Jeremy Ethier's channel stands at eight million subscribers after another week of growth, but Dennis is supplying the more relatable milestone: getting through the next exercise.
In "It's Tough, But Burns Fat 4x Faster Than 10K Steps/Day", Jeremy, Melody and Dennis compare everyday walking with alternatives ranging from a mini trampoline to sprint intervals. Respiratory-analysis masks accompany them through the tests. Dennis struggles with the air squats; Melody discovers that a high calorie-burn score doesn't necessarily make a workout her favorite.
The video was Jeremy's only new upload this week and has reached roughly 3.6 million views. Beneath it, viewers keep returning to Dennis as the necessary everyday participant alongside the fitness host. Others pick up the experiment's eventual conclusion: consistency matters more than choosing whichever exercise produces the most impressive result on a chart.
There is a useful gadget detour, too. Jeremy's vibration-plate test records little extra calorie expenditure compared with standing still. By the end, his recommendations depend on the person, not simply the highest reading.
Across the channel, subscribers increased over the week, although daily views are currently a little below their usual level. Jeff Nippard recorded a similar weekly subscriber gain and a slightly larger weekly view total; Jesse James West had a bigger week of subscriber growth.
Jeremy's busiest video right now is actually the previous week's "I Gave Him Fake Steroids For 100 Days". The cardio experiment follows it, while his months-old tendon-training guide continues drawing viewers, giving the catalog a longer life than the latest workout test alone.

Dennis is an extremely necessary part of this, because he represents the rest of us mortals.

I love Dennis. He represents so many ordinary people that hates anything about exercise. Definitely a necessary participant!
@ReneeMichelle_See it on YouTubeThe 91 yr old was the best support for the 10k. So glad he was included. Many of the 10,000 steps are just part of your day and it's good for your soul.
