Every Day, Bro

[@JaySwanson]

Almost forgot! Grab your Paris in my Pocket tee while the pre-sale is on at store.parisinmypocket.com And thanks to everyone who already has! Can't wait to see them in the world

[@sandy.art.lapetitedoe2301]

Thank you for opening up your life to the world. This week has been incredibly hectic at work, but taking the time to watch our videos served as a valuable pause for reflection on the balance between work and life. I often find myself being a workaholic, channeling all my energy into my job. My routine involves coming home, tending to my pup, grabbing a quick meal, and then repeating the cycle. It's become apparent that I'm neglecting my personal well-being. Your words resonated with me, prompting me to question my current trajectory. I've realized that, at the expense of my own health, I've neglected my passion for art, despite identifying as an artist. Your reminder that being a writer is about writing has struck a chord, compelling me to prioritize myself. Thank you for sharing your insights.😃

[@JaySwanson]

I'm glad it struck a chord! I hope you take better and better care of yourself until you forget you ever stopped doing so in the first place =)

SORRRRRRYYYYYY! On the upside, it’s Sunday and I didn’t want to go running, but I’m going to run. You’re an inspiration mate!

[@JaySwanson]

I got you covered 😎

Love and appreciate the dedication to consistency (on here, and in the gym)

[@JaySwanson]

Thanks! 🙏

[@carolyngregerruthardt3853]

Love this ! Thank you.

[@RandolphSouth]

Glad you are working out. Sugar is bad for strength training. I break up my workouts by muscle groups. Chest and shoulders, then next day legs, then next day back, biceps, and triceps. Then back to legs. Cardio day and start again. There are so many great workouts on KZbin. Keep going!

[@JaySwanson]

Tons to get into!

[@SethinBerlin]

The farmers are protesting here in Berlin as well.

[@flatironnewyork]

There are so many micro steps that contribute to the habits and person you want to form. Not least of which is how you think. I heard this recently and think it's so true: "Emotion is covert behavior. A belief is a physical act"

[@JaySwanson]

Oh man - changing how I think is the great challenge. I'm making real strides, but it's been the core battle 100%

[@CatieMcIntyre]

Nice WSU cap, Jay! When I was in Paris a few months ago, your cap would have been a welcome sight! GO COUGS!

[@steveramirez8270]

Low carb is amazing! Keep it going Jay!

[@MarcApicella]

Great to see you man and great video! keep at it🤝

[@amyspeers8012]

The farmers were protesting around my area about month ago. They blocked off the roundabout at the big hypermarché. Here, they mixed manure with the hay and burned it.

[@JaySwanson]

Woah - that would be hard core

[@AnneMB955]

Are you for or against the farmers? I only eat meat. 🥩

[@balecalduin1993]

@@AnneMB955For or against the farmers, let me tell you something my friend. You will die soon. Of scurvy. Have a fruit or some cabbage every once in a while for crying out loud

[@sadiemae9446]

Love the 13th arr! Stayed there last year. Great Vietnamese food!

[@JaySwanson]

There's some great stuff in that neighborhood

[@ADAtrips]

Good morning. I woke up at 3:00 am which is 2:00 pm . Now it’s 4 or 3 pm Paris time. It seems like France and Seattle have similar weather. (I used to live in Seattle). Grats on your exercise success. 🌴🌴Aloha

[@JaySwanson]

Thanks!

[@touristtea6076]

I love that started going to the gym daily. I do the same but what happens is once in a while maybe 1 or 2 days I can’t make it because of an early work mtg or just feeling lazy. Planning 7 days guarantees 5-6 most weeks and lets me skip a day without guilt. 🎉

[@JaySwanson]

I loved what James Clear wrote in Atomic Habits (paraphrasing here) that no one can be perfect. It's ok to miss a day, but make a commitment not to miss a second day. That was a really helpful framing for where I'm at

[@KibbitUpIt]

good job!

[@JaySwanson]

Thank you!

[@dccoulthard]

I'll admit, I've always been jealous of how much you can get done. I just ordered the book and going to start on it today!

[@JaySwanson]

It's a great one - lots of tools in there that can get healthy results imo.

[@Stewart.disney1]

Always remember the best ability is availability. Just being there everyday for work friends or family is key to life

[@JaySwanson]

Just gotta show up!

[@DarkSentencer]

Please do another run of the shirts one day!

[@JaySwanson]

I hope to!

[@sarahb6185]

This was my “I’ll watch one Jay video before going to the gym” video. Guess I picked a good one!

[@JaySwanson]

😆 Perfect timing

[@thistlenstar]

Going to the gym is addictive, in a good way of course. When you get a few decades older you might find that it helps to reverse the feeling of decline that comes with age. It's a great feeling to reach a target weight, and set the next one, or to have to buy new shirts because the chest and sleeves in the current ones are too small, not the stomach. There is also a very meditative quality to weight training, you can zone out, stop the monkey chatter and concentrate on the energy and strength that is inside you. That can "put you in charge" in some very meaningful ways.

[@JaySwanson]

The zoning out and relaxing while in the gym has been the best counterintuitive mindset shift I've had beyond the commitment I've made to get in every day. It's really changed the experience into something much more enjoyable then when I was in there to work as hard as possible and get out as fast as possible. Glad I'm in it!

[@ivanparrilla9585]

Hi Jay. Love your videos. At 7:54 into your vlog, you walk through a huge sculpture. What's it called and where is it? Best regards. Ivan

[@JaySwanson]

It's at Station F - not sure what it's called though

[@ivanparrilla9585]

Thanks!👍

[@willnelson3362]

Your motivation is highly inspirational and contagious! But you'll need to make sure your efforts are well balanced and planned. If they are, you'll see great improvements.Have you thought of hiring a personal trainer? Or perhaps sharing some details about your routine with your audience, some of whom will probably have good advice? I was very happy to see the video sequence with the three major shoulder-centric movements: bench press, overhead press, cable rows. Keep piling on the volume, it really helps. Good luck, Jay!

[@JaySwanson]

Thanks! I definitely want to get a trainer but I'll need a new gym for that. Sharing my routines is definitely doable - I'll get to it once I feel a bit more settled into them (but I guess I've been doing them forever now so it won't take too long)

[@willnelson3362]

@@JaySwansonIt looks like you're straining pretty well on your reps -- IMO, that's good and it looks like the right amount of strain. Maybe watch some videos on shoulder and ribcage placement for each exercise, particularly on the rows. Is that a freaking wall right behind you on the cable row machine? I was going to scold you for bad form on the rows -- you need to raise your chest way higher, push your shoulder blades down toward the floor (and pinch them together in the back, which you're doing), for God's sake, don't crane your head forward at maximum contraction. But it really just looks like you're doing all this to avoid that damn wall!?!?! I hope you find a new gym soon!

[@patriciateague8677]

I've been watching my carbs and a chocolate chip cookie weighed in at 116 grams. 1/6th of that cookie was 16 carbs. I will eat it but will space it out. Even that clementine is 15 carbs.

Just curious, have you ever had someone run off with your video camera?

[@JaySwanson]

Thankfully no =)

🛍️👕🧵After March 20th, will it be possible to buy a T-Shirt from your website after the Pre-Sale has ended? Thanks

[@JaySwanson]

Not for a while, no, unless we end up with some extras. It could end up a one-time thing (hopeful it will return but we have to see)

[@bigbitebones]

Sugar is the most unspoken drug there is. If you try not to eat anything that contains sugar on day 3, even your mode changes, even if you are a happy person, but after day 7 you start feeling better. On day 10…..😂😂😂

[@JaySwanson]

Yeah, I'm craving it less and less. The shakes I've been making have worked a trick on me - getting better nutrition in the morning makes a massive difference.

[@bigbitebones]

@@JaySwanson look up Dr. Berg and his take on sugar. He also have lots of other medical advice on different topics, but like you said don’t fall into the rabbit hole because you still need to create content for us 😂😂😂
