I watch the movie the gladiator with russel crow before war takes place
on sunday.  I watch that movie before battle, to gain courag and
strength.  I will become maximus on sunday,  I will fight like him and I
will kill any kilo or competitor that stands in my way.  Every kilo I
kill will get me closer to victory, respect, my national title, my world
team and my olympic team.  Every kilo I kill in battle will get me
closer to MY gold medal.  I will go out fighting like maximus, I will
have pride like maximus, I will have heart like maximus, and I will die
trying like maximus.   The warm up room is where us gladiaters prepare
for battle.  I am scared for what awaits me on the battle field, but  I
look around at my california strength gladiaters  and we give each other
courage.  Now I am ready, now I am mad, now nothing can stop me.  The
chip on my shoulder gets big and loud and fuels me to fight with
everythign I have.  As the doors open to the battle field I walk with
pride and courage.  Right in front of your eyes I turn from a slave into
a gladitater.  I grab the chalk from the battle field.  I rub it on my
hands to feel what victory will taste like.  I stand beside my
galdiaters becuase we are a team, becuase we are all fighting for the
same thing.  Becuase without each other we would fall short.  I stand by
Donny Shankle, Caleb Ward,  and Max Aita  lead by my king Dave Spitz
and my honorable coach Glenn Pendlay.   Men that I would die for, men
that I will fight with and smile in victory with. This Gladiator Jon
North goes to battle for California Strength.

Another great one Any Given Sunday.

JOn your freakin’ hardcore bro!!!

Do you watch Gladiators before or after you read “Goosebumps”?

After Gladiator I would watch 300… that movie gets the blood flowing 

nothing beats “rob roy” for inspiration.

My new insperation is listening to The God himself Michael Savag before practice or before game day!!!   That man gets me going big time, he does not take any shit, and I love it,  I want to be the Michael Savag of weightlifting!  2012 savag nation! hahaha

This is horrible but what motivates me is when I see older women who apparently let them selves go by following a poor diet and no physical activity..
 
They most likely have low self esteem which may lead to neglecting the way they look, dress, and socialize in society. Some women just loose hope and give up ..              I ALWAYS want to feel confident and good about myself by never letting my self go!

Yea people who let themselves go is motivating. Unless it was rob roy or somebody else as bad ass!

there is no excuse for laziness.. I dont care who you are and how bad ass you are… NO EXCUSES!

 

I dont think you know who Rob Roy is. Simply being Rob Roy is an excuse for practically anything.

wow Russel Crows new movie Robbin Hood sucked!  It was the worst movie I have ever seen!  I just felt like expressing my feelings about this subject.  Does any body agree with me!??  

 
It wasn’t in the same league as Rob Roy, that’s for sure.

Yea that movie was crap.
I even told Jon not to go to it cause its crap end hestill went.

Robert Roy MacGregor, (baptized 7th March 1671 - 28 December 1734 usually known simply as Rob Roy or alternately Red MacGregor,
was a famous Scottish folk hero and outlaw of the early 18th century,
who is sometimes known as the Scottish Robin Hood. Rob Roy is anglicised
from the Scottish Gaelic Raibeart Ruadh, or Red Robert. This is because Rob Roy had red hair, though it darkened to auburn in later life.

 Rob Roy was born at Glengyle, at the head of Loch Katrine, as proved
by the Baptismal Register of Buchanan Parish. His father was Donald
MacGregor, and his mother Margaret Campbell. He later met Mary Helen
MacGregor of Comar, who was born at Leny Farm, Strathyre, and they were
married in Glenarklet in January 1693. Ultimately, they had four sons:
James (known as Mor or Tall), Ranald, Coll, and Robert (known as Robin
Oig or Young Rob). A cousin, Duncan, was later adopted.
Along with many Highland clans, at the age of eighteen Rob Roy
together with his father joined the Jacobite rising led by Viscount
Dundee to support the Stuart King James who had been deposed by William
of Orange. Although victorious in initial battles, “Bonnie Dundee” was
killed and their fortunes fell. Rob’s father was taken to jail, where he
was held on treason charges for two years. Rob’s mother Margaret’s
health faltered and then failed during Donald’s time in prison. By the
time Donald was finally released, his wife was dead, and his reason for
living also gone. The Gregor chief would never return to his former
spirit or health.
Rob Roy was badly wounded at the Battle of Glen Shiel in 1719.
 Rob Roy became a well-known and respected cattleman — this was a
time when cattle rustling and selling protection against theft was a
commonplace means of earning a living.Rob Roy borrowed a large sum of
money to increase his own cattle herd, but due to the deception of his
chief herder, who was entrusted with the money to bring the cattle back,
Rob Roy lost his money and cattle, and defaulted on his loan. As a
result, he was branded an outlaw, and his wife and family were evicted
from their house at Inversnaid, which was then burned down. After his
principal creditor, James Graham, 1st Duke of Montrose seized his lands,
Rob Roy waged a private blood feud against the duke until 1722, when he
was forced to surrender. Later imprisoned, he was finally pardoned in
1727. He died in his house at Inverlochlarig Beg, Balquhidder, on 28
December 1734
Glengyle House, on the shore of Loch Katrine, dates back to the early
18th century, with a porch dated to 1707, and is built on the site of
the 17th century stone cottage in which Rob Roy is said to have been
born. Since the 1930s, the Category B-listed building had been in the
hands of successive water authorities, but was identified as surplus to
requirements and put up for auction in November 2004, despite objections
from the Scottish National Party.
 Daniel Defoe wrote a fictionalized account of his life in 1723 called Highland Rogue,
making Rob Roy a legend in his own lifetime, and influencing George I
to issue a pardon for his crimes just as he was about to be transported
to the colonies. The publication of Rob Roy, by Sir Walter
Scott in 1817, further added to his fame and fleshed out his biography.
William Wordsworth wrote a poem called “Rob Roy’s Grave”, during a visit
to Scotland (the 1803 tour was documented by his sister Dorothy in Recollections of a Tour Made in Scotland). Adaptations of his story have also been told in film, most famously the 1995 Rob Roy directed by Michael Caton-Jones and starring Liam Neeson.

I’ll have to learn more about Rob Roy.
