The greatest thing is, in the scheme of things, Arnie didnt have to do that. But on the other hand, it took only a few seconds out of his time. I can imagine that this was the greatest feeling the guy felt though. Arnie made him a star. Probably his idol, made him feel like he was great, when all day, everyday, people just give him weird stares.

As hard as it may to believe because so many people do not like him, HUGE props to LUNATIC for making this happen and getting this thread re-stickied. Not sure which MOD made it happen. Hope he speaks up though. I told you brahs I would get it done and with the help of some freinds, **** gets done.
I would like EVERYONE to say THANK YOU to LUNATIC for getting it done.
You're the man, Derek.

Hey brahs im planning on making a motivational/inspiring video to encourage non-lifters and people in poor health to get out and start living a better life with the main point being "healthier is happier"
im trying to get some "testimonials" to put in it so if anyone is willing to send me a video of your self with anything motivational, some advice, a quote, a story, what pushes/ motivates you, why you started, how you feel, or even just saying "hi my name is __ and healthier is happier or and i work out because.."
It can be as long as you want or as short as you want and i realize some people hate being on camera so even a voice recording would be cool.
I know a lot of people come here to get motivated and a lot of you have made great progress and might not think you would be motivational but trust me you are.
Im working on getting some footage from some bodybuilding "celebs" that is more intimate and personal but we will see how that goes.
Anyways pm me if you are willing and ill give you an email to send anything to. Thanks!Will rep measly reps back.

This thread has helped me a lot. Brought me up when I was down and really gave me a vision, or rather showed me how to find my vision. As Arnold says, "Rule Number 6, you gotta give back", so I'll dump some quotes I've accumulated over the years. Bound to be some reposts but w/e.
"Aim to master the particular movement,
whatever it may be, by refining and refining until no one but yourself can tell the difference
between a movement you are satisfied with and one you know to be imperfect."
"What matters is to turn one's predicament into a human achievement."
Play with your head and your heart and you cant go wrong
Discipline is remembering what you want.
"Ability is what youre capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it"
"People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do"
"You were not born a winner, and you were not born a loser. You are what you make yourself"
"Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough"
"If you dont go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you dont ask, the answer is always no. If you dont step forward, you?re always in the same place."
"The best way to predict your future is to create it."
"Go the extra mile. It's never crowded."
" There is no losing, only delayed victory. "
"Take what is useful, discard what is useless and add what is essentially your own."
~ Bruce Lee
I replaced the light bulb at the field, so, future's bright
Set your standards for greatness and make greatness standard
Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.
- Albert Einstein
"May I be forever grateful that at times, I did not receive that which I truly deserved."
"While most are dreaming of success, winners wake up and work hard to achieve it"
"You are the architect of your own destiny."
"Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you."
"Go until you are actually in fear of your life and then go further." - Mark Twight
Beauty gets attention, personality captures hearts
Throughout my lifetime, I've left pieces of my heart here and there. And now, there's almost not enough to stay alive. But I force a smile, knowing that my ambition far exceeded my talent
"Rarely will anybody but yourself appreciate the monotonous work it takes to get what you want."
Cherish each hour of this day for it can never return.
Og Mandino
"You can spend your entire life focusing on your scars, or proudly carry them with you as you reach for the stars."
Forget no friend. Fear no foe.
"You cannot dream yourself into a character: you must hammer and forge yourself into one." - Thoreau
Let others make noise; we can learn to make silence.
by D. Edwardes
“Absorb what is useful, reject what is not” - bruce lee
"We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win,"
'You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage pleasantly, smilingly, nonapologetically, to say 'no' to other things. And the way you do that is by having a bigger 'yes' burning inside. Never lose your vision. Never lose your hunger. The enemy of the 'best' is often the 'good.'
'Goliath was the best thing that ever happened to David. Just as your biggest obstacles are the best thing to happen to you'
"If you compare yourself to regular people you are comparing yourself to mediocrity and failure for starters, so don't"
"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place."
"So often in time it happens, we all live our life in chains and we never even know we had the key the whole time"
"In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins- not through strength but by perseverance." H. Jackson Brown
"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person's determination."
Tommy Lasorda
"The limit exists to be exceeded."
"Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so." Charles De Gaulle
If you aim to be good, you'll be average
If you aim to be great, you'll be good
If you aim to be excellent, you'll be great
If you aim to be perfect, you'll be excellent
"The truly great are humble in spirit. Not because of some sense of social expectation, but because their inner self, their true spirit knows that as good as they were, they were never as good as they wanted to be. A great as they are, they are not as great as they want to be. That spirit craves greatness, aches for excellence, demands perfection while desperately urging them toward their destiny. THIS is what drives them to seemingly unimaginable heights. Yet they are humbled, because the heights their inner spirit envisioned were so much greater."
A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.
“I can’t do it” never yet accomplished anything; ‘I will try’ has performed wonders.
An ounce of action is better than a ton of words.
The best inspiration is not to outdo others, but to outdo ourselves.
Be Charitable... Work harder for those who can't.
Whether you say you can or you cant, you are probably right.
The closer you are to failure, the closer you are to victory.
The worst thing you can be is average.
Be great or be nothing.
The toughest part of getting to the top of the ladder, is getting through the crowd at the bottom.
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." Edison
"The worst times build the best character"-unknown
"A good plan executed today is better than a perfect plan executed at some indefinite point in the future."
- General George Patton Jr
Pressure makes diamonds.
- General George Patton Jr
"If something is important to you, you'll find a way. If not, you'll find an excuse."
If you are ever distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.
- Marcus Aurelius
None of us will accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone
Man who says it cant be done, should not interrupt man doing it - Chinese Proverbs
The easiest person to fool in the world is yourself -
"Undoubtedly, we become what we envisage."
-Claude Bristol
If a man can bridge the gap between life and death, if he can live on after he's dead, then maybe he was a great man. " James Dean
"Don't think you can, know you can" - Morpheus
The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night. - Longfellow
"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."
"Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools."
All problems become smaller if you don’t dodge them, but confront them. Touch a thistle timidly, and it pricks you; grasp it boldly, and its spines crumble. - William S. Halsey
Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the men of old; seek what they sought.
"Everybody pities the weak; jealousy you have to earn." - Arnold Schwarzenegger
"The cowards never started and the weak died along the way"
"Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens."
-- J. R. R. Tolkien
"Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something."
--Thomas Edison
"Ships in harbour are safe, but that's not what ships are for"
A man that does not fall, does not stand up - Fedor Emelianenko
Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible
Don't get discouraged; it's usually the last key in the bunch that opens the lock.
Strength, is nothing more than how well you hide the pain.
Anyone can give up; it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.
Life is like a piano. What you get out of it depends on how you play it.
"Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the men of old; seek what they sought." Matsuo Basho
The bolded ones are personal favorites that I keep on my phone to read when I'm feeling ****ty. The bolded and italicized one by Bristol is one I'll carry around with me forever.

two quotes for the lulz that still might get you going on a slow day.
"Children trust me. I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I know the exact location of every food item in the supermarket. I have performed several covert operations with the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery.
The laws of physics do not apply to me. I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills are all paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down."

"A centipede was about to consume a spider when the spider asked for a final question.
The centipede said, "Sure, but then I will eat you."
"How do you keep all those legs coordinated?" the spider asked.
The centipede replied, "I don't know. I'd never thought about it before."
At this point, the spider ran off, and the centipede tried to give chase, but was unable to because he couldn't make his legs walk properly, and he could never move again."
