Pratica di Shadowing: Be more private. - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Dude, if I have one more failed bulk, I'm actually going to lose my mind.

I'm getting ready to go to the gym right now.

It's leg day.

Will I record my workout?

Probably not.

I can't be asked.

Sorry.

But I'll see you when we get there.

Right now, my goal is to hit 145 pounds.

I'm about 135 right now, which is actually the heaviest I've been ever.

A lot of people think I weigh a lot more than I actually do

But I'm really lean I think my frame just makes it look like I'm bigger When I'm wearing clothes and stuff

But yeah right now I'm set on 145 If I get to 140, 145 I'll be good And that'll be like a

Unlocking a new character almost

Hopefully I can get that in a month or two

If we stay right where we are We're right where we need to be.

We're focused, we're in the zone, and we're getting our meals in, we're staying consistent in the gym.

And that's really all it takes.

As long as you're doing that, it's just time at that point.

I mean, if that's not gourmet, I don't really know what is.

Look how appetizing!

But hey man, this is it.

I actually don't think it's that bad, to be honest with you.

I just hopped out of the shower.

Me and you are gonna go for a little bit of a walk.

Dude, this weather's my favorite.

It's nice and cloudy.

It's like blue hour.

This is the perfect music to go for a walk and listen to Crystal Castles too.

Honestly, I miss running.

If I wasn't trying to bulk up, I'd be running right now.

It is genuinely so therapeutic.

Just putting on your headphones, head down, but got to stay committed.

If any one of you is trying to bulk up and you're having difficulties, I'm going to give you a little rundown real quick of what I do because it's been working really well.

You just have to stay committed to it.

I get in five meals a day.

I eat at 12, 3, 5, 8, and then about like 11 or midnight, I have my last meal.

Each meal, I try to be around 700 to 800 calories.

That'll be enough to get to like 3,500 at least calories per day.

And if you're lean, you don't have a high maintenance, so that'll be more than enough to get you to gain weight.

Meal one for me is literally just two packs of oatmeal.

I can't eat in the morning.

I have no appetite.

It just is what it is.

You have to work around it.

So I just have two packets of oatmeal and that's it.

And that's at 12.

At three, I have a bowl of rice and ground beef.

It's 200 grams of cooked white rice and 150 grams of ground beef.

And then I add on olive oil onto the top of it to add on a couple hundred calories.

I do the same thing for meal Meal three, meal four, and then meal five, I have a shake.

I'll do two packets of oatmeal, or that's about like 85 grams of oatmeal.

I'll do a tablespoon of peanut butter I'll do soy milk and 100 grams of ice cream and That's it.

And that's my that's my meal plan.

If you stay committed to that I promise you it will work.

I'm gonna head inside cuz I want to talk to you guys about something

Little hint look at the title of the video

something special happens when you stop talking about what you're going to do

and just do it you get an idea an inspiration a motivation to do something ambitious to start hitting the gym,

to start a business, to do something.

And we want to tell everyone about it at work, friends, family, people at school.

But the reality is no one actually cares.

And if they do, it's nowhere near as much as you do.

And that sounds harsh, but the reality is

people have their own lives their own worries and their own goals

and ambitions that they're trying to pursue themselves

so really all you're doing is just watering down your idea

and most of the time you end up not doing it i think

when you start to vocalize and express your deepest inspirations and ambitions,

it loses its essence.

It's like there's like this intimacy that gets lost in the process of this.

It could also be the case that when you tell people,

you add this subconscious pressure that is just kind of lingering because you know you've told

your friends your family co-workers about this new exciting thing

that you're gonna pursue I'm gonna start my own business man

yeah dude I discovered this new business model this is it

man I discovered it I'm gonna be grinding for the next month and I'm gonna be out of here

I'm gonna be financially free I'm gonna be da da da well a month goes by and ain't nothing happen.

It's because when you're alone with your thoughts and you're alone in the process, this lingering pressure of, what if I don't pull this off?

What if I look like an idiot?

What if those who criticize me for this were right all along?

And I think subconsciously, we just succumb to it.

So what we need to be doing is just locking in.

Lock in, bro.

But do it in silence.

Do it alone.

Do it in the dark.

And just do what you got to do, man.

This is your journey.

This is your process.

No one else's.

So keep that intimacy, keep that spark, keep that energy, that motivation, and immerse yourself in this process.

Become obsessed with this process and you will fall in love with it.

Because once you get started and you get in that zone, you know what I'm talking about.

That like flow state, nothing can stop you.

And at that when it's just a matter of time before you begin to evolve into the dream version of yourself,

or you find success in whatever it is you began pursuing.

I remember at the beginning of my personal development journey back in about 2020,

I completely just went silent.

100

Friends asked me to hang out.

101

It didn't matter what it was.

102

I couldn't because my day was filled with things that I had to do.

103

Exercise, read, meditate, prayer.

104

I was making sure I was getting really good sleep, going to bed pretty early, waking up early.

105

I'm going to tell you something.

106

I was not always the person I am today, obviously.

107

But for some people, it might be hard to imagine that I was this kid who had absolutely no discipline.

108

I was this kid who couldn't read and couldn't speak for the life of them.

109

I couldn't formulate a proper sentence because my mind was just so, it was, I couldn't focus on anything.

110

I couldn't sit still and focus on anything.

111

I couldn't think straight because it was just in a million different places at once.

112

I had ambitions, but I had no direction, no knowledge, no clarity, no work ethic.

113

I was going to bed at 5, 6, 7 a.m.

114

I was nocturnal.

115

I was waking up at 3, 4 p.m., gaming all day.

116

I mean, I was actually malnourished at the time.

117

I'm lean now, but dude,

118

back then I weighed about 104 or five pounds as a 18 year old adult male.

119

Like that's not normal.

120

I was in a really bad spot mentally.

121

And, and as far as personal development, I mean, I wasn't getting anywhere, but I was making an effort.

122

I was making an effort.

123

It's just that I had no longevity in what I was trying to do.

124

If I was trying to get in the gym, I would go for a week, two weeks, maybe even a month if I was really in it.

125

But I'd quit.

126

I'd stop.

127

If I was like, you know, I should start reading.

128

I'd read one chapter of a book and never pick it up again.

129

If I wanted to start waking up early, I'd wake up at like 6 a.m one day, be proud of myself.

130

Like, yeah, this is awesome.

131

And the next day I'm waking up at 11, 12, whatever what it was, there was no sustainability.

132

Because anytime I got the motivation to improve something in my life, I would tell my best buddies about it.

133

I would tell people at work.

134

I tell people at school.

135

I tell family.

136

And it just watered it down, man.

137

It lost all its essence, all that spark that makes it so exciting in the first place.

138

And then when time comes, I mean, there's no, it just doesn't mean the same.

139

But eventually I came to the conclusion that I was just going to let people judge me based on my actions.

140

And I was going to judge myself based on my actions.

141

My actions are what were going to speak for me.

142

And so I started talking less.

143

I just simply started talking less in general.

144

I had no words for anything because I got into a mental state that was just so focused on my path, on my daily actions of improvement.

145

I was focused on the gym.

146

I was focused on reading.

147

I was focused on prayer.

148

I was focused on my sleep schedule.

149

I was focused on staying hydrated.

150

I was focused on dedicating time to my craft.

151

That was it.

152

That was it.

153

That was the only thing on my mind.

154

So I had no desire to talk about anything else.

155

I didn't even have a desire to talk about that

156

because I knew eventually my actions would contribute to a significant transformation that would just simply speak for itself.

157

I wouldn't have to do any talking.

158

So be patient.

159

Be patient and let your actions, your transformation, your evolution speak for you.

160

And in that, as you get farther in that process, you'll gain a level of confidence,

161

a level of control, a presence that is unimaginable in a really, really, really good way.

162

And it's going to help propel you even further into this version of yourself that you're striving to be.

163

We want to be our best in mind, body, and spirit.

164

That's the goal.

165

That's the purpose here.

166

It's really just about building up momentum.

167

So we have to shift our focus from

168

external things and focus it inward on the things

169

that we're improving mind body and spirit that's all you got this i believe in you

170

but let this be day one don't watch this video

171

and go off

172

and get into the same mistakes be intentional be intentional with

173

your actions you understand what you have to do getting to

174

where you want to be is not a matter of how it's a matter of will

175

and so take this information

176

and live by it breathe it that's how we got to

177

get we can't be half in half out here we got to be all in on us

178

so immerse yourself in that process thank you for watching and i'll see you soon

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
