    Hey everyone! It’s Brian Khou aka “B” I shot and edited this video along with some of his other ones like the one with DLB/Kai Green, Hulk Smash and I Am The One.
    This day started off no different than the others. I arrived early, setup and hit record. Larry Wheels arrived and CT humbly went to greet him. That’s when over my monitoring headphones I hear “this will probably be my last video”…caught me by surprise.
    When I went to edit, it slowly crept in how this would be the last CT footage I’d ever edit, it was bitter sweet.
    Pop, I can’t tell you how grateful I am for this decade of experience. I’ll never forget how you broke bread with me even when you didn’t have much.
    Is CT really like this in person? YES (during training), but around children and his elders, he’s extremely kind and hyper aware. The cleaning ladies that take care of his gym…he’s overly-expressed his gratitude to them.
    Praise Kong!! He’s the one who put this together!
    CT you’ve inspired me, I’m an audience member as much as I’m a creator.
    With gratitude,
    -Brian “B” Khou

      Thanks for all your work. But i have a question, do you have any clue to what happened to the audio of this vid:
      CT Fletcher "A Deepest, Sincerest Fuck You" From the Archives Edited by Arash.
      i guess it was not edited by you, but it was one of my favorites videos, and the audio is ruined. Can something be done? Very much appreciated

    This man, CT Fletcher, saved my life when I randomly came across his video 10 years ago. I was unhappy and depressed, and nothing was going right. One night, I clicked on a video with the Hulk, and it was like he was talking directly to me, completely changing my life. I lost weight, fought my way back to school while working a full-time job, and righted every wrong I had ever made. I am currently a clinician because of the motivation from those videos and the ideology of ISYMFS!! I wish CT the best in his next endeavors.

    Man what a journey. Nobody will ever replicate that 2012-2018ish era of CZcams/IG fitness community. This dude was an integral part of all our lives for the past decade. I’m gonna miss him but damn am I glad to say that it happened and I got to be around to witness him. Those prime videos with hulk, Leroy Walker, o’hearn, big Rob, bulo, Mike rashid, big hurk, Kali, mark bell, the OG strength cartel etc etc were some of the best videos of my life (and I know I’m missing many). This was no different and a beautiful send off. Thank you to everyone involved in making this video. CT and his videos will live on forever.
    Edit: see below comment thread for more reminiscing lol. Damn I can’t believe how much I miss those days!

    First and foremost, CT, Unc thank you for everything. Thank you for the inspiration, motivation, courage, power, will, and dedication of heart and mind that were taken, learned and put into practice from you. I have learned to keep pushing on even when we get knocked down to our lowest low, dont give up and dont give in. You showed me and thousands if not millions of others around the world that no matter what the cards are that we are dealt we can still not only succeed but THRIVE in life. I grew up in Southern California and moved away but whenever i watch a video from CT i was brought right back to my roots for training, in a small garage in a little backyard in Covina, my friends and i called it the thunder dome, and we always had CT yelling "its still your mother f***ing set!" From then til now, 13 years later i still listen to you to get that pure unhindered raw motivation from the one and only myth, man, and legend. CT Fletcher. Much Love and nothing but the utmost respect for you Unc. Im still going to make it to your facility and get in some training and to shake your hand, the hand of a hero, the one true Superman.

      @kipjoewersauthor1402 Před 10 měsíci +1

      @@egroegartfart Thank you brother, first of all to be honest I am currently on one medication for my cholesterol but based on what my doctor said about my progress I should be off of it by next year. What I believe is also helping is first I have a pescatarian diet. I eat mostly fish and seafood, vegetables and fruit. Barely any chicken, and no red meat.
      When I started eating this way, the weight dropped off and my cholesterol greatly improved. Eating a ton of fruits and vegetables have been known to reverse bad cholesterol drastically.
      But let me be clear, you don’t have to give up red meat entirely, I chose to for health reasons, but I still eat chicken from time to time, and I have eaten goat meat especially when I go over to my mom and she cooks it for dinner (you eat what you mother makes for you…lol).
      However the amount of meat you eat should be greatly reduced. If you’re eating red meat every daily or every other day that maybe a problem, because although it is excellent protein to build muscle mass, it also has a lot of fat that clogs arteries.
      My suggestion if you are willing to try is to cut out meat and chicken for six months to a year if possible and see how you feel. And if you feel like eating meat again, reintroduce into your diet at small quantities, or like a treat like every weekend.
      I hope this helps, brother, good luck.

      @@egroegartfart One more thing, I know you’re against medication, but I would try at least one, if your doctor suggests it, it does help, and it does not mean you have to be on it forever. Now if he suggests more than one, that is when you say hell no, because the rest can be fixed with a proper diet and exercise. Again, good luck.

    CT, from the age of 24 to 31 you motivated me like NO OTHER, i used to watch your videos everyday all day before going to workout, i was with you i learned the base principles to use on my training routine till this day, you always will be the greatest of all time, you're a legend, and very few people can claim that, i wish you the best!

    "Don’t look for an easy way out. Nobody wants to work hard these days. Everybody wants the easy way - the 20 minute abs, the 10 minute this, the 10 minute that. … F**k that! Come to the gym. Work your ass off. Earn it. …
    They said: “You can’t do it. You’re going to die.” I said: “Well, I’d rather die doing what I love to do than sitting at home looking at TV.”
    I’m CT Fletcher: Six-time world champion, three-time world champion (drug free) bench presser, three-time world strict curl champion. …
    What happened (and it took until 2005 for my attitude to change and be humbled) was the fact that I had to have emergency open-heart surgery. I was rushed to the emergency room more times than I care remember. … I was 260 before the operation, so I lost 45-50 pounds just to try and not have the operation, but it didn’t work. I came out of that surgery weighing 190 pounds, looking like I never lifted weights in my life. I was a human skeleton. … It took me almost 2 years to recover. …
    I still want to go back and defend the unbroken 225 strict curl record. I’d like to do it at the age of 54 -be able to do what I did at the age of 30. I think that would be pretty cool to come back 24 years later and do the same thing at a much lighter body weight - and 24 years older. …
    20 minute abs, 20 minute calves, 20 minute butt, 20 minute any-f***ing-thing is a pile of bulls**t. If you see somebody with great abs, a great butt, a great whatever, they didn’t do the s**t in 20 minutes, and if they tell you they did, they are a f***ing liar. Trust me on that. No matter what, cause I hate complainers and I hate criers … if I could come in here with a metal valve implanted in my chest, taking 10 different medicines just to stay alive every day and do my workout, you have no excuses. So no matter what - your nose bleeds, it’s that time of the month, the kids are crying, you don’t feel like it, your back hurts, you got aches and pains - it’s still your mother-f****ng set. Let’s get it done.”

    Started watching this man 8 years ago and he was a huge inspiration and gave me so much motivation in the gym. I’m no crazy beast by any means but I def don’t think I would’ve got this far without this guy in my ear telling me to command my muscles to grow. Today near the end of my cut I sit at 172 with over 90lbs of muscle mass and 8% body fat. Thank u for all you’ve done in this community, Ik you’ve inspired many young men such as myself ❤️🙏🏾

      Just like BM...
      The powerlifters arn t taking cutting agents. They are not trying to achieve the aesethic look, they just care about the power
      Comes down to what your trying to achieve. Larry and brad are freaks but its unfair to compare when they were on cutting peds as well
      Larry has been super open about what he took. He was on a shit ton of gear , which also included cutting agents like winny and tren.

Coming across this one right here and seeing this will be your last one I just gotta say thank you for all the motivation over the years, helping fuel my drive, and giving me a reason to keep on training 💪🏾
