I posted a great video yesterday about Marlus Darkblade, and a few subscribers said it's sad that you don't have snow in good old Scandinavia at this time of year.
But I talked to my man Umer the Frost Giant, Umer the primordial giant of Norse mythology.
And I said, You know what, my subscribers have requested this.
And he said, You know what, since you have done your deadlifts, I will grant you this wish.
So, behold behind you, behind me, a good winter landscape.
And then I thought I will title this video White Friday.
Now, I'll be completely honest with everyone.
I don't disavow Black Friday, I don't completely disavow consumerism.
Instead of saying coomer, you can say consumer.
Of course, there has to be a limit to everything.
I don't think it's good to consume just for the sake of it, but I would be a hypocrite otherwise because I have not this year but last year I bought some camera and audio equipment on Black Friday.
So, I just want to be honest and not be all sanctimonious and be holier than thou.
Also, White Friday, Black Friday, we have two new releases for Legia Gloria.
Never discounts on Legia Gloria though, because I want to have something completely different for Lego Gloria.
The ultimate point to purchase something from Legia Gloria is if you have earned it.
So, it warms my heart to hear emails saying, you know what, I've been training hard for six months, now I've given up this vice or that vice and I feel worthy finally.
And then you ask for okay, what is a good size for my measurements, etc.
And that's also something I want to be ultra clear with.
The perfect opportunity to buy Legia Gloria is when you feel ready.
So, that is what I want to do because this is a pirate ship.
I'm the captain, and I only want worthy crew to be on this metaphysical pirate ship.
So, that is the rules for wearing Legia Gloria that you are worthy.
So, you must overcome yourself, otherwise, you are not allowed to wear it.
So, you can't watch porn, you can't go out getting drunk, you can't be addicted to marijuana, you can't be out of shape, you need to train something on a regular basis.
Now, of course, what you train is up to you as long as you stay fit and healthy and can represent the brand in a good way.
So, that is what is up.
So, yeah, new hoodie right here.
A bit of a different cut.
I always experiment with new garments, new designs.
So, if you see the difference from the Perseus hoodie, is that this goes up a bit here.
So, it's comfier and cozier for winter.
I'm super happy with this garment.
And Legia Gloria here in silver.
So, yeah, if you think I look aesthetic, that's the reason.
So, yeah, that is the main point I wanted to say today.
Then, of course, since I am in a forest of enlightenment, I might as well ramble on a bit more.
It's a bit harder to walk now, I must admit to everyone.
So, I saw a comment also yesterday about are you still gaming even as a father?
Yes, absolutely.
And this is something I ma will make a separate video on later on.
You have to have downtime, you have to have breaks, especially especially if you're also caring for a small child.
You have to check out zone out sometimes and just focus on something completely different.
And after all, it's entertainment.
It's the same thing if you watch some sports ball or if you listen to some music.
So don't think this is propaganda from vicious forces that say, oh, you know what?
When you have children and when you're married, then you can't do any fun things anymore.
Then you must just do fatherly duties all the time.
Now, of course, you have to do a lot of more things, but it's simply not true that you can't do other things as well.
It's complete lies.
It's complete propaganda from people who don't want you to have children.
So don't neglect your mates.
Don't neglect your training.
Don't neglect your own interest.
Then, of course, it's also a matter of priorities.
You can't spend eight hours a day playing video games, of course not.
But you can at least spend an hour every once in a while to just have a meditative moment for yourself.
So that is something that I find very important to point out both to fathers so you don't feel bad because you do something you like because you need to take care of yourself in order to take care of others.
Simple as that.
Otherwise, you will be perhaps not as pleasant to deal with if you feel trapped or if you feel that you can't do things you like.
So keep that in mind.
You need to take care of yourself to take care of others.
You can quote me on that.
You can put a quote at your workplace or at your school.
And then people will say, oh, who is this wise man?
And then you will say, oh, it's a wizard from Lord of the Rings who goes around in forests and spreads wisdom.
Could be a fun thing to do.
So anyway, I don't know how long the snow will stay here in good old Scandinavia.
Will probably melt, but in a few days.
Who knows?
Otherwise, I will continue to make some snow videos.
I have a good few videos upcoming.
I thought to make this video today because it was a fun occurrence that we would have some snow.
So anyway, on to the next clip.
I will add some more top quality content to this fine video log before I end it.
Now another note on Ymir, the primordial Norse giant.
I will make more videos on Norse mythology actually because it's inspiring.
Now some guys ask will you do more strongman, etc.
But I will be completely honest with myself and with you, I don't have the genetic potential to be a strongman because I am muscular and I am well somewhat physically big, but I'm not a big guy for you in terms of being a literal giant.
So if you look upon strongmen, they're overall big guys.
I am athletic and muscular and my particular athletic talents are more suited to perhaps martial arts.
So then it's better for me to invest time in well leveling my martial arts game instead of trying to become a strongman since I don't have the genetic potential for it.
So yeah, as I talked about before in terms of, in terms of what you can, your mythological or fantasy thing you can be, and if I'm an elf, elves aren't really good at strongmen, whereas giants, of course Ulmir, for example, are.
So if you look upon good strongmen, they are built in a certain way.
It takes certain genetics to be a strongman.
So that's why I don't really yeah, I don't want to go, never want to go that route, because it's it's pointless.
Then, of course, it's fun to train strongman.
So I'm not saying that oh, you need to be a genetical giant to to train strongman, but keep that in mind.
Sometimes your genetics are more suited to one thing rather than another.
So yeah, that's why I don't really continue, never continued strongman, despite my glorious triumphs in in terms of those things.
Then, of course, I'm not gonna sell myself shorter.
I am yeah, of course, strong in in a lot of ways too, but yeah, not not that strong.
Now, on a completely different note, I stumbled upon okay, not sure it looked as aesthetic on camera as it did just stumbling upon it, but anyway, I will put in one other clip in this great video log.
So yeah, see you in the next sequence.
Speaking of giants, there is a giantess Skadi, a goddess of sorts of winter, and apparently she was a bit jealous that I had done deadlifts in Honor of Umir, the primordial giant.
So she said, if you want a crisp and clean winter so you can take epic pictures and make good videos, you have to do four sets of six repetitions at 180 kg in the squats.
So naturally, I want to ensure an aesthetic winter for everyone.
So I did just that in the Temple of Iron.
So that being said, I wish you all a prosperous weekend ahead.
