#9 Pain. The Good kind.
Pain. I felt surged through my quads, hamstrings, hips, glutes, lower back, abs and traps as I slowly tried to stand back up with an iron bar loaded with weights balanced on my upper back. It took me roughly 5-6 seconds to squat down and stand back up again. Now that’s pretty fucking long for a single movement, something that could’ve been done in probably less that 1 and a half...
Pkgm : yeah true. Did you know he was poked in the eye? he had all 5 fingers thrusted in his face by shields. I wouldn’t be too hard on him for winning like so, he had alot to lose and a bad eye didnt make it easier. If only GSP went all out and finish…
Mtnman92 : amen to that brother. I dont know if im now expecting him to push, or more so hoping. Im hoping he’d be...

rippedfuel asked: awesome response! I did mean dont be her sparring partner in terms of 'if you're not a martial artist' but I guess I left that out. I have found that for me, it takes a certain type of male that I can be in a relationship with and fight with. Fortunately I've found that now but before I was faced with a male who didnt like me beating him, or hitting him, and eventually he...

rippedfuel:
(I’m not trying to say that MA Girls are better, just different and I was inspired by that post. lol)
Date a girl who does Martial Arts. A girl who does Martial arts chooses to face the world rather then let it take over her. She will stand proudly, with an air of confidence about her. She will…

#8 Building A Badass Superhero Body
So my semester break is coming to an end. That means I’ve got 14+ weeks of uni to go to, come Monday. That also means I’ve got 14+ weeks of free (most times) access to the university gym. Time to crank it up and go on a lean mass gain program!
So this is the program I’ve written for myself which I plan to follow for 14 solid weeks. I’ve shown it to a number of successful...
New layout. yay or nay?
Honestly I liked the previous one better. Plain, simple, yet bold. But even for me it was hard to navigate around. Damnit I added the ask feature and STILL couldn’t find it.
Hope you guys like this one better.

This is a beautifully written passage. In fact his whole blog (although new) is very well written. For anyone who has ever stood under the iron, tried to lose weight, hell tried to change something about themselves. Go to this blog, start from the bottom and read.
In respect to this passage i feel the same way, i’ve been lifting for three years, and have been dreaming of MMA for about 5. I...

Quoted For Truth.
“Those days that you just wanna quit. Those days that you think well I’ve already been fat might as well stay fat. Those days that you see a bag of Doritos and wanna open them up and devour those 300 calories in less than 3 minutes. Those days that you think your goal is too far away and it’ll take forever to get there. Those days are the days. The days you can brag about...

#2 Fitness : Body, Mind and Heart of a Hero.
I stumbled upon the video in the previous post a few hours ago from a forum i frequent. It’s a bodybuilding forum, so you’d find anything and everything about taking your body to the next level, be it aesthetics, strength, speed, conditioning. In before anyone even THINKS steroids, no. No steroids, purely natural methods of self improvement. There IS a section for steroid users, but...

#1 Facing Insecurities
No, this post is not about facing your own insecurities. Heroes have insecurities. Really, they don’t.
Insecure people are abundant in our daily lives. Insecure people are :
Not happy with themselves
Not happy with their lives
Wishing they were someone else
Blaming on others for their incapability
Blind of their own faults
Quick to judge others, yet never pass judgement on...

A Hero
We all want to be this, to be that, to be faster, stronger, smarter, in short, to be better. At some point though, we fall back. Some get up, some don’t. This is for those who do.
Hero pronounced as (hḗrōs).
Dictionary Definition : a person, who is admired for their courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.
My Definition : a person who relentlessly strives...

Background Story
I was inspired to start this blog after reading another well known blog. The author also themed his blog around ‘Hero’ or ‘Becoming a hero’ etc. Some may feel this to be an infringement, but hear me out. I felt connected and inspired with the concept of being a hero, which is a subjective topic, therefore I think it’s not wrong for me to theme my blog like so since it...
