I have a really bad injury that prevents me from running, I still want to challenge myself though. Do you have any suggestions for someone in my position, Bedros?
Thanks, Bedros. This is a very inspiring and uplifting video. I need to finish whatever I start. Curious to know how long it took you to complete that marathon? I've never done one before.
Nothing like a dude who lifts weights talking about common sense things about how to be productive. He's so radical and different than every other dude on a podcast. He's so original and full of wisdom.
Just love the whole concept of stacking wins on an hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly basis. It's really helped me take consistency in all areas of my life to the next level!
Bedros ! I've been at a low point mentally because of my failures and getting paralyzed to do the next move out of fear. Your videos (and book) have been very helpful for me to get over the fear and anxiety and since then I've been stacking W in every aspect of my life. 🙏
I’m 29. Was mainly focused on being a heavy lifting bodybuilder from 20-27. Stopped the gym but got into running around 28. The most i ever ran before the marathon challenge was 13 miles. I did the six week program you put up for FREE, and ran a marathon by myself at a park. My girlfriend followed me on a bike. It took me about 5 hours! I’m writing this to say the 26.2 program you put up works!! Getting back to it and going to compete for a 46.3 mile race come September
Hello B, and good morning , My Anaheim bro" yes I grew up in Anaheim also, tho a tad older as my HS class was of 76. Want to say I deeply appreciate the time you take" in your busy life and create the absolute truthful pod casts, Man, you say it right on the nail head in many areas, and you sir have deeply inspired me. I will be 67 in July, had a horrible year last year, but thats the past. Today I work FT, on my feet 8 hours a day M-F ,hit the gym 4-5 days a week with 45- cardio & 45 min weights & machines. I also a avid hiker and now close to my high school weight, ok +20. I'm also a landscape artist, and always push myself in doing more art time, as I listen to you on FB, and now on Saturday or Sunday will push more in connecting with art markets in Tennessee were I am planning to relocate to , soon and get away from hellish hot San Antonio, Thank you sir , for all your wisdom, Jimmy C
Amen! Coming out of Highschool I was going to join the Marines. The recruiter asked why I wanted to join. I said confidence. Shortly after I became very sick. Over the next 10 years, life was hell, but Coming out of that I had no problems with confidence. Feel the fear and do it anyway.
Ran my Marathon last Wednesday, June 21st. I listened to this podcast on the 6th when it came out, and started training the next day. I will say I had been running about a mile before lifting about 3x a week, but the furthest I had ever run was 5-6 miles. I never have enjoyed it much but it's not so bad when you're actually in shape haha. Anyway, I signed up for a marathon and for the next two weeks I basically spent all my free time reading and researching proper form, diet and nutrition, hydration, and proper race fueling. Day 12 was the first 2 hour run (per Bedros' training schedule), and I knocked out a half marathon, to my surprise. Three days later was the 3-hour run, and I decided, feeding off my previous accomplishment, to go the distance. I finished in just under five hours, out on my own and nearly on a whim. No cheering, no support, no headphones, and at the end, incredible knee and foot pain to boot. With actual race day a month away, I think I might just switch to the half. Cheers Bedros
Thank you Bedros! A big confidence for me is I just finished your book Man Up. It is the second book I’ve ever readin my life. I’m in my 40s and have struggled with reading since I was a kid. I have started making reading apart of my daily routine. Man up is a great book and was perfectly timed for me and where I am in life. Thanks again.
Your videos are inspiration sir. I'm 50 years old. This time last year, I had major surgery to remove part of my colon due to acute diverticulitis. The doctor was amazing. Took me apart and pieced me back together without the need for an ostomy bag. Prior to surgery I spent almost three months with a drain tube protruding from my abdomen to keep the abscess from sending me into sepsis while I waited for my colon to calm down enough for surgery. During this time I resumed a total body kettlebell regimen and built an entire deck off the back of my house. After surgery I worked my way back to health with exercise bands until I was able to lift again. I've gone from 250lbs at 6' tall to 216lbs. I'm not completely out of dad bod waters but I'm definitely moving in the right direction. I'm forced to pay much closer attention to my diet these days to avoid any flare-ups so it's def helped. I have more heart and drive than most of the younger people I meet. I refuse to give up on my goals. The next step is finding a way out of this rat race.
Man I feel you on the running thing. Finishing an event like that is just a crazy feeling of achievement! And dropping out of one hurts so bad, even when you are truly injured. But there is always the chance to redeem yourself as long as you wake up the next day! And the more you say “no” to _that voice_ , the easier it becomes to ignore it.
I love this whole message that is being put out there. I have been listening to Bedros since the beginning of the year and I loved the idea about running a marathon. I left my home state in January in order to become a new person and to not hold myself back in regards to anything and build better standards. I decided to run a marathon for a big win because for most of my life I had told myself that I could never run one due to knee pain and mental blocks that come with it, plus I hate running more than anything. I'm trying to get myself to do the things I hate the most so I figured I would make this one of them. I decided to make it a statement and run it on July 8th, when I turn 37, to show that while most people would be sleeping in and resting for the day and enjoying whatever they want, I'm out at 5AM putting myself through pain and doing something I never thought I would do because it doesn't matter what day it is, I'm going to just attack it and become a better person.
Do what you say you’re gonna do, it’s that simple. 6 months ago I was fighting for my life in a hospital bed with cancer, age 23. I just bought my first rental property today, my business just landed it’s first major client, and I just got a massive job promotion offer. There’s nothing special I’ve done, just do what you say you’re gonna do. Words to live by.
Man I've been laying up with a back injury for 2 months now, I've been too scared to do anything incase I inflame it again. I've done zero exercise since, and I used to jog 5km regularly 2 or 3 times a week before. I was starting to feel lethargic and faint but after listening to this this morning, I got on my treadmill for the first time since my injury and have been walking for 47 minutes so far. So glad I listened to you this morning Bedros.
Could you do an episode about your TRT usage? Seems like most high level athletes and health enthusiasts (huberman, rogan etc) all use TRT even though it’s frowned upon
Brother you are amazing, thanks for sharing your wisdom and experience. PLEASE keep it up - you've been a huge help to changed the trajectory of things
First view. Thank you sir for posting such useful content. I have started my own fitness studio by following your information and instructions in all videos. I wouldn't be who and where I am without. Thank you so much 🙏
Spot on. There is no such thing as manifesting and sitting around and the universe just magically giving it to you free of charge. The only way to get what you want is to believe that you can have it and then do whatever it takes to get it. Peace
You are the sum of your 5 closest friends. My five closest friends are : Bedros Keulian Ed Mylett Eric Thomas Pat Bet-David Brandon Carter Growth is the norm nowadays.
Excellent advice, Bedros! I needed this and greatly appreciate you putting this together. I'm now more determined than ever to shut that devil up for good! Thank you, Bedros!
Would love to hear more from you on the topic of “Patience” and “Compounding” actions over time. Steady growth (consistent growth), exponential growth, keeping and maintaining the things you achieve, etc. 🔥 brands/businesses success measurements (1-3 years in, 4-6 years in, 7-10 years in, etc.)
Thank you for the great advice! I haven’t done a physical challenge in a while and I do know I get a lot of mental and business strength from them. Time to do something hard
SO powerful. Been doing exactly what this video described since I found your channel a few months ago and I can wholeheartedly say that IT FUCKING WORKS. Keep stacking those wins boys. The impact your actions have matter, and they DO make a difference.
Awesome episode, huge fan here. Keep em coming... One SMALL thing though to all the people thinking of running a marathon. DO NOT go from non runner to marathon in 6 weeks. That is extremely ill advised. Bedros is a beast, he did it and crushed it, great! But if you want to run a marathon (and every man should) you should do a proper 5-6 month program. If you try to rush it, you can get seriously hurt, to the point where it will ruin your enjoyment of running forever. If you do it right, do it in 5-6 months of training and take it serious, you will be a runner for life. Lift heavy shit, run long distances, that's the key to health and longevity. But seriously, running a marathon is no joke, don't try to rush it guys...
If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance,but if you want to make your money work for you...prevent inflation
Another great video. I got the new idea on how to tell my students to keep their word which is giving me a real problem on how to educate them but at the same time not appear as a "dictator."
This is for the others watching this but, did you know humans are the only species that can run past the moment they want to drop? That’s what led our ancestors to become the apex land predators long ago. We chased our prey and followed their footprints, blood or snapped foliage continuously and kept pushing onwards. Eventually the prey would collapse out of exhaustion leading to a successful hunt. Right now I’m out of shape honestly, But I was and am still am able to run forever it feels sometimes cause I knew that with every step forward will be one more than whatever I’m chasing. It’s not anatomical it’s our special mental capacity to keep going forward that set us apart to make the world it is today. Everything we ever need in life was already given to us by simply having the mentality to keep going forward no matter our circumstances or disabilities. Keep going forward’s friends.
In cross country we call that “hitting the wall” it’s when your mind starts to think negative due to the fatigue. You have to mentally keep going as well
The pain is temporary, crossing the finish line is something that you can and will achieve and that isn't temporary. That feeling of achievement doesn't go away, it's a huge confidence boost. And that achievement will stay with you for the rest of your life.
What do you do when your spouse is the one that’s constantly late or not as concerned with building their “reputation score “ as you? And when you say hey I don’t wanna be late it starts a fight and so on and so forth.
You give me a lot of motivation to be honest with myself and get things done, and at the same time I also practice English by listening to your podcasts in housework or in training

You should address the scam commenters with the Telegram numbers in a video - seen other RU-vidrs do it & your audience seems like they might fall for it since it looks like it comes from you

Think they are doing to alot of people. Serial killers. But I'm defiantly listening I'm going get lean as fuck and silence them as much as I can
