Odinson

As I always state it's been a while since I've posted in this. I've taken up new responsibilities at work along with my life guarding. I now teach swim lessons and work in the health and wellness department as a Personal Trainer/Health and Wellness Floor Staff. About fucking time. Many of you might think it's easy, well it wasn't for me. I had to earn my chance at it for a while, I finally got lucky, and I will never take that luck or those who helped me along the way for granted. So fuck all of you who doubt me!

Since I have been taking on these extra responsibilities, it gives me a much easier way to record my fitness progress and martial arts training. I will never give up. As my username states I am a son of Odin, I am not born for heaven or hell. I'm born for either Valhalla or Helgafjell. "I would rather be in hell with my ancestors, then in heaven with my enemies." -King Radbod, King Of The Frisians "Heaven for climate, hell for company." -Mark Twain.

Lastly to all the SJWs and smug self righteous pricks on this forum go fuck yourselves or better yet go kill yourselves. And before you get at me for being mean here's my response: I wasn't trying to be nice. I was purposely trying to be mean. Because if you are not going to show me any respect, understanding, sympathy, honor or support than you're not worthy of mine.

Too much personal stuff going on to update....well here goes.

Starting yesterday and ending Friday I am taking the lifeguard course/exam. I will maintain a regular strength training regiment too. As I get plenty cardio swimming.

 

How did you do on your lifeguard exam?

Shit this was a long time ago. Sorry I didn't mean to come across as mean, but I did great and have been working as a lifeguard since last year.

Once again I've been too busy to comment on this blog. I feel the need to comment today, just to say I'm ashamed that I didn't get a workout in.

Can someone please explain to me why so many Soy Protein bashers claim this? Is it true?
