Not many KZfaqrs I feel like I need to take notes on. But this is one of them.

Your videos always encourage me to do random stuff to build random feats of strength. For the last 2 weeks I've been trying to balance my whole body weight on a door handle, using just my saggy testicles to clinch onto it.

As a long time ambidexterious individual, I can answer that question. Writing with your odd hand will mostly just improve your writing skill. However, doing so and brushing your teeth odd and intentionally opening doors and performing day to day tasks odd will train your ambi-braindedness. It will help you understand how to be ambidexterious. However, tasks that require fine motor skills will need to be trained both ways and the only way to improve those skills is to train them directly.

I gotta work my ass off just to be able to do the basic version of the exercises in each episode. This is the best channel.

I was gonna add that breathing out while punching tightens your core in case of a counter to the body

I've read a lot about Harry Houdini lately and he actually practiced foot dexterity which helped him in his escapes. His first trick was bending over backwards and picking up a pin with his teeth. He never slept more than four hours a night. He had an ice bath installed in his basement so that he could practice his water escapes - and came to prefer cold baths (decades before Wim Hof!). Dr. J.E. Rourke an anatomical expert said, "Houdini is the most remarkable man I ever examined. I have examined Sandow and most all the physical wonders of the country. But Houdini is in a class by himself." He reminds me of Bruce Lee because he was always exploring new things and trying to be the best that he could. My main source is The Secret Life of Houdini by Kalush and Sloman. I could go on and on. I'd love to see you do a video on him sometime especially his exercise routines if you can find anything.

The interesting thing about ambidexterity training is that forcing your left (or non-dominate side) to do what your right normally does not only improves the left side but also the right. Sort of an open secret among musicians. Have no idea if this applies to things like strength, but it does provide a window into how the brain works.

A Russian chick drawing manga with her feet... K...

For years and years ive looked out for someone like you, brilliant bro, im with you with everything, its amazing to finally find someone like me that i can relate to. Keep moving forward bro ✌

Well said buddy...when I'm training people I always say keep your chest out (to keep your back straight and engage the right muscles) and most importantly BREATH!!!

The brain puts limiters on our body's, mostly so we don't hurt ourselves like you stated in a video before. This same thing causes people having a seizure to spasm so hard they can bite off fingers, rip their own muscles and break their own bones with muscle force. This happens because the Brain isn't functioning right and limiters aren't working. Now that being said some Monks have been able through training mediate and heat themselves drying wet towels placed on them and be out in freezing weather for hours. This makes me think perhaps with the right training you could stop your Brain's limiters through effort if need be like unleash a adrenaline or etc. Maybe a combination of mental and physically conditioning this could be achieved. Sorry for the long comment, thanks for another insightful video.

Such a great channel. A real breath of fresh air for youtube to have someone like you with your diverse content. Keep up the great work mate.

Yay part 2! I have been binge watching you, Jaxblade and ThenX lately, and am currently riding a huge wave of motivation, getting me off my arse and back in shape. I love the direction your channel is heading. Grant is a great addition to the team, and I can't wait for more from him, also looking forward to the next Batman based workout. Keep up the excellent work, you have a bright future.

You are a master of the knowledge of the Human body and anatomy and body mechanics or mechanism

Another solid video! I’ve rewatched most of your videos way more times than I care to admit and always learn something new from them that I can apply to my training. Thanks for all the info and motivation!You’re the reason I get up early or stay up late to get my workout in and to try new things. Keep the vids coming :)

Bro.... You have the most unique training routines that I've ever seen. I don't just like it, I respect it because in my eyes it's very interesting and inspiring. Thank you for making this video for guys like me to learn about the many different aspects of training regimens.

Always an incredible video! I look forward to your videos all the time!

NICE! loving the old school, retro intro. Looking forward to your training session with Mark!

Thank you for your videos! I’m a normal guy from America, but my whole life I’ve always trained everything to be functional in everything. So it’s nice to see someone doing it and sharing it on a educational/elite level :)

Your videos are clever, inspiring and undeniably well prepared. You go to the point giving clear explanations. You take every topic as deep as you can. Finally a channel about holistic health and fitness worth following! Thank you for the hard work and keep up with that kind of video please.

Loved the X-MEN bit on the beggining hahah Thanks again for another very informational and interesting video, keep em' coming Bioneer

As soon as I saw you do that push up with feet off ground I Subbed

yes, thank you, so thankful I found your channel. @5:01 I felt every pebble as you took every step. An unforgettable moment for myself when I went to North Fork Falls with my friends and realized I never trained my feet and always wore shoes.

Part 2 was well worth the wait! Great video

yess! Technique looking much better dude great work :)

The video, your channel, and especially the ending wrap up explanation of how to intelligently begin, wonderfully said and explained! I sincerely appreciate your work, your approach, and the effort you into this, its really worth watching...and we the people salut you!!! You fantastic balance with combing a great trifecta of inspiration, education, and motivation. Really wonderfully done, and some appreciation from this humble viewer if nothing else.

really great content. I have to stop what I'm doing and actually sit and watch your vids without any distractions. I was also talking to my Aikido sensie (being an ex-SEAL) he truly, also loves watching your content. Keep up the great work.

A tip from a boxing trainer... bring your hands back as fast as you throw them. Must make a conscious effort in doing this. Good luck!

Nice post buddy - Great work!

I work overnight as a grocery stocker. We gotta stock fast and it involves a lot of rapid squatting lifting and cutting with a box cutter. I learned to use the cutter in my left hand to counteract the constant twisting in one direction for hours on hand.

More Gold my boy, more gold. Way underrated for good information. Stay learning Ladies & Gents

2:30 I've switched to barefoot running and I've never felt better. It's crazy how we've tried to make essential movements easier, like sports wear.

I had asthma as a kid and was taught how to belly breath very young. It's become completely second nature. The most valuable thing I've ever been taught.

Ur videos have gotten me back in shape thank u so much brother

After years of work injuries, finally healed and back to lifting. Trying something different, I'm following Herman Goerner's routine. The information regarding foot strength will absolutely help me. My garage is unheated when I'm not training so I'm picking up some moccasins. I've suffered on and off for years from plantar fasciitis, save when training martial arts. I'm hoping this improves the quality of my life and training. Thank you!

Easily my favorite youtuber.

I absolutely love your videos man💪!!

Thanks for all you do I am a first time subscriber Must say you are inspirational Please keep it going And congrats on the birth of your child They truly are a treasure and our future 😎

I love, love, love your videos because you have taught me so much about strength. You are a great teacher! Please also do a video on power building.

Two year with only vibrams. I love my new feet!!! Thank you for putting this out, you should be one of their "ambassadors", so should I.

Very good video. Thank you for this post!

youre videos are great, good job!

Great video, as always!

Breath in through your nose and out with your mouth using the same force that you're using to execute your exercise or hold. The synchronization is a key element that didn't get much attention during the video.

Awesome stuff, your channel is great keep on the good work

This channel is just awesome for motivation purposes!

Such an underrated channel that should have a million subscribers

I have an Idea (if you need one, I’m sure you’ve already got a lot) for untapped strength: Sight training - Peripheral vision, accuracy and more (I think it‘s important for general preparedness?)

Found your channel last week. Glad i did. Some interesting change of training here. I just started back in the gym after two years off. Had two cars rearended in one year. And since then my energy has suffered, and some minor depression. Been back in the game for three weeks now. And it feels good. Besides having to work around an unhappy knee. I think stretching will give some relief there.

In Karate you always train in bare feet try pulling your self across the room just using your toes!, Pull your big toe back when doing side kick, pull all your toes back when doing front kick, try to move all toes individually (very hard), In Sanchin Kata you spread the feet and grip the ground with the toes, stand on a curb or brick on just toes and drop your weight down.

Between this dude and Jeff Cavalier the amount of knowledge to be gained is over 9000!

Training with Arnis sticks is underrated way of training to be ambidextrous. It also works grip strength, and your reaction time.

Outstanding!

This channel is always so good. I'd like to start some of these neurological training methods...I had taught myself to write and draw with both hands at one point. I think I just have an easy time bridging both halves of my brain because it was fairly easy. I like to hike in sandals. I've noticed that my feet are far stronger and more flexible than others by doing so.

Best channel on YT

These videos are so interesting.

Fantastic video. Thank you

Can't wait for the routine

I love these videos you are really informed in biomechanics

Best. loving your videos. Big Ups!

tapping the Golgi, great training, thank you!

Love this video brother bioneer. I've been doing these exercises and hold dbs with fatgrip pros and have gained immense strength in kicking and jumping power and maintained it too and I'm in my late 40s. Smash that like button everyone. Another great one bioneer👍🦝

Great video

Amazing video man

Great content

Love your physical practice!

I was forced into training ambidexterity when I got into a car accident and had to work primarily with my other arm for a while. It's still kind of nice being able to give my right arm a break.

You get better every day!Sadly im injured,i cant train at the Moment...😢Bu great Video!!

Love the idea of pushing or pulling objects that do not move !

Freakin love it , this is the type of fitness I'm interested in

To answer your question at 8:55 of "Does training writing with your left hand only improve your dexterity in that task? or does it translate to other things?" Yes, training ambidexterity improves you through that one skill especially, but not exclusively. Those skills translate to others that you tap into. Also, the more often you train ambidexterity, the easier it is to engage ambidextrously in tasks you had never tried on the odd side. Here's an example from experience: I myself have been traininging my "extra sensory proprioception" in tossing items around my body as a contact juggler. Water bottles, car keys, chapstick, lighters, fruits and vegetables, wallet, whatever is in my hands I'll toss it with my left and right around to my left and right in various ways. Back to front, front to back, side to side, etc. I wanted to see if building my hand eye coordination and spatial distancing skills would improve anything else. And the answer was a resounding YES! MANY things that would normally fall from slipping, being knocked off balance, etc... within my vicinity are not only caught and never hit the ground but are caught by REFLEX, not by a cognitive decision making type logical process. Also, by improving balance through standing on either foot, my ability to glide when I walk instead of trudge has been such a welcome by product!

Very interesting I salute u man

Hi, will you consider writing a e book or training program that shows how you encompass all these different training types, nutrition, nootropic, medition, martial arts into a coherent weekly plan? Would love to Have an outline to follow . Thanks

The comment section on this channel is almost as great as the vids. It's genuinely the only channel I make a point of reading comments on, just to cheer me up 😁👍💪

Looking great👍🏻

Brilliant.

Subscribed! I always liked your channel cause its one of the only channels that make fitness interesting.. i can also recommend the Channel "Red Delta Project" its quite similar to yours but mostly based around Bodyweight training

Please make a video on knock knees fix or knee valgus fix. I am jothi das from India and I am not able to workout, walk or run properly. Please help me.

Bro you're f*cking jacked. Subscribed

Thanks for the video

Another classy display

Great video! How many times a week do you train? I'm interested, because there are lots of excercises I'd love to try but I don't find enough time when hitting the gym only 3 times a week and training no more than for an hour and a half or so...

Thank you! Great video! High five!

Just want to say you are great dude.🤙🏼👍🏻// viewer from Sweden 🇸🇪

which is the best time to serve a tea?which would be the relationship between main meals and tea drinking? I think it would be a good idea for a future video

I'm guessing the Lakes District, which I have seen. 💚 🧙‍♂️ 🇧🇦 I learnt to write with my left hand when the right was healing from a cut across three tendons and a nerve. 💚

I lift wearing Vibram Five-Finger shoes, and I've noticed that my feet have gotten thicker, especially the pad under the toes.

Awesome video, i love it when you talk about the old time strong men and the tricks they used to tap into their real strength. The only thing i don't think you've really covered is the technique of greasing the grove, i think that could help a lot of people to improve their strength and be partnered with some of the techniques mention in your video like overcoming isometrics. I'd also look at the Evil Russian and his programs like his push ups every hour and the "fighters pull up" programs. Anyway awesome video thanks, can't wait for more content.

As a kid I wrote with both hands, I switched around as I felt that moment. But when I was 8 my teacher forced me to choose a hand and only write with that hand. That day I felt like using my left hand, and I have been ever since. But I do pretty much everything else right handed.

the talk about connection of awareness and recruiting more muscle fibres makes me think of mindfulness have done video on that?

Where'd you get that bullworker / isometric device?

Love these strongman vids!...they’re my favorite most unique vids of yours...👌🏾👍🏾

Many interesting things in the real martial arts.

I've recently incorporated this new exercise in my routine and after seeing this video, I think it should build my straight arm strength. I take a small barbell usually empty or with 2.5 kg on each side and hold it straight in front of me with elbows locked out. My grip is with my palms facing the cieling and bar is around my neck's height. I usually do this after my bicep curls because it helps me get a good burn. How is this hold/ exercise for building straight arm strength? Should I do it as a stand alone exercise with a little more resistance rather than a light supplement to my other bicep exercises? I would love to know your views on this one.

I have a question for you, Would it be possible for you to make or find a playlist or playlists for specific work outs? Such as cardio, arm work, balance, concentration etc.?

Hey Bioneer, I’m just wondering, could you do a video on the training style of ancient Greeks/Spartans? I think that would be really cool.

Reflexology comes to mind re bare feet walking and most instruments use two hands, doing different things.

any vids with the hex bar. I load a 45 on each side and take a lap. What is your trap bar max deadlift?

Great video. I need to add that feet training with my calisthenics. I'm a cyclist and the one thing I dislike is how we have these ultra stiff shoes to get as much power and efficiency to the pedals. It's like a cast that takes your feet muscles out of the equation. I like it for the performance, but it's not good for my poor feet.

Does anyone remember which video he mentions training the same muscle group two days in a row, plus the name for this method?
