My Ugly Confession - Cheat Day

[fredesti1]

BEER!!! and poutines* ( a poutine is a french Canadian meal made from fries topped with shredded cheese or grain cheese and gravy!! ) you can even add hamburg or chiken in there! its delicious! haha

[bearhardman]

McDonalds every time! maybe a bit of pizza too

[benadleburg]

Country Cooking. Fried Chicken, Potatoes and gravy, and sweet tea!

[tikay69]

Belgian beer!!

[FlashoutLive]

I know its asian, but CURRYYYYYY

[MertOKTN]

''Let's rebel against this... nazi.''

Bwahahahahaha, you made my day! Thanks! My favourite cheat foods are pistachios.

[JakobNielsson]

There is a difference between having normal, healthy bodyfat where you have maximum strength and being fat. Although you dont have a six pack you can still be lean and healthy. I'd say its healthier to be at 14% than 8% in general.

I'm european btw - from Iceland, where loads of "chubby - albiet strong" men come from (Benedikt Magnusson, Jon Pall Sigmarson etc) hehe, and I dont mind not having sixpack, as long as I'm relatively lean and healthy! My favourite cheat would be a greasy pizza :)

[TheDsdasd]

A KFC tower burger mmmm

[iplayrugby1]

im 100% backing elliott. james was most probably bullied at school and could well be an only child so i think he deserves some slack, and if he happens to be english i apologise on his, and englands behalf. Although i have not actually had a cheat day in around 3 years as far as foods concerened, i do put away a hell of alot of beer.



[1BlackCotton]

Mmmm i LOVE CHEAT DAYS!!!!!!! Burger, Beer and a GOOOOD Womeeeenn :))

[micah693]

Pizza, Cheeseburgers, Brownies, cookies, ice cream, french fries, onion rings, tacos, soda, beer, whiskey, pop tarts, little debbies, nachos, chips, pies, cakes, chinese, the list goes on. My weight lifting buds call me "Fatty" and im the leanest one of them XD

[mrcooolbrah]

i know this is old as shit but id love to see that guy say that exact thing to louie simmons hahah the biggest dickhead

[YoungFitnessAddict]

You train athletes and being an athlete isn't about having chisled abs or what ever. this guy james should of thought of that. My favorite cheat food is CHEESECAKE hmmmm :)



[changoboy79]

Denny's pancake puppie sundae super delicious 

[JtheCrowe]

I'm not American, but I do confess to a deep love of Pizza. And self-saucing chocolate pudding. And some dark beers :P

[stockcarkid09]

I would like to say that I am also a personal trainer and bodybuilder and come show time I am around 4 percent body fat.....I am weaker and crabby so when not doing a show I like cheese burgers and beer and all that nasty but good stuff in the off season I like to be about 12-18 percent bodyfat it's not a pretty but I am a stronger more happy person

[FoolishInTheEnd]

is asia they consider 50kg overweight for women

[orientrat]

@FoolishInTheEnd they also dont have t&a in asia. and the dudes look like chicks... very attractive

[MrChonito18]

Red robin  BURGERS YEAGH

[jpeacock1234]

This nob doesn't speak for all Europeans!

[Russellt0228]

i think single digits are dangerous to maintain. you feel sluggish and weak, unless you are a pro-model, or bodybuilder then fine, but if t he majority of ppl walked around under 10% ppl would be tired, slow, and depressed/angry all the time. thats btw not debatable it absolutely 100% true.

the side effects of not enough fat in the body is quite dangerous, James like the rest of these so called 'fitness gurus' is a moron

we all want to look good but we need to feel good too

[NJnaturalBB]

@Russellt0228 I usually maintain single digit, although I consider myself more of a bodybuilder then anything I do, Sure I would be stronger in strongman and powerlifting, bodybuilding will always be my #1 sport

[jjohns4380]

@mickeyfinity haha whatever dude

[Smashwell1]

i watched this video eating a plate of nachos drinking an ice cold bud! im english not all europeans are this stupid.

[jjohns4380]

@mickeyfinity yea I have heard of rugby and those guys aren't half the size of NFL players. Neither do they have half the athleticism haha try again Mr. Snob

[mickeyfinity]

@jjohns4380 You must have your glasses on back to front. The problem with you saying NFL players are twice the size is firstly; they're not, and secondly, even if on average NFL players are bigger, it's not exactly a fair comparison. Football demands a far lower level of fitness because of the nature of the game meaning the training for each is quite different. Besides that, your remark about Europeans is just stupid and in no way can you tell me a Rugby player is skinny... which was my point.

[jjohns4380]

James is obviously a hater... Football is a mans sport and we who play football eat cheeseburgers, skinny ass Europeans make me sick! Get buff like me and Elliot!

[mickeyfinity]

@jjohns4380 Skinny ass Europeans?? Have you heard of Rugby? I'm from the UK and i'll tell you for a fact, if you're speaking to a fella who says "Ballyhooed", you're talking to a tit. I'm sorry my American friends, but i think you've just had your first run in with a 'Snob'. A strange creature that keeps it's nose in the air and gets out the shower to urinate ;)

[MrConnor2011]

Lets attack James fuck it. James u r a dick!!! im from the uk and i love watching elliotts vids. i learn new things all the time.James u r obviously a boring little bastard that sits in the gym counting carbs n shit n possing in the mirror wishing you could have the strength n fitness of elliott n the other guys that work with him.You live only once and if elliott and the other guys can eat the things they love and enjoy themselves THEN THEY ARE HAVING A BETTER LIFE THEN U.! PELICAN FACE MOFO!

[krb0123]

FRENCH FRIES!!!

[bryandaza]

PIZZA

[Diatonic135]

CHOCOLATE!

[Strongpipes]

Oh man. I love me some Sonic burgers!

[genericteen]

obviously james is a weak judgemental prick, please dont think bad of us europeans im british and you are one of my inspirations! :D i personally like bodybuilding and occasional powerlifting and i quite enjoy being kinda chubby for most of the year, and sorry but i love mcdonals :')

[NcTong01]

Wait...so what gear have you ordered from GenXXL?

[someguyhunter]

lol greek statue template. what a fucken retard. haters gonna hate.

[val154]

Fuck James! Fucken hatter! Proabably a pussy ass P90X user who thinks he is a real man because you can see his colon through his six pack! A real man shows the body of work. If I ran into Elliott or James in the street I will tell you whos ass I would kick without thinking twice about being hurt! Pussy!

[Nagraath]

Sorry. I disagree here. I can see that the guy in the email is being a tard, but those guys would be considered fat by any other standards. I mean, that's no meant to be offensive, it's simply a fact. Big shoutout to those guys that want to change their life anyway.

[deansavking]

Elliott, Im from the UK and my personal favroite cheat food is burgers also, however equaly i love sweets and oreos! I pay for these in the fact that im 110 KG (242 pounds) however I am aslo strong as fuck! and to be fair im a similar build to you! I train to become strong because I love training and the life style that comes hand in hand. I dont train to "look pretty" or to keep my waist trim, and i will put 100% that i train harder than this moron who emailed you!

[LoudVoiceInTexas]

hmmmm i call it bbba beer, buffalo meat, baked potatoes, and apple pie....I am quite sure james was college educated in a left wing institution and can't even understand true freedom or actual joy... Officially I feel sorry for such ignorance as his...

[machackertk]

AHAHAHHAHAAH FUCK YOU JAMES strengthcamp kicks ass you enjoy your egg whites and being scrawny while i eat my burgers!

[blues260]

actually james is an idiot.

But there is 1 thing where he may not be wrong. Americans are fat. not every one and you find fat people not just in america , but the average american is fatter then people in other countrys.

[DtFaN93]

i have to say, being american that does piss me off most europeans smoke every second of the day or as least that is the sterotype... while americas sterotype is obvisouly being fat... no one is perfect and it sucks that some stuck up prick has to try and force us to asume we must have "Single digit" body fat %, that guy really needs to grow up im 17 and i know that you just dont write hate mail like that. he might be "fit", but it seems to me he aint to "bright" lol

[mattduck69]

yea man i love a god burger of course who doesnt and i think anther cheat is probably soft drink every hour n then

[cyspy]

I think all body types are fine as long as it's healthy. Bodybuilder, powerlifter, strongman, track runners, football players, baseball players, greek statue... whatever. If you're healthy, and like how you look, keep it up. When kept under control bodyfat is natural and healthy, and helps with exercise and general living.

Also; James is an uncultured ignorant idiot, unfortunately.

[TOMatoPASTE2]

@cyspy thanks for saying that. theres nothing wrong with being a chiseled 'statue' year round and there's nothing wrong with carrying (some) extra fat in order to achieve your primary goals whether they be maximum strength or just enjoying all that life has to offer. the most important message is that you are physically and mentaly healthy. james, you definitely do NOT need to be that lean to be healthy and your mental health and perception is likely unhealthy if you believe so.

[thepineapple1]

42 years old and is stupid enough to write bullshit hater messages over the internet? and didn't add absolutely any facts about himself. he probably thinks that being skinny with no mass on him is considered "ripped and jacked and pumped"...he probably weights half the my arm! xD he needs to go get laid in stead of typing all that crap!

[LTMagic21]

how can he call us mediocre? we own the world. chubby? we are the best athletic performing country in the planet. just because there are a lot of people that are fat, and rich, hence why they can afford all the food, doesnt mean that america and everyone in it is. idc about european standards, you all smoke a shitload thats why your skinny, and think your so civilized, and enjoy getting into wars that we bail you out of. stfu james.

[plocco]

CHIPS ALL THEY WAY!!! KETTLE COOKED SON !!

[tskfromnzl]

im not american bro, (new zealand); love a good steak, fish n chips, pizza, and of course the grog to go with that eh ;)

[T4NKD13S3L]

mediocre and chubby Americans? So is Ronnie Coleman and Jay Cutler mediocre and chubby? This guys is an idiot he'll probably burn himself out in a couple years because he takes himself so serious and has such ignorant standards of how the human body should look. Most Greek statues are based on real people and i would bet they were not half as fit as the statues made them out to be. Oh yeah and I'm also a fan of the beer and burger especially when they compliment each other.

[parkerman16]

i love beer and burgers lol

[ahmadhamad]

FUCK U JAMES.U CAN'T JUDGE AMERICANS BASED OFF A FEW THAT U'VE SEEN ON T.V. AND WE'VE ALL SEEN MANY FLABBY ASS EUROPEANS--WEIGHT LIFTERS OR OTHERWISE.U'RE AN IGNORANT, ARROGANT, WEAK ASS BITCH WHO THINKS HE AND EUROPEANS R GREEK GODS. NOW,ON TO THE CHEAT FOODS THAT KEEP ME BIG, SEXY AND PISS OFF JAMES: CHIPOTLE BURRITOS, BUFFALO WILD WINGS, PHILLY CHEESESTEAKS, FRIED CHICKEN,TRIPLE CHEESEBURGERS, JALAPENO POPPERS, THAI FOOD,PIE AND TRIPLE CHOCOLATE CAKE!MEET US IN THE WEIGHTROOM U PUNK ASS FAIRY

[100tonlifter]

Dear James, You are doubtfully what you say you are...I am PRETTY sure that you are a fat guy in the 1000 lbs area and the triple digit Body Fat% area. Before I continue I'd like to remind good ol' James that we saved their asses in WW1 AND WW2. Who knows though? Maybe he's a German European that still think that if you aren't blond and blue eyed you aren't worthy. Well "James", fuck you AND your country. Before you insult America again I'd like to point out that we'd crush you.

[krb0123]

hot wings pancakes chicken pit pie bacon and deffinately french fries. and fried chicken of course

[2112mike]

nah, he's a douche.

[spritz0]

Haters will always be there, ignoring them is SWEET!!! Enjoy your cheat days, we are a lot healthier than the majority of people... and a lot stronger!!

[Heatman225]

Wendy's Baconater and fries. Goota love the bacon.

[Ahmazing69]

Lol at  GMAIL-INBOX ( 175) ..El ur a busy man haha keep up the qood work

[unlockthepower]

James is an embarresment to the people of Europe

[buddhabassist]

I agree with you all the way Elliot, strong men should be able to drink a few beers here and there, good point too if the dude stays in single digit body fat he's probably not powerlifter material. Oh Elliot i'm probably around the same body fat as you maybe 13-15% but strong, You're not chubby Ell, rather be strong and have a bit of meat than weak and lean. Sounds like a little bitch to me

[singingbear78]

cheeseburgers are the shit I also love hot wings ... oh & fries of course !!

James .... have fun eating your salad haha

[bob2012isfake]

taco pizza hut and buffalo wild wing cant get enuf wings and ribs

[300Spartans1]

And also, what book would you recommend(probably yours?) for nutrition for football performance?

and also i have a question about the quality of foods we eat: It's almost IMPOSSIBLE to find grass-fed beef, or real milk straight from the cow, or almost any food actually. What am I supposed to do with that? Just try to get as close to it as possible? I really like eating grilled sausages(NOT "HOTDOGS") with cheese on top of it, but it isn't just meat inside, like you say. Is it still ok to eat?

[300Spartans1]

So i'm assuming its ok to have cheat days, especially for skinny bastards like me. But you also talk about how powders and pills are for pussies, yet you recommend cod liver oil, which usually comes in capsules. and I read that you also recommend protein powder, but that's for pussies. I'm assuming that by powders you mean gatorades and stuff like that? I might be wrong though, and I don't think i've taken a pill in the last 2 years so i'm good with that.

Just wondering what you think

[300Spartans1]

I have a question to Elliot,

I'll admit i haven't purchased your lean hybrid muscle ebook, and i'm not sure if this is the right book to buy or the other one you wrote as far as football performance goes, but you seem to talk about how man was supposed to eat, and i complete agree, but now you talk about cheat days and stuff like that. i love cheat days and i sure love eating 18" pizzas by myself, but that's not what man ate 100,000 years ago.

***question continues on next post here***

[jenniferinsanee]

ahahaha 'James' is a skinny 42 year old geezer. it probably makes him look really wrinkly.

my fav cheat foods: the pizzas, the breads and the cakes! AAAAAAH hahaha but only once a week or even 2 weeks.

[KakashiOwnage]

"Let's rebel on this..this nazi"

haha amazing line man made me laugh so much, I also call people like this guy nazis!! nice one!

[i0nPuNk182]

i would rather have strength than a super toned, one digit body fat, toned body... that means i would have mass like Elliott here... Elliott is a beast! I cheat everyday, like i'd have something pretty sugary, like cookies or ice cream... but i still try to maintain my muscle and strenghth :) again Elliott, you are a motivational BEAST i Thank you a lot for that, forget about that stupid critic, he's a shmuck

[squrrilblood]

you hit the nail on the head at like 5:30

this man doesn't seem to understand this is STRENGTH camp, not European Statue Camp. He clearly has no idea the work put in to gain true size and strength. and though i may be only 17 years old, i love my occasional cheat. i won't tell you what it is, but it starts with a "b-" and ends with and "eer"...

[samakaballer]

oreo blizzard from dairy queen. Also, chocolate milk.

[chadisballin]

this european dude is dumber than shit! my fav cheat food (and im proud of it) is a good old bannana split :)

[es6501]

man, stationed in Germany with the USAF and I 've developed love for turkish food. Doner Kebabs! Aside from that, i'm hispanic and eat spanish food, and love Italian food. Carbs and more carbs , but they come in handy for when i'm doing strength endurance programs workouts. Do your thing Elliot, you inspire alot of us to go the distance and forget the limitations, Mr. James,I don't know what part of Europe your at, but i'm pretty sure most of the euro guys i train with, would LOL at ur email.

[SAMDINGO12]

From Australia a beer and a suasage

[Adamblagden1990]

james sounds like an idiot, he doesnt represent the europen opinion id rather me double digit fat% and 4 times as strong as the average james who goes to the gym and sits on the bike and trys to give advice to everyone when hes weak and arogent... my favourite cheat meal is chicken wings!! i eat them by the ton!

[DarkWindNinja]

Almost forgot!...Kebabs fuckin rock!

[DarkWindNinja]

Well, Elliot is built like a brick shit house. and this guy claims to be single digit weight...he must look lyk a pube! BTW, Im from scotland, and by our standards your lookin good sir!

[passley77]

the james guy is a knob, he doesnt represent european opinion.

[estebonchung87]

bloody medium rare burgers and beers FTW...

it sounds like this dude burns MASS calories pinchin a loaf...lmao

[captainjosue]

Elliot, not trying to attack you as I'm with you. However, if words shake you up how strong is your foundation?

James needs to understand that his training is most likely weak ass bodybuilding crap while Strength Camp is about literally getting stronger and Elliot doesn't hide that. Elliot isn't trying to teach us to get lean and slim...he teaches us how to generate MAD strength. That is the perception you're putting out Elliot.

Chocolate Chip cookies

[phaedruslive]

@captainjosue don't liken that fagula to bodybuilding. he sounds like he has an abercrombie & fitch bitch-body. don't hate on us bodybuilding.

[pbplaya67]

tacos and chips

fuck u james

[AxPOTATOExxxxxx]

cookies!!!

[megmaconqueror]

Everyone has this opinion, but why the hell would anyone care about some stupid European twig that a newborn American can snap in half. And yes I said newborn -.-

Anyway, lets see. I'd have to say my favorite "cheat food" would be chips, like Doritos, nachos, tacos, bacon cheese burgers! XD lost more, but too tired to think of them.

[giocano2]

ive been putting that attitude that Elliot talked about in the lean hybrid muscle building and been getting great results. I wouldnt worry about the james guy its just people that haven`t got anything to do but bother people by internet.

Im american from a entire hispanic family (Mexican and Peruvian) that means a lot of meat and fats in tacos yummy defenetly a burger fan too I think my biggest problem is dieting, I find it really dficult.

[mickpend1]

Dont rise pall your efforts in what you do are inspirational chubby thats a cheap shot. what does he want you to do roll the 400 atlas stone for cardio.

[geno0607]

james i just broke our broomstick, can i borrow your body till i get a new one.

thanks in advance

[colonshaguar]

Elliot i totally agree with you with your perspective twords what james had to say. He shouldnt have even typed this email, because why would james care so much about you helping people out and giving your advise to certain topics which happen to be your expertise. james is a fucking retard as well as he said in the email he used to be 50 punds over weight and now that he is thin and weak he thinks he is better than every one else that has over single digits of body fat. james is probly so weak!

[KayImSeriously]

I happen to agree with James,,...,,, just kidding James, your a fag.

[biglogstrongman]

James is a fuckin' weak queer

Greek statue lol what a douche

[GeneticBeast16]

I hate James!!!

Who cares about Bodyfat???

I'm a Bodybuilder (16 y/o, 235lbs, 17% bodyfat), but I also do Strenght Training!

I LOVE Pizza, Chips and Beer!

1-2Cheat Days per week and about 3-6 beers per week!

Elliot YOU ARE GREAT!!!

[bamapat92]

Honestly, Americans are bigger than europeans, but that doesn't necisarilly mean that we have a lower body fat to muscle percentage. I have a friend who is 6 feet tall and fits in size 28 jeans, but has a body fat percentage around 30. Being thinner, does not mean being healthier.

[MasterShayde]

odviously this james guy doesnt do any strength athletics and is criticising strength athletes in general I think we should just ignore weak losers like this guy

[ElMoShAuN]

Makes me feel ashamed to have cocks like James associated with my continent of Europe. I can tell you now, James is a rarity.

[xxxsssxxxsss]

@ElMoShAuN

Haha. Don't worry. It won't be held against you.

[Tonster032]

Yah I have to totally agree with you brosky. I mean that guy is braging about having single digit body fat and looking like a european. Like seriously, these type of people shouldn't even be called men. Training for strength is much more useful then training to just to have abs. I'm sure this panzee is a low testoterone male who eats salads every night.

Anyways great videos, keep up the good work!

[budspotz]

I LOVE STEAK EGGS & CHIPS

[budspotz]

LOL tell that single digit bodyfat% guy to post a video of his max deadlift :P

[pman7185]

i know what u can do ive seen your body and and some of your workouts plus your great strength let him put up some of his clips and compare and lets see who comes up on top

[snipa555]

burritos and tacos from taco bell.

[murdanivia]

chicharrones (real pork rinds) and yueng ling beer. hellz yeah.

[doubleg35]

Hey elliot, your the best man, you guys on strengthcamp are the best. It sucks man cause I fractured my hand and now I am working out like a damn pussy bodybuilder with excercising that arent that strenous on my hand. Even people say Im losing fat, I lost alot of strength and muscle. I got so embarrased to losing an armwrestling match to my brother in law, I never felt weak in my life. All my raw training to seems to be going to waste. Whats my point, Strength and REAL mass is better, than james

[luvsam924]

Hot hot buffalo Wing with tons of blu cheese, McDonalds Snack wraps (crispy, Ranch) & coca cola!

[luvsam924]

I got your back man!

[jreily88]

As for cheat meals, I just go for whatever, donuts, pizza, burgers, hot dogs, etc. As long as you don't do it too much and lose focus of your goals, you'll be fine.

[jreily88]

"They would be considered fat-men by european standards." James, you really think that the guys elliot trains really give a rat's ass what europe thinks? And elliot, you make a very good point on low body fat levels affecting strength levels, because if you think about it, all of those guys in the met-rx world's strongest man competitions have fairly high body fat levels, and I haven't seen any of them with a shredded six pack, but they have a lot of muscle mass.

[jwire]

"Lets rebel against this natzi!" hahahahahahaha..im one of those aussie mates and i LOVE beer, i train 6 days a week, twice a day, and that beer on the seventh day comes close to the kind of satisfaction that a great muscle pump gives you..mmmm beeeeeerrr :)

[JSTONER82]

beer, corndogs, pizza, and soft pretzels are my favorite cheat foods

[EastVillage212]

FUCK the european my favorite cheat food is some GOOD OLD AMERICAN PUSSY!!!! FUCK YOU EUROPE FUCK YEA!

[justonesinglesecond]

james sucks balls

[nakimomankuma]

Fried chiken bro!! What a BITCH!

[surfinguy7398]

Fuck James... I love cake.

[minn8325]

I have a favorite Cheat restauruant it is called "Buffalo WIld Wilngs" and I am a candy freak!!

[deuceboii21]

5 scrambled eggs, 5 slices of bacon, 5 sausage links, 2 everything bagels...and one large glass of choclate milk!!!

[JuttMC]

Cheeseburgers , Sausages , Hot Dogs on White Bread , Beer and " Shot " drinks. I love these foods. I feel the " Greek Adonis " guys don't look too good when they have their shirts on - they just like an average human being. Yourself on the other hand it's clear to see you strength. Your traps' are prominent and a good general all round bulk. I know which physique I'd rather aspire to on that note.

[petessfs22]

Elliot...your a boss. Please dont ever let anybody like that get you down. Keep getting results and keep beastin'. Cheat meal - gotta go with thin crust pizza, and lots of it!

[HCPANTS]

Bacon

[clark650]

pancakes baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bighits1]

Disappointed with this man's views on your training, with is an inspiration to most of us. Favourite cheat food has to be the cheese and chips with a kebab!

[yasinpatel12345]

great vid elliot i guess the dude didn't realize you specialized in strength training as well the trainer is just jealous as all of them are when they see a young hard working guy lifting and pushing more weight than they dreamed of or deemed 'safe' and most trainers are weak using diet as an excuse to their lack of strength which should be a priority for the health clubs out there in my opinion because i've tried going low on body fat and though you might have an 8 pack your miserable and weak

[ChrisSalmond1]

The guy and the guy your talking about is an idiot. hes everything that real gym rats hate.

[Loswaldo]

Well Bro, I will start off by sayin I from England, and well this guy going on about Americans celebrating medocrity makes me laugh if anything they are the only nation around the world I can say strive to be the best at everything. Secondly I love cheat foods, Fried Chicken, Burgers and Beer. I would have to say European beers probably take the edge ahead of America but you have got some good stuff. Well thats all I really have to say Live strong bro.

[mrwestside1]

First of all there is a over weight issue over there in Europe too, so he can go some were with that bullshit. Second just because your in the single digits does not mean your necessarily in shape. Third my drug of choice is M&m's

[beingevil]

The first beer came from Egypt....

[coskunerdem]

As a aspiring bodybuilder i know the importance of cheat meals, and I'm currently in an offseason stage so you can say i have a few cheat meals in my diet haha. Anyway that guy also boils my blood, i dnt see you as chubby anyway, just on a good offseason and i believe it could only take you 10-8 weeks to look ripped, have a single digit bodyfat and look way better than that loser, but thats besides the fact, keep doing wut u do, keep motivating mate, coskun from australia :D peace out

[ghostfnfa]

MCDONALDS!!!!!!!

[seymond2000]

McFlurry thats my fav

[priceethewarrior]

I LOVE BEER FUCK

[kerley1992]

that guys talking out his ass, pizza is my fav cheat food..i have a large one once a week for my cheat meal.

[svcreeper]

well i'm fat as hell sooooo yea, what can i say i like my carbs hahaha.

[handsomezombie1]

Dude, i go to wing stop and get 20 wings and french fries, ummmmmmm. I also drink alot of gatorade, i might have a soda

[bernreuther]

You shouldn't call him weak. I bet he can curl like 135 pounds. In the squat rack.

What kind of arrogant ass sends an email like that to someone who runs something called STRENGTH CAMP? It's not the Biggest Loser, it's not a boot camp, it's for strength and performance. If they want to look like bodybuilders, they can go on a strict diet or join crossfit. That's not what these people are into. So he's lean. Good for him. I'd be more impressed by his discipline if he wasn't such an ass about it.

[dgwear69]

some people should learn to shut the fuck up. the day i talk shit about eliot or any of the guys ive seen in his gym wont be my day

[Dayberry]

I don't have a cheat food.. I kinda like to take a day and just eat very little.... I get so tired of eating that I just get to a point where I don't want to eat at all.

[nosebone69]

as a point of interest, the european obesity rates are actually surpassing america's, so while in little james' own little world europe may look like a bunch derek zoolander's, he is sadly mistaken. so i have a couple words for ya, you cockney prick: FUCK YOU!!

as for my cheat foods (and i also maintain a lean physique year round without holding my head over a shitter), i prefer chips, beer (canadian beer), pizza, spaghetti, etc.

[millarsnotdead]

im from england, u fuckin rock <-- i hope u read this

trey brewer is a good example of how bodybuilders dont look good all year round

[dirtybruno2]

exactly. female volleyball players are fit! zero body fat supermodels arent fit

[benjameow]

taco bell's entire menu + mt dew = heaven :D

[benjameow]

James is a douche. low body fat doesn't make someone fit. strength+flexibility+endurance­+speed+agility = fit

concentration camp prisoner with 3% bodyfat = not fit

[PowerSprinter]

very very true. for example a sprinter named Walter Dix is the second fastest man in america. he is 5"8' 190lbs. he clearly has a little bit of extra flub on him. but he is in amazing shape and actually has amazing eundurance

[harrycool69]

I agree, those prisoners were in top condition according to this James guy.

[dablacksnow]

So funny his email. He is a moron. You do a great job Eliot!

[dablacksnow]

PS: I am European.

[Mkgreat1]

And New Zealand friends...Big mac, quarter pounder n cheese burger, double lattae, scoop of chips, hot dog and spring roll, um, delux ultimate quarter pack, moer big macs.

[kasperonesg]

They Euro guy is a douche, he wants to look strong "pretty", those guys server no function. your programs can give you the "look" but more importantly the functionality that comes with the training. Me I prefer strenght I can use in everyday task's then to "look" like a greek god, bah!!

Most of us strength athletes/trainers are chubby...albeit strong...lol Anyways Elliot, I think we all should address this in a video series or something.All the trainers...albeit strong n chubby guys should make a video series about being strong and chubby...lol Im not gonna bash him, because I love to have my alfredo and kool-aid! LOL

I love guys like this man, makes being a strength athlete worthwhile! Keep up the work Elliot

Mexican food and Dark beer! Great cheat foods! I'm on bored with StrengthCamp!

[CheezMonsterCrazy]

That James guy is full of crap. I don't even mind his bashing individuals or America, its more that he's just so incredibly close minded in thinking that everyone should conform to his idea of fitness (which I assume for him is based less on building strength and muscle than it is on making muscles more defined, and there is nothing wrong with that) that its impossible to take him seriously.

Most personal trainers are shit anyways,atleast you know what your on about.

[ImGoingGreen1]

He's in fitness and shouldnt be bashing you because your ''chubby'' almost all strongmen and strength athletes are chubby. I really love tacos or bbq ribs

[gregory49]

Great video! I'm Canadian but the email was obviously from an ignorant individual whom had a holier then thou attitude. I seriously despise people like that! I'm a seasonal drinker, I diet hard in the winter and enjoy the summer weekend BBQ's. Keep up the great work.
