7 Changes You Can Make to live a Healthier, Leaner, and Happier life!

[@leaderoftaehyungnation9766]

Having fun whilst exercising makes it easier to lose weight!!

[@blogilates]

sure does!

[@Thefitty]

Any what activity would that be, Eugene?

[@tiebz123]

+theFitty dance and go crazy!

[@Thefitty]

I hear you on that one! Dancing is one of my favourite exercises, but it doesn't make me sweat that much which makes me wonder if I'm getting in a good workout...

[@tiebz123]

***** hm I guess but its fun Not sure what else lol

[@elenaguzman5900]

I initially got into fitness just to lose weight even when I found your channels and programs. It wasn't I stopped worrying about the results and started working out as a hobby and that I actually felt good about working out that I ACTUALLY saw results and not just on the scale. Now I don't care about the scale, I just want to get my sweat on. Thanks Cassey you made me love myself and my workouts, keep up the good work 😘

[@blogilates]

Love you and thank you.

[@KL-bg8fi]

blogilates I love to dance especially hip hop and dance is great exercise and super fun & fabulous :)

[@deeb6374]

feel exactly the same. The more you enjoy it the better you feel about yourself

[@torbellina]

Hi beautiful person scrolling through the comments💫💕

[@nta180]

Elina Hi how you doin

[@chocolatebunnywhirlywoo4760]

Elina hi wonderful person delivering happiness.💕💗❤️

[@nta180]

Elina Hi there🤗🤗🤗

[@mjrubio410]

I love this happy comments!! Hi Elina!! 👋

[@itzzcaleb2932]

Elina Lies I'm ugly Lol jk

[@willatastic]

the KZbin spotlight rewind of 2016 anyone? I saw Cassey and I literally screamed that I woke my mom from her sleep...

[@blogilates]

hahahha awwww

[@willatastic]

blogilates you're welcome! wait, are you on the other side of the world? it's like daytime here...

[@amlour28]

yep, me too!!!

[@ThisGuyTed]

Yes! I was so excited I couldn't hold it!!

[@purple-giraffe7862]

With the sleep thing idk why but when I went to sleep and woke up at decent times I noticed that I was less hungry throughout the day than I am when I don't get decent hours of sleep. And the second is really true too lol. I absolutely hate doing basic weight loss workouts such as jumping jacks and such. I started do dancing workouts to lose weight and it helps a lot and actually makes me want to workout everyday :)

[@Kinga-zx7yc]

You literally changed my life Cassey. You revaluated my goals, and you tought me how to be happy. I don't know how can I say thank you for everything. And even if you won't see this. Thank you for being a part of my life

[@linlupin]

For you guys who are afraid of needles, or getting your blood drawn, ask your doctor if you can lay down. Last time I went to get my blood drawn, I scared 3 nurses and a doctor since they all thought I was going to faint, but laying down while it happens helps out SO. MUCH.

[@kittytrax6156]

Jacklin Carter thanks :( I have a fear

[@blogilates]

Good idea. I hate needles so much too.

[@karenjohnson2245]

Another option is to ask them to use the butterfly - it's a much smaller needle. Takes longer but doesn't hurt AT ALL.

[@linlupin]

Karen Chinnery I've never heard about that! O: Karen, you might've just saved my next blood test experience.

[@user-tg8ri2de5x]

Jacklin Carter I'm in the process of working on eliminating my phobia of blood tests. I'm in pre-med and have to eliminate it if I have any hope of becoming a doctor. What has worked for me so far is working on identifying WHY I fear it so much, for me it was the fear of feeling it suck up my blood. I also recommend asking them to use a butterfly needle (they use it for babies) and laying down. I also use a method of EFT therapy, I suggest you go research it. Good luck

[@anarex2700]

I have anorexia and I'm currently trying to recover, and it's hard, really, REALLY, hard, but I'm trying and that's a huge step for me. I'm trying to watch happy things like this, that tell me to just be happy and not excersice because I HAVE to. Right now, I need to do what makes me happy, and that obviously isn't starving myself no matter how much I say it is. I don't know, I guess I just look up to you and what you do so much that what you said in this video helped me. Thank you. xx

[@JulietteVeronica1201]

Ana Rex I hope you get better

[@tirillorasystgaard3047]

The blogilates coment section is probably the most positive there is! So much love💕

[@Staciabailey14]

school decides how much sleep i get lol

[@HaLe-cl5ec]

omg yes i agree...school is a pain

[@Physionic]

Haha, too true.

[@samiraritu7777]

I luv school.....

[@Natalie-ym3dh]

same

[@TalkAsSoftAsChalk]

Stacey B My procrastination decides how much sleep I get.

[@crayons1584]

I used to focus on nothing but weight loss, I felt like crap and got cramps or got sore because I was pushing myself too far. But now I don't even think of weight loss because I love running.. it gets harder now though. It's winter and I hate the treadmill...

[@Physionic]

Better mindset, that's great :)

[@JeanetteTaylorofficial]

"Get your sleep on" watches this at 3am

[@channelmarti1]

haha :D its really interesting if i imagine that in USA is now 3.00am and in my country is just 8pm :D :D

[@rmswife3678]

channelmarti1 lol irk it 19:15 here

[@leaderoftaehyungnation9766]

Lucky mon We must both live in the U.K. as out time zones are the same!!

[@jenn6274]

Eugene Lee in the U.K. It's 11:20 sooo your wrong because I live in London

[@aspihesi]

Watching this at 1:33am :D

[@princessulku]

I love you Cassey!! I'm going through a friendship breakup rn and I felt really upset until I watched this video and you made my day!!! Thank you!!

[@charlottech9990]

Katelynn Neagle hope you ok.

[@princessulku]

ch ch thank you!

[@offtoneverlxnd6021]

being in college has RUINED my healthy lifestyle, I never get enough sleep due to homework stress and I eat so badly! really, really need to work on being healthier

[@transformingyourlife7203]

offtoneverlxnd I feel you...

[@baytbushra]

Tbh that's my goal, to be doing squats and exercise at 89 😌

[@blogilates]

Basically right???

[@fish1705]

BaytBushra You have SUCH A BEAUTIFUL profile picture!!!!

[@jenniferdl23]

Thank you for promoting people to get general health check-ups. I was normal weight and exercised everyday but ended up with high cholesterol and elevated sugars and I CHANGED my life at age 24 and now 26 with normal blood sugar and cholesterol. Preventative screening SAVES lives and SAVES you from disease even when you think you're healthy!!

[@AbbyStarr24]

Got my anual check up last week. I have a stomach ulcer and some other digestive issues are suspected. I have decided to do a major clean up to my diet. I haven't had a soda since and have been making much better food choices. I'm so proud and excited for my journey I am starting

[@suzieq1237]

Cassey, I am a professional student and have been watching your videos since 2013. This video is really great, and here's why: 1. You! You are such a good example of health. 2. You self disclose your ad. 3. You give reliable, evidence based sources and put them in the description. 4. You know your audience of teenage to young adult women and speak to them. Cassey, videos like this are what we need to teach the next generation health and wellness from an early age. You are using your influence for such good! THANK YOU!

[@burdensofrestriction]

Wait, why are there dislikes? How could this video have offended anyone? It's literally radiating with positivity and was created with the intent to help people...wtf

[@aylakm6652]

CONGRATS ON THE NEW POPFLEX LINE! ITS OH SO GORGEOUS!

[@blogilates]

ahhhh thank you so much!!!

[@CynthiaNovillo]

Sleep really is one of the most important things you have to get enough everyday :)

[@littlemissstilly]

I've recently gotten into doing sensory deprivation floats to help with my stress levels and have actually noticed ive been losing weight and that has been the only thing I've done differently, stress has a huge impact!

[@gerytsvetkova9618]

I love this woman. She brings happiness to everyone and all of us should try to be more like her - love people, love yourself and ...you for sure will live happy!

[@Melissa_Hoffman]

I have a serious sweet tooth so I am very addicted to fruit lol I seriously could probably eat a whole bag of grapes and not even think about it lol

[@Sarah-Odom]

Melissa Suckow i am the same way 😂

[@BassRai]

oh, follow the tradition!, eat 12 grapes on new year's eve for each month, and ask a wish each time you eat a grape! It's fun

[@hithere4741]

Melissa Suckow ikr same. 😂 My favourite food is strawberries so when I used to go to my grans she would be me 2 tubs of strawberries at the shop and the people at the shop call me the strawberry queen 😂 then I would be at my grans and eat the tubs in about 5 minutes try to get another strawberry and realise I'd eaten them all 😂😂😂 I definitely don't eat slowly when I'm eating my favourite food!!! 😳😳😳😂😂😂😳😳😳

[@shaunnacoles6704]

She is literally my life saver lol I never could stick to working out or dieting but surprisingly since I've been working out I started watching her and have sticked to working out this WHOLE WEEK and also eatting a lot better!! First time I've ever stuck to working out all week and dieting also!

[@Kay-ef4qx]

love you so much cassey!! You have honestly helped me get back on my feet on the health train this year. thank you for everything you do!

[@andreeaorac1417]

I want to thank you for everything you have done to me.You made me make changes in my life and now I'm healthier,happier,more powerful and more confident.I want you to know that I looooveyou and I always will!You inspired me so much and because of you I'm a better person now.I love you so so so much!💕

[@sionv2009]

I've been feeling miserable about life in general lately and i hadn't worked out in forever. So today, because it's my day 2 of my two days off (which i hadn't had for a very long time), i decided I'll do some popilates again. I only did 2 workouts and i feel SO MUCH BETTER. I can't even tell you how happy i feel right now. Thanks so much for all your videos. Not just the workouts but for your positivity and energy. You're amazing

[@judyli6912]

I got so excited when you said 'your health is your wealth' because that's a philosophy that I strongly believe in too! There's really no point in having all the money in the world if you haven't the health to use it. But when you have health, you can accomplish so many things! 🔥

[@Fatima-qu3ml]

1) get your sleep on 2) find a hobby that doubles as an exercise 3) get an annual check up 4) be around people who make you feel good 5) stop serving food family style 6) stop with the sugar 7) relax

[@ShaneAndHannah]

I was just sitting there playing on my phone and I started to watch your videos and jumped up and now I'm working out 💪🏻

[@laurenmainord3929]

HannahClaire SAME always happens to me!!!!

[@MW-dr3nl]

I literally don't know how to relax. I'm in school for biotechnology and theres a test nearly every week and when you think it's over BAM! Two tests in one day! But I love the video. I find eating healthy helps me stay focused and working out while I study is a great way to mult-task (ie. hold a plank over your textbook and don't stop until you're done that page!)

[@Physionic]

Good luck in your studies. Physiology grad student here - I know the feeling all too well..

[@vre4179]

I love her positive attitude, she honestly makes me so happy! :)

[@ayesameerkat]

Cassey was on KZbin rewind!!!!

[@crystalxo5038]

Ayesa Mir yaaaaassss

[@blogilates]

Yes I was and I was actually tugging Casey Neistat on the skateboard! They didn't show it so I may post a snippet on IG.

[@Mrym-q1q]

blogilates they did show it

[@edenmac7751]

blogilates you did a great job on rewind!

[@MissAmyxo]

I've been putting off my doctor's appointment due to my anxiety.... but I will definitely get on that! Thank you! :)

[@petitomojito]

As a diagnosed insomniac, I know the impact of sleep. But I also know that how many hours a person should sleep is very personal and various factors such as age, activity levels, where in the world you live, etc, etc play in - some people will simply require more sleep while others stay healthy on only 5-6 hrs of sleep. During my latest sleep therapy the doctors said that everything in their studies pointed to that sleep deprived people hold eight hours of sleep as their goal or golden standard, but once they're "cured" they end up anywhere between 6-9. It's the quality of sleep that matters rather than quantity. And don't stress about numbers, just make sure that YOUR body and mind are rested after a night's sleep and that you can tell the difference between having a rested body and just getting by - many actually can't because of routine.

[@sebastianlugo5781]

I think #5 depends on the person. I was raised to always finish everything on your plate, which often lead to overeating if there was more than I needed on my plate. In my house, I serve everything on platters and the children have their mandatory vegetables served to them. That way everyone can eat as much as they want or as little without feeling like they have to finish food they're too full for. Plus the sharing his really pleasant.

[@alliebennett5627]

My family just started doing the get your food at the stove instead of the table thing, and it has really helped us with our portions!

[@FracFrac96]

Cassey I have to tell you, your new popflex items are STUNNING! The queens coat is the most amazing thing I've ever seen, and I'm loving plum this year! Your killing it :) much love ♡

[@louveblancheomega799]

For me is being around my family, especially my father and my little brother ^^ I have one good friend but she lives far away now so she didn't really come along with me any longer :/ I have also some universities'mates and a "virtual friend" and I wish to see her in real life one day, but it's different. Sometimes it's quite tough to stick with this... I think that your parents are definitively your best friends and still being it a lifetime, they love you whatever your life is and whatever you are and whatever you've done...

[@mayaangelina1975]

You really inspired me to start getting fitter. I already dance and play tennis, but I feel like its not enough. I started working on flexibility and strength for a week and I feel so good! Thank you for motivating me!

[@IvankaSmirnoff]

Cassey have the most AMAZING energy!!!

[@missmelodies52]

I started doing aerial silks, which is now one of my favourite things to do. Now, doing strength training and other workouts is just exciting because it means I can do better at aerial! It's a serious incentive.

[@asvanara1645]

♥ Because of your motivational videos, I've lost 40 punds since March and I'm very happy now! I just wanted to thank you for motivating me every single day! ♥

[@CookieBunnieLover123]

thanks for making this video, cassey! i think it's really important to put an emphasis on FEELING healthy and to remind people to not just focus on their physical appearance. love your videos :)

[@WeenahWonders]

#6 is so important! Seriously check the sugar on everything you eat. You'd be so surprised what foods have a ton of sugar in them that you would never expect. Like flavoured yogurt!

[@chuchi-04]

I really love these inspirational/giving advice videos Cassey! Can you also do one on money vs. passion careerwise?

[@blogilates]

oohh that's a good one.

[@juliemorris6423]

blogilates - You talked about this in the 8 Minute Bikini Thighs Workout! I always get excited when I see that video on the monthly calendar because of your motivational "speech" on the second leg (not to mention that burn)! Your words have resonated with me ever since. Thank you, Cassey, for being such a positive and inspirational woman. Love you!❤️😊

[@MarNicole76]

Thank you for this! I love Cigna health care. I've been trying to rest more and slow down by doing belly breathing when I start feeling anxious at work.

[@writeymaile]

Dude I didn't even know people DIDN'T go to the doctor! I actually have checkups twice a year because my body is having trouble growing properly. I have always loved going to the doctor! Everyone should go, it's so important.

[@ashhartzell2933]

I love health tips from Cassey!!!!!!!!!

[@Scarppegios]

Yes totally!

[@danielleemond8404]

Drinking water while you eat can actually stop your stomach from working properly causing indigestion and bloating. It changes the acidity in your stomach, you should drink ~30min before and after you eat.

[@rockyraquel3024]

I've never subscribed to someone so quickly

[@bellaparis1414]

THX CASSEY, YOU ARE REALLY APPRECAITED IN MANY, MANY WAYS!!!!!! BELLA

[@AngelFrost02]

Thank you so much! I still struggle SOOOO crazily with binge eating even though I know it's not good for me, my belly fat or health. But I hope I can implement these tips!

[@lindale4578]

Oh cool, my health insurance is Cigna and they are huge on preventive care! Very amazing they are always doing something at my job as well like bio-metric screenings

[@hanimoon1422]

I love you, Cassey ❤️ Your positivity is contagious 😄

[@lavayuki]

I love all your tips! The part about seeing my doctor once a year never occurred to be as I usually only go when I'm actually sick. I'm kind of scared in case they actually do find something and a part of me doesn't want to know.

[@Rawoonah2cool]

you always feelm like a friend talking to me I love it

[@talakh9951]

please do more of these videos , it keeps me motivated in the winter months to eat healthy and workout 😁 .

[@Bucknutty]

Uni exams = none of these lool good tips for after though 👌🏼😊

[@sapphiregold4602]

I love your positive energy so much Cassey

[@ruthngahu8314]

omg thank you. through your workouts I reached my goal😊I don't know what I would do if I hadn't found you. thanks again

[@AbbyStarr24]

I also had a tender liver from being over worked because of no gallbladder. I love your video great advice. I wish my friends would do their yearly check ups

[@ayasano6908]

Well done on KZbin rewind you were great

[@Alexasfablife]

I thought she did really good too! Also hey girl come checkout my channel if you want:)

[@marnatieger6652]

Thank you for the motivation! I will definitely try to get more sleep and make an appointment for a check up. It has been more then 2 years now.

[@saayyylorr9354]

One of the best hobbys you can do is horseback riding! If your not able to own a horse you could see if a friends will let you ride yours or you could enroll in lessons any age! I have my own horse and I do show jumping and it works almost every muscle when you do more then a trot!

[@strawberry3107]

This looks like a amazing video, that I really need right now! Thanks, Cassey!

[@strawberry3107]

Wow. That really helped me! I'm SO gonna start sleeping more. I don't get near enough sleep.

[@jenn973]

I really needed this. Perfect timing . Thank you Cassey ♡♡

[@arlinesewell9844]

I definitely need to stop with the sugar!! And I love the new Popflex line:). Way to go Cassey- you never disappoint!

[@nicolehall56]

Sometimes instead of "getting rid of toxic friends" by changing your attitude and helping to change theirs can make them less toxic.

[@samarahbutler2537]

yepp couldn't agree more with all these! Thanks Casey! ps. you look gorgeous especially in the new popflex insta update :-) xx

[@blogilates]

aww thank u!

[@susurrus23]

this was a really deep and good assessment of putt lives! I'm going to definitely try these out- especially the sleep and the sugar bits.

[@marissanoronha106]

I was just thinking about this. About how to make changes in my life to live a happier life and then cassey uploads this 💯💓

[@Thefitty]

Slower eating and eating only when Im sitting down!

[@Physionic]

Good tips!

[@Alexasfablife]

I agree lol. Also hey girl come checkout my channel if you want :)

[@Fruitypebbles489]

Standing when you eat is better.....

[@Thefitty]

Can I ask why you think that?

[@Fruitypebbles489]

theFitty standing up helps with digesting cause i read somewhere that food passes through easier. And standing burns more calories. Simply standing for an hour burns 50 calories. Also sitting when you are eat helps the fat store in your stomach because when you sit your stomach naturally sticks out

[@beautyful9710]

Cassey you are incredible! Thank you so much for this, it was beautiful, thoughtful and inspiring. God Bless!!❤

[@agathavalentin3085]

I love when you make this kind of videos Love you Cassey

[@jaimejadebrown2512]

Thank you so much for making this video Cassey! :) xx

[@tylerchernault4771]

Thank you so much you remind me of my step mom she is so happy and always in a good mood I ❤️ you so much-Tyler😊😊💕💕

[@JoannaEve]

Thanks on the advice super helpful as per usual. You are such an inspirational person and my hero. Also congratulations for appearing in the latest KZbin rewind! :)

[@jinanshouman7075]

Cassey I seriously love you so much! such an inspiration !💞

[@emmaneves8758]

can you do a video about wrists, and how to get stronger wrists😊

[@bwaybabyrose]

Emma Neves I second that! I always have to be careful with my wrists doing exercises which put weight on them.

[@bwaybabyrose]

Emma Neves I second that! I always have to be careful with my wrists doing exercises which put weight on them.

[@gjmusic6513]

And stronger ankles. As a dancer it's so hard to have brittle ankles

[@bilibili68]

you can't really get stronger wrists since what hurts is your bones/cartilage touching each other. What helps is to build the muscles in your arms and shoulders and even hands. Then whenever you are putting weight on your wrists, consciously distribute that weight to your muscles. For example when doing a plank, think about squeezing your shoulders and all your arm muscles and your upper back and distributing the weight to all your fingers and your palm. That will take off some of the weight from your wrists. Same thing goes for your ankles- work your leg muscles and consciously squeeze them even when you don't necessarily have to!

[@sebastianlugo5781]

There are tiny muscles in your wrists and ankles, actually. For ankles, stretches and toe points should do the trick, and try walking more. For wrists (as an archer), I actually have a glove that builds resistance in the fingers and wrist. It forces your hand into a ball and you work against the little pulls to unclench your hand.

[@louisemelander4904]

I loooove these talk videos! Okey I love all your videos, but these are really great!!

[@idunnn.h.3792]

I am cutting HARD down on my sugar intake. Starting with sugary drinks (which are the worst..). I'm usually more of a savoury kind of person, so cakes and things won't be too hard to cut out xD But the sodium... ugh

[@inestavares9370]

Thank you Cassey! you chance my life so much for years♥ I hope to meet you one day♥♥Portugal

[@midnightalexa]

"I wanna be doing squats and burpees with you when we're, like, 89!!" Haha, same Cassey!

[@lalalanding234]

Cassey Ho Thank you so much

[@aysheahossain9616]

Casey gained a little bit weight! I think you gained weight in your waist, which is my most problematic area! You look cute tho! And by the way I saw you on KZbin Rewind 2016! You looked so good! I literally shouted when I saw you because I was so happy and surprised! I'm so proud of you!

[@parinaurora8496]

omg!! I love u sooo much! u inspire me to become better and healthier!!! ❤💋😍😘 who else?

[@meganzina4414]

hey Cassey!! I'm going to try to relax more and eat slowly. That's 2 of my problems right now... and go to the doctor like you said. I should really do that... But, could you do a video about "How To Be More Relaxed" and some tricks and tips?? thank you so much for everything!!! Ily Cassey 😍 Happy New Year

[@erindaly2315]

Any extra activity is a good activity, and I've seen some intense badminton games.

[@Mrym-q1q]

Nico Lugo plus its really fun

[@Julie1588]

I actually do know all of this already.. But listening to you say it makes me go through with it :) . Thank you

[@reign7701]

Cassey I was wondering if you knew how to get rid of bulky legs Because I have bulky legs and I hate them I want them them long and lean. What diet and what workouts should I do?

[@Bantshee]

Sugar, sleep and stress is my bads. I'm going to work on the sugar mostly though. Thanks Cassey.

[@aoifesmith4122]

I was wondering if you knew anything about this; whenever I eat - and it could be a bigger meal in a restaurant or something - I always feel hungry again about 20-30 minutes later and everyone else around me still feels full. I don't know if there's something wrong or not but I'm just really curious about that 😅

[@melissareichheld9502]

Aoife Lynch I have that problem too! I don't know the answer either. I hope someone answers this!

[@elineknetemann4983]

Aoife Lynch Maybe you eat too fast? I've heard that if you eat too fast, your brain can't acknowledge that food went in, so even though you ate, you don't feel like you ate. I don't know if this is true though, it's just something I read in a couple of magazines. :)

[@stardusteeveexxx]

I am the opposite - I rarely get hungry, which is bad because I'm always craving to eat stuff :(

[@felicity1603]

I get that too it's just having a fast metabolism

[@Physionic]

It could be any combination of things, but Eline mentioned quick eating which does contribute to lower satiety (feeling full). Try slowing down and chewing more purposefully. The stomach is lined with stretch receptors that tell it when it is full, but that signal takes a bit for it to be processed by the hypothalamus (of the brain). Also, the composition of the food can have a strong impact, as well. Aiming for protein rich, less carbohydrate rich foods can increase satiety. I hope I answered your question. If you are curious about my information, I'm a graduate student in nutrition and physiology, as well as a researcher at a medical school - we're learning about it! :)
