An Introduction to Fitness for NORMAL People - In The Age of Social Media​

Nov 30, 2024


This video is designed to work as an introduction to fitness for those just getting started. Specifically, it is aimed at those who want to get into shape without making it their entire personalty. Because I feel that, currently, fitness is being misrepresented online.

At the start of this video I demonstrate this hypothesis by searching “fitness” on Instagram. The result is countless photos of hugely enlarged female derrieres, and a bunch of photos of guys completely jacked up on PEDs. I don’t think either of these tings equate to fitness and I don’t think they are particularly helpful in terms of motivation or guidance. YouTube isn’t a lot better - with so much fitness content being aimed at people who want to look like Mr Olympia. Or having this insane grind mentality.

It IS possible to start getting into fitness WITHOUT having to make it your entire personality. Without getting completely carried away and taking silly shortcuts. While keeping your sanity intact.

I hope that this video can serve as an introduction to fitness for NORMAL people. Offering some basic advice and starting points and some warnings about the challenges that you might face along the way - especially in the age of social media.

Let me know your thoughts below. I’d love to hear your tips for newcomers starting out their fitness journeys! Good luck!

How to Bodybuild Without Bodybuilding​

Dec 21, 2024

In this video, I discuss how to “bodybuild without bodybuilding.”

What I mean by that, is that you can build the kind of muscle more associated with casual bodybuilding without needing to fully commit to bodybuilder-style training, or a bodybuilding lifestyle.

TO do this, you need to understand the basic triggers that cause hypertrophy and the best techniques that can really work for stimulating growth.
Bodybuilders may disagree on the best methods for building bigger muscle, but some popular options include training past failure and using “intensity techniques” to create a massive pump; or utilizing techniques like lengthened partials. At a certain point, you learn to feel the kinds of moves that are likely to trigger growth. It’s then a simple matter to ensure you get just enough stimulus before each workout ends.

Combining this with other types of training is easy - because you’re already stimulating the muscle with other tasks and you’re already achieving a certain amount of balance in terms of your strength and movement patterns.

That means you can use some of these basic techniques for just a few sets and reps at the end of a workout - and it will be enough to see some targeted muscle growth! It doesn’t take long and it takes nothing away from your training. So why not get a body that LOOKS like an action hero AND moves like one?
