>It's harder to achieve a bulked up state anyways
for normal people it is. but people with inactive halfwit tier brains (brain needs the most calories, if you dont think it doesnt need energy) with shitty eating habits, aka eating like pigs being chubby is no feat.
for me gaining weigth is hard and problematic. staying lean and slim is no problem. quality women prefer this bodytype so I have no problem with it.
>I don't think he actually saw any real combat first hand
he didn't, he legit spent 20 years in the military doing nothing but working out and finding excuses not to deploy. much like he uses running to cope with his mental illness about being weak, he uses it to cope with being a pussy as well, and would frequently train himself too hard and get put in the hospital, fricking over his entire platoon by not deploying
lol he didn’t want to get shot and killed? What a fricking pussy. Hope he gets ass cancer from being afraid of getting shot lmao.
Seriously hope you goys don’t do this
>lol he didn’t want to get shot and killed? What a fricking pussy
I mean if you join up to a job to get shot and killed but then after you get your cool-guy status from running fast quit on the job where people are relying on you then yeah man you're a pussy simple facts nobody put a gun to his head and said hey join the navy seals
David Goggins served as a Navy SEAL, but he did not directly experience combat during his time in the military. Goggins underwent SEAL training (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL or BUD/S) and successfully completed it, earning the designation of a Navy SEAL.

i thought he said he was in iraq, doesnt he have some service medals?

>doesnt he have some service medals
according to his wiki he's got a combat action ribbon and did deploy to iraq once. now whether or not he was out there kicking ass is hard to tell, but the fact that in a 20 year career he only deployed twice is usually telling about someones career, especially a SEAL who don't deploy for very long anyways
He also lied about running 100 miles in one day, to qualify for his ultra marathon, several people testified that in the badlands 100 they gapped him hard but he somehow finished hours before them, he lied about deploying (WHO GONNA CARRY THR BOATD I WONT DEPLOY WITH) he lied about being 300 lbs to not deploy, he lied about completing hell week over and over from being a badass (was really because he kept timing out of training)
This guy is nothing but black Andrew Tate and you fell for it. Oh and after #BLM when he said he had to run 20 miles a day as a kid to prevent the KKK from killing him
>After completing BUD/S, he faced some physical challenges and injuries that prevented him from being deployed to a combat zone
lol. I was ordered to join an assault team while having a fractured shin bone, and my commander knew very well about it.
Just chug some painkillers and do your job, Black person.
goggins says that he had some heart condition, that his command didn't know about somehow, but that he still somehow got a light duty chit, but also somehow was running ultramarathons, all at the same time. it doesn't make any fricking sense at all
He was virally marketed by the US armed forces and is 100% propaganda. These figures start off in the male improvement space and people get sucked in before the evidence comes out that it's all a israeli trick. Same as Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate.

well, i mean it's not the most efficient training plan for an athlete to achieve world champion results, but then which part of military bootcamp is so scientific, the whole military approach to training is basically to break you down, I assume they train war fighters sharp reliable under pressure and resilient to survive in hell, not necessary perfectly balanced super athlete on the path for optimal growth and performance midigating injuries or damages to have a good career.

this is true once you're actually in a SOF unit, you would not BELIEVE the kinds of resources these dudes have. In iraq the SEALs were working out in their own private boarded up section of the base gym with BRAND NEW Rogue equipment and I mean everything you can think of, brand new, shipped over to them, and shared with nobody else. We made squat racks out of wood. These commands have nutrionists, physical therapists etc all at their finger tips, their budgets are INSANE.

Oh well, he's still talked about and admired by many. Not the worst role model for people who need someone's help to get their shit together.
Bro can you tell me about that? That sounds cool af going pew pew with the boys
So I went to Ukraine last year and got a fracture in my shin bone due to very rigorous physical training at the local bootcamp. I had two options at that point - stay in Kyiv as a training platoon commander (with the hope that the bone will kind of fix itself due to lack of stress), or suck it up and go to the frontlines.
Of course, I chose the second option and went to Mykolaiv-Kherson sector to be a drone operator. Got quickly promoted to the UAV detachment lead, which gave me some flexibility on when to send my bois to the missions and when to go myself. I was limping for the whole time there and it still hurts a lot, but I had it bandaged tightly and took 2-3 types of painkillers before going on the missions and it was tolerable.
As for that particular assault, our commander decided to get everyone from the company and all the equipment except mortars to be involved. Only our cook and a couple of other guys stayed at the base. I was trying to tell the commanders that all drone operators should stay a little bit behind the main force to allow for a higher quality of work, but they decided to add more barrels to the spearhead. It totally fricked with our ability to use drones at all, so my bois and I ended up pretty much being grunts carrying a lot of shit during that mission.
See picrelated with me driving the truck loaded with AT rockets for that assault. That's not including countless of AT4, Matadors, and other rocket and grenade launchers.
The preparation for the assault and how it went is a separate story, but briefly, it was a shitshow and all of us got out alive mostly by luck.
Holy shit dude I'd love to hear that story. Just from the videos alone I've seen of assaults that shit looks absolutely insane and I can't imagine the balls you have to have in order to carry out one.
You've got my respect man, anyone that went over there to volunteer over there is a hero in my eyes. Did you know there's people who seriously say the whole thing is staged and that the footage is coming from "studios"? Lmao.
Thanks, my dude. The real heroes are still there. Either in the ground or fighting for it.
As for the story, I'm thinking about writing down everything I still remember and can recollect from photos/screenshots/conversations just before I start to forget all the details and fill the gaps with so-called fake memories.
It's midnight where I'm currently at, and I don't really have much time to describe the 3-day operation in an engaging way. Maybe I'll post it tomorrow if the thread is still alive or somewhere on /k/ when it feels appropriate.

Idk why they hid her profile, redditoids basically doxxed goggins and messaged her directly and she confirmed it all
He permamently fricked up his leg for like 30,000 a year. War is not going pew pew with the bois. War is sitting in a hole in the ground with a gun waiting for people to come shoot you and waiting for a silent drone 200m above you to drop a bomb and blow you up. It’s boring until it’s not and you wish it was back to being boring instead of knowing a stray bullet can catch you in the eye and you’ll never be normal again.
No one actually wants to hear “thank you for your service”, anon.
>He permamently fricked up his leg for like 30,000 a year
lolno he did it for free as a volunteer it sounds like
also >permanently fricked up
bro stress fractures are not a permanent frick up lmao why do fricking moronS think people who say they had stress fractures were literally walking around on a snapped tib/fib lmao
That's why I didn't say thank you for your service . I said if you went over there to help another country and their people your a damn hero. Please don't be mean anon 🙁
>fighting for israelitekraine
nothing he did was heroic. he's quite literally a braindead good goy. nothing he did even mattered, since that war is slowly fizzling out.

My only issue with Goggins explanation about his career is that none of it adds up or makes sense to me. I say that because I was in the navy for 4 years so I understand how the Navy works from first hand experience. First red flag was when Goggin's Platoon claimed that they weren't aware of Goggins light duty special requests chit because of his heart condition. When you file a special requests or any chit for that matter it has to get signed through the chain of command from the LPO all the way up to the CO of your department or even the command. If Goggin's had a light duty chit his platoon and command would have definitely known about it but apparently they didn't and Goggin's was being secretive about it. Second red flag is that the navy allowed him to serve a full 20 years as a "high risk liability" knowing his medical condition with his heart. I've seen people get medically discharged for way less compared to goggins condition. So it's very strange the Navy didn't medically discharge him as a high risk medical liability and also a possible payout for the VA after service. This was a huge red flag to me because the military is pretty dam stingy with money and never want to be liable for enlisted people's health. Yet he finished 20 years as an unusable asset especially as a NSW operator doing shore duty and recruiting seems very unlikely for the Navy to do that. That's just my whole take from my own experience and comparing it to his story. I want to like Goggin's but then I also don't because I can't tell if he was lying about his service and a shitbag who wanted glory of a seal but didn't want to actually do the job.
Was he famous before leaving the military?
I think a lot of those "military" fitness people are being semi funded by the government to increase recruitment
>Was he famous before leaving the military?
nope. and sometimes I buy into that idea too with all these SEAL guys that get out and push the seal brand, but honestly most of the time asides from carefully curated propaganda pieces like lone survivor or american sniper they end up just making the SEALs look like shit so idk I think if they were recruiting tools they would behave better.
>I think if they were recruiting tools they would behave better
there's 100% a full team of navy intellegence behind goggins to push the agenda of navy cool, empower persons, so it reaches pentagon for budget and political reasons, since we talking about strategy?
that aside, he is still a very respectable man, and i think his message will touch millions of young man who look up to the NAVY, train hard and be good.
goggins says that he had some heart condition, that his command didn't know about somehow, but that he still somehow got a light duty chit, but also somehow was running ultramarathons, all at the same time. it doesn't make any fricking sense at all
>goggins says that he had some heart condition, that his command didn't know about somehow, but that he still somehow got a light duty chit, but also somehow was running ultramarathons, all at the same time. it doesn't make any fricking sense at all
well maybe he is doing some secret stuff and he could only disclose it this way, or that inspite of his disability he is willing to push hard and get it done further shows his will power
>well maybe he is doing some secret stuff and he could only disclose it this way,
see
>he prob is doing something he couldn't straight up tell you too much about
nah he's pretty open about the fact that they essentially kicked him out of the seal teams to go do recruiting, instead of deploying they sent him to do recruiting tours particularly in black schools since there aren't a lot of black seals. his story for it in the book is his heart defect, but that was according to him fixed in 2009 when they discovered it, he had already deployed once in I believe 2005 so that's a four year stretch of not deploying which is pretty unordinary.
I mean the dude himself admits nobody liked him in the seal teams because he's not a good team player he talks about that pretty freely, I think he just doesn't like full on saying >hey they kicked me out to go recruit and frick off because I didn't actually want to work in a team and fight I just kind of joined for the challenge and to workout
>Navy didn't medically discharge him as a high risk medical liability and also a possible payout for the VA after service.

dudes NAVY SEAL and seemed to be widely regonized by the community so he prob is doing something he couldn't straight up tell you too much about i think thatd make sense.
>he prob is doing something he couldn't straight up tell you too much about

i understand, i mean if someone is competitive that'd be a trait people might find it hard to work with, being a great recruiter does help the military too maybe just as much as fighting war itself.
>recruiting tours particularly in black schools since there aren't a lot of black seals
really? he does tours? make sense that he would be in my city OC costa mesa, wow thats so cool, let me show you an image of him in our local gym.
I was a giant fan, when i saw that pic i had the worse cry ever.
will there be an asian NAVY SEAL doing what he do sometimes in the future?
>really? he does tours?
I mean he goes all over the place now that he's a celebrity but yeah they would trot him and marcus luttrell out to high schoolers to convince them to go die for israel or whatever, think they called it a patriot tour or something stupid like that
I knew a guy who was in the Navy for 10 years and was never put on a ship because he had the worst personality.
At one point he thought he was really funny and clever because he blocked Fox News on every TV in the base and when he was caught people were so sick of his b******* they moved him to the other side of the country.
He would constantly start fights and insult people and then record their reactions secretly to blackmail them.
In 10 years he spent nine of them absolutely alone in a supply room. The few people that would make the mistake of going in there would all say that he was a huge a****** who just started insulting them out of nowhere.
Now he claims he quit the Navy because people were too intimidated by his intelligence but the fact of the matter is he was kicked out after something he did regarding Trump winning the 2016 election. Now I don't know exactly what he did or said but he was considered a security risk and was escorted off the base.

Eh, not much to tell. I went through in ‘08-‘09 so the navy was a little less homosexual then from what I understand, or at least specwar still was. 99 people in my class, one mullato, otherwise everyone was white, Asian, or Hispanic. A lot more slurs and language and probably more physical violence then there is now but I dunno. Was a cool time but in retrospect I should have joined the army or marines, as more opportunity for combat role if you don’t make it through specops training, and the training is less designed to break you. Problem with seal training is the emphasize the “ringing out” to pump you up, but for everyone that quits there’s someone else that gets unnecessarily hurt from some of the silly hazing shit they have you do (mask appreciate=waterboarding, ending up with pneumonia; someone died in buds from it last year I think). Lucky for me I was separated completely and didn’t end up in the big navy.

>Lucky for me I was separated completely
damn I'm guessing you got fricked up pretty bad then. personally I went marine grunts and I was happy I did for the exact reason you said. I find that to be a problem with BUD/S in general, it's a selection course where it seems like the course selects people, not the instructors selecting people, if that makes sense. Other pipelines like MARSOC or SF A/S are designed to be completed, and then you're evaluated and chosen if you're a performer, BUD/S it's like alright these are the guys that survived, hope they're not buttholes lmao. Then again I'm talking out of my ass my command fricked me raw on my MARSOC package so I got out after 4.
Cutting so much weight in 2 months is crazy but I can't stand people that think he just suddenly gained all that muscle.
The dude was benching 315+ for reps then decided to do a megacut.
>dood just abandon your family and roooooooooooooooooooooon!!!!!
Reminder that he was a badge collector in the military who almost killed his team in training because he's literally a fricking moron. His dad was a better human being than he is.

He left his wife and children, he never got over being bullied in school. He will forever be a victim, it's his mind. Fricking weak Black person.

You've got my respect man, anyone that went over there to volunteer over there is a hero in my eyes. Did you know there's people who seriously say the whole thing is staged and that the footage is coming from "studios"? Lmao.
Thanks, my dude. The real heroes are still there. Either in the ground or fighting for it.
As for the story, I'm thinking about writing down everything I still remember and can recollect from photos/screenshots/conversations just before I start to forget all the details and fill the gaps with so-called fake memories.
It's midnight where I'm currently at, and I don't really have much time to describe the 3-day operation in an engaging way. Maybe I'll post it tomorrow if the thread is still alive or somewhere on /k/ when it feels appropriate.
Please write it all down. I think us civilians are so out of touch with how f-ed up war can be and the details and context of your experience can be a real eye opener for people.
Quit lying, we all know the Ukraine conflict is just AI generated imagery
Typical bullshit after a war, all morons that went to the front think of writing a book and then there are too much of them so nobody makes a pennie. But with the Ukranian loses maybe homosexuals like you do actually have an opportunity so go ahead and write how you fought for gay rights
>I was ordered to join an assault team while having a fractured shin bone
> I chose the second option and went to Mykolaiv-Kherson sector to be a drone operator. Got quickly promoted to the UAV detachment lead
KEK, Black person played video games while other dudes actually did shit. No wonder they made you work with your broken foot. You didnt even have to move.
a grifter is also a bullshitter? i am so surprised
She is lying, I am Goggins' son and he is a very good father.
Proof? You don't need that, just trust my IG post
>You don't need that, just trust my IG post
Idk why they hid her profile, redditoids basically doxxed goggins and messaged her directly and she confirmed it all
he admitted it himself in an interview
Goggins doesn't exactly hide in the book that he had a kid that he abandoned.
Bro can you tell me about that? That sounds cool af going pew pew with the boys
He permamently fricked up his leg for like 30,000 a year. War is not going pew pew with the bois. War is sitting in a hole in the ground with a gun waiting for people to come shoot you and waiting for a silent drone 200m above you to drop a bomb and blow you up. It’s boring until it’s not and you wish it was back to being boring instead of knowing a stray bullet can catch you in the eye and you’ll never be normal again.
No one actually wants to hear “thank you for your service”, anon.
>He permamently fricked up his leg for like 30,000 a year
lolno he did it for free as a volunteer it sounds like
also
>permanently fricked up
bro stress fractures are not a permanent frick up lmao why do fricking moronS think people who say they had stress fractures were literally walking around on a snapped tib/fib lmao
That's why I didn't say thank you for your service . I said if you went over there to help another country and their people your a damn hero. Please don't be mean anon 🙁
>fighting for israelitekraine
nothing he did was heroic. he's quite literally a braindead good goy. nothing he did even mattered, since that war is slowly fizzling out.
calling in airstrikes is not combat, ZOGhogs
Running can be pretty addictive. Never got a high from lifting.
stress hormones, wow gj killing urself lol
keep it up
Thanks to Goggins, I fractured the metatarsus from both of my feet! Thanks, senpai!
(It's true btw)
My only issue with Goggins explanation about his career is that none of it adds up or makes sense to me. I say that because I was in the navy for 4 years so I understand how the Navy works from first hand experience. First red flag was when Goggin's Platoon claimed that they weren't aware of Goggins light duty special requests chit because of his heart condition. When you file a special requests or any chit for that matter it has to get signed through the chain of command from the LPO all the way up to the CO of your department or even the command. If Goggin's had a light duty chit his platoon and command would have definitely known about it but apparently they didn't and Goggin's was being secretive about it. Second red flag is that the navy allowed him to serve a full 20 years as a "high risk liability" knowing his medical condition with his heart. I've seen people get medically discharged for way less compared to goggins condition. So it's very strange the Navy didn't medically discharge him as a high risk medical liability and also a possible payout for the VA after service. This was a huge red flag to me because the military is pretty dam stingy with money and never want to be liable for enlisted people's health. Yet he finished 20 years as an unusable asset especially as a NSW operator doing shore duty and recruiting seems very unlikely for the Navy to do that. That's just my whole take from my own experience and comparing it to his story. I want to like Goggin's but then I also don't because I can't tell if he was lying about his service and a shitbag who wanted glory of a seal but didn't want to actually do the job.
Was he famous before leaving the military?
I think a lot of those "military" fitness people are being semi funded by the government to increase recruitment
>Was he famous before leaving the military?
nope. and sometimes I buy into that idea too with all these SEAL guys that get out and push the seal brand, but honestly most of the time asides from carefully curated propaganda pieces like lone survivor or american sniper they end up just making the SEALs look like shit so idk I think if they were recruiting tools they would behave better.
>I think if they were recruiting tools they would behave better
there's 100% a full team of navy intellegence behind goggins to push the agenda of navy cool, empower persons, so it reaches pentagon for budget and political reasons, since we talking about strategy?
that aside, he is still a very respectable man, and i think his message will touch millions of young man who look up to the NAVY, train hard and be good.
>goggins says that he had some heart condition, that his command didn't know about somehow, but that he still somehow got a light duty chit, but also somehow was running ultramarathons, all at the same time. it doesn't make any fricking sense at all
well maybe he is doing some secret stuff and he could only disclose it this way, or that inspite of his disability he is willing to push hard and get it done further shows his will power
>well maybe he is doing some secret stuff and he could only disclose it this way,
see
im with you, the story never made sense
>Navy didn't medically discharge him as a high risk medical liability and also a possible payout for the VA after service. This was a huge red flag to me because the military is pretty dam stingy with money and never want to be liable for enlisted people's health.

dudes NAVY SEAL and seemed to be widely regonized by the community so he prob is doing something he couldn't straight up tell you too much about i think thatd make sense.
>he prob is doing something he couldn't straight up tell you too much about
nah he's pretty open about the fact that they essentially kicked him out of the seal teams to go do recruiting, instead of deploying they sent him to do recruiting tours particularly in black schools since there aren't a lot of black seals. his story for it in the book is his heart defect, but that was according to him fixed in 2009 when they discovered it, he had already deployed once in I believe 2005 so that's a four year stretch of not deploying which is pretty unordinary.
I mean the dude himself admits nobody liked him in the seal teams because he's not a good team player he talks about that pretty freely, I think he just doesn't like full on saying
>hey they kicked me out to go recruit and frick off because I didn't actually want to work in a team and fight I just kind of joined for the challenge and to workout
>the dude himself admits nobody liked him in the seal teams because he's not a good team player
i understand, i mean if someone is competitive that'd be a trait people might find it hard to work with, being a great recruiter does help the military too maybe just as much as fighting war itself.
>recruiting tours particularly in black schools since there aren't a lot of black seals
really? he does tours? make sense that he would be in my city OC costa mesa, wow thats so cool, let me show you an image of him in our local gym.
I was a giant fan, when i saw that pic i had the worse cry ever.
will there be an asian NAVY SEAL doing what he do sometimes in the future?
>really? he does tours?
I mean he goes all over the place now that he's a celebrity but yeah they would trot him and marcus luttrell out to high schoolers to convince them to go die for israel or whatever, think they called it a patriot tour or something stupid like that
I knew a guy who was in the Navy for 10 years and was never put on a ship because he had the worst personality.
At one point he thought he was really funny and clever because he blocked Fox News on every TV in the base and when he was caught people were so sick of his b******* they moved him to the other side of the country.
He would constantly start fights and insult people and then record their reactions secretly to blackmail them.
In 10 years he spent nine of them absolutely alone in a supply room. The few people that would make the mistake of going in there would all say that he was a huge a****** who just started insulting them out of nowhere.
Now he claims he quit the Navy because people were too intimidated by his intelligence but the fact of the matter is he was kicked out after something he did regarding Trump winning the 2016 election. Now I don't know exactly what he did or said but he was considered a security risk and was escorted off the base.
you know you don't have to censor bad words here right Black person
There’s plenty of Asian navy seals, Asians have a strong swimming culture u like blacks.
t. gay who washed out of BUD/S for an injury
>t. gay who washed out of BUD/S for an injury
care to share some stories?
Eh, not much to tell. I went through in ‘08-‘09 so the navy was a little less homosexual then from what I understand, or at least specwar still was. 99 people in my class, one mullato, otherwise everyone was white, Asian, or Hispanic. A lot more slurs and language and probably more physical violence then there is now but I dunno. Was a cool time but in retrospect I should have joined the army or marines, as more opportunity for combat role if you don’t make it through specops training, and the training is less designed to break you. Problem with seal training is the emphasize the “ringing out” to pump you up, but for everyone that quits there’s someone else that gets unnecessarily hurt from some of the silly hazing shit they have you do (mask appreciate=waterboarding, ending up with pneumonia; someone died in buds from it last year I think). Lucky for me I was separated completely and didn’t end up in the big navy.
>Lucky for me I was separated completely
damn I'm guessing you got fricked up pretty bad then. personally I went marine grunts and I was happy I did for the exact reason you said. I find that to be a problem with BUD/S in general, it's a selection course where it seems like the course selects people, not the instructors selecting people, if that makes sense. Other pipelines like MARSOC or SF A/S are designed to be completed, and then you're evaluated and chosen if you're a performer, BUD/S it's like alright these are the guys that survived, hope they're not buttholes lmao. Then again I'm talking out of my ass my command fricked me raw on my MARSOC package so I got out after 4.
are you allowed to forgpost in the navy?
frogposting was probably 80% of what I did in the navy
Cutting so much weight in 2 months is crazy but I can't stand people that think he just suddenly gained all that muscle.
The dude was benching 315+ for reps then decided to do a megacut.
funny cause right is more likely to have a heart attack lmfao
homie looks like he got the vampire curse in oblivion
>dood just abandon your family and roooooooooooooooooooooon!!!!!
Reminder that he was a badge collector in the military who almost killed his team in training because he's literally a fricking moron. His dad was a better human being than he is.
>almost killed his team in training
QRD?
Abandoned wife and child to professionally roleplay as a tough guy. Typical Black person.
