holy shit. that is nothing short of phenomenal.

i know the classic getbig "jokes" are on the way, but before that starts i have to put in my two cents and say that's one of the most inspirational things i've ever seen.

I don't find that sad at all..rather, I find it extremely positive and inspirational..People who have "more to work with" and do absolutely nothing is sad

shut the fuck up

that man is inspirational..if anything I feel sad for myself, for bitching and complaining while not making the most of what I have.

I will try to think of him whenever life gets me down or I am not trying hard enough

Damn! That is awesome! Loved when he pinned that guy in the wrestling match!  :o

Makes me ashamed whenever I've put a half-assed workout in the gym.

For once I think this thread deserves no bashing, guy is inspirational and makes you realise how much bullshit excuses are for anyone with 4 fully functional limbs.

Kind of makes you realize that half the things we bitch about in life are not even worth worrying about. Especially when someone like this has overcome such overwhelming odds.

That not only inspirational but awesome, this kid made it without any arms or legs, imagine what this kid will be like when he applies this kind of discipline and fortitude for the rest of his life.

And his trainer, what can I say? The guy is an incredible trainer with a great functional program that works for him. If I even had a chance to meet this guy, I'd have alot of questions for him. For those of you who think that personal trainers are useless......take a look at this guy!!
