Simon and I went to the same college, he is hands down one of the most dope people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.

I hope this is sustainable for him. I was like him in the past where I was obessed in losing weight back in college, where it was easier to control food intake and the gym was accesible. As my environment changes it takes more willpower to sustain the routine, especially where I am mentally and physically tired from work.

Deep cut lmao.

I admire Simons dedication and commend him for his results, but I think a disclaimer is necessary. You do NOT need to drink that much water a day in order to lose weight. Most individuals don’t even get the recommended amount of 2.7 liters for active women and 3.5 l for active men so upping your intake by even a little bit will probably help most people. You can die of hyponatremia due to high intakes of water. There is also such a thing as overtraining and it can have very real and negative impacts on your body physiologically, and hormonally. Most people can benefit from upping their daily activity by even 45 min-60 min once a day, 5 times a week and still see results. You do NOT need to workout like Simon to get results. He just wanted to purge bad habits in a short amount of time which can also lead to relapse since its not sustainable.

My man is killin it’. While you definitely don’t have to do an absolutely insane lifestyle change like this to get results I understand that so many people do so much better when they are very rigid with themselves. My biggest piece of advice from somebody who lost 60 pounds doing Keto and intense restrictive diets (not really my thing anymore) is that when it’s time to go back to a more maintenance style of eating and working out is to MAKE SURE to have some sort of support system to keep you accountable. Whether that’s going to therapy or plugging yourself in with some friends who are going through the same situation as you, having other people around to keep you accountable and motivated is so important. 😮Eating and working out how intensely he is just isn’t sustainable for most people for the rest of their lives and the transition period can be so difficult. You almost feel like you’re cheating when you actually eat something that you truly enjoy and it’s so easy to fall off the wagon and crush 2 combo meals from Micky D’s again lol Much love though and his motivation and results are amazing!

The part that broke me just a little was the "I don't track calories because I didn't want to do too much" and then...

I'm assuming this is his job... because there's just no time for anything else. I've lost 120lbs *albeit over a much longer timeframe* but I feel that I've been able to use that time to build healthy habits that I can actually sustain over the rest of my life. I wish the absolute best for him and hope he finds a way to maintain that doesn't consume his life. ❤💜

Any fat person will tell you... losing weight is the "easy part"... maintaining it long term is the hard part... and without learned healthy habits, it's all but impossible... it's the reason that statistically over 80% of weight loss ends in regain. Because everyone is only interested in how fast they can lose weight... they aren't thinking about the long term. It was only when I stopped thinking about how fast I could lose it and started thinking about how I could maintain it that I was able to lose over 120 lbs... (and still losing). He could defy all of the statistics (and I truly hope he does). I just hope that others who are watching don't leave this video thinking that this is the best way to go about losing 100 lbs. 🤷‍♀️

You dont need to eat every 2 hours that's not normal, that's a stupid myth. Fasting would benefit you greatly. And focus on mostly protein so you feel full. You don't need to work out multiple times a day, that means you are not going hard enough. 3 times a week at high intensity would be enough for you starting out with 2 meals a day. You got your information all wrong and this why your results are bad.

So much of this is so unhealthy its really shocking to see. 1- over consumption of water 2- no time for social life or a job 3- overtraining that could lead to injury Plus more. I understand the benefits and where he has come from, its very impressive that he has changed some really bad habits, but this is so extreme and he could end up back where he was as this is so restrictive and the overtraining could lead to injury, plus these new changes could have a negative effect on him and his health.

Really enjoyed that. Very inspirational. Loved the "Rule of Two"

This dude is the personification of the "cut's gonna be legendary bruh". But, seriously it's amazing man, keep pushing mate, you're doing great. I used to drink 11 liters of water per day when I got from 232lbs down to 148lbs (105kg to 67kg) (heaviest I've ever been to lightest I've ever been in my adult life) in 8 months. What worked for me: -Intermitted fasting (skipping breakfast, then having 3-4 larger meals) between 1-9 pm eating period / 16 to 8 hours -Lots of water (11 liters) - the trick is to use a lot of salt in all your meals - eat gherkins etc. -Chewing gums (sugar free - calories are nullified by the chewing action) all day long whenever I'm not having a meal -Mouth wash and brushing your teeth whenever you feel hungry with a bad taste in your mouth -Walking outside once or twice a day in low pace while listening to a podcast or a comedy special or an audiobook for an hour -I do weightlifting religiously now, but I did not do it back than when I dropped all that weight. Honestly, it felt like it was almost effortless. Trust me, it's so much easier than you think. You really get used to the morning hunger, then for the rest of the day you will not feel hungry. The only "difficult" part is quite a few visits to the restroom. At least once an hour. Oh btw, I was working in an office environment 9-5 , 6 days a week with 1h of commute and socializing after work, dancing classes and living with my partner (additional responsibilities towards my partner etc.) It really felt effortless, it wasn't even planned really, I did not set any goals, no calorie restrictions, just meal prep for the whole week. It's very easy, give it a shot and see how you go. Hope this helps. Cheers.

11 liters of water is absolutely braindead, no matter how much salt or magnesium u take you will always have a disbalance of electrolytes unless you are somehow perfectly getting the amount of electrolytes per day, which mind you not is not only salt and magnesium.

Mouth wash and brushing your teeth whenever feeling hungry is another sure way of ruining your teeth for no reason.

This was such a refreshing look at weight loss - I've went through what he's gone through ( from 415 lbs down to 219 in ~400days) and this guy's mentality was on point. His goals are not what 99.9% of other people's goals are, so he's doing what 99.9% of other people won't do. He's made up his mind and chosen to alter his entire trajectory to attain the goal of bettering himself. That is what it takes and its incredible to see - very inspiring! Much love and thanks for the share Will!

This video reassures my fitness/weight loss journey, thank you guys!!

This is awesome! We need more people like this making videos

Love this guy a lot. Hope he accomplishes his goal and then works to find a medium to stay healthy and happy.

I have a feeling he's going to need to gradually change his routine over the next few months; start to steadily reduce water intake, probably make some adjustments to diet. I'm not surprised he has issues with cramping; that water intake is flushing all the nutrients out. The impressive part is the gradual and ordered approach to lowering maximum lifts to a more sustainable level.

He has chrons so hes gonna be cramping regardless. Its also why he takes the supplements.

@3:52 I agree with him. I feel like that’s why so many fail. They over complicate it. With macros, calorie counting apps, an array of supplements. Just start. Be consistent and worry about all that stuff after you’ve overcome the first obstacle of just going to the gym or eating healthier.

Bro you are killing it - From the perspective of also gone through a weightloss ride over my life (was 405 am now 220) You are an inspiration keep killing it Will - your quick humor makes your videos that much better

Very much enjoyed this video. He’s such an inspiration for change 💪🏼

I'm all for this and I'm so happy he can change his life. Telling people it's never to late to change your life... but I can't help thinking that most people probably don't have the resources to just take time off to make that change...

Hi Will! Loved the video. Brittany Broski once mentioned on her podcast that whenever she does physically exerting things she feels the need to cry and gets overwhelmed. I'm curious if your open, fun, understanding approach to fitness and how it's a different journey for everyone would help her lose weight (as she's talked about wanting to do) and her recent diagnosis of PCOS. You and Brittany collaborating would probably be one of the most hilarious and eye openings collabs yet!!!

Very inspirational. Thanks man. I'm 43 and I will make changes in my life like you are doing.

Great job! Just be careful, this was inspiring to watch !

As a medical doctor, this video raises numerous concerns: 1. You eat so much that your gut cannot handle all of that food. This may be a large aspect of what is causing your Crohn’s disease - a damaged gut will likely promote autoimmune disease. 2. You exercise so much that you place a tremendous amount of stress on your body. 3. The combination of the two does not seem in the lease bit safe. You’re losing weight, but I believe you’re damaging your body in numerous ways that you do not realize. 4. This lifestyle does not teach any sense of self-control. I doubt you will be able to remain at the weight you want to be once you’ve lost all your weight, because then you have to maintain - and do you want the rest of your life back? Your full time job is fitness. This is not healthy. 5. No greens except dry scoop? Really? You’re not teaching yourself how to eat properly. There is absolutely no self control here. 6. 12 L of water also seems concerning. Your kidneys are probably not happy with you. I doubt you’re damaging them, but the loss of magnesium is concerning given all its important functions. You’re probably still deficient, even if your lab work says your levels are normal. Most Americans’ total body stores of magnesium are low. I cannot support this. This video is massively concerning.

This is a very inspiring video! Great work.

Kudos to Simon, his discipline is motivating and inspiring!

Awesome work losing 100 lbs! It's no joke being super committed to turning your life around. I hope he finds balance and new purpose once he reaches his goals! Also, I just want to say, I really appreciate the music on some of these videos! It's my second time noticing the GOAT Ludwig's work being used to build some suspense. Shout out to the Editor making these videos and knowing when to use a great score!

"I figured if I added too many steps to my weight loss, and overcomplicate things, I would have a higher chance of failure" *has an alarm set for every 15 minutes*

I feel like I'm almost exactly in his position. About to turn 30 this year, went from 310 - 259 (today) in about 6 months. It feels surreal and I cant wait to keep going. I'll be honest tho, the last 13lbs lost were cause I was sick for about a month and couldn't workout or eat much, so most weight loss last month was muscle and I'm scared to gain it all back in fat instead. But this dude is so inspiring.

I really appreciate how Simon is so truthful

Love this dude! Wish I could take a year off to get my health back in check, sounds amazing!

The mythical type A personality. A personal trainers dream client. The perfect client. The guy that has the willpower to do anything it takes. The guy that can stick to a boring routine for months or years. It isn’t necessary but it makes getting results pretty goddamn easy. The Sauna is increasing his IGF-1 by at least 4 fold if he’s doing that daily. Research has been pretty solid on this.

A lot of people are criticizing him but you must understand, the only thing that matters is that he's comfortable doing this, it's amazing that a guy can lose weight however intensely and still get criticized. This is what works for him. I started at 339 and currently at 281. Its hard to lose weight.

Especially if you've been obese ~ 300 lbs range for that long, it's not even a diet or physical exercise change, it's a lifestyle change This guy said he been 350 lbs for all his life. I'm at 270 lbs dropped 15lbs and still going I feel you bro

This was amazing man. Very very inspiring.

OMG he is so funny, had some great laughs watching this video! Love Simon, and great progress you've made!

sure its awesome that he lost the weight but the truly inspiring thing would be to do this WHILE STILL WORKING AND HAVING A LIFE!!! this really doesnt give hope to the 9-5 people that need to change

Very impressed with the weight loss, great work. I do have a question though. Did you have to quit your job to accomplish this, or do you work from home somehow? I don't see how you can start your day that early, maintain that strict eating and workout schedule, and somehow work a full time job.

I'll be 51 in December about a year and a half ago I was around 380 pounds now I am between 320 to 330 not bad but I need both of my knees replaced and my right hip is on it's way out just from compensating for my knees. I was in the 8th grade the first time I twisted my left knee and then 15 or more times during double days football practice before my freshman year I finally told the coaches one more time and I'm done got my GED at 15. My right knee has been a one and done complete dislocation it did the Zorro sign being young and dumb in my mid twenties at home not work but I was at work two day's later doing asphalt repair cement ditch sandblasting and crack filing stupid right just two day's if you don't have bills to pay or family to feed working10 hour days without any pain meds not even now and I have people telling me how you didn't have this or that company pay to get things fixed when the injuries were not work related. To top it all off you try and get help from social security and or disability benefits and get lied to and denied don't tell them you want to get medical procedures done so you'll be able to go back into the workforce again and provide for yourself because if there's anything that can be done to fix it whether or not you can afford it your not disabled. Sorry for the rant just sick of all the BS if I was a horse someone would have taken out behind the barn and scratch my chin a bit thin put one right between my eye's.

Imagine the progress he'd make if he cut back to 2-4 gallons of water a day and started counting his calories. The only way he's getting away with fat loss is the sheer amount of work he's putting in and how bulky his muscles are. This isn't for the average obese person. I can't take a single thing from this video other than "put in the effort".
