Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Why Almost Everyone Is Wasting Their Time In The Gym

Jeremy Ethier put a familiar gym assumption to the test: if some training is good, surely more must be better? His only upload this week, "I Proved (Almost) Everyone Is Wasting Time In The Gym," has drawn about 2.2 million views.

The description lays out a ten-week experiment comparing three-day and six-day push/pull/legs schedules, alongside a third group that squeezed the six-day training volume into three full-body workouts. That last group makes the question more interesting: fewer trips to the gym do not necessarily mean less work. Ethier frames the experiment around muscle growth, training frequency and whether some sets stop earning their place in a workout.

Viewers are widening the conversation beyond muscle. Some point to the gym as time away from screens; others ask for a comparison between schedules with fewer weekly sessions, closer to what they can fit into everyday life. There is also a running joke that training less might have been scientific foresight rather than laziness.

The new experiment accounts for by far the most daily views among his prominent videos. Behind it, "How Running Completely Changes The Human Body" keeps drawing attention to his month of cardio alongside lifting and preparation for Hyrox. "It's Weird, But Destroyed Every Ab Exercise I Tested" supplies a more targeted experiment, with Ethier's description favoring face-away cable crunches and different options for beginners and advanced lifters.

At nearly eight million subscribers, Ethier sits between Jeff Nippard and THENX in audience size among these fitness peers. Nippard and blogilates both had substantial viewing weeks, while Ethier's own standout is a single upload asking how much gym time actually pays off.

What viewers say

Any hour at the gym is still better than an hour doomscrolling instead.

Thank god I didn’t train so much, I was ahead of the science all along

I wish the study compared 1-2 vs 3-4 workouts per week which is far more realistic because unlike fitness influencers, most people don’t have time to go the gym 6 times a week in the first place.
