The mind is such a powerful thing. Just thinking different thoughts can increase strength

❤

Depression is a result of life circumstances, not a lack of weight lifting. Even if lifting cured depression, there's no moral basis to expect the victim to modify their behavior. No one actually believes this blame shifting nonsense but they'll definitely claim it to avoid responsibility. And as we all know, psychopaths getting no consequences is a real anti-depressant for them isn't it?

Why aren't you making a video related to what Simon hill sad?🙁

video comes out as I skipped my session yesterday due to a bout of depression that took me out for the day. I ll be back in the gym today :)

Dude ok eddie maybe wrong about a few things but calling them brain dead i mean seriously thats like judging millions of people who you dont even know so stop the insults you do you and let others do.them ive not seen eddie make any reels about your content though lot of your content is trash and well alot is good so ill follow the good reject the bad common sense

This SHOULD be a TED Talk.

Bro sounds like a hater , but steak and eggs work 🤣

Honestly it’s the stronger bones and healthy aging that is convincing for me.

I didn't need this study to convince me. As someone who has suffered from anxiety and depression all his life, the gym is a life saver, literally. If I didn't have the gym, I don't know if I'd be here. The gym gives me a purpose with constant new goals to achieve. Besides my dogs that I've been lucky enough to have had, the gym is what's kept me focused on something other than the thoughts in my head.

Dr. Norton, long time fan here but I don't comment much. Here's an idea for the next video - can you talk about proper physiotherapy and spine health? Particularly for herniated disc? I know a lot of lifters and athletes who got one as they age, so I'm wondering what are the proper care and the science behind them. And is Dr. Stuart McGill really that good?

True wisdom!

So how about cardio or yoga? No use?

I tell people i go to the gym for my mental health more than my physical health which has also improved since i got back into the gym. Thanks for the video Layne

Bro turned into Elliot Hulse xD

Randomly happened upon this video and was super impressed by your reasoning. I don’t usually go to RUclips for dietary info, but this was quality content.

This is something that resonates strongly with me as I am someone who has been struggling with a clinical anxiety disorder for the last 16-20 months and taking clinical medication. Training has been the one anchor I could count on, when my mind is blaring and emotions are flying and confusion is in bound it was just so easy to go into the gym and shut off my mind. That being said I find myself now in a position where I almost in a constantly over trained state. I have to to actively pull myself back from training too much. I have 2 training sessions per day spaced out by 12 hours and roughly try and get 2-4 hours sleep between each one. Not gonna lie I feel like an addict chasing the dragon if you can understand the analogy. If I could I would literally not stop working out. Its not sustainable or optimal or healthy but without working out I will tell you from my perspective and experience I would be a thousand times worse emotionally and mentally.

"If you only do what you feel like doing, you will never anything worth it in your life." That's true. I have lived a while doing whatever I felt like, avoiding the hard and scary things and it only gave me problems. It truly is a recipe for disaster.

My anecdote: when I got out of college and got a desk job I had a brief span of time where I stopped being active. Not only was the job stressful but I was doing myself a disservice by being sedentary. What was crazy was, things I found stressful were less so when I started exercising again. It's crazy how something so simple in concept can help so drastically.

Exercise is what got me through grad school and keeps me going

Dr. Milo Wolf sent me here.

I couldnt even watch this after hearing the way you say PCOS🤦🏽‍♀️

Cardio is much better for the mind wellbeing

444444444444 DE ALGOOOOO

virtuous cycle. love your tiktok, Layne.

Layne and Paul are peas in the same pod: Guys who think there’s a single established answer to every nutritional question. We don’t know SHIZ about nutrition. It’s a scientific field in its INFANCY. Try things out and do what works. For me, a mostly carnivore diet works. So get off my back, both of ya.

Might be cool if this guy understood the difference between correlation and causation.

Personally, no. No it doesn't.

Fta

I might be less clinically depressed, but that doesn't change the things to be depressed and anxious about.

Algorithm 😊

Yes it helps a lot. But it's not a new finding, regrettably the information just doesn't get there to the majority of people. There are many reasons why it helps, and if someone wants to learn more about it, just Google "behavioral activation". Learn about it, apply it, and many symptoms will decrease. And the same principles of why it helps apply to other activities as well, just gotta have the right approach

getting your heart rate up to the point where you feel like you’re going to die helps but i never noticed weightlifting to help, if anything i just start comparing my strength and it’s a downward spiral, but to be honest there’s never been a point where i haven’t lifted weights so i have nothing to compare

Honestly the study is riddled with so many limitations and has not been peer reviewed or published that I don't think one should make recommendations based on this or based on physics formulas.

Yes.

Now im strong, not depressed but horny most of the time.

Craziest Ex destruction ever 😂

I’ve seen claims on the benefits of drinking “Hydrogen Water” and would like to hear your thoughts on the subject.

It still is just training. It's just secondary activity

Yes. It has for me and I have vlogged it all since day 1. Not saying 100%. But over 90% easy. I never understood what it was like to NOT be depressed and Anxious all the time....until I simply wasn't. Along w/ cutting out junk and carbs and going high protein ketovore. Completely cured and forging Forward And Onward^

Do not always agree with your videos, but this one makes sense.

FOOORRR THEEE ALGO 😎

3:40 haha, i also hit new PRs post-divorce !

exercise definitely helps, you need it to thrive for sure. but it really depends what your depression and anxiety are from as far as how much it helps and it can even make it worse depending on dosage. Good to keep a balance, too many depressed people put everything into exercise for short term relief but then burn themselves out and have major breakdowns. Obviously if you are going to binge on something exercise is better than many other things but the point is, figure out what is actually going on with you, go to therapy, take meds if you need them. Also exercise, but don't it expect it to cure you. If all you needed was exercise, you weren't clinically depressed you just had a bad day.

Can you do a review on Red light.

The whole artificial sweetener thing continues to puzzle me particularly "sugar free" energy drinks. Some such as monster genuinely affect my health negatively and noticeably particularly during exercise. Others such as Celsius seem to not affect how I feel but will cause a noticeable increase in blemishes the following day. The "Reign Energy" brand seems to have a neutral affect. There's definitely more to artificial sweetners/gut biome health then we are all led to believe.

I have my own recent anecdotal evidence. In 2022 I was trying to lose a shit-ton of weight and I was lifting about three days a week along with three days of cardio. In the latter half of 2023, I had eased off the resistance training and was mainly doing cardio. As someone whose mood can depress with the changing of summer into fall and winter, there was a noticeable difference between fall/winter of 2022 and of 2023. After my dad passed away on Nov 30, 2022, I took some days off work and my first day back was rough. I'm not sure how I did it, but after a week of not working out, I made it back into the gym and my mood dramatically improved. I swear, that one session probably saved me from a full-tilt depressive spiral. So, from March 2022 to April 2023 I lost 82 lbs. I pretty much stayed in the same range as I kept on procrastinating a start to a new weight lifting routine which set me up for the bad fall/winter ahead. By February '24, I had put back on about 25 of those 82 pounds. Guess who's lifting again.

So many claps for the soap box rant at the end about “how much more evidence do you need?!” 👏 👏 👏

Sorry the risk of demise can not be decreased. 100% chance of reaching room temperature. How you expire is where you have an opportunity for improvement.

Over time, Training has definitely helped with stabilizing my emotions and clearing my mind. I focus better and I don’t get overwhelmed often anymore.
