It’s great marketing, now give him some money so he can get some more tren

8 years ago i got into body building, for 2.5 years, i strictly followed a typical bro science diet and workout plan. i became addicted to the pain of the gym and went from 6'1 245lbs 24% body fat to a healthy 205lbs and hovered around 9% body fat. it wasn't easy to maintain and I always hated the diet part. the last year i was into fitness i adopted more of a diet plan to what you have just explained. I felt way better and stayed in the exact same shape that last year. Then i got divorced, became severely depressed and for the last 5.5 years I've been a lazy couch potato, in that time span I've been to a gym twice. today i woke up at 260lbs and about 32% body fat. I have zero energy every day. A few days ago i made a decision to start working back towards health, not caring to be the body builder i use to be, just healthy. I got a gym membership again a few days ago, but until about 3 hours ago had still not found the motivation to go. today i worked out for 15 mins. i made my muscles sore, did 5 minutes of cardio and called it a step in the right direction. I think its very important for people to understand you cant keep telling yourself one day, make today DAY ONE! start eating in a calorie deficit or atleast working towards a calorie deficit, and start exercising, weather in the gym, outside or home just start. put in some sort of effort and you will get there just like i know ill get there again.

Get that carb/sugar addiction out of your life, bro. Stay away from the processed crap, anything in a bag or a box is almost always bad for you. Stay as close to the original as possible, centered around fresh, raw vegetables and high-quality cuts of meat. A vegetable salad a day with maybe a vinegar (not vinegarette) dressing is a good way to start. No deli meats, of course. When I was your age, I lost 45 pounds in less than 6 months eating this type of diet and working-out 2hrsX6days just like he talks about in this video ... that was over 20 years ago. Good luck, you can do it.

Thank you so much for spreading these truths! I'm 48 years old and I've been working out and paying attention to my nutrition since I was 20. In the last 4 years my wife and I have had 3 children and I stopped working out and watching what i eat for those 4 years. My weight ballooned from 175 lbs to 207 lbs! But I never really worried about it because of the knowledge I had gained over all those years. I was just busy being a late stage in life, new dad! I finally allowed myself to get back to working out and paying attention to my nutrition about 4 months ago and I'm already back down to 182 lbs. My wife just can't believe how fast I did it. But I've always told her and anyone else who wanted to know....."IT AIN'T ROCKET SCIENCE!" 1st, be true to yourself about what you're putting in your body. 2nd put in less than you put out and you will lose weight. 3rd, exercise with both resistance and cardio and you will lose fat and gain muscle! I also can't stress to people enough the importance of at least 1 gram of protein/ lb of body weight for muscle growth. 💯!!

“The choices you make each day slowly weave a tapestry that creates how you live, feel, and experience life.” This is a great video, thank you.

Amazing video Bryan - the message and editing combined with your calm voice delivers the message perfectly. Keep them coming.

A simple straightforward explanation of how to achieve not only a fitness goal but any other endeavor in life. Salute to you sir!

I did exactly what you did about 5 months ago. Calorie deficit, myfitnesspal, and an apple watch got it all started. Everything you said is totally true and works. 4 days a week in the gym for 45min was all i did and continue to do. I’m still losing weight on that program. May 1st i was 230lbs (5’10)today 9/30 I’m currently 176lbs. 2 months of keto, and incline walking (45min) jump started the weight lose wildly. To anyone that wants to take this leap, its well worth it and very easy once you hack your mindset. This has to be a lifestyle. Otherwise the progress wont last. Keep it up brother

This is the most valuable video I have ever watched and ive watched so many. You have confirmed I am doing the right stuff and giving me a motivation boost!!! i am 9kg's in on my weight loss started at 125kg you have helped me so much in this 18 minutes than any other video. Thanks Bryan!

This is just about the perfect introductory video for someone trying to understand their fitness journey. The game changer for me has been the point about not relying on "motivation". I heard a fitness KZreadr mention this a few months ago and it really was the first time it occured to me to approach fitness and dieting without wishing for motivation to hit me every day. Great video.

Bro, the production quality of this video is FANTASTIC. The fact that you guys are both creatives and you pulled this transformation off while still being productive is incredible! You look amazing, and you earned every bit of it! As a sound engineer, pilot, and getting my foot in the door for cinematography myself, this video hit home. I've not been the best to my body over the years after I got out of the Active Duty Army. I really need to pull my consistency together for my mental health more than anything. Again, well done sir! It's even better that your wife was so supportive. I wish I was this far along with my music creation and video editing skills to do a cool before and after video.

One the best videos on this subject I have seen. So straightforward & easy to comprehend. Great cinematography as well. Thank you for sharing.

Just came here to say that your journey is quite impressive and inspiring. Besides, the intro is beautiful, the editing, color grading, the composition, smooth slow mo while still getting a nice rythme... Take it from a pro, this is true art.

Decades in the gym with more strength but no definition but this video is a light in the darkness. Well done. You speak with honesty and the results are clearly naturally reached. I am going to give a try to this

Apart from all the knowledge given in this video, like everyone says eyes are the window to your soul, and this guy's honesty and simplicity were pretty much visible in his eyes. That was the reason I stayed till the end of the video, cause his words matched the honesty in his eyes. And yes cinematography was just on another level.

Just watched this video for the first time. I started this journey 2 months ago (It will be 2 months in 4 days). I was 290 lbs. I weighed in today, and was 256. All nutrition so far. The effects it has had on me goes far beyond just my appearance. You are right about so many things. Most importantly, doing it for your self, and not relying on anything or anyone else for motivation. Do it for the feeling and the sense of accomplishment it gives you. Make it a way of life, rather than something temporary. Respect the process, and don't get frustrated things aren't happening fast enough. Some weeks, I will lose 3-5 lbs, other weeks, I won't lose anything. It won't be a steady line. But give it time, stay consistent, and you will reach your goals. You may not get to where you want to be as fast as you would like, but put in the effort, and you will get better and better each day. Great video! and an awesome presentation.

Honestly, such a great break down and such a realist video. Everyone starting on their fitness and dieting journey, should watch this.

Watching this after my first day of 30 day challenge to go to the gym with my wife every morning 6:30am before work! I’ve been on/off at the gym the pass 4-5 years and it has been up and downs… more downs than up unfortunately. One of the best fitness and health focused videos on KZread and NOT even from a fitness influencer - which is probably why as it comes across authentically. Science and logic broken down into just a few key principals - thank you! Subscribed.

I am 3 months into where you were 1 year ago and I am SO motivated to live my life this way.

I was following all of this advice when I started my weight loss journey 3 years ago and lost 100+ lbs. Every now and then I lose myself a bit and gain 10-15 lbs and I start to feel anxious (like I am now) because I start to have fear of going back to the old me. Truth is that I’m in a really stressful time of my life where I’m so close to finally graduating college and that’s been the priority these last few months. I felt like I needed to watch this video to get back on track. But one thing I took from this is what you said towards the end: “fitness or life in general isn’t a math equation, or linear. It’s a river that flows in different directions”. And the most important thing is to forgive yourself when you have a small fallout. Pick yourself back up and keep going. This was an amazing video.

Thank you for sharing. In a pain spot at the moment and struggling to start. This is encouraging!

As someone who has yo-yo’d weight loss and diets and watched hundreds of videos over years, I appreciate the authenticity of this video, thank you!

This is the most beautifully shot fitness video I've ever seen, and I've watched heaps of them. Your wife has done an outstanding job, Bravo 👌

This has to be the most genuine fitness video I’ve ever seen. Thanks!

I am 62, lost almost all my post plandemic weight gain of 60lbs, the food you eat is half the battle and yes you need to track calories, I weigh all my food, use the carb manager and fitbit to track calories and energy expended. I do a 1000 calorie deficit at least 2 times a week. Also I eat protein 3 ounces, vegetables 3 ounces, low fat. I do 3 meals a day, if I get hungry i eat lean protein only. I walk on treadmill with a weighted vest every day for an hour do hiit 2 to 3 times a week, and weight train with weights 4 to 5 times a week depending on how sore I am.

Yup, for me the lockdowns had a silver lining. In the first year I dropped 42 lbs. BP went from 146/122 to 115/65. Pre diabetes gone. In the gym three times a week consistently with calorie restriction. The last time I had this profile I was in high school. I wear a Garmin for tracking

Keep going bro and keep doing what makes YOU happy.

Literally the most simple and sound advice I've heard on "how to" for almost everyone.

Seen a tone of it over the years. This was very clear. Clean video montage. Great job. Thanks for your work and thanks for your content.

I’ve been on my fitness journey for seven years now and through that time I have watched hundreds of not thousands of videos. This is easily the best video I have seen as it sums up the majority of what I learned and what I do myself. When anyone ask me what I do to get fit I can send them this video as it will really help.

Thank you for the video, it's simply how i started my journey. I probably was goin through the same thing as you. Messed up diet, anxiety, mental stress, feeling ashamed of my during my early 30s. So last may i made the decision to start my complete transformation, quit smoking, changed my diet to healthy and way less far, started working out daily and as you said it's not about motivation nor inspiration, i actually want this to be my lifestyle.

I’ve been following for a while on IG but had no idea you had a KZread channel. So much insight and easy words to take in in this! Thanks man for the inspiration

Tho I do know some people once they start drinking it's hard to stop and if that's you I suggest only buying alcohol that you are allowing yourself to drinking for the day, to cut the temptation out

I stopped drinking over 2 years ago best thing you can do for yourself if you're an alcoholic.. you'll never get your full potential out of life... so do it no matter and God bless 🙏

thank you so so much Lori and can thank you enough for the constant love and support from you and Lou! love you!!

this is probably the most I've watched a video about out this kind of stuff I just started my journey last week and this helped out a lot! Thank You!

so inspiring 🤩, I feel pretty much like you in the beginning of the video, 1 week ago I started the changed. This video help me so much to put things organized, thank you very much, Bryan!

Great video! I have been doing intermittent fasting since Jan 2021- I went from 265 to 150lbs without working out. Now I just need to get shredded like you!

This is probably the best weight loss video I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing your journey. I have learned so much from you and thank you for being genuine and honest.

*GREAT* VIDEO, Bryan! I'm a fitness enthusiast and love health and fitness. I know it's easy to let some leniency in the daily grind ruin progress and I'm definitely not immune to that. This was inspirational. I loved the production too. *PLEASE* keep making more, my friend!

Fantastic Bryan!! Clearly presented, great cinematography, great story, just brilliant.

I have been at it for 54 days straight and strong. I’m down 21 pounds and building core muscles on chest and shoulders. I really like this video.

Stop counting bro, as long as your counting the days, your limiting yourself. Once you let go of keeping track, and instead, make this your new identity - that’s when you level up. You got this!

Amazing Transformation, great cinematography. All these times I have been looking everywhere to find Motivation and inspiration, but the KEY is consistency. Going to focus on consistency and drop 100 pounds over the coming year. 2023 is the year I give it my all.

Your before and after photos are really giving me some hope. As someone who's "skinny fat" (normal weight but chunky hips and chubby face) your transformation just looks incredible! One of my biggest insecurities is how chubby my face is so I'm hoping that putting on some muscle and leaning out a bit more is gonna help reduce the puffiness in my face!

I used to be in the gym every single day, I was in great shape, and loved it! I missed a payment for the gym (due to being young and stupid with money) and was too embarrassed to go back. Several years later of drinking and overeating I'm about 30% body fat, disgusted with myself I finally joined back at the same gym. I've been going every morning at 5.30am 5 days a week for the last 3 weeks, doing 6 from this week on, loving it and not going to stop again! This is my life now! Thanks for such an inspirational (and amazingly edited) video!

I just wanted to say, this video has such incredible aesthetic. The video cinematography, the sound design... this is the level of attenuation and style I expect of humanity in the modern era, but not everyone has such incredible vision.

Great video buddy! Reiterates everything I talk to my wife about on how I began my journey. We often focus on what we have to give up instead of what we have to gain. The mindset is absolutely the first switch that Hass to take place. I’m gonna follow you and see where your choices take you.

Thanks for this video mate, I’m on a weight loss journey,85 pounds down so far but still a way to go,this has made my journey much clearer.💪

"Do not rely on motivation or inspiration." This has been my biggest struggle. Over the last week, I've had absolutely no motivation, but I'm doing it anyway. It sucks, but in the end, yeah, I feel good physically. I can't afford a gym membership, so grit, calisthenics and walking are all I have at the moment.

Keep going man. Results never follow a linear path. Just be consistent and keep reminding yourself “slowly slowly then suddenly”

This is amazing!!! I’ve been using MyFitness Pal and my Apple Watch, but now after seeing this I have to be more accountable. More consistent. For me this isn’t so much “inspiration”, but a kick in the butt to keep my commitment. Thank you so much. Subscribed. 👍🏾👍🏾

The things we need come into our lives at the exact moment we need them. Sometimes they are gentle, sometimes they are not. This video came at precisely the right moment for me. Winding river indeed. I need to stop trying to divert it by force and just go with it. My body thanks you for this gentle reminder to give myself some grace and be patient. ❤

This video is absolutely phenomenal. Very good job! Thanks for information and motivation. 🎉

Brah! I’m inspired. Started my journey today cos since Covid, working as a nurse 80+ hours a week, my weight went to shit and I gained over 50lbs. Hopefully I can be like you someday

Someone give this man a hug for being a real one

The cinematography and music in this video are on another level. Really well done motivation video.

Beautiful video my man. Also great work on your weight loss journey I cannot tell you how much stuff I read on weight loss and following different nutritionist etc following crazy "diets" etc So much overly complicated stuff out there its crazy Your video literally should be shown to everyone trying to understand weight loss. Its so well put together (production wise) and the information is so simple and digestable. Great work.

If it’s complex someone can slap a label on it and sell it. The simplest thing that no one wasn’t a to hear but everyone knows is move more eat less . The more you lose the more you need to move and the less you need ti eat to keep losing. Simple in theory . The challenge is in the doing . They Can’t sell the basics.

I've been doing it for a month now and god this works. I was 22% body fat and I started with a 500 calorie deficit. Along with working out I have started walking 10-12k steps a day and tried to be as consistent as possible. Cut to one month later, body fat is 19.3%, I am looking fitter and better but weighing a few pounds less. A long way to go but this is the best advice I would take if someone wants to build muscle and cut fat.

Keep it up man! This is YOUR life in the end of the day

This video was awesome! Loved the cinematic intro and the video was just filled to the brim with simple but effective tips. Edited very well and I was thoroughly entertained until the very end!

This is perfect, no BS , just straight to the point logic on how to get it done. Thank your very much.

Bryan, awesome transformation brother!! I’m about to be 40 and have been working out since 2010, so far I’ve lost over 70lbs and built up a little muscle mass. I’m not sure what my current bfp is but I’m 5’4” and currently weigh 152lbs. At my most unhealthiness I weighed about 230lbs. Your video has inspired me to take the next steps in my journey to really achieve a level of leanness that I haven’t yet. I’ve had a dream/goal of getting down to seeing visible abs and although I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished so far, I know I’m capable of more. Looking forward to more content from you, I’ll find you on Insta and TikTok! 💪🏻

Dude was so sincere man! And the video was sick! Way to go bro!

I need to say this: your wife is amazing. This is the best video editing I've seen on KZread for a long time. The content is very good and the message is a positive and healty one but trust me I stuck through to the end of the video because I was enchanted by the visuals from coloring to transitions and even your music is on point.

Wonderfully made video Bryan. Cinematic and inspirational. I’m 5 weeks into my journey. Honestly, the idea of going back to an unhealthy lifestyle and loosing all my progress scares me. 😂 Props to your bride for her dope shots!
