Yes, it;s called "surfing the desire". I forgot to mention it in the video. When you feel tempted, don't fight the desire. Recognize it. Visualize it. Take deep breaths, breath it out, kill it and imagine how much your life is better without it. If you master this, you can stare at your source of temptation all day long and you will not give in. Thumbs up peoplel.

[@lockfart]

That's a huge Ass room

[@95vinicn]

Frank, do you count your calories in a app, try to eat the same thing always or just try to eat clean or you do another freak thing?

[@nicka52]

anyone else see the chick in his bed?

[@jordanwilliams6820]

3000 v

[@qiyuanren4762]

wondering what the girl (I suppose) in the bed thinks about Frank's speech...

[@RoyalGuard4619]

Well... why?

[@UrMomzDED]

how active are you fronk... how is it even possible to be cutting on +3000 cals

[@mustifaguspis4596]

Brandon Nguyen everybody's metabolism is different. He probably just has a much faster than average one. I also eat 2000-3000 calories more than what the calculators tell me while cutting or maintaining without gaining any weight.

[@lockfart]

Look at how ersfic he is that's why his metabolism is so high

[@ABABABABABABABABABABBBBBB]

Brandon Nguyen cardio + muscle mass + weight training + neat = high calorie burn

[@frankyang]

Yes, all of them. Creating digital acid in my basement. It's my favorite thing to do. And no, I've never edited on drugs.

[@GilBatesLovesyou]

Frank, how do you psychologically deal with the added muscle mass? ("Monsters staring back"?) I've added muscle mass now almost only training for strength and it feels really weird and awkward; because it's not how I imagine myself to look. I wanted to just look skinny (used to be fat) and not "jacked" and now it looks like I lift and feels really weird because I now look like a "jock" in the mirror and don't imagine myself that way. How do you embrace the new body/self that was created? Thanks.

[@MakoTheFrog]

Whenever i go to bed i always end up thinking about huge tarantula's that eat my face, and whenever i tell myself ok i just wont think about it tonight it just makes it worse, my brain is imprinted with this thought and it's connected to sleeping, so in other words, i am completely fucked.

[@shayeasy]

lol

[@tyson1chicken]

try to replace that thought with something else that's pleasant and real like punani from a fine baddie

[@akarsuoltulu3133]

when i first tried cutting, i went on a 1800 calorie diet, ate raw oats with water and really tortured myself and i just ended up giving up 1 week into it. months later i did a sucsesfull cut where i basiclly ate both clean and some bad foods, but made sure i hit my protein/fats and carbs at the end of the day :)

[@Thematic2177]

Did you keep the weight off?

[@animatronicfuturisticshama1153]

That intro was so insane.

[@abdulrhmanws2120]

He's looking everywhere but the camera

[@pr4nk5tr]

The brain cannot negate things, so if you say "don't think about a pink elephant", there are 2 commands involved that the brain needs to process: 1. Imagine the thing that you don't want to think about, otherwise you won't know what not to think about. 2. The actual command "now don't think about what you just imagined". So step 2 cannot be reached without step 1, and since 2 also contains the command "imagine" it will lead straight back to 1 which causes the loop. If that makes any sense ;-)

[@Beeftitan]

my family gets junk food all the time. i get my own food and cook it. but ill often see something like cookies lying around and lets say i need a certain amount of carbs still but i am out of rice or sweet potatos, im much more likely to give in. So i agree be around ppl that are the same way as you. or for me i should just move out as soon as i can.

[@koreanpicassomadona7327]

Hey Frank! why don't you present to us your weekly training schedule, talk about how many days you need to rest and how many time a week you train each muscle group. That would be very very apreciated. You kinda seem to be always doing squat and deadlift every time you hit the gym.

[@Brockweston]

shouldnt need that many cals at 59kgs, 300cals over maintenance is enough. otherwise youre just putting on unnecessary fat, which isnt a big deal, but i was 60kg when i started and i know its hard to get 3500 cals in a day when youre that small

[@notheoriginal]

I'd like to see it, you could post a pic of it on facebook, if you haven't done it yet. I don't remember to have ever seen it though. How did you learn to paint? I'm really interested because I'd like to learn it.

[@zackbrady2455]

Frank doesn't want to be like anyone. I guarantee you you won't find a fitness youtube channel like his on here. He tries to be different on purpose, he's way different from everybody else. He thinks much deeper about things.

[@speaklikeanative]

this must be where frank lost all his views

[@neoda91]

is he trying or is he just being him self and its natural to him? and he might not even know him its just we know elliot so we think in that way that he could be trying but we will never know.

[@StronglikeLion3]

The immense bombardment of links to your other videos are ruining the aesthetic feel of your videos. They cease to be clean if you litter them with post-it links and appended text.

[@toplel1312]

why don't you take clen/DNP/t3/aas to cut? you won't need any of this mind game chicken and broccoli nonsense. I used to be natural, but then I got enlightened.

[@tricepratops]

frank im coming to taiwan this summer and I really want to train with you and for you to creep the shit out of my girlfriend wearing your old man mask

[@barnabapetroni2204]

frank would like to know a few things about bulking diet and how then do you call yourself. please answer me I will follow you forever!

[@iNarbage]

Is the fact that your consciousness can manipulate your brain's thought processes and instincts proof of a soul or something metaphysical?

[@clemensmayer7293]

i dont understand. one day you bulk 2 weeks later you decide to cut. what is going on. i am so confused. :,(

[@frankyang]

i painted it.

[@superdupersubby]

Frank you should come by /fit once in awhile, haven't seen ya there in a long time!

[@BboyShinnny]

fronk ru back in maryland? cuz i was wondering if u wanted to workout some day !!!

[@Renomet]

Fronk, this video actually helped me. Not with cutting, but with something else.

[@fatalsk1ll]

Am i the only one who noticed that there's a chick with a phone in the background?

[@chrisedgar2262]

hey frank, what was your diet like when you were trying to look like brad pitt?

[@aboynamedben]

best part: "dont hang around fat people are people who are eating shit"... well done, great advice frank..

[@fry6344]

DAMN! I LOVE that intro and ending, this is why I watch your epic videos, you actually take the time to make an interesting and informative video, thank you!

[@kkichgo]

More videos like this please Frank? This helped me out so much. I want to hear more of your philosophy about want/avoiding desires.

[@mitchellrobby4773]

[@TheFatKid128]

i was wondering, even though this question may be the opposite of the video but here goes. So im the kind of guy that likes to eat alot, and i calculated my bmr says to be around liek 3k, but when i eat around only 2-2.5k calories i end up gaining weight and fairly fast. Should i just eat lower calories or eat as much or more and bulk to raise my bmr even more in hope of being able to eat more without getting fatter, my main goal is to mainly be stronger and look good, any advice is helpful thx

[@chiodori]

I am like you in terms of appetite. I used to be overweight/obese and have lost 50+ lbs and am at a very healthy weight (5'11 @ 163lbs). As someone who's gone through a cut I've got so much advice I can share. But I'll offer some basic advice for now, I'd recommend to lose weight first, but, that'd be more concrete if I knew your stats. Get a rough estimate of your maintenance calories and deduct 300-400 cals. I used intermittent fasting (Google it) and eventually reduced up to 1000 cals max and the progress was very rapid. Intermittent fasting was useful for me, but, its not a necessity, just keep reducing your cals and always take measurements. Message me if you have questions.

[@TheFatKid128]

im 5'9 172 18yo i go to gym around 5 times a week, play tennis 3-5 times a week and when i was calculating i would eat 1800-2200 calories

[@chiodori]

TheFatKid128 In that case, depending on how much leaner you wanted to get, I'd say 1700-1800 is a good range if you wanted to around 155lbs and if your about 12-14% bf when your there, assuming you haven't got a lot of muscle mass you could maintain that physique for 3-4 weeks and begin a slow and steady bulking plan. I'd recommend giving intermittent fasting ago based on the fast results it gave me.

[@TheFatKid128]

well i wouldnt really say i dont have little muscle mass, im fairly strong for the amount i have anyways. I havent really been recording max reps for many exercises but my deadlift is a 260pr bench is 160, and squat 225 for like 6 reps

[@chiodori]

TheFatKid128 its worth noting that strength is not the same as muscle mass. Your stats are very similar to where I was, almost identical. Some people can be strong with low mass l and vice versa. Obviously there is a correlation at some point. But if you do have decent mass, you can cut down to an even lower percentage, maybe 10% and not look scrawny, that's the point where I was coming from. If you have lower mass, don't go too low in bf% because you'll look scrawny, if you have higher muscle mass you can go to a lower bf% and not look scrawny so you can have a longer/better bulk where you won't look fat as quick.

[@zackbrady2455]

Mirin the glasses!

[@naughtydawgP]

when people are making food I cant eat. I don't stop myself from smelling the aroma of the food. I breath in deep and enjoy the smell. then I don't feel tempted

[@dasauce16]

Damn not first :(

[@jordanwilliams6820]

My average cal intake is around 2500, i am very active and i need the fat, it is not affecting my health in any way, for my age 3000-3500 is average, it is not that hard to get 3500 in a day if you include something unhealthy

[@MrThunderFox]

Do you do all the editing yourself? Its bloody crazy and you upload frequently. Im just saying your videos look like they have been put together by the Justice League while tripping on every psychedelic drug available...

[@GiefGoldPlx]

Hey Frank, I know that you definitely enjoy reading Philosophy so I was wondering what sparked off this ambition in you? Also, do you have a favorite philosopher or philosopher perspective or work(s)?

[@HeyJaredHowYaDoin]

Frank for some reason your videos really hit home with me. No bullshit, you are so confident in the informative videos you put out that my mind is basically fucked by the validity of the points and principles you make. Seriously, thank you

[@StayFit4Life321]

Franky 4 Pres!

[@BgStream]

hmmm cool.frank i think i am learning smth from your vids.they help me to be more real.how bruce lee said ,,The human goal:To actualize oneself,,

[@jordanwilliams6820]

Im stuffing myself with 300-3500 cals a day minimum and im 16, 59 kg, its about my 10th attempt to bulk and i feel this will be the one

[@999124999]

Plz someone respond, while cutting I'm not losing strength but gaining a little bit more reps, is that a clear indication that minimal muscle is lost?

[@DefinitionLegend]

jk love you

[@spanishderp]

This is the first frank yang video that I have watched in which I actually felt like i got good advice.

[@jourdancallahan5820]

Wow this is actually really good advice! Thanks Frank

[@Christopher-lt9gj]

Recently found this video on what to watch. This helped me understand two very important concepts within my own demeanor. 1 the more you think about the unwanted thought, the more it fuels that thought. 2.Not focusing on the thought or surrounding myself around other things, people etc, help keep my thoughts fluid from the unwanted ideation; which in turn causes it to be more diluted and less direct. Thanks Frank - Chri

[@Balldropper]

It's not, I bulk on 3000 and cut on 2000, it's relative to the person though.

[@6reps]

Hey frank, hows your strength progression been since you've been bulking? Pls respond.

[@massoopoo1836]

Thanks Frank for your perspective and advice on cutting. Right now, I'm currently on a cut and I can relate when you say that you were hungry all the time within' your first couple of weeks trying to cut. Also, I tend to have the mindset of hating my new change in my life of eating clean but you say in your video to make your diet a part of you so you don't edgy about the new change of eating. I think your trying to say make eating clean and working out as a part of your lifestyle so you don't get bummed out about it all the time lol. Anyways Frank, thanks for your video and have a great day ;). - M

[@assikopp123]

Thanks Frank! I started my cut and knew that something not right and you just have the exact words for that! you rock

[@XxS0CCERxX]

Wow so interesting i ALWAYS learn something new when I watch your channel, thanks frank!!

[@heyitshorse]

I like your advice; it has a psychological point of view towards cutting

[@michaellee2008]

nice talk Yang. i can see a dramatic body transformation on ya.. congrats fam!!!

[@AboveInShadow]

Your hearing skills helped you to synchronize your vids pretty well.

[@999124999]

Does maintaining strength mean very little muscle loss on a cut?

[@neoda91]

yes thanks alot for this video man something i really needed

[@jungshin87]

Frank what was your weight when you cut to brad pitt mode?

[@deceivingthedeceiver]

Can you trick your brain into wanting healthy/clean food?

[@franksbbc9047]
