my new favorite fitness channel

[@Matt-nh2hp]

Ikr! 15 handstand push-ups is nuts even for decently fit people

[@RSRS-ws3px]

I always get a little smile when I hear someone in their 30’s say they are getting old! I know everyone ages differently but I still felt 21 when I was 35. If I hadn’t had the bike crash at 35 and a half years old I don’t know how much longer I would have still felt great before the decline. I was 39 before I was physically back to somewhat normal after having my surgeries but I really didn’t start feeling crappy until I got into my 50’s.

[@barrybogart5436]

I am 79. Was run down FIVE times by cars while cycling. A Randonneur for 30 years. Don't get on that slippery slope! A few friends of mine in their 70's did back-to-back 200, 300, 400 and 600s to prepare for Paris-Brest-Paris. I did twice in my 50's. That was enough.

[@RSRS-ws3px]

@@barrybogart5436 I miss riding as much as I used to, I rode every day back when I could. I could still ride more than I do if I could find the time but with my back I know I could never go as far as I did back then. These days most of my riding is the almost 1/4 mile down my driveway from my house to the mailbox. I never expected to be so old so young!

Honda lawn mowers are the best they start up always and last for years and years great video Cedric.

[@John-xw3lr]

Pete, THANK YOU FOR THE PUPPY LOVE! MADE MY DAY BROTHER! Love ya!

[@Howlin000]

I started running again after many years and eating more healthy, sallads etc. I'm almost 40 and I feel it really helps

[@shaynegables]

I am an underpants Dad and thanks you reminded me to order a new keychain light. As always you've cost me money Pete. Love you man

[@VeniVidiVid]

Can you blend in some twisted sisal rope cuts onto the smoothie? Good fiber, that.

[@kymcopyriot9776]

Thanks Pete - always great to see new stuff, whether it’s goopy smoothies, knives, chickens or rooting dogs.

[@krazmokramer]

Starry Night Lego is pretty cool! So is that Akubra Pastoralist. Interesting video. You all have done a really nice job on your home since you first purchased it. This is a great video, Pete! THANK YOU!!

[@spyhunter6411]

That early Nutnfancy timeframe is where grails and preferences were built haha. For me it’s the sebenza 21, 100% of my knife preferences were built the day I saw that video haha.

[@npenick66]

We appreciate you sparing us the underpants routine. I think a lot of us middle aged Dad's shop the same way. I'll hit up Duluth Trading every other year or so and buy a few T shirts of each color in long and short sleeves and a few pairs of their ball room jeans. The wife doesn't get it but after almost 20 years she's used to it. Once I hit my late 30's my preference for knives moved away from folders to smaller fixed blades just for sturdy ease of use. Almost losing part of a finger to fidgeting with a large Cold Steel folder had nothing to do with it, I swear... After seeing your vids and a few others last year I moved from the Izula 2 to a Creely Mako in magnacut for my daily driver and have been very happy with it.

[@mtpmc]

These recap of sorts vids are my favorite of yours. I feel you with just wanting a mower to work. Once my current one gives out, I will go back to manual reel mowers. Keep up the great work and enjoy the game in a few weeks.

[@arrowheadguys7637]

As a lawncare company owner, the Toro Personal Pace mowers are absolutely unbeatable for a pushmower. But Honda engines are legit.

[@BarryMcColeman]

Don't mess with Pete-those head stand pushups are for bad ass mo-fo's. Thanks for filling us in!

[@blueswan2175]

yeah thats next level stuff

[@OneMinuteKnifeReview]

Hey Pete, as a Physical Therapist (you'd likely say Physio Therapist) I think your exercise routine is excellent, it's the exercises you'll actually do that matter! And time invested while (relatively) young pays off tremendously later (I do geriatrics now...)

[@knoxknifemods]

Ain’t nobody can argue with the quality of a Honda lawnmower

[@finneas_0710]

Always appreciate this type of recap video! Thanka Pete, your content has made my day!

[@ryanbuck1405]

Fun fact. Joseph Pilate actually created Pilates for boxing, but his first studio was next to a ballet studio, so the first main adopters of pilates were professional dancers. Thus the "girly" ethos of pilates. Now you can feel more manly doing Pilates!

[@ShivSilverhawk]

Awesome! That’s what I need! I only use weights. Never tried the gym. Great luck man!

[@LarsRibe]

Yay, I'm not the only one with a favorite mallet. Also: nice Vlog 👍 you hit a sore spot with that training/diet part. Must..pull..myself..together.

[@kvernesdotten]

I was served chia pudding in the hospital on a regular basis. That cured me from eating chia ever again.

[@MrProctitus]

A Shun Classic chefs knife was my first proper kitchen knife. I found myself starting again in life and needed to equip a basic kitchen. And so awakened my suppressed and dormant obsession with quality knives In the kitchen, on my belt or in my pocket. I really rate the shun. I spend an abnormal percentage of my life slicing chicken either for me or my cat with diet requirements and the Shun is as good as it gets.

[@damonmuzzy277]

The life videos are my favorite, tbh. Wanted to touch on Shun knives. I have one and enjoy it, but I have found that my Wusthof’s seem to sharpen quicker, and hold an edge a bit longer. This is not to criticize Shun, as they are at a lower price point, and I wouldn’t expect them to perform quite as well. Also, absolutely great advice for fitness. Just 10-15 daily, with just body weight is where it’s at, to be as fit as you need to live your best daily life.

[@BrentonCarr]

Wise choice to start good habits early on (30s is early on) . Way harder to fix what ails you later.

[@michaelandrew8493]

Should get a pull up bar for some back work also

[@jackjohnson291]

Good lord! I can’t believe a walk behind (even a Honda) would go for so much. I guess I really lucked out with mine (also a Honda, looks to be the same or similar model). I picked it up used from someone who literally mowed 15ft worth of grass with it once a week for less than a few months for $100. She said it just took up too much room in their tiny garage. Dang, now I feel bad about it.

[@billbush1270]

Levis Signature Gold jeans have a nice concealed pocket on the outside seam of the right leg. It zips under the edge of a flap concealed by the seam for security of money or small wallet. The pockets on the ones you are wearing look like what used to be put on "carpenter jeans" that also had a hammer loop on one side.

[@billbush1270]

USA purchased.

[@enigma3429]

Nice work! I got a shun knife too. Love it

[@musketmerve1436]

Roundhouse jeans are awesome.

[@arrowheadguys7637]

Pete, anyway to suggest turning down the mix on your music during cut-scenes? I have to crank the volume to barely be able to hear you when you're talking, but then when it cuts to the music its absolutely blaring

[@gunner4373]

Have to agree, the music is way too loud compared to the rest of the videos.

[@carlcypher]

Make your own videos kiddo, Pete is doing just fine

[@awdtw]

​@@carlcypher Hey champ. Believe it or not, Pete is a well rounded fella who is more than capable of taking on board feedback and can, remarkably, figure out if he wants to make changes or not based on it. Glad it works for you though. 🖕 Oh, its this one.👍

I carry an Eagtac D25A Ti. Great light!

[@_brianm]

Love to see that tip-down PM2 👍🏻

[@MrDgonzo77]

Eww

[@RSRS-ws3px]

We must be the few who like tip down. Why do people like tip up? I had a tip up knife go through the the tip of my thumb when I reach to get it out of my pocket in a hurry! I didn’t realize it had become slightly open while in my pocket. That wasn’t much fun.

[@sopwithcamelus]

Al Mar Eagle is a great knife. I had an HD in VG-10. It was remarkably strong for such a slender, elegant knife.

[@yankee23a]

Im feeling the HUUSK......Love ❤❤❤🥰

[@anthonycampos7417]

Save the remains of your sisal rope cuttings and try to turn that into a knife scale with epoxy. Just having the blanks is good enough then maybe you can have some local maker attach and finish the scales for you

[@danielcluley870]

Hey pete, I would recommend the Ontario SPL Pack Knife in Magnacut. It is my new favorite camp/kitchen knife. Great design for overall camp tasks and I have actually been using it as a versatile smaller kitchen knife instead of a chef knife lately just to try it out and it is very good at that. Would love to see you try one out and/or test it. Thanks for the vids, as always, and you look like you are doing well with simplifying your life and getting into a good sustainable routine.

[@mrc2205]

I prefer the FRN as well. Just nicer when using a lot.

[@_BLANK_BLANK]

I never really cared if handles were fiberglass cored, or wood. Until i took a cheap amazon fiberglass handled hammer i was using for forging, and replaced it with a wooden handle. And my god i never thought it would make such a big difference. But it was a world away. Also. Kitchen knives were always what i cared about most. I got into edc because of the steels. But just wanted to say. Most people underestimate a truly good kitchen knife. You kind of start to get an idea of how a good kitchen knife feels with a shun. But there are this a whole world of them out there. And they can put a dent in someones wallet just as big as edc knives.

[@Yarramen-Yaro]

You should do a cut test on spyderco AEB-L mule with 62-63hrc and able to handle a 12 degree angle.

[@mcm4point2o]

heyo Pete i know this is a dumb question but have you heard of / watched Field Days?!? can't get enough of you Aussie sonofaguns!

[@davidpape9179]

Have you ever reviewed the cold steel Demko ad 15 with the scorpion lock. I’m considering getting it but haven’t seen too many reviews on it

[@stuartb9194]

A gentlemen never goes tip down!

[@tanman7627]

Do you carry your gun barrel up ...😅

[@CNYKnifeNut]

@@tanman7627 That argument is counter productive to the point you think you're making. Think of how the handle ends up in your hand when pulling it out of your pocket in tip down vs tip up. Not that there's any logic to your super hilarious and original meme joke, though.

[@dionysus6892]

I like the hat Pete

[@Bogart995]

Loved watching this with the fiancé. Have you checked out blood borne by chance? Recently played it and it might be up your alley.

[@gmorel1916]

Solid video 👍🏻. Weird that Spyderco chose to use the old FRN texture and clip on that Atlantic Salt even though it’s the new gen steel and color… The other Salts got upgraded to the new bi-directional texture.

[@onionwife8507]

I believe they are 505s! :)

[@dirkmohrmann8960]

0:40 you are experiencing why I as a lefty don't own a spyderco (yes I know they make ONE version of the pm2 that's left handed). Would be nice if you added some comments about ambidextrous usability in your videos. With folding knives it's usually somewhat obvious, but it's unbelievable how many fixed blades don't have any options for left handed sheaths. Even kydex sheaths can't always be switched around and you often don't know for sure until you get it in your hands.

[@swenic]

Good stuff..

[@Lenduya]

I've noticed that some of the steels you have tested recently aren't on the chart, like 15V, Magnacut. Will you add them eventually?

[@barrybogart5436]

I have a Shun. VGmax they say now. But have you looked at the new Mora knives with the mystery metal? Seem overpriced.

[@RM-xd5gp]

K390 Stretch might be Spyderco's best knife... at least for a "user" knife.

There was an outbreak of hepatitis A from frozen berries a few years ago in Australia, I Can’t remember the origin of the hepatitis berries but it was a thing for a while.

@@onionwife8507 Oh wow, that’s crazy. Thanks for the explanation!

To get fit you need to put on a gas mask and go outside and keep smashing all your knives until they break. Try coconut cream, watermelon and grapes. None of that spinach and other crap.

[@sic5168]

Pete…. I need a new kitchen knife, k2 or something else?

[@brewman6218]

Noice knives. I am starting to think that Lc200n is very similar to 14c28n in all but stainlessness. Have you ever tested Civivi 14c28n's edge retention? I am about Civivi because I think they have better heat treat than Kershaw and other Chinese knife companies. It would be interesting to see you put those two steels against each other in a slice off.

[@jonathanrowan4802]

You got suckered into the husk knife too? That thing is complete junk. I used it once cutting an onion it dulled and the handle came loose. I threw it directly in the trash after it would not take an edge.

[@markushofer7657]

Hey Pete, i noticed your legs dont get much love in your routine. I would highly recomend checking out bulgarian split squats. There is a learining curve to it, but its a really healthy stabilzing movement thats often used for knee health an it works pretty much all your leg muscles.

[@eyeofthetiger4184]

Gday Pete, a bit in this one mate, ...... a hump'n good vid : ) I can tell you as an ex-sparkie. being invited to peoples homes on a daily basis, many, many folks dont pay nearly enough attention to, lets say a, "health and well being" regimen. Doesn't mean one has to train and eat like an elite athlete, but in this day and age, use what is scientifically established as a benefit, (mind you more research is needed, especially in the herbs and spices department IMO). Hey man, I reckon your own body weight is the only "gym" equipment you ever need; bicycle sit ups are a perfect example. Try hand stand push ups without a wall, ..... now that's a challenge, I'll be be buggered if that's even worth aiming for lol. Yep Kayaking is a ripper, (pardon the pun), for upper body, great fun too and simply walking for the legs, cycling, maybe some squats, does the business down below. Main thing is, what ever you do, and indeed noth'n new, is start real slow, and add a few repetitions/more, distance gradually over weekly or fortnightly intervals. Btw; I actually got "poo pooed" for supporting your Honda purchase, yes Victa has always seen me through, but I'm well aware that the Honda jobs are next level again, albeit for a few extra hundred drachma ... but the proof is in the pudding mate, .... good call !!! Sadly, it seems, the Spydys are in your veins ........ we can only take 'em as we find 'em I guess. Cheers Duke.
