Shadowing Practice: Training W/ Real Life Vampire (Anti-aging) - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
This is the man spending millions to become 18 years old once again, Brian Johnson.
2
For the next 24 hours, I'm going to be trying his daily protocol.
3
Let's see if I survive.
4
My name is Brian Johnson.
5
I am a professional rejuvenation athlete.
6
I started Project Blueprint to explore the boundaries of human aspiration.
7
We're in front of this house.
8
It's very interesting and dark.
9
Brian!
10
Hey!
11
How you doing?
12
Good to see you.
13
Hello!
14
Good to meet you.
15
Welcome.
16
You're not liver king.
17
Yeah, I'm meta-vegetable.
18
I invited Jesse over today and we're going to compete on three rejuvenation challenges.
19
This is for you.
20
This is a shot of extra virgin olive oil.
21
You've got a chaser of this green concoction.
22
I won't question what it is.
23
Oh, that is so good.
24
It's the best olive oil in the world.
25
Wow, that's potent.
26
Yeah.
27
So come on in.
28
That's potent.
29
So today we're going to put you through my entire morning protocol.
30
So this has been designed bit by bit of how we can maximally slow one's speed of aging.
31
So I'm not trying to prepare myself to go to the jungle and fight a wild animal.
32
I'm not trying to be a athlete.
33
I'm trying to reduce my speed of aging.
34
I think you're doing a great job.
35
You look great, man.
36
Thanks.
37
This can take some time to acclimate to.
38
So if you do need to take a bathroom trip.
39
That's embarrassing, Brian.
40
First time here, I'm going to blow up the toilet.
41
But it's going to feel so good.
42
After discussing the unpredictability of my bowels, I surprised Brian with a little gadget that I acquired from a secret tech corporation.
43
I know that you want to improve your vision, right?
44
It's perfect actually.
45
But you want it better than perfect.
46
Yes.
47
Let's just say.
48
Yes.
49
I found these things on Amazon that improve your eyesight.
50
They're really good.
51
So if you want to toss your pair on, what you want to do is you want to wear these for only a few seconds because they're really powerful.
52
And then you can hit them for buttons and they change colors.
53
That's cool.
54
Let me turn yours on.
55
Okay.
56
He seemed mildly amused.
57
We're gonna start you off with heart rate variability therapy.
58
So on your left, triagus, this guy right here.
59
Oh, this little thingy?
60
Yep.
61
Oh my god, that's the weirdest feeling of my life!
62
Okay, so it's on.
63
Is it supposed to like sting a little?
64
Yeah, exactly.
65
It's telling your nervous system to chill out.
66
There you go.
67
Yo, I'm chill.
68
I'm winning Cali, you know what I'm saying?
69
Yeah, that's right.
70
Ayyy!
71
The best time to work on hair thickness and growth is before you start losing it.
72
One of my biggest fears is losing my hair.
73
Yes.
74
And you got a nice solid head of hair.
75
So I'm excited to try this thing out.
76
So this is Red Light Therapy, has 312 diodes.
77
Just put it on your head.
78
Should I go forward or backwards?
79
What do you think?
80
Try out the backwards?
81
There you go.
82
You know what I'm saying?
83
I've not done that before, but yeah, okay, cool.
84
First time for everything.
85
And then just hit this button.
86
Oh!
87
God!
88
You just dropped me!
89
No, I'm kidding.
90
I'm kidding, guys.
91
I'm kidding.
92
My ear is just zapping right now.
93
It's pretty damn crazy.
94
Is it too intense?
95
I kind of like it intense, Brian.
96
Yeah, I know.
97
You really went after it.
98
Okay.
99
That's one speed.
100
Okay.
101
So every day you're doing this, like, is it just such a routine that you don't even feel like you're doing it?
102
Or was it something that you had to kind of get used to?
103
All this runs.
104
Yeah, autopilot.
105
I love my food.
106
I love my routine.
107
I love my bedtime.
108
I love everything about it.
109
It's counterintuitive for most people.
110
They assume I'm miserable, that I have a monk-like life.
111
I've actually never been happier or fulfilled or felt more expansive in my entire life.
112
This is breakfast.
113
Wow.
114
Do you take them all at once?
115
So you just down it?
116
Three times.
117
I do three swallows.
118
So you do 20 pills at a time?
119
Yeah.
120
There's one really big pill in here.
121
If I don't get it right, I have to kind of like move it around my mouth a little bit.
122
I hate when that happens.
123
Brian proceeded to have his breakfast.
124
And once he got all 60 pills down his throat, it was time for the first challenge of the day.
125
Challenge number one is sleep.
126
The most important thing each of us do on a daily basis.
127
Did we wake up today wanting to hug life or did we wake up wanting or feeling irritated about life?
128
Well, you see.
129
Um, Brian, why the hell do you get up this early?
130
I was more than excited because I knew I was going to see those pretty eyes.
131
I'm just saying, I'm just saying.
132
The difference between hope and despair is a good night's sleep.
133
How's Jesse doing?
134
To track my sleep, Brian recommended for two weeks I wear a sleep-measuring wristband, which tracks my sleep scores.
135
So it's time to see who is the better sleeper.
136
I've been wearing this for like two weeks to like prepare for this.
137
How'd you do?
138
Uh, 80.
139
What'd you say?
140
That's respectable.
141
80% sleep score.
142
I got 6 hours, 25 minutes of sleep.
143
Pretty stoked about the 80% as that was the highest score I have ever gotten on.
144
Well, anything.
145
But how good was it compared to Brian?
146
My sleep score for the past three months has been 100% every night.
147
Come on, man.
148
You got to show me up like that.
149
And I got 9 hours and 12 minutes of sleep.
150
9 hours.
151
That is impressive.
152
What time did you go to bed?
153
8, 10.
154
8, 10?
155
Yeah.
156
Brian, it was still daylight outside.
157
I know.
158
How do you sleep when it's like bright out?
159
This whole room is blacked out, so no light gets in here ever.
160
So this is like the vampire cave?
161
This is the vampire cave.
162
Oh, damn.
163
Okay.
164
Drinking the equivalent of 20 laxatives, voluntarily stinging your ears, eating 60 pills and calling it a meal, and going to bed at 8 p.m every night,
165
Brian was definitely not your typical guy.
166
I'm just going to use the bathroom real quick.
167
I'll be as quick as I can.
168
I think he's a literal vampire.
169
I'm not kidding.
170
I don't think that he is an actual human.
171
No light gets in his bedroom.
172
There's barely no light in the living room, but he's a nice guy.
173
Subscribe, please.
174
Challenge number two is Jesse and I are going to compete in cardiovascular fitness.
175
All right, so this workout's gonna be 53 minutes.
176
Okay.
177
We're gonna do about 30 to 40 different exercises.
178
We're gonna go fast.
179
Okay.
180
So I'll do the exercise first.
181
You just follow me through the whole thing.
182
Okay.
183
I try to flex and stretch every muscle of my body every day and I never get sore and I love it.
184
Oh that's really tight.
185
Oh my god.
186
So how long have you been doing this whole protocol for?
187
Two years.
188
Two years.
189
Yep.
190
And how much have you reversed your age?
191
Epigenetically, 5.1 years.
192
Wow.
193
And then, more importantly, slowing my speed of aging by 31 years.
194
Oh my God.
195
The rate in which my body ages.
196
After Brian and I went through all the different exercises, it was time for a little cardio competition.
197
You'll want to see how far you can get.
198
Okay.
199
In a 10-minute time.
200
And as you do that, I'll be on the bike.
201
Start.
202
Okay, I'm going.
203
As far as possible in 10 minutes.
204
Yeah, in 10 minutes.
205
Brian Brian Brian Brian Not even an ounce of pain
206
What'd you get?
207
1.7 1.7?
208
Are you kidding?
209
I suck I thought Jesse was going to school me It was very close I got work to do Hey, good work Good work All right, well, the 23-year-old loses once again.
210
So yes, I did lose to Brian, but I'm gonna tell you guys how to win your diet thanks to this video's sponsor, AG1.
211
So every day I start my morning with eight ounces of cold water along with one scoop of AG1.
212
It gets me right, it gets me feeling good, and I literally just stir it up.
213
You could use a spoon, you could use a straw, but I just like to use my finger.
214
AG1 is packed with 75 vitamin, minerals, and whole food source ingredients, and it's made for everybody.
215
If you're anything like me, you don't always eat your vegetables like you should.
216
And that's why I use AG1 to fill in the gaps in my nutrition.
217
Because I've been dieting lately, I've actually been lacking a lot of vitamins and minerals.
218
So AG1 is a great replacement to start my day off to make sure
219
that I hit all those goals and I'm not skipping out all the nutrients that I truly need.
220
Not to mention, it's also been helping my energy throughout the day and my brain focus.
221
And that's huge as someone who's an entrepreneur.
222
Make sure you guys click that first link down below to get a year supply of vitamin D3, K2, and five free travel packs for free with your purchase of AG1.
223
And also it supports me a ton.
224
I appreciate you guys.
225
Let's get back into the video.
226
We got some breakfast.
227
Different breakfast.
228
Is this for both of us or just one?
229
Oh, thank you, thank you.
230
We got some broccoli, some other type of broccoli.
231
We got some vegetables, baby.
232
Tablespoon of olive oil.
233
Okay.
234
So you want two or three tablespoons each day.
235
You had your first when you arrived.
236
Yeah.
237
A lot of people who eat my diet, they're unable to eat all the food.
238
It's too much.
239
Really?
240
Too much volume for them.
241
This is really heavy.
242
How many calories is this?
243
With all the olive oil and chocolate, like 600 or so.
244
Okay.
245
Oh, that's a lot more dense than I thought.
246
Definitely, this is some organic stuff, I can tell.
247
This is like, do you have a farm back here or something?
248
This is homegrown.
249
What is your best piece of advice for anyone that wants to be an entrepreneur?
250
Take care of your health.
251
I just drove myself into the ground.
252
There was a former version of me in my early 20s that was grinding very hard to be an entrepreneur.
253
And I had a badge of honor.
254
I was ragged.
255
I didn't sleep.
256
It was kind of what you did to be try to be an epic entrepreneur.
257
I really wish I hadn't done that I wish someone would have told me health is your number one priority
258
Everything else you're trying to do is secondary But what's the difference with having more money like that?
259
You've noticed like lifestyle changing or like people looking at you different your money is honestly Really complicated.
260
I grew up poor Never had money and really just 34 years old.
261
I was just dead broke Wow and And it just changes your relationship with the world.
262
You never quite know why someone's engaging with you.
263
So it creates a lot of unknowns.
264
It's just complicated.
265
More money, more problems.
266
Do you agree with that statement?
267
Different problems.
268
I'd argue you're going to be a better entrepreneur if you take care of your help.
269
If that's your number one goal, you'll be just as successful as you would have been.
270
It's a myth that you have to grind yourself to the ground to be successful.
271
That's like my biggest goal of 2023 is to optimize my life to the best of my abilities
272
because with that comes better outputs elsewhere.
273
All right, next up, we're going to head up to the clinic where we're going to measure a bunch of things about Jesse, things that you cannot see with the naked eye.
274
We're here in the clinic and we're going to go through a couple of routine practices we do of measurement and therapies.
275
So we're going to start you on this side with red light therapy.
276
I do this three times a week.
277
You do it in the nude.
278
Oh, really?
279
What's the big deal?
280
What's the big deal?
281
All right.
282
Hold this over.
283
You can don those now.
284
Okay.
285
Oh my gosh.
286
Alright.
287
I don't know what's gonna happen to me, guys.
288
Three, two, one.
289
Ahhhh!
290
I'm just kidding.
291
Okay, so what exactly does this do to my body?
292
Red light is good for general healing and repair, good for nitric oxide production, just good for the body energy overall.
293
It feels amazing.
294
It feels like I'm laying on the beach.
295
It does.
296
It's...
297
It's relaxing.
298
It's extremely relaxing.
299
It's one of my favorite moments it makes me it's almost
300
like a deprivation tank for me where after i get finished
301
i just feel weightless oh my god am i glowing or what next thing we're going to do is a measurement
302
so blueprint is powered by the ability to measure something okay
303
so just like the diet we ate every single calorie you have designed for a specific purpose
304
and every calorie has to fight for its life we're going
305
to measure the age attributes of your face oh i don't
306
want to know this sometimes you think you can assess the aging of your face or sun damage, you can't.
307
You know that guy's pretty pretty good looking, huh guys?
308
Good scores.
309
So for spots, 88th percentile.
310
Wrinkles, you're doing very well.
311
99th percentile.
312
Texture, 79.
313
Pores, 96.
314
Let's go.
315
These are really good numbers.
316
This one is your lowest score.
317
Okay, 5%?
318
This is UV damage.
319
UV damage.
320
So you've been out in the sun quite a bit.
321
Yeah, especially the past few days.
322
So this shows all the UV damage from sun exposure.
323
You've actually scored really well in many areas.
324
Some areas you could have improvement.
325
Once we had a full analysis of my face, Brian then hooked me up to an ultrasound to assess my heart.
326
So this is a medical grade ultrasound system.
327
Okay.
328
And it can measure your entire body.
329
Moment of truth.
330
How big is Jesse's heart?
331
What is that?
332
No. Why are they high-fiving what the hell is that gorgeous that's
333
so wild structuring diet and exercise
334
and every other routine we have this full 360 view all
335
of our measurements we see exactly what happens inside the body
336
from all these different measurement perspectives that's insane does it look like a good heart yeah
337
never heard that one before this machine is high frequency electromagnetic
338
stimulation so going s exactly okay it's gonna flex okay i'm gonna start you off at 50 okay
339
oh man i can take it oh
340
oh my god that was terrifying amp it up it's gotta be hurting now huh a little yeah Yeah.
341
35. Give me 90.
342
Go on, go to 100.
343
Ah!
344
Go, Brian, go!
345
Stop!
346
This is gonna be your favorite meal of the day.
347
Really?
348
Yeah.
349
My favorite meal of the day is nutty pudding.
350
Macadamia nuts, walnuts, flaxseed, berries, pomegranate seeds, and then you put a little pea protein in and some chocolate.
351
You see, it's a lot of food.
352
I mean, we haven't...
353
Yeah, no, I mean, I didn't even finish it.
354
Haven't even finished breakfast yet.
355
Pea protein?
356
Should we cheers it?
357
Yeah.
358
Hit me with the cheers.
359
Cheers to...
360
Blueprint.
361
Blueprint.
362
Blueprint, baby.
363
Challenge number three is we're going to look at our speed of aging.
364
Jesse did a test looking at his DNA methylation patterns.
365
We're going to see is he aging faster or slower than me.
366
My pace of aging.
367
I'm hoping for something good, so...
368
My objective with Blueprint is that we do something, all of us, in the early 21st century, that people in the 25th century look back on and say they figured it out.
369
They figured out how to become the future of humans.
370
What would be a good number?
371
It is like 0.7s.
372
Okay, and then what are you at?
373
The last one was 0.69.
374
Ah, best number there is.
375
Being able to discuss multiple topics, including mental health, shined a light on how regardless of how wealthy you are and successful you are, when your health is not your main focus, you will never realize your full potential.
376
I was chronically depressed for a decade and once you get in that hole, you can't dig out.
377
It's just the walls are slippery, there's nothing to grab onto.
378
Maybe I could have avoided that if I would have been wise enough to not fall into the trappings of that grind.
379
Are you ready to discover my pace of aging?
380
Live life to the fullest.
381
Go have the most fun.
382
Go make memories.
383
Take in every moment.
384
Point...
385
Seven-nine.
386
Wow!
387
Great!
388
Let's go!
389
You did beat me.
390
But you know what?
391
My details.
392
Jesse's doing many good things in life.
393
Now he knows what things to do better.
394
If you enjoyed today's video, make sure you subscribe to me, subscribe to Brian, and do not forget, one, two, three.
395
Stay relentless.
396
Peace!

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.
