      If you haven't talked to your brother in years, then why start talking now??? If you want to talk to your brother just because you watched a video, then that's not love for your brother, its just a nostalgic feeling. If you really loved your brother you wouldn't need any video to motivate you.

      On a serious note, i was just like carlos, i stopped talking to my brother because we had a silly fight, i didn't go to his wedding, didn't go when he had his first child, and then years later i saw a documentary on discovery that showed two brother and sister separated when they were one year olds and then they meet after 40 years. So i got all emotional and decided to go and meet my brother, you know what happened, i travelled 1000 miles to meet my brother and not only did he not let me inside his home, but he didn't even come to the door to talk to me, his maid servant told me that he didn't want to meet me and asked me to leave.

      ​@@reliom9836 common misconception. golden ration and Fibonacci's number will make you undestand few things about PROPORTIONS. bigger people have longer body parts with an ability to put more muscle on, have a better levers while having the same angles as the shorter guys, which have shorter legs and arms, but less muscle mess to actually push and pull. Franco was a beast, thats why he could compete to the larger guys, regular short guy doenst have a chance.

    As a 60 year old body builder it’s the friendship more than the weights that secures you to another person and your community. They could’ve been fisherman or hunters but a great friendship can outlast any marriage, family, war or pandemic and it’s something that men need to look for in life. It only needs a single good strong honest friend to make you and keep you to the highest level of life standards. Find a friend, mate, buddy, be he friend, family or mentor and work to be the best man you can be. It’s a greater gift than almost anything.
