[@banksiaspinulosa7442]

This is what I feel when I practice yoga. Moving through different fascia lines and building an all round strength to incorporate into my climbing. I believe fascia is the secret weapon of our human form and stoked that I've found someone who has felt the same physical phenomenon. I imagine it as energy bending throughout my body in order to travel along the fascial lines. The imagination is a gift for using fascia too.

[@djsuter4410]

Internal martial arts are a good place to look for fascia training. If you can get past the esoteric concepts, you may find some gems there. Ellis Amdur dives into some of this in his excellent book, Hidden in Plain Sight.

[@georgegardner7091]

“What are you doing step-bioneer?” “GRIP TRAINING”

[@michaelkjar]

I just finished this book and Adam’s ideas are a welcome framework for fitness as I age (I’m 63). Like many people, lockdown has kept me away from the gym for a year and I have struggled to come up with engaging alternatives. I had started working on rings in my front yard, farmer walking around the neighborhood, etc., so it was encouraging to see that others, like Adam, validate this approach. I’m excited to try more of this stuff and may never bother with a gym membership again. BTW, I have the Kindle version which I like because the book is also good for looking things up-I always have it on my phone. So glad I discovered this channel recently. One more thing, I was a scrawny gay kid in 1960s Texas and shied away from any sort of sport. I remember reading Jack LaLanne’s book and watching him on TV, so I was delighted to find him mentioned in this book. LaLanne probably nudged me into a lifetime pursuit of fitness--a lot of his stuff you could do at home and I did. Full circle.

[@TheBioneer]

Thanks for the great feedback and really glad you enjoyed the book! 😁🔥 LaLanne was a legend - definitely planning on making some content around him in future!

[@aarhayes]

There's some deep stuff in this idea of functionality--maybe off in left field, two of my favorite philosophy texts are Bergson's "Creative Evolution" and Merleau-Ponty's "Phenomenology of Perception" which try to go at this unified embodied movement thing in different ways, arguing how unreflective knowledge structures themselves lead us toward analysis and segmentation, which is opposite from our foundational living activity. In some ways I wonder if the limited understanding of fascia was partly research bias for isolating individual biomechanical movements rather than whole-body perspectives.

[@TheBioneer]

Awesome insight and perspective! I will be adding those books to my reading list, thank you :-)

[@SchuyFit]

You look so proud holding this book, like a dad holding his newborn son. Well-deserved, congratulations! Great excerpt as well.

[@PcCAvioN]

I feel that I've come to understand that the fascia is incredibly important in singing. A classic singing tip is to hold your entire body slightly taught while maintaining flexibility. Rather than focusing on certain muscles, you focus on your entire body at once. Not to mention that fascia can form tight areas of its own around muscles; you can have a loose muscle but a tight bit of fascia which must be broken down.

[@maxmatassov4045]

I just bought your book. I am very excited and looking forward to my new training. Thanks for this!

[@camiloandrespachongomez5965]

This concept is very new for me, but it makes perfect sense when you explain it. Thank you for your work. I've been learning quite a lot about my body thanks to your videos and also have increased and improved in my training so much as to think that I wasn't even training before because I was missing important details and possibilities about my own movement. Thank you again. People like you make the world a better place.

[@tmmnago2722]

Okay, now do it for the rest of the book and publish an audiobook from it.

The Bioneer, could you possibly make a video for the most realistically beneficial training for militaries'? Before joining, good knowledge to have.

[@SenseiEpu]

Amazing. This is basically what I learned about fascia when training forassage therapy. We even had a tensegrity model showing how movement or change in one part of the body affects everything else. SOLD! I'm buying your book.

[@garrenosborne9623]

Great to hear fascia getting some enthusiasm, I was introduced to it through Mantak Chia's 'Iron Shirt Chi Kung' who has western physiology training & internal Kung' Fu mastery, he sees the fascia as key to body / energy distribution & unification, best cross cultural explanation of the potential role of fascia I've come across, his recommended stance training is simple way of getting experiential evidence there's yet more going on with our bodies than we think. Fascia definitely needs more research, while being open-minded to older body traditions that might have discoverd some amazing correlations & then subsequently been mythologised &/or miss-understood, & now dismissed. I'd be interested in your opinion if you ever try Mantak' stance training.

[@Cynane27]

My favourite fitness information source

[@Poonkaans]

Great vid fella! And great to hear your book is doing well :) You mention that people aren’t sure how to train the fascia - your description of fascia actually sounds one for one the same as Chinese descriptions in Daoist Qigong as the “Huang”. I highly recommend taking a gander at Damo Mitchell’s book ‘Comprehensive Guide to Daoist Nei Gong’. Even if it’s not your cup of tea, how he describes the building of Qi to Huang (fascia it seems to me) to muscle, is very interesting - the practices of Shaolin monks is the same really (and they are all kinds of fit!) - ref. 8 Brocades, Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic etc. Or check out Shaolin Temple Europe’s channel with master Shi Heng Yi Amazing stuff and thanks for the hard work! :)

[@sebastianstraubel8852]

Got your book yesterday, started reading today. With gyms closed (again) I'm switching to functional training. Although I really do miss the rowing machine, I've already gotten used to my kettlebell, bands, push up bar and rope. Thanks for all the work, Adam!

still reading the book, about halfway through, amazing information in it if anybody is still on the fence, literally doing a 30-day challenge right now I designed based on his advice about concentric only training, 165 concentric only pullups a day to get 5000 in a month, 10 days in and my max pullups have increased from 10 to 13 which is much faster progress than I've ever made before, totally recommend this book, also if you buy it write a good review on amazon to help my mans out

I experienced first hand how functional farm labour was, when I left the farm to study at university and only did traditional gym exercise. Powerlifting doesn't create the same functional strength. I could squat 2x bodyweight, yet I lost my strength to carry sacks of animal feed across fields.

[@wahoomankiller1472]

What you referred to as "Farmers Strength " would be what is referred to as "ButtAss Strong" round my parts. When I first started lifting, much bigger guys were saying this to me. Years later I've grown in size by training but Strength has never been an concern in lifting. Growing up doing chores around our farm was always complete body exhausting work. Enjoy your videos & diverse thought approaches to training.

[@carlitomoore]

I think you've just created a new medium: Videobooks. That's the thing about training books in general; they might be great (and I bet yours is fascinating based on this) but it's hard to visualise. Imagine a 3-hour video series that is timestamped by chapter, and a companion book. That way you can read on your commute or in bed etc. and when it comes to trying it you can watch the video to know you are doing it right.

[@jashardwallington]

Thats a interesting idea

[@TheBioneer]

Thanks! I’ve thought this you know! Often I end up listening to anything over KZbin when I should really be listening to an audiobook and learning. The music and visuals make all the difference to engagement if you’re tired. I wish Audible had music at the very least!

I made a DIY HAIRCUTS KZbin playlist for anyone interested in keeping their tresses short & shaped the way they like it. Includes cutting tutorials for both men & women. There’s a little bit of a learning curve, but it’s not like anyone’s gonna see you anytime soon, right? 😉 Ideal time to practice! 👍 Supplies are cheap. Scissors, comb, clippers, cape (or garbage bag), and I find it useful to have a makeup face brush to remove those short stubbly cut hairs. Hand mirror & wall mirror (like the one you probably already have in your bathroom), as well. If you’re not confident or comfortable cutting your own hair, have someone in your household who likes working w/ their hands to watch the tutorials, and have THEM give you a haircut.
