Sam Portland REALLY hit home with me and those who helped check the videos. He "gets it". Listen to what he says about #LivingTheCode. He has NO excuses, he charges through discomfort and is making shit happen! I SEE the fire in his eyes and feel his passion from "Across The Pond"!

He drove his tractor tire down a highway to make shit happen! Isn't that illegal??!! ha ha

Notice how he REinvests his income into making his business better and improving his knowledge.

As Sam says, "There's NO limits."

Thank YOU, Sam!

Check out Sal, working in his garage and yard to take care of his kids and show them how to have passion for health and strength!

Sal's kids are tearing it up..... bodyweight..... the power wheel... a sandbag... and the technique is TIGHT!

I see his kids having fun training, no one yelling at them, just allowing them to enjoy the experience and fall in love with fitness. I can see Sal's passion for strength with his books scattered on the floor, all types of equipment squeezed into that garage. I KNOW the feeling, you fall in love with training and you want to keep getting different strength toys to take things to the next level.

This was a VERY tough choice, there were MANY participants from overseas in various countries and English was not their first language. Many training compounds in garages, back yards, basements and MANY in freezing cold temps!

I am embedding ALL the participants below, this was amazing, had me choked up, on verge of tears and struck a VERY deep chord with me.

I am beyond shocked at how many videos were submitted and I will ALWAYS REMEMBER WHERE I STARTED.... My friend calls this "Boots on the ground".... remember where you came from and always be humble 🙂

Please check these videos, they will inspire you on your toughest days, because I know all too well, we ALL have them, NO matter how strong we are.....

As you can see, these videos are ALL very unique in their own way, everyone inspires me. I suggest you watch them all, clear your head, and listen to the stories of these men who rise above and have gotten comfortable being UNcomfortable.

Thank you, My Bruthas!

Peace! Underground for LIFE!
