I

first

started

lifting

weights

when

I

was

a

scrawny

little

year

old

and

I

havent

looked

back

since

This

is

actually

a

photo

of

me

just

before

I

started

lifting

Its

not

but

its

still

funny

After

seeing

all

the

incredible

benefits

Ive

had

from

lifting

this

article

is

my

attempt

to

convince

you

that

it

was

something

you

need

to

add

into

your

daily

routine

So

without

further

ado

I

present

Ways

That

Lifting

Weights

Will

Transform

Your

Life

Contrary

to

popular

belief

there

are

more

benefits

to

lifting

weights

than

bulging

biceps

and

a

rock

hard

pack

FAR

more

And

if

youre

sitting

at

home

on

your

arse

when

you

could

be

in

a

gym

here

are

things

that

youre

missing

out

on

Increases

self

belief

The

core

essence

of

building

inner

confidence

and

self

belief

is

setting

goals

that

appear

beyond

your

capabilities

and

working

towards

them

in

a

consistent

and

committed

manner

until

you

achieve

them

This

is

lifting

weights

in

a

nutshell

When

you

start

out

youll

be

weak

like

a

little

kitten

Dont

worry

everyone

is

Then

you

set

yourself

a

goal

that

seems

FAR

beyond

whats

possible

as

you

start

working

towards

it

Step

by

step

Taking

little

steps

every

day

gradually

improving

until

all

of

a

sudden

youre

doing

things

that

a

few

months

ago

seemed

impossible

That

gives

you

a

massive

boost

in

confidence

You

prove

to

yourself

not

just

logically

know

but

have

actual

first

hand

experience

that

if

you

set

yourself

goals

and

work

towards

them

you

can

achieve

anything

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

had

this

belief

What

would

change

about

the

way

you

live

your

life

if

you

knew

that

you

just

needed

to

apply

yourself

to

a

goal

and

eventually

youd

reach

it

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

by

lifting

weights

Not

convinced

to

start

hitting

the

gym

just

yet

Thats

ok

What

about

this

You

learn

goal

setting

planning

prioritisation

and

discipline

Goal

setting

planning

and

prioritisation

are

CRUCIAL

skills

in

building

the

life

you

want

If

you

cant

set

a

goal

then

youll

never

achieve

that

goal

If

you

cant

plan

for

that

goal

youll

never

achieve

it

because

you

wont

have

a

structured

and

systematic

way

of

getting

there

If

you

cant

prioritise

your

activities

then

youll

forever

be

doing

little

things

that

arent

actually

getting

you

where

you

want

to

be

And

if

you

dont

have

the

discipline

to

stick

with

those

priorities

and

keep

pushing

forward

then

the

best

laid

plans

will

go

to

waste

How

do

you

get

better

at

this

There

are

a

few

tricks

and

techniques

you

can

learn

but

the

more

important

element

is

practicing

it

in

an

area

of

your

life

that

you

actually

care

about

This

is

because

you

can

see

the

benefits

of

using

it

and

the

benefits

that

come

from

being

good

at

it

Lifting

weights

is

the

perfect

space

to

practice

goal

setting

planning

and

prioritisation

because

its

the

fastest

and

easiest

way

to

improve

If

you

dont

know

the

goals

you

want

to

achieve

lose

fat

gain

muscle

improve

strength

increase

endurance

increase

muscle

definition

etc

youll

never

get

there

because

each

goal

requires

a

different

workout

routine

If

you

dont

plan

properly

youll

end

up

wasting

workouts

If

you

workout

before

your

muscles

have

had

a

chance

to

recover

you

wont

be

able

to

get

the

maximum

benefit

out

of

your

workout

If

you

wait

too

long

after

theyve

recovered

you

will

lose

the

gains

you

made

on

the

previous

workout

If

you

dont

learn

to

prioritise

your

time

properly

you

wont

be

able

to

keep

to

the

plan

that

youve

made

and

youll

suffer

the

same

problems

that

you

face

if

you

just

dont

plan

at

all

And

if

you

dont

have

the

discipline

to

follow

through

on

your

plan

and

work

through

to

your

goals

you

will

waste

all

the

goals

youve

achieved

in

the

previous

weeks

What

would

be

different

about

your

life

if

you

could

set

goals

plan

effectively

for

them

were

able

to

prioritise

your

time

to

meet

that

plan

and

had

the

discipline

to

carry

out

those

plans

How

much

easier

simpler

and

more

rewarding

would

life

be

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

by

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

to

start

lifting

weights

just

yet

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Its

an

automatic

wardrobe

upgrade

When

you

work

out

your

clothes

automatically

look

better

on

you

Instead

of

looking

like

rags

draped

over

an

emaciated

wire

coat

hanger

or

a

drop

sheet

hung

over

a

sack

of

potatoes

theres

solid

firm

muscle

filling

out

all

the

right

places

and

empty

space

where

space

should

be

Your

Tshirts

will

fill

out

around

the

sleeves

across

the

shoulders

through

the

chest

and

give

you

that

nice

vshaped

back

Youll

have

thighs

to

fill

out

your

shorts

and

an

arse

to

actually

fill

out

your

jeans

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

felt

like

you

looked

good

in

the

clothes

you

wore

What

would

change

if

you

felt

confident

and

well

presented

walking

into

clubs

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

by

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

to

start

working

out

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Youll

become

better

at

other

activities

When

youre

stronger

fitter

have

more

endurance

and

are

more

explosive

youre

automatically

better

at

other

activities

When

you

play

sports

with

the

other

guys

in

the

office

you

become

an

asset

rather

than

a

liability

When

you

kick

the

ball

around

with

your

mates

you

can

keep

going

longer

than

you

used

to

be

able

to

When

youre

throwing

the

ball

around

with

your

kids

you

dont

have

to

sit

down

whilst

theyre

still

full

of

energy

On

top

of

this

because

a

lot

of

lifts

especially

big

combination

lifts

like

squats

and

power

cleans

require

high

levels

of

muscular

coordination

you

will

become

more

coordinated

The

basic

movements

needed

to

be

good

at

most

activities

will

become

more

natural

and

if

theyre

not

youll

be

able

to

learn

them

much

faster

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

all

the

other

activities

in

your

life

suddenly

became

easier

and

more

natural

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

from

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

yet

Maybe

this

will

convince

you

Youll

be

better

in

bed

Of

all

the

activities

you

get

better

at

this

is

probably

the

one

that

will

make

the

most

difference

to

your

relationships

with

women

When

you

work

out

and

are

in

shape

your

endurance

goes

up

and

up

and

up

Instead

of

running

out

of

breath

in

minutes

and

needing

a

cigarette

you

can

keep

going

and

going

and

going

and

going

Then

you

can

take

a

break

and

get

going

again

Instead

of

having

her

leave

the

next

morning

wondering

why

she

wasted

her

entire

night

for

that

minutes

of

inadequate

panting

shell

be

wondering

whether

or

not

she

REALLY

has

to

go

to

work

today

Which

sounds

better

to

you

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

from

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

to

start

lifting

weights

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Makes

your

life

easier

When

youre

strong

fit

and

inshape

every

physical

activity

in

life

becomes

easier

Climbing

stairs

is

simple

carrying

heavy

objects

is

a

breeze

and

you

start

to

look

forward

to

have

to

rearrange

the

office

because

you

feel

like

its

a

challenge

you

can

take

on

Oh

because

everything

is

easier

by

the

time

you

get

home

at

night

you

dont

feel

so

exhausted

that

you

have

to

waste

the

rest

of

the

night

away

in

front

of

the

TV

because

youre

too

tired

to

move

You

get

home

feeling

fresh

energetic

and

excited

to

get

out

and

take

on

more

challenges

and

do

more

exciting

things

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

get

home

every

day

feeling

strong

fresh

and

ready

to

take

on

the

world

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

by

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

yet

Maybe

this

will

convince

you

Reduces

the

risk

of

every

major

lifestyle

disease

When

youre

in

shape

you

reduce

the

risk

of

EVERY

major

lifestyle

disease

Depending

on

how

dedicated

you

are

your

risk

of

diabetes

heart

disease

stroke

a

few

kinds

of

cancer

and

even

black

plague

are

all

reduced

That

means

that

not

only

will

you

live

longer

and

have

that

longer

life

be

more

rewarding

exciting

and

fulfilling

but

you

can

live

that

life

worrying

less

about

what

could

happen

to

you

in

that

time

This

is

what

you

can

get

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

yet

Maybe

this

will

convince

you

Meet

athletic

and

confident

women

What

kind

of

women

do

you

think

go

to

gyms

The

kind

of

woman

who

not

only

values

her

health

and

takes

care

of

how

she

looks

and

feels

but

also

women

who

have

the

determination

and

self

belief

to

take

responsibility

into

their

own

hands

and

do

something

about

it

You

meet

confident

strong

determined

women

who

take

responsibility

for

their

life

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

were

surrounded

by

these

kinds

of

women

and

also

had

something

you

could

talk

to

them

about

eg

Working

out

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

yet

Maybe

this

will

convince

you

Forces

you

to

look

after

your

diet

One

of

the

things

youll

learn

very

quickly

is

that

you

can

amplify

your

results

in

the

gym

fold

by

looking

after

your

diet

You

can

get

leaner

stronger

more

ripped

and

workout

harder

just

by

eating

the

right

things

And

because

youll

be

able

to

see

and

feel

a

real

and

tangible

difference

in

your

workouts

from

eating

well

youll

be

more

likely

to

stick

to

it

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

could

see

and

feel

a

direct

correlation

between

eating

well

and

moving

forward

with

your

life

Would

you

be

more

likely

to

do

it

Well

thats

what

youll

get

when

you

start

working

out

Still

not

convinced

Maybe

this

will

convince

you

Teaches

you

a

new

skill

Theres

more

to

working

out

than

just

pushing

heavy

things

around

a

mirrored

room

Theres

a

proven

science

behind

maximising

gains

in

the

gym

If

you

get

into

it

theres

a

lot

you

can

learn

and

have

a

great

time

learning

This

keeps

your

brain

active

rather

than

wasting

it

away

in

front

of

a

computer

monitor

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

had

something

interesting

to

keep

learning

about

rather

than

just

wanting

to

waste

your

time

away

in

front

of

the

TV

Well

this

is

what

youll

get

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

Maybe

this

will

convince

you

Develop

the

habit

of

pushing

through

fear

When

youre

standing

underneath

a

barbell

with

it

racked

across

your

shoulders

and

more

than

your

bodyweight

stacked

along

its

sides

thighs

burning

from

the

last

sets

youve

already

completed

and

sweat

dripping

down

into

your

eyes

theres

a

certain

amount

of

fear

that

comes

with

thinking

about

your

next

rep

It

takes

courage

commitment

and

dedication

to

drop

your

arse

down

and

push

through

And

then

even

more

to

do

the

next

And

the

next

And

the

next

But

by

doing

so

youre

teaching

yourself

a

VERY

valuable

lesson

fear

is

not

in

control

Youre

proving

to

yourself

that

you

can

experience

fear

and

take

action

anyway

Can

you

think

of

any

area

of

your

life

where

this

might

come

in

handy

How

about

when

youre

walking

down

the

street

and

you

see

that

stunning

Spanish

beauty

gliding

towards

you

How

about

when

you

start

thinking

about

approaching

and

feel

that

fear

rise

inside

you

Imagine

all

the

times

in

your

life

where

youve

known

that

taking

action

was

the

right

thing

to

do

but

you

let

fear

dictate

how

you

lived

your

life

Imagine

how

much

different

your

life

would

have

been

today

if

youd

proven

to

yourself

multiple

times

every

day

that

you

had

the

ability

to

act

despite

fear

Imagine

how

different

your

life

would

have

been

right

now

Thats

the

difference

you

can

get

from

lifting

weights

Convinced

yet

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

More

positive

attention

from

women

When

you

look

good

and

feel

confident

and

strong

more

women

will

notice

you

Youll

stand

out

in

a

crowd

rather

than

fading

into

the

generic

background

of

overweight

miserable

needy

people

and

women

will

want

to

talk

to

you

How

much

easier

do

you

think

it

would

be

to

meet

more

women

if

women

were

already

interested

in

you

before

you

approached

them

Well

thats

what

you

can

get

from

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Puts

you

outside

your

comfort

zone

Nestling

yourself

firmly

inside

your

comfort

zone

is

a

wonderful

and

pleasant

thing

to

do

Its

also

the

fastest

and

surest

way

to

mediocrity

Why

Because

if

you

keep

doing

what

youve

been

doing

youll

keep

getting

what

youve

always

been

getting

To

really

live

a

rewarding

fulfilling

and

exciting

life

you

need

to

continually

push

beyond

your

comfort

zone

and

try

new

things

Lifting

weights

will

help

you

do

that

For

starters

if

youve

never

been

inside

a

gym

they

can

be

scary

places

filled

with

weird

people

doing

stranger

movements

on

even

stranger

machines

But

even

if

you

have

lifting

weights

is

ALL

about

putting

yourself

outside

your

comfort

zone

and

challenging

yourself

The

body

is

an

adaptive

organism

that

responds

to

new

stresses

Once

it

encounters

new

challenges

ie

Heavier

weights

it

developes

the

abilities

to

be

able

to

deal

with

those

new

challenges

ie

Muscles

If

you

dont

keep

pushing

your

comfort

zone

ie

Adding

more

weights

and

doing

different

exercises

your

body

does

not

develop

new

responses

ie

Building

more

muscle

So

to

continue

to

see

gains

through

lifting

weights

you

have

to

constantly

push

yourself

beyond

your

comfort

zone

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

constantly

pushed

yourself

beyond

your

comfort

zone

Well

thats

what

you

can

get

by

lifting

weights

Still

not

convinced

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Gets

you

out

of

your

head

and

into

your

body

Im

sure

you

know

the

incredible

benefits

of

being

in

your

body

and

being

present

with

women

rather

than

being

stuck

in

your

head

and

overanalytical

What

you

might

not

know

is

that

being

in

your

body

and

not

analysing

the

situation

is

a

skill

that

you

develop

The

more

time

you

spend

logically

analysing

a

situation

the

more

natural

it

becomes

to

analyse

situations

The

more

time

you

spend

feeling

and

being

in

your

body

the

more

natural

it

becomes

to

be

in

your

body

and

just

experience

the

moment

One

of

the

great

things

about

lifting

weights

is

that

its

an

activity

that

focuses

on

feeling

rather

than

thinking

Yes

there

are

times

when

you

have

to

think

about

what

youre

doing

and

how

youre

doing

it

but

the

majority

of

the

time

is

spend

feeling

where

your

limits

are

how

much

you

have

left

whether

your

form

is

right

etc

The

more

time

you

spend

feeling

your

way

through

activities

rather

than

thinking

your

way

through

the

easier

and

more

natural

it

becomes

to

feel

your

way

through

other

activities

like

meeting

women

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

were

more

present

and

less

analytical

when

interacting

with

women

Well

thats

what

you

can

get

from

lifting

weights

STILL

not

convinced

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Meet

guys

whore

also

committed

to

building

a

quality

life

If

youre

anything

like

most

guys

the

further

down

this

path

of

becoming

the

Man

of

your

dreams

you

get

the

less

and

less

you

find

you

have

in

common

with

your

old

friends

Dont

stress

thats

totally

normal

When

you

decide

to

stop

complaining

and

take

full

responsibility

for

your

life

situation

hanging

out

with

people

who

still

want

to

bitch

and

moan

and

settle

for

mediocrity

just

seems

less

and

less

productive

That

leaves

a

hole

in

your

life

and

one

that

youll

undoubtedly

want

to

fill

But

where

can

you

meet

other

guys

whore

committed

to

taking

control

of

their

lives

whore

willing

to

push

through

challenges

and

barriers

to

become

the

Man

they

want

to

be

have

the

confidence

to

branch

out

and

try

new

things

At

the

gym

of

course

Lifting

weights

is

a

great

way

to

meet

more

mates

whore

also

willing

to

take

life

by

the

horns

and

push

towards

their

goals

Now

Im

not

saying

that

all

the

guys

you

meet

will

be

like

that

but

youve

got

a

far

higher

chance

than

sitting

around

on

your

arse

playing

xbox

STILL

not

convinced

to

start

lifting

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Increase

Testosterone

Testosterone

is

the

raw

chemical

building

block

thats

responsible

for

your

manliness

Its

whats

responsible

for

your

level

of

aggression

determination

and

willingness

to

fight

for

what

you

believe

in

Scientific

studies

have

shown

that

guys

with

higher

testosterone

levels

are

not

only

more

attractive

to

women

but

also

generally

more

successful

in

life

still

looking

for

those

references

The

good

thing

for

you

is

that

your

levels

of

testosterone

arent

set

Theyre

completely

flexible

and

you

can

increase

your

levels

of

testosterone

through

various

activities

Some

activities

involve

changing

your

diet

whilst

others

involve

lifting

weights

Yes

thats

right

Lifting

weights

is

a

great

and

simple

way

to

increase

your

testosterone

ESPECIALLY

big

full

body

movements

like

squats

and

Olympic

lifts

clean

and

jerk

hang

clean

etc

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

had

more

aggression

determination

and

drive

to

achieve

your

goals

Well

thats

what

you

can

get

through

lifting

weights

STILL

not

convinced

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

Learn

the

value

of

working

hard

for

something

Modern

technology

is

great

at

serving

solutions

up

on

a

plate

Minute

Abs

click

button

purchasing

and

fast

food

have

all

instilled

the

idea

that

everything

should

be

instant

This

causes

a

lot

of

problems

especially

when

it

comes

to

changing

your

life

because

the

patterns

youre

attempting

to

change

take

time

to

change

Youve

been

reinforcing

these

old

habits

of

running

away

from

fear

and

blaming

other

people

for

your

life

situation

for

many

years

and

they

dont

go

away

overnight

When

a

lot

of

guys

realise

this

they

give

up

and

run

back

to

their

safe

comfortable

cave

Theyre

just

not

used

to

working

hard

for

anything

in

their

life

and

so

when

theyre

faced

with

a

challenge

they

give

up

Lifting

weights

is

a

great

place

to

learn

the

value

of

hard

work

Nothing

comes

easy

when

youre

lying

on

your

back

under

a

barbell

with

stacked

on

the

sides

and

your

mate

yelling

down

at

you

for

one

more

rep

Everything

you

get

in

a

gym

you

have

to

earn

Even

with

all

the

latest

advancements

in

chemicals

and

hormones

you

still

have

to

put

the

hard

work

in

on

your

end

to

get

any

real

improvements

from

them

No

quick

fixes

are

going

to

get

you

results

Your

fat

isnt

going

to

melt

away

by

sitting

in

the

sauna

and

your

biceps

arent

going

to

puff

up

by

standing

under

the

hot

showers

Everything

you

get

you

have

to

earn

But

in

saying

that

if

you

put

the

hard

yards

in

you

will

get

returns

Your

body

will

change

and

you

will

see

results

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

stopped

waiting

for

a

quick

fix

and

you

started

putting

in

the

hard

yards

This

is

what

youll

get

from

lifting

weights

STILL

not

convinced

Well

maybe

this

will

convince

you

You

just

feel

better

Do

you

ever

just

feel

down

Like

things

are

too

much

Do

you

struggle

feeling

flat

and

depressed

Well

I

have

a

solution

Theres

a

simple

and

incredibly

beneficial

activity

you

can

participate

in

that

increases

the

levels

of

endorphins

feel

good

chemicals

that

your

body

produces

Its

called

lifting

weights

If

youve

never

pushed

yourself

to

absolute

exhaustion

in

the

pursuit

of

physical

perfection

then

you

might

not

know

what

Im

talking

about

but

the

feeling

you

get

when

youve

collapsed

on

the

benches

in

the

change

room

after

a

massive

workout

is

unparalleled

There

are

feel

good

chemicals

running

through

your

body

and

you

feel

on

top

of

the

world

Its

as

close

to

really

good

sex

as

you

can

get

by

yourself

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

you

had

a

simple

and

quick

way

to

feel

happy

and

fulfilled

regardless

of

whats

going

on

in

the

world

around

you

Well

thats

what

you

can

experience

by

lifting

weights

STILL

not

convinced

Here

are

more

reasons

why

lifting

weights

will

transform

your

life

Reduces

the

possibility

of

physical

confrontation

Its

a

sad

fact

of

life

that

there

are

guys

out

there

whore

just

looking

for

a

fight

And

whilst

its

best

just

to

avoid

them

sometimes

they

just

go

out

of

their

way

to

try

and

create

reasons

to

get

in

a

fight

Whilst

lifting

weights

and

getting

stronger

wont

help

you

defend

yourself

against

a

trained

fighter

it

will

make

average

Joes

think

twice

before

starting

trouble

with

you

Being

bigger

stronger

and

fitter

doesnt

automatically

make

you

a

better

fighter

but

it

does

put

doubt

in

the

back

of

most

guys

heads

What

would

change

about

your

life

if

the

fear

of

physical

confrontation

was

reduced

to

almost

nonexistent

Well

thats

what

you

can

get

through

lifting

weights

STILL

not

convinced

Well

heres

my

last

ditch

effort

You

look

good

naked

Purely

The

Too

Summary

In

case

you

couldnt

be

bothered

reading

whole

thing

and

the

end

here

are

the

ways

that

lifting

weights

will

transform

your

life

Feel

incredibly

powerful

happy

Become

physically

Increase

your

testosterone

Teach

you

the

value

of

hard

work

You

look

good

naked

And

SO

much

more

If

just

one

of

these

sounds

like

a

change

youd

like

to

see

in

your

life

then

I

HIGHLY

recommend

you

get

your

pale

white

pimply

arse

into

a

gym

If

two

or

more

of

these

are

changes

that

you

could

really

see

benefit

in

then

there

should

be

no

questions

about

it

Why

lifting

weights

and

not

just

sport

in

general

Yes

you

can

get

a

lot

of

these

benefits

from

doing

other

forms

of

exercise

but

there

are

two

main

reasons

why

Ive

specifically

focussed

on

lifting

weights

and

why

I

believe

its

more

beneficial

than

other

forms

of

exercise

Its

the

only

activity

that

gives

you

everything

Obviously

lifting

is

not

the

only

way

to

achieve

all

these

different

benefits

individually

but

lifting

weights

is

the

ONLY

place

to

get

ALL

of

them

in

one

go

You

can

get

certain

elements

from

a

Sunday

morning

boot

camp

you

can

get

others

from

playing

football

you

can

get

even

more

from

martial

arts

but

lifting

weights

is

the

ONLY

place

you

get

ALL

of

them

in

one

go

Incremental

measurements

One

of

the

elements

that

sets

lifting

weights

apart

from

other

physical

activities

is

your

ability

to

measure

your

gains

in

the

tiniest

of

increments

You

can

measure

extra

rep

An

extra

kilogram

of

weight

on

the

bar

The

loss

of

from

your

waist

line

The

addition

of

to

your

arm

girth

The

ability

to

see

progress

in

the

smallest

of

increments

lets

you

know

that

youre

taking

steps

forward

and

when

you

can

see

that

what

youre

doing

is

making

a

difference

theres

FAR

more

incentive

to

keep

going

In

Conclusion

The

balls

in

your

court

You

know

what

you

can

get

from

lifting

weights

and

if

youre

lacking

in

ANY

one

of

those

areas

you

cant

blame

anyone

but

yourself

So

get

up

off

your

arse

get

into

a

gym

and

start

experiencing

all

the

incredible

benefits

that

come

from

lifting

weights

NOTE

Always

get

a

qualified

trainer

to

show

you

how

to

lift

If

you

dont

get

your

technique

right

you

can

end

up

just

hurting

yourself

Cant

one

This

is

deadon

Leigh

However

most

of

this

applies

to

pretty

much

every

exercise

out

there

and

all

of

it

ESPECIALLY

applies

to

martial

arts

So

you

might

wanna

mention

somewhere

that

if

you

dont

like

lifting

weights

for

whatever

legitimate

reason

other

than

being

a

lazy

arse

you

might

as

well

just

get

the

hell

up

and

simply

EXERCISE

And

also

eat

healthy

Leigh

LoGun

August

Yeah

good

point

mate

Though

in

my

expereince

whilst

other

activities

can

give

you

some

of

these

lifting

weights

is

the

only

place

where

you

get

ALL

of

these

together

Sean

August

Work

out

with

a

team

or

buddy

Just

like

a

mens

group

or

AI

you

see

the

REAL

results

and

feel

the

REAL

effects

when

you

have

coachesteam

close

friends

behind

you

riding

your

ass

and

screaming

at

youpushing

you

further

than

you

think

you

can

Its

sure

as

hell

scarier

But

its

a

more

and

intense

Rory

I

highly

recommend

checking

out

a

guy

called

Sean

Nalewanyj

Whilst

looking

for

a

Nonexistant

miracle

body

building

method

I

stumbled

across

his

name

and

not

only

was

he

the

only

Natural

Bodybuilding

Coach

I

could

find

who

stressed

there

is

no

magical

method

to

big

gains

but

explains

all

the

truths

about

muscle

building

and

how

to

build

your

dream

body

in

minimal

time

how

to

eat

live

and

work

healthily

and

be

able

to

push

towards

your

goal

no

matter

how

how

hard

it

gets

This

page

has

some

info

and

links

to

his

books

and

latest

works

Check

out

The

Truth

about

muscle

building

in

the

top

right

corner

I

found

it

really

useful

Oh

Interesting

stuff

mate

Ill

check

it

out

when

I

get

some

spare

time

Coldman

August

This

is

great

and

all

but

I

can

achievegetgain

most

of

these

things

by

doing

other

stuff

The

only

thing

I

cant

get

is

a

muscled

body

but

when

I

WAS

working

out

there

was

no

difference

in

the

results

I

got

with

women

Id

much

rather

do

something

I

enjoy

than

wasting

it

in

the

gym

doing

something

I

hate

Feeling

powerful

happy

energetic

pushing

through

fears

get

outside

my

comfort

zone

etc

are

all

things

I

already

get

from

approaching

and

talking

to

women

Leigh

LoGun

August

Yeah

you

can

achieve

most

of

them

by

doing

other

things

but

lifting

weights

is

the

only

place

Ive

found

that

you

can

achieve

ALL

of

these

in

one

go

If

the

gym

isnt

for

you

hate

is

a

very

strong

word

Might

be

a

good

starting

place

to

look

deeper

then

thats

fine

Theres

more

than

one

way

to

skin

a

cat

But

in

my

experience

the

gym

is

the

most

effective

place

Breathe

August

Lifting

weights

always

bored

me

Didnt

hate

it

but

it

just

never

caught

on

Cycling

in

contrast

is

just

my

thing

But

even

more

important

than

whether

you

lift

weights

ride

a

bicycle

or

whatever

is

in

my

opinion

THAT

YOU

DO

HAVE

AN

EXERCISE

REGIMEN

Without

physical

exercise

you

will

not

likely

have

the

energy

to

sustain

an

interesting

lifestyle

Nothing

drains

your

energy

more

than

being

physically

inactive

Leigh

LoGun

August

Great

to

hear

youve

found

what

you

love

mate

The

word

hate

popped

up

in

your

last

comment

so

I

thought

there

might

be

something

there

but

if

its

just

boredom

then

its

probably

nothing

Breathe

August

It

wasnt

my

comment

It

was

Coldman

who

mentioned

he

hated

lifting

weights

Leigh

LoGun

August

Sorry

mate

My

bad

I

replied

to

the

wrong

comment

Adam

August

I

think

this

is

probably

my

favourite

article

on

AI

mainly

because

I

can

relate

to

all

of

this

When

I

wanted

to

start

changing

my

life

lifting

weights

was

a

pathway

that

showed

me

that

you

can

achieve

what

you

set

you

mind

to

with

effort

and

consistency

Its

also

great

because

you

can

measure

how

much

weight

you

have

lostgained

over

a

certain

amount

of

time

and

compare

what

you

used

to

lift

to

what

you

can

lift

now

and

know

that

youre

getting

stronger

For

me

it

is

by

far

the

easiest

way

to

feel

powerful

and

in

control

of

my

life

and

it

is

a

great

starting

block

for

anyone

wanting

to

build

confidence

But

the

real

benefits

come

when

you

commit

to

it

Awesome

post

Leigh

Leigh

LoGun

Great

to

hear

you

enjoyed

it

And

thats

a

really

great

point

that

I

didnt

mention

about

the

incremental

measurement

Im

going

to

edit

the

article

now

and

add

it

back

in

I

think

what

you

are

trying

to

say

about

working

out

is

great

Recently

I

have

stumbled

upon

a

book

called

Convict

Conditioning

In

here

the

authorPaul

Coach

Wade

advocates

calisthenics

over

weightlifting

for

a

good

reason

And

not

just

any

calisthenicsold

school

calisthenics

Weightlifting

as

it

is

only

came

about

the

midlate

century

Before

that

athletes

have

always

used

calisthenics

to

build

strength

AND

endurance

Weightliftingespecially

barbellsdamage

the

muscles

surrounding

the

shouldercompress

the

spinal

discs

just

to

name

a

few

things

weightlifting

does

to

the

body

Good

old

pullups

pushups

and

what

not

use

the

muscles

of

the

human

body

as

they

were

intended

He

talks

about

progressions

in

technique

like

going

from

wall

pushups

to

one

arm

pushups

This

gives

Oh

I

just

scrolled

back

up

to

see

someone

else

posted

something

similar

argh

My

apologies

So

I

guess

the

only

thing

I

have

to

add

is

weightlifting

is

potentially

harmful

to

your

overall

health

Regardless

I

think

youre

doing

great

here

at

AIkeep

it

up

Leigh

Ive

heard

of

that

one

before

From

what

I

know

its

an

amazing

book

Great

to

see

someones

using

it

Ive

never

been

through

it

but

Ill

definitely

check

it

out

Bas

August

Maybe

the

fitness

thing

deserves

a

forum

spot

since

it

is

always

a

beautiful

subject

of

discussion

And

my

cents

Body

By

Science

I

mentioned

it

at

the

forums

already

but

in

short

it

is

a

research

based

high

intensity

fitness

programme

minutes

a

week

or

for

some

people

even

minutes

every

two

weeks

and

thats

it

with

results

that

easily

blow

away

day

a

week

routines

And

the

thing

I

love

about

it

is

that

it

is

backed

up

by

solid

science

And

whats

best

about

the

Body

By

Science

Big

Five

workout

is

that

it

facilitates

ass

kicking

barrier

pushing

every

week

like

no

other

training

scheme

does

Plus

you

get

the

inevitable

ass

kicking

results

for

free

just

as

a

bonus

Sounds

awesome

mate

Ill

check

it

out

guille

August

wow

thanks

bas

im

very

interested

in

stuff

like

this

will

check

it

out

and

i

second

your

idea

it

would

be

great

to

have

a

part

of

the

forum

dedicated

to

fitness

Grant

August

I

have

to

admit

I

wasnt

really

sold

on

the

goalsetting

and

being

better

in

bed

But

when

I

saw

that

it

protected

from

the

black

plague

that

sold

me

straight

away

But

on

a

more

serious

note

this

is

one

of

my

favorite

articles

on

here

I

second

the

idea

of

having

a

section

of

the

forum

specifically

for

working

out

where

people

can

post

what

they

know

and

we

can

get

some

guides

going

for

the

basics

of

how

to

reduce

fat

build

muscle

increase

endurance

and

whatever

other

goals

people

want

Leigh

LoGun

August

We

use

to

have

one

but

it

didnt

get

used

enough

so

we

just

merged

it

Ill

tell

you

what

start

a

thread

about

it

and

Ill

sticky

it

If

it

gets

popular

enough

well

turn

it

into

a

section

Grant

August

Im

doing

some

research

on

it

right

now

so

Ill

get

it

started

up

in

a

day

or

two

Leigh

LoGun

August

Great

to

hear

mate

sleepWalks

October

ok

I

followed

your

advice

and

Im

in

the

gym

now

Didnt

plan

to

make

this

into

a

complicated

research

project

though

So

one

more

question

Which

style

of

training

do

you

recommend

It

seems

there

are

several

and

I

feel

rather

lost

Leigh

LoGun

October

Good

on

you

mate

Its

great

to

see

youre

taking

action

The

style

of

training

you

take

on

really

depends

on

what

youre

trying

to

acheive

What

do

you

want

to

get

out

of

it

Lose

fat

Build

muscle

Increase

your

cardiovascular

endurance

Whats

your

goal

sleepWalks

October

Most

importantly

I

want

to

support

the

personality

change

that

is

building

a

habit

of

taking

up

challenges

and

decreasing

time

of

lazily

sitting

around

doing

nothing

Also

less

important

Id

like

to

lose

some

weightfat

but

only

about

Those

are

the

main

things

Apart

from

that

Building

muscle

may

be

a

nice

thing

just

to

experience

how

it

feels

but

otherwise

it

isnt

a

priority

Health

gain

is

important

for

me

too

but

I

guess

there

isnt

much

of

a

difference

to

this

concerning

various

styles

of

training

Cardiovascular

endurance

is

something

I

guess

I

dont

have

to

worry

about

I

can

do

cycling

for

several

hours

a

day

without

problems

Leigh

LoGun

October

First

of

all

Im

not

a

personal

trainer

and

I

havent

assessed

you

physically

so

everything

Im

saying

is

just

guess

work

You

should

always

speak

to

a

qualified

professional

before

making

decisions

on

these

kinds

of

things

Heres

what

Id

recommend

Get

a

book

called

The

Testosterone

Advantage

Plan

Its

a

great

book

about

lifting

and

health

and

strength

and

most

importantly

for

you

building

testosterone

thats

going

to

push

you

harder

and

get

you

challenging

your

world

more

You

can

check

it

out

here

Testosterone

Advantage

Plan

Its

also

got

workout

routines

and

diet

plans

in

the

back

of

it

that

will

give

you

a

good

place

to

start

Also

I

would

HIGHLY

recommend

you

get

a

personal

trainer

even

for

just

a

few

sessions

just

to

show

you

how

to

do

the

lifts

properly

Bad

form

and

technique

can

cause

you

a

lot

of

problems

down

the

road

as

Im

finding

out

Hope

that

helps

sleepWalks

November

Thanks

Right

now

I

have

noticed

something

else

Its

quite

interesting

to

see

what

happens

when

the

lifting

gets

tough

ie

to

observe

the

different

voices

in

my

head

either

telling

me

to

push

through

or

to

give

it

up

because

it

is

too

difficult

Lately

I

noticed

that

one

voice

will

keep

telling

me

something

like

this

OK

we

had

this

already

weve

been

at

this

point

You

can

either

use

brute

force

to

do

this

other

repetition

or

dont

Guess

what

Its

not

worth

the

effort

Guess

why

This

has

nothing

to

do

with

your

goals

at

all

Practicing

lifting

weights

to

get

better

at

life

is

like

practicing

playing

football

to

get

better

at

cooking

Youre

basically

wasting

your

time

here

Go

out

and

do

something

you

really

value

I

have

to

admit

that

there

seems

to

be

truth

in

this

reasoning

Lifting

weights

is

really

hard

and

if

it

is

not

directly

connected

to

something

I

really

value

I

cant

see

where

to

take

the

discipline

from

Any

suggestions

Do

you

agree

with

this

analysis

Where

exactly

do

YOU

take

your

motivation

from

Leigh

LoGun

November

For

me

it

is

helping

me

move

closer

to

my

goals

My

goals

of

being

healthy

of

being

physically

strong

enough

to

take

on

any

physical

challenges

of

being

able

to

walk

around

with

my

shirt

off

and

not

feel

embarrassed

of

what

Ive

let

myself

become

of

being

able

to

run

around

with

my

kids

when

Im

etc

Whats

your

dream

Does

any

of

it

involve

being

strong

and

healthy

Hey

man

great

article

but

why

the

assumption

that

get

your

pale

white

pimply

arse

into

a

gym

Not

all

white

people

are

out

of

shape

big

stereotype

there

and

viewers

from

other

ethnicitys

will

immediately

be

turned

off

by

this

there

are

people

of

all

races

that

need

to

get

to

the

gym

and

more

people

will

view

this

site

if

you

write

it

as

such

leigh

November

Hey

mate

It

wasnt

intended

to

be

any

kind

of

racial

stereo

typing

It

was

more

of

a

throw

away

line

Most

peoples

arses

are

relatively

white

as

they

dont

tan

them

much

and

if

theyre

not

well

they

probably

dont

need

to

read

this

article

as

theyre

either

a

stripper

or

a

professional

body

builder

Thats

all

Nothing

I

find

lifting

to

be

very

therapeutic

It

quiets

the

mind

gets

you

breathing

deeper

and

all

sorts

of

stuff

tends

to

come

to

the

surface

that

I

dont

otherwise

think

about

But

I

can

get

it

out

of

my

brain

during

the

workouts

And

of

course

when

finished

my

mind

is

quiet

and

I

feel

good

about

myself

for

continuing

to

better

myself

All Stories Places to Go 5 Things to Know Before You Go The Pioneer Woman Mercantile By Brenda McDearmon 01 Comment Planning a Trip to the Merc If The Pioneer Woman Mercantile in Pawhuska is on your list of places to go this year here are five ways to make sure you get the most out of this fabulous womantribe experience The Mercantile is a beautiful building from the windows to the floors One The Lines Can Be Pretty Long My friend Jana and I set out from Cushing Oklahoma with plans to arrive in Pawhuska midmorning Our plan was to first get the whatswhat then eat lunch in the restaurant after which we would fill our shopping bags with Merchandise and then leisurely drive to Tulsa to catch our flight back to Austin However even with a 1015 arrival the line was out the door and the wait time for those at the end of it was 2 hours 45 minutes Who would have thought the line would have started forming at 600 am Theres Jana back there peeking around the crowd She kept our place in line while I went for a look at what it was we were waiting for Two Skip the Restaurant if Youre Short on Time There were chalk markings on the sidewalk that indicated how much time it would take to get inside While Jana and I hoped these dashes across the concrete might not be altogether accurate it quickly became apparent that they were So after an hour in line with two to go we made a tough decision We would skip the restaurant and get something to eat from the Mercantiles Grab Go deli section where there is still a line but not quite as long We bought a couple of yummy meals in togo containers mine was Pioneer Womans pot roast and really short on time consider purchasing a few pastries when you check out at the Grab Go and skip the upstairs bakery too I bought two maple scones two almond twists and one chocolate croissant to take home for sharing with my sweetie Jana bought a cranberry orange muffin and said it was delicious with big juicy bits of cranberry Cookies however are only available upstairs The Grab Go deli line has plenty of PW favorites like lasagna pot roast soups and sandwiches Three Know Ahead of Time What You Might Want to Buy Before you head to Pawhuska take some time to peruse the Mercantile website where you can get a good idea of the items offered inside the store That way if you cant carry everything out of there that you wish you could lug youll be able to pick and choose based on what can be ordered online after you get home Jana and I both bought a couple of super cute shirts The candles smelled fabulous and everyone was raving about the plastic wrap All the women at the checkout were dressed in black and were wearing single strands of turquoise beads I wish I would have gotten some but didnt see them Mercantile mug I ended up getting I had seen a large display of them when we first walked through By the time we got back there was one left I still love my mug Heres a link to order one from the Merc Four Plan Ahead for a Surprise Book Signing If Ree makes a surprise visit to the store and you want her to sign a book youll have to go downstairs to buy one where there may be another long line so if you already own a PW book take it with you Shes also gracious enough to sign your napkin I wish I would have taken my Charlie the Ranch Dog book for Rees signature but I didnt think of it I also wish I would have thought to buy a couple more of her childrens books to have autographed as birthday gifts Five Be Prepared for the PostMerc Crash I had a hard time going to sleep the night we came home from Pawhuska a hard time waking up the next morning and a hard time getting back to reality Jana said it was the same for her She said it felt to her like we had spent the day in a total nother world and I had to agree We giggled the whole way home What we didnt buy we talked about getting the next time We also looked up PWs recipes for some of the things we didnt get to eat and resolved to make them soon This is kind of what we were hoping to eat that day LOL Get PWs chicken fried steak recipe here Basically our powwow in Pawhuska was just an incredible day long lines and all Thanks Ree You made our day Week Month Year Here are a few more helpful hints There are free municipal parking lots close by While waiting in line to get into the restaurant it is acceptable for your party to split up while some keep your place in line the others can go inside and shop the Mercantile shelves Bring an umbrella Carry a water bottle Dont wear heels Ladies whose limo drivers drop them at the door still have to wait in line Menus are passed down the line which gives everyone a chance to decide what theyll order once they get seated A lot of women make this a generational occasion If you bring greatgrandmother make sure you have a portable chair for her to sit a spell If the weather is a little wet or chilly she could wait across the street in the car until youre further up in line Large groups may be split for restaurant seating The doorkeepers are good historians comedians and will do their best to inform and entertain the crowd with tales of historic Pawhuska as well as stories about the dishes appearing on the menu and the chefs behind the scenes The staff is very hospitable and are more than happy to take lots of pictures for you Restrooms are available inside the store but not at neighboring businesses Mondays are the least crowded days And here are a few more pictures The Drummond kids are just as cute and polite in real life as they are on TV And Paige Well look how sweet she is I sent this picture to my college son right away Hey son would you like for me to try to get you a Pawhuska bride Hes a barista after all so they already have that in common I think thats probably all you really need for a good arranged marriage isnt it Two people who can both make a great latte Yes that will surely work out Here we are with The Marlboro Man himself Just in case you havent read it click here to get your copy of the love story that started it all on a ranch in the middle of nowhere where all the recipes have to be approved by hungry kids cowboys and a very savvy businesswoman with red hair and cute boots Encouraging intentional adventure across the state line where the wind comes sweepin down the plain in Ooookkklllaaahhhooommma PS If youve got an Oklahoma hankerin for some of that chicken fried steak be sure you have one of these It makes cleaning the cast iron skillet a breeze PSS Be sure you sign up here to receive my weekly newsletter Tags Mercantile Pioneer Woman brenda Hi there My name

invasion is four days away and Aang begins to feel nervous about confronting the Fire Lord Feeling that he is unprepared he trains constantly and his anxiety causes him a string of nightmares whereas his lack of sleep results in mad daydreams After three straight days it takes the collaboration of Sokka Toph and Katara to get him to finally sleep and feel confident about facing the Fire Lord Meanwhile Zuko learns about an upcoming war meeting However what he learns leaves him uncertain of what he must do Synopsis The gang arrives at the Black Cliffs which is where the invasion force will meet up Aang is stressed about the invasion being only four days away and that night he has a nightmare in which he comes face to face with the Fire Lord only to be told by him that he forgot to wear his pants Meanwhile Prince Zuko is enjoying his life of royalty and making the most of it while his relationship with Mai is going well Aang finds himself without pants in one of his nightmares After staying awake training for the past twentyfour hours Aang tries to get some sleep only to have another nightmare this time he forgets to study for a math test administered by Ozai He wakes up and starts walking around some koala sheep Katara also gets up and asks him to try to get some sleep As this happens Mai tells Zuko that there is a war meeting coming up to which he says that he was not

should talk his problems out Sokka dons his beard and mustache from The Headband and tries to be a psychiatrist talking to Aang about his feelings on confronting Ozai When Aang simply asks how to calm himself Sokka suggests that he should scream into a koala sheep which he says is a pillow This does not make Aang feel better Meanwhile Zuko confronts Azula about the war meeting asking why she got invited and he did not She says that he did not get an invitation because it is obvious he is supposed to be there and goes on to tell him to stop acting like a paranoid child and go to the meeting He says he will not go Next Toph tries her method on Aang giving him a brutal massage using logshaped pieces of earth and earthbending to create hard vibrations When this fails she offers acupuncture with a boarqpine Aang terrified of the idea runs away screaming Aang kisses Katara in a hallucination That night the gang asks Aang if he is okay to which Aang answers that he may feel a bit better They all go to sleep but the Avatar has another more frightening nightmare this time a jumbled montage which consists of snap images that express Aangs fear and stress over the upcoming battle He wakes up and because of the stress he states that he will not sleep until the invasion The next day Aang now very tired from lack of sleep daydreams about professing his love for Katara and passionately kissing her calling her his forever girl After Meanwhile Zuko is told by a servant that everyone is waiting for him at the meeting and he realizes that his father does want him there Aang on the other hand is not doing so great and as he tries to train he starts hearing Momo and Appa talk He hallucinates them fighting samuraistyle as koala sheep cheer them on and also sees a sixarmed Guru Pathik floating on a cloud with two bowls of onion and banana juice singing about chakras After the meeting Zuko tells Mai that his father treated him like his righthand man However he confesses that although he acted like the perfect prince he was not being himself Katara Sokka and Toph succeed in encouraging Aang to go to sleep Aang now completely exhausted wanders around the campsite and stumbles across what he takes to be a bed of clouds He immediately dismisses it as another hallucination His friends inform him that it is a bed of koala sheep wool which is indeed real and they spent hours working on it so he could sleep Aang continues to insist he is not ready but Katara and the rest of the gang encourage him with Katara saying that he has been training for this since the day they met and that he is ready Aang finally calms down and falls asleep He has one last dream in which he appears before the Fire Lord Ozai says that he forgot his pants but Aang merely smiles and says that it is in fact the Fire Lord who has forgotten his pants Ozai covers himself embarrassed that his royal parts are showing Aang with his nerves gone can Written by John OBryan Directed by Ethan Spaulding Starring Zach Tyler Eisen Aang Mae Whitman Katara Jack DeSena Sokka Jessie Flower Toph Dante Basco Prince Zuko Dee Bradley Baker Appa Momo Also starring Mark Hamill Firelord Grey DeLisle Azula Cricket Leigh Mai Brian George Guru Pathik Additional voices Dee Bradley Baker Production notes Transcript Main article TranscriptNightmares and Daydreams Avatar Extras Main article Avatar Extras for Book Three Fire Series continuity Sokkas Wang Fire beard previously seen in The Headband and The Runaway is seen once again when he dresses up as a therapist The Ozai portrait Aang uses for target practice is the one he made out of noodles in The Headband Sokka is forging the armor for Appa which he told Toph he was planning on making in The Runaway When Mai asked Zuko why he would want to even go to the war meeting and tells him to remember how the last one ended she was referring to Zukos banishment the details of which were revealed in The Storm This is the second episode in which Team Avatar struggles to get sleep The other one is The Chase The purpose of the war meeting Zuko attends is revealed in Sozins Comet Part 1 The Phoenix King in which Ozai reveals his plan to destroy the Earth Kingdom with the power of Sozins Comet leading Zuko to defy his father and help the Avatar When Aang daydreams that Momo can talk the lemur practically calls Aang insane This is similar to the dream Sokka said he had in The Storm in which Momo could talk as well and said some very unkind things Goofs During Aangs therapy session with Sokka Sokkas eyebrows are quite noticeably thicker as if a part of the Wang Fire costume yet they remain the same color as his normal eyebrows When Aang is talking to Katara right before his hallucination of the kiss the sun is rising and still slightly hidden behind the horizon however only a few seconds later none of the sun is hidden behind the horizon During Aangs first romantic daydream of Katara she is wearing shoes She is barefoot however both when Aang dips her and when he snaps back to reality While Sokka is making the armor for Appa the arrow over the head can first be seen to show three circles on it but during the invasion the circles are not seen The tree that Aang pretends to be Ozai seems to disappear after he starts talking to Momo Aangs bed has two circles a large one at the bottom with a slightly smaller one at the top In the final scene however it is just one large circle Throughout this episode Aangs arrow tattoo on his forehead is noticeably longer than usual The tip of the arrow is below or even with his eyebrows If this was true Aang would not be able to wear the headband without hiding his eyebrows or showing the tip of the arrow as seen throughout Book Three This mistake happens in many Book Three episodes Trivia The animal that Toph tries to use on Aang for acupuncture is a baby boarqpine Appa fought an adult specimen in Appas Lost Days In Aangs first dream he is seen dressed similarly to Goku from the Dragon Ball series in orange clothes with a belt and large spiky dark hair The rug Aang uses to cover himself when he has no pants on has the Air Nomads insignia on it while Ozais has the Fire Nation insignia on it In his second dream Aang appears similar to Vash the Stampede This is characterized by the ear piercings hair style high collar coat and chainbelt contraption that holds up his pants The way Aang moves toward Ozai is also similar to the running style used in Naruto In Aangs final dream his appearance strangely mirrors that of Ozai most noticeably in his hair style In Aangs hallucination where Momo and Appa have a sword battle Momo is dressed like the comic book character Miyamoto Usagi This episode pays homages to several movies such as The Lord of the Rings The Ring The Grudge A Nightmare on Elm Street and several other fantasy and dreamrelated movies Like many of the fights in Avatar the fights in this episode notably with Appa and Momo are influenced heavily by various anime video games and movies Ozais Bowserlike appearance and Momo and Appas fight reflect the anime Samurai Champloo and there are influences from Cowboy Bebop and FLCL such as some of the motions and actions of Aang which are reflective of Naota from FLCL During Momo and Appas duel in Aangs hallucination the duel was similar to Obiwan Kenobis and General Grievous duel in Star Wars Episode III mainly due to Appa using four swords at once reminiscent of Grievous style in which he uses four lightsabers Momos design in the sequence is similar to Toshiro Mifune s character Kikuchiyo in Seven Samurai right down to his facial fur being noticeably shaggier emulating Mifunes trademark threedaygrowth beard stubble Momos katana positions and kimono design look similar to Jinno from Afro Samurai Guru Pathiks sixarmed appearance holding a guitarlike musical instrument is reminiscent of the Hindu goddess of knowledge Saraswati who is popularly depicted with six arms holding a veena Guru Pathiks accent and manner of dress are typical of Indian Hindu holy men When Zuko passed the gate to go to Mais house one of the fans behind him was wearing an outfit like Tophs At the beginning of the episode Aang has a flower in his mouth which is similar to the wheat or twig Jet usually had in his mouth Likewise the Forever Girl line Aang says is referring to the generic endings of most romantic comedies in theaters This is the third episode in which Aang is afflicted with nightmares the other two being The Storm and The Avatar State When Toph told Aang to go to sleep her chibi head is from the Avatar Bending Battle short except her headband is changed to match its color in season three rather than the season two version portrayed in that Avatar short The suit that Zuko wears when he goes to visit Mai is called a changshan In the dreams Ozai has the same voice as he normally does but Aang does not hear Ozai speak directly until the final episode In one of Aangs dreams Aang is wearing his season one and two outfit Toph is wearing her season two outfit and Zuko has his ponytail while Sokka and Katara are wearing their Fire Nation outfits The voices Dee Bradley Baker uses for Momo and Appa in this episode are similar to the voices he uses for Spidermonkey and Cannonbolt from Ben 10 Alien Force This is the second episode wherein Azula appears without makeup Categories

A

Fall

of

Marigolds

is

a

historical

fiction

novel

by

Susan

Meissner

The

story

weaves

between

Taryns

life

in

September

and

Claras

life

working

as

a

nurse

in

the

Ellis

Island

Hospital

in

These

womens

lives

will

touch

each

other

without

them

ever

meeting

living

years

apart

Each

woman

has

loved

lost

suffered

tragedy

and

are

hiding

in

worlds

where

they

each

feel

safe

Clara

never

leaving

the

hospital

and

her

dormitory

on

Ellis

Island

and

Taryn

working

in

a

fabric

shop

living

above

it

and

raising

her

daughter

alone

Clara

happens

upon

a

beautiful

colorful

scarf

with

marigolds

when

she

sees

it

wrapped

around

the

neck

of

a

man

who

will

become

her

patient

at

the

hospital

in

The

scarf

flutters

through

fingers

making

its

way

from

to

where

the

scarf

will

save

Taryns

life

but

takes

away

from

her

at

the

same

time

The

scarf

is

lost

to

Taryn

until

a

photo

from

the

past

comes

back

and

leads

her

back

to

the

scarf

and

maybe

a

new

life

Marigolds

they

are

very

resilient

flowers

they

arent

fragrant

like

roses

and

sweet

peas

but

they

can

stand

against

odds

that

the

more

fragile

flowers

can

not

They

can

bloom

in

the

fall

even

after

a

frost

even

after

other

flowers

have

up

Susan

Meissner

This

quote

from

the

book

is

so

relevant

to

both

of

these

women

They

both

are

like

the

Marigolds

that

grace

the

scarf

they

both

are

resilient

live

quiet

lives

with

purpose

are

hiding

from

their

past

and

living

suspended

they

cant

seem

to

move

forward

In

life

things

change

and

for

Taryn

and

Clara

circumstances

change

and

both

are

pushed

into

facing

secrets

and

a

reality

that

changes

their

lives

forever

Will

they

choose

to

be

happy

Will

they

hide

or

step

out

of

their

comfortable

lives

and

push

through

to

face

the

truths

As

I

read

the

book

I

was

faced

with

the

same

dilemma

Clara

faces

when

she

makes

a

discovery

in

a

trunk

that

she

keeps

hidden

What

she

discovers

could

change

her

patients

life

She

plans

on

telling

him

but

how

and

is

this

secret

really

something

that

he

should

discover

As

you

read

the

book

ask

yourself

if

this

fell

into

your

hands

what

would

you

do

Would

you

tell

and

is

it

something

that

needs

to

be

told

I

enjoyed

the

book

and

the

back

and

forth

of

time

periods

The

book

was

a

fairly

easy

read

and

the

historical

pieces

involving

Ellis

Island

Hospital

were

fascinating

The

doctors

and

nurses

that

treated

the

immigrants

were

heros

in

my

eyes

I

felt

as

though

I

was

walking

the

halls

with

Clara

and

standing

on

the

sidewalk

with

Taryn

as

she

watched

tragedy

unfold

Sadly

I

missed

book

club

and

the

discussion

but

heard

from

everyone

that

they

had

a

great

discussion
