What's your best tips for staying healthy?! :)

[@fofer5586]

Tom Merrick Selfmade bulking bars with oats, honey, peanut butter, milk, cocoa and some seeds took my nutrition to the next level. They are a quick high calorie snack and very easy to prepare for the week! Oh and they taste awesome (:

[@SnowmansApartment]

Tom Merrick not overdoing it, probably.. 😅

[@bradnewman2153]

Eat good food, mostly plants, not too much.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

fofer sounds like a tasty grab and go snack 👍

[@BodyweightWarrior]

SnowmansApartment definitely 🙏

[@tc-3]

Currently catching up on your old videos since they're awesome. I'm contemplating fully switching to bodyweight training. I've done a lot of bodyweight stuff before and definitely felt healthier.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Ah thanks dude! I have to say it's all just tools. Lifting weights isn't bad and bodyweight isn't better, what matters is what you enjoy and what your goals are. Saying this we all know bodyweight is better, c'mon ;)

[@lelandpierce5566]

Hey, Tom. I really enjoy your videos. Your steady enthusiasm is infectious! Keep up the awesome work and please keep sharing your experience. Peace. Ross

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Glad you enjoyed Leland :)

[@thedahakha]

That ending xD Love the fact that the weather is getting better and we can actually train outside comfortably :) It's sad to say, but I forgot to order the shirts... Guess I gotta wait till summer... Train on!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

I can't speak...Yes it is so good to get out outside! Stay tuned Roy, it'll be announced soon!

[@BjornOnBass]

Congratulations for finishing your dissertation, Tom! I know exactly how you must feel! Training is an awesome reward for yourself!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Cheers Bjorn, it definitely is a relief haha. Gotta embrace that freedom, right? :)

[@tomakram872]

awesome Bro love it great motivation inspiring stuff great information as always brother

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Glad I could help brother :)

[@marektropp9896]

Great and informative video, man ! :)

[@BodyweightWarrior]

glad you enjoyed!

[@calisthenicsmarttraining8520]

Great as always!Perfect!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks dude :)

[@JGA99]

I just wanted to say thanks for the excellent resistance band.

[@KeshArt]

really needed this vid! good one man! and BTW what's the nourishing traditions book about?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

good to hear Kesh. It's a cook book based on traditional recipes from a wide range of cultures. It's got a western bias on recipes but it's great for learning how to process food properly (fermenting, soaking, sprouting etc) :)

[@ohhiguy]

Thanks for the inspiration. Good job as always. Adding value to to help us live our dreams. I have decided to nickname this the...True Confessions Episode... at 4:45 in a conspirator hushed confession we hear "I'm a little bit addicted alright?" I love it ha ha ha Did someone yell at you today? ha ha You could be addicted to worse. Fun to watch.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Haha just confessing to my warriors.... Thanks as always for the comments brother :)

[@robinb782]

Really liked those simple meals your doing. Keep experimenting with those and keep sharing! As a student time and money is restricted, for me at least.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Awesome to hear! The oatmeal and eggs is definitely gold for student time and budget :)

[@tigergreg8]

Yes, everyone has an addiction, Mine would be the dark choc. as I once mentioned. But the good stuff. : )~ Like what you have. How many grams of caffeine do you think you consume in an active day? I used to drink a little bit in the morning, then I realized it didn't fit in with my guidelines, plus, it was giving me acid reflux. Really like the Nourishing Traditions book, I don't have as much time to read it as I'd like right now, but I will get through it. Love the music you picked for this video. I asked Siri what the song was, and listened to it 3 times before finishing the video. No, I couldn't wait. Haha Looking really good at 10:25. Your musculature really shows during this movement. I'm not much for breakfast, since I'm not a morning person, so, I've been drinking Garden of Life's Organic Meal. Good stuff. I also have an Organic Coconut Peanut Spread that I think you would like, Mine is enhance with Blue Agave though, and not reg sugar, which makes it low glycemic. I also have Orgain's Organic Super Foods which has Probiotics.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Coffee and dark chocolate is just too good. Umm between 30-40g usually although espresso does extract less caffeine. Coffee loves me and I love it. For me I have to make sure I go decaf every month or so to not become reliant. It's a great reference book for sure. Ah cool man, I feel to suits the content.Awesome man, sounds like you're on it. Thanks for the comment :)

[@MuEnViFitness]

Great freaking video

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks dude :)

[@Snipercyde]

What kind of coffee? Have you tried Kimera Koffee? Gives you mental clarity like a boss

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Currently drinking some coffee from Horsham coffee roasters in the UK. Kimera has some cool health benefits but it's taste is still to be desired ;)

[@blabla1641]

Hey Tom, just a quick question. You may or may not have answered it before but what kind of camera do you use and which program do you use to edit your videos? Peace from Germany, keep going!

[@blabla1641]

Thanks for the quick reply. Have an enthusiastic week!

[@SnowmansApartment]

Dude, i just had a shoulder surgery and will be able to work out again in about 4 Months if i'm lucky 😅.. I want to start really slow to not risk an injury again, do you have any workout plans for "beginners"?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Slow and steady for sure! Build up with the basics and come back stronger than ever. Something like my beginner program from the eBook would suit. Keep the reps high and intensity very low. Good luck and speady recovery :)

[@edwardmagnic8302]

Tom Merrick what do u mean by high intensity?

[@WojciechBogu]

On breakfast daily I eat raw wild eggs in a shake with bannanas coconut oil some healty powders like spiruline and other fruits. Damn delicious

[@BodyweightWarrior]

sounds damn nutritious :)

[@erezpli]

hey tom! great video as always! just been wandering, do you go with sunglasses before you go to bed to improve your sleep?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks Erez. They're blue blocking glasses to help prevent melatonin suppression. Basically yes:)

[@gowen9383]

Very strong frontlever pull ups man

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks Gavin

[@davidkliewer5095]

Hey Tom. Just a thought... Could you could do a quick overview on one of your videos on how you integrate HRV into your training on a daily and weekly basis for programming?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

I've already made a video on how and why I use HRV, check it out here kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKW5d5SEnbeJa9k

[@davidkliewer5095]

Thanks! Just watched it. That was awesome. How do you like the HRV4Training app? I've used Bioforce for almost 2 years now. I would like to try something else, but I'm afraid of losing all my data.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Glad it helped. I've only ever used Nature Beat before bu HRV is my favourite for its simplicity and accessibility. Yeah that data is useful. I would recommend it but I couldn't tell you if its better :)

[@fabio6697]

Hi tom, great content as usual :) can you explain why are you having these macros-splits? aren't fat percentage too high respect your total calories? I am very curious about. Thank you for the tips anyway ;)

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks Fabio. So roughly going for 20:40:40 (Protein, carbs, fat) for macro split, usually edging more towards 20:35:45. Fat isn't bad, in fact, it's essential to our health. I used to eat more towards keto with like 20:20:60 split but have changed a bit with carbs. Energy balance, whole foods and you can't go wrong :)

[@guesswot5311]

What's your best tip regarding weight gains?? Also nice vid as always! I'm a big fan of your work, from Portugal!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks man, keeping it simple: eat more, sleep more and find a balance in training load, often people mistakenly do too much. Less volume but keep the intensity high. Something like my mass gain program in the bodyweight warrior ebook is a good start. Good luck dude!

[@guesswot5311]

Thanks ma man! Btw how od are you? And where do you live?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

22 and the south of England :)

[@declanahern1142]

"March 36th" lmao

[@BodyweightWarrior]

It's the font ;(

[@badrbadro6108]

Nice Video and great content as always .. I have a Question for u tom , how Old are you ? ?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks man. I'm 22 :)

[@jelenamarjanovic1448]

Can you make a video how to progress from a one arm pull up to multiple reps on one arm ?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

If I could I would share it, still struggling to keep one haha

[@jelenamarjanovic1448]

The slowest man with a goal progresses faster than the fastest man without a goal ! so i have no worries for you tom

[@paul1715]

I would love to see your opinion on some books you can recommend for Bodyweight Training. Thanks.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

I made a video on this very topic almost a year ago :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/h32yqHSPZdaVr9E

[@gigabuyceps]

wait how come you can do full front lever, but struggle with strict muscle up (chicken winging)! I am jelly :|

[@Snipercyde]

Wow you listen to mind pump!! I've been listening for 2 years and they've changed the way I view nutrition and fitness. Awesome podcast and I'm glad you listen :) how long have you been listening?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Nice! They're relatively new to me and I found them through Ben Greenfield, seem like a cool bunch of guys! I like they're approach and they're hilarious :)

[@fuggleeartshow]

I work in a factory, so I need some lunch options that are microwave friendly or can be eaten cold. I'm getting super tired of sandwiches. Any sources for ideas?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Salads are always great but not everyone's cup of tea. Soup is another good option. Overnight oat recipes (similar to the soaked oats in this video) are great and can just be eaten cold.

[@fuggleeartshow]

Tom Merrick thanks for sharing. it's cool you're willing to help so many people. i appreciate it. I'm going to try some oats tomorrow :)

[@vpavlovic999]

Do you get any iritation of the golfers elbow from doing pushups ?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Not at all. It's mostly pulling or heavy gripping work :)

[@SuperHeroJay]

Damn dan... I mean tom

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Haha :)

[@NoahLarch]

What do you do for work? (new sub)

[@516estrela]

Your soo cute Tom;D
