Bringing Awesome Back Goes Tammer Training Camp 2014

It's yet again time for another reportage. This time Bringing Awesome Back heads up north to Tammer Training Camp and Tammerpokalen. The man behind the camp is none other than our Swedish bodybuilding legend Anders Graneheim. Anders, and his family, put their heart and soul into this project each year. They create opportunities as well as friendship for many of the people who are lucky enough to visit Lögdö Herrgård. This is a reportage with heart. From Bringing Awesome Back with love!

Training Day Five Hundred Ninety Two

Had a day at my new work place for the summer. It's the last "get-to-know-your-work-place-day" before I get to try my wings for a month. This is actually only a temporary place, so I'm not going to get too used to this. I like the change of scenery for a while though. Oh, and by the way, don't forget to check back regularly for our upcoming Tammer Training Camp reportage. We head to Sundsvall on Wednesday evening.

I already did this joke once, didn't I?

# Workout Notes:
God damn it was hot during today's workout. And as if that wasn't enough, I had an enormous stress factor burdening me as I entered the gym. I know, I know, the gym is supposed to be a sanctuary. But today it wasn't. I'm not displeased, only lessened on the performance department.

Training Day Five Hundred Ninety One

Today we did something awesome. We booked our tickets for the 2014th Mr Olympia! Last year we had an amazing time in Las Vegas, staying at Caesars Palace. Not only did we cover the Olympia expo floor with a reportage, we also decided to get ourselves our very first tattoos, and, get engaged! I'm not sure how we'll be able to top that. But I guess 10 days at the Bellagio, as well as Mr Olympia celebrating 50 years, does help!

Vegas Baby! Vegas!

Training Day Five Hundred Ninety

It's the 4th of July, which shouldn't really mean much for us living in Sweden. For me it means two things; 1. my girlfriend's name is printed on the calendar (namndag!), and 2. a country that has brought my so much joy throughout the years celebrates its Independence Day. So, why not give a little bit of love?

A little bit of love sent from Sweden!

I'd say fairly good workout this time. However, there were a lot of things going on during the workout that kind of interrupted it. Perhaps that was a good thing, because I got some time to recuperate in-between the sets. It worked for now.

Cheat Day One Hundred Eleven

Today it's yet again time for another cheat day. Right now it's not really that important since I'm not 100% strict on my diet. I'm currently not close to any form defining goal. I am, however, 100% focused on getting my company running and being able to promote myself at upcoming expos and events. In any case, here's some of today's goodies!

More "clean" cheat days going on right now...
