This video has helped me beat alcoholism and addiction. I watch it everyday before the gym for this very motivation. This video has honestly saved my life many times ! All 3 parts! I hope everyone watching remains disciplined and I hope you never leave your love for the gym !
That makes me so happy to hear. I have gotten many messages like this over the years and it makes all the work that went into the making of this series all worthwhile.
That’s awesome man! This resonates with myself, as it’s sometimes the everyday person in the UA-cam comments that can have a positive effect on one person. Keep up the great work man!
This guy is so humble, he's telling you the real path to success, not this insta bshit that the kids see these days. Listen up young ones this is the path to success in whatever discipline you apply it too.
Not interested in bodybuilding but I admire his honesty and willingness to give advice that can be applied universally. A dying breed. Beautiful human being.
@Danilo Blandon its not possible to get that big without some help like HGH, maybe dbol etc., the human body has its limits you know. Allmost all the famous bodybuilders you know have take either steriods or hgh or something else. Even Arnold admitting using hgh I believe it was. And there is nothing wrong with it (beside obvious health problems down the road), he is still dedicated to his craft and working out is his life. Its only a problem when people say they are a natty when they are not.
He is like a Shaolin Monk. I swear to god he could run his own monastry in the mountains. Kai Greene is like an anime character. Unreal dude and discipline.
time and time again i come back to this documentary. I feel like its one of the last vids before the social media ruined the everything and poisoned our perception of the world.
That's very interesting that you feel that way. I do too. I was given free reign to produce the documentary I wanted to produce. I think that now with heightened awareness of a proper social media presence I would have been controlled more.
@@MikePulcinellaVideo thank you for producing this documentary. I am a Kai Greene fan and I apply his methodology to my life as a tradesman and soldier. I am a former national bodybuilder from over 20years ago. I plan to re-enter the sports once I am reunited with my children. In the trenches builds character, and again; I thank you!
I want to cry...this video speaks to the muscle cells of my bodybuilding soul! Whenever I feel like slacking I watch it again and again...Anyone here 2020 :)
GuitarLucius I thought the same thing I learned not to judge anyone. until I know the person. He is a decent person I wish him the best in his quest. Why was he banned in 2015?
Imala aKebab Especially for an athlete, he is articulate, and take a look at all of his artwork. He is a fairly smart fellow. At the same time, I am a theoretical physicist with a Ph.D. from UC currently doing post-doctoral research in loop quantum cosmology. Don't believe me? Look me up, my username is my real name. I am almost certainly smarter than you and your entire family tree combine. So if I am not intelligent...then what does that make you? Well it pretty much makes you someone who has sprouted and extra chromosome.
he is the opposite of clear.He is philosophing 3 hours about how to shit and in what mental state you have to be to get the best results.He should go see a doctor for his head
He is clear about how to do things? He says a bunch of nonsense about mind muscle connections and reps and nothing about the large (insanely large) amounts of drugs he is on, which makes him into the person he is (body wise). Nothing to do with his "wise words" and everything to do with the drugs. He is the opposite of clear. He is completely conning thousands, if not hundreds of thousands into believing that he has the secret answer to working out, even though all he does is takes a shit load of drugs. That being said he is a nice fucking guy. So props to his attitude lol!
This Guy He probably doesn't take as many drugs as people think, his genetics and his response to drugs is key. Supplements are bullshit, but he is right about the food part. Without food he wouldn't have any muscle mass! Steroids wouldn't do shit.
This is why I love and respect this man, because I can relate to him, he shows you the way to success through the harsh reality that we all live in, and proves you that it is possible to achieve it, if you willing to put the work, this is the kind of person who will never be influenced by money, it will change his lifestyle, but never his character and charisma, he will always be Kai that we all know. I pray to God that you reach your dream, whatever may be. Proud of you brother.
Since the first time I started training and going to the gym, has passed 7 years , it’s my 43 time watching my first motivation video, and the man ho made me start, not quit and continue my journey 🙏🏼
Kai Greene is a role model, an inspiration. What a humble guy. I have never seen a bodybuilder so methodical, humble, modest, admirable character and promoter of hard work. God bless you Kai. Really miss you on the Olympia stage. Sad that these guys didn’t value you that you deserved. God bless you idol ❤❤ 🙏🙏
I've watched this so many times - it has a nice honest flow to it. Kai is so down to earth and dishes out some great not just bodybuilding but insightful life advice. The filmmakers narration is great too.
Kai is an amazing role model. You can tell he has no adverse effects of pride or ego. He has risen above material desires and lives his daily routine by his rules. Such an intelligent mind with an outstanding body and warrior spirit. I wish you further success and wisdom in your journey throughout your life.
n galvan well I wouldn't doubt it his past isnt exactly without color lol!(his stripped days and the grapefruit scandal) but im sure he is secure with who he is!
I'm watching this again to get some motivation & Hope. This was only 9 years ago. Look at him now - Dec. 2021!! He's come a long way. There is hope for a better future for everybody ❤
I just want to say thank you, this documentary was crucial for me in my early days of recovery from alcohol, obesity and depression. I lost 55 kilos (121lbs) and I'm 8 years sober. Happy now (I'm also a PT!) I come back to this video when I feel my ego inflating or if I'm getting off track on the basics. I learned to keep it simple just from this doc. When I feel off track I get this wierd urge to go and get some cheap tuppaware!
Never wanted to be a bodybuilder...never...but always respected their discipline...Kai he for me is the pinnacle "like you really wanna do this cardio" i always come back for that line.
Very good series. I remember watching this the first time 6 years ago and Kai motivated me to start going to the gym, taking my diet seriously and pushing through various barriers in my life. Today, I am reaping many benefits of that decision I made after being inspired by this remarkable human being. I'm grateful. On another note, the obsessiveness of some people in the comments section is troubling. I have seen this on many UA-cam videos where some person will post the same negative comment over a hundred times as if his/her life's purpose is to hate. I pray that those with mental illness get help ASAP.
“If it’s more important to other people than it’s to you, than there’s a large part of your better potential that will not be tapped”. That’s the quote of my life.
Kai Greene is so philosophical in what he says it truly is amazing to hear him speak and he truly shows it too in his bodybuilding one day he will win Mr. Olympia.
I'm glad someone is still grounded and never forget where they came from and or how what it took to become great...thanks Kai! Your a Champ and always will be...
First time seeing this....I'm extremely thankful he chose to show the reality before the reward. Kai is very humble, very articulate and very intelligent. Laughed when he saw his reflection and now looks like what his mom said to avoid. Video brought back many memories, I grew up right around there. Kai is best teacher, made me think I need to "tighten up".
Humble,focused,and wise. He is an artist that sculpts his own body and leaves nothing to chance. His will power and determination are something to emulate. I hope he wins the coveted prize he is after, he certainly will have earned it!
I'm not even 5 minutes into this video and I already have alot of respect for Kai Greene. The man has never forgotten from whence he came, which were from very humble beginnings. I can understand why he chooses to live the austere lifestyle that he does, as well as continuing to live in the area where he grew up in and knows very well. The sport of BB is one where only a chosen few really enjoy the trappings of success. It costs so much to put yourself in a situation to even make a few dollars. Most labor in obscurity. Also, there is so much politics in BB at the top.
Thanks to this guy I’ve been training nonstop for the past 34 days. No days off I was fit when I was 14 Always watching his videos, always checking his Facebook page hehe training and saying I want to meet Kai some day. Now I live in USA and still trying to find a way to meet this guy. Life is not easy having a job, going to school and paying rent on time but I patiently wait for the day I meet him -My Dream
Good stuff man but make sure you take days off. Working out 7 days a week is for juiced people. Normies like you and me need to take time off during the week and also few days of off time during a training cycle. It lets you rebuild muscle more efficiently. Unless you are juicing then all the power to ya!!
This is straight determination and focus. No excuses, he truly takes ownership bc he knows nothing is handed out. He seems incredibly driven, kind and intelligent. Thank you for this video!
"Genuine & Legit" bodybuilder - Hands Down - Teaches the most significant lesson for upcoming bodybuilders "Develop the character and discipline required to follow through not just in gym but outside in real world as well" - Respect !
If I had an amazing body like that, it would be hard to resist showing it off every chance that I got. This guy was well covered when he went grocery shopping, so as to not call unnecessary attention to himself. I, truly, admire his humility. .
man the old school bodybuilding videos ( like these ) are such timeless gems, i compare it to now, modern bodybuilding, the content is just not the same, it was so much more real back in these days
you recording this changed alot of peoples lives. I was a fat guy and in grade 7 I seen this video and his other series and started working out and it changed my life.
I never expected that kind of reaction when I was making this. I was just following an interesting athlete. The fact that this has been an inspiration for people over the years has been one of the best and most satisfying surprises of my life. Proud to be a small part of your journey.
All I have to say is I'm from Brooklyn, Brownsville and MUCH LOVE TO U KAI GREEN I am going through the same thing as we speak ,not knowing u already did it especially the dollars store part, lol that definitely made me tear with more motivation to continue my dream and i definitely see it clear now brother PEACE LOVE AND HAPPINESS TO U.
I love this documentary. I come back to it for motivation regularly. The great thing is that what Kai says is applicable to any pursuit in life not just bodybuilding. My goals are different but I still consider Kai a master. And thanks to Mike for making the documentary so great. Fantastic work.
this documentary is still the gold standard. people still try to copy the magic you guys made with this. the only one I like as much as this is the one they did when kai went monk mode in the desert.
Thanks. You are so right. Even I haven't been able to top this since then. Sometimes things just come together in a magical way. The monk in the desert video is OVERKILL, which I made too. You can watch it on my channel. ua-cam.com/video/Pvy2_DPKNYk/v-deo.html
Omg, I gained even more respect for the Bodybuilding community after watching this video of the dedication and struggle these athletes put themselves through for their daily routines.
Thank you for the upload. Green is an amazing human being as well as an amazing bodybuilder. I hope that he gets what he asked for in life as he deserves it. A very humble and kind person spiritually amazing I love green very much and I love everything he represents I truly wish and hope only the best for him God bless you stay safe. Again thank you for the upload
I’ve watched this several times. But he just amazes me of his desire, wisdom, and willing to push on. It’s really something to watch. Discipline is really something.
Amazing. This stuff is really amongst the very best and I consider it already classic footage for the sport. Honestly, in the same league as Pumping Iron to a degree. I think pumping iron is the king and more broad... but this is world class documentary type stuff and Kai is so generous here with expertise and philosophy.
Being self-disciplined and very successful have always been the justified reasons to be arrogant in this world. Nothing expresses itself more vividly than the beautiful contrast of success and humility. Clearly, Kai Greene is as much of an artist and a philosopher as he is a professional bodybuilder. I would like to know more about his philosophy about "wealth and humanity".
Don't know much about bodybuilding or this guy, BUT from what I just see in the video. This guy is a very humble and down to earth guy wish there was more guys like him including myself. Respect to this man
This video has helped me beat alcoholism and addiction. I watch it everyday before the gym for this very motivation. This video has honestly saved my life many times ! All 3 parts! I hope everyone watching remains disciplined and I hope you never leave your love for the gym !

@Danilo Blandon o come on, if you think he is a natty you are delusional. Sure he puts in work, but 100% not natural.

Exactly the same for me! Love it!
This man is beyond a body builder, he is a guru. Never seen such humility in a body builder before.
I think that's a bit dramatic. 😂

He's not a meat head, he sounds intelligent and articulate.

Yea, he had a huge problem with that videos at the gay shows and with that sex with melone.
He's the best to learn from, watching other guys are so boring he's very clear on how to do things

So true bro
Anyone still come here when you start to slack? These videos helped me so much as a teenager. Gotta love Kai.
Im not even a hardcore bodybuilding fan. But this dude is awesome.
I wanna give the man a hug. The uncrowned 2014 Mr.Olympia.
Never in my life did I think Kai is this normal, I'm humbled. Real hero, simple dude...keep it up bro!!!
Bloody hell! He's a legend, so disciplined and educated, well spoken and humble. RESPECT

Have watched this at least 30 times no joke. Remains my favorite bodybuilding doc!
I truly appreciate that.
This made me respect Kai 100x even more
Probably the most important video ever made about bodybuilding. The message is so strong.

If I had an amazing body like that, it would be hard to resist showing it off every chance that I got. This guy was well covered when he went grocery shopping, so as to not call unnecessary attention to himself. I, truly, admire his humility. .

man the old school bodybuilding videos ( like these ) are such timeless gems, i compare it to now, modern bodybuilding, the content is just not the same, it was so much more real back in these days
Great tips one can apply them to life too!
Kevyn Thomas word is born.

Nothing spiritual about vanity and mental illness bro
I thought he was done cooking all that, then I saw him spray the pan again and I'm like wtf.
Hahahahahahaha bodybuilding....
And when he retires, he's like 'why am I 50 stone ?'
I'm here to scoop I'm not here to talk
What was the spray?
That's for pre packed meals not all at once
you recording this changed alot of peoples lives. I was a fat guy and in grade 7 I seen this video and his other series and started working out and it changed my life.
I never expected that kind of reaction when I was making this. I was just following an interesting athlete. The fact that this has been an inspiration for people over the years has been one of the best and most satisfying surprises of my life. Proud to be a small part of your journey.
Kai you are such a nice person .. hope you will win next Mr.Olympia .. Bodybuilders life is so much of sacrifice and dedication ..
All I have to say is I'm from Brooklyn, Brownsville and MUCH LOVE TO U KAI GREEN I am going through the same thing as we speak ,not knowing u already did it especially the dollars store part, lol that definitely made me tear with more motivation to continue my dream and i definitely see it clear now brother PEACE LOVE AND HAPPINESS TO U.
Apath eosis
Get after it bro!! Your comment started my day correct.. although I’m a month late. All good
Thx u but as long as u start brother and keep pushing forward no matter what, peace love and happiness to u
The discipline this man has is remarkable. So humble, so simple for the genius that he is.
I love this documentary. I come back to it for motivation regularly. The great thing is that what Kai says is applicable to any pursuit in life not just bodybuilding. My goals are different but I still consider Kai a master. And thanks to Mike for making the documentary so great. Fantastic work.
Thanks for your kind words!
That's the most informative and honest piece of information on bodybuilding I've seen in a long time.
Not just a top bodybuilder but also high class speeches just listen ..god bless i learn from him alot ☝
this documentary is still the gold standard. people still try to copy the magic you guys made with this. the only one I like as much as this is the one they did when kai went monk mode in the desert.
Thanks. You are so right. Even I haven't been able to top this since then. Sometimes things just come together in a magical way.
The monk in the desert video is OVERKILL, which I made too. You can watch it on my channel.

This thing about preparing for the next level applies for several aspects of our lives.
it certainly does!
The Devil was sitting over there and siad r u really gonna do cardio
He already did it at his kitchen. 😉
How can you not like Kai. He exudes great energy. What is saying applies to every discipline.
Omg, I gained even more respect for the Bodybuilding community after watching this video of the dedication and struggle these athletes put themselves through for their daily routines.
Kai your the man for me how you started with nothing and you never stopped trying and you made it love watching your videos on UA-cam thanks Kai
Thank you for the upload. Green is an amazing human being as well as an amazing bodybuilder. I hope that he gets what he asked for in life as he deserves it. A very humble and kind person spiritually amazing I love green very much and I love everything he represents I truly wish and hope only the best for him God bless you stay safe. Again thank you for the upload
"At the end of day you are the responsible for your goal " 👍💪 TRUE LEGEND
“Kai seems unfazed by the heat”
*Kais face drenched in sweat 😂
I love this dude man. Humble as ever. Still watching you in 2019!
he is only fazed by his grapefruit. check him out. giphy.com/gifs/don-knotts-BN4go0qT2xIn6
I’ve watched this several times. But he just amazes me of his desire, wisdom, and willing to push on. It’s really something to watch. Discipline is really something.
I agree .. self discipline is mastery
Kai is amazing body builder, ,and humble sportsman too
Me too, hmu
Phil Heath is amazing
Really he is a humble person
😊
@TheWelshy83 damn you sound miserable lol
Amazing. This stuff is really amongst the very best and I consider it already classic footage for the sport. Honestly, in the same league as Pumping Iron to a degree. I think pumping iron is the king and more broad... but this is world class documentary type stuff and Kai is so generous here with expertise and philosophy.
Being self-disciplined and very successful have always been the justified reasons to be arrogant in this world. Nothing expresses itself more vividly than the beautiful contrast of success and humility.
Clearly, Kai Greene is as much of an artist and a philosopher as he is a professional bodybuilder. I would like to know more about his philosophy about "wealth and humanity".
Don't know much about bodybuilding or this guy, BUT from what I just see in the video. This guy is a very humble and down to earth guy wish there was more guys like him including myself. Respect to this man
planned just to watch a sneak peak but ended up watchin the whole vid
Same though
