I grew up swimming competitively so I absolutely loathe it now. Most boring way to stay fit, but I’m saying that I can see the benefits if you’re up for the work.
My personal choice for cross training is to do half hour straight on the assault bike. Hold over 50 rpm’s for the duration.
Hey Seth, lap swimming is an excellent way to recruit more red blood cells but you know what could make it even better?? A weighted vest and ankle weights while swimming laps!! Those red blood cells won't stand a chance...

He was talking about cross training, and said that three NCAA football players were put on bedrest for 3 weeks, and decades later, it was like they had aged considerably.
I think he was trying to say that even if you get injured, you should, you know. Move around? Cutting edge science right there.
This was fantastic. Seth's explanation of the study verbatim:
"I heard in a podcast. They pulled from a study back in the 70s or it was the 80s? Three NCAA athletes. This was part of a study. They were like, you know, really great. I don’t know if they were football players. Might’ve been. Um. I need to go back and listen to the podcast. But basically they were put in bed rest for three weeks and in this study when they came out of bedrest it was as if, um, they had aged. It was. Sorry. So okay. So what they did is this. Was back when they were in college thirty years later they did a follow up with the same three athletes and their experience in bedrest for three weeks was the same as far as their physiological decline as if they were 50 years old. As it’s as if you know when they were twenty ah thirty years later to fifty. Anyway if I find the study. It’s a great podcast."
Man, if anything shows that he is mentally fried...this is it. I swear it wasn't this bad 18-24 months ago when I first started watching but maybe I was drinking too much DEEEGEEEEAARRRRR koolaid. If only he would "discern" that a true sabbatical for 6 weeks away from technology would work wonders for his mental health.
yeah but at least today was fun to watch in a can't-take-your-eyes-off of the trainwreck sort of way. the recent shoe battle/ matrix vlogs were useless and turgid

The thing that amazes me is that he watches it while he's editing it. You'd think he'd listen to himself and go..hmm..that makes no sense and try again...just lazy and doesn't care.

You are not thinking that he is "editing". All this garbage goes straight into the vlog. I don't think he is sitting there and contemplating about the quality of his vlog.

He is, but he thinks quality = fancy transitions, text overlays, and graphics. Not what he says. he tries to put out energy and enthusiasm, but has little to say, so it’s all filler words, phrases, etc. it takes him a book page of text to convey three sentences worth of thought.
If you search "seth james demoor" on YouTube, the most popular search terms are all shoe reviews. I think a lot of those views are people who aren't subscribed, which is why some of his videos "how to tie the runner's knot" have 500k + views. People are searching for a specific running related topic in video format, and seth's video pops up. Maybe someone is thinking about getting the mach 5, and so they search that, and find seth's videos. This explains why his family life videos get horribly low views. Seth has 163k subscribers, but it seems only a few k actually watch his videos. Most seem to be people struggling to find a decent shoe review and probably leave Seth's videos confused but inspired in some kind of way.

Interesting to see if this means that TL will start running. Would be a way to make some content for his channel. "From walking to running with TL, a 10 week program to achieve your first 5k". Here you go SJD.
Here comes the pivot to coaching and selling plans to his followers. Why disable the comments? That keeps his devotees in the dark as no LRC or other learned individuals can question his methods or call out the fallacies that he passes off as knowledge.
The YouTube channel is going to become merely an infomercial to entice you to sign up for Discord or another private conduit to his training business. Lots of hype and sizzle on YT but no actual hard content until he has your credit card number and a six month commitment for DGR training plans.
This YouTube channel will offer the subscriber inspiration and motivation for falling in love with running. As we all aspire to remain healthy and fit, running is one of the best ways to maintain a high level of fitness.

You are the right place if you are looking for a high level of running motivation and inspiration.
Canady did similar I guess. But Canady's training plans etc. are actually reasonably good. Seth's advice to a new runner: 130 miles and no carbs in racing flats. "That's how I got my success"
comments turned back on. i think it was probably just an honest f-up - he's probably only slept 5 hours in the last week since it's just that taxing to manage a small genetic village and keep up a parasocial pyramid scheme while only taking in 400 calories a day
Seth's learn to run plan has 2 weeks of walking and strength. And then you start with 2 minutes of running. Doesn't couch to 5K start with 1 minute? 2 minutes of running is extremely bold for someone just starting who can't make it down the block. Seth has zero perspective here.

There have been TL running vlogs in the past. She was training for some 5K race. But I can imagine having smug annoying Seth in your ear while you train made her shut that down.

Also probably difficult when you're not pregnant for only a few months at a time.
