One that understands the dedication, the lifting jokes and who can spot out stupid gym shit with me. Someone to eat massive meals with after training and who’ll spot me on bench. Where art thou friend?

Nerdy Healthy Things: Reading some of these asks on this website is horrifying
“I just ate a granola bar. Is that okay?”
“Carbs make you fat so…”
“Is eating one square of chocolate after dinner tonight okay?”
“How long on the treadmill does it take to burn x calories?”
“I’m eating 1200 calories a day and running for 45 minutes on the treadmill. Will I lose weight?”

I just love how he seems so happy too! I dont waant to get bitter as i age.Odd E. Haugen

Birthplace: Tingvoll, Norway
Height: 6’4”/ 193 cm
Weight: 295 lbs./ 134 kgsOdd was crowned the Strongest Man in America at the 1999 AFSA USA Strongman Champinoship in Las Vegas, NV. Odd was Hawaii’s Strongest Man in 2000, 2001,and 2003.
He is 61 years old! He’s flipping tractor tires, deadlifting cars, lifting 300+ pound stones, dragging 500+ pound anchors, and training harder than most 20 year old young men. Oh yeah, he was also running a business and raising a family. Gosh darn, age is not damn barrier!
I love stuff like this! Such an inspiration.

a reminder:
Recovery is not something you can get cocky about. You may have been fine for years, but unhealthy thoughts & behaviors are insidious - they will creep in the back door when you aren’t looking. Do not let this discourage you. Use it as motivation to keep making your health a priority every single day. This is worth fighting for.
I had a dream about having really well-defined hamstrings..
I woke up simultaneously sad and motivated.
EAT LIKE YOU LOVE YOURSELF.

It was only after I hit rock bottom did I become my greatest.
my dad sent me this video tonight and i thought i’d share it here. a very inspirational video showing that the only limits in your life are the ones that you set on yourself.
