Hey my friends ❤️ I really wanted to talk a bit about the journey to how I got to my current physique, metabolism & training style and what I would have done differently if I were to start now! Hope you enjoy!! Lots of love xx
Very helpful and informative!
You’re one of my favorite fitness youtubers! The mentality you have is so helpful, so considerate, and generally just a positive approach to treating your body & mind well. I’ve been switching from cardio to strength training and de-stigmatizing muscle as bad because it adds weight has become a lot easier just from looking at some of your videos. Thank you for the content, you’re amazing! ❤️
Can you do a video of at home workouts? Some week days I can’t make it to the gym☺️
Such an inspiration to know that the journey is kind of similar to all of us, and we are just figuring out on the way and improving. In the end, it's all that matters IMPROVE!
Such a great video!! Learnt so much xxx
How do you know what your metabolism is? That’s my struggle to know how much to eat in cut/bulk!
what is the difference between hypertrophy and strength training? I thought they were the same…
ILOVEYOUUU. 😀 You inspire me so much. Your videos are the best <3 <3
@natacha.oceane but you started from a thin place. I'm fat. What do I do? My metabolism is crap. Oh I can't watch this anymore it's ridiculous your body has always been perfect
omg how did you build your metabolism so fast?! I've been struggling for so long to get it up to just 2,200 cals without putting on weight, but i keep putting on weight, so then i go back to like 1,800 to loose it…. its a bad cycle 🙁 and i'm really active, both like training, work, etc. and i do have quite a lot of muscle, but my calorie intake is still not increasing (without me putting on fat)
Do you have any idea what I could do? <333
Can you possibly do a video on body recomposition 101? For example, I’d call myself “skinny-fat”, meaning I have high fat to low muscle ratio yet I look okay and I have a healthy weight/bmi for my height. But changing to have more muscle compared fat would help me and others increase overall fitness, ILY ❤️❤️❤️
What guide would you recommend for someone looking to build strength or ‘bulk’ for lack of better word?! ❤️
Love!❤️ admire you soo much!❤️
I love your videos so much, always so happy and informative! Would love to see a fitness Q&A soon and learn more about your iron man experience 🙂 x
Awesome! AMEN to life-long wellness!
Hey <3 Does your Cut Training guide on aflete have hypertrophy training? Would it be good for building muscle or only to cut?
Awesome video! You're always so motivating and uplifting!
YOU are amazing!!!
I workout like 1.5 h a day sometimes less or more it depends, I’m 91 lbs and 5’7and I eat around 2,000… how do I put on muscle ?? Even when I eat more nothing happens, if something I lose more weight
I feel like stretching and isometric exercises play a huge role in physique, and it truly is a journey. At this point in my journey I'm down 65+lbs from my heaviest, and I'm lighter than what I was in highschool. Most of it is over this past two years, and I can honestly say that cardio is the biggest factor in releasing body fat, hypertrophy is the biggest factor in maintaining the metabolism, and Yoga is the biggest factor for toning and physique. Just listen to your body and observe how it responds to each stimulus 🙂 <3
Great video girl ! Where do you put HIIT in your workout routine ? 🙂
Hey Natacha! Could you do a video about how did you train when you where in your hypertrophy fase? I'm training with your guide Move, and it's awesome c: But I'd like to focus on build a lot of muscle and strenght and then, as you said on this video, keep moving from hypertrophy to functional slowly. Thank you for everything! Big big hug!!!! c:
❤️❤️❤️
Hi Nat can u make a video explaining all these type of exercising like what do u mean about hypertrophy, calisthenics, strength etc and if u can make us a workout routine or something like this it would be really helpful for us beginners!! Ilysm and u r amazing
WOW such amazing insight and helpful guidance!!! thanks Natacha <3
ahh I love you so much Natacha! Your honesty and positivity is so refreshing
Would you ever post/ make a guide for your Ironman training?!
Great video! When you started lifiting weights and gaining weight did you fully stopped with cardio?
Hey Natacha! I want to increase my basal metabolic rate so I know I need to bulk. However, I don't necessarily want to grow my quads, shoulders, etc. If I do mainly strength training, can I still increase my BMR? Or do I need to do hypertrophy work and therefore grow the muscles more before I can cut/lean out? I've been weight lifting on and off for awhile but I didn't know any of the lingo and I never really had a plan so it's all a little bit confusing haha.
Thanks love <3
How did you so reliably figure out your metabolism? I know that there are devices you can breathe into but did you use them or did you do something else ?
“Core cardio”? What’s is core cardio?
You are such a great role model for young women everywhere! Could you do a video on what changes the body goes through when you hit the big 3-0 and how you would change your routine and eating habits to remain lean and healthy? I know you aren't there yet, but a lot of women over 30 still watch and appreciate your videos cough-
me-Thanks for being such a positive ray of light!Youre such a ray of sunshine
Just wondering how you went about it? like did you have a trainer? did you figure things out yourself?:)
Very useful video!
In which video do you talk about you losing your period due to you undereating?
Thank you for sharing your experience! Could you give any tips on how best to train for strength? I’ve been doing lots of hypertrophy stuff for the past year and I’m a little intimidated by strength training, but I’d love to tackle that challenge
I love your videos so much!! Do you have a video on what your workout split was like when you first began hypertrophy training? As in, push/pull/legs, upper/lower, etc?
Hi Natacha, thank you for this video!
I like running half-marathons but would like to incorporate hypertrophy and functional training to build muscle and prevent injuries. What would you suggest?
You seem so flexible. Do you ever make time to stretch apart from just warm up and cool down?
Could you do a type of girl talk vid where you address things like the kind of birth control you use and things of that nature? Think it would be super helpful hearing these topics discussed by an athlete 🙂
I really liked this video, very interesting! I just started weigth training a few months ago, after being a "cardio queen" myself haha, and I LOVE the way my body is starting to look, can't believe I never did this before
You said your metabolism / caloric output changed from 1500 to 2700 in / after the first year. How did you keep track of that? How do I know after a few months of training whether or how much my metabolism has increased? HELP! 😀 Cool video 🙂
I'm a teenage girl, and I really want to build muscle and get leaner. I do a lot of cardio now(I do track), but I have a good amount of muscle. All I have is a 12lbs dumbbell and a pull up bar, any tips?
Makes so much sense. I haven't really been doing any functional trainings which is why I think results have been slowly recently. I'm going to start incorporating it into my training! Thanks Natacha xx
Hey Natacha, Thank you so much for continuously sharing the most educational and practical knowledge in your videos! I was curious, though: I understand how you manipulated your "proportions" of your training styles, but how did you incorporate cardio within this shift? You obviously do HIIT style training, but how much of that is in your weekly routine typically? Thanks so much! <3
Do you have any advice on how often I should do hypertrophy training and balancing cardio? I am an avid cyclist/triathlete and find it really difficult to balance "leg days" with cycling? as I usually feel really sore and fatigued a few days after and do not perform well on the bike. Should I focus more on upper body? Also I dont really have an off season as I participate in ironman and/or cycling and running events year round.
I LOOOOOVE your channel.
""id never miss a bus in my life" im dead lmfaoo
I love how you’re full of positiv energy ! You deserve more subscribers
How do you calculate your metabolism rate?
Hey Natacha! Could you do a video on how to build a lean upper body? I see a lot of leg work on social media and would like more info on how to train a lean strong upper body. Hope you have a wonderful day 🙂
I feel like instead of saying "built my metabolism", it might be better say "increased the calories I burned" because implying that your metabolism changes vastly throughout your lifespan is misleading. Your BMR (i.e. "metabolism") doesn't drastically change due to increased heart rate or exercise. People need to stop blaming their "slow metabolisms" for their lack of weight loss or inability to achieve their fitness goals! Just being nitpicky here but I still like your videos 🙂
I have the hardest time with over eating my calorie limit and most of the time it’s junk food xl i don’t know how to stop …I get really bad craving all the time…what should I do? And how do I make up for going over my calorie limit
Have you ever had pain while training? My knees are not great so I tried to do more jumping in my routine and couldn't. I'd love to see interviews with people who started at a heavier weight than you and had pain from body imbalance.
When you flexed.. GOALS!
I’ve been doing weight training with a bit of HIIT for a year now (haven’t been 100% consistent) but I haven’t seen any significant results. I want to reduce body fat and build muscle, grow my glutes and get physically stronger with a better metabolism. I feel like everything I’m doing is wrong and no YouTube video can help me understand what’s right to do because everything is just so confusing and very technical. Any help would be much appreciated!
Is there a way to accurately determine how many bmr is and how many calories I would need for maintenance? How
This is a really informative video!! I started transitioning into doing functional training a few months ago because I was tired of doing the same old 4-day-a-week hypertrophy training. Now I actually look forward to working out again because I do what I wanna do and have fun with it. I currently weight lift 3 days a week and do 2 days of HIIT. At first I was worried about losing mass but I realized it was just what I needed to look and feel better. Thanks Natacha!
Love it! Can you make a video about whether or not body types (mespmorph, ectomorph, etc) exist, and how you should train to achieve muscle gain without significant fat gain
I WISH I COULD AFFORD YOUR WORKOUT GUIDE!!!! It's just not in the cards right now 🙁
Love your videos! Does your Build. guide follow this advice or does it follow a different methodology/training model? Thanks!
I want to start functional training but I don't know how
can you pleaseplease show a good hypertrophy workout for beginners to build muscle? i really want to shape my body but as a student living abroad i have limited time and resources TT
love your videos and all your advice. <3
How you got that abs~??
How do you cut without messing up your metabolism??
Note to self: continue at 6:47
What machine do you use to figure out your metabolism? How do you know how many calories you're burning? How do you figure all these things out?!?!??!
Keep on going Natacha! You are so strong! I love your sayings and your positivity. Have a nice and positive day:)
Thank you, this was really informative.
I know this a little bit older of a video but how does cardio, like jogging fit into this? Good or bad?
What exactly is hypertrophy training?
I love that you transitioned to functional training. I am a retired physical therapist and athletic trainer. I used to do mostly weight lifting for aesthetics. I thought stretching and functional training was over rated. BOY WAS I WRONG. What I realized as I got older (55 years old right now) is I still look good but boy did I get tight and mobility as you get older especially if you retire goes. EVERYONE should add stretching and functional mobility to their training if the goal is to have an active life free of pain way up into your older years(which pain comes with increasing limited mobility). Incorporating animal movements has been awesome as well as increasing functional movement patterns in training which require the use of multiple muscle groups working together vs just a bench press. Keep up the good work I think you have optimized the way most people should train if quality of life is goal.
I just don't get how people can do hypertrophy training 5 or 6 times a week. I train – get sore for 3 days – train – get sore. So I only manage to train twice a week. Even if I don't get sore I can't perform on the same level when I don't rest at least two days after a workout. Any tips?
I love that you really try to consider lots of different types of people and circumstances. So glad I've found your videos! Please keep doing what you're doing and educating us!
I eat ass
This is one of the best personal training vids ever made, no joke. She get's it.
You are my NETFLIX during this quarantine! I loveeeeeeeee everything you do <3
I actually LOVE that cardio body! so, what .. you have to eat like a mouse to get it? 🙁 I thought endurance athletes could eat loads cause they burn so much! no? ..
4:45 I've lifted weights for 2 years and I didn't build anything great… still flabby xD
i only train strength 2x a week! i saw this video after i decided, but i've started tumbling, doing mobility and plyometrics, and slowly working into calisthenics!
When you cut, do your legs/butt get smaller??
