Sunday Summary
Posted on May 10, 2015
Welcome back to the Sunday Summary. It has been a while since the last one unfortunately. There are a lot of topics that could be covered but I will try to write a bit about some of them. First of all I made a post (from which the picture is taken) giving a quick message encouraging people in Europe, especially Sweden to not lose hope. If you haven’t already read the article (it is very brief) you can find it here: http://narcissus.se/2015/05/07/defeatist-attitudes-is-treason/

As for the training I am actually in the middle of a Smolov JR cycle for the benchpress, this feels really good. I have also begun to incorporate more belt-less training. My deadlift form has never been good and I have come to the conclusion that it is due to a weak lower back. I will utilise belt-less deadlifts on a low weight everyday in order to focus on this weak-point and also in order to focus on the technique. Not training hard is very frustrating but for the heavier weights the benchpress and weighted chins will have to stand for that part until I feel confident in increasing the weights in the deadlifts and squats again. Note that I am not injured, just dropping the weights to focus on the technique!

In other news I have begun to Twitch a bit more frequently now. The last few streams have been of The Witcher 2 and Attila. Attila is legendary as always and The Witcher 2 actually impressed me a lot. Great story, gameplay, graphics and overall aesthetics/feel.
And regarding Total War: Attila I will start a new campaign with the Western Roman Empire. The reason for starting a new one is that the current one was poorly managed from the start. I made the first episode on the release date, in order to show the game and share my excitement, so a lot of mistakes were made.
Furthermore regarding the videos, what seem to be appreciated is longer videologs, I will make more of these during the summer, but as it is right now it would not be very suitable.
Lastly, there was a military parade in Moscow yesterday celebrating the victory in WWII, I might comment on this further via a Facebook post later or via a YouTube video, all I can say for now is how genuinely disgusted I am by the whole affair. On both the east- and west-front countless German women were mass-raped at the end of the war, this must never be forgotten. Yes I realise that it was done as a retaliation, but I can tell you this much, if someone had killed a comrade of mine or even my brother, I would take great pleasure in killing that enemy in return, but I would rather take my own life than taking out my revenge by raping the women of my enemies. Mass rapes and gang rapes are done by sub-human filth that needs to be exterminated, not excused or celebrated. I could elaborate on the topic further but I fear that my blood boils to hot if I do. So with that said I hope no one is celebrating what happened during that time.
With all of this said I hope everyone has a tremendous week ahead, with great mental and physical gains!
Defeatist Attitudes is Treason
Posted on May 7, 2015
This might just be the most important message I can impart with my current reach so I will keep it brief, with this said I implore you to read it and spread the message.
If there is one thing I absolutely resent and disdain, or even hate actually, it is the defeatist attitudes that a lot of people go around with. It is one thing to harbour negative thoughts. It is another thing to spread that poison to your environment. So the next time you want to say (or comment) “it is hopeless”, “it is too late”, “Sweden (or given nation) will fall”, realise that you are about to commit a terrible sacrilege and check yourself. Success in any given endeavour, whether it consists in being able to squat 200 kg or in saving Europe from becoming a fractured and chaotic hell relies heavily upon believing in victory. If you go into a situation with the mindset that you will lose, you have already beaten yourself, and you will lose.
I can maintain a positive outlook on life and the future because I have enough historical knowledge to know that glorious victories can be achieved even when vastly outnumbered and from impossible odds.
Lastly, if you ever feel that is hopeless remember the famous words of King Henry V of England.
“The Fewer the Men the Greater the Share of Honour”
