Fitness for Nerds

[antarcticolors]

I like the tights.

[LouBeeC]

I am Bruce Wayne.

[92Crickett]

I just watched this, and I was trying so hard not to laugh because my roommate is trying to sleep, but then the dodge/deflect part came up. I haven't laughed that hard in a while.

[GreaterBookWyrm]

Am I the only one who is impressed that he knows 32 numbers of Pi off the top of his head?

[hattchixx]

@GreaterBookWyrm my best friend has memorized 89 digits...

[Solloria]

@GreaterBookWyrm You counted?

[youngliterati]

the yeti must've been so proud of her husband in this moment.

[xadele95]

John...are you wearing The Yeti's tights???

[RENTIKKI]

Henry is going to hate is father when he sees this

[ginarocks75]

@RENTIKKI Or love him even more! I know if my father did this, I'd love him more than I already do.

[TheRedSkylark]

In which John has a heart attack...

[lolgirl607]

reasons why I refuse to buy an e-Reader #234: I won't be able to do the nerdy workout.

[Nocturnavis]

I almost can't believe this man wrote the most beautiful book I've ever read.

[chexmixultimate]

I hope you kept that sweatshirt for all of eternity. It was perfect for this punishment. The moose on the front even had legwarmers and a sweat band on!

[thisisntchristine]

Will Grayson, Will Grayson in your pants. Oh yeah xD

[SchoHobbes]

Ladies and Gentlemen, New York Times Bestselling Author John Green. lol

[mthsbandrocks]

No one can catch the motherfucking fox. Don't worry about the bully.

[bubble992]

One of my books was TFiOS. Can't believe i just did this in my room at Uni. There are people here that could've walked in!

[Tcr810XP]

how did the bully catch you while you're wearing the fox hat? no one catches the fox, not even the pigs!!!!!!!!!

[poweredbypeace]

oh those legs.

[cynthiahorna]

I started english class with Harry Potter 7 on one hand, and Brisingr on the other... unfortunately I finished with The Hunger Games and The Great Gatsby...

Still not strong enough...

[theEumenides]

The year I didn't have internet, I missed so many great things. This is definitely in the top 3.

[greenteamangomochi]

I laugh every time I watch this. It just gets better every time!

[otakubabe555]

This shall forever be what I go to when I feel like I'm being too lazy, but I still want to feel like I'm doing something nerdy.

[ravencarslyle]

Lol. What. The. Hell.

It is videos like this that make me forget that John is an award winning author, but good lord does he have a great sense of humor. :)

[pbjellybeanful]

John, are you REALLY asking Sarah "why is this funny?"

[lepracaun93]

One day, Henry will see this. It will be glorious.

[hatguy24]

John Green in green tights, shorts and a tiny sweater working out is one of the most traumatizing things I've seen.

[cadisaurusrex]

Is strength a synonym for pain? Because I definitely feel that.

[mthsbandrocks]

I have seen both of the Green brothers in tights. I know I should be disturbed, but I'm not.

[tila130]

@mthsbandrocks hahaha me too!

[jaymeeboh]

I can't believe the Yeti filmed all this without attempting to jump his bones at least 20 times. I mean, those tights, that belly shirt, the deflect move....

[TheFullRunThrough]

I don't think John was giving motivational talks to us. I believe they were to keep himself from being punished for not making this video.

[Minano]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

[ThatWeirdo04]

This is going to be my new workout routine :)

[GreenRiceProd1995]

The Yeti speaks! :)

[KaylaElizabethhBro]

the headband reminds me of Takumi .

[bekahbooks]

I'm going to start greeting people like that because that was awesome.

[DoYouHaveSnazzyPants]

And Willy is just there chilling while John works out. lol

[waterlikelove]

I like WIlly's total confusion.

[bayace92]

How is Sarah watching that without laughing and holding the camera so steady?

[mystrylvr86]

Epic.

[SamxRxI]

aaaaaaaaaaand RUNFROMTHEBULLY RUNFROMTHEBULLY RUNFROMTHEBULLY RUNFROMTHEBULLY XD XD XD

[firefly2552025]

Wonder how much we could learn if we had instructors like John teaching PE classes.

[wishing2fly]

oh. my. god.

[ArinamiXStar]

I'm totally going to start doing this on a daily basis.... minus the terrible outfit.

[KayEeEss]

Ya'know, I would feel much better about 'fitness classes' if the instructor was struggling just as much as I am.

I might have found a solution to this.

[Bamboozle4]

My new years resolution was to exercise daily. Thanks for helping me get fit, John. Though I should get a mat or something for the floor exercises...

[cmasino]

i went from Jinxy to this video... -.-' FAIL! sorry john, i dont mean to offend, i was just working my other muscles!

[tayalexandraxo]

If I ever meet John I'm going to Over-Hello him.

[LifesBadHabit]

dodge and deflect im crying with laughter (:

[wang78739]

willy is sitting there like omg who is this guy

[cupcakes1348]

is he wearing tights?

[minimoon314]

@cupcakes1348 I think that was John's idea of 'leg warmers' XD

[godessshannon]

This will never fail to make me laugh xD <3

[Gee1078]

I got tired just watching that. Thank god I didn't attempt it, I might have pulled something...

[Wellhereitgoes]

"If it doesn't hurt your books aren't big enough."

This should be a T-shirt.

[Sleepover137]

Am I the only one who got up and joined John?

[princessbloodredrose]

@Sleepover137 no i did 2 twice

[Sleepover137]

@princessbloodredrose I'm going to do this everyday from now on XD Maybe it does something XD

[cynthiayl12]

@Sleepover137 Yeah, I do this everyday.

[Sleepover137]

@cynthiayl12 does it work?

[cynthiayl12]

@Sleepover137 Ehh...the situps obviously work, and if you do enough of running from the bully and the Konami code, it'll help, especially if you do a legit squat during the "down" part of the Konami code.

[ImaFiringMaLazer]

That doesn't explain the tits.

[TheInspirationExpert]

I really wish there was a reaction video of John watching this for the first time.

[TheInspirationExpert]

How the HELL did the Yeti keep the camera steady? I would have dropped the camera 30 seconds in and rolled on the floor laughing.

[ExterminateObliviate]

I remember this was the first Vlogbrothers video I had ever seen. I saw it at my friend's house, where my other friend suggested we watch it and do the workout with John.

[zoemew]

I think Sarah is laughing because she's thinking "I married this crazy man." ^_^

[qwrites]

I think I may need to start doing this daily.

[dannerzme]

At 3:19 Willie's like, "Wha, wha, what the heck are you doing? Get back in your chair."

At 5:56 Sarah's like, "I really did marry a nerd."

[Hollyslide]

I stand in solidarity with every nerd who has ever completed that. However, I am a ballet dancer, so I'm very grateful that that wasn't so much of an issue for me. Keep dancing, and DFTBA!

[Quintinia]

...so I just did this workout, and because I'm a nerd who doesn't move around a lot, it was rather challenging.

[TammiBloo]

@theoriginalsmiley1 Oh man, I've seen him with that headband so many times and Looking for Alaska is one of my favorite books and I never put those two things together. XD That IS cool.

[oh9ah6]

That thing about calling on the smart kids answering questions is so true <3

[TheWittyChappy]

John tried to do fitness but his Willie got in the way.

*I'm sorry*

[nightfire734]

isn't it up, down, up, down, A, B, A, B, start, select?

[alliwicious1]

He looks like Peter Pan, Brittany Spears, and Mr. Fox ALL IN ONE!

[theoriginalsmiley1]

oh my god that's the head band Tamika (i think that's how you spell it) wears in looking for Alaska! i feel so cool knowing that

[GluedWallflower]

@theoriginalsmiley1 Takumi!

[theoriginalsmiley1]

@GluedWallflower sorry didnt fell like getting up and getting the book to check the spelling opps! tehe

[rethinkOURreality]

Aww, thank you for the licks!

Also, I know why Sarah laughed. She was thinking, "What did I get myself into this time?", lol.

[ayyKatx]

there should be a pun about pi in a work-out video, but it's just too much.

[livelovelaughdance91]

dodge, DEFLECT!

dodge... DEFLECT!

[RiskyBrothers]

willie's just looking at john like:i think you're trying to pet me

You're doing it wrong

[lyana57]

new daily workout video.. YES!

[pigscanfly522]

That's a lot of pi.

[NinjaWieldingLimes]

I feel like there should have been some kind of '80s music going on in the background for this video.

[ChelsieOliviaa]

OH MY GOD.

He was doing the developer's code.

How did I not detect this until he said "ba start"?

NERDz!

[ChelsieOliviaa]

Lmfao.

Just.

Oh my gosh.

Lmfao.

[nevershoutcarlyy]

aw i thought no one could catch the motherfucking fox... :(

[Monicah177]

HOLY CRAP.

For months I thought the FAQ video was the first one of yours I had ever seen. But I was wrong. Within the week that it came out one of my friends posted this video on facebook and we used to reference it and make fun of the guy from the video all the time. I can't believe it was YOU the whole time! I just don't even.......

[smurphgirl131]

I hope Henry watches this.

[Thisismyusername1010]

It's just sad when you can't do as many sit-ups as a man who has an entire Facebook group dedicated to his fatness (and by you I mean I).

[Kyuubiawsome]

SHINRA SQUATS !!!!!!!!!

[Silmirel]

aw Willy he is just like: what?!

[shortestwh0vian]

looking good!

[IlyTheVampire]

I still have a crush on John (even after this video)

This is so not normal. XD

[webkinzgirl13]

I forgot John had legs...

[Epocseer]

@webkinzgirl13 what are legs??

[uselessjay]

I gave up after the books. :--(

[LauraDaysSmiles]

Henry is going to be so proud of his dad watching this video LOL xD

[KoolThing14]

All I can say is: Henry. Years later. Embarrassment. And eventually pride.

[stephiiee]

OFFICIALLY THE BEST VLOGBROTHERS VIDEO I HAVE SEEN SO FAR. YOU MADE ME LOL SO HARD!!

[TheAlaPal]

This was my first vlgbrothers video and I was VERY confused by it.

[defectivehearts]

After Thanksgiving dinner work out. YES!

[MightyRubble]

If you like this then you should check out the fatbuddhafitness channel, much funnier and genuine workouts!

[MrFredthelemur]

6:57 I think I peed myself...

[MrFredthelemur]

Yeti: Who did I marry?

[rieily527]

That is my new fighting style "Dodge and Deflect."

[puplov2425]

when the yeti laughs, i lose it

[changelingchild1]

This is my new daily workout!

[mavaroe]

I am never going to forget the konami code again!

[DoctorKuehl]

I did the Bruce Wayne cape thing with Paper Towns and King Arthur and His Knights of The Round Table...I'm a wimp...

[dealingamnesia]

Hey Henry? Are you old enough to be watching Youtube yet? You see that guy there? The one with the fox headband and the cutoof sweater?

Yeah.  That's your dad.

[sarahcupcake12]

@dealingamnesia *His awesome dad.:)

[karinefizzy]

I'm watching this at school and thinking about how hilariuos it would be if I just stood up and did this :P

[mushmallow1000]

John i'm not gonna lie I thought you were wearing a skirt for the first half of this video

[thespianwaffles]

He forgot 'select' in the Konami Code.

[Grassifyable]

@thespianwaffles There's no select in the Konami Code. Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start.

[thestickmann1]

I just did this. I had band practise so I had to skip math class.

[applecroft17]

Some HAS to GIF this an put it on Tumblr.

[thewardrobemonster]

this is the most hilarious video i've ever seen on the internet

[amorithelnania]

This is my favorite vlogbrothers video. Not because how funny it is, but because it came out on an important day in my life. It reminds me of the day my fiancee moved in with me. He came from Cali to the east coast of Canada. <3 I love how I can pinpoint points in my life with these videos.

[Friends4LIfe121995]

i love your counting....:)

[unreasonablyawkward]

I WILL NEVER BREATHE AGAIN.

partly because the video is so damn funny, and partly because I'm tired out from all that exercise...

[TB0art]

Doing this to keep up with the energy during NaNo! And it's WORKING!

[nolanborn510]

Catfish always drink alcoholic ether if begged, for every catfish enjoys heightened intoxication; gross indulgence can be calamitous, however; duly, garfish babysit for dirty catfish children, helping catfish babies get instructional education just because garfish get delight assisting infants’ growth and famously inspire confidence in immature catfish, giving experience (and joy even)...

[nolanborn510]

however, blowfish jeer insightful garfish, disparaging inappropriately, doing damage, even insulting benevolent, charming, jovial garfish, hurting and frustrating deeply;joy fades but hurt feelings bring just grief; inevitable irritation hastens feeling blue; however, jovial children declare happiness, blowfishes’ evil causes dejection, blues; accordingly, always glorift jolly, friendly garfish

[Friends4LIfe121995]

@nolanborn510 what???? im so confused

[nolanborn510]

@Friends4LIfe121995 It's from John's second book Abundance of Katherines in which the main character, Colin, memorized the frist 99 digits of Pi by developing the sentence in question. The first letter of each word corresponds with a digit of pi (a= 1 b=2 Etc. and j=0)

I was reminded of it when John was reciting Pi.

[wishthiswerewitty]

Seriously?! You couldn't have stop three digits of pi earlier? I was so close to knowing all of it!

[AyashiKedo]

..You should do another one of these.

[SuperChalek]

Day-um. This man knows a lot of Pi. Also, I'm formally recommending this as a work out to be used in actual gym class.

[Moggiepillar]

Sometimes I find myself wishing John were related to me. He'd be my favorite uncle!

[LifeIsMiraculous]

This room is a lot bigger than I originally thought...:L

[SuperAngusk]

Im watching this while eating pizza :)

[CurlyBeardJones]

Is it weird that I use this as my actual exercise routine now?

[awkwardfour]

Was this the move in The Beckoning of Lovely?

[superevilcharliebot]

tehhehhh(:i love how willy is just watching john throughout this whole video and you can see by thelook on his face, he's thinking "errm, john? joohhhnn?! j-john, w-what are you doing john?erm, you look like a silly person, please. stop. your embarrassing me in front of the nerd fighters." this. is my new work out. FTL THATS A GOOD WORK OUT.

[Regenschein123]

Nerdfighters used to read and play videogames after their homework... now they do fitness.

[MashaSobaka]

The (probably unintentional) belly shirt made me crack up very, very loudly.

[awkwardfour]

@MashaSobaka It was actually specified by Hank that his shirt be a belly shirt XD

[nidarnairb]

I do the math except I use the pythagorean therum...

[LiamsMyName]

I think with that belly hanging out the fox could get caught without even making it to the forest :-D. Just joking, I know it's the shirt :)

[atimeforwriting]

Best outfit ever!

[HogwartsNerdfighter]

i like hows hes reading the numbers off of his laptop Oh john, your such a nerd <3

[XxiloveGWxX]

You've got great legs John

[iWish09]

I did that "dodge-and-deflect" thing to my brother. He calls me a nerd now.

[izziiha]

She laughs slightly when Willy licks him :)

[sweetlikedaim]

The Yeti should get an award for not laughing. She's so strong. :D

[AkasunanoNatalie]

I put this towards my gym hours XD

[smartguy7531]

wille at 0:27

[blucheeze4u]

My day just went from horrible to almost-falling-out-of-my-chair laughing. I love re-watching old vlogbrothers videos :)

[AraDibs]

This may quite possibly be the greatest thing I have ever seen.

[MinecraftDiaries]

Anyone notice.... this is not a whole 10 min. ITS 9:24 D:

[MEG4nerd]

"Will Greyson Will Greyson...In your pants" has a whole new meaning.....

[channyandseddiefan]

Keep on dancin'.

[foreverwithoutyou]

... I attempted to do the arm stretched while sitting at my desk, only to remember I ahve a loft bed with my desk under it. My hand now hurts. That's it, no more fitness D:

[gorsloth1]

will grayson will grayson... in your pants?

[YourNerdyVlogger]

Watching as I eat a spoonful of Nutella.

[purplecows234]

When he started the second set of sit-ups, I seriously expected him to start listing off the numbers of e.

[renorhino156]

I wonder who he borrowed the tights from.

[MaddieJane]

i just did this, i'm literally panting right now that destroyed me

[lizziethecharmander]

Watching this whilst giggling whilst lying in bed eating cookies.

[deathnotefan386]

next step, sign 150,000 books...

[jellybelly98rox]

Is it bad that I knew all those digits of pi? Oh, wait it's not. I'm in nerdfighteria right now :P I knew up to the 101st in 5th grade though, right now i only remember as far as John did.

[glic6616]

"If it doesn't hurt, your books aren't big enough."

Orrrr your arm muscles aren't small enough..

[MissiCupcake553]

Willie: "*sniffs feet* You are perspiring."

[Magstarcutie]

Remind me to watch this later on my computer in my room so people don't walk in and think I'm insane.

[zombiecamelzzz]

do you get in shape quicker with a fox on your head and a small sweatshirt?

[polykuromu]

My favourite part was the Konami code bit because it looks like it could be a dance routine.

[sloopyrhinosniffer]

I like how i never questioned the fox on his head.

[witchmusic]

This video shows just how much John loves Nerdfighteria.

[fishswishroxz]

i was doing the routine with john and when he got to "the its a me mario" bit i wacked my hand really hard cause of course i left my books from the book lifting bit beside my laptop

[halohali32]

just did this with John for the first time! I am now implementing it into my daily routine ^-^

[amber342342]

I had to close the blinds in order to do this, but I did it!

[puppysfurme]

This is like the 5th time I've watched this video, but the first time I actually did it with you. I must say, it's a surprisingly good workout.
