Plot twist 10% bodyfat is actually a place

I'd walk everywhere topless if I looked like Hercules too

I have rheumatoid arthritis and severe back injury and have been disabled for 5 years. Left leg was paralyzed. Lots of back infiltrations and cortisone. I lived in Belgium and worked hard for 30 years as an independent baker. I have been living in the countryside in France for 3 years now. I could hardly walk, go shopping and my household. I started walking every day with small steps and now to 5000 to 7000 steps a day and I have never felt so good mentally and physically. I now have a goal to get up every day and in the meantime have become a healthy addiction and I recommend it to everyone. In the meantime I hardly take any medication anymore and I eat very healthy and it feels so good. I have been doing the Wim Hof ​​method for 4 months now with breathing exercises and cold showers and my body and life have changed completely positively for which I am extremely grateful. Thank you for your positive contribution, for which I am very grateful. Namaste🙏💟

Spot on Mike. I recently started a job as a registered nurse. At work I log about 12k-15k steps per 12 hour shift. My nutrition and workouts have remained exactly the same. I’ve lost 7lbs in 3 months without changing anything but the new job. Walking works!

I actually walk 20k steps a day with a deficit and cardio 5x a week. Started my cut 4 months ago, lost 40 pounds and now around 10%. Went from fat to fit.

22 lbs down just walking and lifting. Went from 23-24% body fat to 16.5% looking forward to getting to 10%. 💪🏻

I've been strength training now 2 weeks straight mon- wed - fri and walking to the gym and back. After watching this I'm gonna start walking on the off days and keep sunday as a day off.

I've been walking now for two weeks, I forgot how to get back home lol.

Never been a fan of walking. And then lockdown hit! Now I love it!!! 🙌🏻 Great video bro 👍🏻

Mike Thurston---a shirt salesman's nightmare.

Been walking and avoiding public transport since my late teens. Explains why Ive managed to maintain my weight. Thanks for clearing this up 👍🏼

Walking has beat just about everything else that I’ve tried to lose fat.

I get motivated to change my dull life whenever I watch this guy, literally the definition of living the life. Good on ya mate.

Why do I feel like Mike is my best bud I’ve never met.

You can still walk on the spot when inside. Thats how I started my fitness journey during the first lockdown. Outdoors is better but no excuses. Still walking now - average 16k steps per day, everyday. Have now added jogging and slowly introducing skipping. Lifestyle goals.

Man, congrats to your shape. Awesome aesthetics, skin quality, vein dilatation, body fat. One of the finest I'd ever seen.

Your delivery and tone in your videos just encourages us more. Thanks Mike.

Appreciate you keeping it clean with the language appealing to all audiences young and old

Starting walking more and tracking my calories after watching this. Couple weeks in, I’m down from 246 to 232.6 pounds. Thanks, Uncle Mike!

i remember when I was about 15, I was fairly overweight (115kg) when I came back girls asking me how I was so fit.. so yeah, walking. I walked for about a year every single day for about 3 hours, sometimes even 6 to 7 hours and I loved it so much. thanks for this cool video:)

Wow just got this in my recommended feed. Just started working out, and this is exactly the motivation I need. Good and positive vibes man 🙏🙌

Love this! Been walking a lot since lockdown but this has just inspired me to go that step further! Cheers bro

Great video man. It definitely reinforced my beliefs. Been walking 6 kilometers everyday lately and already lost 17 pounds! More to come!

Been walking 20,000 steps a day and 3-4 weight training sessions a week for 2 months. Eating 3,100 calories and I've lost 15 lbs. It feels absolutely fantastic not to have cardio hinder my recovery and to be able to keep the calories so high. It does not even feel like I am dieting.

Finally, my favourite exercise. Someone popular is finally talking about it 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Great video Mike! Most people always underestimate walking to help cut body fat, due to the lockdown loads of members at my gym have now seen the difference! Love the content very well said! Keep inspiring!👍💪

So this was basically an infomercial about going shirtless wherever you are.

Thanks for putting these out. Really appreciate the content.

Mike what a legend, keep inspiring. 😀😀

Thanks for the motivation. I’m 65 and live in Penang, Malaysia. I have been trying to walk 10,000 steps a day since the government allowed us out to exercise about two months ago. I find that’s about 8km per day.

Absolutely love your content Mike. Thank you.

MIke, I appreciate how you made this information very simple to understand and easy to apply. I will start today. Thanks!

I started walking regularly at december, last year. My starting weight was 265 pounds. After 1-2 months I was walking 10 kilometers every day and after 4 months I lost 30 pounds. I think walking is one of the greatest "exercise" because it's maintainable even for a 265 pound fat guy as I was.

Burning calories benefits your healh. Being physically active improves your mood, relieves stress, builds muscles and reduces risk of chronic ... Love ❤️ watching your videos

Great advice : After going up to 83kg skinny-fat during lockdown, I started doing 7.5km walks every day. Took 70 minutes. Walking fast, at a pace where I would be out of breath if trying to hold a conversation. Keep pushing till the end of the walk. Dropped 0.5kg per week consistently till I hit 76kg (eg after losing 7kg in approx 3 months ). I did no other physical activity. Stopped eating bread was the only other change I made (and I didn't eat much bread to begin with). Even at a slow pace, say 2 steps per second, means 1000 steps takes 500 seconds so approximately 10 minutes. So 6000 steps in 1 hour, which is probably about 4.5km. If you really march it out (say 3 steps per second ), 1000 steps takes 350 seconds, so approximately 6 minutes. So 10,000 steps in 1 hour, which is probably about 7-7.5km. Definitely doable. If you go with a friend, don't chat : if you're walking hard enough, you won't have breath to do it. In non-lockdown life, you'll probably add another 7,000 steps just walking around doing normal things. So 15,000+ steps a day should be doable for everyone with 1 hour dedicated to a fast walk

"Some of us do it more than others" That sure is an understatement! And dang, you are a fine specimen to behold. What a great video! I can't say that I learned anything new specifically, but I was reminded of some things I may let fade into the background. Great advice about moving more vs eating less depending on the individual situation. In my case, I need to do both eat less and move more. The Pandemic(which apparently everyone just decided is over) really hurt my progress towards my ultimate form. I wish I had discovered your channel a year ago because you are naturally motivational, and quite knowledgeable. I know it's been a while since you posted this, but I just had to say, you rock man!

It for sure works, I pushed my daily average to 22k for 3 months and lost 10 kg in the process, for the first time getting below 12% bf and seeing my abs💪🙏

I walk for 70 minutes daily 5x weekly. I was 213lbs back on Oct and now I am 173lbs... Losing 1lb weekly and the most I enjoy is that I don't sacrifice food... 💪

Finally some great information on walking. I have been walking for over 10 years as my only cardio. Yes I walk a lot between 5 and 9 miles per day, but it is great because it’s easy on your joints, you don’t need a gym or expensive workout stuff. You just need a comfortable pair of shoes. Keeps me leaner but my strength training is most important. As we age we need to lift more frequently to build muscle mass and do less cardio.

For those watching don’t walk slow like him. Walk 3 miles per hour and if on a treadmill crank up the incline and you’ll burn more calories

Perfect physique, yet humble. Props.

I have been taking your advice without even knowing you had this advice to give, lol. I'm 34 and have been struggling my entire life with weight management, but this year things have come together for me to have a real understanding of how my body works and what I need to do to obtain my goals. Even though I have already been taking your advice (first time seeing any of your videos) I'm happy I found you confirming what I pieced together. It doesn't hurt that you're easy on the eyes, lol Thank you! 💯 34.2 lbs down since May BMI from 37 to 32.9 🤯 I feel great and finally, I'm beginning to see some of the "real me" that has been hiding under all this blubber, lol Here's to the journey! 🥂

Really really good advice. If you look at walking from a risk/benefit point of view it is very beneficial. Not many people injure themselves while walking, as compared to people running or doing sprints or HIIT.

Walking is time consuming but so is a healthy lifestyle of eating properly and training regularly. Your health is not an area for short cuts or quick fixes, the time and effort is worth it. Great simple tips as always Mike

I thought he was gonna say “the good thing abt walking is that everyone can do it unless you’re in a wheel chair.”

Thank you for the great content. Something as simple as walking each day for 45min - 1hr has helped me clear my mind from stress and has helped with loosing around 2 lbs each month consistently.

Walking has to be the most underrated form of torching calories.

Buddy this was the best end all of my fitness history ,I weigh train,I fast OMAD.I have good strength when I lift ,I’m 65 years old and now all I have to do is your walking routine daily ,Thank You Very Much

Nice video Mike. since 10/12/20 i've done 9 weeks lost 2 stone and another 3 too hit my target 15.5 stone. I have bad knees from the army so I've had to get used to walking and i now really enjoy it. 1900 calories a day doing about 3 mile walking is doing the trick for now :)

Great advice -, I get my steps in on a desk treadmill. Can close deals and walk 15k steps, game changer.

I like this video. Just plain good advice on the benefits of walking. I walk twice a week and when Mike said it has to be every single day, then I am going to do that. More power to you Mike and your channel. God bless!

Very well explained! Thank you

Your physique is amazing, hard work and dedication there...

Oh yeah. Moving is going to be better than sitting for sure. Walking is much easier on my older joints. Thanks Mike

Thanks for the great advice! Keeping it very positive and not too complicated is a great way to encourage others to start a 10,000+ step per day journey. I also like your very sensible dieting advice.

Hair looks fabulous, Mr. Mike Thurston. Looking smart. Happy holidays.

I'm lucky to live in a very hilly area and, during the pandemic, have been walking 5-10 miles a day. It's saved me since I couldn't go to the gym.

I've put on so much weight over lock-down. But my diet is basically the same. I usually walk everywhere and I'm amazed at the effect it was having now that I've stropped.

Fantastic personal trainer. Very knowledgeable & educational. Great videos.

Currently obese recovering from sever binge eating disorder aaand high bp 5'9 310 lbs videos like these helping me out along fr I walked a hour on the treadmill going between 3-5 mph the hole time and burned 657 calories and actuay lost 2 lbs of fat from eating my intake and burning that 600 and change feels good to be making progress.

Good body, nicely proportioned. You know what you are doing. Thanks for the encouragement, Mike.

He protecc He attacc but most importantly.... *he walks his way to 10% body fat*

Very direct and to the point. I love it. Subscribing

I've started Hiking after ending my triathlon run. I love it. Run the flats and downhills and walk the uphills and jog every few steps.

A massively underrated and overlooked way of burning calories easily! Love this Mike!

I’ve been on a fasting plan for the last 36 days. I walk 7-8 miles a day and I have shed 22lbs so far. Still a way to go for me but I put the earbuds in, turn on some music and go for it. So far so good.

My dear friend your video is absolutely great and also motivating. I congratulate you. I started walking two weeks ago doing 18,000 steps every day, now what I want is to mark my abdomen.

Great video and some goal searching for me to ponder. You look great. Right balance. I have a similar frame as you and I’m a few months behind so this is pretty inspiring.

Great advice

Literally such facts! Walking 10k steps a day for a 180 lb male will scientifically burn upto an extra pound a week which is insane! Walking is the best form of cardio cuz it doesn't spike your appetite, unlike all other types of cardio (which actually makes dieting much harder!)

Very sensible information. Need to subscribe to you man.

One of the best, most informative fitness channels on KZfaq. "Always listen to success."

If I had that body I would walk shirtless everywhere

I used to walk everywhere. Especially in summer. I used to see a girl 6 mile away. Walk there, spend the night and walk home. Now I have a hip replacement, I have to use a bike. I've became a bike wanker

i clicked on this because i've been going through a similar experience of my own... I'm going to start doing this starting right now i think this might be the key to taking my fitness to the next level.

Great video! Well made. It’s quite informative and useful. 👍

When quarantine first started in the States, I was putting in 3, sometimes 4 hours a day of walking. Bananas I know, but you are right, you get shredded after a while, I don't hate myself like I do when I run, and I can enjoy my music

Secret: Start with 10.5% Bodyfat and go down from there!

Well easy for you to say, you’re on something that makes most fitness related things easier.

Thank you, Mike!

Maths 101 with Pythagirthorus

Dude, you have the most insane build I've ever seen 😳

I always tell people who don’t know where to start or what to do and tell people just start walking. Walk with a weighted vest on or 1-2 lbs weights. I’ve done walking challenges to encourage people to start exercising. You don’t need much. I love walking! Thanks for the video handsome 😊

It's great doing it while lockdown is on thanks for you're tips

I feel like crap right now!! I’m going to go for a walk. I sit all day at work and then at home uhh! Thanks ❤️

My wife always comes over and snuggles up to me too watch his videos 🤷‍♂️ 😄 must just be interested in the subject I guess.

Thanks, Mike. Good info.

thanks for the very good advice..

I’m 53 now and find long walks 10 plus miles kill my hips. I changed to short bursts of HIT max 30 minutes, this keeps the fat off and allows me to keep decent muscle mass. These videos are relaxing and good honest advice, diet is so important, there is no quick fix, hard work, discipline and enjoy it, if you don’t enjoy the lifestyle dont do it.

I started walking daily about 3 weeks ago and already down almost 10lbs. I found a park with a trail and now I’m addicted. I love walking, relieves stress also.

Great Video! Thanks!

Thank you brother Lovely advice

3:08 when I want to laugh ill come back and look at your boxing technique 🤣

This is true. I speed walk 5k anywhere between 3-4times a week in between other cardio + strength training. It is so worth it! You just get tighter!

Great info. Great body. I'm working on it. Thank you.

Where did your shoot that video? Looks amazing!

Walking is definitely underrated! I just posted my 3 month transformation video and all I did was eat less and walk at least 5 miles a day. Lost over 30 pounds in 3 months :) Journey’s far from over, but walking has definitely proven to be one of the most effective ways to lose weight!

As a wise man once said, "Walk HARDER than last time!!!!"

No promo no bullshit, just talking facts. Love u mike

Just started walking again. This video couldn't of come at a better time.
