'The House' is a truly amazing athlete. He manages to balance the pressures of family with the demands of being a professional athlete.
He has maintained his humility and sense of humour. Yes, Big Erik is truly the 'people's champion'.
Only now do i understand why 'the house' is arguably the most 'respected and admired' of the Pro's today.
Yes, of the current crop of Pros on the circuit at present, Erik stands head and shoulders above them all. He is intelligent, witty and brings a unique charm not witnessed since Arnold graced the stage all those years ago.
Again, RESPECT for Erik!

watch the video and see his pics from high school, he was naturally massive, almost looked photoshopped.
-
Awesome video. Why does he look like he's chewin' tobacco?? :D

True dat.
The only pros I can think of off the top of my head are Sergio Oliva and Ronnie Coleman.

BayGBM, don't act like you're not supporting them. :D

Erik is a man who has his priorities in order. He puts his family first. He has a 'rea' job and trains hard and clean.
I only wish more 'so called' Pros cared to take a leaf out of Erik's book. Yes, we would have a much healthier industry if there more of his kind.
'The House' is a symbol of how this sport 'should' be.
-
im now a house fan. another man like myself who has to survive off 5-6 hours of sleep a night.
-
'The House' is doing his little bit to try and restore dignity and respect to an industry that is now languishing in the sewer.
Bottom line, the mainstream don't respect bodybuilders. They see them as drugged up little men crying out for attention.
Thank Christ we have someone like Erik. Yes, Erik has ethics and values. Qualities which are sorely lacking in what has become a disgraceful and pathetic sport.
Keep flying the flag Erik.
God bless, you have your heart in the right place!

Hank Wood...why do peosn like you think humilty is so important? So people can be become bigtime internet posters like you? So he can make the little people like you feel comfortable with your crappy lives?
All the losers on this borad always make that comment about the people they like and for that reason.
Succesful people are NEVER humble. Sure, some pretend to be but that's just not how life works. It's too hard to get to the top trying to act like everyone else.
Hope this helps.

That was an awesome vid, its nice to see someone so grounded and family oriented working hard at life, their career, and not living the stereotypical bbing lifestyle "living the dream" one (x) at a time. He seems like a good guy.
-
Erik, this planet would be a better place if there were more people like your good self to share it.
Erik, you are humble and proud. You fight the good fight. I just wish the 'powers that be' were able to recognise in some way 'the good' you have brought to this sport.
Look, we all agree that bodybuilding has some serious credibility issues. Maybe 'The House' can work his magic in redefining an industry that is hemorrhaging from deep-corruption and flagrant drug abuse issues!
-
He should straighten his teeth then he would be more marketable. :-\
-
Erik breaks the mould when it comes to the bodybuilding lifestyle.
Erik is far removed from the 'sordid drug circus' that the sport has become.
Erik does not buy into the deborchery and abuse that is so much a part of the sport today.
Yes, Erik actually works a regular job. He enjoys time with his family and friends. He has balance in his life.
Erik is a remarkable human being. He believes in health, fitness, purity and devotion. YOU Rock the house big Erik!
-

Gotta agree with this. If you ever see an ad or promo with this guy, it never shows his face.
I would never use this guy in any advertisements.
-
Erik is beautiful on the inside! Sure, he is facially repulsive. And yes, he does look like he has been run over by a truck, but come on, it is heart and soul that makes him appealing!
Erik may never have been able to get the ladies like a Bob Chick.
Erik may not have the graces and charisma of a King Kamali.
And Erik may not have had the magnetism of a Craig Titus.
However, what Erik has above all else is a true sense of family. That's right, 'The House' is a committed and devoted family man and that speaks volumes.
Bottom line, who cares if the women find him physically repulsive!
-
Team Frankhouser!!!
-
'The House' is fully employed. Yes, he earns an 'honest' living!
Erik actually respects woman!
'The Fank-meister' even enjoys the unconditional love of family.
My point is, wouldn't bodybuilding be an amazing thing if we had role models like Erik?

Erik is a very spiritual man. He embraces all that life has on offer.
Erik is also very giving. He actually spends time with his fans offering them training and diet advice.
Above all, Erik cares. Yes, he cares for family and friends. He believes in truth and existence. I only wish more so called Pros would follow Erik's unselfish lead!

He's an Atheist dumbass.
-
Erik believes in the power of prayer. His sense of peaceful and serenity is testamont to this.
Good on the guy. He has his 'house' in order.
Many here, respect Erik because of the fact that he has 'never' sold-out to this industry. Like many, Erik is reviled by many aspects of the sport yet chooses to focus on the positives!
I only wish more Pro's had Erik's sense of spirituality!
God bless.

and he doesn't fuk trannies either like some ::) people on here do.
-
Erik is very disciplined in all areas of his life. Put simply he makes time. Time for family, training and 'real' work!
This industry needs to take a good long look at itself. Erik could be used as a 'bench mark' for where this sport 'should' be heading!
All current Pros must be able to prove that they earn a 'legal' income before they can register with the IFBB. They must show legitimate tax receipts.
Erik earns a legitimate living! And so should all the other Pros....The corruption, dealing and pornography that is endemic to the sport must be railed in! This is a start!
Keep flying the flag for truth and honesty Erik! And yes, maybe one day we can make this so-called sport legitimate!

One word describes Erik; HUMBLE.
Sure, Erik loves the iron-game but it is 'family' that brings warmth to this big guys heart!
Erik shares a very close friendship with Flex. I think Flex is a calming influence on him. They both have much in common. They both share a deep commitment to faith and family.
God bless both you guys!

Gayest posing trucks ever.

Family and 'real work' are his foundations.
Just wish more of these juiced-monkeys would follow his impressive lead!
