Keep the channel and keep posting about you're passions. Not every business needs to be a billion dollar business and not every channel needs to be Jeff Nippard. A lot of people share your interests, fitness and fantasy. Your channel name encompasses both. Limit your obligation without letting it go. Not everything needs to be an A+. Perfection is the enemy of progress. Just keep posting.

@@TheJackedNerd. , It's xmas break. How about a vlog? What are you reading? What are you watching? What are you bench pressing? New years resolutions? Share your interests. 😊

I'd recommend using the second channel for fitness that way you're not mixing the type of content on the channel. I have already subscribed to both, but whatever you decide will be fine. I understand not having time during school so if you need to just study and be present do that especially with the extra time you need for the gym.

babe wake up bakir posted a new video. But for real IDC post whatever you want when you want. Its always a fun surprise to see a new video rather its book focused or not.

I understand the need to focus more on yourself and reorganize your priorities… Education is easily far more important than uploading book reviews! I’m also in college and I completely understand your decision! I’m also reading Malazan and I also need someone to talk to about these books because they are amazing lol So yeah, I completely understand and support you :)

No, don't abandon the channel. Let it evolve. You're Jacked and you're a Nerd. I say keep doing you.

Appreciate it, I just don’t there’s that much crossover so probably going to separate the content into 2 channels

Congrats on the move into school btw. As for content just do whatever you’re into the most and I’d say post as regular or irregular as you’d like. I think honestly the mix of content is somewhat unique if you’re looking for that niche but otherwise separate out into two channels but either way is good, let people choose to watch what they’re interested in if it’s all one channel. Also I’d say with feeling uncomfortable with not being 100% knowledgeable I would just say it feels that way but eventually you realize that’s 99% of ppl, it’s the advice, opinions, etc of the individual with their experience that most find engaging or helpful.

I like videos like this where. Someone talks about whatever, while they do something else in the background. But do whatever you want I think everyone will keep watching.

Thanks man

I’m here for the fantasy content, and don’t really care how regular it is, I’ll watch it whenever you post it

My input, is continue thinking like you do; this ism't a job. Honestly, make whatever choices fulfill you. If you lik seeing progression, make choices that support progression. I'm behind you whatever you decide :) That being said, I'm not that famliar with the algorithm. I just watch videos. Personally, restarting seems like a hassle to me, but let me draw parellels to programming. If I redo a project, it is SO much easier the second time around now that I understand the problem more. I am usually glad I restarted too as my code is typically cleaner and much more succinct. But ultimately, do what feels best for you. We support you :)

Dude, your reputation seems unique. You love to read fantasy while getting ripped. This is a winning formula for success! You raise awareness to being physically healthy while becoming mentally stronger as well. And you can review books well and without fluff. I saw your review on Rebel's Creed by Daniel Green, good work! Kindly continue this healthy lifestyle of yours. For sure, you will go far especially if you find a way to link your book reviews to YPP. YPP is the abbreviation for KZread Partner Program. KZread will pay you for creating quality contents regularly - either it's about physical fitness, book reviews or both. It is your choice. Good luck, Bakir!

@@TheJackedNerd. They are to some extent. Reading fantasy books challenges our imagination. When you challenge your imagination, it gives you the proper motivation to improve yourself more both mentally and physically. Categorically-wise, to avoid confusion for your fans, it seems better to separate the book reviews from getting ripped. It looks like the nerdest thing of all if you bring a Malazan book inside a gym and talk about it while having 50 reps of hammer curls LOL.

Hey, you might remember me from Reddit a couple of months ago, but I’m thrilled you decided to follow your passion to create a fitness KZread channel. I’m nearly done Caroline Girvan’s epic program to get used to the gym again and follow the other KZreadrs you recommended.

I wouldn't worry ive also been slacking at Uni, like it will get better

My 2cents. I think, just upload what you want, the channel is "The Jacked Nerd". You can absolutely, just upload both types of content or mix it. I.e Backworkout video and then maybe you do a "here is all my favourite book series video" or a here is all the books I own / my bookshelf video + here is what I have in my gym back. They're not super polar opposite activities. I think just upload on this channel the content you want. People are going to like both or only watch one type of video, but not everyone will who wants the seperate channel will actually go to the seperate channel.

I like your book reviews since I don't really have anyone to talk about that a lot in my day to day life, non of my friends had read wheel of time and is cool to see other people opinions at least in video form, just finish wheel of time and was thinking of going into Malazan next, I can totally see what you mean by seeing people in the gym that can use some advice lol since I see the same thing, just want to direct them to see some videos of Sean Nalewanyj or something, and there is a lot of crap about fitness on youtube so there can be an audience for good content , I personally wouldn't mind seeing both types of videos on the same channel but not sure how that works with your existing audience

I would love a fantasy and fitness channel! Why not? It seems you have a lot of passions so a channel with only your name and various topics would be a lot of fun. I love going to the gym and I’m by no means a pro, there’s so much info out there so it would be cool if you could share basic tips like how to make a routine, diet, best way to make it all work. Real, honest and authentic.

I joined because of your WOT Amazon reviews (you were the only legit/thorough reviewer. Like I learned something from your vids😂) I’d say make college your top priority. It’s a fun experience & you should take advantage of it. W/ the vids, have you thought abt finding a workout partner that’s also into vlogging? Maybe they can help share the load as you build the second channel. Kinda how Maxx & his friends did it early on in VA. Your book vids are top notch, (motivated me to pick up 1 & read😂) so don’t worry if they are irregular. I’d say set a realistic goal long term so ppl know what to expect. Like 1 book vid a month or whatever. Overall life is full of transitions so don’t be too hard on yourself, things will change. You’ll do great dude! Best of luck🤙🏾

why can't it be fantasy and fitness both? just post what you feel like! I am into both so I'll watch either way! A suggestion for a video; maybe you can do a fantasy rec videos. They won't have to be super in depth like a review, you can just say what you like about them and viewers can judge if they want to read too.

Of course your school should, no MUST be top priority. If you want to do the fitness channel then great. If you are concerned that others know more than you do just present it from YOUR viewpoint. As in what works for you. Or what you found was helpful or not helpful. Don't devalue your experience. By the look of you, you must be doing something right. Do the fantasy as a stand alone thing and only do it when you feel like you have something to say. Otherwise it will become stale and forced. Your subscribers will wait for you.

Dude, I really enjoyed your wheel of time videos. I had just finished the book series at the time and was searching all over youtube for opinions and discussions about it. And a gorgeous hunk talking about it was definitely something new so that was fun. But lets be real. Fantasy book discussions and gym videos are just not a thing. I know youtube is very saturated and you're trying to find your niche but that's not really a combo. People interested in books won't care about your workouts and people who care about gym stuff probably can't even read (I'm kidding, I know that's a stereotype, but it's a little true too). I'm also sorry to tell you that your insight into the stories isn't that deep, though that will probably change as you grow and read more. Also your voice is a little annoying so don't do speakovers like that Rand video. But more importantly, think of the numbers. How many people, of those who are interested in fantasy books (which is a relatively small industry) are also interested in watching some hunk show off his biceps in the same video? All you're going to attract this way are some gay fantasy readers who want to watch a jacked hunk without being completely bored by what he says. Apparently that's about 1000 people. Anyway, I'm sorry if I was harsh, I meant it all in good faith and truly think it's some of the most honest advice you'll receive, judging by the comment section. If you're having fun creating this content then more power to you, just don't let it distract you from what matters which is your real professional future. Wish you the best.

They just don't mix. If he were just a jacked guy but his focus was fantasy books that would be ok. But he makes his "jackness" part of his brand, it's in the name for heaven's sake.
