This is a follow up to last year's video on finding friends. I don't claim to be a "dating expert" - do those exist? However, these are things I do wish I knew when I was single. If they can help you, that's great!

I talk a little bit about what I *personally* want from my life and career.  I want to protect and provide for my family and loved ones. I want that possibly more than anything else in the world.  But I also want to give to others and help them freely.  So while providing for my family often involves material goods, I never want to do this through taking from others.  I want to...

I chat with Adam about his "Superfunctional Training" approach and what he thinks can be added to modern training! https://www.thebioneer.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIh_TPYPqjJuS_-nOfAIlfg

Learning to forgive others has been one of the most powerful skills for my happiness, success, and mental health. I used to think it was bogus, but a MAJOR turning point for me was learning that forgiveness wasn't necessarily to help others, but to help ourselves. I talk about 2 stories where I was wronged. One was an inconsequential story back when I was in college, and another was a very serious...

I get asked a lot about how to deal with loneliness. Unfortunately, like many others, there were times in my life when I felt lonely, deserted, and isolated.    Here are my thoughts on dealing with loneliness.   I mention in the video that it's probably not necessarily our fault if we're lonely. The way our society is constructed has us further apart than we've been in the...

Here's how to build an audience on social media! An "audience" is just the people willing to listen when you talk. Here's a summary of the video: 1.) Everyone that does business online should have an audience.  a.) Even if you don't want to be a content creator, building an audience will increase brand awareness and customer loyalty. b.) Turning your audience into a community will increase th...

I talk with the wonderful SarahBethYoga about the benefits of yoga, the origins behind the practice, and how  anybody can incorporate the practice into their lives if they choose. I had a lot of fun talking with Sarah and learned a lot. I hope this  podcast can intrigue some people who know of yoga but would like to  learn more about it.

This is the first episode in a series where I answer your questions!  In this first episode–where the sun sets on me, AGAIN—I discuss my general approach to weight loss and weight gain.  These are both obviously HUGE topics that require several videos of their own, but I do my best to summarize.  Comment more questions for me to answer next week! If you see your question, please upv...

In this FAQ episode, I discuss junk food, intermittent fasting, bodyweight basics, cardio, and supplements!   Legal Notice: Consult a physician before beginning any exercise program. This video does not replace a doctor's visit or physical therapy program.

In this video I discuss what how to breed long-term motivation to pursue your goals, fitness or otherwise.  I also give my two cents on getting a girlfriend.  I'll come back and write a longer description later. This video is already 3 days late.  Text me more questions: +1 (479) 309-8193    Legal Notice: Consult a physician before beginning any exercise program. This...

I discuss how to balance motivation with discipline, as well as the power of passion. I hope you enjoy!  Legal Notice: Consult a physician before beginning any exercise program. This video does not replace a doctor's visit or physical therapy program.

Hey all! For those of you wondering about my opinion on any fitness creator, this video applies to just about all of them.  I can summarize my message to them pretty easily:  1.) Thank you SO MUCH for doing what you do. Helping people get fit, healthy, and happy is incredible and you should be proud of what you've done.  2.) Please don't hesitate to reach out if you think I can help...

If you need several pots just to feel normal, your relationship with coffee may have become dysfunctional. Coffee still loves you, but you just need to stop being so clingy and give them some room, man.  How much coffee do you drink?   --- For online calisthenics coaching, send me an email at hampton@hybridcalisthenics.com :)   Legal Notice: Consult a physician before begi...

Cycling your coffee with your workouts helps bring consistent progress.   This is one of the first videos I recorded for Hybrid Calisthenics. There are many more that I'll slowly upload.  Legal Notice: Consult your doctor before beginning any kind of exercise program. This video does not replace a physical therapy program or consultation with a medical professional.

Taking a walk is a fantastic time to get your scheduled workouts done. A lot of people do one set of an exercise, breathe for a few seconds, then jump right into their exercise.  That's great for endurance, but the ideal interset rest time is longer for building strength and muscle. Taking a walk in between sets helps us loosen up and stay active during our exercise period.  Legal Notice...

While it may seem cliché, I've learned to respond to hate and negativity with empathy and compassion.  Feeling love for people pushes any hate I have for them out of my heart.  I remember that, more often than not, people are results of their circumstances.   Hate begets hate and abuse begets abuse.   When we understand someone's story, sometimes it seems inevitable t...

Hey friends! How do you manage your stress and anxiety?   Link to the Lily Shirt: bonfire.com/have-a-beautiful-day-lily... This is a video topic I've thought about for a few weeks now. I considered how I face and overcome my own stress. As usual, I don't profess to be an expert on this. People have asked for my thoughts on this topic, and I'm sharing this in the hopes that some people ca...

Thanks for watching everyone! This video, which was filmed as an easygoing, fun project last week... took. Forever. To. Edit.  Hopefully you find it entertaining though!  MAJOR thank you credits for the spontaneous Rrrodent fanart: 444, cat, des rires, Dragonborn, Lurko, Jester's brother, L, Menace to Society, Nasim, The Judgmental Plague, Soyuz, A Fan.  You're all awesome!!!  ...

I get asked fairly often—usually by young males in our community—about how to find a girlfriend.  I also get asked about how to make friends.  It seems like a lot of people are feeling lonely and isolated.  I definitely don't consider myself an expert on "girls and making friends" (is there such a thing?), but I'm happy to share what's worked for me.  Honestly, because there's...

Hey friends! Our channel has been lucky enough to experience a lot of growth in the past few months. Since then, I've gotten a lot of questions about how I grew the channel so quickly. In this video, I talk about my approach to social media. I talk about the importance of serving people over numbers, finding a platform with organic reach, interacting with an audience, cultivating a community, and...

Happy 2021! I am here to wish you all a wonderful, happy, and BEAUTIFUL new year!  There's a lot of talk about new year's resolutions, so I give my opinion on how I try keep mine.  Making resolutions is normal. Making them and KEEPING them for the long-term is truly special and one of the best things we can do!  This has been a slower week for content as the weather outside has been...

Hey everyone! I usually try to alternate the calisthenics videos with "other" videos like philosophy, life, motivation, etc. Today's video was supposed to be about pushups, but it was a nice day and I felt like going for a drive. I drove to a nearby bluff and shot this video.   (It actually ended up being a lot colder than I thought. If I'm slurring a bit towards the end, this may be why...

I keep getting asked about this, so I give my answer in this video.  To summarize, I don't really have an opinion on whether or not people should experiment with abstinence. It's entirely up to the individual.  However, I HAVE noticed that people approach it in different ways, some with much more success than others.  Some essentially refrain from any kind of sexual activity, but st...
