My Return To Rugby Training

[@misterbeard2881]

Hi, just wanted to say that I have been a fan of Joel and Lea for years and by extension have come across your channel now and am absolutely loving it! I think what you are doing with your life is amazing and could not be prouder to support your efforts. Great job, keep it up! I

Welcome aboard!

[@123Iamawesome321]

It was empowering to know that you phrase being a fitness coach as someone who has to find alternative solutions to your clients lifestyle such as a being a busy doctor with a husband and several dependants. Look forward to your next event with Joel. Thanks for sharing your life going back to Rugby Keegan.

[@keeganandjoel]

Absolutely. Helping someone is finding a solution, not shaming them into another way of thinking

[@SonjaHanson1]

Thanks for letting us get a glimpse into your very busy life. I admire how dedicated and positive you are. Keep sharing with us… you are a great inspiration.😊

[@keeganandjoel]

Very kind Sonja, I’ll do my best!

[@michaeljamesleslie]

Most likely, you will not see this but I had to write. I am an Actor/Singer from New York. I want to say that you are the positively the best. I started to watch videos during the pandemic and the affliction has unfortunately continued. LOL!!! The reason that many people to watch you is that you are "looker." A lot of the gay videos are full of neuroses, nascent fat shaming, hubris and things that I consider frivolous. You appear to be honest, straightforward, humorous, strong, and loving. You talk about the human condition which appeals to everyone not just gay people. I truly feel that you are talking directly to the listener, and that is addictive. Proof that you are the best? The way your son looks at you in this video. Favorite line from your videos: "It is not about coming out...but letting people in." Wonderful. Joel Wood is a very lucky man and should thank God you came into his life.

[@jackydoualan8539]

Hi Keegan just popped in to say hi I’m a big fan of Joel’s I find you to be a very sweet and humble man the fact that you are a coach and a rugby player is incredible you’re a man with hidden talents well I’ll be seeing you on both channels can’t get enough for you Jacky the old lady from Montreal PS I love the way you take care of your Nan sending big hugs

[@justinmynatt9438]

Your face when you tried the double espresso was hilarious. I laughed so hard! 🤣

[@QuincyDisneyVegan]

Keegan, Welcome to vlogging! You and Joel are great! I came over from Joel's channel. I love your videos, and your sense of humor and style are AWESOME!

[@LorraineinPNW]

Oh, such a sweet man...visiting your gran weekly!

[@joemalick]

Great vlog, Keegan, it was fun. You’ll see that with many of Joel’s viewers, we like the everyday life stuff, so keep it up, it makes it very relatable! Also, for many of us in the US, we don’t have much exposure to rugby, so that makes for interesting content for us. And it’s really sweet that you look after your Nan, it takes a real man to care like that. Looking forward to the next vlog. 🙂

[@matthewjohnson7978]

Loving these so far. I'm looking forward to the next. Thanks for sharing.

you are very supportive of joel and encouraging to him in a no nonsense way.

I became aware of you when you first came out some seven years ago. I thought you were quite the guy - and admired you. Now your hooked with Joel - so happy for you both...and I'll admit I'm jealous of Joel claimed you and you claimed him. Best of luck - love you both

[@carlamohler8402]

I follow Joel and I found you! I love both channels-you are a great couple! You are a movie star couple- great charisma and authenticity. Love you both!

[@robertpoppen2610]

I’m so happy to see you starting these vlogs. You are “a natural” on camera. So entertaining and engaging. Can’t wait to see your channel take off. I can only imagine a million subscribers in your future. I also so very much respect your advocation of the gay community. I can’t even know the degree of self confidence and fortitude it must have taken you to not only come out, but to remain active and vital in your sport; and to share aspects of your personal life with us. You are an exceptional person and I wish you all the best!

[@stevencram3062]

Steve from St. Petersburg,FL USA Have been following your partner in crime, Jole for some time now. He's kind of crazy (in a good way) but love him. I truly enjoyed your vlog. I have watched a little rugby on TV but still need to learn much more. Keep up the good work!!

Funny thing. In my feed came your interview 7 years ago when you came out and I was thinking “Joel you don’t know how lucky you’re gonna get in 7 years from now”. Been following Joel for at least 4 years. He’s totally a new person since you’ve been together. Enjoying your videos also. Take care and be safe.

New Subscriber from New Zealand. This popped up on my recommendations, but this was fun to get an insider look on the day-to-day .. Footy (Rugby) is definitely a big thing here, so it was great to get insights. Wished more rugby players could do vlogs like this, wold be entertaining.

[@jcbaily5559]

I have always sworn my health has been protected by my taking multivitamins and when I have drank alcohol I do take extra vitamins to counter the effect which has always worked for me. However, I learned early that caffeine/alcohol destroys some if not many vitamins if taken together and I noticed that both you and Joel seem to take your vitamins with your morning coffee, the same holds true for drinking alcohol, I normally take my vitamins before having alcoholic drinks so that my system is ready. And so far, I have reached a fairly decent age but I was wondering if you had heard of situations like I have described? Take care and have a great day.....I do enjoy your all's videos!

[@danielimpastato3466]

Hi Keegan - what a great job on vlog#2 - super editing‼I really liked the part about the vitamins. I'm big on nutrition and we take some of the same supplements although I am a really small character at 5'7 130 lbs. A bit of tone, though... I do a lot of Hot Yoga 👍🏼 You had a really busy week, congrats on getting back into rugby 👏 Say hi to Joel from me and have a nice time together. Hope your Nan feels better soon. I'm looking forward to the next vlog. Nice kits - we don't use that word in the states so I'm glad you had yours to display. Mugs piling up is a good sign for your future. 😊 Cute letters to Santa 🎄I know you'll be spending some quid on the kids🎅‼

Glad you are vlogging. Love that you look after your Nan. My brother and I are always telling my Mom to call us when she needs stuff. Definitely related to that. And the school run…..

KEEGAN, thank you for your time in filming your vlog. You are an inspiration. I’ve recently signed up with the Omada program through my employer health insurance. Thanks for your inspiration. Give ol’ Fen a pet & a kiss from Oklahoma. Bless your and Joel’s relationship and Fidelity❣️FYI, Keegan, as one back-pain sufferer to another. Ever since a physical therapist turn me on into keeping my hamstrings stretched twice daily a.m. & p.m. my lower back no longer bothers. The hamstring un-stretched builds tension & pulling on the gluts. Which in turn, pulls and stresses the lower back muscles.

Hello from Southern Middle Tennessee. Like others have said I've been following Joel and Leah for a long time. Have been really happy to find that he has found someone as kind and caring as you are to him. I know absolutely nothing about rugby. I am looking forward to learning something about the game from you. Nashville has a rugby team but I don't know much about it. Perhaps one day you and Joel can make a trip to Nashville. I think Joel really liked the City. I hope your season goes well.

Another great Vlog, Keegan! You are a natural infront of the camera, you already seem so comfortable. I came over from Joel's channel, and I know absolutely nothing about Rugby or fitness but I'm enjoying watching and getting to know about u and your interests, so thanks for sharing! As a fellow gay person, I'm curious, since u came out so publicly I'm assuming everyone knows now and is supportive on your team - but was it always that way? Are u returning to the same team and same teammates? Did u have to have any open conversations to make sure everyone was supportive in order to feel comfortable yourself or just to play as a united team? I didn't come out till after I stopped playing sports so i cant imagine how challenging it can be, especially in a male dominated game like rugby. Anyway, it's so nice to see proud representation in sports now. I never had that growing up. You are awesome. 😎
