How I Turned My Workouts Into A Video Game

In this video I talk about some of the ways video games tap into our human drives to motivate us to play their games. I cover the essence of gamification and how you can incorporate some of these same things into your workouts. Thanks for reading I hope you enjoy the video!

Thinking about turning this into a minecraft channel

[daniele]

I really can't explain why but everytime I see one of your videos I just get an urge to go and train, nothing like it seriously

[jorgleiger]

Colin this vid is soooo wholesome! I would have loved to see that if I was just starting out. It's amazing how you broke down the mechanics of video games and applied them to fitness in a very simple and relatable way. Looking forward to seeing your lvl 26 🙃

Petition to buy you furniture. It’s time.

7:23 “it’s kinda like crack. and if you’ve ever…” really thought you were gonna ride that analogy 😂

[alex-fddz]

Your content is absolutely underrated. Keep it up!

[KalpeshMange]

Damn bro, I love how straightforward your content is. And your humour is great too! :)

[Suhayl_Khatib]

Your videos are always the most informative! I remember watching the earlier ones and emailing ya for advice! If you’re ever out in Louisville, we gotta hit the gym!

Beautiful work bringing in parrallels from Elden Ring and TOTK can confirm its a great game!!

Chris Heria and Colin Murray made working out fun for me, and it feels so cool! 💪🔥Also got a girl to meet this Monday!

[NickBess]

Love the analogy, also remember resist the urge to use cheat codes.

[DrumDlphn]

Always excited to see new content from this channel

[pastrana]

Do is all Colin, don't let how some of your vids don't get massive viewings and others do get you down. You have a genuine vibe to you and its nice to see your quir....different :P sense of humour :D

[Takigavin]

Love to see how much your channel has grown Colin! Don't forget you said you'd be my friend

[mj.]

Do it for you in mind, instead of the game feel you could feel more powerful and then the powerful Growth happens (make muscle mind connection) (not mind game muscle connection) 😊

[juandavidgomez]

Man I love your videos, they motivate me each time

[eanderson]

Good video and what you said about “finding your style” is extremely important and part of the fulfilling aspect of games. The reason why applying this to fitness is rough is because generally speaking, all men have the same goal

Build muscle, lose fat. If there were more distinct goals to strive towards maybe the process would feel more fulfilling

[ViiM-ky]

Man I like your vid ❤. It would be better if u make consistent vid about ur fitness journey. I would love to see it everyday...

[noel]

This is a certified classic🗣️ let’s see if the game is ready for it tho

[shobarsch]

Wonderful video as always. Would you mind showing us what your lifts looked like when you were starting out? To give some hope to us skinny guys!
