I'm at my target weight(180 from 240), listening to you. How do I get rid of this flab?
Rugby!!!???? Yesssss! At last a real sport!! South African here so for us it is everything!
Hey fellow South African

Love the idea of love the process for avoiding dopamin spike. It actually is the hardest part

Could you please put a link up for cats doing backflips into jello? I haven't seen that one.
It’s Friday. This week I logged 64,416 steps. Mostly at my day job but I had Thursday off and on that day I still got 8,390 🎉 I’m 55 and no meds
Last tip is most important.
What are your thoughts about the Carnivore Diet?
He has videos on this
Your final tip in the video - yes! The big shift for me: You must love yourself at every level.
Health is not all about fat reduction and being on the move all the time. Obviously strengthening your body first with exercise and high quality diet is the key to keep unnecessary weight off permanently. If you hurt yourself because of a weak body, that's never going to help with the fat composition thing.
I have a small apartment that stays clean what extra movement can I do 😅
Yes to all the above ❤
How long do I need to sit in the sauna
At least 60-120 mins per week, also at least for 20 minutes with 20 minute breaks. Seems to be the most ideal or optimal
FYI or pro tip, make sure to drink at least half your body weight in oz of water or 2/3 (.66) is best. (W x .66= Oz of water).
Hope this is helpful! Can also look up ice bathes or cold showers help your body too!
The link didn’t work to the intense red light thing
Happy to be from Finland, I wanna go to the sauna with Thomas 😅

Thomas played rugby, were did he pick that one up, don't imagine you do that in Scholl in the States
I heard a lot of arguments that would give merit to the 'Grease The Groove' approach ^_^ You'd only need to dial back if you are doing an intense hour blast where you fatigue yourself for the whole day... ;)
I've started working out in the evenings then have a nice shower after and a protein shake go to bed 2hours after.
12:43 🙌

Building muscle through weight training and high protein diet will help because that extra muscle will boost the metabolism
What about liposuction?
Not usually a good choice. Liposuction lowers the number of fat cells you have, which is not what you want to do. You want to reduce the size of your fat cells, not how many you have.
Dude Thomas, forget the fancy lasers and eat that beef heart fat cap to heal your joints.
Makes me hesitant with his product plugs because he has always said the best thing for anti-inflammatory is turmeric
You are supposed to verbally disclose that something is a sponsored ad as well, not just put text on the screen
Do a presentation on how do do this when working 9 hours day and then shop food pick up kidds make food help with homework and then take them to sports then supper putt them to bed 😅, i do 12000-17000 a day with no training

My natural glucagon levels are so high that I have to force myself to eat. I don't need GLP1s!!
I just rotate my fasting every week. It works.
Could you explain how you do it? Thanks 😊
Bro literally been confusing himself with same confusion lol at this point, we all know it’s matter of applying the simple rules, don’t over eat.here I saved u so much trouble
Therapy should have come first because its the only reason people dont loose weight
how old are u TDL? if i may ask. are u on trt? if i may ask as well haha :D

In sauna, do not take your phone with you. Sauna is a place to rest and relax your brain also.

Sounds like me. I’m low carb but don’t check ketones but my belly seems impossible to get as lean as I like
❤❤❤
Yes Thomas, you've learned a lot about weight loss plateaus, but you still haven't learned how to use the word 'literal'. Killin' me, Smalls!
