The imaginary chess thing is interesting. Back in high-school, when I was a wrestler, sometimes if I couldn't sleep, I'd have imaginary wrestling matches in my head. Eventually I got to the point where I could get so focused on it, I could almost see the match like it was some kind of lucid hypnogogia that had structure to it.
I used to do and Still do this as well I practice Martial Arts in General so I would visualise fighting opponents and I got so Good at it I sometimes struggle to tell the difference between that and real life that's how realistic it is for me.
@Daisensekai its true. There was some guy who experimented with visualisation training. Hed visualise sparring in his head for HOURS every day and would actually see improvements from it
I do that for my karate training. I can't train kata at home without accidentally hitting someone so I do it all mentally. I sometimes do this for hours at a time. It helps
Normies: Quarantine is not so bad... Introverts: Oh, you think Quarantine is your ally. But you merely adopted the Isolation; I was born in it, moulded by it.
Jimmy suppose U could look it up but basically it’s clearing your mind from thoughts and meditating while visualizing certain scenarios. U could also not have a certain topic in your mind and just let whatever images come into your mind flow I believe that one is called image streaming but there’s different words for everything now a days
"Molded by it, I never seen the light till I was already a man, to me it was nothing then but blinding" 🤣 Jax blade love your channel. The bioneer and Jax blade should collab. It would be awesome
Get some gymnastics rings and do push-ups on those! You'll probably be starting at 3-5 max but you'll get infinitely stronger with a hell of a lot less reps
@M1ATA56 What good is muscle mass without strength? I prefer tension training and explosive pushups. Tendons and ligaments are as important as the muscles.
There is a TH-camr I have been following by the name of "Iron Wolf". He's a US Marine that believes in insanely high rep workouts consisting of burpees, pushups, pullups, squats and more. He does hundreds of each every workout and does this practically every day. He also seems to do this while deployed, which is why I think he is a perfect example of someone who uses their bodyweight to fortify their body and mind.
Tom Hardy has some mean Trap genetics and can look like a cobra fast. For Bronson he trained with a lot of bodyweight with his trainer Peanut. For warrior he trained with mma and ufc fighters. Lots of chicken and veggies he said the diet sucked. For bane he dirty bulked. Ate crap but lifted heavy which if u noticed his costume it's high up his waist to hide his belly and put more focus on the upper area to show his gains
If u survived being left for death, then start to lift to get rid of the rage that u used to survived and now need to get rid off... then u automatically get that mindset. I had it happen to me, i was at a position where i could stay inside for months (no work at the time) and so i started to lift. By the time that i came back into population, i gained 25kg of muscles and looked quite big compared to those around me. Bulking is key.
As a chess nerd I thought it was interesting how you brought up blind folded chess. I remember seeing an interview of the the current best chess player in the world, Magnus Carlson. He said sometimes he'd forget the position in his head so he had to restart the game and play all the moves that were played in his head. Which is ridiculous to think about because he's blind folded and going against multiple opponents.
Herschel Walker Style Training will work if you put the effort in, but also the mental strength and will required to survive in prison and push yourself further than you thought possible will change your physique and it’s as simple as that, the mind will force the body to adapt to the New pressures put on it. Do as many press ups as you can and then rest 30 seconds and do as many as you and then rest another 30 seconds and continue in that manner and only rest 1 minute between different variations and hand placements and you’ll build more strength than most normal people will think possible, all it takes is a lockdown and a living room with a few chairs.
I did all my workouts in Isolation as well. Fact is I was only able to get 4 pack, but aside from sculpting even at a overweight level I developed a insane strength. Performing first 4 reps of pistol squat and jumping 2 and 1st quarter meters. I am honestly impressed in how far I come, all I need is how I develop myself in using nature to opportunity.
I never realized how important mine to muscle connection is until after watching you. Bravo sir. I am now making gains because I can separate my muscle groups and link them to my mind. Thank you.
Man i love your how consistent you are. Nearly every other fitness channel take weeks to make video even in quarantine you make very high quality videos in days. Great work keep going.
Did overcoming isometrics for a month on my legs. My lifts became much easier and I smashed through my plateau by 10kg. Now I'm progressing linearly again.
Another good one, thanks. Despite having weights etc in the garden, I've been using lockdown to experiment with high rep pullups, pushups etc. and nasal breathing whilst training and running. Incidentally, Bronson 's real real name is Michael Peterson.
Absolutely, imagining or visualization is great for motivation, technique improvement, and memory. I just did a discussion on this for my strength and conditioning class.
Find your passion and do that and suddenly you can achieve incredible things. This is the gold. I tell people this all the time and have gotten a few people doing horse stance once a day. I love being motivated by others and in turn motivating those I care about to care for themselves and enjoy finding themselves getting stronger or losing weight or just finding a new confidence in themselves. Good content brother, thanks for the inspiration.
I usually root for the villains. Especially Lord of the Rings I root for the orcs. Even though I know the outcome ,I’m still hopeful! One day, perhaps in another reality.
This video is great. I've been training and improving myself during lock down, however recently I had a hard situation which kind of brought me down; hadn't been able to concentrate and motivate myself to keep training this last few days because of this, until today. This video reminded me the true power and meaning of will and mind strength.
*There is a reason why* as long as you do your even the most basic calisthenics exercises like push ups, pull ups, atg squats with full range of motion, explosively and till failure..... You will have optimal muscle growth/training stimulus. And I will try and explain that reason as simply as I can using real life sports science findings that are undisputable. The more times you can explosively rep a weight before failure the *lighter that weight is for you and thus the stronger you are and as a natty, the stronger you are the bigger you are.* Now we humans have a limit to our relative strength, a limit which varies depending upon individuals but it's there. So when you lift a percentage of your bodyweight with calisthenics exercises(even if that only allows you to lift no more than 50-60 percent of bodyweight in case of a properly executed push up), the more reps you can do before failure, the more muscle tissue you will have. Because you won't be able to press 10 times your bodyweight, whatever angle you press at. And this is because human beings have a set limit of contractile protein percentage per weight of muscle tissue. So in order for your muscle to get stronger after a certain point, your muscles *will actually have to increase in size and weight.* This is how muscles are built. So you won't be able to do 10 minutes of non stop push ups (which is 600 reps btw) without adding a SHIT TON of muscle tissue to your pecs, triceps and front delts. This is how and why prisoners build muscle without weights, guys in pen who have 20+ inch guns, they can do 10+ minutes of non stop push ups, I have seen this with my own eyes btw. And basic push ups and pull ups and squats aren't the only thing you can do. You can do one arm push ups, one arm one leg push ups, one arm pull ups, one leg squats and all the intermediate variations that will get you there (you can find those variations in great detail in either convict Conditioning 1 or naked warrior by Pavel tsatsouline). You can do one arm push ups between two tables with a travel bag full of sand from your non pressing arm, same can be done with one arm pull ups and one legged squats. I mean large 60-100litre travel bags are cheap and sand is free, so no need to buy expensive weight plates. They are a waste of money, just make 5kilo and 10kilo sand pouches by stuffing sand into polythene trash bags and ducttaping them up and those are your weight plates that you can stuff into the travel bag or take out. Hell, do weighted push ups between two tables with a travel bag full of sand hanging from your dip belt (or just rig a personal dip belt with seat belt strap), do weighted pull ups like that. As you can see there is really no limitation on the amount of weight you can use when you use sand. So get after it ffs.
Thanks! I'll talk about this later. Stuck in lockdown means I don't have access to heavy weights so I decided to focus on bodyweight for a bit. Made sense to lighten up slightly, and I started hitting core harder!
„Your own style of meditation“ is such a big thing that no ones talk about. Try it. Try anything. If you meditate, try doing something you feel doing. For me it’s shadow boxing. I meditate for 10 mi utes to get in, then a bell rings. I stay in Meditation but I stand up and start shadow boxing in rythm with my breath. It’s amazing, I did it for over a hour once then my girl came in asking what was going on. I did not feel the time, it’s a different zone you’re entering while creating your own meditation practice.
Thanks for this video, just found your Channel, just starting to work out I'm only 25 But have made it a goal to workout and train fitness and health as much as possible, I've had declining health for years and want to change, your videos not only good practical information but motivational
This is starting to sound like some Doc Savage stuff. A 2-hour daily workout that included his muscles, brain and even his senses and was so intense that Monk remarked "Just watching him will make you sweat."
First time here. And you are by far my favorite youtube channel. Thank you very much. I have many strugles with family and economics. I always live far from city, take 3h travelling buss daily, sometimes sleep less than 5h... My whole life outside work and study is inside my own small room. Here since my 15 years, I pratice everything I can, with weapons to meditations... Characters such Zaheer from Legends of Korra, Bane ( who I meet in the movies), even Miyamoto Musashi... They give my strenght to improve and get better and better... Videos like this get my adrenalin high and burning, as my spirit hard and stoic. Thank you.
It's interesting because I went through a phase where I loved to run, climb, then lift, and then I went through puberty and got really depressed with life. Didn't do crap for about a decade asitpertsins to physical training, but did plenty of blindfold chess and occasional mental math just for the fun of it. No strcuture. Now I am back into physical training. Get into running for endurance, and now speed. Now it's led to parkour and functional strength. Maybe I've had all of this, but it took a different form in my brain. Looking to combine my love for chess into my training. I've actually tried this before(pushups and planks before playing a move), but now I see that this is a thing. Thanks for the ideas and knowledge Mr. Bioneer! You're playing chess not checkers
You can get more out of your pushups if you go chest to the ground and arms fully locked out, it'll be tougher, and you won't be able to do as many pushups but it'll be more productive. But great video, I'm very glad you included the Iron Samson shoutout. His story is fascinating, lifting up horses in battle, escaping prisons by breaking bars etc, another big fan of isometrics was Bruce Lee himself
Got the book Solitary Fitness back in early HS. Still my favorite ways of training. What do you think about joint wear and regeneration over time? Long time fan of your work!
Thank you sir Adam, not as good as climbing trees in the rain, but I'm alone and training and running the farm so you help me out with with my motivation needs, stay safe my friend
Join the military, be good enough to be special forces, then be good enough to be selected for a drug program that enhances all your physical abilities, including boosting your intelligence, and gives you a healing factor...yeah...should be easy.
@@MyName-sx3mr That's exactly what I thought and I wanted to answer that to that comment but then I saw you just written it. You nailed it 100 percent.
Gyms are closed again in Ireland until perhaps the end of November- all depending on how the recent high case numbers fare out. Im lucky to have weights at home to crack on with things. I really enjoyed home workouts during the Spring, but now that the weather is turninh shite, the mood and morale is lowered. This video is fecking brilliant. A great provider of advice, and motavation. Thank You for all your content. Regards from Ireland.
I love Bane and also Stoicism, so I figured I'd see if you've done a video on this specifically and imagine my surprise when it starts with a quote from my favorite Stoic philosopher
Can you make a video on subliminals & if there is any evidence they can be used for anything? Also about Binaural beats like “beta,alpha,theta,delta “ waves if they can be used to enhance or get us in meditation faster.
Random question here- and I dont know if youve covered it yet on other videos:: But have you incorporated Yoga into your training? Ex Wrestler Diamond Dallas Page's "DDPYoga" is fantastic. Using "dynamic resistance", as though you are "moving thru' clay" and using imaginary weights whilsts performing the positions. It has been a superb benifit to me this year. Some of your bodyweight workouts I see you do reminded me of it,and i was just wondering if you knew of it. Again- brilliant brilliant content.
Your videos break so many performance codes. No playplay. 💪😎 Trachtenberg was a mathematician who held on to sanity by retreating to an inner world of mathematics and created the Trachtenberg Method of Speed Mathematics. He survived! I obsessed over him when in middle school.
When I was in the Air Force, sometimes at Squadron PT we would do the deck of cards thing where a card would say "10 or 20 squats", "10 diamond push ups" etc.
a strong core is enough, as you can see he can do planches with one hand, that is an enourmous amount of strenght in his core, and being flexible helps too. As a bulging disc patient, i can tell that planches, lateral planches, pelvic lifts, stiffs and its harder variations is enough to give you a six pack and mantain a strong core, healing the injury and preventing to get worse
I've been doing the isometrics for my shoulders for a few weeks now. I basically loop a red band just above my wrists and try to pull it apart as much as I can. Like a super hero breaking trough cuffs.
Cool! In the past, I've been someone who has followed the standard teaching on bodybuilding and cardio. But I had a breakdown and high strain exercise fries my nervous system. So, I have been tweaking and working around what I can do. Here's what I am doing: Full body bodybuilding routine of exercise selection, ie, deadlift, squat, DB bench press, lat pull down, military press, bent over DB row, DB incline press, cross-body hammer curl, tri (2 overheard and 1 kickback per rep), face pulls for rotator cuff and ab work (including lower abs). I do one set of each for 45seconds. I wouldn't say 'all-out', but it is kind of influenced by Tabata and Crossfit style of working. I don't have a fixed rest period, but go again when I'm ready, which usually takes as long as it takes to set the next exercise up! If I go all out at the moment I would be burned out by 20-30 seconds possibly. I do each weight for 6 workouts before increasing the weight. My deadlift, for example, went 22, 23, 25, 29 reps in the 45 seconds over the past four workouts. Here's what I'm noticing, my general energy levels are increasing and muscle size is increasing. What I really like about it is that by getting my heart rate up while lifting weights my fitness is increasing without doing cardio separately. I am also trying to keep my daily step count up, I am enjoying this so much and seeing so much gain with what feels like less effort than anytime I have worked out before, I can't see any reason to change what I'm doing. My number one goal is not bigger muscles or to run a marathon but to enjoy life.
Ummmmm dude. What do you mean "he mastered meditation, whatever that means." Obviously he got his online degree while in prison. He mastered meditation with a minor in viticulture and enology. Also a Bachelor's in Floral Management. Don't confuse your Hyssops for Lavender or I will BREAK YOU!!
First of all, this is an amazing video and one I had been looking for elsewhere. I haven't watched any of Jax' stuff in awhile and I hadn't thought of looking there - shame on me. I have been spanning the net, further than my usual, to see where I can find more videos on the topic and I am glad to say I have found a couple of new (to me) channels that I'm interested in watching for the future. Second, I don't want to sound weird but the current look is badass! It's somewhere between Stephen Strange and Frank Castle. It's unique to only you it seems. So, congrats on becoming your own (and the community) superhero! Which is a nice segueway into the possibility of covering The Punisher's training. I know this will cover military training and I don't think I've seen you cover that as much. So, to answer your question AND to throw you a challenge, I think this character would be perfect for you, this channel, and the community. Awesome suspense scene at the end of the video. I won't spoil any of the gasps (or laughs) to those who've not seen this yet. Thanks for another amazing job. P.S. Parts of my ACE PT Fitness Manual is covered in your Superfunctional Training book and I have been using it to understand the manual. Super-thanks!
Play chess with your colleague you only see once or twice a day, when you pass by each other exchange your move.. This kind of chess playing is hard at first even tho you can make it easier to get started by keeping a real board to visualize/keep RECORD. Getting going and winning your first play of mental chess is super rewarding.
Somebody cast the Bioneer as Batman. We can get him a vocal coach. Dude was looking dangerous during the "immovable object" portion around @4:20 . Great video.
I definitely agree with your opinion about Mike Tyson. When he came out of prison his legs had surpassed his upper body. I thought I was the only person that noticed that but I am glad to hear you say it.
Hello, during my whole life my chest has been the achiles heel of my physique, during quarantine I started gradually adding weight to my pushups, I got to press with 30 pounds On my back 13 reps x 3 sets, eventually I felt less and less pec activation so I began performing regular pushups and also began to increase the number of sets; overall this strategy has worked wonders for me, I guess my chest simply responds better to a higher number of sets, reps with "light weights" ; currently trying to do 10 sets of pushups with 5 pounds of my back!!
Great video as always! You’re videos are really useful! I’m a martial artist and I love training and you’re videos genuinely help me so much and I wouldn’t be where I am if it wasn’t for your videos! Plus they’re cool and fun too! Keep it up!!! 🔥🙌 💪
Great info! You should do a video on mental exercise that David Goggins use to push past pain and mental barriers. He's on multiple podcasts including Joe Rogan and has a book called Cant Hurt Me. He was also the SEAL in the book living with a SEAL. Definitely think it will benefit your audience massively.

Funny how Tom Hardy played Bane and Charles Bronson in film. Curious about his training during that process.
For Bronson he trained like the man himself. There are videos online
He most certainly took some performance enhancing supplements in preparation for those roles dont be fooled.

As you can see there is really no limitation on the amount of weight you can use when you use sand.
So get after it ffs.

About time, you grew some epic facial hair, it suits you! 😁
Thanks man!
You don’t need a gym to get jacked, it all exists in the mind. This guy is brilliant!
Great content as always. You’ve become noticeably shredded of late. Maybe a video about that. Nutrition? Program change? Thanks.
Thanks! I'll talk about this later. Stuck in lockdown means I don't have access to heavy weights so I decided to focus on bodyweight for a bit. Made sense to lighten up slightly, and I started hitting core harder!
It's great you refrenced Charles Bronson I've beIN using his style of workouts for awhile now it works
„Your own style of meditation“ is such a big thing that no ones talk about. Try it. Try anything. If you meditate, try doing something you feel doing. For me it’s shadow boxing. I meditate for 10 mi utes to get in, then a bell rings. I stay in Meditation but I stand up and start shadow boxing in rythm with my breath. It’s amazing, I did it for over a hour once then my girl came in asking what was going on. I did not feel the time, it’s a different zone you’re entering while creating your own meditation practice.
I remember doing a deck of cards workout in a track practice! That was CRAZY. I might implement it in my workout rountine
Thanks for this video, just found your Channel, just starting to work out I'm only 25 But have made it a goal to workout and train fitness and health as much as possible, I've had declining health for years and want to change, your videos not only good practical information but motivational
This is starting to sound like some Doc Savage stuff. A 2-hour daily workout that included his muscles, brain and even his senses and was so intense that Monk remarked "Just watching him will make you sweat."
First time here.
And you are by far my favorite youtube channel.
Thank you very much.
I have many strugles with family and economics. I always live far from city, take 3h travelling buss daily, sometimes sleep less than 5h...
My whole life outside work and study is inside my own small room. Here since my 15 years, I pratice everything I can, with weapons to meditations...
Characters such Zaheer from Legends of Korra, Bane ( who I meet in the movies), even Miyamoto Musashi... They give my strenght to improve and get better and better...
Videos like this get my adrenalin high and burning, as my spirit hard and stoic.
Thank you.
One of my favorite books to use with training in isolation is the naked warrior by pavel.
It's interesting because I went through a phase where I loved to run, climb, then lift, and then I went through puberty and got really depressed with life. Didn't do crap for about a decade asitpertsins to physical training, but did plenty of blindfold chess and occasional mental math just for the fun of it. No strcuture. Now I am back into physical training. Get into running for endurance, and now speed. Now it's led to parkour and functional strength. Maybe I've had all of this, but it took a different form in my brain. Looking to combine my love for chess into my training. I've actually tried this before(pushups and planks before playing a move), but now I see that this is a thing. Thanks for the ideas and knowledge Mr. Bioneer! You're playing chess not checkers
Push ups and sit ups are my favorite,but 2000 a day is just when you have nothing else to do lmfaoo
You can get more out of your pushups if you go chest to the ground and arms fully locked out, it'll be tougher, and you won't be able to do as many pushups but it'll be more productive.
But great video, I'm very glad you included the Iron Samson shoutout. His story is fascinating, lifting up horses in battle, escaping prisons by breaking bars etc, another big fan of isometrics was Bruce Lee himself
Got the book Solitary Fitness back in early HS. Still my favorite ways of training. What do you think about joint wear and regeneration over time? Long time fan of your work!
Id like to know too!
I got the book while locked up pretty good
Thank you sir Adam, not as good as climbing trees in the rain, but I'm alone and training and running the farm so you help me out with with my motivation needs, stay safe my friend
"So what kind of training do you do?"
Bioneer: "All the things."
If I had to choose one comic that marked my life (but... sadly never acted upon...) is this. Thank you for your amazing work, keep it up!
How about how to train like Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke.
Naveito thats easy, martial arts.
Profile pic checks out
Join the military, be good enough to be special forces, then be good enough to be selected for a drug program that enhances all your physical abilities, including boosting your intelligence, and gives you a healing factor...yeah...should be easy.
James R 😂
James R that would be what we call steroids my friend.
This is an amazing video, it proves you only need your body and mind to conquer anything
You start to look like martial arts villain with those mustache and beard
He kinda looks like Pacquiao
@@MyName-sx3mr
That's exactly what I thought and I wanted to answer that to that comment but then I saw you just written it. You nailed it 100 percent.
We Should all strive to be like certain strong or mentally powerful people like bane or batman or anyone we want.
Do a video about training for impenetrable skin like Luke Cage or Thanos.
Nilav Sarkar you can train like the Romans, i think they used salt to make their skin tougher or something like that
holy shit you have gotten so much more jacked since your earlier videos you have actually gotten to a batman physique
You will never see The Bioneer and Batman in the same room - anyone else notice this ? I am suspicious !
Hhhhhmm I wonder
yes. but does this give you power over me?
Gyms are closed again in Ireland until perhaps the end of November- all depending on how the recent high case numbers fare out. Im lucky to have weights at home to crack on with things. I really enjoyed home workouts during the Spring, but now that the weather is turninh shite, the mood and morale is lowered. This video is fecking brilliant. A great provider of advice, and motavation. Thank You for all your content. Regards from Ireland.
ayy fitness isolation book not to many people talk about it.
I love Bane and also Stoicism, so I figured I'd see if you've done a video on this specifically and imagine my surprise when it starts with a quote from my favorite Stoic philosopher
Can you make a video on subliminals & if there is any evidence they can be used for anything? Also about Binaural beats like “beta,alpha,theta,delta “ waves if they can be used to enhance or get us in meditation faster.
Bullshit, it doesn't matter, I tried for 5 years
@@shamshadalam5081 what kind of subliminals did you work on
@@builtdif5715 none work.
Really good quality video, but why this channel is not hitting a million
Two characters that Tom Hardy has portrayed in movies. He was amazing in Bronson
I went from 12 push ups with 10 minutes recovery to 120 push-ups in under ten minutes just because of quarantine. I WAS BORN IN IT, MOLDED BY IT
@That British Guy bad form
Random question here- and I dont know if youve covered it yet on other videos:: But have you incorporated Yoga into your training? Ex Wrestler Diamond Dallas Page's "DDPYoga" is fantastic. Using "dynamic resistance", as though you are "moving thru' clay" and using imaginary weights whilsts performing the positions. It has been a superb benifit to me this year. Some of your bodyweight workouts I see you do reminded me of it,and i was just wondering if you knew of it. Again- brilliant brilliant content.
This is literally the best channel on yt
The only thing you missed out was the camel back with an entire jar full of pre workout let’s go Bane juice
Your videos break so many performance codes. No playplay. 💪😎 Trachtenberg was a mathematician who held on to sanity by retreating to an inner world of mathematics and created the Trachtenberg Method of Speed Mathematics. He survived! I obsessed over him when in middle school.
Damn dude I didn’t even realise that guy working out was you that’s mad . You look very similar to roberto Duran
Like Roberto n Manny P mixed together
Fr. Very motivational
When I was in the Air Force, sometimes at Squadron PT we would do the deck of cards thing where a card would say "10 or 20 squats", "10 diamond push ups" etc.
How do you avoid lumbar zone injuries doing all those excercices of back rotation and flexion of the lower spine?
Probably strong abs. They help a lot with spinal health.
A whole lot of stretching the hip flexors- 90% of back pain is usually tight hip flexors and or weak abs.
a strong core is enough, as you can see he can do planches with one hand, that is an enourmous amount of strenght in his core, and being flexible helps too. As a bulging disc patient, i can tell that planches, lateral planches, pelvic lifts, stiffs and its harder variations is enough to give you a six pack and mantain a strong core, healing the injury and preventing to get worse
Thanks for the reference to Norman Doidge's book. I now acquired it and it's indeed an inspirational read.
Deathstroke, Daredevil, black panther ,captian America
AJ gaming martial arts, martial arts, targeted Olympic training, and steroids. All in order.
The punisher
Awesome Video
I see you got the Bruce Lee beard going on.
I haven't watched any of your vids for a few months and your progress is amazing! It's inspiring to see. Awesome development.
“It doesn’t matter who we are. What matters is our plan. No one cared who I was till I put on this mask.”
I've been doing the isometrics for my shoulders for a few weeks now. I basically loop a red band just above my wrists and try to pull it apart as much as I can. Like a super hero breaking trough cuffs.
So I've been watching older videos, we need more fitness jokes
Yes I agree there haven't been enough lately!
Fitness joke number one.
Celly: You like fitness?
Me: uh, yeah:
Celly: fitness d.. in your mouth!!
Good memories i don't want to ever live again 💯
Cool! In the past, I've been someone who has followed the standard teaching on bodybuilding and cardio. But I had a breakdown and high strain exercise fries my nervous system. So, I have been tweaking and working around what I can do. Here's what I am doing:
Full body bodybuilding routine of exercise selection, ie, deadlift, squat, DB bench press, lat pull down, military press, bent over DB row, DB incline press, cross-body hammer curl, tri (2 overheard and 1 kickback per rep), face pulls for rotator cuff and ab work (including lower abs).
I do one set of each for 45seconds. I wouldn't say 'all-out', but it is kind of influenced by Tabata and Crossfit style of working. I don't have a fixed rest period, but go again when I'm ready, which usually takes as long as it takes to set the next exercise up! If I go all out at the moment I would be burned out by 20-30 seconds possibly. I do each weight for 6 workouts before increasing the weight.
My deadlift, for example, went 22, 23, 25, 29 reps in the 45 seconds over the past four workouts. Here's what I'm noticing, my general energy levels are increasing and muscle size is increasing. What I really like about it is that by getting my heart rate up while lifting weights my fitness is increasing without doing cardio separately. I am also trying to keep my daily step count up, I am enjoying this so much and seeing so much gain with what feels like less effort than anytime I have worked out before, I can't see any reason to change what I'm doing.
My number one goal is not bigger muscles or to run a marathon but to enjoy life.
Ummmmm dude. What do you mean "he mastered meditation, whatever that means." Obviously he got his online degree while in prison. He mastered meditation with a minor in viticulture and enology.
Also a Bachelor's in Floral Management.
Don't confuse your Hyssops for Lavender or I will BREAK YOU!!
Continue doing Bane and do the Punisher!
this guy makes a living with training montages
You are the absolute UNIT
Awesome video man. -First time viewer
This video was randomly recommended to me. Awesome content. Best youtube video I've watched in a while
First of all, this is an amazing video and one I had been looking for elsewhere. I haven't watched any of Jax' stuff in awhile and I hadn't thought of looking there - shame on me. I have been spanning the net, further than my usual, to see where I can find more videos on the topic and I am glad to say I have found a couple of new (to me) channels that I'm interested in watching for the future.
Second, I don't want to sound weird but the current look is badass! It's somewhere between Stephen Strange and Frank Castle. It's unique to only you it seems. So, congrats on becoming your own (and the community) superhero! Which is a nice segueway into the possibility of covering The Punisher's training. I know this will cover military training and I don't think I've seen you cover that as much. So, to answer your question AND to throw you a challenge, I think this character would be perfect for you, this channel, and the community.
Awesome suspense scene at the end of the video. I won't spoil any of the gasps (or laughs) to those who've not seen this yet. Thanks for another amazing job.
P.S. Parts of my ACE PT Fitness Manual is covered in your Superfunctional Training book and I have been using it to understand the manual. Super-thanks!
Kick ass video! Watching it as I warm up for some training! By far one of the best videos I’ve seen on TH-cam for along time! Good work man!
Your channel is just one of a kind...
Dude you’ve gotten absolutely huge, kudos to you
Been into meditation and workouts for a while. Glad to find about Bane.... will find some of those comics.
Play chess with your colleague you only see once or twice a day, when you pass by each other exchange your move.. This kind of chess playing is hard at first even tho you can make it easier to get started by keeping a real board to visualize/keep RECORD. Getting going and winning your first play of mental chess is super rewarding.
This is by far the coolest workout/exercise channel on TH-cam. This man is no "Payaso!" (That's a Bane reference) 😁
Somebody cast the Bioneer as Batman. We can get him a vocal coach. Dude was looking dangerous during the "immovable object" portion around @4:20 . Great video.
I wish this came earlier, I really needed it
Naw, you needed it when you got it. It's been six days since you posted, have you applied?
If only my history class was taught like this. Great video.
I definitely agree with your opinion about Mike Tyson. When he came out of prison his legs had surpassed his upper body. I thought I was the only person that noticed that but I am glad to hear you say it.
Hello, during my whole life my chest has been the achiles heel of my physique, during quarantine I started gradually adding weight to my pushups, I got to press with 30 pounds On my back 13 reps x 3 sets, eventually I felt less and less pec activation so I began performing regular pushups and also began to increase the number of sets; overall this strategy has worked wonders for me, I guess my chest simply responds better to a higher number of sets, reps with "light weights" ; currently trying to do 10 sets of pushups with 5 pounds of my back!!
Pleasantly surprised to see a quote from my favorite philosopher in my favorite TH-cam channel!
Great video as always! You’re videos are really useful! I’m a martial artist and I love training and you’re videos genuinely help me so much and I wouldn’t be where I am if it wasn’t for your videos! Plus they’re cool and fun too! Keep it up!!! 🔥🙌 💪
Those kicks were solid man. Right on. You’ve definitely been practicing and it paying off.
This channel is epic.
Great info!
You should do a video on mental exercise that David Goggins use to push past pain and mental barriers. He's on multiple podcasts including Joe Rogan and has a book called Cant Hurt Me. He was also the SEAL in the book living with a SEAL.
Definitely think it will benefit your audience massively.
There’s a TH-camr named IronLoo and his training style is a lot like this. He’s a total freak but inspirational.
