Ironically even tho Goku inspired me I def trained more like Vegeta when I was younger cause I was insecure in myself & the felt the need to overcompensate to show I wasn’t weak which led to many unnecessary ego injuries & issues , but have thankfully become a Goku after getting my mental health improved & focus primarily on improving myself to live a strong healthy active life & enjoy it

That Vegeta fitness youtuber speech was pretty epic.

not a bad Vegeta impression, "are you proud of me now mummy" that killed me XD

Whoever did the voice for vegeta needs a raise

The Vegeta voiceover 😂 just perfect - especially ending it with “mummy”😂😂

6:14 also this was so hype and hilarious. Amazing delivery. XD

DBZ and Sonic are the two things that have kept me motivated for the past four years

1:45 it’s true! Only till recently when Vegeta started to adopt a training modality closer to goku did he start progressing!

Poor Yamcha! Nice video! In my kettlebell sport journey I've trained like Goku and Vegeta, and other times been more stoic. After some tougher weeks on 24s I'm embracing a mindset of positivity and fun, no matter the physical and mental demand. Handstands and video games can also trigger different mindsets and emotions. 😊

I'm more like Cell, I just consume other gym-goers for my own strength

DBZ is a cross-cultural phenomenon as well; inspiring bodybuilders as well as martial artists. In training I would say I'm Goku on my best days, and Vegeta on my worst. I am currently going for 100% achievements in Skyrim, since I have put so much time into it I want to say goodbye to it in a rewarding way. Then move onto the next thing! I will be doing the same in the spring as well with my training; finding a goal to achieve

As a long time DB fan, this was really inspirational and eye-opening. I now know I need to look for enjoyment in everyday things.

Thank you for making me a straight up THREAT to my work computer setup. Had your video alt screened, was taking a drink, and nearly spit take bukkaked my keyboard when you did the "are you proud of me now mummy". Now I've got hot coffee in my nose, an unpleasantly moist work station, and a very awkward conversation with my IT guy to look forward to.

Haha Mummy is proud of you Vegeta 😆& yes even proud of you running backwards through Sonic R 🌀I guess i more of a Goku could say even Gohan. Love this video bro keep up the great work 💪🏻🦸🏻‍♂️

I never really got into Dragonball, so I’m not overly familiar with the characters, but going by the descriptions you gave, I think I’m definitely more of a Goku. I definitely have moments where ego gets in the way and I’m trying to keep up with another guy in the gym, like Vegeta, but for the most part I see the gym as a playground. I don’t have a specific goal or program in there, I’m just there to have fun. If I come out drenched with sweat or gasping for air, I’ve got my money’s worth. For me, running is where discipline comes in. I’m not built for it, I hate it while I’m doing it, and I’m always thinking about numbers; longer distances, faster kilometres. I think it is more an exercise in mental toughness than anything else. Those two aspects really form the yin and yang of my fitness routine.

What a fantastic video. I was expecting a much more silly video looking at the topic, but you really surprised me with this philosophical take. While I don't think being a 'Vegeta' is necessarily bad, I do agree with you that being a 'Goku' is much cooler, enjoyable, and productive. If for you training is a grind, you'll never defeat someone for whom training is a joy.

This was extremely inspiring. Very helpful and opened my eyes to some things i’ve been having trouble with. I can see i’m a Goku btw.

I train like Vegeta because I do not use PEDs like kaioken. I would also argue that Vegeta's motivation has a lot to do with him being old enough to remember being enslaved by Frieza, seeing his father the king of saiyans being literally placed under the boot of Frieza, and wanting to never be in that situation again, plus he does train for personal pride which is fine and also what Goku does. Goku is the idiot who trains for fun while also letting Frieza live after having killed the planet and his friends, then gave Perfect Cell a senzu bean before he sent his mainly pacifist son to fight the battle for him. They have different personalities, but Vegeta is the more noble of the two, imo. Also thinking about it, Vegeta is about 5 years older than Goku, but he grew up enslaved by Frieza. He did not have the luxury of freely training like mad to try to overcome Frieza or he would certainly have been killed. Goku is younger and had access to superior training environments and teachers at an earlier age and for longer than Vegeta, yet Vegeta still more or less keeps up. In later parts, Vegeta is highly protective of his wife and kid. He grows from an angry young survivor bent on revenge for his people into a bonafide protector with a much more noble and relatable reason for training than Goku to me. Vegeta is the more interesting and inspiring character, imo. Team Vegeta all day.

My favorite quote from Baki, “Someone who works hard will never beat someone who enjoys himself.”

5:55 was perfect 😂

"Push-ups, sit-ups, and plenty of juice!"

I am in a boxing Gym. I Like to Help other to become brave and stronger. To train with Friends makes a Lot of fun.

When are you going to do the instant transmission tutorial?

Sonic R was my favorite game growing up! I used Tails Doll and Metal Knuckles all the time when I unlocked them!

I grew up fat and unmotivated… thankfully I had toonami to show me the Ultimate Physique! Many years later I like to think I’ve achieved the physical form of a Sayjin ✊with the help of your vids of course brotha Keep up the Fantastic work

Absolutely loving the higher quality and consistency. Keep it up Adam!

Incredible Vegeta impression

Love your work. Would also like to hear your thoughts on martial arts physique vs your functional body as in just overall jack of all tade physique. As you know one can be a master runner, a swimmer or a climber or only jack of all trades. A martial artists must work on his specific twitch muscle. Not that he can't work on all his physique but again specificity conflicts with perfection in all dimensions. Would love your thoughts on this topic.

Your Vegeta impression was spot on! Im most decidedly a Piccolo btw.

I feel like you could break down most of the main characters and their respective training reasons/drives. Goku - embraces an intrinsic passion for strength and proclivity for light-hearted combat, though strives to be the best there is and finds encouragement and inspiration in the success of others Vegeta - his ego fuels him and indignation from inferiority compels him; he brandishes the pride in his strength and ability to flaunt his superior power around others Piccolo - stoic and dutiful, he trains because he knows that his duty relies on his strength Krillin - enjoys being strong and fast and when he was younger he relished the competition between friends, finding that through gaining strength on the outside, he also gained strength on the inside Tien - power flows naturally through his veins and a life of training is really the only way he knows how to live; he once strove to be the strongest on the planet, but now trains to be the strongest version of himself Yamcha - chases an external strength to combat an inner weakness, he once believed that this was the path to find success in love, but ultimately finds a pride and self-satisfaction through training and power Gohan - mostly trains because his dad makes him (first Piccolo, then Goku) Future Trunks - understands a more rounded purpose in training; while the general asthetic of a chiseled frame is nice, with might also comes the ability to protect those around you and also provides an inner discipline and path to greater character This is my take on the cast, at least. This was a really fun thought exercise that I'd never really considered before.

Very strong right cross. You'd benefit from less bag work and more flowing shadow boxing tho. Your power is already maxed out, work the flow and you'll look much better. Great way to do HIIT too.

“Maybe you’re a Yamcha”😂 that side eye lol

Awesome video, Bioneer. Hilarious, honest, and covers a great topic. Keep at it, sir. Your show is one of a kind.

Definitely a vegeta, but vegeta has progressed as a character in dragon ball supee. He's found his own path now. I feel that it took me a long time for me to find a path. Constantly evolving and adapting.

That Vegeta monologue was chefs kiss

Okay but that Vegeta impression was actually really good

Love this channel. Been following for years and the content is always great

I always trained like Homer Simpson, now i struggle to move. I want to thank you for your videos, they make me want to get out of my chair and do stuff. I have setup a daily stretch and movement routine that is easy enough, but can build me up to some more demanding exercises you do.

Train like Goku, compete like Vegeta!

That Vegeta impression was amazing 😂

Love the Vegeta impression

You're an inspiration my dude. I really appreciate you and your mentality!

I’m a piccolo style on the days I don’t feel like training (like cardio/leg or core days) because I’m not as hardcore as vegeta, but I’m usually more of a goku on the chest, back, and arm days.

Vegeta? The dried vegetable and spice mix that makes every meal taste better?

This video couldn't have come at a better time. Thank you 😊

I'm a Piccolo. Programming and research is probably the most fun part of the process for me. I need to be more like Goku though because I sometimes spend more time planning than actually putting in the work.

Great video! The vegeta impression was amazing.

Great video and such an important message. Thank you so much for sharing your drive and how your motivation sounds from your side. In many training methods they use an 80+20% motivation which is also great for other areas. Like aiming to be 80% Goku, but still put in the grind. Which is also what Goku does. When we learn to trust our motivation and aversion then we can learn to build our lives fluidly into what works for us. Such a great motivation. Thank you for sharing!

For the first time in my KZfaq life, the sponsored ad is something I'm interested in. Looking into magic spoon cereal 😅

The virtua fighter inspired intro 💪🏿

Awesome Vegeta speech! 😂🤌

Loved the video. Sort of psychological interpretation based on Dragon Ball. Absolutely genius. Well done. Thanks.

Imagine you are training to become piccolo and not nome of the sayians. Piccolo is underrated as a character and as a mentor too.

Why not mix the best of both and have Vegitto type of training?

Fastest time in Sonic R? Good job😂👍

I really appreciate you doing an Ocean dub impression of Vegeta lmao

I am a Vegeta type in training, sometimes I need to go down to hell in my training to break my confort zone and go beyond my own limits, it is not a all year round punishment but sometimes in the year I need to go full Vegeta mode to prove myself I can, more than a physical improvement is a mental test

Love the intro.

hey man, loved this video, also since I started training thanks to dragon ball too! I think it could be interesting to take this further with a video that can help people peronalize their training programs so they can enjoy training more. I am following the protean performance currently but I was already trying to change some exercises that i find boring or to get some different ways to train for when I dont have time or the possibility to train following the program. anywaya this is just an idea, great job as always!

Great video brother❤

I train to be like *Kakarot* Always pushing the limit. Just wish at 34 I had some senzu beans 🫘 ngl 😂

For me there is a mayor difference between the ones who like technically difficult things or not, because if you like the hard skill demanding things all becomes easy to progress and enjoyable.

This is the Turtle Hermit way!

The Vegeta voice was shockingly spot on.

I don't watch dragon ball, but for me uncle iroh jail workout from atla series is pretty awesome.

Could you make a short showcasing the part in this video where you do the Vegeta Impression? I need to put it in my "daily morning motivation" Playlist😂 really nailed that man!

Watched your weighted vest video only used it for 2 hrs for my past 2 work outs and went from 5 to 8 pullups reps and faster and easier than before.. #gokutraining

This is not a nerdy topic. This is THE topic! We need more of this! This is actually really motivational, since we pretty much all idolize an anime character and dream of being like him. I loved the part of effortless training. Indeed, if we can find how to make it become like a game progress is done without even realizing it. Maybe without even pursuing it. I am a Goku type and I would like to hear you saying more on this, like Gohan type!

I love this intro so much, ITS SO COOL

You are the greatest fitness youtuber in the universe! We're all proud of you Adam👊

Perfect time for this video, I've just finished re-watching the entire Freezer saga, 15 years after watching it for the first time as a kid!

I'm a bit older so for me it was the older Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat games that inspired me a ton to train. Also all the really old Hong Kong Kung Fu Theater flicks that were on TV on Saturday afternoons in the 80s.

"Are you proud of me now, .... mommy?" 😂 Golden

finally...someone is asking the important question!

This is something that seems obvious but surprisingly enough isn't most times. I know I myself optimize my life for enjoyment which admittedly does make some things quite hard but I found I am better able to stick to working out when doing exercises that I actually enjoy doing. I find bodyweight exercises to be more fun than weighted exercises but even still there are certain weighted exercises that I do enjoy more than others. Theres multiple different ways to work whatever muscle group you want to work or train but if you don't enjoy whatever exercise you're doing to work that muscle then you're never going to want to train that muscle because the exercise itself isn't enjoyable. That's why it's good to experiment with trying new exercises which is honestly one of the reasons I like watching these videos is cuz you usually have exercises that I've never heard of before or never seen and I mean I'll give it a shot it might just turn out to be my favorite.

i more of a Buu guy myself XD

HiLARious! I agree and may try to grow forearms outside with trees a bit instead of wrist curling, etc.. It's relaxing looking up through the branches to the sky and the like.

hell i would never visit the gym again if i was like vegeta (just like i don't show up at work), you've got to enjoy the journey

Amazing content as always brother, i have a quesiton i just bought your ebook and its fantastic but as per training program can i use your push pull legs and mobility and after in the same week push pull legs (powerbuilding style)? Is there any overtraining problem or is it okay? I’ll be glad if you reply

One of the great debates of our time. 😉🖖🏻

Bro that Vegeta impression sounds like TFS Goku doing a Vegeta impression 😂

I am a Goku type, I love being inspired over feeling the need to compare and compete with others to prove myself. I find progression enjoyable when I can involve 'play' and tend not to struggle with going for goals when I know the results are beneficial. Would love to train with a Piccolo

That intro is badass

as a proud fan of the channel, i feel a missed opportunity with so many badass vegeta images but i respect the collection don’t get me wrong

I haven't watched that show since the early 2000s. I am glad it's getting popular again but I avoid following the herd so I guess I'm out of experience when it comes to remembering training methods so please, please enlighten me

I agree with you about the misconception of hard work. People say to "work hard" to succeed, but they forget about fortune. If you are just "working hard" and seeing no results, try working less. Accomplishment also requires quality rest. In other words, balance (as you displayed while on your hands) is key.

I'm some mix of Piccolo and Goku. I enjoy training, but if I commit to a training block I can usually stick to it regardless of other factors. That Vegeta voice over was epic too btw

It's funny because I approached my workouts at the gym and my martial arts training as a combination of Goku and Vegeta. The Goku in me doesn't need to motivate myself to hit the gym or dojo. I just love the pump of lifting, calisthenics, hitting the bag, practicing kata and sparring. The Vegeta in me comes out when it's kicking and stretching. I can't kick high and I have to grind and push myself to stretching more. Which is frustrating since I'm Kyokushin Karateka and people throw head kicks with ease. That's the process I don't enjoy and rarely see the results.

Bioneer power level is over 9000!!!!!

Something I’m trying to learn also but every time you shoot a jab try and move your head off line to right and when you shoot your back hand move the left just get used to moving it off line so if you ever have to throw a 1-2 you’re less likely to get counter chinned etc

Interestingly, enough I did a lot of flak for being a Goku type trainer. Like win lose or draw I like training is often taken as "oh so you like to lose"

Like goku in the sense that i enjoy it, but like veggie in the sense of training hard as i can without getting the results i want. Ironically cause im tall

I used to be more driven like Vegeta, maybe a decade or so ago, I've gradually become more and more like Goku (in the sense that you're framing them for this video). However, I think there is an optimal advantage to having both play driven workouts with emphasis on the experience and boring grind workouts which require discipline.... each will trian your body and mind in different ways... we need to be able to be present and enjoy the moment, find the fun in life, but also we need to be able to think ahead and be able to do the things we don't wanna do.... I wanna ideally have that goku mentality for the majority of my training, but each week have one or 2 workouts that are more Vegeta or even Goggins (but not as extreme where it leads to injureis, just repetitive and hard where it becomes an internal battle of will, cuz winning that battle keeos you "fit" for other things you wanna put off in life).

Please bioneer do a video on fast twitch muscle fibers type 2a and their potential as both strength but also endurance and stamina fibers.

what is this 2018? Missed these kind of videos

It's the same for so many things. Quitting smoking, it's much better to be a Goku than a Vageta for the same reason, running out of willpower. If you can convince yourself that smoking is the cause of all of your cravings, which it literally is, and really internalize that, you can make yourself not *want* to smoke. Then you don't have to spend all of your limited willpower on constantly holding yourself accountable, each craving can be a reminder of the progress you've made. Well, if anyone is trying to quite I recommend Alan Carr's the easy way which basically just goes over all of the terrible ways smoking affects you in order to help you make this mental shift, but it's the same for weight training. Finding what motivates you and focus on that, rather than forcing yourself, definitely works better for me.

"What do they have that I don't?" He says with abs as TFS Frieza said"Oh my God, you could grind meat on those"

Hahaha that Vegeta bit was amazing!
