"I signed up on a forum for the 4th or 5th time and left after one day (partially because I hated the name I put up) mainly because I thought if I just stick with sharing knowledge I'd be fine, but I wasn't. The majority of people on this forum just love to knock on me and ridicule me and put a bad taste in my mouth. They're not my friends, they're a lot older but most of the time don't have much value in the way of fitness because they don't really give a damn about grouping together and helping others, they're out for themselves and just have a place to let out their old man grumpiness along with busting each others balls. That's not the type of environment I want to associate with, I need to finally accept that." Don't have much value in the way of fitness? Maybe he needs to learn that putting one foot in front of the other and simply going for a walk, will make someone fitter than sitting at a keyboard typing shit. Fitness is not rocket science, the more you move the fitter you become. No members here said a thing to him.....it was "guests" His problem is that he is a liar and a sneak....it's not old man grumpiness that made him unpopular here, it's his "poor me, they are picking on me " bullshit after he got caught in lies Fuck him.....let him chimp walk off into the sunset

I hope Big Ben loses about 40 lbs. in the new year. I believe he'll feel much better about himself. Carrying the fat boy cross is a hard one.

I hope he get's the help he needs!
Not a stab at him in anyway, I've never spoke to him but reading his blog is like reading the script of a therapy session.

The Chimp Walk Kid is a big, blubbering crybaby who always blames everyone else.....nothing changes with him Any problems he's had here, he caused himself He thinks guys here are stupid, but he doesn't realize that they have been around and can't have the wool pulled over their eyes He's a true product of "our methods" and fit in perfectly on JPs board of numbskulls

" A Gift To Myself Happy Holidays everyone, hope you're getting what you need for the season and being with the people you love. Hope you get plenty of cool stuff for Xmas especially for the kids, I got my shopping done a while ago for really on the two people in my life, my mom and my wife. It has been a hard year more than most in recent times and still here, fighting and making the most of it. The problem is at times, I get so caught up with certain things that have affected me in ways I don't wish to discuss. This season did get a little harder since I lost a family member less than a week ago and although I wasn't close to him, he was still family and I hope his kids will be ok, I wish I can be with them especially one that is only a couple months younger than me and grieve with them. It's difficult at times coming to grips to how much of a rollercoaster this year has been and where I want to be along with where I feel most valued at. When it comes to online stuff, yeah I sell a few things here and there and share my knowledge of fitness in my own way but especially with all the ups and downs emotionally, I got caught up in arguments and put myself in situations where ball busting was just a little over the top. I signed up on a forum for the 4th or 5th time and left after one day (partially because I hated the name I put up) mainly because I thought if I just stick with sharing knowledge I'd be fine, but I wasn't. The majority of people on this forum just love to knock on me and ridicule me and put a bad taste in my mouth. They're not my friends, they're a lot older but most of the time don't have much value in the way of fitness because they don't really give a damn about grouping together and helping others, they're out for themselves and just have a place to let out their old man grumpiness along with busting each others balls. That's not the type of environment I want to associate with, I need to finally accept that. I' am very grateful for the positive things that are happening in my life and that in itself is a gift. The gift I feel I need to give myself is to trust more of my intuition, be aware of what I'm going into and do better as a person. That sounds like more than one gift but it's a tie in. This coming year will have many unexpected things but the end game is to have a greater attitude and bask in the things that do matter more than the trash that can swarm on you if you let it. Value what works and surround myself with people that lift me up more than letting in those that make me feel like I have no value to myself or others. One group I'm very thankful for is the Isometric Group I'm a part of on Facebook and how much those guys inspire me everyday to do what I love and that it is contributing to something. It isn't an ego thing to give a gift to yourself if you truly understand the concept of it. It doesn't have to be physical, it can be something comforting from an emotional and mental format that is meant for you. Although I believe in helping others as much as possible, we also need to make time for ourselves and reflect on the important things that keep us going and becoming better in the process. We are only human and can do so much before it consumes and overwhelms us. We need to learn to love ourselves as much as we love the people in our lives and what we love to do. This is the only life we have and each day should be a time to know that you still can do a little better and have greater attitudes towards yourself, your family, friends and your overall health. Don't be afraid to gift yourself and make it valuable to you and something that is important to help you on your journey. Have the most amazingly awesome holidays wherever you and if you're just by yourself, make it fun and something that makes you happy. I'm grateful for all of you and you have helped me learn things I continue to discover. By Ben Bergman " Touching....isn't it ? This guy is better than sleeping pills......ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Unfortunately what I have found many times is the ones who dispense these wise words and guidance are often the most screwed up, and don't live by what they preach.

My best advice to him at this point would be to lose the ego and the stupid online 'forums' and go volunteer to help out those that can't help themselves, he'll soon realize just how lucky he really is...

Having read you past post, I must say that I am 33 and you are right: in general, younger generations (mine and now teenagers) are very entitled to their opinions. As if anyone actually cared... Their internet persona is very important for their egos, they are prone to emotional outbursts vs researching facts, they feel important and unique, have a hard time coping with responsibilities and hold little value to the transmission of the past (family, ancestors, culture, etc...). As I said, in general. I have an expression in spanish which I use quite a bit and translated it means: go to work in a mine...self explaining, yet some people still don't get how hard has life been to many past generations, since the earliest culture: war, slavery, famine, etc... Yet they managed to survive and transmit what they were to a new generation. That is why Europe is falling, the transmission is being cut.

Yet they managed to survive and transmit what they were to a new generation. That is why Europe is falling, the transmission is being cut. When I was much younger I always loved to sit and talk (and laugh) with 'elderly' people and listen to their stories and general knowledge about most things. Times certainly weren't as easy in many ways as compared to these days but people overall seemed to be happier back then. Everyone didn't walk or drive around with their guard up all 'angry' about the smallest of infractions, either real or imagined. Again, I wish him no ill will, and I mean it with the utmost sincerity that the way out of the 'noise' going on in his head is through devoting himself to helping others who are much less fortunate in life, but like so many in the younger generation(s) that I seem to encounter these days this will have to start with ditching their words that reek of instant gratification and 'participation trophy'...
