Some notes: ✘✘✘ 7 Mistakes ✘✘✘ 1. *Lengthy rest periods* -- Shorten it. Do explosive (faster) movements. 2. *BCAAs* - they spike insulin = never burn fat 3. *Cardio before weight training* - light warmup before weight training 4. *Too much isolation* - move all parts of your body 5. *Training late in the day* = less fat burning effects. Do your workouts in the morning. 6. *Frying the CNS* - not getting enough sleep = sign of CNS overstimulation. Tone down your workout and do proper activation. 7. *Eating right after a workout* - Wait for at least an hour to eat because even after exercising, you are still burning fat.

[@Total_Body_Fitness_USA]

Great video and as an exercise physiologist I agree 100%! I wrote a book back in 1998 that clearly explains the reason to NOT lift weights after a cardio session. Use a sauna to get heat in the muscles and/or ride a bike, treadmill, rowing machine, elliptical for 5-7 minutes, stretch a little and then hit the weights doing compound exercises and leaving the smaller muscle groups for last in order to take full advantage of the higher testosterone. I have always emphasized morning workouts on an empty stomach as well and refrain from eating for at least an hour after workout. Take advantage of EPOC as well and by not eating your insulin levels remain low and growth hormone high if you fasted overnight. A lot to this and you hit the nail on the head with this one! Keep up the good work!

[@faithhopelove9176]

You have helped me so much Thomas. Since January 6..30lbs down. You are so easy to understand. You've been my personal trainer since then. Lol. I know you are a busy man and probably won't see this but I want to say Thank you so very much. I've battled this all of my life. Never been able to do it..stick to it. Id love to meet you one day to just say thank you and maybe even a hug. Lol YOU ARE AWESOME. YOU HELPED ME SAVE MY LIFE. God bless.

[@TaralDance]

Appreciate your authenticty! I'd love to learn about abdominal cold packs and/or abdominal hot/cold packs for potentially targeting Visceral Fat!

[@ThomasDeLauerOfficial]

Sounds like a future video idea. stay tuned!

[@optimizewithscience8883]

Something that works for me and adds some variety to my workouts is that when I try to gain muscles, I have long breaks but when I try to shed off some fed, I do a lot of supersets.

[@ThomasDeLauerOfficial]

[@joetheriault286]

Hello Thomas, Thank you for continued postings. I view the most recent videos as an evolution to previous content. Can things get confusing or seem contradictory? Perhaps so. I find you positively update and clarify as you see the need. I appreciate your ethics and honesty with regard to sponsors. I would ask you to ignore some of the negative remarks I’ve seen in previous videos. Having a KZbin channel or social networking profile / websites can unfortunately open oneself to trolls. The BCAA question is interesting and I look forward to your reply. Stay safe, stay positive! All the best to your family!!!

[@joeymcfadden8538]

Thank you! I learned a lot. I'd been trained to kill my arms my knocking out bicep/tricep work and THEN hit the bench press. Made my arms bigger quickly but now that I think about it, as you say, weight loss was minimal to none. I'm gonna try it this way! Thanks Thomas.

[@ae4948]

Question for Thomas. Vibration plate vs foam rolling, which is better for lymph movement? What are the areas of the body and how to properly use a foam roller? At what frequency (vibration level) and how much time should we use the vibration plate (that is, if it is worthy)? Thanks, Thomas, spouse (a physician) and I (public health education and background) are both science nerds (duh) and really enjoy your explanation of the science behind everything you address. Looking forward to your input on this.

[@spicano6309]

+10 for the Nutrition + Lifting checklist, since this is my priority. +4 for the Nutrition + Cardio, since this is for my off-lifting days routine, however remains valuable. More videos like these. Thanks!

[@Miranda-zj5lb]

Awesome tips! Thank you for creating. A video of some at home weight training work outs would be mucho appreciated 💪😀

[@Yourfriendinendtimes]

Right? I've just been doing pushups, focusing on proper form and doing them perfectly (I'm still doing knee pushups until I can do 50!! Its not easy, but my form is perfect, nose touching floor almost every time!) And at least 60 to 100 squats. I'll hold a gallon of vigegar or a bottle of oil as weight to hold in front of me, I need that counterbalance for squats. I also incorporate planks and upsidedown planks, hollow body isometric hold too. I want to start incorporating more. Theres a home workout app, the icon is red with a guy doing a pushup. It seems to have more moves you ca do at home. I got my routine from a nice fellow in Chicago, his channel is MinusTheGym. He is very humble and good looking too lol. Good luck!! Hardest part is motivation and staying consistent for me personally.

[@justadudebrowsin5807]

What do you think about supersets and isometrics? Most of what I do is planche and front lever training, and I superset everything to save time, but also because I usually feel ready to go into the next set after 10-30seconds instead of waiting for a few minutes (as other people suggests, which I'm happy to hear you contrast in this video).

[@giovannibarbato7732]

[@scooterbean970]

Thomas I ve been watching you for years. And I know that it's advised by the KZbin experts that if you want to get 'clicks' your thumbnail has to be a goofy face to get attention, I know they advise this because I have my own keto recipe KZbin channel and have read this advice myself. I noticed you starting to do this about a year or two ago and it's SO below you and your content. You are a good looking man with such an incredible story and you really need to make your thumbnails to reflect how much class and knowledge you have instead of looking ridiculous. still fan though! You're an incredible person. Just a thought.

[@cathrynwilson6949]

What do you think about 2 a days? I am a prior college athlete and enjoy exercise both in the morning and the evening. It is stress relieving and I have the time.

[@esmevez9260]

Great video as always!! I would love to know more about the central nervous system!

[@mlbf4700]

I think it's best I keep working out in the evening, especially if cortisol is required to burn fat. I'm relaxed in the morning but by the end of the day, the kids have irritated me and I'm really stressed so I definitely have more cortisol at night and it's better to workout than to try relaxing with wine. Workout when you're alert and motivated regardless of the clock.

[@carlospadilla715]

[@helenahandkart1857]

[@aaronmund5120]

It is important to think about what you are trying to do when lifting. For example I have days when I lift heavy with longer rest periods because I want to burn more fat when sitting on my butt. If you wait allowing the creatine to build back up and do fewer reps you will get stronger.

[@clintdeckert211]

Another informative video. Thanx Thomas*

[@aaronkika]

Big up Thomas, your content motivates me as brand new youtuber in fitness field!!!

[@rachelminneapolis]

I'm going to try this. I've been doing 30 min of level 4 stairs 6 days/week and have barely seen any weight loss or transformation. I usually lift after and only do abs or only do pull ups. I'll try stretching, 5 min warm up, variety of weight lifting, then cardio.

[@wpherigo1]

[@adityabirsingh2601]

So I'm on keto and was planning to do a 36 hours fast can I workout in morning in fasted state and stay empty stomach without losing lean muscle mass for like 24 hours?...

[@nhlanhlasibutha5929]

Can you please help me with a Monday to Friday training routine that can help to to loose weight and gain muscles at the same time 🙏🙏

[@CarbageMan]

Okay, I was taking my shake with me to the gym (when it was open) and drinking it right away. I'll wait a while and/or take a walk first. I was probably eating too much by doing resistance training after work then having the shake, then a lean meal, then a steak in a couple hours. I think I'll wait an hour to have the shake then begin preparing the lean meal, and try not to fit in the steak (and cruciferous, etc.)

[@Garetado]

You've mentioned in the past that's it's best to workout (weight train) in as deep of a fasted state as possible. For me that's in the early evening/late afternoon. This seems to contradict what you're saying here?

[@sofienabidi7242]

hi...so since you recommend working out in the morning, shall it be on empty stomach or after snack or breakfast?

[@DanielGaeta13]

If you work out later in the day is it different if you work overnights and wake up and workout in what would be your morning when its everyone else's afternoon/evening?

[@miguelmejia4656]

yes it doesn't apply to all of us

[@Yourfriendinendtimes]

its all relative. just workout in the beginning of YOUR day. :)

[@yarakhalil5293]

so shouldnt I do leg day, upper body day etc. to loose weight/ burn fat? Should i train like every part of my body by trainig the biggest muscles?

[@Dan-up1ut]

Hi Thomas. Does taking a high quality citruline malate 2-1 with water spike insulin at all when taken in the morning during fasting period? I'll usually take this and coffee with monkfruit sweetener in the morning until fast breaking time.

[@Elyga.]

regarding BCAA, maybe it turns off fat burning, but it speeds up my recovery rate. So if I want to get stronger regardless of putting some fat on shouldn't I use BCAA? Especially my potency gets so much better after BCAA.

[@markhess9393]

Thanks Thomas ! Chomps are really good. I love the Italian ones. They are like a beef jerky sticks, but not greasy, tastes better, less calories, cheaper, and way more healthy.

[@kimberlywillis9691]

Thomas - what do you recommend for prep and recovery for donating blood? During my donations the phlebotomists recommend I sip on juice and have a high-carb snack afterward. What's a good alternative so I can replenish my body without spiking my insulin?

[@greglucas9012]

I take protein and other supplements that have 5-8mg of bcaas included. Is that bad? Is it at a harmful level, particularly when trying to lose weight?

[@Colmez8]

If BCAA spike insuline,how to eat Eggs for Keto ? Eggs also consuming Leucine a lot or maybe Beef ?

[@johnmcdonald3846]

Hi Thomas what about Perfect aminos for after a workout in a fasted state. I train around 4.30 am in morning and have to perfect aminos after I finish training around 5.30 am I typically break my fast around 12pm or 1pm The company that makes perfect aminos say it’s safe and doesn’t break the fast as it doesn’t raise the insulin levels.. any advice would be awesome.. I do a 16/8 by the way cheers John

[@KimberlyLetsGo]

I don't have the patience to do that 3 minutes rest between workouts. I like doing PHA training. Keeps my energy going and makes for a heck of a hard workout.

[@elihowie5421]

Hey how do you advise on being able to train when fasted but in the morning? I want to be able to get the benefits of cortisol and testo but my fasting hours won't allow for it if I want to break the fast and eat about an hour after exercise.

[@Yourfriendinendtimes]

try changing your fasting schedule, like starting the fast later? He says in a lot of videos that fasting needs to be spontaneous and not consistent for maximum results, e.g. no IF every day etc.

[@Gamingwithrantz]

What about the amino acids in collagen peptides powder?

[@melissakmiddleton]

Hey what if you aren’t as interested in reps / strength but you want to do cardio before your weights so that you burn more during your weight training? I have noticed that I burn more when I do my cardio first so when I’m more interested in leaning up I tend to do cardio before weights.

[@ΆρηςΑλεξίου-ο8ω]

So helpful. Thank you! 👋🏻 😉

[@CelestialDragonGoddess-25]

For someone who is beginner to do fasted workouts ill be good to start with my weight sessions fasted? Add cardio later into my regime.

I've been taking bcaas as a post workout. What do you suggest for post workout source for muscle?

[@dv5918]

Great video Thomas! Always love the info. Video idea that hit me while searching for butter replacements for my daughter who is allergic to dairy, egg, and tree nuts (not almonds). You’ve done vegetarian videos in the past, so I’m betting there will be some interest... what is a good non-dairy option that’s not total inflammatory garbage?

[@Joao-ur7ey]

I was aways skeptical about eating right after a workout, because I never feel actually ANY hunger after it. It's was just like the sensation of you forcing yourself to eat on the morning after wake up.

[@RegineBrady]

Thomas, in another video you’ve done, I’ve heard you say to eat high carb or lean protein right after a workout and to NOT “wait an hour after your workout and then eat.” Which one is it?

[@Yourfriendinendtimes]

Whichever one fits in with what your goals are!! I think I know what video you're talking about. If I remember right, that video was about maximizing muscle building. This one is for fat loss.

[@aaronmund5120]

It's all about the goals. I loft to build muscle so I burn more fat while sitting and I enjoy lifting heavy. There is also a video of his that explains why it is good to rest between sets. This info could be used to compliment a fasting day or a day you want to burn, but ignored when you want to break a plateau.

[@jackpowell594]

I really enjoy his channel but the more I watch the more I'm left utterly confused. It seems there's a hell of a lot of contradiction there more I watch

[@Southernburrito]

My takeaway was the post workout shake/meal. It's always been a debatable. Absorption isn't a momentarily immediate process anyhow, am I right.?

[@neidavega9023]

Could i ask why my legs get bigger when i do squats? For the longest time, i refused to do squats because i hated as a woman, my legs would just swell. But now that im 40, ive been doing squats because it is such a good compound excercise.

[@thomaslauridsen3161]

Hi Thomas! I hope you will answer 1 question. Not eating after workout? does that also apply for when you are training at the end of your fast? and want to break your fast right after training? best regards Thomas, Denmark

[@duelforce9762]

So could I take bcaa in the morning before I work out and then no longer take it?

[@dannigirl8577]

Wow soo helpfull i was using evolution nutrition shred thinking it woudnt spike my insulin cause of the sweeteners.Im currently doing the keto version of the warrior diet.further down the line maybe doing the keto warrior diet only weekends,and continue through the rest of the week with keto. I normally train boxing 2 hours in the am wich i can do fasted as long as i have coffee b4,then a couple of hours in the pm one hour anaerobic,second hour aerobic i woud love to know if i can eat some high glycemic carbs before i train in the afternoon Thanks again for your posts completly life changing i feel so much more energized i dont get along with complex carbs i get really tired and bloated.☀️

[@meredithscollon4945]

In this video you talk about negative effects of leucine for fat loss, but state it is great for building muscle by stacking it another video. Is there another video that goes into this more?

[@cadeyrndragheim22]

So how about we just do some squats or pushups between isolation exercises with higher rest period? Like, 1 set of dumbbell rows, then 3 minutes rest and you do 10 pushups in between. At least i like that i can do more reps after a longer resting period than a shorter one. Then again, not sure if shorter or longer rest periods make any difference for muscle gain/strength.

[@tauceti8341]

Dang! My new tub of whey has BCAA's -- I've noticed a lot of them advertising it to the point its actually hard to find whey WITHOUT the added bcaa's That's really got me bummed out.

[@KnightWicked]

What about bcaas in protein powders like naturally occurring not added

[@Yourfriendinendtimes]

I don't think it matters

[@laurencevirtue-deshaies9379]

Great content; thanks!

[@ambikalokesh4932]

Thank you 🤩

[@GuacIsExtra99]

Are bcaa’s the same as the amino acids in a protein shake?

[@Yourfriendinendtimes]

No. Generally speaking, BCAAs are what they are, Branch Chain Amino Acids, and the proteins in your shake may overlap with some of those proteins. Its most likely not enough of an overlap to worry about.

[@ARmarketing]

tip #7 is GOLDEN

[@Normanskie]

Question: I am 68, type 2 and when I did Aikido it took me about 8 days to recover my legs except when I took BCAA powder and whey protein. Same with just 2 minutes cross trainers takes about 2 days and that is just two moderate minutes nothing heavy. How do I put up with it and continue to exercise? Brilliant info by the way, I am hooked.

[@brookesmith1550]

Can we have BCAAs with our meal? Is that ok? My insulin is spiked anyway with the protein I am eating.

[@heydjplaythtsong]

So does that mean I can’t have whey protein isolate, since they have a higher concentration of BCAAs?

[@DesiArms]

Grt video Thomas. I hv a question: at @9.31 you said catecholamines starts fat burning. However based on my previous knowledge when you are stressed that also release cortisol and catecholamines but makes you fat. Isn’t it contradictory. Can u please expand?

Hey Thomas. I've been a fan of yours a long time. I've been keto for about a year and dropped 65 lbs. With the recent events however I've never been more stressed than ever and I'm resorting to stress eating at night because I can't sleep. Do you have any strategies to combat this? Thanks!

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

So youre saying to wait an hour to consume protein along with a little fruit to gently spike your insulin after a workout is ideal?

[@daviddavid9377]

I want to ask since you said in earlier videos to immediately eat after a workout when fasting, does what you said in the video on not eating after a workout still applies for fasted workouts?

[@hanknelson3231]

Fat emulsifiers, ox bile, and choline are extremely powerful as they help fat to loosen up, liquify, so it can be transported out of the fat cell by hormones and enzymes. It take about 30 days of high doses 3000 mg of choline a day, but has a very dramatic effect.

I usually fast around once a week and workout (lifting) in the morning everyday throughout the week. Would you still recommend working out in a fasted state even if you aren't doing a 16+ hr fast?

[@oKrazzer]

for weight loss, yes. if your goal is to build muscle, it can be a yes or no. If being fasted doesn't interfere with your energy levels, no problem at all. You should aim to workout in the end of your fast in this case (explained in previous videos).

[@miguelmejia4656]

thomas can we take zinc or boron after a workout or before?

[@JimmyJaxJellyStax]

I find the injury risk is higher doing tons of weight training then a good run after - maybe the cardio shouldn't be epic HIIT intense after weights because of muscle stiffness
