And we danced! Big thanks, 15 000 views was cracked!




My entire body is pumped up right now. Always deciding to vary workouts I opted for a 1000 rep challenge to myself. Who doesn’t like a challenge, one that pushes the floor farther and then leaves a pile of your bodies tears to be mopped up. These tears of course are sweat. Tears of joy. Here is what today’s lactic acid adrenaline  rush of a workout entailed. 

  1. Bench Press (60 kg) – 100 reps
  2. Inverted Row (BW) – 100 reps
  3. Air Squiat (BW) – 100 reps
  4. Full Sit-up – 100 reps
  5. Standing Shoulder Press (30 kg) – 100 reps
  6. Ab Rollout – 100 reps
  7. Deadlift (60 kg) – 100 reps
  8. Pushups (BW) – 100 reps
  9. Barbell Curl (20 kg) – 100 reps
  10.  Barbell Extension (20 kg) – 100 reps


                                                = 1000 Reps of mayhem 

Instructions are to complete 100 reps of each exercise. Must finish 100 reps before moving to the next exercise. Do this all for time.  My time: 36 minutes


Onto something less serious, work. Every day I am thankful for the opportunity to do what I am doing. As the less than 0.01% of the world population to work the way I do. Sometimes it can be shitty, like a look book I had the other day with an asshole photographer/stylist. Fortunately those are few and far between.  This week I managed to work 4 jobs; a lookbook, a Burberry Event, L’Officiel Magazine shoot, and an incredibly fun Supersports shoot (remember Golferman?).


The casting for L’Officiel was a few weeks ago. This is a high end fashion magazine that seldom uses men. Written off I was shocked when I received a message from my booker at 12:30 am. The client had just contacted her (no rest for the wicked).  2pm the next day I was to shoot in the Penthouse of Sofitel Luxury Hotel.  3 shots and 45 minutes of shooting and I was done.  Great styling and an awesome photographer (good communication) make a big difference. There is a really cool shot of me checking my beard in the mirror after a shower.


I must say I quite like Supersports and they like me too. My build very much fits the athlete specs.  Golf, tennis, and football (no longer in north America so can’t call it soccer, were my sports of the day). Also it was great to work with other models. On set I can be a bit of a goofball and like to have fun, including dancing. Here are a few shots. 



Oh yeah and this is how I felt walking down sukhumvit the other morning:
