Hello, guys.
Have you ever wondered...
Is practicing a workout?
Some of you may have saw...
In our recent Sibelius livestream performance
that it got quite sweaty.
And steamy.
Oh!
Yay!
Yay...
You did it.
Yay, we did it...
- Yes, and some people were commenting... - And hot.
That playing a concerto is like a full workout.
And it definitely feels like one, right?
- Oh, 100%. It feels like a workout before you even workout. - Like your whole body gets sore.
Before you even start,
'cause you know your heart rate is going up.
So we decided...
"Hey, let's see how much..."
"Calories is actually burned..."
- Mhm. - "Through violin playing."
- That's right. - So we got...
Some trackers.
- That's right. - Where we're going to track...
I don't really - I think it's by...
- Your heart rate and your kind of... - Movement.
- Movement. So, it's not perfect, but hey. - Yeah.
The best we've got.
As you all know, we love bubble tea on this channel.
So, we decided to figure out today...
How much violin practice is needed...
To burn off one bubble tea.
Let's see, a bubble tea calories.
Boba milk tea.
- Dude, you lied, you said 200 - - It said 212 before...
Don't you see? 212.
- 212. - Yeah.
212 calories to kilojoules.
So our goal is to hit 865 kilojoules.
Yeah.
And see who can practice...
- 865 kilojoules first? - The fastest. Yeah.
- All right, so here it is. - So guys, we have two...
Oh...
Now I have a feeling, brown sugar is like a lot worse.
This is brown sugar,
but no, ignore the fact, it's not brown sugar.
- It's just normal. Yes, guys, come on. - We don't have to be too precise here.
It's just for the fun and games of the video.
So, we got our bubble tea here.
Gonna drink some now.
But let's -
Aim is to see who can burn off...
865 kilojoules first...
- With violin playing. - Yes. Yes.
I have a feeling...
That this watch...
Tracks based on movement.
So it makes more sense...
To put it on my right hand.
'Cause it's gonna move more. The bow arm, right?
Take a sip.
Um, let's warm up a bit.
Nothing?!
What?! This is BS. Oh, do I have to move?
Oh, technically, I'm not moving much on my left hand.
Oh, that's not fair.
Oh, I know, I'm gonna practice full bows.
To move this more.
Let's try playing something faster.
Ah, nah.
Woah, 143, let's go!
I wonder if you vibrate lot, if you burn more calories, right, like...
Oh, so heavy.
Playing with the watch on the right hand.
194, let's go! Let's go, let's go!
Oi, Brett. Come over, let's compare.
You have to minus 69 from mine, 'cause I started on 69.
- Yeah. - But, what are you on now? I am 211.
- 211?! - Yeah.
- What the **** did you do? - Dude, I'm ****ing working out.
You know, I think it's movement.
- Yeah. - When you move the bow, you move more.
Yeah, that's why I put it on my right hand.
No! I put it on my left hand.
No! It's 66.
No!
You gotta understand the rules of the game.
Eddy: 221.
Dude, why is mine not going up?
It's still 69.
Ehehehe.
Why - But, but, but, it's not moving!
- Doesn't matter. - That's not fair. Okay, ready?
Loser has to run 30 minutes.
- As punishment. - All right. All right. Let's do it.
Nah, just kidding.
- Loser has to do 10 push-ups as a punishment. - Yeah.
All right.
Ooo.
Ah.
Oh!
Oh...
I'm gonna sprain my neck.
Oh...
Dude, I'm sweating.
Woah!
- 107, guys! - No! You're catching up.
So, you can actually burn off bubble tea.
- In like one practice session. - Yeah.
It's been uh...
Not even 10 minutes of practice...
And we burned off 1/4 of a bubble tea.
- Guys... - I wonder how inaccurate this is.
40 minutes of practice equals one bubble tea.
So, for every 40 minutes you do, you can have a bubble tea.
So for every 40 hours a day you practice, you can...
How would that work?
- 400! Oh. - You get 60!
Brett: Do we keep going?
Mhm.
Brett: All right, guys.
Ah, I know.
The perfect piece for working out.
Ah.
Ah!
This is the worst way to practice.
Urgh!
Oh, dude!
So bad to practice so fast,
when you haven't touched the piece for ages.
But, doing it for the calories!
I think I need to play something that's like crazy movement.
Uh...
Oh, this is Tchaikovsky cadenza.
Sorry, I haven't played in ages!
487.
Only?
All right, no, I'm going too slow. I gotta - I gotta...
Do something else.
Let's do the last page.
That was...
Bro...
The whole last page of Ysaÿe is only 11 kilojoules.
Yeah, what the hell, I can't burn this off!
Eddy: Oh my god.
Mmm.
I wonder if like,
actually jogging in place will make this different.
Oh, 553 now! Nice!
All right, that's dangerous, I can't do that.
I can't.
Oh, that was only 330. Seriously.
I wonder if I just do this...
662.
Come on, 200 left.
Burn the calories.
Ah.
Uh.
Oh, 803 minus 69. Almost there.
Oh, it's such a work out.
Oh...
910!
Only on 423.
I feel like it's getting harder and harder.
At the beginning, it was like so much easier, right?
Dude, I hit it!
980 minus 69 is...
920... 9... 9...
11?
- 911! Woo! - Siri: It's 920.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Dude...
I can't...
So painful.
All right, guys.
Dude, I burned like 920 calories.
- Dude, I only burned like 410. - Kilojoules.
All right.
All right, guys, that's it.
- You gotta do ten push-ups as punishment. - All right.
Let me burn more calories.
Yeah, make up for it.
I'll do eleven, one for the camera.
Eddy: Yeah.
One.
Two. Oh, burn the calories! Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
Ten.
For Sony. For SD card.
Eddy: Let's go.

- All right, this has proved... - You can -
That with less than one hour of practice, only 50 minutes.
You can burn off a whole bubble tea.
- Yes. Yeah. - I mean, you probably shouldn't practice like this.
- It will ruin your technique. - I was thinking, our technique and us shredding...
I was just trying to move.
- Yeah. - I was doing exaggerated movements.
Yeah.
Okay, that's it, guys.
Remember when you're practicing,
you're not just improving your violin or your instrument...
You're also...
- Getting your health sorted. - Yeah. It's good for your...
Body, your metabolism and respiratory and all that.
Exactly.
Apparently, Ling Ling's shredded.
I mean, wouldn't know, but...
Yeah, the rumors say Ling Ling has a ten pack.
No, Ling Ling has a 40 pack.
- Pccch! - He's like, dudududu! Every key, he'd be like, drrrr!
Dude, I'm sweaty.
- All right, guys. - All right, guys.
See you guys.
