I just listened to the summary of Can’t hurt me on YouTube and they just listed the lessons from the book. Is the entire book still worth reading?

He’s definitely raking in the money off you simps






I’m just kidding I liked can’t hurt me too. I can’t see this next one being good though. What more is there to tell? Seems like this second one will truly be a cash grab piggy backing off the success of his first.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

ITT people that couldnt fathom doing a fraction of what this dude's mind is capable of talking on the sidelines. I can see if his attitude is not your cup of tea but at a minimum you have to give this man some respect for his discipline.

Disciplined in what? He’s not an elite runner. It takes more discipline to take a rest day even though you might enjoy running, so your body can recover and perform optimally.

He does long distance sh*t and is ultra consistent to impress fat asses on the couch.

Is that a typo? Not an elite runner?

You dont have to like the guy personally, but to say he's NOT an elite runner is up there with saying the earth is flat.

https://ultrarunning.com/calendar/ru...e-624db84c3c72

Just look at that record, and more importantly, the dates between races. In one instance he ran FOUR 100 mile races in less than 40 days.

It would take your average person more than 40 days to recover from running ONE hundred miler.


Also, look at where he places in those races. You see all those #1 finishers? You see all those top 5 finishers?

What’s his best marathon time? Oh that’s right it ain’t good.

Look at the placing a for those events. Many of them of them he’s placed behind a woman. That’s not elite. Aleksandr sorokin is an elite runner

One runs 100 miles In 19 hours vs the other doing it under 11 hours. See the difference

I see what he's saying. He's an average runner that trains a lot. He's also wrecking his body with his mind over matter approach.

Give me a break, he runs ultra marathons. That's pretty much it.

Strong this. They're good marketing, but not ideal for a realistic mindset. You'd burn out and never actually be able to sustain an extreme lifestyle, unless you're mentally ill. Plus life is not enjoyable without balance. (Ded fkn Srs)

If it’s just genetics that separate us then why should I bother reading his book lol. He’s built different with an unhealthy (defined as destroying your own self) obsession with distance running.

Him and I, and most people, define success differently

He's accomplished a lot but if you can't listen to the guy and tell hes got a few screws loose then I'd question your judgment. I haven't heard many of the guys he worked with singing his praises.

So in other words you have to own a world record in order to be considered elite? LMAO never change misc.


Cross Kobe Bryant and LeBron James off your list of elites guys... Michael Jordan was better!

I was bored and read his first book, borrowed it from a co-worker, all it really is, is the usual self help crap that they all spew, and he pretty much runs extremely long distance races.

He DID become a Navy Seal, but he never served in combat, and they pretty much made him a recruiter.

Surely you can see there’s 8 hours between them. He’s not kobe or Lebron he’s like a D3 walk on that rides the bench. And that’s being generous

The motivational part isn't really what made his book great. Yeah it's no different than any other self-help book spewing that stuff. What's more impressive and enjoyable is the way he turned his life around. You have to respect what he did and even if you don't buy into the self-help rhetoric it's nonetheless extremely difficult to go from where he was and doing a complete 180.

Misc looks at all the fatties and laughs saying they have no willpower then there's one who actually turns it around and misc criticizes that as unimpressive as well. This forum literally hates just to hate, which is the largest red flag someone is a loser themselves.

Cool, he turned his life around, but there are people who practically worship the guy, and it's almost become a joke.

Like, "I have the original strain of covid, should I rest up, nope, I'm gonna go run 30 in this negative below temperature, STAY HARD!!!!"
