[@minomeeni]

I don’t know if you take requests and this is very random I don’t even know if you know each other, but you should have Medhi on your podcast! He does vlogs and beauty and he’s so well spoken and just has this very bright aura I’d love to hear you exchange on living abroad or skincare.

[@kunyangnyangnim]

I’ve been begging Mehdi needs his own podcast too LOL he can make the ABC sound interesting

[@fatimaezzahraejjebli1133]

Fitness and working out have been a struggle since hitting my thirties and ive been trying to get back to it after Ramadan. This video just came on time for me to get back to it. Thank you Joan❤

[@joanday2]

Hehe 🫶🏻🖤

[@Saraalahmed]

Everything is after Ramadan atp 😂

[@by.jyamae]

I think I've known that you have been friends for a while but I never knew you go waaaaay back! What a friendship!

[@lavendervvoo2970]

This video was super informative. I’m glad I watched.

[@ehengm]

Thank you Joan for another interesting episode🫶 Always enjoy watching, this one especially because of one of the best guests Matthew😎

[@douaayahyaoui6415]

Omg the OG besties this felt so light and refreshing !! Also i'm so excited for BM's album i know for sure it's gonna be fireee 🔥

[@nrtkh.6936]

I've just started working out this year! This video couldn't have come at a better time!

[@gindokki]

I love that you brought this topic to the series, because you've been such a huge motivator in me starting my own workout journey! Your past video made it super accessible and less intimidating for me to start, so very grateful for that. Loved the deep dive of working out here, and BM is the best guest!! It was great hearing from both of you and the whole just do it mindset = loved hearing it. Thank you for brightening up my week as always!! Much love to both and can't wait for Matthew's very risque album, super excited about it now hhaha 😘

[@mayumayu9966]

Love BM ❤ Uplifting us usual 🙌 Wish you all the best for your tour 🙌

[@gourisharma655]

Wait what I never knew they go that backkk damn alsooo Such a fun episode Joan & BM !

[@chloes5043]

Honestly, I agree with everything that was said. Now that I'm in my 30s, I've become healthier because I want to invest in myself and respect myself. I also regret not working in my 20s but oh well, making the most of it now 😄

[@joanday2]

Yess! Better late than never :) 🖤

[@Odoo9922]

Joan! Im 32 and i just started working out! I love it so much! Pilates and gym for me!!!❤❤❤

[@thedailyfro_]

I love this video! I'm part of the konnectd team and BM is so awesome to work with! We're so happy to host his tour ❤❤

[@rachaelerin1]

I didn’t start working out until I turned 36 lol I was so against the gym, so convinced that it wasn’t for me that it took having babies and trying to keep up with them to finally get me there. And I love it!! I go three times a week and trying to find time to go more. I feel stronger and more energetic than I ever have. I get such a rush of accomplishment when I learn new lifts or can complete a hard set. It’s incredible. It’s never too late!! Just get out there! I meet up with a trainer once every two months. They do an evaluation and give me a circuit. It’s a great way to stay motivated but keep it affordable. Stay strong yall ❤

[@jessica_gomes]

Ut makes sense you guys are friends, but why i haven't thought about this Great episode ❤

[@rafamagdi8187]

Can't wait to listen to bm album 🔥🔥🔥

[@jthomas8263]

Joan, KARD will never disband, this is not the end of KARD. KARD 4EVER!

[@ascene76]

So motivational! Decided to make little workout at home just now. 😁

[@abishaiforonda6529]

I started to go to the gym six months ago and I needed this pep talk! ^_^

[@tasbeehal-rabasi1727]

Exactly what I needed ! best collab thanks Joan ♥♥♥

[@joanday2]

Thanks for watching!!

[@anissalsabiela7529]

i still remember your vlog when you met BM!!! time flies

[@MyTaylordCloset]

Loved this, just turned 34 and have been struggling to stay consistent working out. But I also have a very physical job.

[@christina4465]

It is great to see BM from Kard! Of course, I am so happy that both of you kept your friendship till this day. Taking care of yourself is very important and this was very inspiring. Thank you, thank you to Joan and BM for sharing your journey! 😄🤩👍🏻🏃🏃‍♀️👏🏻🩷💕

[@joanday2]

Hehe thanks for watching 🖤

[@AyaNatsu05]

I'm 35 and I haven't been constant with working out but since last yeat I started yoga/pilates and it really felt different. I started doing it every morning since January and omg, never felt so motivated to never stop. I saw quicker changes that when i just use dumbbells or cardio. I really feel I can achieve more.

[@got7_crackheads-800]

perfect timing after I finished my workout! YES prioritizing health is first

[@joanday2]

Health is wealth!!

[@curiositykilledthekat]

favorite duo!!

[@Samantha-to5xz]

Love this topic with BM! Such a great topic with a great guest! I guess we are all the same where when we are twenties, we workout just to look good but on our thirties, we workout just to be healthy and to be sane. I guess its how it is no matter where we are 😅 another thing is I really love to see how you have this healthy friendship with alot of your guy friend, and it seems like most of your guy friend is protective and a gentleman too. I admire that! As always, truly great episode! Cant wait for the next episode already! Love ya! ❤

[@joanday2]

Hehe thanks for watching!! Take caree 🖤

[@AyaNatsu05]

It's always so good to see BM interacting with his long time friends! I hope you invite Somin sometime, I see you're good friends too ❤️

[@IndigoDetry]

honestly in terms of working out you shouldn’t rely on motivation because it comes and goes. (and thats why people aren’t consistent.) I think a lot of people mistake motivation and discipline for being similar the same thing. Like bm said there can be days, weeks, or even months where you don’t have motivation. You literally just have to force yourself to do it. what helped is seeing the things that I do for myself as a form of self-respect. being consistent on my word with working out or skin care or just taking care of myself in general is self-respect and how I treat myself well.💗

[@heyitsrosie]

Omg I remember that vlog when you met him when he was already in kard lol I agree, as you get older health is so important I didn't care about it when I was young but now that I got TMJ issues I was recommended to do strength training and also stretching and Pilates for posture so I'm doing both and I feel a lot better.

[@joanday2]

Omg same!! I use to struggle with TMJ, but I think Pilates did help 🫶🏻

[@charleseno3436]

omg! as soon as i saw this immediately clicked it to watch.. :)

[@ferbs54]

(1) Thanks, guys, for another interesting and informative episode. Matthew is a very well-spoken guest. (2) You're so right about the importance of starting a workout routine early. I wish I had started DECADES earlier than I did. (3) And yes, the importance of diet cannot be stated strongly enough. You truly ARE what you eat! (4) Just one complaint about this episode: I would've liked to have heard some of Matthew's stories about Joan in junior high! 😂😘

[@joanday2]

Thanks for watching!! 🖤

[@Lawrencedimayuga]

Bout to be fire pod when BM is on!

[@joanday2]

Hehe hope you enjoyed this one🖤

[@DocJoanaviMiranda0829]

I cannot believe how timely this video in the stage that I am in right now. I am starting to work out again, as always, its a cycle for me. But now I want to be consistent and the main reason is I agree, for health.

[@ambiguousradish2423]

I need Joan on Get Real at least one more time! Her episodes are some of my favorites

[@re.ni176]

I had the same type of conversation with friends (we all have 32 now) and came to the same conclusion...our goals with exercise now are not to be skinny, in fact I feel that I like myself more now that I'm more muscular hahah. At this age we really love to see the improvement we have doing it, the force that we have, the increment of cardiovascular capacity or the energy and happines that being activ gave to us Really enjoy this type of conversations, love your videos ❤❤

[@joanday2]

Ahh so true! Thanks for watching🖤

[@PinkRose0910]

Congrats on the long lasting friendship!

[@basaktoker6384]

Omg seeing BM in a youtuber’s channel that I follow was not on my list today. I sometimes forget celebrities also have a life and a past lol

[@user-ow3yp5rf5s]

I need more podcast, u with BM 😂

[@sampadabarde4872]

BM is a learned from the experience kinda gym bro.

[@geekdiggy]

watching this while leaning back in a chair and eating an ice cream sandwich💪 edit: while watching this, i felt inspired, so i stood up to eat the ice cream sandwich

[@joanday2]

😋😋😋

[@victoria-hh4op]

BM is truly so so handsome to me like 진짜 너무 잘 생겼어요!!!!! I hope he knows he is NOT lacking! 🫶🏼✨

[@todayis_Rachaa]

BESTIES IN 30 💙❤️

[@HaleHanci]

Can you do a morning/night skincare routine like the good old days?💜💚

[@joanday2]

Ahh I'll try to film for shorts/reels/tiktok content!

[@annboba]

this is somewhat specific, but as a fellow gym mouse, i appreciate BM using normal/regular language to describe his routine (e.g. around 6:00) instead of using typical gym slang, which is what i expected to hear. idk if it was intentional, but it makes him seem more approachable/down to earth yknow

[@joanday2]

He’s literally the nicest human being!!!

[@solodolo21831]

Bm saying he ain't good looking is crazy 😂

[@PinkRose0910]

I’m wondering where you found your long denim skirt?! Love it.

[@nupsy711]

This video gonna be my 30 minutes cardio on treadmill today

[@joanday2]

Yesssss

[@sheenamea]

Our daddy BM is in the house!

[@vanillashake3544]

Hi Joan, the sound for this video is the best so far 🤗

[@joanday2]

Finally fixed it!!!

[@user-sn9dk8zv6b]

I think i saw this man on dive studios!!!! I'm sure it's his voice but i forgot his name even though i watch them alot on KZbin especially when i wash the dishes

[@valrey5535]

Please bring back eddy to talk about skincare, makeup or life as a youtuber !! I think it will be fun to hear about how things changed over the years when you guys were in your 20s !!

[@ranyasabah6403]

Joan can you share your favorite skin treatment clinic in Korea?!!! I been following you for so long and 1000% trust your recommendations!!

[@joanday2]

I’ve been wanting to do an episode on procedures in my 30s! I’ll try to draft that one for this year 🫶🏻

[@aarontheabc]

💙💙💙

[@sarahdennisa2291]

thats so cooooool

[@killerstorm16]

Wow can’t believe you do Pilates 3 times a week. That’s goals!!!just curious do you do one on one sessions or group classes?

[@joanday2]

I'm trying to transition to 5 times a week!! And I do one on one sessions :)

[@todayis_Rachaa]

I have been working out now for almost 2years , 6 days/week using mostly KB + i'm learning new Animal/Primal flow movements + animal walk/crawl.. Now at my 34 yrs old , i only think about my future self , how to be more healthy + powerful.

[@todayis_Rachaa]

P.S : i used to workout before but not like those past 2 years. So , it is never too late to workout it and learn new things about your own body. Move more , workout better .

[@Imkatibu]

More on this series 🙏🫶

[@joanday2]

Coming soon🖤

[@vvnlee259]

You need to start a podcast!

[@Joyful_Irina]

Okay, okay, but what if you're not really up for being seen as you work out? What would be a good home routine? 🥺❤

[@dprbalallala]

20 years?!! it's crazy😧

[@chloe-tm7zj]

와 천계 40분 대단해요ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 저도 10분하고 웨이트하러 도망가는데 ㅠ

[@PinkRose0910]

I need water & breakfast before any activities. Do y’all eat before a workout? Or need to wait so long after eating to work out?

[@roziecams]

I usually have breakfast (a protein smoothie, eggs, any food that doesn't make me feel heavy) about an hour or two before working out. And water before, during, and after a workout. It does depend on the intensity and type of exercise that you're doing, though! I mainly do calisthenics and this works for me :)

[@abdullahbaguffah4898]

Good Luck to you

[@peachy__pg]

two of my favorites, i can’t believe you’ve known each other for so long i love that! 🫶 i struggle a lot with food sensitivity too, even besides my skin. maybe you could do a video on your go to home cooked meals, meal prep, or what/how you eat in a day/week?

[@joanday2]

I'll try to film those for shorts/reels/tiktok! 🖤

[@charliemetaverse]

BM is the EPITOME of Kpop idol look for guys? what is he talking about?lol his crazy modest

[@jenojaemin1730]

WHATTT! i didn't know they were childhood friends!

[@PinkRose0910]

Drinking too much is bad for your health. If you are waking up with a hangover that’s your body telling you to drink less alcohol and more water. Depending on the size of your body & genetics the amount you can handle is different. Look up recommended serving sizes for alcohol. The USDA has serving size recommendations. I’m sure Korea probably has their own standards. Being able to enjoy food in moderation is important. Overly restrictive diets aren’t healthy and can lead to eating disorders. I hope you both stay happy and healthy. You don’t have to just eat chicken & rice to be fit. Thanks for sharing your experiences. You can get tested for food allergies or lactose intolerance if having GI problems.

[@user-jh1nl2nj8f]

I know it’ll come eventually but Peniel spicy shin please

28:22 im not even 15 and im listening to all ts 😭😭

[@justrena]

I recently discovered your videos and thumbs up, I really like them. You seem like a very nice, warm-hearted person. But isn't it funny how different life can be for people of the same age? I'm going to be 32 in a month and fuck, that's a turn off. Not because I think "getting old" is bad, absolutely not, but because a lot of things are harder at this stage if the fundamentals aren't right. By that I mean family, friendships, work, surroundings - basically the pillars of life, right? In my case, ever since I was a child, it has felt like I was born into the wrong life. To this day, life feels lost. Funnily enough, I recently thought for the first time "this would be right, this would be the right place," yet that's not possible due to many factors. Middlefinger up, pls. I also cut off all my friendships and acquaintances about 9 years ago (oh shit, that sounds like a damn long time) because none of it felt genuine and grounded, nothing fitted. That hasn't changed to this day and honestly? Just having a friendship for the sake of having someone, yeah, no thanks. :D But it's tiring. You want to do something? You can only do it alone. Analyzing patterns of thought and situations, mental growth - it's all alone in your head with self-talk (although my mindset and how I observe things is what I like most about myself). It's so unhealthy for the psyche and has such a huge impact on life. Ironically, none of this is reflected in my social behavior, people always perceive me as outgoing, "cool" and laid back. We all know the good old saying "don't judge a book by its cover." :D What I'm trying to say is: I'm incredibly happy for anyone who has found the right people in their life with whom they can share memories and, above all, with whom they can talk. Believe me, I would die for a stimulating exchange where both sides feel safe and understood. It's not something to take for granted. With that being said, Joan, I wish you and your loved ones a wonderful life, keep up the good work. 😊

[@justrena]

hahahaha oh shit, sorry for the long text, didn't realize it while writing. :'D

[@cameliarosaluna5415]
