5000push ups and no particular chest development,5000 sit ups and no exceptional ab development. Where do the traps and arms come from if hes not training systematically with weights?
yeah i'm sure he was the only black kid in his elementary school class- IN THE SOUTH. Why do they portray him as the only black kid and everyone (aka all the bullies) as white kids? So no black kids bullied him?
It is obvious he did a large number of push-ups and sit ups. Who cares about the exact numbers or whether or not they are exaggerated, look at the results of this man.
Does anyone here not notice the huge holes the line was opening up for him? Good grief. That combination of his running and that offensive line is unbelievable.
Would help if you clowns knew how to add. Fools, 20 situps and pushups every minute would mean 1200 a hour. Herschel would do 2500 in morning and 2500 in evening. I saw him play, greatest player ever.
I've lived with a man who suffers from dissociative disorder due to childhood trauma that went undiagnosed until he hit a wall. Our lives were torn apart as a result. I understand Herschel's spouse when she speaks of the heartache and helplessness. Never knowing or understanding why they sometimes act they way they do. They are angry, unpredictable, successful, likable & at times totally disconnected to their surroundings and the pain they are causing. No one would possibly understand what its like to live with a "Herschel" and the amount of suffering on all levels until they have gone thru it. Those who judge are ignorant and uninformed. There is very little awareness of this disorder and its real. Good for Herschel for speaking out.
JaxBlade That was in Oxford Mississippi in 1981. Absolutely stunned the crowd. Then the Ole Miss student section gave him a standing ovation as he came to the sideline.
I'm not being a "Hater" by saying this or anything, but I'm sorry if you think all he did was pushups, sit ups, pull ups and sprints/running you're a moron. First off, he's genetically gifted, second off he more than likely took steroids (75% of pro athletes are on roids, it's not natural for your body to be able to take that kind of beating AND still workout and practice everyday I don't give a shit how motivated you are. And no, steroids don't make you jacked over night, they allow your body to recover crazy fast.) and third, there is no possible way you can get legs like that without using weights. (Squats, Leg press, etc.)
He did pushups, sit ups, pull ups THAT FIRST SUMMER to prepare for his first season as an athlete. His football coach took him under his wing and he started doing weight training, explosive drills, strength and conditioning and thats when he took it to the next level. Did you even watch the documentary lol you are hating hard on herschel right now!. And just cause YOU can't do something doesn't mean nobody else can... Btw dude, it doesn't matter what you think of him or if he was on roids twenty years ago or not lol cause he still got a full ride to Georgia and played football at a higher level than you or myself could ever in your wildest dreams. Quit clowning yourself and respect the dude's work ethic.
I see a lot of "Victims" on here whining about how "THEY" tear their bodies up for millions of dollars! Basically if that's your stance in life you will always be a victim so just keep quitting in life and blame everything on someone else! Herschel doesn't talk about feeling like a victim. Football is a choice so if you are not man enough to play stick to your game console! Simply put that's the problem with our society today, everybody's a victim! Just say you are a coward and you refuse to put in the work to achieve and let people like me hold onto to the reigns of your life and you will be fine! People like you who do not listen to facts and spout sound bites from PTI are idiots and sheep! So sit on your new iPhone 6 that you financed monthly, watch your TV that you pay $150 a month to watch, and let the people that walk the walk keep walking for you and just shut up!
Because it's a different generation most kids/teens don't take bullying and turn it into a positive message for themselves nowadays they either cut themselves , do self harm or commit suicide.
Herschel is the rare example of being bullied and turning it around as a positive, but it gave him serious mental scars that he has kept with him for his entire life. Shear hardwork and determination to get over his bullying, I mean seriously there are very few people with the discipline that he had as little kid.
Felt bad for him when he got 'Marino'd' in his 2nd Sugar Bowl. Overall, quite a roller coaster of a life for him, glad he's happy now, a phenomenal athlete.
The fact they run this kids into ground...his health...for nothing, is a sin. 40 touches a game as a 20 year old means he's tearing his body apart and the U of Georgia makes millions. There is a way to remunerate these guys. It's coming...mark my words.
Definitely agree on that. They fucking abused this guy. He would get the ball 90% of the time? For fucks sake that is fucked up. It's a blessing he saw it as an outlet and didn't mind, but still shit that's cold blooded.
A back in the NFL has X amount of carries before his body gives up. That "x" varies a little from man to man and also pure chance comes into play. The horrible thing is that Y must be substracted from X. Y being the carries in University. The easy way to rumunerate a player: When people buy his Jersey a portion goes into a trust for the player. Furthermore...if a player makes a division one team...upon signing he should get free tuition at that school for life. They take BS courses...we all agree on that. Well if the player gets hurt and needs an actual education...he should be allowed to get his PHD in as many feilds as he wants. IT COST THE UNIVERSITY NOTHING. Having these communities with an influx of men arriving with actual education...what a change. That's it! This is how you pay these guys. Actual education. From those who need remedial 5th grade reading...all the way to a PHD. Let's not give them cash...but an actual aducation. Even if they leave and try to make the NFL...they can return and take a real course which will provide them with real opportunity
Anyone in November 2024
Go Dawgs!!!, Hairy Dawg and Spike are The Best Mascots Ever!!!
Where does his tail get attached to?
it's not easy being the coolest mascot in the SEC!
not just the SEC but ALL OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL.....
So Sweet
🏈🔴⚪⚫🏈
The fact he left the tv on when he left GO DOGS
I have looked for this video for years
go Dawgs
Best game I've ever seen but that's a little biased
Good Boy Uga!!!!
Without a doubt the best running back to ever play college ball!
best college player ever
5000push ups and no particular chest development,5000 sit ups and no exceptional ab development. Where do the traps and arms come from if hes not training systematically with weights?
He did pull ups on trees didn't u see it in the beginning and the stuff he did with that coach
yeah i'm sure he was the only black kid in his elementary school class- IN THE SOUTH. Why do they portray him as the only black kid and everyone (aka all the bullies) as white kids? So no black kids bullied him?
This man still has the secret to the Fountain of Youth. He doesn't look a day past 30. But I had no idea that he was a whack-job.
Sitizen Kane Fuuuuck up.
Beautiful story. True inspiration.
What a great man, very inspirational!
It is obvious he did a large number of push-ups and sit ups. Who cares about the exact numbers or whether or not they are exaggerated, look at the results of this man.
Great video! Never knew about his background. Watched the whole thing from front to back and couldn't keep my eyes off of the screen!
The absolute best RB in college football ever in history and he will not lose that title. I'm not a Georgia fan either.
the beginning sounds like bo Jackson's life
Was thinking that too.
Does anyone here not notice the huge holes the line was opening up for him? Good grief. That combination of his running and that offensive line is unbelievable.
Would help if you clowns knew how to add. Fools, 20 situps and pushups every minute would mean 1200 a hour. Herschel would do 2500 in morning and 2500 in evening. I saw him play, greatest player ever.
Hershell Skywalker
The funny thing is there's a better 34 in the sec his name bo Jackson
Wow, truly inspirational. Amazing human being!
Bo Jackson > Herschel Walker
The original beast - mode.
He would of been exactly what the Marines look for... good thing he didn't join... he probably would of died in some pointless war
Blaa

When Bo Jackson grew up, he wanted to be Herschel Walker

I'm pretty sure if you did 5000 of anything, you would be jacked
Austin Warren You really believe he did 5000 push ups a day? Really? LOL
Person Dude k
He did pushups, sit ups, pull ups THAT FIRST SUMMER to prepare for his first season as an athlete. His football coach took him under his wing and he started doing weight training, explosive drills, strength and conditioning and thats when he took it to the next level. Did you even watch the documentary lol you are hating hard on herschel right now!. And just cause YOU can't do something doesn't mean nobody else can...

Person Dude 5000 pushups a day is very possible soooo yes
bitch just fed off his fame. women
Go dawgs!!!

he has awesome genetics
So Hershel walker was defined by being bullied. Why are we trying to remove it from schools again? lol.
Because it's a different generation most kids/teens don't take bullying and turn it into a positive message for themselves nowadays they either cut themselves , do self harm or commit suicide.
Agreed. also it is a different mindset towards bullying. I cannot say its for the better either.
Herschel is the rare example of being bullied and turning it around as a positive, but it gave him serious mental scars that he has kept with him for his entire life. Shear hardwork and determination to get over his bullying, I mean seriously there are very few people with the discipline that he had as little kid.

Wise words Clarence.
Definitely agree on that. They fucking abused this guy. He would get the ball 90% of the time? For fucks sake that is fucked up. It's a blessing he saw it as an outlet and didn't mind, but still shit that's cold blooded.

Clarence LeBlanc One of the first times I've actually seen a smart comment on youtube :P If only these greedy bastards didn't have so much power...
I love you man.
A Great Running Back--Add his Professional Numbers Up and he should be in the HOF. I had the same RB coach he had in HS. I was not in his class.
Barry sanders is still better
