I have been training at the gym since I was 15.

And now I'm pushing 30.

And I'm over weight as well.

Now the gym hasn't helped me as much as I thought it would with losing weight.

But lately I've been seeing an increasing amount of studies showing

that 10,000 steps per day is the main key to losing weight.

And I'm hoping to lose some weight.

I'm currently at 86 kilos.

It's a new month now and I said new month, new me.

But on Monday I only walked 3,000 steps.

But today I'm going to hit it for sure.

Today is going to be the official day I start the 30-day challenge of walking 10,000 steps.

I was already at 5,000 steps during the intro.

Now, I completely forgot and I waited till 11.45pm to suddenly realize I am 8,500 steps in.

Remember, we are doing 10,000 steps a day, not 8,500 a day.

Okay, guys, I kind of messed up.

This is day one and I realized that it is currently 11.45pm.

I was stuck doing some videos, recording some short forms and some long forms That's enough daddy, you go to gym after this And I realized

that we're supposed to be doing 10,000 steps for a day I am currently at, bro, 7,500 steps I'm so cooked,

in the next 15 minutes I'm gonna have to walk 3,500 steps I don't even know how I'm gonna do

that I'm walking in the dark right now I have no idea where I am, I'm in a deserted area I'm kind of scared,

there's a plane flying above me But I want to hit this 10k steps no matter what.

The reason why I'm making this video is to hold myself accountable.

We're going to do it.

Man, I really hope my steps update because I have not updated yet.

I've walked quite a bit as well.

Can I refresh this?

Why is it not refreshing?

Okay, let me check.

I close the app.

Here we go.

We are at 8,000 steps now.

I can do this.

Just 2,000 more steps in the next 14 minutes.

That's easy.

I'll update you guys soon.

I think I did it.

Okay.

Let me show you.

All right, hello, dad.

Here you guys 10,000 steps just in time.

It's 11 59 right now.

Oh We did 10,000 steps.

Holy crap.

I'm sweating my I'm sweating.

I'm sweating so bad right now I went for a run, but now I can at least walk home.

We did 10,000 today Day three Yesterday, I hit 12,000 steps, but it was a bit of a struggle as well.

I worked all the way till 10 p.m., forgot, and then...

Huh?

Yeah, so I got myself one of these bad boys, a walking pad.

But today, I've hit 7,600 steps, and I'm gonna continue with the rest on this walking pad.

I love walking outside.

I would prefer to walk outside more, but because I'm stuck at the PC all the time making videos, I gotta do what I gotta do.

I've already got this much, and it's 5 p.m., So I'm sort of getting used to it, but I find a bit of a struggle.

I'll walk for the first half of the day, which is five, 6,000 steps, and I won't walk for the rest.

I think some of you can relate to that.

If you go to school or if you go to work or something, you'll do that nine to five, and then you go home and not walk for the rest of the day.

The hardest part of this for me is

when I sit down on my PC and I start working and I stop walking.

So let's set this bad boy up and get some steps in for today.

Okay, I know my cable management setup isn't the best.

Don't judge me, please.

I'm gonna work on it.

I just moved to this house a year ago.

Okay, let's get this plugged in.

Okay, now that it's set up, I can stay in this walking pad for about a couple of hours.

I will be able to have 10,000 steps for today.

And this is what we're going to do on hard days, but I'm still going to try to walk outside as much as I can.

Good morning.

Good afternoon, actually.

It's 3 p.m.

I woke up a little bit late today.

But let me show you the steps I did yesterday.

When I first got the walking pad, I kind of, I think I overdid it.

Look at the steps.

We've done almost 20,000 steps yesterday.

That is double of everything that we've done so far.

This walking pad is kind of overpowered.

And for today, so far, I've done 1,400 steps.

And to hit our 10,000 steps today, I'm going to be doing a lot of moving.

So if you guys didn't know, I have a warehouse and I have a lot of my stuff at the warehouse right now.

I'm getting rid of the warehouse soon.

But for now, I've got to move a few things from our house over to the warehouse.

And I thought I'd bring you guys along.

I've got a bit of rubbish here

so let's get started it's gonna be a long day

so about a month ago I cleared out my garage to do epoxy

and when we did that I moved everything into our second living room

which is all the rubbish that you see right here and it's just been here for months and

uh Kim has been really really angry at me

and I have been saying yeah I'll clear it I'll clear it

but I never got to it I'm gonna do

that right now I'm gonna clear it bring it out get rid of here.

Lucky for me, it's not going to be too hard because I've got this trusty old, what do you call this?

Wheelie.

So what I can do is drop it down like this and there's a latch that I've got right here.

Now when I push this latch, look, I can move things around like this.

Very efficient.

100

Time to get to work.

101

If this lands on blue, you have to subscribe.

102

Red.

103

If it lands on red, subscribe.

104

Please.

105

Yeah, this is going to be harder than it looks.

106

After 30 minutes, we are finally done.

107

It is all clean.

108

As you can hear, there is more echo now.

109

I've cleaned it all up, and I also got Kim's thumbs-up approval.

110

Right?

111

Yeah.

112

But how many steps did I take during this little clean?

113

Let's find out.

114

I'm pulling up the app now.

115

We did.

116

Oh, wait, I'll take that.

117

That's an additional 1,000 steps.

118

We are at 2,821.

119

Another 7,200 for today to go.

120

That's okay, because we are unloading everything we've done into the warehouse.

121

So let's go.

122

Oh Finally I can relax, but the real question is how many steps did I get from doing all of that?

123

Let's find out.

124

Okay.

125

Okay, please Please tell me Oh Wait, we hit it guys.

126

We hit it bang on 4,000 steps.

127

That's pretty good.

128

I got another 6,000 to go, but I'm pretty much done on my daily errands

129

So I'm gonna head home walk around a little bit and hit 10k tonight.

130

Oh boy

131

Now this lined up perfectly because I had a holiday booked

132

and you know when you go on holidays all you're doing is walking, sightseeing and probably a lot of eating.

133

Because we are headed to Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan in particular where food is a little bit cheaper than where I'm from.

134

This is one bite and it's gone.

135

However, as long as I stick to the 10,000 steps I think I'll be fine.

136

I hope.

137

So on the plane I struggled a little bit.

138

The space was too tight and I'm not gonna lie At this point, I was up 24 hours.

139

I have not slept at all So I was very very tired, but I still wanted to get my steps in

140

so I went inside of the toilet And I did what I could I walked a little bit.

141

Um, it wasn't that much space But when we left I didn't have 10,000 steps.

142

I was far from it We were at like 3,000 steps

143

So when we first landed in Hong Kong went to the hotel room

144

and then we continued our walk now The good thing about being on holiday is

145

that you're sightseeing you're walking thousands and thousands of steps even if you don't want to.

146

You don't want to waste your money.

147

And that's exactly how I felt.

148

So the amount of steps that Kim and I walked in Hong Kong and Taiwan were absolutely insane.

149

We went to a bunch of places, had a lot of food.

150

We were on full holiday mode.

151

It has been such a long time.

152

And guys, at the end of the trip, we finished with 20,000 steps average for 10 days.

153

When we flew back home, there was another issue.

154

I have a tattoo session.

155

Not only one tattoo session, I have six.

156

And it's gonna be on my lower leg.

157

We're talking three days back to back, eight hours a day, and then one week break.

158

Three days back to back for eight hours each session as well.

159

This is gonna be one of the biggest issues, because as a lower leg tattoo, I might not be able to walk.

160

But I still have to commit to this.

161

And commit I did.

162

See what I did was before my first session, I walked the 10,000 steps.

163

And then once the needle hit my skin, I regretted every decision I ever made.

164

My leg was swelling.

165

It was insane how swollen it got.

166

It was very hard to walk, but I still made it work Well guys, it has been an official 30 days and I am down 2 kilos Not bad.

167

Very surprising because I ate like a maniac.

168

I ate whatever I wanted, however I wanted and I still lost weight Maybe it's all the steps I did in Hong Kong and Taiwan as well.

169

I did 20 000 steps a day average I would say this is a great success.

170

I feel a lot healthier.

171

I feel happier I feel more active and yeah, I think i'm gonna try more sports now as well Walking is kind of like the gateway to other sports and stuff.

172

I like it.

173

It's a lot better.

174

If I'm on my PC for too long, I'll get the walking pad out or I'll just take a walk outside.

175

It has been a great journey.

176

And if you're thinking about doing it as well, I recommend it 100%.

177

To be honest, though, don't do it like I did.

178

If you truly want to walk 10,000 steps to lose weight, you should also consider diet as well.

179

Even though I ate like a maniac, I limited my meals.

180

I think I had two meals a day and that was it.

181

And all in all, that is it.

182

Walking 10,000 steps a day for 30 days.

183

Thank you for watching.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
