Sup guys. Its been a hard fuckin couple of months. My dad, who was also my best friend passed away. It has taken a serious toll on my mind, and body. My chest has been hurting for months. Causing anxiety, and fear. And under all that and the sadness theres this anger. This anger at my dad for leaving me so soon, this anger towards the pain, and this anger at myself. I haven't felt mind to muscle connection, or drive. I've still been training and eating, but I just haven't had any passion. I've always been for the animal brand and lifestyle. No bullshit supplements, no bullshit athletes, and no bullshit in general. So I rewatched about every single videos you guys put out. It put the anger and the fear into a whole new perspective, so I can use it for fuel. You guys have no idea how much all of this shit has helped me. Every single one of you bodybuilders, powerlifters, brand reps, gym rats. You're all a blessing.

Sorry to hear about your father. Glad you've got your head back in the game. Stay strong, brother.

Honor him. Remember him. Dedicate your best to him. The reasons why are not to be answered now. Have comfort in knowing you will meet again. Be strong Youngblood, one breath at a time.

I know how you feel, my dad passed away about 6 years ago. The first year is the hardest, although the pain never completely subsides, you become a stronger person because of it. Stay strong.

Thanks so much guys.
My dad passed away on 4/28, and even though we were never close I went to see him for his last few days. I was getting in a lift the morning after I got into town at the hotel gym and lost my shit...was tearing up between sets of pullups and rows, and just going nuts with my sets. Not sure what happened that day, but the pain and grief of the situation has really been fueling me since. Every time I lift now I think about fulfilling my personal potential that he wasted away himself, and it's helped me take my shit to the next level here lately.
Losing loved ones is tough, for sure, but let whatever's eating at you come out when you hit the iron. People might look at you funny, but fuck them anyways...they wouldn't understand if you explained it.

Know that you are his legacy. Live accordingly. Pay him tribute in everything you do by pursuing your passions relentlessly, by living fully and without regret, and by being a good person.
Do not take today for granted.
Peace, G

Whenever G cares tom comment on any subject like this, you could pretty much just close the thread down and leave it as it is.
He always hits it right on. No more comments needed.
Best wishes, YoungHiga! Take G´s words to heart.

Very sorry to hear about the passing of your father. Loss is hard in every sense of the word. Stay strong and keep training and eating brother! Your passion will come back in due time.
