Jeremy Either, a young Canadian fitness influencer, creates a video to thank his subscribers upon reaching 1 million subscribers. Jeremy talks about how he was involved in sports at a young age and how this led to him developing a passion for fitness. He explains that when his dad first brought him to the gym around the age of 14 or 15, he was very insecure about his extremely skinny physique. Over the course of a few years of working out, Either learned to build muscle mass. He made countless mistakes following “bro-science” and admits that he could have saved so much time and prevented injuries if he had followed a better approach. After learning from all of his mistakes and receiving certifications including the National Academy of Sports Medicine Certification at 18, he became very interested in helping others make progress and avoid the same mistakes that he made.
He started out working as a trainer for various gyms and he received his Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology at Simon Fraser University. In college, Jeremy explains that his passion for training and coaching really took off . He developed a love for learning about nutrition, rehabilitation, and biomechanics. In 2014, he began putting out some content on Instagram for the first time and grew to a decent size following despite his average to below average quality content. During this time he also started blog writing for big fitness brands including EliteFTSand Boxrox. He admits that when he first started putting out YouTube videos he was experimenting and admits that his videos were awkward and laughable, at least to him now. But his channel took off and his videos kept improving as his audience grew. His videos were unique in that he focused on science based fitness and explaining the “why” reasons for the best approaches to training. Near the end of the video, Jeremy states that while his channel has seen great success he has also experienced many ups and downs. He goes on to to say that the stress he has experienced he doesn’t share or talk about, but that seeing the transformations of others continues to motivate and encourage him to keep going. Today, Jeremy Either’s channel channel is still growing and over 4 million subscribers.
As a subscriber to Jeremy Either, I can bear witness to the fact that his content is different than that of other youtubers. He is very precise with his information and backs everything with science. He does not merely tell you how to train like so many other fitness influencers. Instead, he tells you how to train and why. Instead of rambling on and on, he talks to straight facts and gets to the point. As someone who is serious about fitness and health, Jeremy Either has one of the best fitness channels on YouTube and I look forward to seeing more of his content.

I enjoyed reading your post! I think Jeremy has a very compelling story, and I appreciate how he’s willing to share his fitness struggles. I also think that Jeremy’s workout “why’s” are a great way to help people who are just beginning their fitness journey.
