Knowing how woke you are im surprised you don't consider solid snake to be toxic masculinity that turns you in to a fascist 🤣🤣🤣

[@chuckleberryflin]

I love how you do this fitness channel, it’s like if Steve Irwin was obsessed with fitness instead of animals. Essentially, you’re an educational entertainer

[@andrewdunn8778]

It's like Alton Brown's Good Eats

[@ivoryas1696]

chuckleberry2175 Mf put it into words 💀

[@lobo_solo214]

Entertaining educator.

[@eldorados_lost_searcher]

About that, apparently Steve Irwin did wrestling on the side. And because he was used to manhandling crocodiles, he was rather good at taking down humans as well.

[@chuckleberryflin]

@@eldorados_lost_searcher Bro you're right! Now that you got me thinking about it, Adam needs to make a 'Train Like a Crocodile Hunter!!!' video 😂

[@jonhdarwin]

"I am the bioneer and I've got issues" that got me cracking

[@thenorthfox2609]

As a MGS fan, this was fantastic. Snake repeating key words as a question was spot on haha

[@ArifRWinandar]

Also the parts where the dialogue explains really basic stuff that Snake should have known for the benefit of the player.

[@Dogman262]

Psycho mantis?!

[@oddoneout1835]

Believable til he said...Press A. It's X bro.😗

[@roymarshall_]

Fun fact: that comes as a result of translating pretty directly from Japanese. Backchanneling is much more culturally important in Japanese conversation than it is in English. If you don't do it frequently the speaker thinks you aren't listening. That often means repeating back key words.

[@surrealistidealist]

Don't forget to do 200 pull-ups for Grip Level 3!

No way, I’ll just wear my orange wig ;)

[@cookie-dough-fox69]

I used to this through my neighbours backyards. I'd see how far down the street I could get, jumping fences and hiding in bushes before someone, or their dog, saw me. In hindsight, I imagine all the neighbours looking out their windows saying, "there's that weird girl, jumping and flipping behind our bushes again."

[@joeyjojoshabadoo889]

That is excellent

[@cookie-dough-fox69]

I used to do something similar when I was little. Only difference is that it was inside my house. I would act like I'm a spy and hide myself in corners, doors, the dark.

[@pn4960]

I love how self-aware and yet uncompromising this is.

[@Mister_Peep]

The people in the park probably think you've finally lost it now 😂

🤣 I was worried I was going to get arrested!

[@kingbyrd.1512]

I love that codec call! You even speak like Snake does. Repeating what the other guy said and framing it as a question.

[@Bloinker]

It's thanks to your dedication to functional training that has inspired me to make my housemates genuinely question my sanity whenever I workout. Thank you

[@surrealistidealist]

Glute development is essential to be like Snake or Raiden.

[@TheLivingTempest]

For real though.

how else are you going to keep alerting the guards

how're you supposed to stealthily sneak around with the sound of your cheeks clapping continuously

Nice video. At least you are fully clothed for this segment and not did a Raiden inside Arsenal Gear. Keep up the great work.

[@JackTheRipper-nw6wk]

That’s on his OF channel

[@somrune]

I effin love that he makes these videos themed on badass characters like Batman and Solid Snake

[@ravennaprojects]

Your videos are very child like in a way, which I mean in the best way. Like as kids my brother and I would get absolutely worked trying to do stuff like this or seeing how quickly and quietly we could get over fences etc, I think it’s so cool and healthy working that fun and imagination back into training as an adult

[@Cmaxb9]

This video makes me so unapologetically happy. It’s like a perfect blend of so many things I love coming together in a very useful and functional exercise video, love the way you put this together and presented it, phenomenal. I’ll make sure to dial into coded frequency 140.85 whenever I need the info

[@andrewjudd9001]

Easily the most entertaining fitness channel along with one of the most informative

[@dankeck6230]

Good video. You do know you are basically practicing tai chi. People seem to think tai chi is just exercise. Practiced correctly, it's a deadly and efficient martial art. I would like to see you do a tai chi video. If you want to move correctly fast, first practice the move as slowly as you can. Cheers

[@TheBioneer]

I am not one of those people! I love Tai Chi - I practiced it for a year when I was younger. I am NOT good, but I’d definitely be interested in investigating it further :-)

[@ttusna]

For whatever reason I naturally walk really silently and sometimes unintentionally scare people by "suddenly appearing" near them

[@cody5404]

Keep doing metal gear solid videos please! The world needs more of these!!

[@joeblooda]

Oh Adam, all those references were so spot on! Loved this kind of content, also because I'm a huge fan of the MGS saga and Kojima productions work in general. The more we delve into fitness and functionality, the more we discover that we're taught nothing during our normal life.

[@sirmagnifus7350]

Lets go,finally a video on metal gear solid and not just that but also those amazing fourth wall breaks aswell!This video was awesome!

[@jamesbridges7750]

There used to be a couple of channels that worked super hard on this stuff- Stealth Technique and Shadow Work. Unfortunately it's not an"acceptable" past-time. If you're out there guys- " Hope you're doing well, some of us remember!"

[@dubya13207]

“Because I’m the Bioneer, and I’ve got issues”…LOL

[@emotionalignition]

There's just so many good things I could say about this. Educational, interesting, exciting, actionable, production values and cool factor.

[@DeepEndDiving]

Live the filmography and the locations you chose to film this video at. It really fit well with the Metal Gear world. Fantastic information to get into what it would take to be Solid Snake. Loved the little expositions like in the games.

Im so happy you did a fitness video based on my favorite hero and i didnt even request it.

[@RevellAndRepend]

''Colonel, can you read me?!'' These vids are a great approach to functional training, inspiring people to work out and get fit through their childhood heroes. It'd be cool to see you doing a vid about Splinter Cell. Similar to Snake but more hanging from bars, ledges as well as the so called ''split jump''. Great work Bioneer

The control and foot position discipline on that slow one armed pushup is exceptional. Adding that one to my routine for sure.

[@RealBigDLil]

David Hayter would love this video.

[@sorelbaid]

I learned a lot of this stuff from reading Tom Brown Jr. and I would highly recommend his books: The Tracker, The Way of the Scout, and Tom Brown’s Field Guide to Nature Observation and Tracking. He talks at length about the super slow type of movements used in stalking, as well as the awareness required to be effective.

[@matttcameron_]

Love all the confused Snake references in the codex clips!

[@protector808]

Aaah nostalgia for the first MGS game on PS1, especially loved the intercom conversation, nailed it!

[@CC-mb8fi]

As a 65yo ret vet instructor, stealth is not simply putting your foot or hand down softly. If you are stalking on foot, its very much weight on the back foot, back leg bent in a half crouch while extending your front foot slowly, hovering in a balanced position that enables you to "feel" the terrain in front of your foot, lightly touching the ground without transferring weight to the front foot. Balancing on the back foot in this manner enables you to feel objects that are sharp (think large thorn, or spikes etc), brittle, slippery or muddy terrain without transfering weight onto the front foot. A sort of slowrelease isometric type movement. The transfer of weight is so incremental that if something is detected underfoot, the weight transfer can be stopped, reversed and the foot (or hand if crawling) placed in a better position all while maintaining balance. This muscle control and focus is practiced while being aware of your environment around you and the control should be so complete that at any stage you can completely freeze movement in total balance. Your backpack should be strapped tightly to your body to move as a part of your body and not shift suddenly to upset balance, and straps or any loose equipment fastened or taped up. A straight edged strap moving in the wind while you are motionless is a red flapping flag to any person scanning an area. You practice mind and muscle connection control for hours and hours on end. Like the horse squat/ stance for one....... As an instructor you can break a strong man in minutes with a simple pillow you use on your bed, or get you to collapse face first into the ground on a parade ground in minutes. Mind muscle control. And awareness of yourself inside the environment...... The ability to stalk someone inside a chainlink fence in moonlight that they are not aware of you being so close that you are 2-3 m away from them and they have no cause for alarm...... SF is nothing like the shock and awe in movies The most successful operation is when you have been, and gone, and they didnt even know you were there.....and it took you 3 days to get that close and 4 days to get out with no food. Why? Food leaves an aroma on the night atmosphere through your breath and your sweat on a still day that can alert.....

[@caeluskami]

Now we need a train like Ryu and Ken video

[@mattlawyer3245]

Love this video. Thanks again.

[@Niborino9409]

I notice the absorb impact during kickboxing training when we do squats with a jump. I can land softly and carefully but others can't and land flat footed with a thud. Depends on what you are used to I suppose.

One of the coolest vids ever! "Hold A to walk..." 😂

[@balazsbrankovics2996]

Great video! I like that you add a side note on the psychological impact, and that you need adequate recovery for that one as well. It would be great if you could make a video on that subject. What is the fine line between pushing your limits and respecting your boundaries? Doing long rowing sessions help me improve my stress tolerance, but can lead to accumulating more stress through daily life than what I can recover. Probably adding some kind of (psychological) deload would make sense.

Fun video. Liam was probably weighing more as well for that jump, he's fit but not as muscular I think, but still taller... so that might be why he was making more noise jumping than expected.

Whats funny is in MGS1, theres literally a codec call dedicated to describing in detail how to do these quiet walking techniques. If you call Master Miller while in the Tank Hanger and standing on one of the loud catwalks he describes this process.

[@marvinperez3314]

First time I've heard and seen this, very interesting 🤔 thanks for sharing 👍 😀

[@andreweston7089]

I really enjoy your videos and apply a lot of your suggestions. Have you looked at Systema - Russian martial art used by their special forces? There is a big focus on breathing, staying relaxed and doing the type of quasi-isometrics from the snake video. Have a look at Matt Hills posts. He’s an ex Para who runs Systema Academy in the UK and well worth contacting.
