I will just have my surgery by next Saturday. I'm following with your steps as well. Did you recovery well? Thank you

love it! keep up the great work Jack!

what are your thoughts on a minicut Jack? Do you recommend one? I’m planning to do it for 3-5 weeks after just getting back from holidays and losing aiming at a rate of weight loss of 1% bw a week?

first

Hey Jack, been following your videos since I came across the hernia vids, I’m 2 weeks post op laparoscopic inguinal hernia, feel pretty good. Normally get around 20,000 steps a day. I’m around 7-8 thousand now losing my mind.. just wondering how long until you felt normal again? Unfortunately I’m a roofer so I’m out of commission for a little bit. See the dr tomorrow hopefully he gives ok to do a little more, but I don’t want to push it as I need to get back to work. I see you lifting, I’m petrified to do any of that right now lol… last year my new year resolution was walking, I wanted to start lifting again this year I guess it’s gonna have to be a February resolution. Just wanted to know when you started feeling comfortable again. Thanks Happy New Year!!

Just what I needed to hear over the holidays! 🔥 Happy new years 🥳🎉 Thanks for an awesome year Jack, so excited to see what you get up to in 2025 👏

I had to come to your channel Jack, watching again. Life has been crazy lately. I want to say thank you so much. Your videos got me through my surgery for my upper dominant arm. I literally watched all your videos. You" ll get through your surgery like a champ. I changed my life because of you. I watched your transformation in your bodybuilding competition, it was inspiring! Happy to say i am pretty much back to healthy. I don't have the strength yet in my arm, but I have the mobility back! I am so grateful for your channel. Happy New Year! To you and your family. Much love from Canada🎉🥳

The opening almost had me

Great info and vid 💪🏽🫡

This was the best advice I’ve heard on this particular subject. Thank you for sharing!

I kept it locked in bro i messed up so bad in 2022 on the holidays and it caused me to gain 112lbs in 8 months i lost it all 2023-2024 and this time around i didnt binge on any of the holidays. But tbh January 4th is my B day ima indulge a bit ive been really good

Hell yeah!

Fire perspective 👏🏾

I've been binge watching your videos.

Jack! I like this approach, not changing much and continue to do what works. For me I am going on a 6 week cut to lose about 8 lbs. After the cut ill be upping my calories and continuing to workout and eat clean as much as possible with room to snack when I want or have that nice dinner out.

Great advice, as always!

Thanks Jack!

I can really appreciate him continuing to include her in the videos even though she just drains all the energy out of the room. Jack is so upbeat and positive.

You look incredible m8 like a specimen.

1400 calories for me, a 5'3 woman, that's in my late 30s, eating at least 90g of protein a day melts fat off of me. Just the sticking with it is key and I need to keep tracking once I drop the weight. Also greek yogurt is great as I love ice cream but eat greek yogurt instead.

Wish I had started using a belt earlier. I got a hernia on each side a few years apart. Really set me back. It’s been like 10 years since the last one and it still gets sore and I’m always conscious about it

Watching this while enjoying a bowl of popcorn. Don't worry, I'm 5'11" and 150 lbs. Lol

Im cooking this tonight

Asta, Bro? Let's go!!

I'm 900

That’s true 🙏👍

Jack I am 48 and in the best shape of my life 6'2 189 around 12-15% bodyfat Had major accident 12 years ago. Was at 310lbs.I am now hyperfused on my nutrition. I love your channel and the way you interact with your audience. I wanted to tell you your physique is still extremely impressive. in this video. I know how hard it can be to go from peak performance then have life throw us some curveballs but you are a special kind of person with drive and focus along with compassion and kindness. I don't usually reach out to you tube influencers I just think you are a special more compassionate influencer in your field and you are doing great. The hardest thing for me is not getting validation for all my hard work...I know truly understand it is more likely coming from other peoples insecurities and I must stay focused and understand that and validate myself everyday...Merry Christmas

Why would anyone listen to someone who has red sauce with a nandos 😂

so ya go to dublin (ireland) and go to nando's , need i say anymore

How much to send me the Zelda gashapon duplicates? 😜

Me left and right inguinal hernia repair 7d from now after my surgery day 1st i had a crazy in pain i can walk during that day but its hard to stand up lying down to my bed now i feel my left side if im going up or sit uncomfortable maybe just a mesh still i have less pain in my stomach due to the gas but no more swelling only ihad truly pain now in my testicle swelling hope will be ok

I had the same surgery 5 days ago. I watch your video at least once a day and find it a perfect guide since my experience closely matched yours. I am 73 so I think my healing is going to be slightly slower. Ice advice is so helpful.

💯 yes !! I am glad you did good with surgery make you definitely appreciate what you can do .what part Florida may ask ,we go to Clearwater beach every year.

Dude let’s go I’ve been in the same spot with school. I’m begging you to do a 5 day split like you said or to at least post a good 5 day split🙏🏻😭

great bit of info for my new years cut; Since it's so hard to avoid, I always use the holidays as my scheduled bulk period, but a steady meal plan to get out of it at the end in the spring is always a necessity. Thanks Jack, Have a Merry Christmas, and a Shredded new year!

If you ate all those bananas the dumps would be legendary

Glad to see you’re back at it man, I’m a big fan of your videos

So excited that you’re back, and to be following your rebuild in the new year! 🔥 Currently injured myself, go gonna try and come back and build some strength in January too, so would love tips on that throughout the rebuild series 😁🔥

nice video man

So fit and not on roids takes the win?

Your fizeek looks pretty similar to mine now except your biceps are much larger. I am also 6’ I think you are too. I’d like to see if I can recomp along with you at the same rate. What is your training split?

Eggs and toast for a post workout meal. I can dig it.

I’m so excited to see how quickly your body bounces back!

‘The Rebuild’ is lowkey a fire title for your recomp series 🔥

I had mine two days ago. It's CO2 they 'pump' your abdomen with. Not 'air' like a tire. Your body absorbs it, eventually. Walk as much as you can and hydrate.

I’m going to get on a similar cut like you. 2400-2500 calories. How do you feel with 167g of carbs for your lifts? You feel good?

How is the surgery recovery going in regards to heavier lower body training/big 3?

I was just looking thru random videos about hernia recovery when I found yours. My surgery is coming up on January 7th and I was hoping to find something that would help guide my recovery. Is this the best place to send you the occasional random questions?

Hi! What's the name of the hotel you stayed at? Nice to see a washing machine, uncommon for tokyo hotels.

I’m supposed to go to Disney world 3 weeks after surgery… what is your thoughts?
