I Made Him Train Like Me for 30 Days (INSANE Results)

Recently, Kevin followed my diet plan and lost an impressive 12 pounds. But now, we're taking it up a notch: what happens if he takes on the fitness challenge of copying my intense training program for the next 30 days Could this 30 day fitness challenge work for a beginner with a completely different body type Or will the training be too much for him, both physically and mentally How much muscle can Kevin gain in 30 days Here’s Kevin’s 30 day body transformation. Click below for a step by step plan training plan that reveals all the best exercises you should do for each and every muscle group: Click below to subscribe for more videos: So before today, Kevin's workout plan consisted of 3 full body workouts per week, each being about 45 minutes long. During the 30 day fitness challenge, however, his workouts will jump to 5 workouts per week. Each workout lasts at least an hour. It also utilizes reverse pyramid training to increase my strength while maximizing growth. Reverse pyramid training involves doing your first set with the heaviest weight, aiming for lower reps (anywhere between 4 to 6 reps. After that, you drop the weight by about 10% for the rest of your sets just to get the training volume. I also like to superset my training. It’s a proven approach that can help you do more in less time. But it can be exhausting, especially for beginners. Kevin’s starting weight is just over 216 lbs. Over the next 30 days of this fitness challenge, I hope his training can accelerate his fat loss journey and help him shed off at least a few pounds. But I also want to see just how much strength Kevin can build on his push-ups, presses, and chin-ups and how his muscles will respond and grow to all the training. And lastly, I’m not gonna lie, Kevin’s conditioning needs work. He not only gets easily gassed between hard sets, but any sort of cardio totally wipes him out. I’m gonna see if we can not only get him stronger and leaner but fitter as well. Something I quickly was that just because one exercise is a great fit for me, doesn’t always mean it’s a great fit for Kevin. For example, when I tried running Kevin through dips, the exercise was too challenging. So we had to swap them for an easier exercise that still hits the lower chest: incline push-ups. Now, most people associate rest days with doing absolutely nothing. At least, that’s what Kevin had in mind when going into this 30-day body transformation journey. But doing the right amount of movement can actually help speed up Kevin’s muscle recovery. Not only was Kevin’s poor conditioning holding him back from his workouts in the gym, but there’s some new research suggesting that improving your cardiovascular fitness may provide benefits in blood flow inside your muscles and lead to faster muscle growth. So we’ll get Kevin moving and doing a few higher-intensity workouts to get his heart pumping even on rest days. The only problem. Kevin is struggling with the time commitment. At first, I tried using rest-pause sets to condense his workouts. With rest-pause sets, you use the exact same weight and try to do as many reps as you can on your first set, rest just 15-30 seconds, then again try to do as many reps as you can, and repeat that until you get to 30 reps total. But Kevin wasn’t thrilled with it. Thankfully, a recent study from my good friend Dr. Brad Schoenfeld’s lab found that even doing just 1 set per exercise can still lead to significant gains, as long as you’re pushing hard enough. So, while Kevin might not maximize his gains with this approach, he’d happily trade a little muscle for cutting his workouts down by a third. A quick check-in on Kevin’s progress in week 3 found that he’s improved on his sprinting and various exercises, including push-ups, chin-ups, chest press, and Romanian deadlifts. As for his weight, it’s stayed more or less the same at 215 lbs. But I wasn’t overly concerned. With every single lift in the gym going up, and Kevin training with a lot more intensity and volume than before, there’s a strong chance he’s experiencing muscle gain as he’s losing fat through the 30 day fitness challenge. Also known as body composition. Results time on day 30: Kevin’s chin-ups jumped from 2 on day 1 all the way to 5 chin-ups by day 30 of our 30 day fitness plan. A 150% improvement. As for his weight loss. Kevin dropped 3 lbs on the scale, but at the same time, he lost 2. 5 cm off his waistline, which is a really good indication that Kevin was losing fat through this process while gaining muscle. And you can really see the difference in his photos even though he only dropped 3 lbs through the 30 day fitness plan.

Hell yeah! Keep at it!
I'm IT and spend most of my days sitting. My daily workout is my only escape from the keyboard. Music on, disconnect for a bit, push yourself.
I never focused on weight, for almost 8 months, just focused on the discipline of lifting and counting calories. Went from 265 to 195 in that time. That was 7 years ago. these days I'm just continuing to add muscle.
YOU CAN DO IT!

I had a similar body type as Kevin's. I could do a few chin-ups at first, but kept at it to improve strength. But I found nutrition/diet made the biggest difference on improving my chin-ups. Nutrition/diet -> Lose weight/lighter on your feet -> Much easier to do chin ups, push ups, jump squats, jump rope, etc! That being said: Maintaining good nutrition/diet is WAY harder than exercise!

Been messing around with intense/ shorter workouts and more relaxed / slight longer workout. found that I could lift heavier in relaxed workouts and at the same time, I was more consistently going to the gym. For intense workout, I found myself burning out after 3/4 weeks and then not see the gym for 2/3 months.
Definitely think its worth people trying more relaxed workouts.

15: 26 Honestly, I don’t see any meaningful changes between Day 1 and Day 30, aside from the usual tricks to make it seem like there’s progress (e. g. hair down vs up, unhappy vs happy expressions, different glasses. I get that one month isn’t enough to see noticeable visual changes but let’s not exaggerate or mislead people just to promote your program.

I have purchased BWS shred program and I am very excited to start! The course mentioned an upcoming mobile app, do we have timeline when that may be released I do follow with the tracker, but I feel like it would be easier to hold myself accountable if there was an app.
Thank you so much, and this video was so much!
I can't wait to get started!

His weight staying the same despite his increasing strength doesn't necessarily mean that he body recomped. The strength increase in his case is due to neural adaptation, not hypertrophy adaptation, for one main reason: he is a beginner and hasn't been training long enough to exhaust those neural adaptations.

Jeremy, can you please do more sport focused programs in one video Please release a video that explains how to build a lot of muscle without impacting sport performance. I’m a wrestler and I love working out and I want to build muscle but I don’t want it to get in the way of my wrestling. Thanks!

Holy moly, he became broader. My god, that waist circumference loss was good. That's a good indicator.
You put more pounds of muscle so you have lost fat and gained muscle mass. Don't look at the scale, look at the measurements. Buy a tailor's tape.

Hopefully you didnt push him too hard and overtrain him. You could make him never want to workout again if he associates exercise going forward with over training and not being able to perform what he was taught was necessary to get fit.

i think running is too much for actrive recovery for an untrained individual esp one sitting a lot and not building up that cartiledge, start with rowing or cycling IMO move to running later esp when starting at 210 i think

THAT IS NOT REVERSE PYRAMID SET BUDDD! It's just hybrid meaning strength low reps heavy weight, then size (sarcoplasmic hypertrophy) low sets high reps 75 percent weight! This fkn guy!

Not sure if pushing an overweight programmer to do 5x weight training with interval sprints in between is a good idea. Sure he hates bar squats, his back and glute strength is non existent.
reply

GhostInspired
Great video. Just one thing on the squat. If he's going to do a glute dominant movement then he should have also used a low bar position, not the high bar position.

30 days! I would love to see update videos of this EVERY 30 days for 1yr. Great content guys! Keep pushing Kevin, you’re inspiring us all!

To achieve what Kevin did in 30 days first we need to get into a shape in which Kevin was ant day 1. This is how logic works.

Can we give Kevin an enormous amount of kudos for being able to bravely go shirtless in these videos That’s not easy. Keep it up!

Jeremy: Hi Kevin, I'm broke and can't pay you any more. You either grow some muscle and we both make some money or you are fired.
