Is Online Coaching Worth It?
Posted on February 17, 2016
If you are reading through my Online Coaching page you are probably wondering if the investment is worth it or not. Since it is a good question I thought to write this article to clarify a few things that might be good to know before deciding upon any of the services.
There are two factors that I deem very important for a successful client. First of all that you are committed, that you are ready to adhere to the plan as well as possible. I am not saying that you have failed utterly should you miss a session or a week, things like that happen. What I mean is that you should, if nothing unpredicted (sickness etc) comes in between be fully willing to train the amount of days set out in the plan. If you for whatever reason are forced to reduce the amount of training days we set out with originally, just let me know and we will alter the schedule to accommodate for that. Communication and honestly is of utmost importance, which leads me to my second point.
The more updated I am on a client’s progress, the easier it is for me to make appropriate adjustment to the set-up (in terms of weights used or amount of food eaten etc). That is why I am adamant about weekly or bi-weekly check-ins, to put it simply: the better our communication is, the better I can adjust the plan.
Furthermore, each plan is made with the purpose of progressing in the gym. The progression rate, exercises, frequency and the plan in general is derived from the information I receive from you. What I try to do with each plan is to make is as effective as possible. Effective in the sense that you progress as fast as possible for as long as possible. With that in mind I strive to make the sessions hard, not for the sake of hardness itself, but in order to stimulate increased size and strength. Getting those extra repetitions during the squat session or increasing the weight in the deadlifts will be hard and heavy. Since the each plan has a progression for each exercise there will be a lot of tough sessions and this is also my goal. So be prepared to give your all!
Lastly, you should view Online Coaching as a learning process, a great physique cannot be built in just 12 weeks, however, if you see it as an opportunity to learn as much as possible along the way you will be equipped to deal with similar situations on your own later on and hopefully I will help set you on a path which you can follow for years to come. A great physique takes years of consistent training to achieve!
Life and Training Philosophy. Weakness and Porn. My Training at the Moment
Posted on February 7, 2016

I have shared this video before but it needs to be shared again. You can activate English subtitles to understand the lyrics. The lyrics in combination with the video creates a powerful message. A message I try to get through as often as possible myself. A message that is increasingly important in today’s environment. Your training is your duty as a man, if you don’t train and prepare, train and prepare to defend your own tribe/family/nation you are letting them down. Furthermore, if you lead a degenerate life, full of alcohol, drugs, and porn, you are likewise letting your tribe down. The decadent and weak modern world dictates that you are important as an individual, and that you should be a slave to your every whim and desire. If you accept the Glorious Pill, which I, the Champion of Mother Evropa, distribute with each article and video, you will put yourself in a larger context. And in that larger context you have a larger responsibility, and in turn, with that larger responsibility comes greater power and less room for weakness and excuses. If you too want to be part of something greater, it is no longer possible to let your excuses and weaknesses dictate your life. The reason I constantly hammer at porn is not because it is the most degenerate of practises, but rather because it is the largest, and for me it tells a great deal about an individual whether or not he is willing to give it up or if he will continue to be a slave under it. You who are reading these words in this now will either already be with me, or you will find yourself coming up with excuses as to justify your behaviour. If you, for whatever reason, still watch porn, I present you with the option of quitting porn consumption, i.e., winning the battle against yourself.
Porn in this example can be replaced with other detrimental habits, such as smoking, alcohol, drugs etc. The same reasoning can also be applied to inactivity in terms of training. If you do not already train in the gym or any other glorious sport; cease this blasphemous behaviour immediately and begin to do so.
Realise this, I do not owe anyone my respect, I give my heartfelt respect to individuals who renounce weakness, if you are still a slave to whatever detrimental weakness, you do not respect yourself and can thus not expect the same sort of respect given to those who renounce said weaknesses.
With those words it might be appropriate to briefly elaborate a bit on my own training. I am currently only following one progression plan in terms of strength training and that is the Russian Squat Routine, I have done two sessions this cycle (each cycle is six weeks long) and everything feels good so it will be interesting to see how much I can increase my 1RM with, my current one is 230 kg, it would be absolutely glorious to achieve a 240 kg squat. It is a worthy goal indeed. I do the RSR on my push days, which also contains pushpresses and light incline dumbbellpress, I am currently not benching following an injury in my chest. So I am letting that heal up and focus on the other movements for now.
The other session is a classic pull session which focuses on weighted pull-ups (palms facing me) without straps (for increased grip-strength) and barbell rows.
Other than that a lot of focus is still on MMA (primarily BJJ).
Moreover, I have changed my Instagram name to from Latsbah to The Glorious Lion, which obviously is more epic and worthy!

Lastly, I thought to share this picture of today’s lunch. I always thought that it was a rather hipster thing to take pictures of my food, but then I realised that I will never let others define my character. My guys are interested in how I eat, and I too am interested in what others eat (as it can inspire new recipes etc) so I see no reason to not share my recipes! Below is a tofu fry with a lot of vegetables, 50 g of protein (from 400 g of tofu) and many a joyous micro-nutrients!

Sweden Trains Migrants in Sniping. Assassin’s Creed Unity Review & French Revolution
Posted on January 17, 2016
I thought to cover this first and foremost since it has been brought to my attention on numerous occasions the last few days.
Is the headline true? Yes. Is the headline also somewhat misleading? Yes.
It is not specifically a sniper school for Muslim men, and the purpose (for all I know at least) is not to train them in warfare against the West but rather to integrate them in society via activities. However, it is very much true indeed that the state funds all sorts of sport activities for migrants, most of the recent migrants (also known as rapefugees) are Muslim. So the headline is not false, it just leads to a somewhat false conclusions.
With this said it is still beyond horribly insane that regular Swedish tax payers pay for migrants to participate in any activity. That money could go to Swedish people instead. And since we are on the topic of state-funded activities which might make potential rapefugees becoming more proficient in the harassment of native Swedish men and women; there have also been instances where the state pays for gym memberships and thaiboxing memberships for the migrant men.
I do not need to elaborate further on how wrong this is and it goes without saying that we will aim at de-mantling such policies in the coming time. Realise that the current establishment of Sweden; arguable one of the worst cases of Cultural Marxism to date, is declining in power with each passing day. So even if you, as an international reader may gaze upon Sweden with a confused and disdainful look; do not despair, Sweden will soon return to her fine old self.
Now, onto something completely unrelated; today’s exploration with my girl, found this rather epic bridge. There is definitely something appealing with stone buildings in nature. They blend in quite nicely and create that harmony between man and nature, a harmony that more modern style architecture isn’t quite capable of.
I have finished Assassin’s Creed Unity and I would most definitely recommend it, it is a great game. However, there are some things that keep it from perfection. Alas let us start with the good things. First of all it might just be the graphically best looking game I have ever played, the aesthetics of it are also top notch (as is proper considering the time period). Usually the graphics are not that important but this was, at least in my experience, out of the ordinary (and yes, the game played nicely on my GTX 960).
The architecture was glorious to behold, as was the setting; late 1700’s Paris. The story was decent, better than expected actually, I will not elaborate further as to not spoil anything. The bad parts, however, was due to some minor bugs still present, much like Rome Total War 2 it was really broken upon release but had a good going over to make it better (so it was better to wait). The combat system was not the best to date; the parkour and exploration aspect were more rewarding. A bit longer main quest would also have been great. They should, for coming titles, focus a bit more on the main story and less on side quests, as you usually don’t do them upon finishing the game (at least I don’t). In games such as Skyrim this is another matter completely though.
The most interesting thing with the game though, is the fact that “the bad guys” are the revolutionaries, I thought that they would be the good guys since the Assassin’s Creed franchise is border-line Cultural Marxist, and the French revolutionaries were the original leftists. The term “left” actually stems from the French Revolution where the extreme elements sat to the left in the parliament. Furthermore it is interesting to study the French Revolution for a Traditionalist since many values that are today destroying Western civilization stemmed from that time. I do not know how ideologically oriented the makers of the game are but it was refreshing to hear the bad guys shouting “damn conservatives” in the game!
Also, we are almost at 26 000 subscribers on YouTube now which is amazing. Very happy with that. I will make some really profound videos in the coming week so stay tuned for that!
Sunday Summary. New Year, New Opportunities! Saudi Arabian – Iranian Tensions. A Solid Video Recommendation!
Posted on January 3, 2016
A new year is upon us and as I have already stated I have high hopes for the coming year. To give my prediction in a single sentence: Less degeneracy and more gloriousness. What I count as degeneracy are (among others): drugs, alcohol, weakness, political correctness. And what I count as gloriousness (what I mean more exactly is easier to understand for those who have been with me for a while): training hard with a purpose, abstinence from above mentioned indulgences (in excess), love for family, nation, heritage, nature. The list can be made very long indeed. However, what is most important is that we continue to work hard to combat degeneracy and promote proper values!
For myself I will start the new year easy and ramp up the intensity later on when spring revitalises the earth. As much as I would love to train insane all the time, I need to pace myself. With this said the main focus will be on the martial arts for now (BJJ and boxing to be more precise). Below is a picture of the team’s new ring, which is an absolutely glorious addition! Screenshot from this video: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hZvR99_rHo).
In regards to global politics there has arisen tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran over an Saudi execution of a Shiite cleric (https://www.rt.com/news/327755-saudi-embassy-iran-protest/). This is just a single event but when viewing it in the larger context of the mosaic of Middle Eastern relations (or global relations for that matter) it becomes interesting. If you have read my previous Sunday Summaries I have touched upon this topic before, alas it is worth mentioning the dynamics of the region once again. Islam has two main branches; Sunni and Shia, the majority of the world’s Muslims are Sunni and Saudi Arabia is Sunni whereas Iran is Shia. So there is already that distinction between the two. Furthermore Saudi Arabia is an ally of USA/NATO and Israel. Saudi Arabia is an important partner for the United States due to its large oil production and is thus immune to many demands that would otherwise be placed upon them: an interesting comparison is how Putin’s Russia is treated in Western media in relation to the infamous “anti gay propaganda”-laws, versus the fact that homosexuality is punishable by death in Saudi Arabia.
Iran, on the other hand, has closer ties to Russia and also to Syria’s Bashar al-Assad. So to conclude the situation: Saudi Arabia and Iran are on the opposite sides of the ongoing chess-game in the Middle East, which makes this “incident” interesting to follow!
Lastly, in an attempt at furthering your training motivation (kicking the new year off in a glorious manner), I highly recommend watching the following video. It is very well produced and contains a great message, you can activate subtitles for the video (it is in Russian). It also grants me plenty of motivation to make epic videos myself.
