I love how these guys admit that the fast approach rarely works with overweight people ....I'm overweight at the moment and I've lost alot of weight but the best way to lose the weight is to enjoy the process
At the age of 15 I was diagnosed with A-fib, 6’0, 265lbs. Dropped about 30 Pounds every two years while focusing mostly on diet. Started regularly exercising and focused further on diet, dropped to 180-165. Started weight training this year and I absolutely love it. Weight lose is more of a self taught mental evolution, the desire and will has to be there.
Not so much desire and will, but mindfulness and skillful habits. Desire and will tend to backfire and cause needless suffering. It’s all about getting the ego out of the way and putting a stop to self-referential thinking. That’s the ticket 🎟 😎 ☀️ 💪
I've been listening to you guys for a while now and loved this video. I lost around 130 pounds myself and became passionate about helping others do the same. I take almost the exact approach you guys are talking about. Don't start off by taking away things, instead add things. This starts their journey off in a positive way instead of a negative. Then develop small consistent habits one at a time. The snowball effect takes place. They soon realize that a healthy lifestyle is something that is able to be enjoyed and not some giant chore. Kudos!!!
I've watched this video 2-3 times and every time I watch it brings tears to my eyes. I've never had a personal trainer truly care like the way you guys care about your clients. you guys are showing people the right way to go about losing weight and gaining health. After years of having a terrible relationship with food, a few months ago I started making small changes which have incredibly improved the way I view food and also improved my mood. I look forward to making more small changes over the years to get to the goal I wish to. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for instilling this hope in me that there is a better way to gain health.
Wish I saw more of these videos before I started my weight loss journey. Definitely would’ve helped. I’m Sure I didn’t do everything correctly but still lost 100+ pounds in a year.
Great insight! My first step in losing fat was speaking with a dietician. The only goal she gave me to start was to cut down on how many Starbucks white mochas I was drinking each week. One small goal. Which I crushed, and I haven't drank one of those in 2 years now.
I really resonate with the part of his story where his client decided on her own to quit drinking Soda and how great that was. I was a fat kid, and eventually I got to be like 300lbs. I told myself that I'd need to lose 100 lbs, and I think the biggest hurdle that I needed to wrap my head around was the magnitude of losing that much would surely take a year or more. It took until I had that mental part switch and accept that I would need to be motivated for a year or longer is when I finally took that first step - which I recall was taking this 12pack of Dr. Pepper cans I had and throwing them in the garbage bin outside. Almost like symbolism of giving it up to make the change. I lost 100lbs a year later and have been into fitness ever since.
I was about 60 lbs overweight at 23 years old. Finally decided that 200 lbs was not how I wanted to live my life. I told myself I’d quit snacking, and stop eating at meal times when I felt full. I almost instantly lost 40 lbs- it took just over 3.5 months. Now I’m still working on that last 20 lbs, which has proved more stubborn. My point is, start somewhere. Do something. Decide enough is enough. After you get the ball rolling and build up some confidence in your new habits then dig deeper into diets/exercise as you learn more about yourself.
great stuff - one thing ill add regarding the motivation and emotion clients come in with to want to change - yes strategy is important and that's the job as a coach to temper the approach, but also, one should never look to blunt a client's energy/motivation - one should fuel it with the fire of strategy - all work requires both energy - emotion and intellect - strategy/understanding - they must both go hand in hand - the journey of transformation should be celebrated!
lost 37 pounds since April 1st with intermittent fasting and starting a regular cardio routine, 6 hour eating window was the main thing that helped me, now that I started with some weight training an 8 hour eating window is more appropriate but fasting at least 12 to 16 hours every day is my lifestyle now, also I kicked out all bread potatoes and rice and replaced it with oats, basically a much lower carb diet than beforehand
Set timer to "Standup" every 20 minutes. At minimum, just standup. Take a few steps around the house. Wash a dish. Pickup a sock. Toss some junk mail. Look out the window. Anything will do and soon you'll be walking a few hundred steps every time you stand up. Motivation to do more will skyrocket. Try this to dig out of the food/lethargy hole.
The best advice that I got starting with the gym was “leave you pride at the door” and it really help me to go trough the all process. Also no not using the scale was hard for me but I notice that every time I use it and it didn’t mark the number I wanted I was frustrated and started to go stray from healthy food and habits. And i lear that when i have a bas day the gym really change my mind si much, after going to the gym I feel soooo much better. This video is so much help!!
I was about to post a sarcastic question about not having 3 years to lose weight as if I was waiting for a bulletproof answer and then I understood that I already knew how to lose weight. Luckily I’ve been doing so, I just wish it could be faster but I’m learning about my body. Thanks for the video.
Ugh I love them! Sometimes the hot topics make me angry and I wanna throw the phone bc I disagree. The next minute I’m cracking up in the grocery line. Fun and dynamic podcast, vids…
I was 292 at one point. I have been doing noom and working out over the past three years and I am down to 246. My goal is to keep the weight off. No point in losing the weight and then gain it right back.
That's my issue. I have lost over 100lbs three times and this is my fourth time gaining it back. I am the person who eats minimum calories to try and lose weight. When I'm stressed I rarely eat and if I do it might not be the best thing such as a bag of chips for a 24+ hour period. This makes so much sense. The funny thing is that in all the times I have lost the weight it was because I ate more, right balance and healthier, and exercised 3 to 4 days with extremely better results, as opposed to my 5-6 now with minimum results.
For me, who was 240 lbs over normal at my highest, diet has to be treated similarly to addiction recovery. Flexible dieting, 500 calorie deficits, etc. just don’t work. You have to get motivation going by dropping tons of weight within 4-6 months. The whole “you won’t keep it off” thing is true in almost every case, so using that as an excuse to not lose 20 lbs in a month if you’re over 400 lbs is stupid. It’s just not the same as a person who’s only slightly obese. I’d say start with diet alone for 4-6 months (2000 calories - they’re not exercising at ALL, so it’s fine), add walking for three months at month 6, then start lifting at 9-12 months or even after a year. The pounds have to come off bc of joints and shit during training. Mental health is the problem with people like us. Taking 3 years to lose weight is just not like any morbidly obese success story I’ve ever heard.
I was at 297 lbs I’m now at 236 all I did was cut soda and add more water I didn’t change my food diet until I noticed that I had high blood pressure. I’m still losing now at about 2 or 3 pounds a week I want to start going to the gym and get physically stronger but damn that shit intimidates the hell out of me lmao.
I am struggling right now 250 5'11 trying to get back to 190 been working out almost all my life and have been fit befor.i am now stronger then i have ever been but the heaviest also witch sucks i believe its ny eating any ideas 💡 what i should eating calories wise
I’m 245 at 6”2 and I feel I’m about 40-45 pds over weight and I don’t want to gain more fat. I used to be 185 about 4 years ago before I got a job in mortgages and just would eat out and sit all day. I’m on week 4 of map anabolic and I feel I’m getting stronger slowly but surely but I’m still 245 pds and my diet isn’t that bad I’ll have a cheat meal maybe 1-2x a week and it’s small. I think on my off days I’m going to do hiit intervals
Don’t do cheat meals bro. It contradicts the point of what you are doing, and you are still reinforcing the idea of using food as a reward/comfort, which leads to the overweight problem. Especially 1-2 meals a week, that’s very frequent in the grand scheme of things. It would be like an alcoholic rewarding themselves with a drink
I don't think that telling a bloke that has been eating wrong all his life they have to be on a diet AND go to the gym. I would say that for the first three months they focus on the diet with MINIMUM movement, going to the gym makes you mentally hungrier. Going to the gym will just add 500 or 600 calories in a 1 hour-ish session that can be easily thrown away by two slices of pizza. (Yeah maintaining the muscle adds calories to your daily budget, but again another slice of pizza and bye.) Then when they've understand that the balance between pleasure and happiness has been all the way down to pleasure all these years and that they have to compensate for their past; plus a healthy diet. THEN you can go to the GYM, all the mental strength that you gained by just adjusting to a diet will make you comply better with it and gym and diet will be dependent of each other. I think everybody is smart enough to know what to do to loose weight, and it's not a matter of a nutritionist but a therapist.
Yes. I started with 10 min a day bodyweight and walking 5 min on treadmills. Now I run 40 min 6 days a week and do 30 min bodyweight .took me a year and ahalf to loose 20 lbs .. not ready to eat clean yet but I will very soon .
I've been training for a couple of years and i have an overweight friend who asked for advice, i told him to walk more, cut out junkfood slowly because you can't cut it cold turkey, workout a little bit 3-4 times a week moderate intensity, rest don't be crazy. He decided to train 7 days a week, running like 3 times a week, cut out everything eating like salad and barely any food and not resting in between sets. He never listened to me that will power is like a muscle, now he is even heavier. He did it for like a month and burned out
For long term, cardio is definitely not what i suggest. Resistance training not only boosts your metabolism but is better for not only losing the weight, but also keeping it off.
@@christian2880 Agree with you 100% on that. I'm just generalizing for the basic population, of course, I love to lift weights. But most people don't lift weights to the amount I do. At the end of the day every person is different whether it's male, female or age, or genetics. Doing any physical activity is better than nothing.
I don't think intimidated. If it's a female, they just don't want to look buff, like a guy. Which means they aren't interested in weight training, in the long run. The rest, is for you to figure out.
That's not always true. Seeing a bunch of big muscle-y men in one place when you're out of shape and know you won't be doing the exercises right the first time and thinking they would be staring at you because you're an "imposter" is more close to the truth. If she didn't want to look "buff" she wouldn't have stepped into the gym to begin with. Let alone talk to a Weighttraining coach. I'm glad he knew exactly what to do.

Has this helped your A-fib?
How's the afib?
Not so much desire and will, but mindfulness and skillful habits. Desire and will tend to backfire and cause needless suffering. It’s all about getting the ego out of the way and putting a stop to self-referential thinking. That’s the ticket 🎟 😎 ☀️ 💪

Guys, the honestly and self reflection as trainers is really refreshing, and *SO* appreciated.
Would love to see some of your past clients appear on the show talking about their own experience, Especially the client that Sal mentioned.
Second that
Wish I saw more of these videos before I started my weight loss journey. Definitely would’ve helped. I’m Sure I didn’t do everything correctly but still lost 100+ pounds in a year.

As a former white mocha addict, I concur and salute you! 👍🏾
small goals.. got it!
I used to drink Costa coffees, there 170 calories and without the sugar! It’s amazing the small changes that can make massive differences.
I really resonate with the part of his story where his client decided on her own to quit drinking Soda and how great that was. I was a fat kid, and eventually I got to be like 300lbs.

You are on the path now mate. Just keep walking. Peace.
I need to lose about 50 pounds. I’ve been overweight all of my life. This is the most helpful and encouraging thing I’ve heard in a year
I really hope this podcast blows up, the content is great!
Mannnn I been binge watching. Learning sooo much more about health and exercise. Good content fellas

Thoughtful conversation, honestly brings some tears to my eyes, lot of empathy
Love this, very relatable
When I started with one day per week I did not imagine I’d be deadlifting a year later

Anything will do and soon you'll be walking a few hundred steps every time you stand up. Motivation to do more will skyrocket. Try this to dig out of the food/lethargy hole.

Sal really nailed this one.
Nobody is going to point out the fact that Sal looks classy af
Got 26 pound of fat to lose could do with gaining 5-10 pound of muscle mass in the process so decided to do Keto with Intermittent fasting 💪
Hows the diet and weightloss/muscle gain going?

Hey how are you doing now? Did anabolic work for you, and did you add Hitt to your training?
I need Sal’s shirt. Will it be available on the website again??
Very helpful! Thanks guys 💪

These guys don't coach clients anymore. Message @Mindpumpkyle if you're interested in coaching

You have to lift weights!
I'm a statistic
How many people are willing to take 3 years to lose their weight though

Yeah. It’s a lifestyle change
I’ve dropped 60 lbs over the last 8 months… have no plans on gaining any of it back
Congrats !
this IS why i couldn’t become a trainer... its like being a therapist
That’s why it’s called PERSONAL training
Daily cardio and caloric deficit. That’s all! Pretty simple.
For long term, cardio is definitely not what i suggest. Resistance training not only boosts your metabolism but is better for not only losing the weight, but also keeping it off.

Nope. Bro science BS. Not long term sustainable and causes metabolic problems.
I'm overweight, because my scale says I am. Not just mine. Which is interesting.
You have to develop a systematic approach across the board with obese clients. It’s all about training their mindsets; not their bodies
