Session of Prosperity and Harmony

  1. Deadlifts without straps of belt in order to work on my weaknesses which are the grip and the mid-section. When I go heavier I use both belt and straps in order to progress. However, once in a while I go without to stimulate the muscles that aren’t usually trained.
  2. The irregular chins are for the grip, having a strong grip is always good, no least in regards to martial arts.
  3. Regular chins, still without straps, this is also to work the forearms and the grip a bit more!
  4. High repetitions on the incline dumbbell-press, notice how I try to get a good depth and stretch in the movement, something I do not get when only doing benchpress. Furthermore I am rather weak when doing high repetitions, something I intend to progress in as of the coming time. Lighter, full range of motion dumbbell-presses are an excellent companion to heavy benchpress as they complement each other!
  5. Just playing around with the boxing a bit! The hands were never my strong suit so I am trying to work on that aspect a bit as well!
  6. Front kicks both in order to work on the technique but also to regain some flexibility in the front of the legs. I will make a separate video regarding my mobility work later on!
  7. The posing is from a lovely hike that I commenced with my beloved girl! One of my favourite things to do!

  2. Greetings from Australia! I was just thinking yesterday of asking what you did for mobility. Very keen to hear your view on whether we all need to be ‘Supple Leopards’ or not.

      • Hey brother, here are the last 2, if they interest you, we should collaborate some time. We’re both body builders, and I think we’re pushing a similar message.

The MMA Fight of Glory ⚜️ (another thank you post, because being grateful is important). I am pleased to say that I had my first MMA fight a few days ago at Kampf der Nibelungen 🇩🇪. I want to take this opportunity to aim a massive thank you to several individuals. First and foremost to my opponent who definitely came to fight and brought the pressure. I also want to aim a thank you to my Mournival who came with me and supported me greatly. I also want to thank my Legion in Sweden for the great thumos and training this year since my return 🇸🇪. Moreover, I want to thank Team Cavemen in Ireland (I miss you lads a lot 🇮🇪💚). I want to thank my brother Alexander for all the wrestling growing up (and for a great many other things). I want to thank Jonas for being with me this last year and improving my game significantly. Furthermore, I want to aim another massive thank you to everyone who has had faith in me over these last years, especially since the stakes has increased and since we passed the point of no return. Lastly, I want to say that a large part (except for the glory of course) of training hard for this and participating in it was to encourage those who adhere to my wisdom to train hard in the Temple of Iron and to also train MMA. So if you are hesitant to join a gym; remember that I am with you in spirit! #legiogloria Strength and Honour The Lion "Let him that would move the world first move himself." - Socrates Helios is pleased with our thumos and decided to bless us with an additional day of Summer 😊☀️🇩🇪 I am extremely happy 😊 I just won my first MMA-fight (first round submission). I want to aim a massive thank you to everyone who has had faith in me. I also want to aim massive thank you to the glorious men with me; Dan, Magnus, Anton and Jonas (who did an absolutely perfect job as my coach tonight), seriously amazing support. I will obtain some glorious footage from the organisers in the week (or hopefully tomorrow) 😊, so stay tuned for that. #legiogloria "Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow." - Marcus Tullius Cicero Candid shots are always epic 😊 📷 Ty m8 @survivethejive
