Jeff, help, I've been bench pressing for 5 months now but my calves are still tiny! What am I doing wrong?

[frankfurtdeu]

Hey Jeff, can you please make a video about "Are Multivitamins necessary? Can we get enough daily vitamins by eating vegetables and fruits?"

[SenorArmani]

As an amorphous "ecto" who drinks 8 glasses of water and a gallon of milk every day, I'm offended! Reporting you to the FBI Jeff!

[paulvictor]

the spot reduction study scares me because of the amount of people I have called idiots when they said spot reductions a thing...

[mugflub]

Highest quality fitness content on the interwebs.

[AaronG]

Studies relating to breakfast consumption in terms of psychology have shown great rewards for breakfast eaters over skipping breakfast, and I understand this video is only focusing on the physical aspect of breakfast, but I feel like it's important to mention that there is a pretty substantial correlation between skipping breakfast and anxiety and other irritable behaviours.

“The bros were actually kinda on to something” 😂😂 that killed me lol

[drewnut]

i would enjoy a fitness fad friday where you look into popular fitness trends and evaluate their effectiveness like CT Fletchers tricep gauntlet.

[MephistoRolling]

I always find the spot reduction studies baffling, as i always assumed that your body would consume nutrients fairly symmetrically. no idea where i got the idea from, but the upper and lower results to me seem to be set up in a more logical way compared to the left and right-sided differences.

[RichyB]

Jeff Cavalier, Jeff Nippard... Theres somthing about you Jeffs that make your videos interesting to watch

[Yoitsbobbyboy]

Thank you for the microwave comment. So many people think the microwave is like a device straight from Chernobyl.

[PrebenOlsen]

Jeff, if you were single, and I was gay, and you were gay, .. wow there's a lot of ifs in this scenario already. Guess it's never going to happen :(

[loga]

This channel has blown up for a reason- quality content.

[aprilmay]

How are there only 1M subscribers? The quality of this content is impeccable.

8 glasses of water a day is such a weird concept. When I’m at home I hardly drink more than 4-5, but when I was working in Kuwait last year I drank more than 8 bottles or 16 cups per day during the summer between working outside, meal times and working out each day. Your body knows best

[leonardogomez]

That advice on mind body connection was pure gold

[gerryjtierney]

Jeff "90g of table sugar a day has zero health detriments" Nippard

[Al.j.Vasquez]

Localized fat loss is only a matter of gaining muscular mass in the given area, or training the mass that you already have, it can happen but it's more evident in thin to lean people, not overweight subjects.

[FrootNinja]

you've come so far with these videos man i'm so excited for season 2!!
