I appreciate you guys for always hearing me out and staying so open so we can talk about things honestly ❤️🔥 I know I said I think the fitness space has been 📉 recently but I fully believe we're gonna turn it around 🙏 Love ya, stay smiling! 😆
You guys are too cute and funny together! 🥰 Would you believe, I was just wondering how to pronounce your last name YESTERDAY, lol! Love the advice on finding your significant other!
On the bright side, I've noticed that more and more, viewers are becoming more aware and tired of bad fitness content! As always thanks for being such a north star amidst all of it!
Hey Natacha, love your content and science backed approach to everything! I was wondering if you've heard of Plenity? It's new on the market and they claim their results are backed by science but who better to ask than you?! Lots of love
Where I live, a Brazilian is considered “all the way”, front and back 😅 A bikini wax is just the sides (I like the questions asked AND the answers of course 🥳)
@@Cmyers16 Yep! I'm in the UK and I've only ever seen a Brazilian as that one where they leave a sort of "landing strip" in the middle, and Hollywood is everything.
Anything body types, especially as a young female, are important to discuss. There’s such an emphasis on your outer appearance and body shape determining your value in society (unfortunately). So glad you’re touching on this as I know it’s a big insecurity of mine!!
hey Logan ❤️🔥 I really agree, I'm honestly thinking about ways to subtly undermine all the trends and pressure in all of my content and hopefully make them feel pointless but it's gonna take a lot of force. I know I've judged myself in that way through pretty much all of my teenage years and that I had to realise all the joy in movement to break free of it, and you're definitely not alone! All my love!
I'd also like to add this. Your/Our bodies change as time passes and we have different experiences, esp as women. I say this as a 30+ that has 3 kids. I used to be super sporty and into all sorts of activities. Now, 20 yrs later, my workouts and time look quite different. We really need to praise our bodies for performance, in any form. I have to remind myself that it's pretty awesome my body grew 3 babies! It may not be where I want it to, but I am thankful for my body nurturing my children and I can still keep up with them and play whatever they are playing!
@@jglassStrengthDignity it's actually pretty magical that your body grew 3 babies!! it did the most amazing things for you and for your beautiful family and I couldn't agree with you more. all that matters to me is that your workouts are working for you - keeping you happy, relieving some stress, helping with your health and it sounds pretty perfect that you've evolved them to whatever feels right now ❤️🔥 please give your little ones a hug from me, sounds like they've got an amazing mumma 🥰
@@jglassStrengthDignity thank you for taking time to give an input on this from your perspective. A huge congratulations to you for having 3 kids (I admire my mom for how hard a job it is). To have a body that can bear children is such a privilege and in an ideal world, I’d love for more people to recognize the amazement that is the human body rather than how flat a tummy is. Your comment really brightened up my day🥰
Thanks everyone! It just goes to say our goals change as we grow/mature. It always made me sad to see a parent sitting on their phone while the kids play without them. I remember one time there was little kid trying to fly a kite and the dad just wasn't healthy enough to run with him and play. I don't want to miss out on those precious moments. 🙂
when you said the thing about it hurting the first TWENTY times that was something no one had told me before. That's sorta a relief to know that it isn't just me! also love these videos
I was shocked to hear that because I never experienced any pain, quite the opposite in fact! Unless the guy was “oversized” and didn’t know what he was doing. Sorry to hear it wasn’t magical, hopefully it will get there :)
Hymen stretching: th-cam.com/video/nUjq60Gskkw/w-d-xo.html "Tenting" (how to know when our bodies are aroused): th-cam.com/video/WmZnNWtQ2DE/w-d-xo.html First time(s) could be painful for lots of reasons but at a minimum, I would hope that new people are aware that you can choose to stretch your hymen slowly and not tear it (which can take weeks, I'm not saying just do this right before.) And also know to consider whether you're attempting insertion before your body is fully aroused (especially if you are nervous.) I'm no sexologist (though the doctor in the videos above is) and I'm not going to promise that would guarantee a pain-free experience, but hopefully this is helpful.
Your "first time" doesn't have to be painful. For a lot of women it can be painful because they aren't aroused enough (and because of that they are maybe not wet enough, which can hurt) or because the penetration is too rough. I think it's important to mention this because we really need to start listening to our bodies, not only with sports but also with sex. So people: please, listen to your body. Communicate with your partner (you both need to do this!). And also: don't skip foreplay (and leg day, duh).
This this this. Thank you so much for this comment because I feel like this information is not well-known. Also, thank you, Natacha, for being open and discussing your first sexual experience.
I think it depends a lot. When I had my first time I was extremely wet cuz my boyfriend took a lot of time on foreplay and he let me manage the penetration by letting me on top and go at my own pace. I went very slowly and yet it still hurt like fuck. Like a knife when it breached.
Yes but your anatomy plays a huge role if it is painfull or not. You could be very aroused and it can still hurt because your hymen is not flexible . Some people have it flexible while some are not. Thats just genetics. I advise not to feel bad if it hurts because there was something wrong or lacking in your experience or dont feel bad if it was not painfull at all because again something is lacking in your anatomy. Every experience is different..
@@natachaoceane HAHAHA I take it back I just meant u…. Jk THANK YOU I love you guys💗💗💗 u also helped me through the worst of my ED with a super old video about metabolism by getting me into lifting a few years ago :) I’m still struggling but you’ve helped a LOT
I love how open and honest you are. You don’t avoid the “tough” questions and are so respectful with your answers, and of each other. You are truly an inspiration Natacha. My all time favourite TH-camr 💜
Natachas channel is the only fitness channel where I feel completely safe. Safe from beauty standards, safe from sexism and judgement and the normalisation of substance abuse. There is no extrem to reach, only balance to maintain and I really appreciate that. Both you and Mario have this positive energy and confidence while being honest and vulnerable in front of us. It's really nice and it's one of the few channels where being a woman is well incorporated into the content, may it be regarding relationships, sexuality or fitness and the menstrual cycle. As someone with P.E. class trauma, this content made fitness a fun and positive thing for me and something I can and should enjoy.
oh i relate to the P.E trauma. I'm glad to have found a source of information that i feel i can trust, both in the sense that i believe she knows her shit and in the sense of feeling safe from judgement and ill intentions.
You’re such a body positive figure. You slowly but surely changed my mindset and approach towards food and exercise. And my life has never been as good as it is rn! Keep coming in hot with your videos because they truly make the difference 🙏🏻♥️🥰💕🤟🏻
Best study break! ;-p However, I'm learning toxicology now so it's relevant for those toxic comments and trends lol You're one of a kind Natacha, always providing good content! xx
Hey my friend!! Ahhh toxicology that's incredible!! I've been getting so interested in venomous jellyfish lately (I got stung abroad before but then I started looking up the box jellyfish and.... I got obsessed) but I feel like I could ask you questions all day!! Thank you so much for watching and have an incredible day!! xxxx
Ugh yes!! completely agree with the fact that fitness influencers and content recently has been promising superrrr unrealistic results. SPEAKING FACTS Natacha!! I, too also find it kinda wacky (in a sad way) 😣 that people are using science in their content even though they don’t understand what they’re talking about.
I’ve been noticing the negative commentary recently (it is especially the thumbnails!) and appreciate you mentioning it. Also am kind of grateful that you mentioned sex being painful. When I found it painful the first couple times, I thought there might might be something wrong with me/ that I should just write it off. Thanks for this q&a 🙏😊
Do you think you can do an updated video on gut health? I watched your video from a few years ago but I know science can change and more research has come out. My health has focused more towards my gut this past year. Love you guys ♥️
hey Melissa! That's a great question - you're right that things have moved forward as it's become a big area for researchers! I've added it to the list and if I am able to make it happen I'll see about bringing in a leading expert on the gut microbiome so you guys can get it straight from the goats 🧠
Please do a science explained of post-workout recovery, e.g. muscle scraping, rolling out, ice baths, stretching (before or after exercise?) And everything in between!! I am so lost hahaha!
Your channel is one of the few fitness channels I actually enjoy everything from. It helps that you don't overproduce. Everything feels up to a certain quality and it's still a delight to watch. I think a lot of people make too many videos and it impacts quality or gets very click baity.
First I just want to thank you for being one of the only content creators I've found that not only creates incredible evidence based content, but also empowers and reminds viewers to critically consume information about health and fitness. A bit random in the context of the video, but I have a question/video suggestion that I would absolutely love to hear your perspective on. And I wonder if you've experienced it due to travel for TH-cam and such. I just got back from a month long trip around Europe (I'm from the US). During the trip and after arriving back home I've been dealing with a lot of bloating, stomach pain, and bathroom issues. Obviously diet was very different than usual including higher alcohol consumption, yummy carb heavy foods, less veg, lots of gelato, etc. and I'm sure water consumption was down, however, my first instinct was the diet culture I was raised on (even though weight loss isn't my concern). I instantly thought... hmm maybe a juice or colon cleanse, etc. but after minimal research it seems there isn't much evidence that those options are effective or even safe ones. A few articles said herbal teas, digestive enzymes, and magnesium are options but I'm also not entirely sure how effect those actually are. It's been several days and I'm looking to bounce back to regular gut health but it seems to be taking a bit of time. First, I'd love to know what could be some the causes of digestive shifts during traveling, second, I'd love to know more about the science (or lack thereof) behind cleanses/detoxes as a solution, and third, I'd love to hear any evidence based suggestions you have for managing travelers gut and getting back to normal as quickly as possible. Thanks again for all you do!
Honestly I’m chubby but I’m told by people that I’m not, I’ve never been skinny not since I was a little kid when I was severely underweight,I remember celebrating when I hit 61 pounds, I started gaining a ton of weight in middle school and until last year I was very unhealthy I struggle a lot with food and last summer I basically didn’t eat, I only ate when forced I lost a ton of weight and I was so happy with myself but I refused to eat icecream or sweets about 5 mounths ago I started dating a guy who I love so much and I have gained weight and I’ve started to enjoy eating agian I still struggle with body image and honestly social media has made me hate how I look I’m trying my best to be happier and healthier I just really wanted to talk about it and you guys are becoming a safe haven for me ❤thank you for making these videos! Your doing amazing and you guys are incredible people who inspire me so much! Keep rocking on
Natacha you should start a podcast that's just catered to more in-depth science discussions! Your other platforms do an excellent job discussing complex topics in a digestible way, but I would really love to hear some more in-depth science/nerding out especially in your field of expertise! You could have Mario or someone as comedic relief/someone to talk at if you want.
Sooo happy that you posted a new video! I just did one of your workouts an hour ago. I am currently in my finals week and seeing you a Mario always gives me a big smile and a warm feeling . Thank you for making me always happy ! I hope you two have a lovely night . Sending lots of love, Eliza.
hey!! ahhh good luck with finals! I remember those days and that stress tooooo well so I'm sending you a lot of love and all the luck in the world. You seem calm and composed compared to how I was so I'm feeling good! All my love back and thank you Eliza
oh dear let me tell you i can beat that awkward star meeting i work as a journalist and in my early days i was asked to interview a singer whos biggest fan i am for like ages, i had a call with the manager first and i was so nervous. Everything went alright until he said; '' were is the interview supposed to take place cause as you might know *the singer x* had an accident recently therefore shes unable to walk" i literally replied: '' oh dont worry i can take good care of old people as i have worked at a care home before 😵😄 needless to say the interview was cancelled
Hi Natacha, would you be interested in doing a fitness journey video? As someone who's built up to a consistent fitness routine and is keen to explore, your current videos are super interesting and fun but their quite hard to adapt because Im at a different point in my journey than you are obvs :) so would you consider doing a video explaining when you got into fitness, how, what you did, and then how you progressed over the years, what you focused on when, what you tried out etc? something like that? not sure if that makes sense? XD anyway, thanks for all your recent uploads, keep them coming! Hope youre doing well and enjoying your day!
This post was just what I needed to see today 🥰 I think you and Mario's advice about finding romantic partners is also really great advice to find friends in general. Thank you for keeping things real and inspiring at the same time. ♥️
Science is such a delicate tool, especially when it comes to exercise and fitness. One study can't express results for a majority of people, often factors are missing or the sample is too limited to a group of certain people. In the end, we can use studies for overviews and theoretical knowledge, but we can't use them as a "solution for everyone". It's always individual and we can gradually learn!
New video day is always the best day! I agree with your opinion on those commentary channels - especially those that use negative clickbait to entice you to watch to learn what XX is doing wrong with their diet, and then the answer is...nothing! It overshadows the good content. Anyway, you are amazing and I love everything you do and always learn so much! xxx
I've been binge watching your videos all day (home sick with covid 😭) so it was perfect timing to get this notification! I love your videos and your approach to health 🥰 You're helping me make more healthy decisions every day!
hey Sadie ❤️🔥 I am really sorry to hear that, I hope you're feeling as strong as can be and that this passes quickly 🤍 you have such a kind heart, thank you so, so much. I'm cheering for you always and am excited for all the amazing things coming your way
Natacha, you look so in your element with that sunshiney outfit :D So glad to see you so confident and relaxed while spilling the tea. Another great video.
My husband and I met on a blind date 8 years ago this year. We are not friends and never will be and we both love that. People are shocked when we tell them that. It works for us personally and we'll be celebrating 6 years married next month ❤️
Output goals- not appearance goals- are where I'm at too; I really just want to be stronger, more powerful, more proficient, more efficient and effective as a machiiinneeeee and then whatever my body looks like is just a sign poster to that
the part about people using science when trying to explain something but in fact giving completely false uneducated information is such a big problem atm. Even on tiktok, all these people in comments and tiktoks claim science as an explanation for certain exercises but in reality they looked at like only one paper out of hundreds that only tells one part of the story and usually even spreading misinformation.
I love all of your videos and find them to be incredibly informative and useful in my life. I would love to see you make a video about women and their periods. How it affects weight loss and weight gain, mental aspects, fitness and performance, etc. I suffer from having a very irregular period and feel that I stay bloated for 2 of the 4 weeks in the month. This in turn makes me feel awful about myself with weight gain and fitness performance.
I have bought Cut some time ago but I must admit that I haven't used it till now. Lately I have felt this urge to working out and I feel like my weight is definitely too much now and it can be risky for my health in the future (not gonna get any younger and I'm 32 now, so I feel like I need to pay attention to it). I have tried it for the first time this week and wow! I have felt muscles I didn't even know I had. But the good thing is that I'm really enjoying it. I didn't like to work out in the past, but now I enjoy it so much, and I love your approach about all of the process. It doesn't matter how long it will take for me to lose some kg, I just know that I want to do it and that you work helps me a lot
ahh thank you Alice!! Honestly it's kinda the only hairstyle I got apart from straight😂! I don't know how to get those big ringlet curls, every time I watch a tutorial I still mess it up or look like I belong in Bridgerton 😂😂😂
@@natachaoceane the beachy cool girl wave look never fails!! I have people telling me to spend $500 on a famous hair dryer that im literally going to have no clue how to use so... simple and easy is best for me too.
Hah loved this so much😅 I was wondering if you would ever do a video focusing on cardiovascular exercise- if/how much; whether it interferes with metabolism and/or muscle growth; how to utilize or not utilize for fat loss; and the mental health/systemic physical health benefits of doing so? I am trying to break out of a common belief in the fitness space that cardio is bad and leads to quick weight loss and metabolic slowdown/ weight gain/muscle loss in the longterm. Love all your content!🧡
heyyyy! ok I'm gonna try, I'm trying not to burn out so I can really keep going without needing a break cause you guys are my happy people. Appreciate you always!
I really enjoy listen to you, but would looove to see some full workouts again to follow. maybe something from home for just upper or just lower body. yes? yes? :D Its long time ago, isnt it? :P Let's exercise together.
You are an inspiration for me, and I'm sure for many others as well, to be HEALTHY. Of course I still feel like my outer appearance could be more aligned to today's beauty standards, but recently just doing my best to take care of myself in a healthy way has been more than enough. My partner loves me without caring if I have a little bit more tummy or not, so, who cares? I'm just a girl, looking at her body, trying her hardest to have a good balance between body fat and muscle.
hey Nadia! 🙈 doing your best to take care of yourself in a healthy way is amazing!! you're already doing pretty perfectly and you sound like you're surrounded by love ❤️🔥 you've already won 😆 proud of you and I hope you stand strong against that pressure and do whatever feels like living fully to you!
Around here... Brazilian is ALL of it. I worked at several spas and "Brazilian" was always bare, whereas "Bikini" is the "neatened up" version you speak of.

Obviously diet was very different than usual including higher alcohol consumption, yummy carb heavy foods, less veg, lots of gelato, etc. and I'm sure water consumption was down, however, my first instinct was the diet culture I was raised on (even though weight loss isn't my concern). I instantly thought... hmm maybe a juice or colon cleanse, etc. but after minimal research it seems there isn't much evidence that those options are effective or even safe ones. A few articles said herbal teas, digestive enzymes, and magnesium are options but I'm also not entirely sure how effect those actually are. It's been several days and I'm looking to bounce back to regular gut health but it seems to be taking a bit of time.
First, I'd love to know what could be some the causes of digestive shifts during traveling, second, I'd love to know more about the science (or lack thereof) behind cleanses/detoxes as a solution, and third, I'd love to hear any evidence based suggestions you have for managing travelers gut and getting back to normal as quickly as possible.
Thanks again for all you do!
Merci tellement Natacha pour tout ce contenu FANTASTIQUE! xxx btw ce cardigan jaune te va siiii bien!!
merci Alexia!! C'est trop gentil ❤️❤️❤️ Le haut vient de Saboskirt 😍 j'adore leurs habits!! 😍😍
Honestly I’m chubby but I’m told by people that I’m not, I’ve never been skinny not since I was a little kid when I was severely underweight,I remember celebrating when I hit 61 pounds, I started gaining a ton of weight in middle school and until last year I was very unhealthy I struggle a lot with food and last summer I basically didn’t eat, I only ate when forced I lost a ton of weight and I was so happy with myself but I refused to eat icecream or sweets about 5 mounths ago I started dating a guy who I love so much and I have gained weight and I’ve started to enjoy eating agian I still struggle with body image and honestly social media has made me hate how I look I’m trying my best to be happier and healthier I just really wanted to talk about it and you guys are becoming a safe haven for me ❤thank you for making these videos! Your doing amazing and you guys are incredible people who inspire me so much! Keep rocking on
My friends and I love watching your videos together! So excited to watch this! You're such an inspiration! ❤️
ahh thank you so much Lisa!! Please say hi to all your friends too!! 👋👋👋 from me and Mario 😘😘😘😘
Natacha you should start a podcast that's just catered to more in-depth science discussions! Your other platforms do an excellent job discussing complex topics in a digestible way, but I would really love to hear some more in-depth science/nerding out especially in your field of expertise! You could have Mario or someone as comedic relief/someone to talk at if you want.
Sooo happy that you posted a new video! I just did one of your workouts an hour ago. I am currently in my finals week and seeing you a Mario always gives me a big smile and a warm feeling . Thank you for making me always happy ! I hope you two have a lovely night . Sending lots of love, Eliza.
hey!! ahhh good luck with finals! I remember those days and that stress tooooo well so I'm sending you a lot of love and all the luck in the world. You seem calm and composed compared to how I was so I'm feeling good! All my love back and thank you Eliza
@@natachaoceane Thank you so much for answering to me and saying all those things. I definelty feel all the love^^.
You guys are such lovely people, you just radiate positivity and realness. I'd listen to you talk for hours!
good lord! Natacha, I admire so much how you zip away the noise and continue on, you are so smart & produce truly valuable content so thanks man!
oh dear let me tell you i can beat that awkward star meeting
i work as a journalist and in my early days i was asked to interview a singer whos biggest fan i am for like ages,
i had a call with the manager first and i was so nervous. Everything went alright until he said; '' were is the interview supposed to take place cause as you might know *the singer x* had an accident recently therefore shes unable to walk"
i literally replied: '' oh dont worry i can take good care of old people as i have worked at a care home before 😵😄
needless to say the interview was cancelled
This actually killed me 🤣🤣
Hi Natacha, would you be interested in doing a fitness journey video? As someone who's built up to a consistent fitness routine and is keen to explore, your current videos are super interesting and fun but their quite hard to adapt because Im at a different point in my journey than you are obvs :) so would you consider doing a video explaining when you got into fitness, how, what you did, and then how you progressed over the years, what you focused on when, what you tried out etc? something like that? not sure if that makes sense? XD anyway, thanks for all your recent uploads, keep them coming! Hope youre doing well and enjoying your day!
OMG the old green 🤣 you are too freaking funny
I see Natacha, I click and play ASAP. Didn’t expect her to say “cojones” today though. 🤣
you rock Steve 🤟🙌
@@natachaoceane Right back to you. Keep up the good work.
You both are just a joy to watch, so funny and you genuinely seem like such good people, love it!
This post was just what I needed to see today 🥰 I think you and Mario's advice about finding romantic partners is also really great advice to find friends in general. Thank you for keeping things real and inspiring at the same time. ♥️
Science is such a delicate tool, especially when it comes to exercise and fitness. One study can't express results for a majority of people, often factors are missing or the sample is too limited to a group of certain people. In the end, we can use studies for overviews and theoretical knowledge, but we can't use them as a "solution for everyone". It's always individual and we can gradually learn!
This was a fun one!so fun to “hang” with you two! Girl, can you do a study tips vid?
New video day is always the best day! I agree with your opinion on those commentary channels - especially those that use negative clickbait to entice you to watch to learn what XX is doing wrong with their diet, and then the answer is...nothing! It overshadows the good content. Anyway, you are amazing and I love everything you do and always learn so much! xxx
Ahh day made! You and Mario never fail to make me smile 🥺🤠
🥺 you're so cute, it means a lot that you're smiling!
I've been binge watching your videos all day (home sick with covid 😭) so it was perfect timing to get this notification! I love your videos and your approach to health 🥰 You're helping me make more healthy decisions every day!
hey Sadie ❤️🔥 I am really sorry to hear that, I hope you're feeling as strong as can be and that this passes quickly 🤍 you have such a kind heart, thank you so, so much. I'm cheering for you always and am excited for all the amazing things coming your way
@@natachaoceane Thank you for such a lovely reply, that's made me really smile 🥰
Your videos always make my days better! I love you!!
that's all I could ever ask for!! Love you back!! xxx
I’ve been watching you for years and you are just truly such an amazing person!
The vulnerability in this video is refreshing ❤️
❤️🔥🤍❤️🔥 you guys have big hearts and are really open minded so being open always feels easy. thank you for that.
@@natachaoceane thank YOU ❤️❤️❤️
I adore your videos and your honesty. I am trying to lose weight again in my 30s and I enjoy the science backed information.
Love these type of videos from you! it's always really entertaining to watch you and Mario☺️💗
thank you so much Elli (: he brings out the best in me ❤️❤️❤️
"where's your tongue"
"in my mouth"
Why are you two perfect. 😂😍
So excited to watch!
thank you Rachel!! All my love!! xx
Natacha, you look so in your element with that sunshiney outfit :D So glad to see you so confident and relaxed while spilling the tea. Another great video.
you guys are just a joy. thanks for posting on my birthday! i recognise that probably wasn't deliberate but what a treat for me!
My husband and I met on a blind date 8 years ago this year. We are not friends and never will be and we both love that. People are shocked when we tell them that. It works for us personally and we'll be celebrating 6 years married next month ❤️
Pleeeeaaaaseee more of this chit chat sit down kinda video, love the feeling of talking to you two xoxo
LOVE it. love the commentary on the fitness space too
That Outfit is beyond gorgeous!!! ♡
Your voice is even softer in French!
This was brill! Thank you Natacha & Mario! 🙌💛🔥
Output goals- not appearance goals- are where I'm at too; I really just want to be stronger, more powerful, more proficient, more efficient and effective as a machiiinneeeee and then whatever my body looks like is just a sign poster to that
Thanks for making mh day Natacha!! 💗
you're too sweet thank you Dimitra!! Sending you so much love!!❤️❤️❤️
the part about people using science when trying to explain something but in fact giving completely false uneducated information is such a big problem atm. Even on tiktok, all these people in comments and tiktoks claim science as an explanation for certain exercises but in reality they looked at like only one paper out of hundreds that only tells one part of the story and usually even spreading misinformation.
Absolutely loved the questions! Glad you guys decided to answer these, just cause they were different and edgy. nice to learn different sides of you
i've been following your cut 2022 program and i absolutely adore it! thanks so much for the hard work
I love all of your videos and find them to be incredibly informative and useful in my life. I would love to see you make a video about women and their periods. How it affects weight loss and weight gain, mental aspects, fitness and performance, etc. I suffer from having a very irregular period and feel that I stay bloated for 2 of the 4 weeks in the month. This in turn makes me feel awful about myself with weight gain and fitness performance.
you get more and more mature and knowledgeable every video i love itttt. hope u have an awesome day girl
so happy to see a new video !! 🤩
😘😘😘😘
I have bought Cut some time ago but I must admit that I haven't used it till now. Lately I have felt this urge to working out and I feel like my weight is definitely too much now and it can be risky for my health in the future (not gonna get any younger and I'm 32 now, so I feel like I need to pay attention to it). I have tried it for the first time this week and wow! I have felt muscles I didn't even know I had. But the good thing is that I'm really enjoying it. I didn't like to work out in the past, but now I enjoy it so much, and I love your approach about all of the process. It doesn't matter how long it will take for me to lose some kg, I just know that I want to do it and that you work helps me a lot
Natacha you are such a great content creator, i love every single one of your videos and yours and Mario's personalities. Great video as usual! ❤️
you guys are the sweetest! all the best!
You’re my absolute favorite! I just adore you & Mario. 💗💗
I am from Spain and I can say that you pronounse COJ*NES very well😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
my aunty is Spanish so it's a word I hear often for some reason 😂😂😂😂
Your dog choices are perfect. Also I have a corgi and a dachshund mix, both are angels you will not be disappointed with either.
🥹🥹🥹😍 you have both haha! wow
I feel like the next body trend is showing the diversity of bodies we can have. And I'm sooo here for it!
That sounds amazing to me, that one I’ll get behind! 🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️
Ahhhh! Great video, love you both. Also your hair has been looking so good.
ahh thank you Alice!! Honestly it's kinda the only hairstyle I got apart from straight😂! I don't know how to get those big ringlet curls, every time I watch a tutorial I still mess it up or look like I belong in Bridgerton 😂😂😂
@@natachaoceane the beachy cool girl wave look never fails!! I have people telling me to spend $500 on a famous hair dryer that im literally going to have no clue how to use so... simple and easy is best for me too.
I love those video your answers are always so genuine and I love that your content is science based
Hah loved this so much😅 I was wondering if you would ever do a video focusing on cardiovascular exercise- if/how much; whether it interferes with metabolism and/or muscle growth; how to utilize or not utilize for fat loss; and the mental health/systemic physical health benefits of doing so? I am trying to break out of a common belief in the fitness space that cardio is bad and leads to quick weight loss and metabolic slowdown/ weight gain/muscle loss in the longterm. Love all your content!🧡
i would like to see more about finances from you guys. you look so well informed! also love this type of videos, can't wait to see more! XOXO
I love you and Mario!! Please post more if yall can and have time! ❤️❤️ favorite fitness youtuber
heyyyy! ok I'm gonna try, I'm trying not to burn out so I can really keep going without needing a break cause you guys are my happy people. Appreciate you always!
These are some well-adjusted people!
Mood boosted and feeling better about myself after this video❤️
The weed part cracked me up. I love you two.
Whenever I watch your videos, my mood gets elevated instantly, it just does. I like it a lot 😂
You’re amazing Natalia, thanks for saying that. It’s so sweet 🐥 I hope that good mood stays for a long time!
i love that she doesn't forget the "i" in i love you :')
I love that you trash the dodgy brands 😂 👏 👏 the world needs more you. Thanks for entertaining me while I work!
I really enjoy listen to you, but would looove to see some full workouts again to follow. maybe something from home for just upper or just lower body. yes? yes? :D
Its long time ago, isnt it? :P Let's exercise together.
hey Eileen!! It has been a while!! I'll see what I can do 😘😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️
Yes please!!! I miss the follow along workouts 🥺
I’m so here for this!! 👏🏼✨
Matcha hahahaha! I love you both so much! Best content always.
hahah that green green vanilla 💨
The funniest & genuine couple on TH-cam 🥲🧡
🥺🥺🥺
You are an inspiration for me, and I'm sure for many others as well, to be HEALTHY. Of course I still feel like my outer appearance could be more aligned to today's beauty standards, but recently just doing my best to take care of myself in a healthy way has been more than enough. My partner loves me without caring if I have a little bit more tummy or not, so, who cares? I'm just a girl, looking at her body, trying her hardest to have a good balance between body fat and muscle.
hey Nadia! 🙈 doing your best to take care of yourself in a healthy way is amazing!! you're already doing pretty perfectly and you sound like you're surrounded by love ❤️🔥 you've already won 😆 proud of you and I hope you stand strong against that pressure and do whatever feels like living fully to you!
22 minutes just flew by! 🖤🖤🖤
Mom is back!
😘😘😘😘😘
Always love both your vibes! Best TH-camr
I could listen to you guys all day 🫶🫶🫶
man it would be so fun to have a big meetup and just hangout all day 👀❤️🔥
The surprise on his face when she said it hurt the first 20 times oooooooof
The thought of Natacha smoking a fat joint is just so out there to me😂 put some sunglasses and chill with Snoop lol
I love your videos!! You’re so real and a breath of fresh air ♥️
Q&A’s with you two are my favs😁
I love you so much Natacha!!!! Your channel is amazing.
Around here... Brazilian is ALL of it. I worked at several spas and "Brazilian" was always bare, whereas "Bikini" is the "neatened up" version you speak of.
