Mr. Wildman. I've watched a lot of training videos and in my opinion, you have the most sound and practical advice I've seen. What I see is that your outstanding advice is sincere and truly meant to help people. May God bless you Sir!
Hi Mark!! If you recall I started your overweight & Deconditioned program aug 23, but was afraid to actually press play for a few months. I officially started in Nov last year often repeating, well I am here to tell you I'm on cycle 4, wk 2 of the dumbell 2 arm bat and since Nov of last year with diet change I've lost 30lbs. I still have my plantar fasciitis on my left ankle mostly, because the pain vanished on the right one. The weight loss is great but walking was something I always feared the most, it was too painful!! I started out at 15mins a couple weeks ago slow pace at work during lunch, then up to 20/30 then as of yesterday 3/16/24 I walked an hour on a treadmill at a slow pace. I'm extremely happy!. I have the 10 month prog, but I miss the kettlebells of cycle 1. My 10lbs dumbell are not as challenging. Starting weight 317.6 Current weight 285 F - 5'4/female Program - overweight & deconditioned individuals.
You are the person I want to help. Please continue. I will make more content and I will make more products until I can assist you. You matter. We can all improve. Nothing is beyond us
@@MarkWildman I've gained so much mentally throughout this process. I tell anyone who would listen, its amazing. Thank you! I comment under your videos so others can see for themselves its possible.
This is what I love about your videos and your program. You speak to the least conditioned individuals with respect and understanding while giving them a new way of thinking about what is possible. #respect
This man convinced me to get a club and a kettle bell and move my ass that was 2yrs ago. I keep a kettle bell in the kitchen it's the second thing I touch in the morning. Thank you Mark!
One of if not the best video I have ever seen that breaks down and then addresses the idea and process of RE-CONDITIONING. That is very different from sharpening up already decent condition. As someone who was once athletic, took reconditioning in youth and middle age for granted (it was easy) then was injured in my late fifties, and took a five-year break from conditioning - This advice is really excellent, well thought out, and valuable. Re-conditioning after age 60, following a five-year hiatus - is VERY different than it would have been earlier in life (for me) Thank you very much for this.
I really appreciate you bringing us this series. I have been injured and hospitalized several times and walking brought me back each time. Walking was also key to my gaining control over my blood glucose. In addition, my brother suffers from Parkinson's and other illnesses and just can't walk much of the time. I appreciate your kind approach to people who have very little hope of ever gaining mobility of any kind. Thanks.
I very rarely comment on these. But I've been over 300 pounds before. And yeah there is this fear, there is a "what's the point." JUST MOVE for 20mins. I went from over 300 pounds to being a significantly healthier weight. This particular message is 100% for people who are in that state. This message is gold for the "deconditioned." Just get up... and MOVE for 20 minutes. It snowballs into a better life.
I broke my leg and went through almost the exact same progression…and mental challenges. Great advice and program. Gains are gains…no matter how small. Goals that are attainable and trackable make for success. #getgoingkeepgoing
I am just a bit overweight but in very good shape (doing long tours up to 60 k in one day). But I know from myself how hard it is after a long illness to come back to life. Every change and new start begins in your mind, with your will and a single step. Thank you for such a very respectful and encouraging video.
That is where I started lost 35 kilos walking. Then Mark Wildman as my trainer, slowly still losing weight but have his new series and a 12 kilo kettlebell.
Mark, first I want to say I love your content. I'm 70 and suffering with an arthritic knee. Walking is not currently in the picture. Running is likely a thing of the past. However bike riding is now (and for the past 10 years) my favorite outdoor activity. I wonder if you have considered content in this arena? There is road, gravel, and mtn biking just to name a few topics (each of which could be expanded). Whether you include any bike topics or not, your content is great.
I'm nearly 60 and at times in my life I have been in exceptionally good physical condition. Recently, however, I been dealing with illnesses, primarily viruses that just will not go away and the level of deconditioning I experience is absolutely profound. Touching a kettlebell after a month off feels like I have been gone for a year. Mark, I appreciate your message - it is one of hope and starting from a very basic level, progressing gradually but consistently. Hope is such a main theme in your videos and it is sincerely appreciated! With hope, one can find the motivation and desire to begin the journey.
I think maybe my pride has been getting in the way of me taking the baby steps I need to, as you describe it, learn to succeed- teach my brain that I'm able to do things, build a sense of mastery. I'd heard plenty of similar advice; but it just kinda sounded like noise before. I think I'm getting the signal this time.
I've been working on walking for a little while now. I just went on Google Maps to create a 2.5 km walk. I'm fairly sure I've done walks this long before but I never tracked it. Starting now! Thanks for the 💡
I started walking as Mark suggested with a one minute walk and adding to it gradually. I wasn’t so de conditioned but wanted to go through the process. I worked up to 20 minute walk which I still do but have added a weighted vest to increase difficulty.
The idea of small, but regular, incremental increases works really well IMHO. I got out of shape quite badly during covid, and got back into shape by starting with 25 press-ups, sit ups and squats, and adding one each day. Did a lot of walking too.
Wildman, couldn’t help but notice your hypersensitivity while walking around in a foreign country. Are you in a witness protection program? Or a spy?? Or a warrior aware of all the evil around us in the declining world? Jk Great stuff man. Keep it up Thanks for your vids

The least conditioned among us are the most important. We all come up together
I SO APPRECIATE YOU MARK WILDMAN GOD BLESS YOU A THOUSAND TIMES OVER !SIR!

Thank you for doing the work
I appreciate the respect and help for those of us reconditioning.
Reconditioning is the most important group.

I’m trying to build a path for everyone
So respectful.
Thanks for sharing this info and the amazing scenery. Have a great St. Patrick’s Day!

💪 Yes. Perfect.
Stats for UK 🇬🇧: 65% overweight or obese; 25% obese (BMI over 30).
Brilliant advice. 👏🏻
I have to admit your scenery was amazing! Great advice
Thanks. I believe scenery matters
Wisdom Wildman, love videos!💪🏼
Great and needed approach to fitness. Thanks Mark.

Ciao Roman cats! Mark, THANK YOU for all you do. Hugs.
Brilliant video.
Rome!!!
Wise ex wild man
Thanks
Enjoy your adventures
Adventure is the most important thing in life
Hi mark
What are your thoughts on light weight super slow Clubbell movements and do they ever feature in your training regime.. thanks in advance
There is certainly a speed I consider to slow and not useful. I try to demonstrate what I consider a useful pace in most of my videos
nice forum romanum in rome
Such great information. Thanks Mark.
11: Dancing
Imperial forum, nice :)
Is seated press no longer part of the protocol?
Of course it is. Not every detail survives every edit. It’s often too much to say succinctly in every video.
Italy ?
Of course. The Eternal City innit.
Yes
Fantastic place. Great food
I wish you would clearly define "deconditioned".
Those of us that don’t start because we don’t want to start at the beginning again (Me)
Wildman, couldn’t help but notice your hypersensitivity while walking around in a foreign country. Are you in a witness protection program? Or a spy?? Or a warrior aware of all the evil around us in the declining world? Jk
Great stuff man. Keep it up Thanks for your vids
