Part 2-Nerd Math Edition: The 3 best exercises for Overweight individuals

[@alanrennox7340]

Mark I cannot thank you enough, in may 2021 I was 500lbs, in April 2022 i am 320lbs, doing 5sets of 5 reps on each exercise, 4kg press, 16kg suitcase, 4kg box squat to 20", started at 0kg and 26 inches on squats. started at 5kg suitcase lift and 2 kg press (all on 3 x3). my biceps, pecs and thighs now have definition, can feel the abs but not see them yet. oh and i am 55 and 6ft tall.

[@johnbentley1056]

Thank you so much for this video. I am 62, slightly overweight and with severe lumbar stenosis. I want to lose weight and improve core stability and mobility. Consequently I have tried several so call beginners routines from KZbin. They definitely were not beginners routines and left me in pain. Your explanation of starting point and progression is the best I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing

Hi Mark, I swallowed my ego today and followed your advice on getting in a more functional shape by following your math approach with the kettlebell. I am doing this for two reasons one to shed some pounds and also doing it to be in better shape for the martial Tai-Chi I am doing . Your program and your overall approach to training will help this 67 year old many more years of health. Wish you were around when I was 12 when I started down this path of conditioning .

Perform one movement per day, train daily with one day off (e.g.: Monday DL, Tuesday SQ, Wednesday Press, Thursday off, repeat the cycle on Friday, etc.) Once 20 x 3 - 5 is reached, go up in weight and start again from 3 x 3 - 5.

[@lukekent9687]

I started on 3x3 of these 3 exercises and am now up to 8 sets of 3 reps and I lowered the heights a little as I think I started much too easy. I do these 2-3 times a week and I do the 3 overweight club exercises 3 times a week. I started on a very light club 2kg as my left shoulder is a little weak from sleeping on it but I'm now moving up to 5/5 on a 4kg club with a 6kg ordered and on the way. I'm feeling stronger and confident I can get strong slowly and consistently

[@kobaltkween]

I hate to say, but doctors can be awful about weight loss. For instance, one kept telling my husband to lay off the deep fried foods. At the time we were eating chicken breast and veggie stir fry with noodles or rice pretty much every night. He wouldn't listen to the fact that we were already eating more healthily than your average American, because we're both fat. But we also both grew up fat, and only were ever in shape when working out every day. Or out of the country.

New subscriber and super happy to be here. Question...do you do all 3 (or 4) exercises everyday? Same weight, same amount reps, increase the number of sets per exercise? Just want to make sure I’m understanding. I’m new here 😆

[@Prophetelf]

Adding volume is great for when you can't get a heavier weight right away (easy to increase the weight with a barbell). Solid nerd math Mark!

[@a.lame.username.]

I like to add lots of volume before going to a heavier weight. Technique is the most important part of training and you want to be sure you can do high volume work with perfect form before moving up a weight. It drastically reduces risk of injury.

[@denniseaster6736]

Mark, I love the concept. It is the first plan for deconditioned individuals that makes sense. However I am missing information on the warm up and cool down in my program files. Where can I get some help with this. 12k suitcase deadlift and squat 8k press

Awesome video as always, Mark! I can't pinpoint it, but I keep watching all of your videos even tho they wouldn't necessarily be "helpful" for me, like I don't golf, but I still watched best exercises for golfers whole way thru. Theres just smthng with the pace, structure etc. that keeps me interested and watching the video. Any chance you could make a best exercises for general sports? Like stuff that keeps you going in the field competing for the puck/ball. Like Swing is probs no.1, due to that strenght endurance vid you made a while ago, but some others?

So, I'm upping my reps instead of the number of sets. For example 2 sets, 16kg x 8 presses L/R. I'll increase by 2 reps to x10 when I feel like I can. Is it preferred to up the number of sets instead of the number of reps? Also, thank you for the incredible content!

So HELPFUL!!!! I am doing this program M, T, Th, F using a small bucket filled with stuff, with warm up everyday. When do I increase the sets? What determines the interval? I am 64, weigh 294, 5’10”. Right side WAY weaker and right side shorter. Thank you!!!

[@stephenking3623]

I am 66. Increase the sets when you OWN what you are doing. Never pick up anything unless you are sure you can do it; one minute is usually just the default time. Go longer or shorter as needed.

[@lanayabaker]

@@stephenking3623 actually, now that I am thinking about other videos I have seen by Mark, he says go to 20 sets and then add weight. I think the increment of change to increase the number of sets is per week.

[@Yurup]

Would you recommend this same program for people that are not overweight but in very bad shape? Or would there be things in this you would change?

[@MarkWildman]

If you don’t have GIrth issues, then the deadlift would be a swing. And the press would be a clean and press

[@andreibarbuta]

Do I change the number of sets daily or weekly? How many days a week?

Hey Mark thanks for your videos, you got me hooked to club training. What do you recommend in terms of exercises, reps or time for weight loss and general fitness. Regards: Dom

[@godloveskaren]

This was helpful for me, as are all of your videos so far. I was thinking of doing all 3 kettlebell exercises one day, and the other 3 with club on the other day, but then, near the end, you talked about 1 exercise each day. Do I decide based on my current level of strength (or 'out of shape', lol!)? Because I thought doing 3 exercises sounds okay for me.

Hey Mark, what do you recommend for someone who is overweight but with knee issues (likely knee surgery in the future)? Though those muscle are weak, the Suitcase & Squat would likely kill them

I have knee issues. LCL complete replacement, PCL complete replacement. Popiltius tendon, and destroyed cartilage. You can make the height of the squats higher and the suitcase deadlift higher.

The biggest thing I can say is that my feet hurt soooo much less. I have struggled with plantar fasciitis for close to 20 years and this is the first time I haven’t been on foot pain walking a mile. I have made a lot of changes in the last 3-4 months but starting this has been a game changer for me. Still struggling with building a program that is going to work longer term but Clubs zen me out which means I want to train with it more often than I probably should. I have added mace 360s, mace 10 and 2s, will add a back swings this week. Also still struggling with warm ups and cool downs but getting better. Looking forward to you potentially releasing a program for these exercises. I am sold on club work if I never do anything more than inside circles, outside circles and shield casts. This is the first time in my life I haven’t wanted to quit working out or rehabbing after the first time doing it.

[@patrickokeeffe4787]

Mark........ If an ex-obese person like myself has lost very significant weight and is fairly capable in Kettlebell exercises, can he do a 5 exercise selection per week? For instance: Mon: One Arm Swings; Tues Clean & Press; Weds: Squat; Thurs: One Arm Row; Friday: choice of either Suitcase Carry, Single Arm Floor Press or TGU. Would the "gap" be too long coming back around to the swings again? Or would it be best to pair exercises up with a days rest in between. For instance Mon: One Arm Swings + One Arm Row; Weds: Squat + Clean/Press; Fri: One Arm Floor or stability ball Press or TGU + Suitcase Carry. Would working two exercises in one day when you get to 20 sets be too demanding or too long a training session? Am I being obsessive in trying to hit all the body parts or should I just keep it simple and just go for your above program but just swopping the DL with the One Arm Swing; The Standing Press with the Clean/Press; The box squat with a Goblet Squat without a box; and maybe the seated Press with the TGU or a stability ball chest press. Id like the Suitcase, Overhead and Goblet Carry to be in somewhere and maybe get it in as a finisher. The only thing I'm worried about is leaving out the Row or Chest Press if we go for a TGU. My goal is to still lose weight, be functional, and have a "toned" physique and also to hone my kettlebell skills. I'm 59 years old and had a triple heart bypass about 6 years ago which prompted my to get in better shape. I have a nice selection of bells to work with (10kg;12kg; 14kg; 16kg; 20kg; 24kg) Thanks in advance Patrick

[@quitodbq]

As someone who comes from barbell training and micro loading, the idea of increasing sets with each workout seems like something the body won’t be able to maintain or keep up. But that’s the idea? Add a set with every workout? Even on consecutive days?

[@MarkWildman]

The loads are no where near barbell so it works out. I don’t have people repeat the same load in the same way.... well.... ever if possible. Adding sets, adds work capacity without altering intensity.

[@Jawik2]

Hello, Mark. A nerd-math question. When increasing the weight, does one really start over with the 3x3? Because the overall Work will decrease significantly. Let’s say I’m doing 6x20 16kg = 1920kg moved. Going to a heavier kettlebell, I’m suddenly doing 3x3 20kg = 180kg moved, which is less than one tenth of what I was doing yesterday. Wouldn’t it make more sense to transition to 6x16 20kg = 1920kg moved, and upscale things from there? Or am I missing something and there is a good reason for “hitting the reset button”? Thank you for all the amazing knowledge you’re sharing with the world. You are a river to your people!
