If It Matters To You, You Will Make Time | Hyrox Prep, Episode 3

[@gabec9529]

As a 19 year old man, watching Nick is honestly the only way i’ve found to learn how a man should really act. Not about fear mongering someone to believe in them, but to just show how a man should act.

[@th1nk.OUTLOUD]

Yeah! Absolute role model 🤙🏽

[@BERTEBOY]

As a 40 year old man, I agree.

[@peytonplatte6455]

As a 22 year old man, I agree.

[@Ajsof10]

As a 28 year old man, I agree.

[@tannerrasco5436]

Yes sir

[@joezaremba]

Thank you for the video! I am 46, a husband, a father to 3 boys in sports, work full-time, run, and am training for a 50K in Oct. Life is very full and always planning to get my miles in is tough. When my son has a 10am game Saturday morning and I have an 18-mile trail run that day, my alarm goes off very early to fulfill my goals but to make sure I am back and we all go to his game as a family because I made a promise to him that I will be back in time. But like you said, if it matters to you, you will make the time! Thanks for sharing.

[@readmycomment3157]

Honestly bros, being a father is such a level up in life. Suddenly it all makes sense. You have purpose. You have a legacy. You have value in your life. You have a reason to do it all. Forget partying or sex or money, being a dad is on a different level entirely.

[@noahpearce4105]

Well said mate, agree 100%

[@GHOSTSrunning]

👊

[@williamjames3995]

Glad that this experience helped you mature. I personally don’t need a child for this. As Sigmund Freud said: the ultimate goal is to become one’s own father and mother.

[@captainkryptex1986]

Bruh stop gaslighting childfree guys. There's no need to make them feel like their lives have no value, purpose or meaning without a kid or two. And btw, most people who decide to not have kids don't do it so that they can drink, dance, travel and f*ck all day long.

[@Eva-lv1lj]

@@captainkryptex1986I had a child recently. I can confirm other things don’t seem to matter. Maybe as the glow wears off. And it’s probably not the same for everyone. It’s not gaslighting it’s more a cliche that I’ve known to be true. Doesn’t mean you can’t feel fulfilled or have a purpose without children. It’s just we are human and we want to care make a difference leave something to this world. Feel connect. A child brings out those things. Like when you meet the love of your life and wanne be a better person or take care of them

[@ricardoamaya2500]

You are basically everything that I love about people like David Goggins, but plus the righteous family oriented side of things. I love it.

Today I finished my first ever marathon, the Helsinki marathon. I couldn’t have done it without your videos and advice so thank you so much! The motto ‘go one more’ and ‘embrace the suck’ really kept me going! Thank you 🙏

[@norppa658]

Hell yeah! I did my first HM at the same event. Started running 2months ago! Also GZ on the achievement! ill be running a full marathon next year. I finished in 2:17

Responsibility before routine - LEZ GEDDIT!!!

[@alexg_getfit6195]

Nick, I am a 33 year old father,husband, student, and full time manufacturing supervisor. I have fallen into a bad hole of unhealthy eating, gained 40 lbs and fell off the wagon. Thank you for this, I needed this more than you’ll ever know! Go one more!

[@joesph9748]

You have a lot going on. Make some gradual changes and you will be back before long. It’s not easy with your schedule.

[@mr.sergeblack]

Body first. Head second. Your mind will follow your body. Just focus on your body first. Don‘t try to do too much. Just healthy eating and training. Your mind will follow. At the beginning of 2024 I was about to take my life… but something stoped me. I watched a lot of Nicks videos and started to train. My mind was still in a deep hole, but I was just focusing on training. Than I added healthy food and 5 month later I was clear in my mind. Somehow I knew what I wanna do, where I wanna be and what kind of role model I wann be for my 2 year old son. I feel good right know. Lost some pounds. Gained some muscles. Love what I see in the mirror. Just start with your body. Your mind will follow. I see you brother. I feel you brother. Stay strong

[@911eVoX]

First of all, lose the job and become a full time influencer

Congrats on the baby! Outstanding! Best things in life are God, my wife, and my KIDS! You will build such amazing memories with them. Family is so fulfilling brotha, couldn’t agree with you more. God bless.

Nick is exactly what KZbin should be about. Learn, inspire, and positive change. Cheers Nick! You're an incredible roll-model.

[@joshualelo]

staying committed to your workouts during newborn days is definitely impressive, but also staying committed to creating these vlogs and sharing your life with the BPN community online is extremely impressive and appreciated. shoutout to the media team that also gets up in the dark hours to film nick

[@codyhang30]

As a 30 year old dad I use you as motivation as well. Just became a dad and I always make sure to work out . Congrats to your baby boy Nico!

[@Sealegs9]

The baby is finally here!!!!!! He’s super cute! I’m so happy for you guys! Hope Steph is recovering and getting much needed rest. Sending hugs 🤗

[@Dba-ex2ed]

It's incredible to see how you're adapting your training routine to the different stages of life, Nick. Watching your post gave me déjà vu, reminding me of when I used to play with my daughter when she was 2. Now that she’s almost 5, I’ve had to adjust my morning routines to match each phase of her growth as well. It’s not always easy, but it’s definitely worth it. Nick, keep being authentic, stay committed as a dad and husband, and keep sharing your journey. Best wishes from a long-time follower in Europe-hybrid athlete, dad, husband and business man. P.s. A wise men told once: Embrace the challenges, adapt with purpose, and keep what matters most at the heart of your journey.

[@kobusbarnard7372]

"Embrace the challenges, adapt with purpose, and keep what matters most at the heart of your journey" amazing advise! Thanks for sharing

[@connorsingley5464]

In an effort to make time for my fitness and work related goals, I will now be watching your videos in 2x speed. All the wisdom half the time commitment!

Congratulations to Steph & u on a new baby. Wish u ur family healthy prosperous life.

The two minute of the video is real ❤ talking and congratulations nick for having a baby and Steph too ❤️ so sweet looking nico ❤

[@joshmurray4427]

I’ve said for years if you want something bad enough you will make or find time to make it happen,but hearing how you explained it makes so much more sense!! I’m on a wait loss journey for a 3rd time and haven’t been using my time wisely the past few months especially the past 3 weeks, I really needed to hear how you put it!!

[@fadelmuthana9723]

Best of luck to you. You got this.

Ok, I’m hooked. So glad I found this channel. Nick is a true American Bad Ass. His philosophy & approach to training, family, business, and life in general is so inspirational. Go Nick!

[@user-tx9et8in6f]

I never comment on KZbin videos but I’ve been a hardcore Nick Bare follower since his military vlogs. As a recently married 26 year old, this video is an incredible reminder of what the standard of being a good man looks like. Thank you Nick.

[@joshdobbs23]

Same here! Been a fan since he came out with the 100 mile ruck video 5 years ago. Also 26 and been married about 7 months now.

[@frijoleapapi1]

I hardly ever comment but you are so inspirational. Love everything about you man. Keep inspiring. Brings me so much joy to be inspired by you and apply what I learn little by little. Always be happy, never be satisfied. Anything in life worth doing is worth overdoing, moderation is for cowards. Love how you mention responsibilities come before routine.

[@doseofwill]

As an aspiring father who cannot wait to have my first kid, this hits deep. My biggest mental block has been losing my sense of self, my identity, and my dedication to fitness. This is such a positive message to put out into the world to help us all realize we can adjust if we make the time. Thank you for being vulnerable, sharing with us your family and your family routine, and being a role model to us all.

[@mr.sergeblack]

Oh, brother. You will lose yourself. But if you don‘t give up you will find yourself much, much stronger. Believe me. I‘ve been through this and I‘m happy it happened to me.

After watching your last man standing video I’ve never thought I would be addicted to watching your videos as a young man 29 going to 30 You taught me what’s it’s really like to do everything by your own means while devoting time with family and friends even for yourself Nowadays I feel better being myself and able to becoming a better man enjoying life how it should be , thank you for showing up in my life thru KZbin you made a big impact in my life NICK thank you 🙏

What an inspiration and role model nick is. Keep up the amazing work. Loving it all. Puls can we please get your products to ireland/EU 💚💚🤍🤍🧡🧡

[@stephenchaseclark]

Hear my out first...I love the drive, but it motivates, while dumbfounding me to hear you did 7 miles in an hour at a 125 bpm. I ran my first 5k in 14 years (the last time was in Iraq for the NCO run while waiting to redeploy home) this morning at 39 after 3 months of getting back into running and set a starting PB of 31 minutes with a couple massive hills and averaged a 168 bpm at a 10.2 pace average. (first mile was 9 minutes).. hearing that you ran your morning run in zone 2 floors me, though I fully understand the difference in a few months of training over a years (decade plus). Now for everyone that thinks I'm complaining, I am not. This drives me. It was watching Nick that got me into doing this 5K today, and it is what now gives me a new drive to reach a new goal in the next race. Fortunately Virginia has a fantastic running group that gives me plenty of options through the entire year.

[@tiffanybrantley23]

And don't forget those hills your run had! I mean, Nick has a massive fitness run base, but even he would have had a higher HR for his level of fitness if he'd had crazy incline!

[@Kalebmstewart]

The level of production and care that goes into your videos is insane! So well done from every shot, song, information, work you put in. What a monster. Nick is out there crushing life! Congratulations on adding to your beautiful family ❤

[@waltermidkiff3662]

As a family man my first thought was “did he open that garage door at 5am?!” Shhhh

Thanks Nick for this video! Love the Family dynamic which makes this video so real and complete. Encouraged by what you said to not find time for whats important, but to be intentional and make time for what matters (forward thinking and backward planning - epic phrase!). Congratulations on your newborn son Nico! He has an epic name! It means to conquer, to overcome, to prevail, to gain the victory 🏆💪🏻✨

[@bayarearob]

Thanks for posting! I haven't run across your videos in some time. I was going hard for about 5 years with trail running and smashing hills on the mountain bike before Covid. I had my first child that year and kinda lost myself. I haven't found my way back, but it's good to see this.

[@jonathanhart8730]

I appreciate the quality of content you're maintaining throughout this change- the editing, the training, the message. These transparent, honest, and reflective videos are especially motivating for me because they touch on the human challenges in each of our lives as we try to balance training for anything! I hope all of you make time for what matters to you this week!

[@paolointhenight]

Sub 6:30 on a 2k erg test is absolutely legit. For a non-rower it's almost unheard of. Fantastic work, can't week to see your erg test! I was a rower in college and turned to ironmans/endurance sports in my later 20's and 30's. The 2k erg test for time is still one of the hardest, most painful fitness challenges I think I've ever done. Longest 6-7minutes of your life.

Nick makes a great point that if it’s important you will make the time. That’s a great piece of advice. My only comment to that is make sure that you remember your kids value your time more than anything. So make sure they get the best version of you. I did ok with this but could have been better.
