I’m fifty. I used to be fit decades ago. I no longer have my old workouts available. I just did ten body weight squats and am breathing hard. Humbling but encouraging. I can do that anywhere anytime.

Dude you are seriously a gem in the fitness community. I've kind of inadvertently become a pseudo personal trainer for a lot of my friends and family because I am very enthusiastic about fitness, and one of the first things I always do is refer people to your content. You really simplify the basics of fitness in an approachable way like no other, and many of the people I know who are trying to get healthier and improve their life have already heard of you.

[@GATORBUBS]

This is amazing. I recently realized I haven't been improving the ways I want to, so I brought myself down a difficulty on every exercise and worked my muscles to failure. I feel muscle growth and the "good" pain the next day now and I'm happy with my progress in just a couple weeks doing this now :)

[@nishanthv1112]

I used to have a problem with motivation cause I feel bad when I don't see immediate results which I understand won't happen. Over the past week though I've been using a combination of calisthenics and dumbell exercises consistently over the past week and the noticeable growth of my biceps and quads has been super motivating. That and also me being able to do more reps for every workout. Thanks for the inspiration Hampton!

[@bobsacamano4]

One of the most frustrating things that pop culture still perpetuates is the myth that you can spot reduce fat by performing exercises related to that/those body parts. It's frustrating to hear this over and over from disreputable sources that are really geared towards people that don't do a lot of research on fitness. Thankfully there are a lot of great channels out there like yours breaking down these ineffective strategies. Keep up the great work!

[@BelegaerTheGreat]

*Hampton, this is one of the best videos you've ever made! A goal cannot be achieved if it's not clear!*

[@Weiti666]

Thank you for covering these goals, Hampton. One particular thing I am missing is the issue of recomposition. I have been working on fat loss for half a year now and the progress is quite steady so far. However, I am reaching the point where I don't wanna risk wasting away and I'm not sure, how to balance my workout - consisting of jumprope and calisthenics - with my diet and protein-intake. It's really difficult to fill up on calories after my workouts while maintaining my weight and still burn fat at the same time. I read that you cannot lose bodyfat and build muscle at the same time, but I refuse to believe that - partly because I have been experiencing the transformation of my body several times now and it always worked proportionally. I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas on body-recomposition. Thank you for what you're doing, you've been a great inspiration in general for quite some time now :)

[@obviouslyblack]

Hello! I know you meant that message for Hampton, so please feel free to ignore this message if you're not interested :) Unless you're a seasoned athlete who is already super optimizing their workout and diet, losing bodyfat and building muscle is definitely doable! I've been "skinny fat" my whole life and I've been making good progress lowering my body fat % and building muscle this past year. I basically followed guides from Jeff Nippard (science-based body builder). I bought his book on body recomposition because I'm a bit of a nerd and enjoy reading about scientific studies, but you can just look up "Jeff Nippard Body Recomposition" on KZbin to get a summary of the steps. I hope that's helpful. I don't know you but I'm rooting for ya!

[@HybridCalisthenics]

Hey! You got some great replies already, but I'll just add to them. You can lose weight and gain muscle at the same time! You probably already know this, but you can't "turn fat into muscle." They're made up of separate things. When people mention this, they just mean losing fat while gaining muscle. The summary for what you're doing would be "consistent resistance training and adequate nutrition." The resistance training will help more for what you're doing that the jump rope, in my opinion. Don't worry if you ever feel like doing it in cycles either. While theoretically healthier to just focus on optimizing your lifestyle, it's sometimes easier for people to either focus on gaining muscle or losing weight. If you want to try this out for a few months, it won't make or break you.

I don't want to put in 2 extra hours at work but I do, again not because I have motivation for a particular reason to but because I practice discipline)

[@Em-vj8sm]

The only thing missing from the calories in/calories out argument is the issue of adaption. Genetics and start weight play a big part in how a person's body adapts to a calorie deficit. You can't just live in 200kcal deficit for years and eventually disappear. Bodies require energy to grow hair, healthy skin and fingernails, to maintain a healthy digestive system etc and can adapt to take energy from elsewhere and not always lose fat. A high body weight combined with a high deficit is a good way to make a body unwell, plateau and rebound. So it's not mathematics. Bodies with more fat cells to start with (genetics, weight at puberty and pregnancy) plateau easier than bodies that have less fat cells which are just full from overeating. Hormones also play a massive part in weight loss. Especially for women who don't have testicles, creating testosterone throughout the day. They require additional sleep to create enough hormones to maintain their energy throughout the day or again, weight loss will be hampered. I'm not arguing that calories in/calories out isn't the main way you lose weight. In fact you're right, you can't lose weight without some kind of deficit. But there are a lot of other factors that can come into play, causing adaptation, conservation of energy and losing energy from body systems or muscle rather than fat that can cause a stall where there otherwise wouldn't be one IF it were simple mathematics. Why am I commenting? Because if everyone always believes that the only reason for a plateau is not enough of a deficit then those with a high start weight and certain genetics that promote this adaptation are going to end up feeling like hell. Everyone needs to also make sure they're eating enough. The calories in/calories out argument without covering the rest leads some people to eating disorders and malnutrition.

[@WhisperedSssreads]

Damn i feel ashamed im 1,70 and i weight 74kg and im addicted to food

[@syasyaishavingfun]

@@WhisperedSssreads nothing wrong with loving food. They are made of deliciousness. Slightly reducing your portion will still let you eat delicious food but with less calories. For example, if you always eat the whole medium pizza for yourself, you can just eat 5/6 of the pizza. Train your body to eat just a little bit less, little by little. No need to deprive yourself of anything.

[@Mr.Lambassador]

@@WhisperedSssreads Seconding what the other person said. Absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Personally I realised binge eating was a big coping mechanism for me and I helped myself by adding "healthier" coping mechanisms to my repertoire (e.g. a workout, a walk in the sunshine, smashing something that doesn't harm anyone etc.). It doesn't mean I never fall back on to binge eating, I don't think that will ever leave me, but it means I have to rely on it less. Took me a long time to realise this so I'm hoping someone reading this in the same situation can use it as some sort of shortcut :)

[@blu7878]

I'm also 1,70cm and currently weigh around 62kg, and I've been trying to lose some fat and gain muscles instead. I'm medditerenian so I gained fat around my hips but have really skinny arms. So I'm trying to find the happy medium of building an equally fit body but gaining muscle in my arms and losing that fat on my hips. We can do this, just staying consistent and setting realistic goals 🙌

[@xbloodmoonx2]

My goal has been for awhile-- to get stronger and withhold more stamina/endurance. But watching fitness content online it seems everyone is trying to build muscle and for aesthetics rather than becoming stronger. So I've always thought that if I did strength training I would get too muscular as well as have to change my diet. Due to this I've never tried to reach my goal. And this video is so simple yet helps so much. Thank you Hampton, love your content!

[@jannepeltonen2036]

Thanks for the interesting video again! A side note: Calorie deficit is all well and good, but calculating it can be a bit of a nightmare :D For instance, there's the Calorie content of a food, but depending on how it's processed, its Caloric availability (meaning how many Calories your body can extract from it) differs... And so on. There's an interesting Royal institution video on the subject, but it's almost an hour long :)

[@ForgottenAria]

The video on Calories was so good. Knowing that the number on the food package is just some constants that some guy came up with multiplied by the macros was very illuminating.

[@FattyMcFox]

So, this might bother some people. But i have to share. My goal, when i do get time to work out, My goals are: Increase strength, Gain muscle, improve mobility, and increase stamina, But i don't want to lose fat. I am ok if it happens while i increase the other things, but losing fat is not my goal, and many fitness 'gurus' seem to push that the hardest, and sometimes won't let me learn about increasing the other things until they make me focus on loosing fat. The number of times i get the side eye and told to do crunches and fast before they will let me even try to increase strength. What i am getting at, for everyone reading this, is sometimes some people will not share these goals, and don't be a jerk about it if they don't. Also knew a girl who wanted to build endurance but didn't want to build muscle, and people were far more accommodating with that, but she still got flack from some people.

[@mellongod1874]

About the caloric deficit thing, it works fairly well for me I’ve been losing weight and putting on muscle for a year now and all you need to do is understand your maintenance calories and go say 300 below that every day you’ll lose weight you can do cardio to get to that number as well whatever helps you get to that it’s fairly simple just don’t eat as much or find things in your diet you can cut down on like random snacks or even using less oil when cooking helps. Also eating less calorie dense foods is really underrated. Hope you can fulfill your goal and find some happiness in your efforts

I found myself wanting to gain in as balanced a fashion as possible so that I can increase my ability in whatever way that's necessary for it to be applied. Whether it's defending myself, defending other people, or maybe being an anchor in a physically stressful situation with multiple people involved... if I'm already gonna be doing those things, I want to be able to do so at the best of my ability to minimize harm done to me or people around me. And so every routine I'm kind of trying to build overall strength. I'm doing high rap with flow weights and low wrap with high weights and doing partial or lower difficulty workouts and the higher difficulty ones or more complete movements ( Like for example, I do a clean and press but I also work out every individual part of that workout separately, This kind of is my way of doing. What would add up to a rep beyond what I can do in a single set, Also Being able to do the initial cool in a seated position, so that I'm not putting stress on my knees, makes it easier to add more reps that my arms and my core can do. This seems to work for me at a 10 partials to 1 full rep ratio for me.), and I do therapeutic workouts because I have joint problems. That is the main thing that has enabled me to walk for much longer distances than I have been since my joint health deteriorated.

[@loverofmusic3210]

I completely agree about the weight loss. 7 months ago I decided to try to get back to my "pre-university" weight, for personal health reasons and to help my confidence. I was 196 lbs, 5'8" in height. But with a full time work schedule, and gyms not open, I only focused on changing up my diet. I didn't eat less; just the type of things I ate. I ended up losing 15 lbs in 6 months. Now its a new year, and I have added some exercise with a brisk 30min walk 3x a week, and a couple light dumbbells. But my diet has changed again because of the season (bit heavier since its cold out), so my progress is noticeably slower. I feel heaps better overall though compared to when I started.

[@johannes01]

[@jenniferwright9388]

I know this isn't the main focus of the video, but from my perspective the caloric deficit vs. insulin/hormone impact on fat loss is often presented as a false dichotomy. It seems like some of those who advocate for a calorie deficit tend to focus solely on the number of calories coming in with less emphasis on the number of calories going out and how that may change over time. The metabolism adjusts to long term calorie restriction, meaning that a person would continually need to lower the calories coming in to stay in a deficit and continue losing fat. Other lifestyle factors impact the metabolism and can help keep it higher. I'm definitely not an expert in nutrition but I've benefited from learning about both the calorie restriction and insulin/hormonal pieces of the equation.

I think the debate about calories in vs calories out is misunderstood by many people. Calories is just energy meter. When you eat more calories than you burn, the body will store it as body fat. When you eat less calories than you burn, the body HAS to take those body fat to support your life and activity. It's that simple. Energy can't just pop out of nowhere. Those types of diet like Keto, Carnivore, Vegan etc are preferences to achieve caloric deficit. If it works for you, then I'm glad for you.

There's one thing I'd love to know your opinion about: Iron Wolf style high repetition workouts. Just because I've started doing a lot of burpees and it really helps me getting into shape. Mainly because it easily keeps me motivated, because it's simple (no big planning of the workouts, just add some variety) and I feel it's very time efficient for a moderate approach (no specific strength or muscle goals, but being overall in better shape). It works so many muscles and pushes the cardiovascular limits - I really love this exercise. I've heard what you've said from multiple knowledgeable people on KZbin, but I'd love a take on that.

Re: caloric deficit. It's a bit more complicated than that: eating equivalent caloric content of different foods will affect your metabolism differently, and thus may make the difference between weight gain and weight loss. Also, sleep, excercise, stress can influence weight gain/loss (hormones!), even when you're eating the same diet. So it's much more helpful to focus on the quality of one's diet and lifestyle choices rather than the caloric amount of food they're consuming.

[@ajthegreat9443]

Well, sleep, exercise and hormones tend to affect how much energy your body burns or your appetite, and calorie deficit really is the end all be all answer as far as science is currently concerned. Focusing on diet and lifestyle, whether people like to hear it or not, affects that calorie intake/calorie out ratio. Sleeping more? You are more likely to be fidgety, which increases your calories out. If you are a stress eater and under stress, you’re more likely to inadvertently eat more often and in larger quantities, increasing your calories in. A calorie deficit is, at least with current scientific evidence, the way we lose or gain weight, and the complexity of it comes from how we choose to play it out. I do agree though, the easiest way for the average person to increase their calorie deficit is to focus on getting better sleep and eating less calorie dense foods, as well as increasing the activity in their lifestyle

@@shadowdrakon9913, different kind of foods affect your metabolism, including hormones, differently. So just by changing your diet but keeping the same caloric equivalent you can lose/gain weight. There are actual studies on that with ketogenic diet, and many many anecdotes of people on carnivore diet who do "priming", consuming 2-3×more kcal equivalent of food than normally and losing weight. Your hormones really do matter. Think of undiagnosed type 1 diabetics who eat loads but keep losing weight as they stop producing insulin that is responsible for fat storage in the body. Or people with thyroid issues, who keep reducing their kcal intake, but don't lose or even gain weight.

@@sigawof I am literally a nutritionist my man, and different kinds of foods do not affect your metabolism. What different kinds of food DO have are different requirements for their breakdown. Anecdotal evidence would suggest that sure, hormones have an effect on calorie usage but actual experimentation so far has both shown that hormone deficiencies don’t directly affect calorie usage and shown that the macronutrients of food are, with a very small degree of variance, are metabolized the same way among individuals. Diabetics and even people with thyroid issues do not struggle with the metabolic process of glycolysis, it’s the hormone responses of glycolysis they have issues with. The either can not produce enough or resist insulin, which means the cells don’t know that there is glucose to accept. The common misconception that diabetics can’t digest sugar is not really the issue, it’s that their bodies don’t know they have sugar. As I said, managing lifestyle is the easiest way to manage calorie deficit, but it really is, as far as actual scientific evidence currently displays, the way weight loss/gain is controlled. I encourage you to always double check the studies yourself when they are presented because often times, especially on social media where everyone has to be right, the “studies” are nonexistent or taken out of context, and anecdotal evidence is something you should always be careful of and ask “what are they selling” I hope this helped though! There’s so much misinformation on health out there, I know it’s hard to figure out “what’s true and what’s marketing” as one of my close friends said when we were working on our thesis’s

Caloric deficient may be a great way but one must also consider the type of calories you put in A guy meeting his caloric deficient goals but eats only junk will have a very much harder time then the one earing Clean

Good stuff! Spot training should work, in the sense that you increase the surface area upon which the body fat is spread by gaining muscle.
