Awesome motivational video. These rules can be applied to a lot of different things.

Aye, Arnold is a favourite round here.

Post: #3

Arnold is a great role model for men.

Love the bits about sleeping 6 hours. I never understood why people needs to sleep more than that.

I love Arnold's accent.

That speech is like condensing "Pumping Iron" into 5 minutes.

This man's a legend.

Because of this video, I have added, "Shake Arnold Schwarzenegger's hand" to my bucket list.

"Who do you want to be"
"Don't be afraid to fail"
"No pain no gain"

I could live by this

Definitely agreed. Would be a good idea for an article on ROK.

I think myself and Roosh have promoted enough of Arnold to last a lifetime, that said, there can never be enough Arnie promotion. I've just seen The Last Stand... There's nothing cooler than seeing Arnie shooting guns whilst saying one-liners!

Roosh reviewed his autobiography back in August...

Quote:From the very first page, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s autobiography makes you want to hit the gym. Reading the amount of work this man put into being the world’s best bodybuilder will make you want to prove your own worth by lifting some heavy-ass weight. I was on a little break from the gym because I was vacationing on an island (a sound excuse, I figured), but within a couple days of cracking open the book I found a hotel with a dinky gym where I could lift. It’s one of the most motivating fitness books I’ve read.

The first half of the book is a first-hand account of what it really takes to be at top of your field, with all the roadblocks, vultures, and haters that come along with it. Within these pages lies the best feature of the book: Arnold’s belief system. You find out the thoughts that have led to his incredible success in body building, acting, and politics. Even if your current goal isn’t related to those, they will bitch slap you upside the head and get you moving. Arnold’s inspiring attitude makes him more American than Austrian, so it’s no surprise that he loved the United States.

He also included some choice quotes from the book:

Quote:“I could tell if a girl was repelled by my size. And when I’d catch her looking at me in disbelief I would casually raise my arm, flex my bicep, and watch her cringe. It was always good for a laugh.”

You probably already know that Arnold was a ladies man. He viewed them as distractions to his goals, primarily serving as objects for his sexual pleasure. He relaxed that stance in his later years but a look into how he fathered his maid’s child while married to Maria Shriver shows that he wasn’t entirely domesticated. Players will wink and nod at a few passages of the book that concern how he approached women and sex.

“Normal people can be happy with a regular life. I was different. I felt there was more to life than just plodding through an average existence.”

The second half of the book gives basic nutrition and body building advice that was of course less interesting and more technical. It did cause me to make a couple tweaks to my lifting program that seem to have a positive benefit, such as taking shorter rests between sets (45 seconds instead of 120 seconds).

Ultimately this short book was a captivating story of how the fruits of a man’s labor, combined with the right beliefs, can help you achieve what you set out to do. I highly recommend it.

“Bodybuilding changed me entirely. I think I would be a different person now if I’d never trained, if I’d just worked somewhere. It gave me confidence and pride and an unlimited positive attitude. I can apply my success to everything.”

Never have enough Arnie. I've got his recent autobio, but I'm going to buy the one Roosh reviewed on Monday. For the lifting advice too.
