“gym routine” obviously isn’t working
After all the drama he has gone through recently (some of it self inflicted), all he should do is focus on the gym and the diet, take a break from social media and come back showing off his gains
Nice to see a fella who's come out of his shell, and really changed his life, but it's crucial he doesn't go off track. He needs to be careful.
Hopefully he won't be swayed onto the gear like the influencers he has hung around with are on.
@@chrisbfreelance 100%, I obviously don't know him personally but I wouldn't imagine he has the best advisors around him, as we wouldn't be that bad to start with if they were any good, so he really needs to avoid the gear and them onlyfans girls, or it'll all come spiralling down.
This aged well
@@maxslotover7056 😂😭unbelievable.
this did NOT age well
Loved this ,I’m only just starting out in the gym and am an introvert so I know how it feels. Jack should be extremely proud of his self !
He comes across completely different here compared to the tiktok i like this side of him
He comes across very arrogant on Tiktok... i just watched his live with Josh Barlow and he was unwilling to take any advice and really tested his patience, i miss when Jack would just post lifting content but the fame has got to him
@@Rexmex9 I saw the live too I think maybe too much is happening at once and like maybe he doesn't know what to do idk I'm confused because here and in some other videos he comes across as really nice he's really easily led on by others though is he young too so hopefully he changes and matures more into a decent person
@@Jburnsey26 i think deep down he’s a good person
Well done Jack, be real and yourself cos it’s amazing dude! Refreshing to see someone real and normal rather than all these false instagramers posting false photos making others feel depressed!! I💉
Great podcast! It's so good getting to know more about Jack, he inspires me a lot and deserves success. Thank you Ruby.
That was my aim! So glad you enjoyed it ☺️
Well played Jack.
You are a massive inspiration to people who are starting out and a reminder to so many to enjoy the journey.
Keep on pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and that confidence will grow 💪🏻💪🏻.
Great questions Ruby, I think you did a good job making Jack feel comfortable in the interview.
Thank you- so glad you enjoyed the podcast
Love when jack is honest and authentic like this. Been following his journey since the start and it’s been inspiring seeing his come up . Much respect jack, keep pushing 👊🏾
He’s come a long way!
Yo, really liked this podcast. I don’t think the haters would hate if they saw this podcast 🙌. But, Jack if you see this, I would definitely recommend powerlifting - I saw your 100kg deadlift tbf that was quite impressive for someone your bw. The good thing about powerlifting is that it is much easier to see progress. For example, u could increase a lift by 10kg in a month - however it may take you 3 months or more to see a big difference in muscle mass. Also, as powerlifting is in weight classes - u could become v impressive as a lighter weight powerlifter. Whereas when pursuing purely bodybuilding - u would probably have to put on 20kg of muscle to become impressive.
Ruby seems to be a super chill person!
😎
This is the jack we love❤ good on you man. And love this chilled polite podcast
Just subbed hope to see you grow exponentially your consistency will pay off.
Great episode! Really interesting getting to know this man
Thank you! Couldn’t agree more
Thanks for having me on! Great to share abit more about myself 😊
Was a pleasure , really enjoyed chatting with you ☺️
Jack is the bestttt
You need to show more of this side on your social media...for some reason you've become incredibly arrogant,ignorant and a know it all when you've been lifting for 5 minutes.
That's why you get so much hate, because of your attitude and your unwillingness to learn.
Don't call me a hater, he needs to hear the truth instead of everyone treating him like a big baby.
You’re a good young man jack, you’ll make a great father someday 🙏🏼
Matthew 6:19-21
19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
He honestly seems like such a good lad, I just really hope that he does not ruin himself for social media.
Looks like he did exactly that straight after this podcast
@@joelpedder6677 yeah 😭
Aged like fine wine
Amazing episode, make sure to make use of the 3 hashtags you get in the description to push your video out
Great listen, shame the recent drama around jack but I’m hoping he’s able to come back and lock in
Came here from ig
Coming from someone that knows Jack in person this an amazing move for him. Super proud of him and can’t wait to see where he is in a few years 💪🏼
This aged well 😭
Best podcast!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
A lot of the issues Jack has mentioned here are such small tivial problems. I worry for him as he gets older and encounters real challenges.
Unfortunately it gets a lot harder than getting dumped after a summer romance and having to endure college for '2 days a week' 🤣
He wasn’t complaining about having to go to college two days a week, he was talking about how he wasn’t doing anything with the rest of his time and was just bed rotting essentially
At 17/18 that sort of thing is a massive deal!
Man, this... this is what your insta has to be about. So relatable. The insecurity, lack of direction in life, not knowing where you belong.
I know its scary, but this could be so therapeutic for you Jack, youre not alone with these struggles! Try to open up about yourself in the videos about training and nutrition. What are your struggles? What are you learning? You'll see how many people will reach out to you about recognizing all of this and thinking they are alone in this.
Goodluck on your journey, i'll keep following you!
We are all gonna make it!
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁👍
Thank you!
Is he here for uni?

Probably do good eating smaller meals maybe 6 to 7 a day to get used to the quantity of food and doing the bro split chest triceps back biceps shoulders then can go to push pull legs which u can do a 6 day split and then work the muscle more often
would love to see an episode w mckenna crisp
Tough watch
Puuh if you guys would habe me sitting there and hearing why I started training 6 times a week like a maniac, you would know how life can break a man inside
i think jack just needs to wake up
I dont like skinny girls but you are one exception lola
your pretty face makes up for it
“Erm” 😂
Take a shot every time he blinks
Everyone blinks?
@@Ruby_Lola Not everyone blinks at mach 5 though ruby
Cumbum
Jack needs to do some martial art, kid is still fragile go and pickup the gloves trust me its for ur own personality to get stronger
0 achievements this guy has, too early for a podcast
This is like watching paint dry. He cant even speak
Typical 18 year old
Is he autistic? 😂
Kids deffo a virgin
1 million percent
Not true, have you guys seen how many women are on his instagram story?
@@alexpapakyriacou3728 about 3?
@@alexpapakyriacou3728 I highly doubt those chicks actually want to be with him though, they're using him for clout.
he's only 18
This guy bruh 💀
Callum, take a note out of Jack's book and better yourself, especially as it's Mental Health Awareness Week!
@@bestyou3048hope ur mental health is terrible and u end up like jacks guinea pig
Callum my friend you’re not big for bullying a shy 18 year old who is trying to better himself.
Focus on yourself stop hating on others
@@d4sh063try to better himself that is a joke he started hanging out with bad people who are using him and when his fans warned him he started calling them clowns and losers he got dropped by my protein and he stopped training for a while the man wasted his potential and has an ego when he should be humble we put him in this position we gave him the fame but when we try to give him good advice he spits in are Face the man is a loser with an ego thinking he is the big dog and his down fall will be good for him when it comes he is a 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Sellout
Dude got blackpilled. That wasnt a breakup, he got his ass rejected
@ruby_lola I loved this episode! It's my favourite podcast so far. Jack's such a nice guy, working hard to achieve his goals. He's inspirational to so many people 👏👏👏
Aw I’m really glad you enjoyed it! appreciate you ☺️
