1
I'm guessing because you clicked on this video, you're ready to kickstart lifestyle changes to become a happier, healthier and ultimately better version of yourself.
2
But it is so goddamn hard to know where to start when everything is so bloody contradictory.
3
Go vegan.
4
Carbs are bad.
5
Fats are bad.
6
Too much fruit is bad for you.
7
You're not getting your five a day.
8
Don't do hit.
9
It raises your cortisol.
10
Maybe try getting your 10 ,000 steps a day, but 10 ,000 steps a day isn't vigorous enough for your heart.
11
Maybe try running, but running is going to ruin your knees.
12
No wonder everyone making the changes that they know they should.
13
But do not fret, I'm gonna lay out the five simple, cold, hard rules that I follow to live a healthier lifestyle whilst working full -time as a doctor.
14
One, get out of an all or nothing mindset.
15
I used to find myself in a constant cycle between restrictive perfection where I ate nothing from a packet,
16
full stop, followed by inevitable dramatic rebellion to the rules that I'd laid out for myself.
17
It doesn't work.
18
Being strict and restrictive and hating your life is not the way to make sustainable positive healthy changes.
19
And what's even worse is that when we set these super high unreachable standards for ourselves and inevitably fail,
20
the guilt eats us up and just makes us feel
21
When I have a home -cooked nutritious lunch before a fast food dinner because I am exhausted, that day is not a failure.
22
Or when I feel really really tired but I still manage a walk, just not a one -hour session in the gym, again not a failure.
23
The key to any healthy lifestyle
24
that lasts a lifetime is not hating every single second
25
and really integrating it into your day -to -day so it's actually sustainable.
26
Two, I aim for most of my calories to come from unprocessed versus processed
27
I think we need to address the elephant in the room.
28
Calories calories are a big part of weight loss and weight gain.
29
There's no two ways about it, it's a scientific truth.
30
However, historically, I have had a very poor relationship with calories.
31
They contributed a lot to my disordered relationship with food, and whilst they can be a really helpful tool for people who want to lose
32
or gain weight with the advice of a professional, calorie counting can take up a lot of time in our day -to -day life, isn't that sustainable long -term,
33
and can contribute to a disordered relationship with food.
34
That being said, as much as I think that I had a bad relationship with calorie counting, I also think
35
that a lot of my disordered relationship with food came from a mistrust around the information that is provided to me.
36
Calories are backed by science, whereas a lot of the other fad diets that are fed to young girls through the media are not.
37
And I think that when you take calories at face value as a data point and nothing more, they can be a very helpful piece
38
Calories are just a small piece of a big puzzle that makes up a holistic, healthy lifestyle.
39
Something that I have found is focusing on your calories coming from unprocessed foods rather than processed foods.
40
More and more research is coming out about how bad processed foods are for us.
41
But realistically, we don't just live in a world where processed foods exist.
42
We live in a world where processed foods are almost pushed upon us
43
when our lives are so busy and we crave convenience and there's marketing everywhere.
44
so good so i will never restrict myself from not eating processed foods completely however acknowledging
45
that they are not the best for us is something that's
46
really important for us all to acknowledge processed food is designed to taste really really really good
47
because it is manufactured so we buy more and we eat more
48
and we crave it and we just can't get enough so
49
that these companies make more money that sounds really conspiratorial but it's basic common sense the more processed food
50
the more you are going to want to eat.
51
I could very easily demolish a whole bar of dairy milk.
52
Could I as easily demolish a whole bag of bananas?
53
No. Where processed food tends to be packed with salt and sugar and other things that make it taste so damn good,
54
unprocessed food as a general rule of thumb, tends to be less calorie dense, but more nutrient dense.
55
So in effect, you get a little bit more bang for your buck.
56
On top of that, when processed foods are packed with salt and sugar, they can change the perception of how we taste foods.
57
For example, I have been eating a lot less processed foods than I did, say, in my final year of medical school,
58
and I never really used to ever say anything was too salty or sweet.
59
I love me some food.
60
However, America with my family there was so much food
61
that I was trying and I was thinking god this is too salty
62
or sweet which Was a shock to me and it's definitely
63
because I have been making a much more concentrated effort to not eat as much Processed food over the last year,
64
but obviously when our perception of taste is changed we're constantly chasing More
65
and more and more and more it's like eating an apple after a bag of haribos
66
and I'm all for everything in moderation, but too much salt and and sugar is bad.
67
Three, exercise you enjoy.
68
The best exercise is the exercise that you can stick to.
69
Do not let anyone tell you what you should or you should not be doing.
70
I remember a couple of years ago the big trend was weight training.
71
Then there was a lot of stuff on social media about weight training making you bulky
72
and then it was pilates and then now everyone's wearing a marathon.
73
Like everything else we have trends in exercise and diets but it's so important to just ignore it all
74
When I started working as a doctor, I was cycling to work every day.
75
It was probably the most uncool, most unsexy thing I've ever done in my entire life.
76
But it meant that when I was working a 60 hour week, I was still getting in about an hour and a half of exercise every single day.
77
And you could bet when I was working those 60 hour weeks, I would not have been going to the gym.
78
It got me moving my body in a way that worked around my schedule until my bike was rudely stolen.
79
If you have not found an exercise, that doesn't feel like exercise which is honestly the god's tear
80
of exercise then try get a membership to a gym
81
that does lots of different classes try all of them
82
and see what takes your fancy
83
or say something like class pass where you can try a little bit of lots of different things
84
or try team sports because from my experience the best way to exercise
85
and it not even feel like exercise is to do it
86
on a team four convenience is king in my fourth year
87
of uni i was deciding between two gyms gym number one 20 pound a month bigger gym more equipment
88
but it was Gym number two, £35 a month, smaller gym, less equipment, but it was below my block of flats.
89
In the end, I chose gym one because I thought 15 minute walk, that's nothing.
90
And of course, it was better value for money.
91
Now let me tell you what happened next.
92
Medical school got stressful.
93
The first thing to go out the window was gym.
94
And in my first two months with that membership, I went to the gym once.
95
That means that my one gym session at that gym cost me a grand total of great British pounds.
96
So for an extra £15, I switched to gym number two, the gym below my block of flats.
97
And would you believe it, I ended up going to the gym consistently three to five times a week.
98
So on average, each gym session in gym two ended up costing me £2.
99
Personally, I am guilty of finding any excuse under the sun to not move my body and not eat healthily.
100
It's so important that we make it as easy as possible.
101
Pick the gym membership that you will actually use.
102
be guilty of making decisions when we're feeling really motivated
103
and energized and not necessarily empathizing with the version of us
104
that has just finished a busy week is exhausted
105
and does not have the motivation discipline or energy to make any decisions
106
that are in line with our long -term goals so
107
when you do feel motivated and energized and disciplined
108
that is the time when you want to make life easier for future you
109
and make everything as convenient as possible and this is the same as convenience food.
110
However, when we do not pre -plan, processed food is often the most convenient food.
111
Fruit is also a convenience food.
112
Microwave whole grain rice is a convenience food.
113
Frozen vegetables are a convenience food.
114
Frozen home -cooked meals are convenience foods.
115
By simply including those in your grocery shop or freezing meals that you've cooked when you have the energy to cook them,
116
you are making life easier for future you and making it so much easier to just reach for the
117
course on the most important point of them all number five Don't bloody complicate it.
118
Drink your water, eat your fruit and veg, move your body, go see a doctor if something is wrong
119
and add in any supplements that you might be missing in your diet.
120
AKA everyone in gloomy Great Britain should be taking a vitamin D supplement between October
121
and April minimum because we are not getting enough of it.
122
Don't be fooled by these headlines
123
that are meant to grab our attention by telling us something
124
that contradicts everything we've ever learned about living a healthy lifestyle because they are studies that focus on tiny groups of people.
125
The conclusions are often a lot less dramatic and a lot less concrete than the headlines would make out.
126
Things are made to be more complicated than they need to be for a reason.
127
And that reason is to sell you stuff that you do not need.
128
When we feel confused, we are far more vulnerable and desperate for solutions.
129
And often the easiest solution that we can see at
130
that time when we're feeling vulnerable and confused lies in a shopping cart.
131

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?
Questo video offre un contesto ideale per migliorare le tue capacità di conversazione in inglese. L'autore discute temi relativi allo stile di vita sano, un argomento di grande attualità e che coinvolge emotivamente molti di noi. Parlando di cambiamenti sostenibili, il video incoraggia una mentalità positiva, che è fondamentale per chiunque voglia migliorare la propria esperienza di apprendimento linguistico. Utilizzando la pratica di conversazione in inglese, puoi sviluppare una maggiore familiarità con l'argomento e, allo stesso tempo, esercitarti nella pronuncia e nella fluidità. L'intonazione e il ritmo del parlato naturale che senti nel video ti aiuteranno ad assimilare nuove espressioni e a sentirti più sicuro quando parli.
Grammatica ed espressioni nel contesto
Durante il video, l'oratore utilizza diverse strutture grammaticali chiave che possono essere utili per il tuo apprendimento. Ecco alcune delle più rilevanti:
- Imperativo: Frasi come "Get out of an all or nothing mindset" mostrano come l'imperativo possa essere usato per dare consigli.
- Uso di "However": L'impiego di "however" nei suoi discorsi serve a contrapporre idee, un elemento utile per costruire argomenti più complessi.
- Forme condizionali: Espressioni come "if you want to lose or gain weight" illustrano l'uso delle proposizioni condizionali, essenziali per esprimere situazioni e risultati.
- Espressioni colloquiali: Frasi come "it's a scientific truth" offrono spunti su come rendere il linguaggio più informale e conversazionale.
Queste strutture sono ottime per la shadowing in inglese, permettendoti di ripetere con il giusto tono e ritmo.
Trappole comuni nella pronuncia
Alcune parole e frasi nel video possono risultare difficili da pronunciare correttamente. Eccone alcuni esempi:
- "Processed": La pronuncia può essere complicata; fai attenzione a non sovraccaricare la "s".
- "Nutrition": Assicurati di pronunciare chiaramente la "u" e di non confonderla con la "i".
- "Sustainable": Questa parola richiede un'enfasi particolare sulla seconda sillaba, che potrebbe essere un punto di confusione.
Praticando queste pronunce attraverso la shadow speak, potrai migliorare la tua capacità di comprendere e farti comprendere in situazioni quotidiane. Affrontare le trappole di pronuncia è essenziale per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e sentirsi più a proprio agio nel processo di comunicazione.
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — un’azione iniziata prima e ancora in corso | have been eating · have been making |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | being said · is provided · are backed |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | have had · have found · I've ever done |
| Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa | people who want · sweet which Was · exercise which is |
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.
