@Andre Victorian oh i didnt think at all that they were related!!!! I just noticed the similarity!!! When i first came here and heard your flex hard it struck me but i couldn't remember where i heard something similar until i began listening to these motivational videos again. Trust me with these moves you absolutely need to "flex hard" and its so different than Goggins. I was just wondering. You both are so absolutely different in nature i honestly didnt think you would of listened to him. I was just curious.

@Andre Victorian 😂🤣😂🤣 too funny!!!! He is so hard core!!!! He is so "not nice" to his body. I didnt think you would even listen to him. He is motivational for those in the beginning of a journey if youve been lazy all your life but after that... thats about it. He is such a monster he breaks himself way too much but in my opinion it doesnt come from "self love" but the opposite. Anywho i was just wondering. I listened to him last night before going to sleep so i remembered it this morning lol

I wish you could be inside of my head to know how much this just blessed me AND came at the exact right time!!!! I hadnt been on here in a week or so because ive been feeling pretty down. Ive been chasing a certain aesthetic with lifting weights and looking strong but as i have said many times on here i only looked strong, i wasnt actually strong and now because of things i allowed i dont feel i even look strong at this moment. It made me sad so i stepped away from everything. 2 days ago i decided to stop with the "poor me" crap and get back on my game but in my own way. Normally i would look for a trainer or join a group class that i could just be apart of for a short time to regain my confidence but i didnt do that this time because im here inside of this skool and i finally feel i can do this by myself. Im in a weird space right now and at first i was going to just send you a message to tell you how much this meant to me but i decided against that because i want others to see and i just cant care who may think what i leave on here is weird or whatever. I cant concern myself with those things any longer. I too have a mirror i talk to. I actually have several and i talk to myself ALL THE TIME because its then i just cant lie to myself. I look at my eyes and really SEE me and i wont/cant lie to myself. I did not have the same things going on where i got so much praise but the opposite. I was always told im just not good enough for this or that and not straight out but in small ways and i would believe others before i believed myself. After i lost the 145lbs (and its more like 150 at this moment) and transformed my body i felt no one could tell me im not good enough because i did this all on my own without help with drugs or anything of that nature. Just pure hard work and changing my eating habits. My entire family is overweight except for me and my daughter now. My entire family!!!! I was the fat sister growing up and thought i would always play that role but im not in that role anymore. Anywho because ive been in this weird place of "becoming my best self" ive now realized it is not enough to merely look strong!!!!! I have to actually be strong and so once again ive changed up my routine to help me with this and im not rushing at all. Im taking my time and being kind to myself. I decided to become very very dedicated to doing these classes and not to focus on only building muscle by lifting weights. In fact i dont plan to lift any weights until i become stronger in the areas i actually need to build so i can safely lift weights so im only doing your classes and my own moves that ive figured will help me build the strength i actually need. So i may not "look strong" for awhile and thats ok. I decided this and then as usual you made this video that absolutely falls in line with how i have been feeling and thinking. Divine timing at its best. I appreciate how much you put inside of your classes and i appreciate how much you think of your students because even though i do not know you whatsoever at all your words always seem to come in handy and touch upon exactly what im needing to hear at the moment. This is how i knew right from the beginning these classes were for me. Ive never stayed apart of anything online for this long because i fall off so much and i dont like paying for things i dont use as often as i feel i should but your encouragement along with your classes have helped me so much and i know this is long and deep but i simply dont care. Its the truth and i appreciate you sharing your own truth. Thank you!!!!! Thank you so much. You have no idea how much these breakdowns help me.

Again as per usual this breakdown is speaking about these classes and how to think about them but this also assists me in my daily life and what i deal with on my job and how i should see the things im dealing with. I truly appreciate these breakdowns. I actually listened to this last night and then again right now and im glad i did. Im dealing with some things that this is speaking to me about and i have gotten some clarity on those things. It takes time and consistency to become your best self and you cant cheat this at all. Thanks so much again!!!

@Andre Victorian found it thanks so much!!

@Andre Victorian 😂🤣😂🤣 will do!!! Lol

@Andre Victorian i gave up so quickly smh. Thank you very much. I did begin the hips of fury i figured those movements may help but whew!!!!!!! WHEW!!!!!! Its challenging and great in the best way. Ok, thanks so much for the answer!!

So the first time i did this i could not sit on my heels at all not even using yoga blocks but i did like you suggested and just did what i could. I am restarting this series to go along with pikes peak and i initially skipped this one because of the sitting on heels but i tried this morning using yoga blocks and it was a success!!!!! My ankle omg its on fire now but i was able to complete it. Im super happy about this!!! I didnt feel my SI joint though and i believe thats a positional thing but i will just keep doing these and see how far i get. At least i could do it!!! Very impressive! Ok bout to do pikes peak!!!! 😁
